His eyes were like the reflection of the starry sky.
Under the pair of eyes, all Gregori felt was insignificant and lowly.
Even the secret technique that was' planted 'in his heart became insignificant at this moment.
The secret technique that Gregori thought was like a pillar that could reach the heavens shattered instantly under the gaze of the pair of eyes.
Bang!
A loud bang came from Gregori's body, his body wobbled a few times before he spat out a mouthful of blood.
However, this mouthful of blood did not hurt Gregori in the slightest. Instead, his entire body felt comfortable, and an unprecedented sense of ease appeared on his body.
"Thank you, my lord."
Gregori knelt down on one knee and swore his loyalty to Kieran.
Under [Mesly Ring]'s effect, Gregori was controlled by Kieran with the slightest resistance.
His resistance was very weak, very weak.
But it was enough to catch Kieran's attention.
"Using secret techniques to control others?"
Kieran guessed.
Kieran wasn't surprised though.
Similar to how he habitually used [Mesly Ring] to control those untrustworthy natives, what concerned Kieran was that his resistance was too weak.
It didn't seem like Broker's work at all.
Based on Kieran's understanding of Broker, even if he couldn't resist, he would definitely set up some troublesome situations or even kill him.
But now?
Kieran's eyes glanced back and forth between Gregori and the passageway of the secret bazaar.
The secret bazaar and Broker's plan in Shatterstone Town came up in his mind again.
"As expected …
"The biggest trap should be here."
Kieran's eyes looked into the darkness of the passageway.
SSS + Intuition allowed him to easily see through the darkness.
He saw the neatly arranged buildings and the guards who were at a loss of what to do.
However, that deep and uncomfortable aura had disappeared at some point.
Or more precisely, it had hidden itself.
"Deception?"
Kieran muttered in his heart before asking Gregori, "What is underground?"
"Underground?"
"It's a secret bazaar and a laboratory set up by Modi."
"I'm in charge of the secret bazaar, but only 'Modi' can enter and exit the laboratory. I don't know what's inside."
Gregori said honestly.
Obviously, Gregori didn't know the truth either.
Kieran was silent for a moment. He pointed at the guards who were pacing around the secret passage and asked, "Do those people obey you or 'Modi'?"
"They are all people that I took in and are loyal to me. Before this, I was under Modi's command."
"Besides, even if they want to be loyal to 'Modi', 'Modi' won't take a fancy to them."
"Modi once said that he doesn't want his men to be useless."
Gregori replied.
"Very good."
"Get them to move all the valuable items up here."
Kieran ordered.
Gregori nodded and went to work.
Just like what Gregori said.
These guards obeyed his orders.
Although they were a little hesitant, Gregori's scolding made them move obediently.
"My lord, my lord!"
"Don't you want to go down and check it yourself?"
"That laboratory that only 'Modi' can enter must have something good inside."
Old Peeker, who climbed out from the crevice of the hill, suggested to Kieran with a smile despite his dirty face.
"You want to go?"
"Then you go check it out for me."
Kieran didn't even bat an eye at Old Peeker.
"Really?"
Old Peeker's body almost couldn't control itself as he walked towards the secret bazaar when he was faced with the sudden surprise.
However, the experienced hotel owner who had seen a lot of people didn't really get overwhelmed by the joy. After taking two steps forward, Old Peeker forced himself to a halt.
Old Peeker turned around and sized up Kieran with a doubtful gaze.
He was hoping to see something from Kieran's expression.
In the end, other than calmness, there was nothing.
Old Peeker recalled everything that happened after he met Kieran. It seemed like Kieran didn't show much expression and didn't care about anything.
No, that wasn't right!
Kieran still cared about the spoils of war.
Those bastards didn't even forget to let Volgen bring them back.
It was the same before Kieran's eyes!
Gregori and his men were moving the spoils of war.
Then why wasn't Kieran interested in the most valuable laboratory?
Old Peeker pondered.
He wasn't narcissistic enough to think that he was Kieran's right-hand man, that was why Kieran gave him such an important mission.
If he was Kieran's right-hand man, the busy Gregori was more like it.
It wasn't the first time Old Peeker saw Kieran's loyalty, he had seen it on Mayor Holler before.
Old Peeker didn't know how Kieran did it.
But Old Peeker knew he wasn't that important in Kieran's eyes.
The reason why he was brought here, other than Kieran needing a guide, was to be used as a pathfinder in times of need?
When the thought bloomed in Old Peeker's mind, the hotel owner's steps forward were heavy but his steps back were like fire.
He jumped back to Kieran's side.
"My lord, I don't think I am qualified for such a mission.
"You can choose Sir Gregori."
His strength far surpasses me, he can handle any danger that might come his way. "
Old Peeker lowered his head and licked his face, trying his best to show his humble side.
Fortunately for Old Peeker, Kieran didn't force him, all he did was stand there quietly.
"My lord, you must be tired from standing, do you need a place to hide?"
In order to make himself more useful in Kieran's eyes, Old Peeker didn't even wait for Kieran's reply and moved a small wooden box from the pile of supplies further away. At the same time, he used a couple of poles to hold up a piece of tarpaulin.
After Kieran sat down, Old Peeker took out a thin piece of wooden board and started to fan Kieran.
His actions made the guards of the former bazaar frown when they saw them moving the spoils of war, their faces were filled with disgust and disgust.
However, Old Peeker was enjoying the hardship.
For a person like Old Peeker, staying alive was more important than anything else.
Even more so, he was facing a powerhouse like Kieran, Old Peeker knew very well what kind of benefits he could get from a powerhouse like Kieran.
So, Old Peeker completely ignored the gazes around him, he put on a smile and diligently fanned Kieran.
Until Kieran turned his head further away.
"My lord, what's wrong?
What do you need?
"Please don't hesitate to order me, I will definitely help you achieve it."
The enemy that I've been waiting for is here.
You want to help me deal with him? "
Old Peeker was displaying everything that a loyal servant should have but soon, following Kieran's words, Old Peeker crawled aside in fear.
"My lord, fighting isn't my forte.
I'll wave the flag and cheer for you from the side! "
Old Peeker then shrunk back into the crevice of the rocks, not even daring to show his head.
Gregori wanted to bring his men over to join the battle but was stopped by Kieran with a wave of his hand.
"Continue being the truth."
Kieran said.
Gregori, who was a hundred percent obedient, carried out the order right away. His men, however, looked a little hesitant and confused.
'Didn't they say the enemy is here?
Why are they still sitting there without moving?
Are they waiting for the enemy to attack? '
Doubts rose in their hearts.
But right away, the doubtful men widened their eyes.
Each of them looked further away, showing an inconceivable expression.
Hundreds and thousands of wolves formed a pack and surged over like a tidal wave.
"Wolves!
Wolf pack! "
One of the guards couldn't help but cry out in shock.
More of the guards were trembling, trying to find a place to hide.
No one knew how scary a wolf pack was in the wilderness more than the guards who made a living around Supreme Road, let alone this unimaginable number.
Even Gregori couldn't hold back his shock.
Sobbing and praying came from the spot where Old Peeker was hiding.
The wolf pack was getting closer.
Gregori drew his sword and stood in front of Kieran.
Although Gregori was afraid of being controlled, he was more concerned about Kieran's safety.
The rest of the guards had all gone into hiding.
The bolder ones gripped their weapons tightly and peeked at the incoming beasts through the gaps.
When they saw Gregori daring enough to draw his sword in front of the wolf pack, their eyes showed a sense of admiration. But when they saw Kieran sitting there without moving, they were even more confused.
But soon enough, the confusion turned into shock.
