Chapter 487: Chapter 19: Gathering

What appeared before him was a palace.

The palace was resplendent, with intricately carved beams and painted columns, its complex corridors and majestic halls intertwined with lush green plants suspended mid-air, resembling a sky garden, beautiful to the extreme.

As Lynch stepped down from the carriage, a middle-aged man dressed in formal attire approached with a friendly smile, offering his courtesy to Lynch: “Welcome, welcome. You must be the Saphieros Wizard from Feiyan City. Welcome to the Samorot Market, I am Morotes, the steward of the market.”

Lynch’s gaze landed on this middle-aged man, revealing a hint of surprise in his eyes.

The man did not conceal his spiritual power, and Lynch could clearly feel a strong aura emanating from him, certainly not lower than the Middle Stage of the Mystical Level.

Moreover…

He was followed by two attendants.

They were two strange humanoid creatures, two or three meters tall, with robust builds and crimson skin. Their bodies were covered with bulging muscles, and their faces were fiercely demonic with horns curved like those of a mountain goat, their feet were also like goat hooves.

’Hell Flame Demons…’

These two monsters were exactly like the bloodline embodiment Hell Flame Demons that Lynch had once contended with, belonging to Tarim of the Dark Moon Church, except they were much smaller in size, seemingly replicas made using Hell Flame Demons.

Even as replicas, these two beings emitted powerful auras, stronger than Tarim ever was, clearly utilizing the bloodline to a higher degree.

Well, well…

Even just the welcoming party is made of three beings not weaker than the Second Tier, this market has quite a background…

Lynch hurriedly said seriously: “Very pleased to meet you.”

“Hehehe.”

Morotes smiled politely, then spoke: “The VIP lounge is ready, let my people escort you there.”

With that, he lightly clapped his hands.

Then two young women walked over.

They looked about twenty years old, impeccable in both appearance and figure, with a pair of eyes resembling peach blossoms, seemingly able to capture one’s soul, and peculiarly, their eyes were purple.

With just one glance at them, Lynch could feel his blood boiling, with an uncontrollable surge of desire firing up in him.

’Enchanting Demons…’

Despite being unaware of these women’s origins, Lynch could tell by their innate spiritual allure that they were indeed enchanting demons from the legendary domains of old.

This ancient race, which once truly existed in the Wizard World during the Age of Gods, had faded into obscurity with the decline of that era. However, there were still quite a few descendants of enchanting demons in the world today, and even if these two were not enchanting demons themselves, they certainly had the bloodline, or were replicas made using the enchanting demon bloodline.

Lynch quickly gathered his thoughts and activated spiritual protection, only then did he barely resist the enchantment the enchanting demons exuded. This spiritual allure was indeed extraordinary, capable of eroding even his Second Tier level spirit, how it was achieved he did not know, but he definitely needed to get one to study someday.

Seeing Lynch’s attention linger on the enchanting demons, Morotes remarked: “These two attendants are gifts prepared by the market for esteemed guests like you, feel free to use them as you wish.”

Clearly, ’use’ here held a different connotation.

The two enchanting demons came forward, each holding onto Lynch’s arm, he instantly felt a softness press against him.

“Sir, let us escort you to the VIP lounge.”

Their voices were indescribably soft, resonating within the ears like a soothing balm, even with spiritual protection engaged, Lynch felt a tingling sensation as if his cells were electrified.

He silently decided that he indeed needed to get some of the bloodline for research…

Amazed, Lynch made up his mind.

Led by the two attendants, he walked down a long corridor and soon arrived at a grand hall.

It was an exceptionally spacious venue, divided into two tiers.

The lower tier housed the hall, with a stage at the forefront, rows of chairs fanned back from the stage. At this moment, most chairs were already occupied.

As Lynch’s Spiritual Sea scanned forward, he realized the guests in the hall were all above Wizard Level.

The gathering numbered at least one to two thousand people, which meant the hall alone housed a congregation of one to two thousand Official Wizards.

The second tier was even more extravagant.

An arched corridor stretched across the second tier, with several private rooms set on one side. As Lynch’s gaze swept across, he sensed each room holding spiritual fields not weaker than his own, indicating all these were beings above the Second Tier.

Around the venue, knights patrolled. Their bodies were enhanced with precise bloodline modifications, emitting a presence not weaker than High-level Wizards.

Moreover, within the surrounding shadows, Lynch could distinctly feel several gazes constantly overseeing the venue, these gaze owners were all Second Tier level, some even made him apprehensive.

In surprise, Lynch commented: “Is this the power of the Golden Carriage?”

“Hmm…”

The witch Nana approached, softly clarifying: “Although… But, this isn’t just the Golden Carriage, sir.”

“The Golden Carriage is merely one of Morotes’ partners; they mainly handle the outside markets and basic order, while the operations within this venue are mainly managed by the Clophes family, and all goods are auctioned by them.”

Lynch raised an eyebrow: “Clophes, as in the Clophes family from the Land of Freedom?”

The Clophes family, a widely renowned Wizard Family in the Wizard World.

Their influence was primarily concentrated in the Witch Domain known as the Land of Freedom, ranked among the top ten Wizard Families.

On the surface, it resembled a force from the Land of Freedom, but their reach extended throughout the Wizard World, visible in every Witch Domain, even capable of directly influencing some, akin to a giant entity within the Wizard World.

Nana nodded: “Yes, precisely that Clophes.”

Lynch raised an eyebrow.

The Clophes Wizard Family had always sought to extend their reach throughout the Wizard World to ultimately control it, yet there was still a single area they had never managed to involve themselves in at all—

Fran.
