Chapter 86
The Immemorial Forest was very big . The closer the border was, the bigger the trails in the forest were getting .
Judging by the wood-cutting traces on the road side, the Druid would probably be in pain, but Lei felt very comfortable .
Because this meant he was about to leave this boundless vast forest and once again come back to
human society!
Yet, there was a so-called saying that went ‘Never mistake a clear view for short distance’ . In the
morning, they clearly felt that they were close to the edge of the forest, but it was long until the sun set in the west that they officially left the forest and saw a city which was built adjacent to it .
This was not a big city, but it was surrounded by very high walls . In the center of the city laid
outstanding architecture, which was a landmark . It suddenly rose from the ground towering majestically
over the landscape . It was twice as tall as other architectures, and was like a giant standing among a
crowd, looking down on the commoners .
That was a magic tower, the accommodation for advanced shamans, also their important
stronghold, their library, their scientific research center, their inheritance place, and their last burial
place .
“Phew! Finally, I’ve gotten out of the forest!” Seeing this tall magic tower, Lei couldn’t help but
Exclaim and smilingly said, “The characteristic of the city in the Mystique Tower Federation is very clear .
Each city is surrounded with the magic tower’s construction . Therefore, seeing the magic tower means
one has arrived in the city . With a glance, one would see it clearly . “
“It is probably a good choice to build a city like this . ” Sui Xiong said, “Inside the magic tower,
many advanced shamans stay who could protect the city residents . And the existence of the city
residents also help the city become prosperous, which make the living conditions of the shamans better,
and fosters a better mental state to concentrate on researching . “
“It is indeed built like this . Therefore, although the Mystique Tower Federation has just been established
for less than a thousand years, it has become the magic research center of the Main surface . Even
though there are many seniors still attaching the “a shaman should stay away from the mortal world”
tradition, looking on the profiting life styles of these shamans, many youngsters have soon considered
this place as the Holy Land of the shaman . Every year, there will be many people from different places
coming here with the hope of having a chance to step into this profound magic industry, becoming a
mighty mystic shaman . “
“Did you come here that year?” Sui Xiong asked .
Lei was silent for a while, then nodded .
“So, do you have acquaintances here?” Sui Xiong asked again .
“Probably not . ” Lei lowered his voice to say, ” . . . . After that event, they would probably get involved
too . Being able to keep living their lives is already good for them– — but not recognizing me is actually
the best . “
“Don’t worry, no one will recognize you . Don’t forget that your face has been completely changed . “
Lei nodded, and forced a smiled, but his face looked kind of sad .
Every time he recalled old stories, he would be sad for a long time .

When seeing Lei downcast, Stelle would praise him ceaselessly . According to
what she said, “Although I can’t eat you, I have to admit that you are indeed
exceedingly handsome when you are sad! There isn’t any kind of normal down and out
feeling from you, but on the contrary, you exude a prestigious temperament, which is really a majestic
Prince in the knight legends– — — — ah, apparently you are really a Prince, although your inheritance
right might have been taken already . . . “
As a result of these words, Lei was outraged, bringing a firewood and beating her
up . Although he normally didn’t hit women, these words had angered Lei . If
she dared to insult him, then he would not be merciful toward her .
The little pink pig flapped its wings, flew around Lei to enjoy the rare “melancholy prince’ from
different angles .
Sui Xiong thought if Stelle were to live on Earth, right now, she would have taken out her mobile phone
and snapped countless pictures .
There were naturally guards at the city gate . These guards were fully dressed in shiny armor, equipped
with long swords, and long halberds . Each one of them was sturdy and tall, and full of energy . At first
glance, one would know they were elites . The assigned clerk worked very responsibly . First, he
welcomed them to the Green Tree city, then meticulously asked about Lei’s identity, at the same time
registering him .
“Does everyone need to register?” Sui Xiong curiously asked, “Doesn’t it waste a lot of time?”
This clerk was about forty years old . He slightly pushed up the round glasses on his nose and smilingly
said, “Of course, everyone needs to register . In reality, I remember all the city residents in this Green
Tree city . Only those I don’t know need to register . “
“Your eyes are not wrong!” Sui Xiong said enthusiastically, “Many people judge others by appearance .
But you are not like that . No wonder you are entrusted with such a heavy responsibility!”
“That’s right, seeing a floating jellyfish and a pig that knows to fly . Having two devil pets like this, you
must not be ordinary people!”
If it weren’t for Lei’s left hand grabbing Sui Xiong and his right hand pulling Stelle, holding them back,
this clerk with an excellent memory might have been beaten down to the ground, and his face might
have been imprinted with several pig trotter marks .
“What is with devil pets?!” It was long until they finished settling down in the hotel, and Sui Xiong was
still angry and discontented, “This man’s eyes are completely blind! He dared to rank a strong, mighty
man like me as a low-level kind like devil pets?!”
‘Suo ha! Suo ha! Luo muo niu dou bo lou sou!” “That’s right! That’s right! He couldn’t even recognize a
beautiful woman!” Stelle also criticized him angrily, took out a wood log, quickly wrote countless
criticisms, and labeled the clerk as worthless .
On one hand, Lei tried to hold back as he almost burst out in laughter . On the other hand, he had to
comforted these two . It indeed was a little difficult for him .
Luckily, these two didn’t have good memories . Their anger came fast but also left fast– — — looking from

this aspect, in fact, Sui Xiong and Stelle’s personalities suited each other really well despite the huge
difference in their system of values– -After a while, Sui Xiong had already urged Lei to go out and try
the culinary delicacy of the shaman country . At the same time, Stelle also expressed her desire to want
to see if this place had any amusing specialty as she wanted to buy some of them to play .
They were not rich, but absolutely not poor either . As an adventurer who was just a few steps
away from the Legendary realm, as well as a lonesome thief, the assets of Lei were extremely abundant .
Although before, to seize the crystal containing the god power of the Life Goddess, he had
already used up more than half of his assets . The remaining assets of his were enough for a normal
person to live an abundant and stable life for several decades .
During the time they were adventuring, the amount of assets they had acquired was also no joke . If not
including the evil dragon they had conquered and other mighty devil beasts that they had hunted along
the way, then they already had a frightening amount of wealth .
Not to mention others, the venomous snake which was used as the research base for the alchemy grand
master – Wendy for sure had to have lived more than 450 years, maybe close to 500 years, which was
already a stunning wealth . At first glance, it might not be anything but– — the evil dragon “brutal
incinerator” – Yushes Clyde which massacred ruthlessly in the mortal world had already lived more
than a thousand years– — — if really considering its race, this number would be very scary .
Wendy had carefully studied and found that the snake was in fact just a normal type . Under normal
circumstances, living up to thirty years had also been considered living long . Living until fifty years old
was considered lucky among snakes . But this snake had already live more than ten times those fifty
years . In comparison to humans, the average life expectancy was more than fifty years old . Among the
long-lived ones that were eighty or ninety years old, the freaky old man who lived up to a thousand
years showed up out of nowhere!
The protection of the human right in this world was far inferior than that on Earth . If a thousand-year-
old man appeared he might be likely chopped up for research– -just like that snake .
Then how much did a part of valuable research material cost? Everyone had different opinions about
that . According to Wendy, it wasn’t bad research material, suitable to kill times of boredom in the
magic tower . Maybe according to Stelle, a treasure that helps the nobility and the rich prolong their life
expectancies was indeed priceless . Maybe according to Lei, a toy that could help those old bastards who
had been rotten to the bone live several years should have been smashed into pieces . . . But one
thing could be guaranteed was that it was a precious treasure .
In these times of tramping through thick and thin, they had acquired many similar things as well .
Therefore, when they strolled down the street with a pocket full of money, they were very excited .
They came to a restaurant first . But they were stopped at the door when they wanted to enter the most
luxurious restaurant in the Green Tree city . The gate-keeping guard said that this restaurant only
accepted properly-dressed guests; it didn’t allow pets inside either .
“What if this is an honorable shaman?” Lei asked as he didn’t believe that the shaman wouldn’t be
allowed this privilege in this country of shamans .
“It is the same for a shaman . The shaman has to dress in shaman formal attire, keep the pets in a
specialized space bag, or temporarily cancel the summoning . This is the regulation . ” The guard had a
sturdy and tall body, and a handsome face . At first glance, he looked more like a fashion model than a
gate-keeping guard . He didn’t hesitate but said, “After many years, this regulation has never been
changed!”
He sounded very certain .
Lei furrowed his brows . His experience told him that the backing behind this restaurant was up to high
standards, very deep-rooted . He thought that there was no need to make a fuss here, but instead,
leaving was the correct choice .
But Sui Xiong didn’t want to leave like this and tried to negotiate a little more, “Why do you think I am a
pet? We don’t have pets here . We are just adventurers with different races . “
“The low-level creatures are not allowed to step in . ” The handsome guard didn’t show any intention of
compromising . On the contrary, his tone was more caustic and spiteful, “All of you can come in, it is
just that . . . A jellyfish can talk and a pig can fly . Two of you can be made into a jellyfish salad and roasted
pork . Those two can be special dishes . “
“We don’t want to make a fuss . ” Lei sighed, he was thinking that it seemed inevitable they would have a fight .
“Why is he making a fuss . . . Giving a price . This jellyfish and pig are not bad . Buying them to make a
delicious dish is indeed not a bad idea . ” The smile of the handsome guard looked more evil . His eyes
became colder and colder .
Seemed like no matter what Sui Xiong chose, this guy appeared to want to fight .
But Sui Xiong also didn’t make a move, he just coldly laughed, “Formal attire? Doesn’t allow pets? Really
simple!”
After saying this, he swung up his tentacles . A blue light covered Lei and Stelle . When the light dissolved,
a poor adventurer and a pig now turned into a handsome man and a beautiful woman in luxurious
attire .
After that, Sui Xiong quickly transformed himself into a super burly chap eight feet tall and eight feet
wide . Although he was wearing gorgeous attire, he was big enough to make people have nightmares .
“Like this, do we meet the requirement?” The burly chap, who couldn’t be verified if he was a human or
not, spoke in a low muffled voice . Although he was asking, his tone didn’t have the slightest hint of
inquiring, but on the other hand, was seeking trouble .
Using kindness to treat kindness, using evil intention to treat evil intention . Until now, elder brother
Xiong is no longer a coward who could restrain his anger when being bullied!
