MMORPG: Crowd Control

The Ferold\'s Ring floated in the air for a brief moment before Francis Norton grabbed a hold of the ring.

His eyes were mesmerized by the sight of Ferold\'s Ring and a wave of nostalgia hit him.

"With this ring back, we can finally stabilize Yors Castle and increase the defense mechanism." Francis Norton said.

To fulfill the prophecy he had received in the past, he was forced to hand the Ferold\'s Ring away, causing Yors Castle to be in turmoil.

Although it was a difficult time period, everything was worth it in the end and they managed to find the person mentioned in the prophecy.

Thinking about this, Francis Norton\'s eyes turned glittery as he glanced at Lei Zhen smilingly.

Lei Zhen instantly felt a cold shiver running through his body, and subconsciously moved a little away from Francis Norton.

"Please don\'t use that kind of smile toward me," Lei Zhen said, waving his hand to echo for Kate to come over.

"What is it, Lei Zhen?" Kate walked over and asked.

"Does your father usually smile that creepy? I feel like he\'s cooking up some scheme."

"I don\'t think my father would harm you."

"Not that, I think he\'s trying to have me take up some tedious task." Lei Zhen shook his head.

His intuition was rarely wrong and currently, they are warning him to get away from Francis Norton\'s sight as soon as possible.

"Lei Zhen, please come to our treasure chamber so that I can reward you properly." Francis Norton suddenly said, his smile becoming wider.

Goosebumps appeared all over Lei Zhen\'s arms as he wanted to reject his invitation. Yet he couldn\'t find a proper excuse to reject it.

"Make sure to protect me well, Kate." Without a choice, Lei Zhen could only whisper to Kate for protection.

Although he was sure Francis Norton wouldn\'t harm him, he was definitely positive that Francis Norton was thinking of doing something similar akin to Robert Knightman\'s action.

There was no way he would allow another incident of being forced to accept some other tasks.

He had finally managed to complete the two-ongoing missions when the Ferold\'s Ring was extracted from his body.

However, he didn\'t have the opportunity yet to look at the new system prompt that had appeared.

"Rest assured, Lei Zhen. With me here, no one can do anything to you against your will." Kate patted her chest and reassured him.

Lei Zhen nodded his head.

"I\'ll count on you for my safety then."

Sometime later, the two of them followed Francis Norton.

Lei Zhen had his mask back on and along the way, he could feel intense glare from numerous guards, almost as if they were ready to devour him whole.

"No need to worry, Lei Zhen. They are the most elite of the elite guards and are extremely loyal to my father." Kate hurriedly explained the reason for their intense gaze.

"My daughter is right. You don\'t need to be afraid since you\'re coming with me under my order. If anyone dares to attack you, then they are disrespecting me." Francis Norton chuckled and entered the treasure room.

The royal palace\'s treasure room was a vast chamber, filled with all manner of priceless objects. The walls were lined with shelves and cabinets, overflowing with gold and silver coins, jewel-encrusted goblets, and glittering gemstones.

There were also stacks of ancient tomes and scrolls, their covers adorned with intricate patterns and symbols.

In addition, the room was guarded by a team of elite soldiers, dressed in ornate armor and carrying fearsome weapons.

They stood at attention along the walls, their eyes trained on the door, ready to defend the treasure at a moment\'s notice. The door to the treasure room was made of solid steel and was guarded by a series of intricate locks and security measures.

Only the most trusted members of the royal family were permitted access to the treasure room, and even they had to pass through multiple layers of security to enter.

pαndα`noνɐ1--сoМ Lei Zhen tried his best to control the emotions in his heart when he saw the countless treasures laid neatly on the shelves.

Every time he walked past a shelf and glanced at an item, a system prompt would appear, describing the item to him.

And his eyes nearly popped out when he saw the rarity of the item and its effect on it.

Unfortunately, most items aren\'t suitable for him or were simply too high-level for him to equip.

"Have an item caught your eye, Lei Zhen?" Kate asked from the side. She wasn\'t interested in the treasury at all since she had come here before.

Not to mention, she wasn\'t a materialistic woman compared to her two elder brothers.

Just when Lei Zhen wanted to reply, Francis Norton interrupted.

"Heh, how could Lei Zhen have eyes on those items at all? I think he would love this one the most." He said heartily, his hand holding a tome-like item. "You\'re right, King Francis Norton." Lei Zhen sounded as calm as possible, but inwardly, he was erupting in cheers.

That\'s right. The tome must definitely be the reward for assisting Kate.

\'Just hand it over to me and save me the unnecessary dialogue.\' Lei Zhen cursed in his mind as he listened to Francis Norton rambling about how the Tome was a national treasure.

If it was about the tome\'s description then it was fine, but it wasn\'t.

After what seemed to be a very long time, Francis Norton finally handed the Tome of Demise over to Lei Zhen.

"Thank you, King Francis Norton. I\'ll treat this item with care." Lei Zhen held the [Tome of Demise] in his hand and said.

He was brimmed with joy when he read the description and couldn\'t help but want to test the weapon out right away.

[Tome of Demise (Bound Item)
