Chapter 171: Chapter 128: Werewolf, Bloodline Power
Roy wasn’t intentionally showing off his wealth; he was just too lazy to calculate the cost of the meal and count out Silver Coins one by one.
Although he had just given Tony 100,000 Gold Coins in startup capital a while ago, he still had over 700,000 Gold Coins in Chaos Square.
"Thank you, milord!"
The waitress said respectfully, accepting the Gold Coin.
Then, she left, wearing a smile harder to suppress than an AK’s recoil.
Before long, the waitress brought over the signature dishes and ale Roy had ordered.
Roy wasted no time and immediately began to taste the dishes before him.
He hadn’t chosen the wrong tavern.
Although the tavern looked unremarkable from the outside, the constant stream of customers was proof enough that its food was something special.
Though made with common, ordinary ingredients, the dishes tasted excellent.
To put it simply...
With smaller portions, fine dinnerware, and professional plating, these dishes wouldn’t be out of place on the menu of a fine dining restaurant.
Just as Roy was happily enjoying his meal, a conversation from the next table caught his attention.
"Captain, are we really going to the Lost Cave?"
A brown-haired man in his early twenties asked the middle-aged man sitting across from him.
"I know what you’re worried about."
"The Lost Cave is certainly dangerous, but the Phoenix Knight’s inheritance is well worth the risk," the middle-aged man with the scar on his face replied swiftly.
’The Phoenix Knight’s inheritance?’
Hearing the middle-aged man, Roy’s brow furrowed slightly.
Though he had never met the Phoenix Knight, he knew of him.
’A Golden Great Knight!’
’To be precise, a Golden Great Knight from over two hundred years ago who cultivated the universal Perfect Breathing Technique, the Undead Bird Breathing Method!’
’Unlike the Laine Kingdom and Kalin Kingdom, which barely have any Silver Great Knights, the Sal Empire doesn’t just have Golden Great Knights—it has plenty of them.’
’If I remember correctly, the Sal Empire currently has a total of nine Golden Great Knights.’
’So this is the true might of the Eastern Continent’s foremost Empire!’
’This is it!’
As Roy recalled what he knew about the Phoenix Knight, the brown-haired man continued, "If the Phoenix Knight’s inheritance is really in there, then it’s certainly worth the risk."
"But the problem is, right now, no one’s sure if it’s true."
"Even if the Phoenix Knight’s tomb really is in there, it doesn’t mean his inheritance will be. Who the hell knows if he had the Breathing Technique Inheritance Map buried with him."
As soon as the brown-haired man finished, the scar-faced middle-aged man lowered his voice and whispered, "More than likely, it’s true."
"Both the Molten Beast Knight and the Gem Whale Knight have sent their own Silver Great Knights over."
"If the rumor was false, they definitely wouldn’t have sent anyone."
Although the middle-aged man had lowered his voice, to Roy, who possessed the Golden Deer’s Ear, his words were crystal clear.
’The Lost Cave, is it?’
’I’ll go check it out tomorrow!’
Roy quickly made up his mind.
He didn’t know for sure if the Phoenix Knight’s inheritance was truly in the Lost Cave, but he had time on his hands. He didn’t mind making a detour to take a look.
At worst, he would just be wasting a little time.
But if it was there, he could obtain a Perfect Breathing Technique once as renowned as the Red Dragon Breathing Technique.
After the Sun Flame Knight advanced to the rank of Legendary Knight, the Red Dragon Breathing Technique’s fame skyrocketed past other universal Perfect Breathing Techniques, becoming the most sought-after of them all.
Roy stopped listening to their conversation and went back to enjoying his meal.
After eating and drinking his fill, he left the tavern, found a nearby inn, and checked in.
After closing the door to his room, he entered Chaos Square without a moment’s hesitation.
He rested for a moment in the newly arranged lounge area, then began his nightly cultivation.
