“Master Atlas Serrano, you seem to have lost your composure in front of the new City Lord?” Hearing this, Mason Banks’ face turned cold, and he immediately let out a cold snort.

Looking at the shocked old man below, Leo Ray waved his hand to signal Mason Banks not to embarrass the other party and continued to maintain a smile on his face, looking down at the crowd.

Without a doubt, this old man was the Tier 2 Four-Star Druid known as the third-best healer in Cyan Town.

At that time, although he was just a bystander, he had joined the others in jeering and mocking Leo Ray.

But it was precisely because of his judgment that Leo Ray was able to totally hide his strength, escape in time, and eventually lower the wariness of the City Lord and his party to the lowest level.

“From this perspective, he is a friend who helps without being asked.”

Just as Leo Ray thought about this with mixed feelings,

The Druid called Atlas Serrano quickly saluted Leo Ray and said, “My lord, I was too hasty during that time. Please forgive me!”

At this moment, Atlas Serrano’s mind was filled with surging waves, and countless thoughts raced through his head.

He never expected that the stranger he didn’t care for back then, who he thought was just lucky, was hiding such terrifying strength.

It was undeniable that with Leo Ray’s strength, he could have easily killed everyone present at that time!

However, this young man chose the most low-key approach. “It’s not easy for someone to achieve this.”

Thinking about it, Atlas Serrano couldn’t help but sigh in his heart.

However, recalling the Blood Scorpion Mercenary Corps and powerful mercenaries like Cuttlebone, who were once arrogant and domineering, and their current miserable ends,

Atlas Serrano’s old forehead couldn’t help but break out in beads of sweat as his scalp started to tingle.

Although Leo Ray did not take action at that time, his decisive methods once the opportunity presented itself could only be described as ruthless. “It’s not that he doesn’t retaliate, but he repays every grudge.”

Thinking of this, Atlas Serrano looked up at Leo Ray seated in the highest position and the reverence on his face was clear for all to see.

At the same time, the other mercenaries who were present a the time also showed the same expression, their mouths wide open, obviously shocked in their hearts.

On the other side, Leo Ray’s face still maintained a calm expression.

He smiled at the old Druid and said, “Old Mr. Atlas Serrano, you are too serious.

If it weren’t for you at that time, I’m afraid we wouldn’t have left so easily.”

After finishing his words, Leo Ray summoned a Tier 3 Magic Staff in his hand, which flashed with a strange light. This was one of the spoils of war he obtained yesterday, and he still had 17 more.

Leo Ray handed the Magic Wand to Mason Banks and motioned for him to give it to Atlas Serrano, then said, “This wand is called the Rod of Truth, it’s a Tier 3 weapon. Consider it as a token of my gratitude.”

“This?!” Taking the staff from Mason Banks’ hand, Atlas Serrano’s face showed a look of disbelief, and his old body trembled slightly.

This young man not only did not get angry for the previous incident but even rewarded him with a coveted Tier 3 weapon!

One should know that a Tier 3 weapon of their own was a goal many mercenaries strived for throughout their lives!

“I didn’t expect that my lifelong wish would be fulfilled like this…”

Looking at the Tier 3 Magic Staff in his hand, which emitted a strange light, Atlas Serrano was too excited to speak and could only bow deeply to Leo Ray again.

At this time, the other mercenaries who were not present at that time had also learned the ins and outs of the matter and couldn’t help but cast respectful gazes at Leo Ray.

Nodding slightly, Leo Ray continued, “From now on, there will be no more scum like Cuttlebone and others appearing in Cyan Town. Everyone here will be treated the same in my eyes.

If any mercenary corps makes a significant contribution to Cyan Town, I will reward them with more incentives than you can imagine.

But if any mercenary corps plots anything nefarious, I believe you all have seen what happened to the Blood Scorpion Mercenary Corps, right?”

With that, Leo Ray paused for a moment, then looked down at the people and continued, “Lastly, to show my respect and joy in getting to know you all,

Within the next three months, the City Lord Mansion will provide extra subsidies ranging from 1 to 10 Gold Dragons for each mission you undertake, which will be settled together with the commission.

At that time, the specific details will be sent to the Mercenary Guild in the city, so please just focus on your work.”

Hearing Leo Ray’s words, the mercenaries all showed a smile of happiness.

Without a doubt, with this arrangement, everyone’s income would surely see a significant increase!

“Thank you, City Lord!” Immediately after, everyone knelt on one knee and respectfully saluted Leo Ray.

Among them, several mercenaries even showed undisguised gratitude towards Leo Ray, as they were Hannah Shawn’s companions from the same mercenary corps.

Although Hannah did not attend today, the news of Leo Ray saving her twice had spread, and it was an incredible honor to have the attention of this young man twice!

And so, after these mercenaries left, Kombu and the other merchant representatives entered the hall.

“I am Kombu, the President of the Cyan Town Commerce Association, here with five other merchant representatives to pay our respects to…”

Just as he stepped into the hall, the chubby Kombu immediately began to speak with a smile on his face.

However, when he saw that Leo Ray was the one seated on the throne, his greasy face instantly showed a surprised expression and blurted out, “My lord, it’s you?!”

“President Kombu, I told you we’d meet again soon.”

Smiling slightly, Leo Ray gestured for Kombu and others to dispense with formalities and replied, “I have already instructed that the tax on merchants in Cyan Town will be restored to normal levels from now on.

And a series of preferential measures will be gradually introduced, hoping you can contribute to the development of Cyan Town. ”

“Thank you very much, City Lord!”

On the other side, Kombu exchanged glances with a few other merchants, and they all saw a trace of unrestrainable joy in each other’s eyes.

In the meantime, Kombu’s face also showed a mixture of surprise and joy. “It turns out that the little business the young man mentioned before was actually taking over Cyan Town…”

Originally, Kombu thought Leo Ray was just an ordinary scion of the aristocratic families, but it turned out he was such a powerful figure!

“It seems I’ve really grabbed on to a strong thigh.”

After the excitement, and after discussing some business-related topics with

Leo Ray, Kombu suddenly remembered something and respectfully said to Leo

Ray, “By the way, my lord, concerning the Magic Medicine clue you asked me to find, I have news now!”
