Chapter 1572: Chapter 542: Empire Treasury_2

He was trying his best to avoid others mistaking him for having a Multi-Headed Dragon bloodline, but this time, his special ability ’Three Heads’ actually advanced to ’Multi-Headed’.

”Forget it, increasing combat power is the most important thing, the rest can wait,” Rein thought briefly and stopped dwelling on the matter.

After all, at his current power level, unless facing a Divine Incarnation or some unknown awakened giant, very few enemies could force him to use the Multi-Headed special ability in his Extremely Old Dragon form.

Moreover, this special ability also allowed him to perform powerful joint attacks similar to those that only multiple giant dragons could execute together, like the previous Red Dragon Secret Technique—’Molten Core Flame.’

That required three Red Dragons of Extremely Old Dragon Level to combine their powers to unleash such a formidable attack.

Last time, he could only obtain this ability temporarily after Menia performed the ’Dragon Blood Sacrifice’, but now, he could maintain this ability for a long time.

....

When Rein transformed back into his human form and slowly stepped out from the smoke and dust.

On the other side, the Second Prince, Everton, who had completely erased the chamber, also approached Rein with a sullen face.

As the two were about to confront each other head-on, several Royal Family Elders descended from the sky, led by none other than Elder Ivan.

Elder Ivan, with a solemn expression, stepped forward and said:

”Second Prince, Lord Rein, both of you hold esteemed positions; shall we let this matter rest for now?”

”Elder Ivan, I have no objections,” Rein said, feeling joyous after rescuing Anna’s mother, Darien Yueling.

Additionally, the underhanded dealings of the Second Prince, Everton, ultimately benefited him, making him feel even better.

Furthermore, considering Menia, Rein decided not to further pursue matters with the Second Prince in front of him.

After all, from another perspective, he could be considered the other party’s... ’Great-Uncle’!

Alright!

Thinking about it like this, he couldn’t help but feel a bit ashamed; after all, how old was he, and he already had a nephew older than himself!

Of course, if the other party continued to be unreasonable, that would be a different story.

”Don’t get complacent! Do you think using experimental subjects can hide the nature of your Multi-Headed Dragon bloodline? This matter will come to light eventually!” Second Prince Everton stepped forward, suppressing his anger, and glared fiercely at Rein, speaking in a low voice.

”Then why don’t you ask around?” Rein smiled and looked around the room.

”You!!” Everton, seeing the scrutinizing looks from the crowd directed at him, couldn’t help but grow more agitated!

After speaking, Rein strode past Everton and went to greet Elder Ivan and the others.

...

Remaining in place, Everton began to calm down and quickly reflected on the whole matter.

After much thought, he turned with a sinister expression and asked Buchanan beside him:

”Buchanan, how did Rein find out about the location of the spatial node?”

”This... logically speaking, there’s absolutely no way he could have discovered it. Your Highness, I’ve never allowed anyone near that position, even for some special items, I personally moved them after the servants delivered them to the warehouse.”

Facing the Second Prince’s skeptical gaze, Buchanan instantly broke into a cold sweat on his forehead and replied immediately, bowing.

”Forget it, we’ll discuss this later. Go to the Imperial City Manor quickly and have them activate the backup Witch Array; I want to know the extent of the losses.”

”At once, Your Highness.”

...

A few minutes later.

Rein was back inside the carriage compartment.

”Rei... Lord Rein, you just went to...” The commotion outside was so loud that Olena, sitting inside the carriage compartment, naturally saw and heard it.

At this moment, her expression was still somewhat unnatural, as if she hadn’t fully recovered.

”Haha, I went to do something I’ve been wanting to do for a long time but hadn’t done yet.”

”By the way, Olena, we need to return to the residence first; can we go to the Empire Treasury in an hour?”

”Of course.” Speaking about specific tasks, Olena quickly regained her professional demeanor, nodded, and said.

Before heading to the Empire Treasury, Rein needed to properly arrange for the dozens of elf women, including Anna’s mother.

He had considered escorting them to Ferdinand Forest, but after some thought, he decided to notify the elf ambassador stationed in the Imperial City first to contact Ferdinand Forest.

Meanwhile, he planned to contact the masters from the Royal Alchemist Association to help stabilize the elves’ condition, ensuring that when Anna reunited with her mother, it wouldn’t be too distressing.

...

At that moment, the people in the residence were naturally shocked at the sudden arrival of over twenty somewhat dazed elf women.

However, both the beautiful woman Jennifer and the barbarian girl Lagaray knew of Anna’s existence, and immediately made some connections.

When Rein returned to the residence, Jennifer had already instructed the maids to perform simple cleaning for the elves.

Shortly thereafter, the Royal Alchemist Association dispatched two Potion Masters for diagnostics, quickly confirming that the elves were merely affected by prolonged use of Sleeping Potion. Once the potion was discontinued and supplemented with Healing Potions, they would gradually return to normal.

After everything was settled, Rein and Olena set off again for the Empire Treasury.

Inner Ring of the Imperial City.

Empire Treasury Entrance.

This grand structure resembling a temple appeared to be only three stories high but occupied a substantial area. The exterior walls were made of grayish-white marble, exuding a majestic and grand atmosphere.
