The next day, outside the Magical Beasts Mountain Range, sparse voices rang out. It was a small team of soul masters traversing through the forest.

"Damn it, that bastard Ryan actually ran back to the capital on his own. He wants us to check out the abnormal changes in the mountain range."

"His life is his life, but ours don't belong to him, right?"

The leader of the soul masters cursed. This person was the general manager of the Karndixu family. The soul master under Ryan had mid-tier four-star power.

"Who asked him to be the descendant of the Karndixu Family? If you ask me, our Lord Watt's four-star strength is much more qualified than his to be the general manager."

The Karndixu family had branches in almost every region. Ryan, who had escaped before, was the general manager of the external affairs of the Karndixu family in Linshan City. He was responsible for conveying the message from the headquarters of the Karndixu family, it was also the stubbornness of the Cavendish family from the Cavendish town. He was in charge of all the forces of the Cavendish family within Linshan City's jurisdiction.

And Maka town belonged to Linshan City's jurisdiction.

As for Watt, he had the strength of a four-star mid-tier. His weapon was a battle axe. As the head of the Cavendish Family's mercenary in Linshan City, he was under Ryan's control.

As for Ryan, who was only a two-star mercenary and had used a lot of resources to accumulate his strength, Watt had long held grudges against him.

However, there was nothing he could do. His personal guard was right. Who asked Ryan to have the bloodline of the Cavendish family flowing in his body?

Although it was only a branch, it was enough to show off his power in Linshan City.

Sweeping away the thoughts that troubled him, Watt raised his head to look at the thunderclouds above his head. The terrifying pressure emitted by the thunderclouds made his heart shudder.

They had been ordered to enter the mountain this time to investigate the cause of the thunderclouds and to retrieve the magical beast samples that had been tested in the Magical Beasts Mountain Range.

The Cavendish family wanted to conduct experiments using magical beasts to produce a potion that could double the strength of a soul master for a short period of time.

However, when they were experimenting in the mountain range, the magic beasts that had eaten the meat mixed with the potion became violent. The magic beasts that were affected by the potion became restless because the guards of the Cavendish family were not strong enough to put up a fight against them, and as such they had to temporarily leave the mountain range.

The magic beasts that had eaten the potion were very important to the Cavendish family. That was why they sent Watt to collect the samples.

"Damn it, the benefits are all for Ryan alone. And he left the cleaning up to us."

Watt was furious. And that what's-his-name.

It seemed that the good-for-nothing soul master called Copperfield hadn't left the mountain range of magical beasts under such circumstances. According to the Cavendish Family guards' observation, no one had entered or left the mountain range recently. As for the other entrances and exits of the mountain range...

Given that good-for-nothing's strength, he definitely wouldn't be able to pass through.

Such a soul master actually required more attention from Watt.

Watt felt that Ryan might not treat him as a human at all, and his heart became increasingly depressed. However, if he happened to meet that kid called Copperfield, he could also conveniently catch him. After all, the family's reward for this man wasn't low, even if a portion of it was deducted by Ryan, it would still be a lot of money in Watt's hands.

Ryan had promised Watt that if the potion experiment that the family had done before could be promoted, the family would give Ryan some slots for the potion. This made Ryan very tempted.

If he could obtain that potion, he would be able to increase his strength several times in a short period of time, and he would have another trump card to save his life in the event of an emergency.

As for the thunderclouds in the sky, Watt had never thought of investigating them. In his opinion, investigating thunderclouds was no different from courting death.

If he captured Copperfield and directly handed it over to headquarters in Cavendish Town...

With this merit, it wasn't impossible for him to advance to the administrative level of Mountain View City. When that time came, given Ryan's strength, how could he suppress him?

Thinking of this, a cold smile appeared on Watt's lips.

It was precisely because of this that when Watt entered the mountain range of magical beasts today, all of his followers were his personal guards. If he could capture Copperfield, even if he was a corpse, all he needed to do was to bring it back to Cavendish Town...

Although Watt didn't know why the family would pay so much attention to this trash, that wasn't what he needed to consider. Thinking of the scene of him hugging the left and right after he had made a contribution, Watt, who had been assigned to such a dangerous mission, did not seem to be in such a bad mood.

After all, when he thought about it, it made sense. In the periphery of the Magical Beasts Mountain Range, with his strength of four-star mid-tier, what magical beast could pose a threat to him?

At the same time, Copperfield picked a few weapons and some defensive equipment that seemed to be in good condition, and left the volcanic region with Doragon.

Doragon didn't really care at all. Compared to his future, those pieces of scrap metal were nothing. Moreover, Copperfield had also given him half of the heart of lava. It was a bloody profit!

Before leaving, Doragon even generously gave Copperfield a pile of magic crystals. The quality was different across the crystals, but it was enough to train Copperfield's forging skills.

After all, he had to keep some of the materials he had obtained from hunting magic beasts for forging practice. After he sold the rest, he had to buy the tools needed for forging.

Copperfield faintly felt that practicing forging would burn a lot of money.

Especially in the early stages, when there was no guarantee of a high success rate, the loss caused by every forging failure was basically no different from burning money directly.

Along the way, Doragon was very curious about his current strength, and insisted on having Copperfield head towards some areas that were inhabited by powerful magical beasts.

On the surface, it was said that he wanted to see what level his strength had reached, but in reality, it was just that he had just gotten a leg up. Enemies that he couldn't defeat in the past, now he was going to take revenge on them one by one on the way!

Copperfield thought for a moment. It was not impossible for him to find some powerful magical beasts to test his current combat strength. After all, he had not fought any battles after Doragon broke out of its cocoon.

Copperfield now had one more combat partner that he could use in battle, other than Nameless. It was not impossible for him to test his combat strength. On the way, he could also obtain some useful materials by hunting magical beasts.

He was now preparing to practice a profession that burned money. Money was not too much to him.

Moreover, once he really entered the field of forging, Copperfield would not have to worry about money in the future.

At the same time, he could gain an additional identity to be known to as to the outside world. After all, no one would doubt the identity of a blacksmith. It was too late to curry favor with him.

Back then in Titan City, in the Russell family.

His father was a nine-star powerhouse. He was extremely respectful towards the fifth grade blacksmith master in the family. From this, it could be seen that the status of a blacksmith in Titan city was not something that an ordinary person could compare to.

A man and a dragon walked out of the volcanic region.

The more they walked, the more depressed Doragon felt.

Powerful magical beasts almost all had a certain level of intelligence. It seemed that they were affected by the thunderclouds. The magical beasts that were originally residing in their territory had disappeared without a trace. The nests were empty. Not even a single useful thing was left behind, it seemed that they were afraid of the thunderclouds and had immediately moved away.

This made Doragon extremely depressed.

"You want to move after bullying me, right? Don't you dare to play around with me!"

When those magical beasts that had a grudge against him had moved away, Doragon did not feel anything initially. Now that he had the strength and backing to fight them, his enemies could no longer be found. The more he thought about it, the angrier he got.

There was no other way. Since he couldn't find any traces of the magical beasts, Copperfield didn't plan to waste any more time here. He quickly walked toward the outskirts of the mountain range.

The sound of a harmonica could be heard.

Seeing Doragon for the first time at midnight, he was very curious. He even wanted to ride him. Unfortunately, after turning into a small form, Doragon looked like a small snake. He couldn't experience the joy of riding a dragon. As for his real body...

Copperfield had thought about riding Doragon to increase his speed, but it was definitely not now.

After all, the thunderclouds were still entrenched in the sky above the mountain range of magical beasts. If he flew too high and was accidentally hit by the clouds, the losses incurred would outweigh the gains obtained.

Although with the help of the necklace, the thunderclouds could not sense his aura, Copperfield did not want to risk something bad happening if he flew too close.

Riding on Midnight, Copperfield rushed to the outskirts of the mountain range...

In the evening, Watt and the others came to the vicinity of the Thunder Cliff. Just as they were about to set up camp, they heard the neighing of a horse not far away.
