Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong

Chapter 521: Chapter 385: The Hidden Basement_1

Upon Leo Ray’s signal, their subordinates prepared to rise from the sofa and search for Merchant Ayla Howard once more.

Without warning, the entire room unexpectedly experienced a sudden vibration.

Instantly, the square plate on the coffee table and the teapot and teacup beside it began to tremble slightly, making a clear clashing sound.

Amidst slight astonishment, Leo Ray noticed.

Although the sudden vibration was not intense, nor did it even make it difficult to stand steadily, it gradually intensified before weakening again and finally stopped after about a minute.

When everything returned to normal.

Without hesitation, Leo Ray signaled his subordinates to be on high alert.

He then asked Linda, the female knight, “Linda, was the situation just now the same as your previous encounter?”

On the other side, Linda replied after a slight pondering, “My Lord, it was almost completely different from what I had encountered before.

Firstly, the duration was longer this time, but the intensity of the tremble was weaker.

Secondly, there was no accompanying sound of sharp objects scratching the walls.”

“I see.”

Hearing this, Leo Ray nodded thoughtfully and murmured in his heart, “It seems that the possibility of a connection between the two is not significant.

At this stage, it is better to investigate the source of this sudden vibration as soon as possible.”

Just as Leo Ray was thinking about this.

Thump, thump, thump!

A series of urgent knocks came from the nearby door.

Hearing the sound, Leo Ray signaled Taylor and the others, who had not previously appeared, to put on their Invisibility Cloak, and instructed Linda to open the door.

Following that, when Linda cautiously opened the door.

The figure of the short, fat businessman appeared at the entrance, his oily, chubby face full of panic, exclaiming, “Your Excellency, we’re trapped here!”

“Oh?” Upon hearing this, Leo Ray couldn’t help but show an austere expression, and immediately asked, “What on earth happened?”

“Your Excellency, you… you better come and see for yourself.”

The short and fat businessman had clearly been greatly shocked. After gesturing with his chubby hands for a few seconds, he still couldn’t find the right words to explain.

He then made a “follow me” gesture to Leo Ray before hurriedly leading the way.

So they closed the door and followed the sound of footsteps down the hotel corridor with red carpets.

In no time, Leo Ray and his party arrived at the open-air balcony on that floor.

From this position, they could see the entrance to Crystal Kingdom, and the scenery at the entrance.

Since the hotel was somewhat taller than ordinary buildings.

Leo Ray immediately noticed the abnormal situation there.

Concentrating his observations, he saw that beyond the towering.city wall.

A thick layer of sand and dust had already covered the area, stretching as far as the eye could see, on a truly astonishing scale.

At first glance, it looked like a massive sandstorm had occurred.

Seeing this scene, their subordinates couldn’t help but show bewildered expressions, and began exchanging glances.

Undoubtedly, this sudden turn of events had caught everyone off guard.

However, things were far from simple.

With his eyes slightly narrowed, Leo Ray noticed.

Amidst the rising sand and dust in the distance, a large number of piled-up rocks had formed a solid barrier, blocking the road connecting Crystal Kingdom to the outside world.

This gigantic barrier made of rocks was even taller than the city wall, over ten meters high, undoubtedly completely cutting off the only exit path.

Of course, this kind of large-scale barrier would have no effect on Leo Ray’s team, which was composed of Tier 3 Powerhouses.

However, it was more than enough to stop ordinary civilians.

“So, this is the real reason for the vibrations in the room earlier…”

After a moment of astonishment, Linda, who stood beside Leo Ray, blinked her long eyelashes and revealed a thoughtful expression.

“Your Excellency, such a severe landslide has occurred here.

It seems that we won’t be able to leave for a while.” On the other side, the short, fat businessman’s emotions had gradually calmed down some.

He then sighed heavily, “Alas, what bad luck to encounter such a natural disaster.”

“My Lord, while I was coming here, I had already observed the area carefully.

The mountain structure here is compact, densely covered with vegetation, and there are no traces of groundwater erosion.

Therefore, I believe that such a severe mountain collapse should not be due to a natural disaster.”

Subsequently, Linda’s commanding voice reached Leo Ray’s ear once more.

“So, if it’s not a natural disaster, is it a man-made calamity?”

Hearing these words, Leo Ray pondered and nodded, murmuring in his heart, “I must say, such an unexpected turn of events has caught me off guard.

It seems that we are very likely to be inexplicably involved in some kind of conflict once again.”

“Man… man-made calamity?”

Hearing this, the short, fat businessman’s face showed fear, and with a trembling voice, he continued, “Your Excellency.

Do you mean…someone deliberately cut off this place from the outside world?!”
