I Am A Notorious Hidden Boss In The Alternate World
Chapter 251 - Mission UpdateShortly after Albion and Fenriri left the city lord's office, a middle-aged male servant entered and bowed to City Lord Baschmi.
"Would you like this servant to continue keeping an eye on them, my Lord?" the middle-aged male servant asked.
City Lord Baschmi silently glanced outside the glass window of his high office with a thoughtful look, not in a hurry to answer the male servant.
After some time, City Lord Baschmi asked, "What do you think of the young man called Albion, Steward? Can you guess his strength?"
"No, my lord," Steward shook his head.
"But no matter what his strength is, it cannot be greater than yours, my lord. Even back in the Azure Dragon Star Realm, there were not many cultivators that can rival your strength, let alone surpass it."
"This world, the Netherfrost Blizzard Realm, has a lower spiritual energy rating. And from what this servant has observed of the native lifeforms living outside our city, it would be difficult for any being to reach the Spirit Manifestation Realm."
"But you have forgotten one crucial point, Steward. That young man is not from this world either. Like us, that young man came from a different world," City Lord Baschmi stated.
"That could just be a lie to align my lord's interest with the young man to make negotiations easier…is what this servant would like to say," Steward said wryly before shaking his head.
"However, my lord is not someone who can be deceived by the words of others so easily. Otherwise, my lord would not have been able to climb up to the seat of city lord and remain in such a position of power for so many years."
"May this servant ask why my lord trusts his words?" Steward asked.
"Although I was not purposely hiding my aura, he saw through my cultivation with a single glance and kept his composure—or rather, my cultivation did not faze him at all," City Lord Baschmi stated.
Shortly after, he added with a chuckle, "The young man even dared to sell me garbage pills for spirit herbs of higher value. I haven't met such an interesting person in a while…"
"Going by my lord's words, this young man is suspected to be at the Mid-stage Spirit Manifestation Realm or even higher? Oh, if his cultivation is this high, then he might not even be a young man. Should this servant call off the surveillance?" Steward asked.
"No, just let them be. Since Sir Albion did not mention anything about this, he probably does not mind being watched. Just keep it moderate from a distance and not intrude the person's privacy," City Lord Baschmi instructed.
"Understood, my lord," Steward complied with a bow.
However, Steward did not leave immediately but mentioned, "There's a chance that they won't stay in the city for long and might continue to explore the blizzard world…"
"Should this servant sent a message to the scout teams currently outside the city and let them know how to behave if they run into these two people, my lord?" Steward asked.
City Lord Baschmi paused for a moment before he shook his head, "No, just let them be. If they offend Sir Albion, it's a good chance to collect data on his strength. These scouts belong to rival factions who are always waiting for the chances to replace me anyway."
"Understood, my lord."

At the abandoned Iceborn Wolf Tribe's location, the two Regulators stepped out from the world portal, still in their phoenix costumes, before they were assaulted by the frightening coldness.
Nevertheless, a bluish barrier shielded them from the cold.
"Report; the environment in this world is brutally harsh. Our energy barrier won't hold for long with the rate our energy is being depleted," Cetwo informed after a quick analysis.
"Seems like we can only return for now. We won't be able to track the True Immortal in this weather," Ceone frowned before she said with a sigh, "It would be great if the True Immortal did not travel so much."
Ding!
Suddenly, an email was transmitted to the holographic devices on their wrists and caused the two Regulators to be surprised.
"Seems like this cold world is within the range of the Federation's interdimensional network," Ceone commented before asking, "What did the Federation send, Cetwo?"
"Report; according to the latest news, the Federation is not doing so well. A Calamity-class Void Beast spawned from a collapsed black hole, and the Federation Leader cannot beat it. As such, our mission has just been updated."
"The remaining four weeks to invite the True Immortal back to the Federation has been reduced to one week. In addition, the penalty of failure has been removed, but additional teams have been dispatched to carry out our mission."
"Only the successful team will receive the reward from the Federation," Cetwo reported.
Ceone frowned.
Nevertheless, the removal of the penalty of failure was a huge weight lifted off their shoulders, allowing them room to breathe.
"There is a bit of time for us to investigate this world before heading back. Since it is within reach of the Federation's interdimensional network, we may be able to pinpoint its location and name," Ceone stated.
However, she accidentally kicked a large chest after taking a step, forcing her to glance curiously.
"Why is this placed here?"
At that moment, the Blizzard Earthworms had just finished a great feast and laid with their bellies sticking out sluggishly—when the entire space suddenly shook, alarming all of them.
"Ah, it's an earthquake!"
"Calamity strikes again! What shall we do, my king?!"
The Blizzard Earthworms panicked and looked to their new king for directions just as the chest lid swung open.
"I—!"
The new king and the rest of the Blizzard Earthworms looked up at two pairs of curious eyes gazing back down on them before their entire beings froze like they were being watched by their natural predators.
"B-B-Birds!! Everyone, run!"
"We're going to be eaten!"
The Blizzard Earthworms cried and scattered around with nowhere to really run as they were trapped inside the big chest.
"What the hell are these little guys? I've never seen worms like these guys before?" Ceone questioned with surprise after picking up the new king for a close inspection.
"Ah, noo—! Don't eat me! I don't taste good!"
