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

Chapter 1586: Chapter 916: Sudden Change in Lionheart City (Lower)_1 Chapter 1586: Chapter 916: Sudden Change in Lionheart City (Lower)_1 “Grandfather! Grandfather is still inside!”

Seeing the ancient castle collapse, Leslie’s face filled with grief. Her legs weakened, and she was about to collapse to the ground. But Linda and Kelsey quickly supported her.

Amidst the astonishment, Leo Ray listened to Linda and Kelsey quietly comforting Leslie while looking at the ruins once again.

The castle had turned into complete ruins without any signs of struggle or anyone breaking out of the rubble. The whole place seemed shrouded in death.

“Judging from the scale of the explosion, the opponent must have secretly deployed a series of large-scale explosive arrays to cause such destructive power,”

Leo Ray frowned, nodding thoughtfully, “Adding the fact that the guards retreated earlier, the identity of the mastermind is self-evident.”

“But from the opponent’s previous actions, although they were ruthless, they were also cautious and didn’t act recklessly. They always avoided giving any excuses.”

“After all, if the news of directly assassinating elders spreads, even if Harrison has completely taken control of the Sanders family, it will inevitably cause dissatisfaction and criticism within and outside the family, which would not be conducive to future development.”

“And if they directly blew up the castle, it would undoubtedly expose their plot to assassinate the elders. Harrison’s party wouldn’t be so impatient as they already had everything under control.”

Thinking about this, Leo Ray looked at the ruins while furrowing his brows even more tightly.

Now there were only two possibilities.

The first was that their actions to rescue Leslie alerted their opponents.

The second was that the four opposing elders did something that forced the other party to detonate the castle.

“After rescuing Leslie, I instructed Elusa and Little Illusion to deploy the Illusion Realm.”

“No one can detect this realm from the outside, and even Tier 4 Peak Powerhouses cannot immediately leave after entering. It is enough to trap everyone for more than half a day, and the news should not spread so quickly.”

“So, is the only possibility left the actions of the four opposing elders?”

“But the opponent’s claws were already on their necks. Why would they further provoke their enemies and choose to bring about their own destruction?”

Just as Leo Ray thought of this, he suddenly noticed something unusual.

There seemed to be a faint trace of illusion mist lingering over the vast ruins, carrying the aura of illusion magic.

With the Power of Divine Grace and the [Blessed Golden Eye], Leo Ray’s perception far exceeded that of ordinary Tier 4 Powerhouses.

Surprised, Leo Ray immediately began to channel his energy to observe carefully, and that’s when he noticed it.

On the ruins of the castle, still shrouded in smoke, there appeared the faint outline of another castle, which seemed to be unscathed and intact.

This sudden, surreal scene seemed like a blending of the past and the present, making everyone marvel.

Now everything was clear.

“So, the explosion just now was only an illusion to deceive the opponents? In this way, things can be explained.”

“That is, the four opposing elders knew the situation was dangerous, so they pretended to enrage the enemy, creating the illusion of being destroyed, only to buy some time and find a way to survive.”

At the same time Leo Ray’s eyes brightened, and his heart cleared.

Jasper Richardson, Taylor, and the Tier 5 powerhouse sensed the same situation.

Elusa and Little Illusion obviously reacted even faster, and they were already standing by their subordinates and Leo Ray, ready to inform them of everything.

“I already know.”

Leo Ray tapped Little Illusion’s head and took her to Leslie.

At this moment, Leslie and the other Tier 4 subordinates learned the truth from Elusa’s hints.

“So the castle wasn’t destroyed? Everything was a delaying tactic by the elders?”

Leslie wiped the tears from her eyes, her face filled with joy.

But soon a touch of confusion spread across her tear-streaked face, “But the Sanders family doesn’t have such a powerful illusion master. How did this happen?”

“It seems that your grandfather has other helpers by his side.”

Leo Ray raised his eyebrows. He waved his hand and said, “There’s no time to lose. Let’s check it out while Harrison’s minions haven’t caught on.”

…

At the same time, in the real castle inside the illusory ruins, where everyone’s attention was focused.

“Did we successfully deceive those guards?”

On a spacious castle balcony, an elderly man dressed in a pale blue magic robe with white hair and beard looked down at the pacing guard soldiers below, letting out a long sigh of relief.

Three more elders with a serious expression stood by the old man in the blue robe, and they all did the same thing.

On their chests, all four bore the stag emblem of the Sanders family. Their identities were naturally self-evident – Leslie’s grandfather and the other three opposing elders.

“Don’t worry, they think they are checking the ruins when they’re actually just walking in circles.”

Not far from the four elders, a tall, skinny figure wrapped in a black scarf spoke in a disguised, awkward voice, “Even Tier 4 Peak Powerhouses can’t see through my illusions.”
