In the room.

Kreya and the others watched Bagri with some vigilance; their intuition told them this person was extraordinarily strong, absurdly so.

Seeing this, Lu Keqi immediately stood upright and explained to Kreya and the others.

"This is President Bagri, the President of the Food Association and the City Lord of the City of Gastronomy."

Upon hearing Lu Keqi's explanation, the expressions of Kreya and the others gradually turned to shock.

Kreya covered her mouth, somewhat surprised: "The President of the Food Association, isn't that..."

Kane had already guessed this person's identity, but he was still curious why mere Silver Black Mist Explorers would alarm such an existence.

From Lu Keqi's earlier display, it was evident that these people's attempt to blow up the dungeon was like clownish behavior.

And Bagri, after glancing at the corpses on the ground, muttered some complaints.

He turned his head, looked at Kreya and the others' staring eyes, and waved his hand with a smile, greeting Kane and the others: "Hello, everyone."

"You are Kane, right?" he suddenly said to Kane.

The sudden question left Kane a bit baffled, but he nodded and replied: "Yes."

"It's nothing, Gordon mentioned you to me before."

Hearing his words, an image of a dignified old man who changed his beard style daily popped into Kane's mind, although Kane always thought his dignity was feigned.

"Oh, I almost forgot why I came here." Bagri clenched his right fist and struck it into his open palm.

He reached into the void and then pulled out a white bag, adorned with various flora and fauna, which he then tossed to Kane.

"Consider this as your reward. Although these are just some cockroaches overestimating themselves, cleaning them up is a troublesome task, isn't it." He finished with a wink at Kane and a benevolent smile.

Upon receiving it, Kane didn't appraise it immediately, but remembered something and suddenly said.

"There might still be Black Mist Explorers; when they died, they said an Elder was coming this way."

Hearing Kane's words, Bagri raised an eyebrow: "More cockroaches? I can't let them contaminate my kitchen."

With that, Bagri closed his eyes, suddenly clenched his fists, and punched the air.

Opening his eyes, he shook his hand: "Alright, the cockroaches have been squashed."

"Well, I'll be going now. You all continue your chat." With that, Bagri placed his hands behind his waist and leisurely walked out of the room.

The departure was like that of a retired old man.

Meanwhile, hundreds of kilometers away from the City of Gastronomy, a slate-gray birdman was flying in the sky.

He wore human attire, exuding a Gold-level aura.

Suddenly, his entire body exploded into a burst of blood mist.

The man died without knowing how he was killed, hopefully, he would never know.

If he knew it was his subordinate's loose tongue, he might just die from anger again.

But these matters had little to do with Kane and the others.

In the room.

Kane and the others exchanged glances, looking at Bagri who had sauntered in and out.

In one entrance and exit, a Gold-level powerhouse was taken down.

Perhaps this is what it means to be a big shot.

Lu Keqi, after Bagri left, exhaled and wiped the virtual sweat off his forehead.

"So, we'll also be leaving now. These two cards keep a record of your contributions. You can exchange them for rewards at any Explorer's House or the Mist Council."

With that, Lu Keqi took out two silver cards from his space equipment and handed them to Kane and Funa.

Then he collected all the corpses into his space equipment.

"We won't disturb you any further."

With those words, Lu Keqi and his assistant waved to Kane and the others before leaving the room.

Kane looked at the white bag in his hand, preparing to speak, but Funa and the other three approached the door.

"Then we'll be heading back first. See you."

With that, they walked out and shut the door, not giving Kane and the others a chance to speak.

"We certainly met an extraordinary person today," Longbei said, sitting on the sofa.

Lilulu flickered onto Kane's shoulder and said, "Kane, quickly see what he gave you."

This piqued everyone's curiosity; they all wanted to know what items a bigwig of a multicolored level would give.

Kane wasted no time and appraised the white cloth bag in his hand.

[Logistics Bag]

[Container]

[Color: Gold]

[Attributes:]

[Indestructible]

[Skill: Time Permanence] (All items placed inside the bag will have their time stopped.)

[Description: A Magic Item forged with the combination of Time and Space, its interior no longer subject to the erosion of time.]

The simple attributes and skills bring absurd effects.

However, such an item offers no enhancement to Kane and his group's strength.

The name of this equipment already suggests its intended use, doesn't it?

Kane opened the bag's mouth and peeked inside.

The interior space was a 100 meter by 100 meter by 100-meter cube.

Such space was more than adequate for Kane and his team since it wouldn't contain too much within.

But the usage method wasn't that of regular space equipment; it was similar to a warehouse-type space equipment.

One needed to open the bag's mouth, reach inside with their hand to retrieve objects.

In a time-fixed space, what would be ideal to store, I wonder?

Except for storing cooked meals and some items that are easily perishable over time, it's hard to think of what use this thing has right now.

At this stage, this equipment might be considered an advanced version of freezing-type space equipment?

When Kreya and the others heard Kane's introduction of this equipment, they also couldn't figure out its current usefulness. So they decided to set it aside for now and use it when necessary.

After some thought, Kane handed the equipment to Kreya, thinking it might be more practical for her at the current stage.

After all, the team's food supplies are stored with Kreya, and she could also store her practice dishes in the equipment while learning culinary skills.

This way, Kreya can practice her culinary skills anytime, anywhere without wasting anything.

Although it seemed somewhat wasteful to use such a sophisticated item for these purposes.

After completing these tasks, Kane leaned back on the sofa and opened the parchment scroll to review their next mission objectives.

Capture mission.

The diagram in the middle of the parchment depicted a cat with unusually large ears that could be used as wings.

Flying Wing Hunter.

This is the name of the cat.

Kane then checked the habitat of this cat.

It turned out to be on Sky Island, but since Kane and his team could use Cotton Candy to get up there, their luck wasn't so bad after all.

Kane took out the magic stone hanging from his neck and examined it; it was now completely filled.

After around ten silver-level explorers of varying strengths died, their energy, combined with Kane's leftover energy, filled up six magic stones directly.

At this rate of energy replenishment, if Kane hadn't adhered to his principles, who knows what consequences might have arisen.

Kane pulled out all six magic stones.

Considering that the current skill grid and skills were already well arranged, Kane only hoped that these six magic stones would yield skills suitable for Meizike and Longbei.

The skills in their skill grids had been digested long ago and learned thoroughly.

At this point, their skill grids were empty.

Also, there didn't appear to be any eye-color skills requiring upgrades, so all six magic stones were to be used for extracting new skills.

He held all five magic stones in one hand while opening the Book of Adventure with the other, pressing his palm on the extraction array.

[Skill Extraction]

[Whether to consume silver magic stones for skill extraction]

[Yes][No]

"Yes"

[Skill Extraction in progress······]

The array on the book began to spin, emitting a faint light, and the silver magic stones in hand disappeared, turning into six metallic plates with glowing patterns.

Looking at these six skill stones, Kane felt little excitement; he had entered a zen-like state of mind, knowing only a gold-level skill extraction might excite him next.

He picked up the skill stones one by one for identification.

[Name: Praise of Magic]

[Category: Consumption Skill]

[Color: Silver]

[Explanation: After using the skill, enhances current magic power by 30%, effective at the silver level.]

[Introduction: A praise of life, power concerning the essence of life obtained from higher personality intelligent beings.]

Sure enough, once his skill stones reached a certain level, he could draw consumption skills from the skill pool that directly and permanently enhance various body attributes.

He placed the skill stone into his skill grid and chose to use it immediately.

He had never experienced the enhancement effect of a silver-level consumption skill before.

With the skill's use, a slot in the skill grid was vacated, and the Praise of Magic placed on it disappeared.

Though the skill stones appear on the Book of Adventure, they actually reside within Kane's body.

Thus, the skill stone shattered and vanished within Kane's body, transforming into blue starlight scattered throughout his body.

Kane could clearly feel his magic power growing; 30% is no small increase. With the base increase in magic power, the effects of other equipment enhancements and skills instantly received a boost.

Because this skill's 30% enhancement is the most essential magic power increase, other effects strengthening magic power naturally also got a boost.

After experiencing the enhancement effect on his magic power, Kane felt very satisfied.

He wished for more of these skills that could enhance his physical attributes and strength without occupying a skill slot.

Especially now that his demand for silver skills was gradually diminishing.

He composed himself and continued with the next identification.

[Name: Limb Multiplication]

[Category: Active Skill]

[Color: Silver]

[Explanation: Spend magic power to greatly enlarge one's limbs, which can change simultaneously, or allow partial enlargement. The enlargement range is between 2 to 5 times, with enlargement enhancing strength and various limb attributes.]

[Introduction: A favorite skill of male intelligent life, but since users often misused it for inappropriate purposes, the creator modified and weakened it so that it can only enlarge limbs, which is quite a pity.]

An epic nerf that directly crippled this skill's main function.

This was Kane's first reaction upon seeing the skill introduction, it was truly regrettable!

Who wouldn't want to be bigger?

However, this skill is very suitable for Longbei—imagine him using it after transforming into a giant over 5 meters tall; it's an awe-inspiring scene.

Kane felt regret knowing that once Longbei fully learned this skill, it would disappear.

If only it could be preserved and upgraded to gold, it might revert to its unaltered state.

Kane was conflicted, but after much internal debate, decided to pass it to Longbei, as combat power was paramount.

Plus, the skill suited Longbei perfectly.

But who could understand the tears in his heart?
