Chapter 349 Another acquaintance has arrived
As night falls, the brightly lit city of Brahma gradually fades away, and the magic lamps on both sides of the road go out one by one. The magnificent street that was so popular not long ago suddenly becomes extremely quiet.

Most of the shops were closed, with only some hotels and taverns still having dim lights. The Starlight Trading Company had also turned off most of the lights, leaving only the huge reconnaissance magic circle on the roof still flickering.

Watertight, this is Genos's evaluation of Starlight Trading Company.

As expected of the richest trading company in the human kingdom, the defense of their headquarters has almost reached the limit of what they can do.

When constructing this headquarters building, Starlight Trading Company invested a lot of manpower, financial resources and material resources. Not only did it hire a group of dwarf craftsmen to build the entire building to near perfection, like a solid wall of steel, but it also spent a huge amount of money to invite the most famous group of magicians at the time to set up a defense system comparable to that of great magic.

The Starlight Trading Company's headquarters is indeed impregnable. Even a group of glory-level adventurers cannot invade it.

Genos was very patient. He waited in a remote corner outside the Starlight Trading Company until the early morning. When it was darkest, he crushed the magic scroll that he had treasured for a long time.

"I've suffered a huge loss this time. I hope you won't let me down. Never mind, let's get to work first." Muttering to himself, Genos activated the double acceleration fighting skill and disappeared on the spot in an instant.

……

"We're finally here. I'm so exhausted from the journey." Aiqier wiped the sweat from her forehead. Her face looked a little pale, as if she had consumed too much magic power.

"Thank you for your hard work. Let's go into the city and find a hotel to rest first."

Lauren, Rosa and Sigli stepped down from a flying magic prop that looked like a strange bird with a crooked beak. The prop then kept shrinking and eventually became the size of a fist and flew back into Aqir's hand.

"Hey, this prop of yours is really convenient. Not only is it much faster than a flying carpet, but it is also very stable. It just consumes more magic power." Sigri patted Aiqier's shoulder.

Aiqier rolled her eyes at Sigri. This was not only a consumption of magic power, but the journey from the Kendenia Empire to the Principality of Saint Gamma was long, and the magic power consumed along the way was terrifying. If Aiqier was not a reincarnated angel, she would have run out of magic power and died of exhaustion on the way.

Even so, Aiqier felt dizzy, her eyes were dull and she kept yawning.

All members of the 'Valkyrie', the top-ranked adventurer team of the Kendenia Empire, have come to Brahma City. In fact, with Princess Loren's status, they could have come here openly through diplomatic means, but in that case the procedures would be very cumbersome, so they just came here quietly by aircraft.

"It's a pity that the distance between the two countries is too far, otherwise it would be much more convenient to just use teleportation magic." Aiqier said while yawning. She couldn't do that with her current strength.

"Talk less. This place is not far from Fancheng and we will get there soon. Let's go into the city first." Lauren said.

"Yeah." Sigri and Rosa both nodded.

Just as they were about to take action, suddenly a white shadow came from far away and quickly rushed past them. Its speed was so fast that the members of the "Valkyrie" were stunned for a moment.

"What is that?" Aiqier was still a little confused due to lack of magic and didn't see the white shadow clearly.

"It's him." Rosa's answer was brief.

"It should be him." Sigley blinked.

"Round Table Knight... Genos?" Lauren frowned. She had some impression of this knight who had proposed to her three times. Why was the knight of the Holy See running wildly in the wilderness at night, as if something was chasing him?

With the strength of a Knight of the Round Table, there are few people in the human kingdom who can threaten him.

Although she was speechless about some of Genos's outrageous actions, Lauren still recognized his strength. Lauren had sparred with Genos before, and even when she used "Caesar's Afterglow", she could only barely tie with the opponent's holy sword skills.

What's more, this is the territory of the Principality of Saint Gamma, and no one should be able to threaten him.

Just when Lauren and others were puzzled, there was another "swish" sound and the white shadow came back.

"Princess Lauren? And everyone from the 'Valkyrie', why are you here?" Genos looked at the female adventurers in front of him with a little disbelief. He felt something was wrong when he passed by just now, so he came back to take a look. Unexpectedly, he met someone unexpected.

"We should be the ones asking this question, Your Highness, the Seventh Seat of the Round Table, the Perfect Knight, why are you here?" Lauren asked back.

"Well, well, how should I put it? You know, as a Knight of the Round Table, there are all kinds of incidents to deal with." Genos said vaguely. The waters of Starlight Trading Company are too deep, and some of the things he just discovered in the underground factory are too shocking, so he doesn't want to involve the 'Valkyrie' in this incident.

"That's true." Lauren nodded in agreement. Since it might involve the secrets of the Holy See, she did not ask any further questions.

"Where are you going next? Aren't you going back to Brahma?"

"Go back to Brahma City? I don't have any plans for now. That's not good!" Genos seemed to have thought of something, his face changed, and he said quickly: "Hurry up! There are some troublesome guys behind us who are about to catch up."

"Trouble? Do you need help?" Lauren raised her eyebrows.

Genos hesitated for a moment, sighed, and said, "Well, it's too late. You guys are here to listen to Nylis's concert, right? I didn't intend to involve you..."

At this time, the members of 'Valkyrie' noticed something strange. There were several figures in the distance moving quickly towards them.

"Tsk, they finally caught up with us." Genos drew out the cross sword.

The members of 'Valkyrie' looked at those people in the distance and soon discovered some clues.

"Black Heaven." A silver dagger appeared in Rosa's hand, and her aura became erratic.

"What a coincidence! I didn't expect to run into these guys as soon as we arrived. It saves us the trouble of looking for them." A ray of fire was reflected in Sigri's pupils. She took out her magic wand and began to recite the first few bytes of the spell silently.

"It's quite a coincidence. Aiqi'er, please step back and leave this to us."

Lauren took a step forward and stood in front of Aiqier. The ring on her hand flashed and the magic spear "Caesar's Afterglow" was held in her hand.

"Oh, okay..." Aiqier was indeed too tired. In order to quickly reach Fancheng, she had been flying the aircraft for two days and two nights, almost draining all the magic power in her body. Now she was completely unable to fight.
