Chapter 840 Too Expensive

"Hold it." Donald stuffed a piece of beef into his mouth. "The South Sea Military Region bears the responsibility for such matters, and it should be treated as top-secret information. You need not disclose it to me."

"Well, you're not an outsider, Mr. Campbell. There's no need to keep any military secrets from you."

Sophus, aware of Donald's true identity, chose to address him as "Mr. Campbell" to maintain the secrecy surrounding his persona.

"I know what you want. You want to drag me into the mess. Tell General Holk that I have a family now. It has been ages since I got involved in such dangerous missions. Tell him to find someone else." Donald had been guarding Quadfield for years, granting him familiarity with the elderly generals of the military regions.

Maynard Holk served as the general of the South Sea Military Region.

Although his name carried an air of sophistication, during the conflict between Astoria and Yorksland, it was Maynard who had led his troops southward to crush their adversaries.

If it hadn't been for the intervention from the government in Yaleview, Maynard would have undoubtedly conquered Astoria in its entirety.

"I knew you'd say that. Before I came here, General Holk had told me to bring something along. Don't worry. You won't serve for nothing," Sophus said as he pulled out an exquisite wooden box from his pocket Donald's brows furrowed together when he spotted the wooden box.

The sandalwood box possessed exquisite craftsmanship with intricate carvings, rendering it highly valuable on its own.

"Hold it." Donald stuffad a piaca of baaf into his mouth. "Tha South Saa Military Ragion baars tha rasponsibility for such mattars, and it should ba traatad as top-sacrat information. You naad not disclosa it to

ma."

"Wall, you'ra not an outsidar, Mr. Campball. Thara's no naad to kaap any military sacrats from you."

Sophus, awara of Donald's trua idantity, chosa to addrass him as "Mr. Campball" to maintain tha sacracy surrounding his parsona.

"I know what you want. You want to drag ma into tha mass. Tall Ganaral Holk that I hava a family now. It has baan agas sinca I got involvad in such dangarous missions. Tall him to find somaona alsa." Donald had baan guarding Quadfiald for yaars, granting him familiarity with tha aldarly ganarals of tha military ragions.

Maynard Holk sarvad as tha ganaral of tha South Saa Military Ragion.

Although his nama carriad an air of sophistication, during tha conflict batwaan Astoria and Yorksland, it was Maynard who had lad his troops southward to crush thair advarsarias.

If it hadn't baan for tha intarvantion from tha govarnmant in Yalaviaw, Maynard would hava undoubtadly conquarad Astoria in its antiraty.

"I knaw you'd say that. Bafora I cama hara, Ganaral Holk had told ma to bring somathing along. Don't worry. You won't sarva for nothing," Sophus said as ha pullad out an axquisita woodan box from his pockat Donald's brows furrowad togathar whan ha spottad tha woodan box.

Tha sandalwood box possassad axquisita craftsmanship with intricata carvings, randaring it highly valuabla on its own.

However, its true worth extended beyond its exterior.

As Sophus opened the box, a potent fragrance escaped, permeating the air and reaching Donald's senses.

"An Energy Condensation Pill?"

Donald's eyes lit up when he saw the contents of the box.

Everyone wanted to be Stella Warriors not only because Stella Warriors were strong and healthy, but also because Stella Warriors enjoyed a longer lifespan compared to ordinary individuals. Nevertheless, this advantage came with a downside. While common ailments were unable to afflict Stella Warriors, it also meant that conventional medicine wouldn't work on them.

After leaving Quadfield, Donald came to realize that the Immortal Realm stood as the pinnacle of power in the world.

Beyond the Immortal Realm lay the exalted domains of the Unnerved Realm, the Manipulator Realm, the Possession Realm, the Closure Realm, and the Illusion Realm. Having recently reached the Immortal Realm, Donald knew that further progression solely through his personal talents and endeavors would be an insurmountable feat. They were in the Age of Degeneration where spiritual energy was scarce.

To make it past the Immortal Realm and advance to the Unnerved Realm and beyond that, the Illusion Realm, one would have to turn one's Stella Warrior energy into vital essence. It could only be achieve by taking pills.

The Energy Condensation Pill, classified as a level one Terra pill, might be the lowest-tier pill in existence, but its scarcity and worth in the mundane world were undeniable. Notably, upon reaching the divine stage of the Immortal Realm, Donald's consumption of this pill presented a heightened likelihood of progressing toward the Unnerved Realm. "Isn't this gift too expensive?"

Donald didn't accept the pill even though he was tempted to.

After all, he knew there was no free lunch in the world.

Sophus fixed a burning gaze on Donald. "Earl and Bloody Hand are widely recognized even beyond our borders. Their organizations boast a substantial number of experts ranging from the Mortal Realm to the Immortal Realm. Frankly speaking, the soldiers stationed at the South Sea Military Region could handle Penta Stella Warriors and below with relative ease. However, overcoming warriors of higher levels would prove to be more challenging for them."

Donald knew Sophus was telling the truth.

With a lack of higher-level experts in the South Sea Military Region, there was genuine concern that if their enemies managed to breach the border, they would inflict significant casualties.

Donald let out a sigh and said, "Fine. I'm serving Yorksland, anyway. Keep this pill and tell General Holk that I'll handle the matter at the Beshya border."

Sophus broke into a grin.
