Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong Chapter 2727 1498: Shock and Astonishment

Spotting the sudden realization on Moli's face, Leo Ray turned his attention toward her right away, eager to hear what she had to say next.
"This is the effect of spatial overlapping!"
Excitement lit up Moli's starry eyes as she exclaimed, "That deity must have merged the space of our ancient ruins with the current space of Observation City!"
"Merged them like that?"
Leo Ray furrowed his brow a bit and questioned, "But what reason would there be for doing so?"
"Naturally, it was to bring us straight here!"
Shock flickered once more in Moli's starry eyes as she answered, "In typical teleportation magic, one first accesses Void Space before jumping back into real space step by step, because of how different they are."
"Yet, I came across a record in some old text about a superior teleportation technique: spatial overlap, something only a deity can pull off with Divine Domain Magic!"
Her tone grew increasingly serious as Moli went on, "As the term implies, spatial overlap fuses two actual spaces directly with divine might capable of shattering the skies, reaching teleportation's goal without stepping into Void Space!"
"Then, those faint spatial ripples you sensed before were actually hints of the overlap happening, not some Space Barrier holding us back?"
Leo Ray rubbed his chin thoughtfully, lost in reflection.
"That's right, it's no surprise I couldn't use any Spatial Magic at that moment—nothing can stand against such immense force!"
Moli bobbed her head vigorously, adding, "During the spatial overlap in progress, we appeared as mere shadows to one another, like we were stuck in a spatial crack."
"That's the reason those arrows fired at us disappeared halfway; the spaces hadn't completely merged yet, staying shaky, similar to spotty Magic Communication connections."
Having heard Moli's breakdown, Leo Ray grasped it all at once and gave a nod, "So, the moment our Absolute Defense Barrier got ripped open without warning, chased by a burst of intense gray light, that marked the instant completion of the teleportation?"
"Spot on, but this kind of teleportation was unique enough that even the familiar gentle floating feeling was missing, taking everyone off guard."
Moli confirmed Leo Ray's thoughts in her reply.
At these words, the other members of our team showed signs of abrupt understanding too.
At that time, with the environment shifting in a flash, the group had naturally assumed a return to bygone days, unaware it was actually an unusual teleportation!
All except the keenly perceptive Leo Ray, naturally.
"My apologies, Lord Brave; it looks like we truly overlooked you and your companions!"
Old Book pieced together the full story now, offering his regrets to Leo Ray over and over before turning sharply to the middle-aged general at his side, clad in silver armor and wielding a longbow, "General Curry, you struck at these heroes to protect us—hurry and make your apologies to Lord Brave!"
Upon the elder City Lord's command, the general, ready to express his regret, was cut off by Leo Ray's dismissive gesture.
"No apologies needed from you, City Lord and General; everything happened so fast, and we fought back too. Fortunately, the teleportation hadn't kicked in, keeping the city and its devoted guards safe from damage."
With a faint smile, Leo Ray added, "The mix-up's cleared up without any casualties, so let's turn our attention to what's ahead."
Leo Ray's statement drew nods of approval from our experts, while those on their side regarded him with admiration.
Just as the deity predicted, these summoned heroes stand out remarkably—modest and open-hearted, nothing like the haughty ones from before!
"We'll defer completely to Lord Brave."
Old Book agreed multiple times, his face turning grave as he pressed on, "For now, join us on the way to the Great Temple as we talk."
"Much appreciated, City Lord."
Leo Ray dipped his head a little and moved ahead.
Under the old City Lord's lead, our party soon arrived at the street's edge, facing a massive Teleportation Array surrounded by hefty Magic Crystals, which connected straight to the Great Temple's gateway in the heart of the city.
In the midst of this, Leo Ray picked up more details.
Observation City's size is vast, nearly matching that of Lion City.
On top of that, its military might is impressive, boasting 10 Tier 4 Legions and 50 Tier 3 Legions, along with thousands of elite fighters beyond Tier 5, on par with the third-class powers in the Outer Region.
This highlights the Silver Fire Kingdom's outstanding prowess across these territories, especially since Observation City is merely one of its holdings.
"The issue stands out: my territory boasts just a hundred Tier 6 powerhouses, equal in count to theirs. How are we supposed to tackle the threat here? Perhaps it's..."
"Oh, right—what's the precise nature of this crisis? And who's the foe they're up against?"
While Leo Ray mulled it over, a surge of gray light from the Teleportation Array lit up, and his sight sharpened to uncover a towering white temple looming ahead.
