Landlord World - Start with SSS talent-Chapter 192: Reveal my true identity

The room is not large, only about 30 square meters. Inside the room are many shelves, each with small square compartments separated by glass panels. In these small compartments are neatly placed cards, blueprints, designs, or types of medicinal herbs that he had never seen before.

"This place is...?" Noan frowned, his eyes glancing at Caleb as if waiting for his answer.

Caleb, feeling proud, spoke up: "Master, this place is entirely the property provided to me. You can take all of it, so there is no need to worry."

Upon hearing Caleb, Noan stared at him, furrowing his brows as he asked, "Is your family very wealthy? There are so many rare resources here, doesn't your family mind?"

Caleb smiled and replied, "Master, I haven't received any resources from my family in over fifteen years. Now, I want to exchange all the resources from those fifteen years, so that's why there are so many."

"Of course, many things are hard to explain, but I can assure you that everything here belongs to you. Even if you take all of it, there won't be any trouble."

Hearing Caleb speak with such confidence, Noan nodded in agreement. Although he feared complications, the resources here far exceeded what he had anticipated. There were many things that he never thought he could afford, and yet they appeared here.

It wouldn't be wrong to call this place a treasure trove. It seems the families in this city are wealthier than he thought. Just the resources for one family member are this plentiful; how much more would the resources under the control of a Family Head be?

Noan didn't want to think too much about it. He immediately entered the room and began walking around.

Caleb didn't enter the room but stood outside because he knew Noan had secrets that could not be shared with others. He didn't want to know either; all he needed to know was that Noan could bring these things to the Chaos World, and that was enough.

Even just 10% of the resources in the room would be enough for him to rebuild his Territory and summon more soldiers.

The door closed, leaving only Noan and Vylyss in the room.

At this moment, Noan felt that Caleb's IQ and EQ were very high. Someone like him, Noan would surely value and could not afford to discard.

The only issue was that Caleb's rank was too low. For now, he was useful, but no matter how intelligent Caleb became in the future, it would be useless. Once they reach rank C or above, all strategies will seem like child's play; the only strength will be what they can rely on.

However, Noan wasn't too worried. After all, he possessed the SSS rank talent. Every time his Lord's rank evolved, his talent would gain a new ability. He believed that his talent could affect many other things in the future, not just be limited to the soldiers and heroes he summoned.

Noan didn't think too much about it. He began to take inventory of what was here. Fortunately, an information board described the quantities of everything available in the room.

After reading the information board, Noan felt even more uneasy. The resources here were far more than he had expected—so much so that a thought crossed his mind… Caleb's family might be planning a rebellion.

Indeed, although the amount of resources here was vast, it made Noan feel like these resources were meant to build a Lord's army. Why would a family want to build the Lord's army? There could only be one reason: they wanted to revolt.

But that didn't concern him. All he needed to do was take all the resources here. If Caleb's family did indeed revolt, Noan would save Caleb during the most dangerous time.

Noan couldn't carry all these resources, so he used another 'Storage Space x99 slots.' He had received this after opening a Mythical treasure chest. Even better, the number of 'Storage Spaces' he could own was unlimited.

Additionally, he still had the space stones that Carlotta had given him. Each stone contained a fairly large space, enough for him to store many resources inside.

Noan didn't bother examining each type of resource here. He was too lazy for that. He just needed to take everything, and once he reached the 'Chaos World,' he would have the NPCs and his subordinates handle it.

...

A little while later, Noan stepped outside. Caleb immediately approached him with a smile, asking, "Master, are you satisfied?"

Noan nodded and smiled, saying, "You did very well. Don't worry, once we get to that world, I won't let you suffer."

Upon hearing this, Caleb smiled happily. Of course, he trusted Noan, and Noan had no reason to deceive him. After all, he was already Noan's slave; even if Noan gave him nothing, he would have to endure it. But if Noan said so, he was sure Noan would make good on his word.

After chatting for a while, Noan left with Vylyss. Caleb, in turn, used some of the little money he had saved to purchase more resources.

The more resources, the better. Caleb only wished he had more money to buy more resources. He started thinking about selling some things he had to buy additional resources. Or maybe… Caleb suddenly thought of something he could sell, but… selling this would be difficult.

…

Leaving the bank, Noan walked through the streets joyfully and excitedly, holding Vylyss's hand tightly. Seeing him so happy, Vylyss also felt incredibly happy inside. It seemed as if her emotions had synced with Noan's. She didn't know what could make him happy, but as long as he was pleased, she was happy too.

Occasionally, Vylyss would glance at the ring on her middle finger, feeling an inexplicable warmth in her heart.

Ring! Ring! Ring!

Suddenly, Noan's phone rang. He took out the phone and saw it was from Raito, so he answered it. Raito's voice came through from the phone: "Master, there's a bit of trouble."

Noan frowned upon hearing this, his gaze sharpening slightly.

…

In the evening, at an abandoned factory on the city's outskirts.

It seemed that no one ever came here, and the nearest residential area was more than thirty miles away. There were no other buildings or factories nearby, just this one abandoned factory.

Noan arrived at the location with Raito and entered the factory. Though it appeared to be an abandoned factory, the interior had been renovated by Raito's group into a base specifically for them.

Raito led Noan to a large warehouse. Inside was dim and smelled strongly of dampness, causing Noan to furrow his brow.

Ting!

The lights turned on, and Noan immediately saw three people whose faces he would never forget, even if they were to die.

"You bastards! Let me out!"

"Damn it! Water, give me some water, just a little water."

"Ha… ha… please, let me out. My brother is the head of the police department. If you don't let me out, he will… he will…"

Seeing Negon's family groaning pitifully, Noan couldn't help but smile with some satisfaction.

Their condition wasn't very good; their bodies were covered in wounds, and some of them had become infected.

They had been imprisoned here, so all their bodily functions had to occur in this very spot. The foul smell of faeces, the scent of urine mixed with the musty odour, and the rusty metallic tang created an overwhelmingly disgusting stench.

They were blindfolded, unable to tell whether it was day or night, only able to moan and groan in despair.

Noan waved his hand, and Raito, understanding what needed to be done, nodded and signalled for his subordinates to take action.

Three large men approached them, and because the stench was so overpowering, they had to cover their noses with masks. They dragged the three individuals into the center of the warehouse and then removed their blindfolds.

The three didn't dare open their eyes, having lived in darkness for so long. Now, even the smallest bit of light was so blinding that they couldn't open their eyes.

After a while, they slowly opened their eyes and saw the people standing before them, causing them to be startled.

"Noan! Why… why are you here?" Negon gasped in fear. "You… you… are you the one behind my kidnapping?"

"Noan! You bastard!" Negon's father, furious, used the little strength left in him to shout, "What the hell are you doing? Do you know that kidnapping is illegal?"

"Yes! Yes!" Negon's mother quickly added, "My brother is the head of the police department. If you don't release us, I will make you regret it!"

Hearing their threats, Noan's face curled into a cruel smile.

At this moment, Raito respectfully brought over a chair. Noan sat down, his gaze fixed on Negon's family. He frowned and said, "I'll give you a chance. Reveal my true identity."
