Reincarnated as a boss tyrant in the game

Sauron's lips curved slightly as his fingers gently touched the base of the crystal pillar. Instantly, nine brilliant rays of light erupted from the crystal pillar, with the last ray flashing the traditional Chinese character for 'Sword'.

"Level nine! Your Highness, your talent is truly..." Hiltin and Anka's eyes were filled with surprise and admiration.

Sauron smiled, fully aware of his extraordinary talent, yet even he hadn't expected it to be so astonishing.

"This testing crystal pillar is truly magical; it can actually measure a cultivator's talent," Hiltin exclaimed in amazement.

"Indeed, I didn't anticipate it either," Sauron replied with a smile, then retrieved two vials of potion from his spatial ring.

"Empowerment potions, capable of enhancing cultivation aptitude. They can be used by any cultivator with a cultivation talent below level eight. Consider it a reward for you both."

Joy flashed in Hiltin and Anka's eyes as they eagerly consumed the potions, then immediately sat down cross-legged to refine the medicine.

When they finished refining the potions and tested their cultivation talent again, Hiltin's level remained at seven, but the light was much brighter.

Anka's level also remained at seven, but the light was only half as bright as Hiltin's.

"Not bad, not bad!" Sauron nodded approvingly.

Sauron subconsciously glanced at the remaining four empowerment potions in his spatial ring. He decided to bestow them later, depending on the circumstances.

As for the other cultivation-aiding potions, he resolved to keep them safe, preparing to bring them back to Empress Mathilde next time, hoping to help her break through to the Saint realm faster.

Just as Sauron was about to step out of the maze, the door to the ninth floor slowly opened again, as if foreshadowing some unpredictable change.

Two figures clad in mage robes emerged from the maze. They walked straight towards Sauron, politely bowed to him, and then handed him a notebook.

"This is a cultivation notebook from a certain member of the Seven Sins, bestowed upon you by His Excellency."

After the mages spoke, they turned and headed towards the sixth floor of the maze, giving Sauron no chance to speak.

Sauron's eyes lit up as he carefully stowed the notebook away, bowing to the two mages.

Sauron, Anka, and Hiltin were both curious and surprised by this scene. They closely followed the two mages, stepping out of the maze together.

Both mages possessed eighth-order cultivation, and the magical fluctuations emanating from their bodies made Anka and Hiltin's scalps tingle, clearly indicating that they were no ordinary eighth-order mages.

"What is happening?" Sauron wondered inwardly.

The two mages arrived beside Norahan, standing by his side. Then, all three of them transformed into stone statues, becoming members of the maze's ultimate BOSS team.

"Damn it!" Sauron cursed inwardly.

A demigod, plus two peak eighth-order mages—such a lineup undoubtedly raised the difficulty of the maze by a huge margin.

Previously, a Saint-realm expert could easily conquer the maze, but now, with this powerful lineup, even a Saint-realm expert coming alone might face mortal danger.

Emerging from the maze, Sauron looked at the pile of magic crystals in his spatial ring, a full five hundred kilograms, almost double the previous amount. If all of them were refined into powerful magic potions, there would be at least two thousand! Relying on himself alone to refine them would be too difficult, which was why he wanted to win over Lilianna.

As the first ray of sunlight pierced through the clouds, shining on Sauron's face, he subconsciously raised his hand to shield his eyes.

"Bren!"

A call came from behind, followed by a gentle, warm breath. Sauron turned around and saw that the members of Lilianna's team had already gathered around.

"That's great, you're alright!" Dodola gripped her staff, her cheeks flushed slightly with excitement as she said gratefully.

"That's right, if you hadn't covered our retreat, our team would have been in danger," Monica also generously expressed her gratitude.

Sauron smiled at them, his heart filled with comfort. After this battle, their friendship had deepened during this adventure.

"Thank you for your concern," Sauron replied with a smile.

Lilianna stepped forward, her eyes gleaming with admiration for Sauron.

"Bren, you're really amazing. All the members of our team are very grateful to you," Lilianna said sincerely.

"Lord Bren, if you don't mind, could you leave us with a way to contact you? If we obtain any amethyst, we can come find you," Monica seized the opportunity to ask.

Sauron smiled slightly, agreeing to Monica's request.

"My name is Bren Vesk, a junior of Hiltin Vesk, the Thousand-Knight Commander. If you need to find me, you can go to the Prince's Guard garrison in Fulga City to look for me."

As soon as Sauron finished introducing his identity, all the women's eyes sparkled.

The reason was simple: the Thousand-Knight Commanders of the Royal Guard Knights were at least eighth-order Grand Knights, each a famous figure known throughout the land.

Hiltin immediately wore a bitter face after Sauron left, appearing somewhat worried.

"Your Highness, you've given me too great an identity; I'm afraid I can't bear it."

Anka couldn't help but secretly snicker beside him, knowing that Hiltin's worries were not without reason.

Sauron looked at them, saying with a serious expression, "You figure it out yourself. You absolutely cannot reveal my identity. I still have a use for these girls."

Hiltin and Anka exchanged glances, simultaneously emitting an auntie-like laugh.

Clearly, the two of them had misunderstood, misinterpreting Sauron's words.

Sauron was too lazy to explain, directly leading the group back to Fulga City.

As soon as he returned to the city, Sauron had people summon Yaso and Corena.

"I obtained a good item that can test cultivation talent," Sauron explained the function of the testing crystal pillar to the two, then began testing them.

Jennifer also watched with great interest, filled with curiosity about this novel thing.

Corena's cultivation talent was very high, an eighth-level fire attribute.

This was not much different from what Sauron had expected, after all, Corena was also a Saint-realm expert in the later stages of the game.

Yaso's talent was not good.

"Fourth-level water attribute." Seeing this talent, the corner of Sauron's mouth couldn't help but twitch.

Yaso also became somewhat apprehensive.
