The Shelter Game: Me, Starting with a Tenfold Drop Rate

Irving once again forcibly activated the power of the Taikoo Flame Pearl. With the assistance of the Taikoo Flame Pearl, Irving\'s mental strength was rapidly rejuvenating.

With sufficient mental power, Irving could then smoothly harness the chaos power alongside Vicky.

Such actions by Irving were, of course, unacceptable to the ancestors of the Smith family.

The ancestor of the Smith family chose to replace Irving at the fastest speed possible.

He delved the chaos power he possessed into the deepest recesses of Irving\'s body, attempting to sever the bond between the Taikoo Flame Pearl and Irving using this chaos power.

Naturally, these actions did not escape Irving\'s notice.

However, Irving did not stop the ancestor\'s actions.

In Irving\'s view, the ancestor\'s moves provided a rare opportunity.

When the chaos power of the Smith family ancestor completely encircled the Taikoo Flame Pearl, Irving suddenly merged his consciousness into the Taikoo Flame Pearl.

The chaos power under Irving\'s control instantly became unowned.

"Now is the time! Quickly take control of the chaos power I\'ve relinquished!"

As Irving\'s consciousness merged with the Taikoo Flame Pearl, he communicated his plan to Vicky.

Vicky understood Irving\'s plan almost instantaneously.

Without any hesitation, she utilized her Smith family bloodline to control the chaos power that Irving had relinquished.

At this moment, Vicky had mastered chaos power far surpassing that of the Smith family ancestor.

Vicky then wielded her newly acquired chaos power to envelop the chaos power controlled by the Smith family ancestor.

After Vicky had made all arrangements, Irving activated the Taikoo Flame Pearl.

With the combined efforts of the Taikoo Flame Pearl and Vicky\'s chaos power, the Smith family ancestor, along with the chaos power he controlled, was instantly expelled from Irving\'s body.

The Smith family ancestor was caught completely off guard by the actions of Vicky and Irving.

By the time the Smith family ancestor realized what had happened, he had already been driven out of Irving\'s body.

At this moment, the Smith family ancestor neither possessed the formidable chaos power nor could he seek refuge by re-entering Irving\'s body.

"You disgraceful daughter! You have no right to call yourself a descendant of the Smith family! To think you would collaborate with an outsider to oppose your own ancestor!"

The ancestor of the Smith family found his powers greatly diminished, to the point where he couldn\'t even maintain his previous form.

Yet, he still furiously rebuked Vicky.

Vicky, of course, didn\'t care in the slightest about what the Smith family ancestor had said.

Irving didn\'t give the ancestor a moment to catch his breath.

After expelling him from his body, Irving swiftly shifted his consciousness back from the Taikoo Flame Pearl to his own body.

The moment he regained control, Irving immediately pulled out the [Staff of Calamity].

With a swing of the staff, one fiery fireball after another sped towards the direction of the Smith family ancestor.

At the same time, Irving unleashed the skill, Gravity Swamp.

Gravity Swamp slowed the ancestor\'s movements, making it impossible for him to dodge the intensified fireballs, now doubly enhanced by the Taikoo Flame Pearl and the chaos power.

As fireball after fireball struck, the figure of the Smith family ancestor became increasingly ethereal. Yet, he was not completely destroyed.

"He cannot be destroyed by us. As long as he remains in this realm, he can continually draw on the surrounding chaos power for support! All we can do now is seal him away." Vicky\'s voice echoed again in Irving\'s mind.

Irving nodded and threw a half of the primal tome towards the Smith family ancestor.

Mid-flight, Irving used the [Staff of Calamity] to activate the sealing spell recorded in the tome.

One by one, pure white ethereal gates emerged from the book.

These phantom gates encircled the Smith family ancestor.

The ancestor, not willing to give up, shouted at Irving and Vicky, "Do not seal me away! I can be of great assistance to you! I can help you defeat the Night Blades."

During his possession of Irving, the Smith family ancestor had accessed part of Irving\'s memories.

This knowledge made him aware that Irving\'s most pressing issue was the confrontation with the Night Blades.

Irving just scoffed coldly at the ancestor\'s words.

"I will never trust anything you say. You have no credibility in my eyes!"

Irving did not stop his assault.

Irving relentlessly used the summoned fireballs to suppress the Smith family ancestor. This barrage left the ancestor with no energy to counter the ethereal white gates that emerged from the primal tome.

As the phantom gates closed around him, the Smith family ancestor\'s figure was finally sealed within a crystal-like cube.

The moment the ancestor was sealed, Irving could feel the surrounding chaos power rapidly dissipating.

At the same time, not far away, Vicky regained consciousness.

Irving quickly rushed to Vicky\'s side, his face marked with concern as he asked, "How are you feeling? Are your injuries severe? Just hang in there for a moment. I will get you help immediately."

Vicky, smiling gently at Irving, shook her head, "I\'m not seriously injured, just a bit dizzy. Besides, I\'m a life mage who specializes in healing. I can recover slowly on my own."

Under Irving\'s watchful eye, Vicky slowly stood up from the ground.

Even though Vicky claimed her injuries were not severe, Irving still felt it was critical to leave the area quickly.

"We need to leave this place as quickly as possible. Even though the Smith family ancestor has been sealed, the chaos power here can still corrode us."

With Vicky\'s assistance, Irving had been able to control the chaos power smoothly. However, during the process, he felt the chaos power\'s corrosive effects.

It seemed to be a force capable of contending with the power of the Taikoo Flame Pearl.

Even the Taikoo Flame Pearl couldn\'t completely shield against the corruption of the chaos power.

Thus, Irving was very cautious about using chaos power.

This time, Vicky did not object, as she too felt it was too dangerous to stay.

"Should we take this crystal cube with us? After all, it contains my family\'s ancestor sealed within it. If Elder Seville returns here and releases the seal, it\'s possible that my ancestor could join forces with him and turn against us."

Vicky\'s concerns were indeed valid.

Irving, without any hesitation, placed the crystal containing the Smith family ancestor into his pocket.

"You\'re right. We should take this sealing crystal with us. First, I\'ll take you back to the Ocean Group\'s headquarters building to rest. I\'ll go alone to rescue your grandfather! Your grandfather should know how to handle the crystal sealing your family\'s ancestor."

Irving quickly formulated his next steps.

Although he and Vicky had successfully sealed the ancestor of the Smith family through perfect cooperation, Elder Seville was still alive and active. His plan to acquire chaos power had failed.

But his directive for the Night Blades to destroy all official organizations in the city of warding was still underway.

Vicky nodded without speaking.

She deeply wished she could accompany Irving to rescue her grandfather, but she was acutely aware of her physical condition.

The recent battle had taken a severe toll on her, and she knew that joining Irving now would only hinder his efforts.

Thus, Irving and Vicky quickly returned to the headquarters building of the Ocean Group.

Simultaneously, a disheveled Elder Seville hurried back to the Smith family\'s villa in the suburbs of the city of warding.

He found Donald.

The moment Donald saw Elder Seville, he could tell from his expression that his plan had not succeeded.

"It seems your plan has ultimately failed. I told you, my granddaughter is very clever. You cannot defeat her easily."

Donald said, despite being under the control of the Night Blades. He did not believe the Night Blades would dare to kill him outright, so he felt bold enough to taunt Elder Seville.

Elder Seville, with a grim expression, turned his gaze to Donald.

"My plan has only just begun. Even if your granddaughter stopped my scheme to obtain the Smith family treasure, it doesn\'t mean she can thwart my other plans. As long as we, the Night Blades, can destroy all official organizations in the city of warding. I will then have more time to slowly claim your family\'s treasure."

After saying this, Elder Seville ordered his subordinates to take Donald away.

He was well aware that Irving would soon arrive. If he couldn\'t take Donald with him, it was very likely that Irving would rescue him.

"Elder, what about the other one?" Elder Seville had only ordered that Donald be taken away, without specifying what to do with Benjamin. Therefore, a member of the Night Blades directly asked Elder Seville how to handle Benjamin.

Elder Seville glanced at Benjamin, his tone icy.

"He is of no use to us. Taking him along would only slow us down. You know what to do!" With that, Elder Seville departed with the other Night Blades members.

Left behind at the Smith family villa were some of the less powerful members of the Night Blades.

"Elder Seville said he is of no use to us. So let\'s just kill him and take all his gear," directed one of the Night Blades squad leaders to his teammates.

The Night Blades members then surrounded Benjamin in the center, with his hands and feet already bound.

He could only glare at the surrounding Night Blades members with angry eyes.

"Your glares can\'t kill us! Just accept your fate. No one is coming to save you!" the squad leader of the Night Blades said arrogantly.
