Chapter 355: Chapter 225 Alexander’s Ambition_2
Wanting to gain father’s recognition is truly too difficult. In comparison, relying on one’s own hard strength to rise is more secure.
"The child from those years is now a Prince with ambition."
After concluding his communication with Alexander, Noah remarked with a sigh. However, this was exactly what he hoped for. With the status of the eldest son, possessing both virtue and capability, it would be quite disappointing if he didn’t even have this thought.
"Truly remarkable!"
No surprise, when Alexander proposed to build the Great Wall and recruit the alien race to assemble the Slave Army, he indeed faced a lot of criticism and opposition when applying to Uranos, but Uranos still agreed to Alexander’s request.
Since then, the Prince of the Atlas Kingdom has been stationed at the northwestern border, and as for how long he would need to guard it, that depends on when the great disaster in the north could end. In the short term, there seems to be no hope.
In the lively and bustling north of the continent, a Knight Order on the verge of being forgotten quietly entered Elisium City.
"Is it really the Holy Dragon who summoned us?"
The girl sitting in the carriage looked up, observing the city that no longer built walls, with hope and anticipation in her eyes, but also a trace of fear and anxiety.
"Of course. Do you think Wayne would deceive us?"
The coachman, swinging the whip, laughed heartily upon hearing the girl’s inquiry from behind.
"Not that I think Wayne would deceive us, I just find it too incredible."
"If the captain hadn’t personally come to find us, I wouldn’t have believed it, no matter what."
"Indeed, it’s the Holy Dragon. How could he possibly need us?"
"Don’t think of the Holy Dragon as too sacred. He is a Lord Dragon, and lords always need people to handle unclean matters. We are a very good choice."
"That may be so, but even if the Holy Dragon needs to do dirty work, it’s not for us."
The carriage was filled with Tifflins, whispering to each other. They now seemed like a group of rural workers, eyes brimming with yearning and longing for a bright future.
"Don’t you guys know yet?"
"Know what?"
"Our Wayne, the captain, is actually a descendant of the Augustus family left outside."
"What?"
"Don’t speak recklessly."
The sudden revelation caused the carriage to erupt into exclamations of surprise.
"Think about it carefully, it makes sense, doesn’t it? Otherwise, why would a group of bottom-dwellers like us be allowed to serve the noble Holy Dragon? There wouldn’t be a shortage of people wanting to do dirty work for the Holy Dragon. Why would it be us?"
"Why wouldn’t it be you?"
A calm aura erupted in the carriage, and a man seemingly an embodiment of darkness stepped out from the shadows, glancing coldly at everyone. The crowd fell silent, not daring to say another word,
"You all underestimate yourselves too much!"
"Captain, they say you are a member of the Augustus family, is that true?"
Amidst the silence in the carriage, a voice that sounded naive and ignorant asked, from a chestnut-haired girl with a few traces of baby fat on her cheeks, looking tender, pure, and stunningly beautiful.
"No."
Wayne denied it outright, then added,
"I have no connections with the Augustus family."
"See, I told you they’re spreading rumors."
Wayne’s gaze followed the girl’s eyes to a burly man, who cringed and didn’t dare to look back at him, only then did Wayne snort coldly and vanish from the carriage.
"Hulk, you’re lying and deceiving people!"
"What’s in your head? Can you use it and think for a moment? If there really was no relation, why would the captain have such a big reaction?"
While the members of the Judgement Knight Order discussed the captain’s heritage, Wayne had already gone ahead to report to Noah,
"Have you gathered all your old troops?"
"Most of them have arrived, but there is a small portion that just wishes to lead a peaceful life."
"How many do you have now?"
"Eighty-seven people, including fifteen of Silver High Rank, sixty-nine of Radiant Gold, and two of Extreme Intent."
"Wow, impressive, a true Golden Knight Order. You are quite good at running things, even without a fixed territory, managing to gather such a large group."
"It’s nothing much."
Though this isn’t the peak strength of the Knight Order he established, Wayne didn’t boast because even at its peak, the Knight Order couldn’t compete against any organized armed force under the Holy Dragon.
Tips to furious fight against Steel Magic Statue of Great Fairies with Hell Bloodline’s Tifflins are silly. Let alone Dragon Fairies.
Highly dragonified fairies could crush a Dragon Vein Mage of the same rank with sheer physical power, abnormally ferocious and fierce.
"Since everyone’s here, could you ask if anyone would like to volunteer? I have a bloodline experiment project here needing participants."
The calm tone of the Giant Dragon instantly struck a nerve with Wayne. As golden arcs tingled on the young man, he recalled many unpleasant memories,
"Bloodline experiment?"
"Yes, an experiment on stripping bloodlines."
Noah nonchalantly revealed the specific aim of the experiment, seeming unaware of his grandnephew’s emotional swing.
"Stripping bloodlines? Is this something achievable?"
Upon hearing this, Wayne’s emotions gradually steadied, then realized the significance of this technology to him, and urgently asked.
"Of course, there was already a successful case before you were born. However, the circumstances of that success were too special and can’t serve as a reference standard, so we need to collect more data."
"Who?"
Wayne instinctively asked.
"Your great-grandfather."
"That’s impossible..."
Even though he did not acknowledge his family, Wayne certainly wasn’t unfamiliar with the pioneer who led the family to glorious heights. More than familiar, he held this founder in high admiration.
"There’s nothing impossible about it. This is actually a way of bloodline awakening, except currently, only your great-grandfather achieved it. Hence, we decided to lower the technology’s threshold to benefit more beings."
"Is there a life risk in participating in the experiment?"
"Normally, there’s no life risk, but I can’t provide an absolute guarantee in such matters."
"Can I?"
Wayne stepped forward.
"You? Certainly not, you know how special you are? Even if it succeeded on you, what difference does it make? It would just waste experimental resources."
Noah directly rejected this grandnephew.
"I’ll go back and ask for their opinions."
For every Tifflin, stripping away the Hell Bloodline might be their lifelong wish.
"There’s a limited number of places, up to ten, not waiting past due."
Seeing his nephew’s indifferent behavior, Noah delivered a punchline,
"You must seize the opportunity..."
When Noah still wanted to say more, a sudden pause came over the Golden Dragon, who looked towards the northern continent.
At the same time, in Uther Palace, within the Elf Court, among the towers surrounded by stars... one after another of powerful beings, like Noah, looked toward the northern Xilantia Continent.
They all felt a powerful will awakening in the northern frozen polar area. Just a moment of its revival incited a disturbance that swept across the continent and even encompassed the world.
However, this effect was very slight. Not to mention ordinary beings, even legends, at least of the Seventh Rank, could only notice the change.
"Witch Demon King?"
Noah sensed the aura from the north, carrying an endless desolation within the icy chill, finally realizing a significant entity seemed to accompany the meteor showers that descended on the northern continent.
