Chapter 370: Chapter 233: Cloud City, Undead Phoenix
"Auntie, could you please not cause me trouble? I invited you here to help me, not to make fun of me."
Although Noah used his identity as a Golden Dragon and the Metallic Dragon Race’s long-established reputation to resolve unnecessary conflicts and peacefully coexist with the War Angels on the battleship, he could still feel those scrutinizing and even hostile gazes.
Every species has a tendency to worship the strong, admiring those they perceive as powerful and setting them as their ultimate goal.
The Angels, despite being a unique race, couldn’t avoid this inclination to worship strength either. Ophelia admired her father, while her subordinates admired their Legion Leader.
What is the consequence of disparaging or insulting the object of admiration of an intelligent being?
It’s akin to insulting the god that a devout believer worships. While not as exaggerated, the risk is equally significant.
Although what Selena said was true, the Angels present had no idea about this, and not everyone can accept such truths, as it’s akin to the collapse of one’s faith.
"What trouble did I cause for you? Look, aren’t you getting along with the Angels quite well?"
Selena was nonchalant, and seeing Noah’s annoyed expression, her eyes curved into crescent moons, revealing her great mood.
"Where did you see that I got along well with them? If I hadn’t proven my identity as a Golden Dragon, these Angels would have fired upon us."
"At worst, you could fight them. Can’t you deal with these little Angels?"
"Does that sound reasonable to you? I came all the way here to visit my child, and I haven’t even met them yet, and I’m supposed to beat up my partner’s subordinates first?"
"Eh? Are you and that Great Angel partners?"
"We already have a child, so how can we not be partners?"
Noah recalled his adoptive mother’s extremely suggestive words earlier and couldn’t help but grind his Dragon Teeth.
He and Ophelia had a willing and proper relationship, yet being called ’lovers’ made what they did seem so shadowy and shameful, further agitating the War Angels.
"Did you have a wedding? Did you invite family and friends to witness it?"
The girl stood barefoot on the ship’s edge and glanced back at the suddenly halted Golden Dragon,
"You didn’t do any of that, right? So, what makes you partners? Isn’t this just a lover’s relationship?"
"By that standard, are Annabelle and the others my lovers too?"
"Aren’t they?"
"Of course not. They are my acknowledged partners; when have I ever wronged them?"
Noah’s voice raised a bit, catching the attention of Angels on the Futian Battleship. His conversation with Selena had become the focal point of the ship.
"You don’t need to explain to me. I don’t care if you find more lovers."
The returning Futian Battleship had already passed through the forming Space Gate, coming back to the shipyard filled with Holy Power. This was a Floating City drifting in the sky, and the shipyard the battleship was docking with was just one of its many inconspicuous war facilities.
"Wow, a Floating City!"
Selena’s attention was instantly captured by the sacred city before her eyes, and even Noah couldn’t help but stare unblinkingly at the city right in front of him.
The holy light pillar he just saw originated from the core of this Floating City. In this land eroded by the Abyss, the Floating City dominated by pure white was the last chance for the world.
It radiated a dazzling and holy light, like a sharp sword, emitting a dawn-like glow, trying to reinfuse vitality and hope into this land.
"How does it feel?"
Selena nudged Noah, whose size had reduced to less than ten meters, akin to a fledgling, yet no longer as immature as before.
"It’s a very beautiful city, a perfect piece of art, much better than the Mage City we built."
The appreciation instinct stemming from his Dragon Species bloodline kicked in. The architectural style of the Floating City before him bore a classical beauty, with building outlines that were grand and smooth, yet not lacking in elegance.
The towering spires and magnificent halls highlighted the Angels’ ultimate aesthetic, surpassing many other races in the worlds.
The wall-like structures were made from a material similar to transparent crystal, requiring no light to burst forth with a hazy pale gold radiance, adding a sense of holiness to the entire city.
The most intriguing aspect of this Floating City was the golden Angel statues scattered across various areas. These statues, diverse in forms, whether they were about to take flight or holding a Holy Artifact, all exuded a sort of vitality as if they could come to life at any moment.
"I didn’t ask you to compare. I asked if you have the confidence to replicate it."
"Absolutely not. With what would I replicate it? Even if we had the blueprints, we couldn’t build it."
Hearing his adoptive mother’s outlandish inquiry, Noah responded without holding back.
To say the least, he didn’t even have any confidence in creating similar statues given that the Angel statues were across various regions of the city, even though he was currently considered a master of Magic Statue creation.
"No ambition."
"It’s lack of funds."
Noah corrected.
He could understand a Legendary Mage’s longing for a Floating City, but the Floating City of Angels before him was clearly an enhanced version of the Floating Cities built on the canon of the Arcane Empire’s Legendary Mages, showcasing further advancements.
