Chapter 346: The Holy Kingdom's Intervention, Initial Success
Author: Amnesty L
In the corridor of the guest rooms on the first floor of the Black Castle.
Clementine was returning to her room. Her broken arm was already healed—the other party was a faith-based magic caster, after all, and naturally knew healing magic.
Bastard!
What kind of magic caster could catch her piercing attack with his bare hands?
He was a complete and utter monster!
At this thought, Clementine's lips curled upwards, revealing a perverse smile.
"Oh?"
Clementine's eyes narrowed as she noticed a dark figure standing ahead in the corridor.
The new captain of the Sunlight Scripture, Ian!
"I couldn't quite sleep this late at night."
Captain Ian said with a smile, speaking as if it were a chance encounter while covertly sizing up Clementine.
*Bang!*
Expressionless, Clementine returned to her room and shut the door.
He'd been given the cold shoulder.
Captain Ian scratched his short, silver hair and gave a wry smile, a profound glint flashing in his eyes.
He seriously doubted Clementine had left late at night just for a stroll!
"Given Clementine's personality, she wouldn't have held back, yet I heard no sounds of battle."
"After all, that Lord Tang is a powerful individual in the Heroic Realm. It's perfectly normal that she couldn't find an opportunity to strike."
Captain Ian put his hands in his pockets, thinking silently.
Based on the outcome, at least, it was impossible to take him by force anymore. No matter what happened, they could only resort to the second plan tomorrow and offer an apology first.
Ian mused for a moment and sighed deeply. It was a good thing he had prepared multiple plans.
On the top floor of the castle.
Tang Zheng rested his hands on the windowsill, a cold smirk playing on his lips.
"Although Clementine's actions were of her own volition, it's not as if the Slane Theocracy didn't want to see this happen."
"The Slane Theocracy's emphasis on the 'Blend Potion' has exceeded my previous expectations, to the point where they'd even resort to such methods."
"It seems I made the right move in dragging the Holy Kingdom into this."
Tang Zheng grew more curious. Just how far had the Slane Theocracy's research into the "Blend Potion" progressed?
After all, with the power of an entire nation, many of his previously unconfirmed speculations, and even effects he hadn't noticed, could be rapidly verified.
However, compared to the "Blend Potion," what Tang Zheng valued more right now was the [Heart of the True Dragon Lord].
"Rather than letting a pawn like Clementine be wasted in Zuranon, it would be more useful to plant her within the Theocracy."
Tang Zheng raised his left hand and looked at the two fingers that had just caught the stiletto. They were trembling imperceptibly. He chuckled softly.
[Skill Points: 109→107]
By consuming two skill points, Tang Zheng mastered the two Martial Arts Clementine had just used: "Gale Acceleration" and "Gale Stride."
One could temporarily increase Agility by 20 points, the other by 30. Activating both skills together could increase Agility by 50 points.
Very practical Martial Arts!
Deep within the Southern Mountains.
Tang Zheng continued his experiments. Since the people from the Theocracy were willing to wait, he would let them wait.
"Roar!"
The figure of a giant golden dragon appeared again, roaring as it circled in mid-air.
Immediately after!
The golden dragon spat the Dragon Man Ladon from its mouth.
Tang Zheng fell from mid-air to the ground, his health points dropping rapidly. He hurriedly cast the Healing Magic, "Greater Healing," just as he had before.
Carefully sensing the unstable state of his aura, Tang Zheng still couldn't grasp that feeling.
"Still not right."
"I feel like something is missing."
Tang Zheng furrowed his brow. Having been prepared, this experiment wasn't without its gains.
"My health points plummeted because I lacked the two important mediums, the Dragon Man Ladon and the [Heart of the True Dragon Lord]. Maintaining the giant dragon form just now was actually consuming my own health points."
"If I can maintain the giant dragon form for a longer period, perhaps I can grasp that inexplicable aura."
Tang Zheng wasn't entirely sure, because this method was quite difficult.
He triggered the [Heart of the True Dragon Lord] entirely by borrowing the power of the Dragon Man Ladon. After the transformation, he would quickly reject the latter, making it impossible to maintain the form for long.
"Perhaps I can use a ritual."
Tang Zheng decided to try a different approach. "The Wild Transformation Ritual can absorb flesh and blood to sustain the transformation. Although I've experimented with it before, it only has an effect on wild beasts or monsters."
To be honest!
Although Tang Zheng knew how to use these rituals, it would be presumptuous to say he fully understood them.
The "Wild Transformation Ritual" only affects wild beasts and monsters. Tang Zheng still hadn't figured out the principle behind this.
It was like a skill in a game that only works under specific conditions.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
Mid-Wind Month, May 4th.
Ten days had passed since he reached Level 50.
[Experience Bar: 16,720,000 / 780,000]
He had gained 15 million experience, and adding the previously remaining experience points, the total was approaching 20 million.
...
——The Holy Kingdom.
The capital, Hebonsc.
Three days ago, the message Tang Zheng had the Green Leaf Witch deliver had already appeared on Holy Queen Calca's conference table.
The matter concerned the Slane Theocracy! It was also related to the "Blend Potion" they had obtained from Tang Zheng and lost a month ago. Holy Queen Calca had no choice but to take it seriously.
As was her custom, Holy Queen Calca first summoned Kelart and Remedios.
"The Slane Theocracy! I knew it was them!"
Remedios's furious voice echoed in the room, carrying a hint of cold Killing Intent.
To be attacked within their country's borders and lose such an important item was a disgrace for Remedios, the Captain of the Holy Knight Order!
Kelart and Holy Queen Calca, on the other hand, were much calmer.
"Your Majesty Calca, Kelart, you already knew?" Remedios quickly noticed something was off and asked in astonishment.
"Hehe."
Kelart gave a sinister smile. "It wasn't hard to guess, sister."
"Then before, why..." Remedios was both shocked and angry.
"Our relationship with the Slane Theocracy is already poor."
"Furthermore, we were attacked within the Kingdom's borders. Even if we brought this matter to light, it would only bring us harm, not benefits."
Kelart pointed out the crux of the matter. Though she said this, she still bit her lip, her eyes flickering.
Having to swallow this grievance also made Kelart extremely unhappy!
"Leader Tang of Free Will passed this information to us..." Holy Queen Calca began, her pristine white teeth barely parting.
As a queen, what Holy Queen Calca cared about more was the meaning revealed behind this incident.
