Chapter 243: Chapter 169: One Door, Three Legends, Dominating the Eastern Territory_2
But the remains he left behind became materials to reinforce the Abyss Gate, making that gateway even more stable and bringing many problems there."
Selena explained Noah’s confusion, the reason the Abyss Gate hasn’t been resolved is that the Demon Lords are much more reckless compared to devils, those guys simply don’t know what death is.
However, they inherently have no concept of death, any Demon Lord favored by the Abyss Will, even if their true body is destroyed, can be reborn and resurrected in the Abyss Blood Pool, albeit at the cost of permanently losing part of their power.
"This needs to be resolved, otherwise it remains a problem!"
Noah appeared quite worried, because of the threat between Hell and the Abyss, it’s hard to say which is greater.
Demons, with their chaotic minds, may still slaughter each other, but their numbers, in a way, are endless; no Material Realm can compete with the Abyss in a war of attrition.
"This is not our concern, the Augustus family’s efforts have already been sufficient, this calamity is for the other legends and all gods to bring to order."
Selena appeared very indifferent, with an attitude as if it had nothing to do with her, which was entirely understandable; her husband had already destroyed two Gates of Hell, but the only less threatening Abyss Gate remains unresolved to this day.
Does this mean that she has to resolve it? What a joke! What are the other legends doing? What use do the gods have after collecting so much faith?
"You as well, you’re not allowed to go!"
Seemingly sensing some of Noah’s thoughts, his foster mother warned him in advance,
"Don’t think that after your recent dormant evolution and acquiring stronger power, you can contend with legends and act recklessly, you may be a bit stronger than that Red Dragon, but not by much."
"I know my own limits, I have a clear understanding of my strengths, how could I try to destroy the Abyss Gate, that’s simply not my role."
Noah expressed his great self-awareness, then his demeanor changed, showing immense curiosity,
"What’s up with this Red Dragon? What discoveries have you made from your research on it?"
"It’s the best live material I’ve had so far!"
Mentioning Flame Prison Tyrant Quetone, Selena’s eyes turned into crescent moons, appearing extremely happy, vibrant, as if she was a lively flower swaying and blooming in the radiant sunlight,
"Its flesh has high vitality, grows very fast, and its bloodline has strong infectiousness, a characteristic shared among your Dragon Species, but it’s particularly evident in him."
"In that case..."
Having participated in numerous spell research and experiments, Noah’s expression instantly turned subtle, showing some surprise upon hearing his foster mother’s words,
"Doesn’t that mean the project I’m leading can be further improved?"
"Exactly, its Dragon Blood can complete your conception, allowing you to create Dragon Beasts with strong offensiveness, high intelligence, and faster growth rates."
"What about the drawbacks?"
"Their lifespan will be shorter, isn’t that obvious?"
Selena rolled her eyes at Noah,
"The price for rapid growth is a shortened lifespan, I’ve already experimented with silver moths, rock ground mice, and male goblins. Any creature infected by this Red Dragon’s blood, as long as they survive, will have a greatly enhanced and strengthened combat ability.
But their vitality burns up in a very short time. However, before their vitality is exhausted, the combat ability of these infected creatures will remain at the maximum level their physique can withstand.
But once they start to decline, life can quickly wither and end, with a shorter aging period than normal life. However, for war beasts, even if it’s only a few years, it’s more than enough."
"Indeed."
Noah nodded in agreement.
Not to mention, back in the battles against Hellish Demons, even the Elite Knight Order carefully nurtured by the Augustus family, their mounts and weapons armors were high-loss consumables.
Not only mounts, but even the knights in such caliber battlefields were just advanced cannon fodder, sacrificed for strategic objectives.
Therefore, the mounts of frontline knights, with a remnant lifespan of five to ten years of maturity, were enough, no need to consider further.
"Therefore, all projects related to Dragon Beast development will be left to you."
"Me?"
"Yeah, aren’t you very interested in it?"
"I am indeed interested, but why give it all to me? Aunt, what will you do?"
"I have more important things to research, like the origin of this Red Dragon’s bloodline mutation. Don’t compete with me; I always do more than you. Besides, you have nothing else to do."
"Alright!"
After awakening, just a brief tour outside caused the fall of a legend and the imprisonment of a Red Dragon Lord with power comparable to a legend, reduced to experimental material, Noah remained in Mage City, no longer venturing out.
His purpose has been fulfilled; although he didn’t travel far, that battle has already made his reputation rise in the Eastern Territory.
Letting many legends outside know, the Augustus family has gained another legendary power. Whether Noah’s realm is legend or not is not important, the current capability to fight is key.
Three legends in one family.
Although one legend might be questionable, his attack power proven by obliterating another legend highlights the strength of the Titan Bloodline again.
The other two legends, being a Spellcaster Legend and a Dragon Clan Legend, are formidable enough to take on multiple foes at once.
Now, these three legends share the same stance, such family power stands among the top even in the Xilantia Continent, not just in the Eastern Territory, their will sets the trend.
The establishment of a kingdom is already on the agenda, the coronation of Tidel is in discussion, the first Augustus King, which Noah anticipates, is about to be born.
Under such conditions, what else could Noah do? Naturally, conduct research diligently, make money, and develop the territory.
After years of war, hiring Ancient Dragons multiple times, even with discounts for fighting evil brethren, nearly emptied Noah’s reserves, leaving him destitute.
Though Noah possesses the magic statue industry, a foundational economic pillar equivalent to continuous streams of gold, his need for money is not as urgent.
It’s the territory development aspect that deserves more of Noah’s attention and investment.
Noah’s original territory was the entire Elidis Mountain range, considered a barbaric area, with nothing deserving Noah’s investment.
The Wisdom Race residing there was only the Cloud Giant, apart from extraordinary beasts and monsters Noah found pleasing.
What’s there to fuss over?
Oh, and the two thousand or so mortals Silver Dragon Raphael once spent considerable effort to relocate here, but still lacked room for operations; even with stunning talent, the annual economic benefit couldn’t buy a single clay magic statue.
However, things changed after years of war, in times of chaos, the territory protected by the Golden Dragon became the ideal refuge for many refugees, the legendary land of peace.
So, when Tidel began preparing for coronation, Noah instructed the fairies under his command to inventory the intelligent species in the territory, receiving extremely surprising data.
The human-like intelligent races numbered nearly half a million, and among them, humans accounted for only about three hundred thousand, while the remaining hundred ninety thousand primarily consisted of elves, dwarves, and gnomes, humanoid races with higher basic qualities.
This highly intrigued Noah, a population of hundreds of thousands, shaped like a spindle and dominated by young adults, offered plenty of room for manipulation.
