Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire.

Chapter 213: Holy Dragon Faith, Wanderer Returns Home

In order to take the feelings of the person involved into consideration, Noah could only go around and ask Edith, but the Queen Mother only knew the general idea and was not very clear about the details.

"Half-step legend?"

When Noah learned about Wayne's extraordinary realm, he just felt it was outrageous.
"How old is he?"

However, it is normal to be able to use the devil's talent of devouring souls and growing frequently without regard for consequences and costs. It can even be said that it is very restrained and rational to have such progress.

"I'm already thirty years old."

Edith, as a grandmother, responded to Noah's sigh. This was her most outstanding descendant at present. The demigod granddaughter who was blessed by the Seven Gods and the eldest grandson who was known as the Golden Dragon Knight were both unable to compete with him. The gap in realm was too big.

Because of the blessing of the Seven Gods, Parvati's life span is the same as that of the high elves, or even longer, so her growth rate is very slow. Her powerful combat power basically comes from the artifacts bestowed by the gods.

Alexander received the gift of Noah's true blood. After his life form was transformed, his combat power increased dramatically, but his growth rate also slowed down.

This is the price that must be paid after obtaining a higher life form. Of course, it cannot be said to be a price. As the scale of life increases, the growth cycle will naturally increase as well. This is actually a very enviable thing for short-lived species.

"Thirty years old, that's really young!"

At this age, even for short-lived species, it has nothing to do with the word "old", let alone for immortal species like dragons. If it is an ancestral dragon, it is still in the infant stage.

"Why does Urnos suddenly want to recognize Wayne? Didn't he not care before?"

The king, who was high above, suddenly cast his eyes and paid attention to his son, whom he had always ignored and neglected, and wanted to recognize him.

"Wayne has awakened the Titan bloodline."

The Queen Mother calmly explained the reason, and Noah nodded calmly, remaining composed and not at all shocked by the news. This was normal.

If it wasn't for the awakening of the Titan bloodline, why would the noble King of Atlas suddenly acknowledge an heir with a distinct aura of hell?

This had a huge impact on his reputation, the kingdom, and the Augustus family. However, in the face of awakening the Titan bloodline, all negative impacts could be ignored.

The fourth generation of the Augustus family. Before Wayne, no one had awakened the Titan bloodline. Now one has finally appeared. No matter what problems he has, they are not a problem in front of the Titan bloodline.

However, Urnos could ignore external influences and recognize his son because of his Titan bloodline, but he also ignored the feelings of his offspring.

He arrogantly believed that becoming the heir of the Prince of Atlas and returning to the glory of the Augustus family would bring back the child who had grown up alone for many years.

Unfortunately, he overestimated the appeal of these identities and honors to a person who had long been excluded and suppressed by the civilized world. Then, for the first time, he felt the rebellion and resistance from the child.

Although Wuornos was already a father many years ago, unfortunately, he never knew how to be a proper father.

He was used to putting himself in a higher position and dealing with all problems with a strong attitude. However, when he tried to regain the position of father in the heart of a long-abandoned son of hell in the same way, he was met with very fierce resistance.

Such resistance directly shattered certain perceptions that the king had always held in his heart, causing the King of Atlas to fall into a state of self-doubt.

Edith didn't know what the father and son communicated in private, and Noah naturally had no way of knowing, but he knew that in this confrontation between father and son, Wayne used violent means to resist his father who had never appeared in his memory, and escaped unscathed.

Judging from the results, Urnos never used his full strength. He held back too much. Otherwise, Wayne would not have been able to escape. Even if he had awakened his Titan bloodline, the gap in realm was absolute.

Unless one has a complete mythological lineage like Noah, then one can trample on the existing power system with a clear conscience.

"Where is Wayne now?"

After learning that a blood awakener appeared in the fourth generation of the Augustus family, Noah didn't believe that Urnos would continue to let it go.

No matter how touched Urnos was, he would not let him go. This monarch was extremely rational and could not continue to be immersed in the sadness of not being recognized by his offspring.

"I don't know."

Edith shook her head. She just paid attention to the incident but did not intervene. She didn't know what she could do.

"You are the Queen Mother, why don't you care about anything?"

Noah complained.

"I am the Queen Mother, but I am only the Queen Mother. This is just one of my identities. Who do you think I need to manage now? Who else can I manage?

Whether it's Wuornos or Wayne, they are not children. Let them handle their own affairs. "

Edith did not give Noah a good tone at this time. After asking two questions, she directly expressed her attitude towards the matter.

She had no intention of intervening in the matter as an elder. If it weren't for the fact that the main participant in the incident was her direct bloodline, she wouldn't have cared about it.

This is a queen mother who has very little desire for power. This is naturally a good thing for the country, as it allows power to be more concentrated.

However, the Queen Mother's desires were too low. Even when such a big thing happened, she just sat firmly in her palace and didn't care about anything.

"You have a point."

Noah admitted this, but he was also unwilling to accept it. He had tasted the melon, but the melon he had tasted was not complete, and his information channels had not returned to the period when Teddel's goblins were in power.

Even though such a big thing happened, although he could see part of the truth, he had no way of knowing the whole thing. This feeling made Noah very uncomfortable.

Where is Wayne?

This is the question that Jin Long wants to know most now. Half-step legend has grown to such a level. Noah feels that it is time for him to contact him and have a chat.

"find him."

This was the order Noah gave to his followers after he finished communicating with the royal capital.

Although his influence in the Atlas Kingdom was greatly reduced due to the deliberate weakening by his eldest nephew, his reputation in the territory formerly ruled by the Augustus family has reached an unprecedented new height. Even if the Augustus family returns, they cannot compare with him.

Because he implemented an idealistic benevolent policy, which was to reduce the interference and exploitation of the bureaucracy and aristocracy on the production and life of the lower-class civilians as much as possible. Noah could confidently guarantee that no one would die of hunger in his territory - this was one of the evaluation indicators for local officials.

If civilians die of hunger, if there are no special reasons such as cursed diseases, then a large number of officials can prepare to change their careers. Of course, they can also prepare to go to jail or report to the god of death in the River Styx.

Precisely because it provides such a good living and reproduction environment for the lower classes, the population of this territory, which has been managed by the Augustus family for many years, has doubled again in the past ten years.

Large tracts of wasteland were reclaimed, and even the power of extraordinary professionals was used in farming, with the aim of increasing grain production.

As the population increases, the demand for food naturally increases as well. Moreover, many people under Noah's rule are no longer satisfied with just having enough to eat, and even pursue eating well.

Once material needs are met, people will naturally begin to pursue spiritual pleasure. Supported by these well-fed, short-lived species, many fields such as art, literature, thought, education and architecture are undergoing very drastic changes and are changing with each passing day.

Education in Noah's territory is no longer limited to screening out extraordinary people from the crowd, but has begun to spread to a larger number of ordinary people with a larger base, allowing more ordinary people to be literate, gain more knowledge about the world, and have thoughts about their own lives.

These changes are not only the result of Noah himself, but also the result of many dedicated idealists.

Many holy warriors are willing to stay in this land and impart their knowledge and skills, as well as their thoughts and pursuits free of charge.

Many druids of the natural cult are also willing to help farmers improve crop varieties for free so that crops can have higher yields. Similarly, they will also spread their own teachings.

This is the land ruled by Noah, and idealists gather here from all directions because there is soil here that can accommodate them.

This place can accommodate any ideas and extraordinary heritage that are beneficial to the production and life of intelligent races, but it also cannot tolerate any cult beliefs that threaten destruction, devastation, and the coming of doomsday.

Even the church that has the true God cannot fight against Noah in this land. Even if it is just a competition in the field of faith, Noah has almost absolute ruling power.

Many people already worship the Holy Dragon as a god. Although Noah has ordered his officials to repeatedly state in schools and libraries that the Holy Dragon is not a god, it is just the title of a powerful dragon leader, not a god.

But obviously, such a statement cannot prevent people from worshipping and admiring the Holy Dragon. Compared with the belief in gods that may not grant blessings even if one gives everything, the Holy Dragon's grace can be felt personally.

This is Noah's dominance over this land of more than three million square kilometers, and it is the result of his giving up his influence in the Kingdom of Atlas.

In this regard, even his eldest nephew has to envy him. At present, the total population of Noah's territory has exceeded 10 million and is heading towards 15 million.

In terms of population size alone, Noah can be compared with the United Kingdom, which is almost disappearing in the memory of ordinary people.

When Noah's will was conveyed, some departments hidden in the dark became active.

An intelligence department is an organization that any force must establish. Even small gangs fighting for territory in the streets will focus on collecting information, not to mention the force established by Shenglong.

The most effective way to collect intelligence, besides obtaining first-hand information directly from official sources, is through commercial activities.

Fortunately, the commercial trade of Elishim City has always been the best in the East, and it is the veritable economic center of the East Continent.

"Your Highness, I found it!"

On the afternoon of the day that Noah issued the order, Shifraya brought good news to her Golden Dragon Sect Master.

"So soon? Where?"

Noah was a little surprised, but also a little curious.

Did he underestimate the intelligence network rebuilt under the leadership of the goblins?
"In the mountain city of Rodia."

"Oh, the wanderer has returned home."

The mountain city of Rodia is one of the thirty-nine mountain cities built by Noah in the Aldis Mountains. Its maximum population capacity is 100,000. Of course, in times of war, it is not a problem to cram in 300,000 or 500,000 people.

This mountain city is also the city where Wayne grew up. The Dark Knight also rose in this city, walked out from here, and established the famous Knights of Inquisition.

This is a secret that not many people know, but Noah, who is in charge of everything, happens to know everything.

"Will you summon him?"

"No, I can't summon him. This little guy only responds to soft tactics and not hard tactics. If you treat him forcefully, he will only fight back with a stronger approach, regardless of how much damage he will suffer."

In Noah's eyes, Wayne is now a wounded beast. After experiencing a series of things, he fled back to his original and most familiar nest with great confusion, licking his wounds silently.

"What is he doing?"

“He’s getting reacquainted with his hometown.”

"Then let him get familiar with it. Who else is with him now?"

"And there's a hellish goblin."

The dragon fairy thought for a moment and replied.

"Hell fairy? The fairy that followed him back then, evolved and mutated?"

Noah made a judgment in an instant. The hell that split from the abyss had a very strong ability to infect and assimilate. Even the dragons could be infected and degenerate into dragon demons.

"Yes."

Xifula's expression was very calm.
"That little fairy has now evolved into a hell fairy. According to our observations, she can transform into a devil. In this form, her melee ability is very strong."

"Yeah, that's not bad."

Noah didn't have much emotion because of the news.

He can just become a devil, not a real devil. There is no need to make a big deal about it or call for his beating and killing. Besides, even if he is a real devil, Noah can accept him as long as he abides by the rules.

This is the mindset that a qualified ruler should have. At the same time, it is also a kind of advance preparation, because Noah has a very bold guess.
