Chapter 814: The Poor Emperor
Chapter 814 – Poor Emperor
The mermaid race was in a miserable situation, and the Xander in front of him seemed to be suffering.
Alfonso informs Saul of the value of the existence of the Eternal Night Emperor.
“After extracting the bloodline of the mermaid race back then, in order to better control the mermaids, the predecessors of the Court of Judgement extracted the bloodline of the king’s race among the mermaids and incorporated it into the descendants of the Eternal Night Emperor.”
Alfonso looked towards Xander who was sleeping peacefully, “Controlling the mermaids by controlling the royal race. Of course, in return, the Judgment Court will also ensure that the status of the Neverwinter Nights Royal Family remains unchanged.”
“But didn’t you say that Xander is the only one left in the royal bloodline now?” Sol listened with amusement, the status of the Neverwinter Nights Royal Family was unchanged, but there were no more than a few people left.
“Yes.” Alfonso frowned, obviously troubled by this matter as well, “Perhaps it’s a curse, or perhaps it’s fate, the originally prosperous and numerous relatives of the Neverwinter Nights Royal Clan began to plummet in numbers after receiving the mermaid bloodline. Even though the Court Master personally took action, he still couldn’t stop the trend of the royal family’s dwindling personnel. By now, aside from Alisandra, there is no one else in the entire royal family who still possesses the mermaid royal bloodline.”
“So, you guys are looking for me mainly to …… “Sol paused, always feeling something odd, “let Xander have a child?”
Alfonso surprisingly even nodded, “There’s no problem explaining it that way. The two of us will be primarily responsible for the rest of the experiment. Our initial thought is that the reason Alexandra has never had a child born is because the mermaid royal bloodline in his body is too thin. Although he can still play a role in pacifying the mermaids at the moment, he is unable to pass on the bloodline to his offspring.”
“That’s why we intend to take out the remaining mermaid royal bloodline and fuse it into someone else’s body again to see if we can create a new royal family.”
Noticing the change in references in Alfonso’s words, “Fusing into others, are you guys planning to give up Xander?”
“Yes. There is no way for the current Neverwinter Nights Royal Family to perform a second bloodline fusion. Of course, if Xander can have offspring with sufficient bloodline concentration before a new royal family is born, then we will let him continue to be this emperor.”
Oh, poor Xander.
Being retrieved by Neverwinter Nights, he was only used as a fertility tool. Not only that, but an alternate fertility tool.
“You just said that you still need the Neverwinter Nights Royal Family to appease the mermaid race. How is this going to be pacified?” Sol asked.
This time Alfonso was silent for a moment, “His blood can pacify the mermaids.”
Sol couldn’t help but look at the still sleeping Xander. Seeing him in this pale and weak state, it was definitely impossible for him to participate in politics.
And in order to better pass on the family name, too much extravagant enjoyment would definitely not work either.
Really …… poor emperor.
In any case, Saul was impressed with Xander, and he got up to ask, “If the Court of Judgment creates a new royal family, what will be the end of Xander?”
Alfonso nuzzled, “Since Alessandra knows you, it’s fine to have him change his nobility and go into seclusion in the countryside.”
This meant that if Saul wasn’t going to save Xander’s life, the odds were that the Judgment Court wouldn’t keep him alive.
It was likely that he didn’t want two royal clans to exist in this world at the same time, affecting the ruling court’s power over the mermaid race.
Even if they agreed to let Xander go to the countryside to live in seclusion, they would definitely send someone to watch over him, so that he would have to spend the rest of his life in the same place.
Knowing that Saul had gotten his point, Alfonso stood up from the couch, “That’s about it for here, I’ll take you to the bloodline research lab. The mermaids are on the coast and need to take a teleportation array, we’ll go there tomorrow.”
Sol nodded readily, but walked over to the sleeping Xander before leaving, “Mind if I take some of his blood and go back to the research?”
“Of course, you can already start experimenting now.”
Alfonso raised his hand, signaling for Saul to make himself at home.
Saul took a bit of flesh and blood tissue from a vein and an artery respectively, and then followed Alfonso out of the Eternal Night Emperor’s palace.
Long after the two had left, Xander slowly opened his eyes. The complexion was clear, not at all like someone who had just woken up from a nap.
Suddenly, a blue butterfly appeared within the pupil of his right eye, lightly fluttering in and out. “Midori,” Xander whispered, “do you think we’ll still be able to ask him for help?”
The blue butterfly flew to the edge of his right eye and disappeared, quickly reappearing in his left eyeball.
“I see.”
Between noises, the two completed their exchange.
Xander closed his eyes again, not even changing his movements.
He knew that when a certain time came, someone would wake him up and go to his chambers to rest.
After all, the squire here was very, very concerned about his health.
At this time, Saul, who had left the royal palace, followed Alfonso as he instantly moved to another place.
This place was just a completely different style from the cold royal palace.
Everywhere you can see busy Court of Judgment wizards, some are experimenting with various instruments, some are observing while taking notes, and some are buried in inscribing different miniature sorcery arrays…….
After Saul followed Alfonso in, none of them took the initiative to greet them, they seemed to be too busy.
Alfonso also had no intention of introducing Saul, and led him straight to the innermost part of the room.
Saul walked all the way and looked all the way, with his current knowledge base, he could already easily tell what kind of experiments these wizards were doing.
And in his opinion, I’m afraid that the experiment of fusing the bloodline of the mermaid race was still in the beginning stages. A general design idea had yet to be integrated.
However, without understanding the full picture of the matter, Saul wouldn’t just open his mouth to make suggestions.
The two entered a separate experimental room.
There were specialized wizards guarding the place and no one who was conducting research experiments, so it was obvious that this was Alfonso’s specialized laboratory.
“Sit first.” Alfonso pointed casually, then walked to the wall at the end of the room.
The wall was inscribed with an alien sorcery spell that looked like a combination of a parallelogram and a moon shape.
It was the first time Saul had seen this combination of sorcery spells, and he immediately observed it with interest.
Alfonso sensed Saul’s gaze and did not avoid him, reaching out to draw two compound runes on the spell formation.
After drawing the diagrams, the entire sorcery spell formation lit up with light.
Alfonso extended his arm directly inside the wall. When he pulled his arm out again, there were already two more test tubes in his palm.
One of the test tubes was filled with a clear and transparent liquid, and a small drop of dark blue orb was suspended in the center of the liquid.
The other test tube held a small amount of dark red liquid, covering only the bottom of the test tube.
Alfonso pointed to the test tube containing the small blue orb and said, “This is the bloodline fusion agent, and these amounts can probably be used three times. The other is the mermaid royal bloodline given to me by the court master, which can also only be used three times. That’s why before we officially start the experiment, we must prepare the preliminaries well and cause as little waste as possible.”
Saul looked at the dark red liquid, his heart moved, and he blurted out, “Can I be given a copy of the mermaid king race’s bloodline to take back and study?”
