I Have A Game Clone

63 Lena’s Determination

The number of servants had increased by 5000. For the Undying Trump Troop, Ning Shi wanted elite soldiers only. He planned to slowly select the candidates.

[Bloodline battle armor: a battle armor that is bound to the host’s bloodline. It can evolve and grow in bloody battles. The materials are as follows: one advanced magic core, 1 catty of cloud gold, 300g of mithril, 100 catties of meteoric iron…]

Looking at the long list of materials, Ning Shi knew that the blueprint of the bloodline armor could only be put aside for the time being.

He had no advanced magic core, and had never even seen cloud gold before.

Ning Shi had always found it strange that the advanced magical beasts in this world were nowhere to be found. He had not seen a single one at all.

All the advanced magic cores were controlled by the core members of the three great empires. Snow Fog was only a child of a normal star elf elder, so she was not aware of the secret of the advanced magic nuclei.

After all, Duohuang was a place of exile for the three great empires. For example, Hilker, the president of the Brad Bloodline Chamber of Commerce, had been exiled to Duohuang as it was considered a remote area far away from the political center of the Empire.

There were too few people in Duohuang who knew many of the core secrets.

Ning Shi had already asked Amy to pay attention to related news, but there was no result yet.

After the war ended, Ning Shi logged out of first perspective and let the system start to hack.

At the same time, Rose City, Count Tagore’s mansion.

The Rose Knights’ leader, Count Tagore, and his eldest son Figo invited Lena to their house to discuss some matters.

Lena was wearing a fiery red training suit today. The loose clothing couldn’t hide her explosive figure. Her hair was tied up high, together with her slender neck, and her delicate facial features, everything matched beautifully.

Lena was almost 1.8 meters tall, and she exuded a confident and wild temperament from the inside out. She was like a red flame that was burning intensely, giving people a great sense of oppression.

Most men would unconsciously feel inferior when they meet her.

“Count Tagore, is there something you need from me? The competition is the day after tomorrow. I still have to cultivate.”

Even after coming to the Rose City, Lena still hadn’t changed her personality and style. She was straightforward and didn’t pretend to be polite.

Tagore touched the commander’s seal on his waist and pretending to be profound, said, “Lena, you’ve been in Rose City for two months. In these two months, under our nurturing, you’ve advanced from a level 1 bloodline to a level 2 bloodline.”

“If everything had went according to our previous plan, the probability of you winning in the arena battle is very high.”

“It’s a pity that the royal family still intervened, and the time for the battle has been brought forward. Because of that, your chances of winning the dukedom are already very slim.”

Tagore spoke unhurriedly, giving off a domineering feeling that he had the whole situation under control. He described the current situation in the hope of putting some pressure on Lena.

Unfortunately, Lena’s expression was still proud and confident, and she wasn’t moved.

Tagore was not in a hurry and continued to analyze, “The arena battle will be using a competition system of two wins out of three, and there is a 30 years old limit on the age of the participating external aid.”

“You haven’t been cultivating for long, and your personal strength can’t catch up with Allie and Gray. We won’t be able to get this point from you.”

“If you still want to be the Duke of Rose, you must get both points from the battle of external aid!”

Tagore paused and slowly took a sip of rose tea before continuing.

“I’ve already found out about your brother Gray’s external aid. One of them is the second son of the Kambia family, Val. Val is a cultivation genius. He’s 26 years old this year and has already advanced to the Level 6 Bloodline – blood-devouring poisonous vine. His professional level has reached level 27. He’s perverted and bloodthirsty, and his combat strength is terrifying.”

“The other one is the third Prince, His Highness Alesia. It was rumored that Alesia did not want to participate at first, but was forced by His Majesty Joerger. However, no matter what, it has been decided that he would be Gray’s external aid.”

“Alesia also has a Level 6 Bloodline – golden nine-eyed lion. Half a year ago, he killed a powerhouse with a Level 7 bloodline in three moves. His combat power could be as strong as mine.”

Tagore pretended to sigh. “After the royal family announced their support for Gray, he now controls nearly half of Rose City’s power. Our chances of winning are extremely slim!”

Then, he changed the topic. “There is always a way out. We still have a slight chance to win, but we need your cooperation.”

After Tagore finished speaking, he stared at Lena. However, the seemingly polite but disdainful smile on Lena’s face made Tagore’s speech sound like a clown’s performance.

He was a little angry, but he suppressed it and went straight to the point.

“My clan has an advanced magic core. With a secret technique, it can allow you to possess the power of a Level 6 Bloodline for a short period of time. With this, you can defeat Gray and Allie!”

“My eldest son, Figo, is 29 years old today, and he can participate as external aid. His profession level has reached level 28, and with the powerful one-on-one ability of the tiger bloodline, he can definitely defeat Val. This way, you can win two out of three battles, and you can still obtain the title.”

“It’s just that an advanced magic core is a rare treasure. Although I’m the clan leader, I can’t ignore the interests of my clansmen and give you the clan’s treasure that has been passed down for many years.”

“Why don’t you marry my eldest son, Figo, and we’ll be a family. That way, no one can object if I give you the advanced magic core.”

As his father finally revealed the purpose of this conversation, Figo stared at Lena’s exquisite face with infatuation. He knelt on one knee and said affectionately, “Lena, I’ve already broken up my previous marriage and chased my ex-wife out. All of this is for you! Believe me, you’re the one I love the most. Marry me, and I’ll make you the happiest woman in Rose City.”

This was the custom in the game world. If a noble kicked away his old lover for his new lover, not only would he not be called a scumbag, but his actions would also be praised as true love.

The nobles in the game world could marry more than one woman to continue the so-called noble bloodline. Their logic was that, under the premise of being able to marry more than one woman, they still chased away their ex-wife, which showed how much they loved their new lover.

Figo’s affectionate act was put in the wrong place. After Lena understood Count Tagore’s intentions, she turned around and left.

She only left behind one sentence.

“My heart already belongs to someone else. You guys can keep the advanced magic core for your own use.”

Figo was dumbfounded. He did not understand Lena’s choice, so he stopped her and shouted.

“Lena, you are throwing away the title of Duke of Rose. It symbolizes the honor of the snake bloodline, and it rules the vast and prosperous rose Rose City territory.”

“As long as you agree to my proposal, the position will be at your fingertips. Supreme power, endless wealth, all of it will be yours!”

Lena’s expression turned cold. She raised the golden snake sword in her hand and retorted, “It’s not the bloodline that’s honorable, but the strong-willed heart. It’s also not the title that rules the Rose territory, but the sword in one’s hand!”

“A mere Duke’s position won’t be able to shake my determination. Give me five years, and I can take down ten Duke territories with the sword in my hand!”

After she finished speaking, she left without even looking at Tagore and Figo’s ashen faces.

After returning to her residence, Lena wasn’t affected by Count Tagore’s words. She walked into the training courtyard and prepared to continue her training.

An old man with white hair and a white beard walked in.

His appearance was old, but his voice was full of vigor. “Lena, why was Count Tagore looking for you? ”

Seeing the old man, Lena smiled happily and said, “Teacher…”

The old man in front of him was called Gu Bin, and he was a distant bloodline of the Alice family.

According to seniority, Duke Dubo had to call him granduncle.

Gu Bin had a Level 9 undying cloud snake Bloodline, and was extremely powerful.

After the death of Duke Dubo’s family, in order to continue the Alice family, he observed the character and talent of the three illegitimate children and finally chose Lena.

He became Lena’s teacher.

Gu Bin stroked his beard and sighed after listening to Lena’s description.

I know what Count Tagore is thinking. I thought they would care about their reputation. I didn’t expect them to be so embarrassing. Maybe the pressure from the royal family and Gray is too great.”

Lena asked curiously, “The three forces are supporting us, the three illegitimate children respectively. They want us to be their puppets and control the power of the Duke. Isn’t this normal? ”

Gubin shook his head. “Tagore wants his son to marry you. His main purpose is for you to give birth to a grandson for him. His grandson will be the Duke.”

“After that, he’ll probably find an opportunity to let his grandson restore the Tagore family name and indirectly achieve the revival of the Tagore family. What an ungrateful wretch.”

“This matter is related to a grudge from a hundred years ago.”

“A hundred years ago, Tagore’s grandfather, Cliff, was the second Prince of the Ole Empire. He failed in the battle for the throne and fled to Rose territory.”

“At that time, the Duke of Rose, Lord Jason, was Cliff’s good friend. Out of friendship, he took the risk and took in the second Prince’s family.”

“In order to repay the emperor’s kindness, as well as to remove the new Ole emperor’s suspicion, Cliff announced that he would become Lord Jason’s henchman, and his family would serve the Duke of Rose for generations. Lord Jason was very happy and immediately said that the head of the Rose Knights would be the Tagore family’s patriarch for generations.”

“Duke of Rose was so kind to them, but not only is the Tagore family not grateful, they’ve also been plotting against the Duke’s family business. They’re really bastards!”

Lena finally understood. As a noble royal family, the Tagore family was definitely not willing to be under someone else. They did not even want to enact a puppet.

They wanted to usurp the throne and become the new Duke of Rose.

Gu Bin had obviously misunderstood. He followed his own line of thought and analyzed, “No wonder the royal family will support Gray. The royal family will definitely not let the Tagore family grow in Brad Empire.”

“Once the Tagore family takes control of the Rose territory, the Brad Empire will suffer a great loss if they decide to return.”

Lena nodded, and after understanding the reason behind the powers, she smiled.

Her smile was so bright under the sunlight.

“Teacher, to me, the arena battle is just training. With my current strength, I can’t contest the title for the time being, so I won’t think too much about it.”

“I just want to become stronger now!”

A meaningful smile appeared on Gu Bin’s face as he said, “That might not be the case.”

“Lena, when I went out this time, I heard a piece of news. The brother Ning Shi that you talk about every day has defeated the 300000 men allied army of the Ole Empire and the Elven Empire, and has become a domineering figure in the region.”

“According to my observation, there are many intelligence scouts from Duohuang in Rose City. It won’t be long before your brother Ning Shi comes to find you!”

For the first time in two months, Lena received news about Ning Shi. She immediately lost the mood to cultivate and pulled her teacher’s hand, asking him about it.
