章節 118: Noble BloodBlades
"Your Lordship!"
Both of them kneeled.
[Ding! You have upgraded your BloodBlades to Noble BloodBlades!]
Just the sight of these men in their golden armor caused a silent ripple of respect throughout the camp. They were like stars in the sky. Bright, resplendent, and several folds more imposing than the other soldiers.
No one could see their eyes, even though the T-shaped opening was supposed to reveal their eyes, nose, and mouths. Unlike their expectations, everything revealed by that opening was pitch darkness.
It was as if that opening was a black hole.
When both of them got up, Asher felt hunger for his own armor. It was high time a lord like him got his own armor because the battles would get increasingly chaotic.
To Asher's shock, his Noble BloodBlades took a step forward, and golden metallic wings sprouted out of their backs, lifting them off the ground. There was an illusory halo they could see around them, but it seemed like it vanished and appeared continually.
Asher took a step back, his heart pumping heavily as he couldn't understand what was going on. This was beyond his expectations.
[Noble BloodBlades: Ancient warriors forged in blood and war, born to protect, fated to die, created to subdue and decimate the enemies of their masters. These beings are angelic guardians that have existed since the beginning of existence and vanished before the racial war.]
[Congratulations, You have transformed two humans into extraordinary beings.]
Asher's pupils shook.
'Was this possible all along!'
[Yes. Some troop upgrades will lead to them becoming extraordinary beings, sometimes not humans.]
'So, Alex and Nero are…!'
[They still have human traits. In the next upgrade, they will fully transform into extraordinary beings that can not be matched by humans or any other ordinary race.]
"My Lord."
Nero's voice sounded ethereal, almost unreal, but it was distinct. Asher blinked several times before he calmed down.
Both of them came down; the mystical aura around them along with the wings vanished. But the shock was still fresh in the minds of the soldiers, and it was something they will likely not forget in months or even years to come.
Asher looked down and saw the map in his hand. It was then he remembered what brought him here.
"King swordsmen, prepare yourselves. We leave to hunt by twilight."
When the soldiers dispersed, Nero approached. "Your Lordship, are we going for a beast hunt?"
The young boy who would soon be eleven looked exactly like his father; they had the same height, the same stature, and the same eye, but he lacked a beard, and no matter the number of upgrades, it would only come when he was of age.
However, with this last upgrade, Nero's mind had matured to that of a man in his thirties. None of his peers could stand up to him, nor could any in the entire continent win him in a battle.
"Perhaps."
Nero puffed out. He had a helpless expression.
"My Lord, please be less vague."
Alex walked over. Asher couldn't read their expressions because of the unique effect of their helmets.
Asher opened the map, and after he explained, both men were stunned. To think Sapphira would reward their lord with something this big.
These horses were more than high horses; they were exotic-quality horses! Just one would cost over 1000 sacred gold coins!
This was because they were several fold better than the centraks, had an external layer of armor, could run faster, had more power, could deal damage with their long horns, and were few in number.
Unlike the centraks that were in the tens of thousands, the Silver Blood Horses were only in the hundreds. It was unlikely they would reach 1000 without proper nourishment and nurturing.
"Do we get one?" Nero asked with excitement. He couldn't wait to tame his own special mount. The thought of galloping on his mount made the blood in his veins hot.
"Don't you have wings?"
"Your Lordship!"
Nero exclaimed.
As they were talking, a soft fragrance tickled their nostrils, causing them to raise their heads, and they saw Sapphira in the air.
Her violet eyes were fixed on the Noble BloodBlades. As one of the extraordinary races, she could recognize these fellows weren't ordinary any more. And unlike her, both men were made for battles.
She averted her eyes to Asher, the only ordinary human in their midst.
"I came to remind you that I'll also need one Silver Blood Horse."
Asher chuckled.
"One is 1000 gold coins."
Sapphira's expression is frozen. Alex couldn't believe his ears. He knew this was an opportunity for his lord to build a relationship with Lady Sapphira, and here he was telling her to purchase one.
Was his lord kidding or not?
"You would sell it to me?"
Asher glanced at her for a brief moment, their eyes locked to the other before he averted his gaze and began to walk into the camp.
"It's reserved for my personal troop. You said it yourself. It should be an iconic sign of my personal troop. It won't be that if you ride it. But I will allow you to accompany us since your presence there will be worthwhile."
Sapphira shook her head.
She knew Asher read through the lines. The conversation made no sense; it was obvious she was here because she wanted to accompany him to hunt the beast.
As someone who was always outstanding, Sapphira was naturally curious about this similar outstanding lord who was crazy strong for his age.
His troops were simply too strong, and she knew it was related to his talent.
Such talent was out of this world!
Sapphira was dumbfounded by the extraordinary things around Asher. As if to prove her right, two beings that weren't completely humans stood before her.
Even at their rank which was lower than hers, she couldn't win a battle against both of them except she used her barrier skill and restrained them.
"When will you leave?"
Asher paused and turned his head.
"At the Twilight."
"Oh? So I can invite you to my temple then."
Hearing that, Alex looked at his Lord expectantly.
