Bloodline Lord of War - Chapter 136
Chapter 136 Titan Treasure?
Vaughn walked into the banquet hall, and everyone’s eyes immediately focused on him. Among these gazes, those relatively neutral nobles only showed surprise, while Xue Ying’s allies showed obvious hostility.
Surrounded by a group of nobles, Duke Augustus stood in the center of the hall calmly, with a faint smile on his face, waiting for Vaughn to come over.
As the head of the clan, in such an occasion, he needs to show enough courtesy and composure.
From Vaughn’s standpoint, he was equivalent to coming to the enemy’s base camp, but he didn’t have the slightest fear on his face, with a smile on his face, he walked gracefully and calmly in front of Augustus, bowed and saluted.
“Dear Lord Duke, I am here to congratulate you on behalf of my father. Please forgive my father who occasionally suffers from typhoid fever and is unable to move around, so he cannot come in person.”
After Vaughan finished speaking, Ma Ku behind him took two steps forward and sent the gift box in front of Augustus.
“This is a wish from my father, and I hope the Duke will accept it. May the Holy Light shine on you, and wish you a long and healthy life.”
“Thank your father for his kindness. Please tell him that I will send the best doctor to visit him in a few days.” Augustus said with a smile.
After he finished speaking, Olof stepped forward and took the gift box from Maku.
Then, Augustus and Vaughan began to chat happily. Both of them had smiles on their faces, and they seemed to be having a good time.
Robin stood on the periphery of the crowd, seeing the interaction between Augustus and Vaughn, he couldn’t help admiring the acting skills of the two. Although Xue Ying and Jin Meigui had long been secretly at war, as long as the two sides have not officially broken their faces, at least on the bright side, everyone still has to pretend to be hello, me, everyone.
Sure enough, life is like a play, and it all depends on acting skills.
Then, while Augustus was talking with Vaughn, Robin suddenly noticed that Marcus was walking towards him.
Helen stood beside Robin, she quietly took Robin’s hand, the female knight looked nervous, and whispered in Robin’s ear: “Robin, be careful, Marcus is coming.”
Mage Negan stood on the other side of Robin. He looked at Ma Ku with a rather displeased expression on his face. Obviously, he also knew Ma Ku.
Robin opened the eyes of the blood and looked at Maku. Since Helen said that he was very strong, Robin naturally wanted to investigate first.
The blood mist on Ma Ku’s body is very thick. The ordinary awakened person only has a circle of mist around his body, but Ma Ku’s blood mist almost covers the entire three meters around him. It was the first time for Robin to see such a thick mist of blood, and he couldn’t help being a little surprised.
His blood mist is yellow, with silver streaks mixed in the mist. Judging by the blood mist, he, like Glenn, should be of tiger blood. However, the blood heart on his chest was twice bigger than Glenn’s.
Based on the concentration and range of Maku’s bloodline mist, as well as the size of his bloodline heart, Robin judged that Maku is a bloodline level 4 Iron Tiger!
Robin was a little surprised: Awakened people with a fourth-level bloodline are not common. No wonder Helen is so nervous. In this Silver Frost City, Ma Ku’s strength is already at the top.
Robin reckoned that Ma Ku’s strength should be comparable to that of Master Negan.
Marcus strode up to the three of Robin, with a sneer on his rough face, he first said to Negan: “Long time no see, Negan, I thought you were dead.”
Nigan also showed a sneer, and immediately fought back: “Don’t worry, I won’t die even if you die. On the day you die, I will set off a grand firework magic over Silver Frost City.”
“Looking at your face, you probably haven’t deciphered that Titan document yet. I’m not afraid to tell you, I’m about to succeed in deciphering it soon.” Ma Ku said proudly.
Robin was listening, and was very surprised. It turned out that Marcus also knew that Negan had a Titan document, and listening to their conversation, Marcus was also deciphering the document.
“Hahaha, the treasure of the Titans is mine, Negan, so don’t waste your efforts.”
“It’s up to you, how could you decipher that document?” Master Negan showed disdain, but at the same time he was afraid that what Ma Ku said was true.
“What do you think I’ve been disappearing for a while? I don’t know as much as you do, but I have my own way.”
After a few words with Negan, Ma Ku shifted his eyes to Robin, and his eyes immediately became colder, like a beast about to eat people, staring at Robin.
“You must be Baron Robin, right? My nephew Glenn has been taken care of by you.”
There was a blade in Ma Ku’s words, but Robin was still calm and composed. He looked back at Ma Ku with a calm expression, and said, “I am Robin. Your nephew Glenn Kong has brute strength, but his martial arts are only so-so. You should Teach him well.”
“Nice to meet you, Baron Robin. I really want to learn from you. I hope that if there is a chance later, the two of us can learn from each other.”
After speaking, Marcus stretched out his big rough hand to Robin, making a gesture of wanting to shake hands. But in fact, he had a sneer on his face and looked at Robin playfully. He guessed that Robin would not dare to shake hands with him.
Robin looked at Marku’s outstretched hand, and then shook it calmly: “It’s an honor to meet you too, Mr. Marku.”
Ma Ku was a little surprised. He didn’t expect that this Robin would really have the guts. If that’s the case, then I’ll teach you a lesson!
Ma Ku started to use his strength. Of course, he didn’t use all his strength. After all, this is the territory of the Xueying family, and he didn’t dare to do it too much. He just wanted to pinch Robin and make Robin look a little ugly.
But after Ma Ku used some strength, he found that Robin’s expression was still calm and his breathing was steady. It seemed that he didn’t feel the strength in his hand at all. The handshake between the two seemed to be just an ordinary handshake.
And he also felt that Robin’s hand was as hard as an iron hand. At Robin’s age, it was the first time he saw someone who could shake his wrist with him.
Ma Ku was surprised, this kid really has some skills.
Actually, in terms of strength alone, Ma Ku far surpasses Robin. Although Robin’s Titan bloodline was higher than that of the Tigerman’s bloodline, Maku’s bloodline was level four, while Robin’s bloodline was only level two. The huge gap in level was difficult to completely smooth out with the level of bloodline.
However, because Maku didn’t use his full strength, Robin can still parry with the advantage of the divine power of the Titan blood.
Seeing that Robin seemed to be fine, Marcus was very annoyed in his heart, and just about to continue to increase the strength of his hand, at this moment, a beautiful white hand suddenly rested on his shoulder.
He turned his head and saw Master Vaughn standing behind him.
Vaughn shook his head at Marcus with a serious expression, as if warning Marcus: This is not our territory, don’t make trouble.
Marcus was a little upset, but he had no choice but to let go of Robin’s hand.
“Baron Robin, we will definitely meet again, and I look forward to that day.”
After leaving this sentence, Marcus walked away with Vaughn.
When leaving, Vaughan also took a deep look at Robin, his eyes were full of anger and resentment, as if saying to Robin: “I still remember the things about Wind Castle and Baron.”
Vaughn and Marcus didn’t stay long, they only stayed at the banquet for a short while, and then they bid farewell to Duke Augustus.
After watching them leave, Robin asked suspiciously, “What are these two people doing here?”
“Can’t you see that? They are here to disgust people.” Master Negan replied from the side.
Because of the sudden visit of the golden rose, the atmosphere of the whole banquet became weird, and the previous active atmosphere was swept away. Many nobles seemed to lose the interest of drinking and talking, and finally the banquet had to end prematurely.
Robin thought to himself: It really verified what Master Negan said. Vaughan and Maku Chunchun are here to disgust people, and their goal seems to have been achieved.
Actually, when the banquet was halfway through, Robin’s mind was no longer on the banquet at all, and all his energy was attracted by the Titan document. He was eager to know what was specifically recorded in this document. Is it true that the document recorded the treasure of Titans as Ma Ku said?
So after the banquet was over, Robin hand-copied a copy of the Titan literature, and he decided to read it by candlelight tonight and study it carefully.
Back in his guest room, the half-elf Luke was still awake. He was sitting in the living room, holding a book of poetry in his hand and was engrossed in reading it.
Seeing Robin push the door and come back, Luke immediately stood up to meet him: “Master Baron, did you enjoy the banquet tonight?”
Robin took off the dress on his body and threw it on the sofa. Too many things happened tonight, and he only felt a mess in his head for a moment.
First, he was inexplicably jealous and hated by the young master of the Bingqi family; then he prostituted a copy of the Titan Documents from Master Negan for nothing; finally, Vaughn and Maku from the Golden Rose family came uninvited;
Although the banquet was not long, it was quite exciting.
“It’s a long story, let’s talk about it another day. Where’s Simon?” Robin asked.
“He went back to our room to sleep.” Luke told the truth that he and Simon’s room was next to Robin, and Luke stayed here specially to wait for Robin to come back.
Robin unbuttoned the neckline of his shirt to free his throat again, and said to Luke, “Go back to bed early, too.”
“Yes, my lord.” Luke bowed to Robin, then exited the room.
After Luke left, Robin sat down at the desk, took out the copied Titan document, and began to study it attentively.
Once Robin enters the serious mode, he will forget to sleep and eat, and he will not be able to perceive the passage of time. The night outside the window was getting darker, but the magic lamp on the desk was always bright. I don’t know how long it took, and when Robin came back to his senses, the draft he used for translation was densely filled with words.
These translated imperial texts are twice as many as the Titan texts in the literature, and this is only a little bit of translation.
Titan language is very concise, one character can often be translated into seven or eight imperial characters, and a short sentence can be translated into a paragraph.
This is one of the reasons why Titans is very difficult.
Robin had never done this kind of work of deciphering the Titan documents before, not because he didn’t want to do it, but because he didn’t have the opportunity to do it. After all, the Titan documents are not so easy to get. Therefore, Robin’s deciphering work is completely instinctive and follow the feeling.
He first translated all the parts of the document that he could understand, and left the parts that he could not understand. After the first stage, Robin was given a first draft full of blanks.
Then, Robin was surprised to find that this document was indeed related to the Titan floating city, and it seemed to record the location of a certain floating city!
This information was like a thunderbolt, and it exploded in Robin’s head. If he didn’t make a mistake in translation, then according to the clues in this document, he would be able to find a floating city left by the Titans in ancient times!
Thinking of this, Robin couldn’t help but tremble all over with excitement.
You must know that in the history of mankind, countless people have tried to find the Floating Void City. Some are strong men who desire the power of Titans, and some are scholars who yearn for Titan knowledge. However, these people have continued for hundreds of years. Not a single tile was found.
People’s understanding of the floating city only comes from some ancient documents and some poems handed down from ancient times. If Robin can find a floating city, it will definitely be a discovery that shocks the world!
No wonder, Ma Ku will say that there are treasures of the Titans in this document.
Calm down, Robin, calm down.
Robin took a deep breath to calm down the turmoil in his heart.
Strictly speaking, he is still not completely sure that there are clues about the Floating Void City in the literature. Judging from the current translation, it is only possible that he has not fully translated the most important and crucial information.
Moreover, even if the location of a floating city is indeed recorded in the literature, thousands of years have passed by now, and the Titans have long since disappeared in the vast river of history. This floating city may have been destroyed long ago Already, there is not even a bit of scum left that has been swallowed by the years.
In the end, it may still be nothing.
So, Robin must lower his sense of expectation, otherwise he will find out that it was just a joke in the end, and the joke will become bigger.
Robin looked up at the clock on the wall, it was already midnight, normally he should have gone to bed long ago. However, with such a precious Titan document in his hand, how could Robin be able to sleep?
Translate another paragraph, and then the last paragraph, and then go to sleep.
Robin told himself this in his heart, and then devoted himself to the work of deciphering.
Then it was like “one more period, one more period”, going back and forth, and when Robin came back to his senses again, the sky outside was already bright.
“Bang bang bang…”
There was a knock on the door, Robin walked over to open the door, and found Helen standing outside the door.
