Chapter 1402: The Dormant King Lear
Aina showcased her superb leadership. Ren Yixuan represented extraordinary intelligence, while Wang Zheng had the strongest personal combat power. Three shining stars.
In the distant space, the fleet of the Saint Church had retreated to the Hidden Dragon Star. The Oracle Star wasn’t the only base they had set up. The fleet rested as they waited for the next step.
Constantine’s grand plan seemed completely crushed now, even a disaster. However, he didn’t seem to be too concerned about it. Rather, it was the Thirteenth Elder by his side that seemed to be a little down.
“Why are you worried?” Constantine asked with a small smile.
The Thirteenth Elder didn’t reply.
“I know you must be blaming me in your heart. There were some hiccups, but the situation isn’t as bad as you think. The prosperity of an empire is by no means superficial. It is based on the strength of the heirs. If not, all the riches would be gone. Aina did well, better than I expected. She had her own idea and judgment and was very decisive. That trait is rather similar to me. Haha, our Aslan bloodline is the best in the universe. Therefore, this little bit of difficulty is just a bit of training to polish her up.”
“Yes, Master,” the Thirteenth Elder said respectfully.
“Hehe, you are still blaming me. Everyone will die, and so will I. Bear with it,” Constantine said. “We can start the second part of the plan soon. It will be even more strenuous on Aina if we don’t give her the necessary support.”
Perhaps there was a way, but this suicide strategy was too much for them. Lin Feng’s death was a huge blow to the future of the Aslan Empire.
“Master, you mean…”
“Let Lear do it, give him the stage he desires. That person can unleash his power,” Constantine said.
“Master, his ambition is too huge and uncontrollable. Moreover, he is one of the five in the prophecy. Perhaps he is not someone we can use,” the Thirteenth Elder said. His suggestion was to kill this variable that was Lear. Perhaps they should also kill everyone in the prophecy so that there wouldn’t be so much trouble.
They had fallen to this state because they didn’t heed the prophecy. Ren Yixuan, Wang Zheng, Xie Yuxin, Aina, and Lear were the five who would disrupt the balance of the Milky Way Alliance. Ren Yixuan, Wang Zheng, and Aina had the power now. That proved the scariness of the Prophecy. What about Lear and Xie Yuxin then?
There was no sign from Xie Yuxin as of now, but Lear’s ambition could be seen. That rascal was now using the Oracle Star as his own nest, the nest of a monster. Lear wasn’t only strong, he was also good at enchanting people and using them. The Oracle Star was now completely under his control and had hatched a huge amount of monsters. To Aslan, who adhered to the pedigree theory, they couldn’t use these monsters at all.
However, the situation called for it.
“I know you’re worried about the dove occupying the nest. This person cannot be kept alive, but this is not the time. He might be growing very fast, but he cannot escape my palms. The person whom I want to kill will definitely die,” Constantine said.
The Thirteenth Elder kept mum. No one knew about Constantine’s power. He had the ability to pass down the Saint Church. That was the mysterious power of the last era. If Constantine made up his mind to kill someone, that person would not be able to run from that fate.
Aslan needed the overall situation now. If individual strength wasn’t backed up by wisdom and overall outlook, it would only become a disaster.
There was no more chaos and massacre on the Oracle Star, only order. Lear was now the unparalleled king. He enjoyed this feeling very much. He lived for it, that was his goal. However, the Oracle Star was too small. His world was limitless. Lear was now more forbearing than before now that he was given a chance to be reborn. He had to appear at the best possible moment. Before that, he would focus on improving himself. He was now very concerned with the international situation and the overall situation of the Milky Way Alliance.
The Locks family had cultivated him to be this way since he was a child, to stand on a higher horizon to look at the problem. As for Wang Zheng, Lear didn’t know what to say. He was definitely someone with power, but he was too foolish to protect Tita to his death. Why had he limited himself to the small Tita?
How would such a small territory rule the Milky Way Alliance?
A suitable base would be the biggest one. Aslan’s defense was done beautifully this time, though it didn’t solve the root problem, unfortunately. Lin Feng’s death was advantageous to him. There were many outstanding young fighters in Aslan, but none of them had the clout to be the pillar of the society. The people of Aslan had something to think about now that Lin Feng was dead. He was now critical not only because of his power, but because he was the only one who could go up against Ren Yixuan.
Professor Sharjah was elated. He felt as though he was in heaven these days. Luo Fei was a special existence. He could see that Lear had absolute trust in Luo Fei. Luo Fei was now recuperating, while Mo Ling, Ballara, Er Donglei, and Feng Yingying were in leading positions. Their strengths were now at the mid-level of Earth-rank. Mo Ling had a very strong foundation and her strength was even better. They were completely changed. Many others were semi-finished, which was slightly more complicated. Lear had given him a lot of ideas, and some of them were suitable to shorten the life of the transformed. These semi-finished products had gained new power, but their lifespans had been greatly reduced and they would require special means to live. For example, they might need continuous injections of the gene alteration fluid. Nonetheless, the power of the army was expanding. All of them had gained the ability to communicate with bugs without exception.
These semi-finished products provided a lot of ideas for Sharjah to serve Lear better. In Sharjah’s heart, Lear was just like his son. His goal was to let Lear rule the world, that was why he had done his best to adjust the configuration for Lear.
These experimental subjects were very outstanding before the transformation. Their combat power was even more scary now. Ren Yixuan’s game was in the absolute cooperation of spiritual power. That kind of scale was something Lear couldn’t imitate. However, Lear had a natural control over these cyborgs. That meant that it could function like Ren Yixuan’s game with slight modifications.
That was Lear’s trump card. A lone person’s power wasn’t all that important in the planetary wars. A person who could control such power, however, was totally different.
Lear didn’t need to rush out, because Aslan wasn’t desperate yet. Aina and Constantine should have realized this problem now after this battle. That was why Lear had asked Sharjah to report this ability to Constantine.
All he needed to do now was wait.
