'It's the same as what I expected. The two bloodlines are so dense and aggressive. I can barely turn them into signets and they're extremely active…' Angele noticed that most strong bloodlines had similar properties as these two, they were dense and invasive.
Angele's single-eyed giant and scorpion woman bloodlines were not dense, so they could merge into each other.
'So, I'll have to focus on a single bloodline if I want to proceed to the next step…' Angele started thinking.
The two new bloodline signets he acquired were all active and it had become a problem.
The main problem was that if he activated the signet during a battle, the bloodline power would be completely consumed and it would be a waste of energy.
Angele was walking the path of the ancient wizard; with the help of the Erin's Funeral Oration, he had a general idea of what he should do. He had no teacher, so he had to proceed with caution. He would only execute his plan when he was fully prepared.
Erin's Funeral Oration was not designed for human beings, after all…
'If I'm going to focus on one bloodline, which one should I choose…' Angele was trying to make an important decision.
He had five choices: the Star Giant bloodline, the Son of the Sun bloodline, the Bone Head Dragon bloodline, the single-eyed giant bloodline, and the scorpion woman bloodline. The other bones he acquired from Bone were weaker than those bloodlines, so he did not consider them.
Based on the general features, the single-eyed giant and the scorpion woman were weaker than the Bone Head Dragon; however, the Bone Head Dragon was weaker than the Star Giant and the Son of the Sun.
Also, single-eyed giant bloodline had already merged into the scorpion woman's bloodline. If Angele gave up the merged bloodline, he would have to start from zero, and the power of his true form would be greatly reduced.
The power of Angele's true form was close to a rank 6 wizard; however, if he gave up the merged bloodline, the power level would drop to the same as a rank 3 wizard. Although he could progress much faster with a high-level bloodline, it still took time.
'I've never heard of the Star Giant and the Bone Head Dragon, but I know that the power of the giants comes with a price. It will take thousands of years for a giant to reach his potential. I won't be able to live that long even if I turn myself into soul form,' Angele analyzed.
'Bone Head Dragon is a dragon; however, dragons take inheritors seriously. The dragon sigil is the most important thing for a dragon and their bloodline is weak without an inheritor's soul. If I can't retrieve the knowledge from the sigil, I won't be able to utilize a dragon's power.
'The Son of the Sun…' Angele liked the Son of the Sun the most.
Based on the information he had, Angele knew that the Son of the Sun made several appearances during the ancient war.
During the wizard war, some ancient wizards communicated with other realms and helped a Son of the Sun teleport his shadow to the wizard world. The arrival of the shadow brought drought to the world and some of the creatures were burnt into ashes under the high temperature. The situation would be worse if the wizard who communicated with the Son of the Sun had stronger power.
Angele was struggling, he did not want to just give up the merged bloodline…
"Whatever… I can wait until I come back from the Soul River Realm… Cough…" Angele started coughing again, the frost damage from the eye-gouging dragon made him uncomfortable again.
"Wait… The aggressive bloodline of Son of the Sun may be able to help me with the frost damage…" Angele muttered as he cleaned the rune circle from the table.
Angele was a wizard, but he was still a human being. If he could not refine his soul, he would not be able to surpass the bloodline owners' power level.
Sons of the Sun were extinguished years ago and it was nearly impossible for Angele to meet one that was still alive.
Angele made sure that no one noticed that he was extracting the bloodline and returned to the window, staring at the rotating vortex. He decided to wait for the teleportation by meditating.
After about three hours, the white plate suddenly vibrated.
A deep voice echoed in the ship.
"Zombie Lord Marco of Group Three, please prepare to enter the portal…. Also, get ready, Group Four…"
Thunder was rumbling outside the window and there were countless black dots that looked like ants below the clouds. They were all heading to the vortex.
Angele looked at the black dots and noticed that they were enormous bats.
The bats flew to the vortex, they looked like flies charging to a light bulb. There were countless black bats in Angele's sight.
*WOO*
A bat passed by the window, it rotated in the air several times and joined the crowd.
*WOO*
A strange noise that sounded like it was from a horn echoed in the air.
*BAM BAM BAM*
Angele could hear loud but slow footsteps from below.
Giants that were more than ten meters tall were slowly walking to the vortex on the ground.
The giants had gray skin and muscular bodies. Their heads looked like giant eggshells with heads of infants inside. Those heads were glancing around curiously.
Each giant looked like an infant wearing a large astronaut suit.
The giants were advancing slowly and there were white wolves passing by.
The noise made by the army was extremely loud, all soldiers were heading to the vortex without any hesitation.
Angele stopped meditating and looked at the scene quietly.
Giants, wolves, black bats, and Eye Devil's eyeball dragon knights, they were all moving into the vortex slowly.
They looked like white and black rivers.
"Master Green, are you ready? We're about to enter the portal." A crisp female voice came from outside.
Angele turned around. "Come in."
*KA*
The door opened by itself and there was a girl with long black hair standing by the door.
The girl was wearing a white dress, but there was no expression on her face. The stinky smell from the girl's body permeated the air as the door opened.
Angele walked passed the girl like he did not notice the smell.
"Let's go. I assume Bone has already prepared everything."
"Yes, master," the girl responded in a cold tone.
"Thank you for taking care of me when we were waiting," Angele said as he walked.
"My pleasure, I hope you don't mind the smell…" The girl was emotionless but it sounded she was complaining for some reason.
Angele noticed the change, he suddenly stopped and glanced at the girl.
"You were a human being, right? It doesn't make sense. You have a nice body but it does stink." He raised his right hand and grabbed the girl's chin. "Don't worry, I can ask Bone to make you my maid if you don't mind. I don't care about the smell."
The girl's expression loosened, it seemed like she was surprised.
She had no idea how she should react to Angele's words.
Angele rubbed the girl's cheek, lowered his hand, and started moving again.
The girl finally realized what Angele just said, she was not angry at all. She was happy that someone liked her.
The girl knew that people around her hated her after she became a zombie devil. The stink and the dirt on her body would never go away. She grew up in the Bone Sea and no one had ever praised her once. The creatures could not handle the smell from her body since it was worse than the smell of the banshees.
The girl had never considered herself as a beauty and a zombie lord's appearance would change when the others looked at her in different ways. If a man thought she was ugly, she would become ugly in the man's eyes. She had already gotten used to it over the years.
It was the first time that someone ignored the smell from her body and treated her like a beautiful woman. The girl was surprised, excited, and confused at the same time.
She had never been treated like a woman and almost forgot that she was a woman. She stared at Angele with happiness in her eyes.
Banshees and female zombie devils would try their best to get the things they wanted.
Angele did not notice that his words had completely changed the zombie devil's thought. He was just trying to cheer her up since she was once a human being.
He walked down the hallway and reached the exit by the end within minutes.
Angele stood by the exit, the strong wind made his hair and long robe dance in the air.
"Let's move, Phoenix!" Bone's shaky voice came from the top.
Angele chuckled and raised his head.
He noticed that there was a ball of green flame flying to the vortex under the dark clouds and Bone was in the center of the flame.
Angele quickly took out the black metal cage and threw it forward.
*WOO*
The cage turned into a large metal cage that could fit one person, the cage was surrounded by green flames and there was an entrance on its surface.
Angele turned into a ball of red flame and entered the cage.
*BAM*
The green flames around the cage turned red and the cage left the exit right away. The cage looked like a red star. It drew a red string in the air and flew to the vortex.
Two other purple stars appeared in the sky, they joined the red and green star. They were all heading to the vortex and the light they released brightened up the land.
Angele stood in the cage, he leaned and grabbed the metal bars tightly. He slowly turned around and leaned against the metal bars, staring at the dark sky.
The cage was shaking constantly and Angele could feel the intense vibration. The cage was traveling at full speed and there were several bats rotating around it like bodyguards.
Angele could see that the edge of the cage was coated with yellow flames—the scene was quite strange.
Several minutes later, he felt like he dropped into a pool of warm water. It was actually a sea of pure dark energy.
