"Crackle!"

Another crisp-sounding system notification tone was heard.

Maxwell was about to die from happiness upon seeing the progression bar for the Titan Technique.

"Congratulations to player Maxwell Gillette for gaining the blood essence of the Blue-eyed Toad. Will you be fusing with it?"

"Crackle!"

"Congratulations to player Maxwell Gillette for collecting 9,999 types of bloodline. You are now only 1 blood essence away from the Titan Technique!"

"I'm only missing one more!"

Maxwell's eyes seemed to suddenly glow brightly as he became ecstatic.

He had actually never thought of fusing with the Titan Technique.

What he really wanted was a bloodline that was considered undefeatable!

The Dragon bloodline, the Phoenix bloodline... The bloodline of the four divine beasts; those were the bloodlines that he wanted. Even though the bloodline from gathering the blood essence of the Titan Technique should be strong, could it be stronger than a Dragon's?

Peter Wesley had the bloodline of a true dragon.

For Maxwell to get the Titan Technique, wouldn't that be a bit inferior to his?

In order to crush Peter Wesley, Maxwell wanted to completely steamroll over him. Not only was it strength, martial techniques and equipment, but Maxwell wanted to crush him with his bloodline as well. Maxwell wanted to crush him to the point where he didn't even have time to gasp for air. This was what he truly wanted to accomplish.

There wasn't too much difference between the Dragon's bloodline and a true dragon's bloodline; most likely just a level difference.

But Maxwell wasn't going to give up.

He wanted the Dragon, Phoenix... and all the other bloodlines to be merged together. This way, it could surpass the true dragon bloodline by a mile so that Maxwell could completely and utterly crush Peter Wesley!

Even though he didn't need all the blood essence, there was someone else who did need it!

Constantine!

Constantine made breakthroughs by devouring blood essence, which showed his ability was very special for a human. When he was fighting Lucas in Eden City, blood colored scales appeared on his arm. Maxwell could tell that Constantine's transformation was not simple, so what would happen if he absorbed ten thousand different blood essences?

And these blood essences he would be absorbing were all from high-ranked spawned beasts. These high-quality essences contained a very powerful energy within them, so most likely when the Constantine devours them...

Maxwell was really looking forward to that day!

"Who's thinking about me?"

"Could it be that the boss is thinking of me?"

At the entrance to the Capital City.

There was a burly-looking guy with huge muscles filled with explosive power.

His height reached 2.5 meters, and his body weight was nearly 300 pounds. He was carrying an Egyptian blade made from the bones of a spawned beast that gave off a domineering aura. The whole image of him was very eye-catching, which caused the people nearby to avoid him like they were afraid of messing with this angry-looking bouncer.

This was Constantine.

He had arrived at the Capital City earlier than planned!

At this time, he was holding onto a little girl in white clothing with her face covered, while standing at the main gate.

Looking up at the wall that seemed to reach the clouds, he mumbled: "It's so big and tall. So this is the legendary Capital City, huh?"

"Boss, I've arrived here first." Constantine grinned foolishly while his heart was filled with longing. He became emotional when he realised that there would still be close to nine months before he would meet up with the boss again. According to Maxwell's instructions, he had to level up into the Gold rank within ten months' time.

But he only required less than two months to level up!

This guy's speed in levelling up was also perverted!

"Biggie, quickly look at those candied haws! Candied haws, candied haws, I want to eat candied haws..."

This little girl was naturally Brenda.

Brenda let go of Constantine's hand and ran off.

Constantine ran off to catch up to her while making a promise in his heart.

"Boss! Before you arrive in the Capital City, I will definitely carve out a territory for you!"

This was the reason Constantine came to the Capital City earlier than the appointed date.

He knew the reason why Maxwell was coming to the Capital City and counting on just them alone to rescue Brenda's mother wasn't realistic. Within the Great Capital city, they needed their own sphere of influence!

But wanting to establish a new force in the city was extremely hard, to the point that it was nearly impossible!

Eden.

With the flames burning and the meat grilling, Maxwell currently had a leisurely expression on his face. He was only a single drop of blood away from the Ten Thousand Blood Lineage and getting a Titan Technique, and it was going to be Constantine's big present. If he found out about it, most likely he would wake up from smiling in his sleep.

"So delicious!"

"It's so delicious, it's just too yummy!" Fernando had an extremely satisfied look as he finished a whole thigh by himself. His stomach only showed a slight bulge, making Maxwell question where all the food went.

Maxwell faintly smiled and said, "Eat some more if it's good."

Fernando burped before saying, "Let me rest a few minutes, then I'll definitely be able to devour the other thigh. Boss, are your cooking techniques some type of ancestral teachings? The taste is simply too delicious."

It could be said that Fernando has eaten many delicacies from the land and the sea in his life, but he had never eaten such delicious barbecued meat before.

"Of course, it's been passed down to me from my ancestors."

"This is a secret recipe that has been passed down to me for over tens of thousands of years. There's also a spell which is considered a secret technique. It must never be leaked that I possess this, do you understand?" Said Maxwell while laughing his ass off secretly.

Fernando became serious and replied, "I understand, I definitely won't divulge this."

Around this time, a swishing sound came from the surrounding bushes.

Maxwell lightly frowned...

And he became more cautious.

Also at the same time, a gnome that was a few centimetres taller than Fernando raised his head out of the bushes and shouted: "Your Royal Highness, the Prince!"

"Huh?"

They could see an adult-looking gnome quickly run towards them before kneeling down in front of Fernando with tears in his eyes. "Your Royal Highness, the Prince, you're finally back! Your parents have been looking for you everywhere!"

A joyous expression was seen on Fernando. He immediately stood up and asked, "Uncle Ben, are your words for real? Uncle Asher didn't do anything to my parents, right?"

This adult gnome was called Ben.

His expression was slightly unnatural, especially when a trace of fakeness could be detected in his eyes.

Of course, Fernando didn't notice this because he was actually just a seven-year-old child. Only someone like Maxwell, who had lived two lives, would notice this subtle expression.

Ben immediately replied: "Nope, General Asher was fully persuaded by your parents, so he won't be causing any trouble in the future. That's why I've been sent out here to look for you. You should quickly come back with me because your parents have missed you like crazy."

"Really?"

"I knew that Uncle Asher would never really bully my father."

Fernando smiled happily.

"Good!"

"I will immediately go back with you." Fernando was very happy. At the same time, he pulled Maxwell's hand and said, "Uncle Ben, this is my human friend. He's the one who has been taking care of me all these days, so I want to bring him back with us to reward him with something."

"A human?"

Ben's expression visibly changed as his eyes turned cold. He briefly glanced at Maxwell, and a trace of enmity could be seen in his eyes.

Maxwell smiled politely and said, "My name is Maxwell."

Ben didn't even look at Maxwell anymore as his voice changed and said: "Your Royal Highness, the Prince, you should know that our rules forbid humans from entering our territory. Bringing in a human means you are breaking the laws of our tribe."

Fernando's eyes sank.

He then looked up at Maxwell in a depressed mood and mumbled, "Boss, our race forbids humans from entering our territory. Even if I'm their prince, I cannot bring you inside. So what should we do?"

Maxwell smiled in a tolerating manner and said, "It's fine, I could see you off until the tribe's entrance, and then I just won't go in."

Ben coldly harrumphed and said in a reprimanding tone: "Sending him off to our tribe's entrance is not possible either. It's best that a lowly human like you go as far away from me as possible, or else don't blame me for being impolite to you."

"You little pipsqueak, acting all bold when I'm trying to respect you!"

Immediately after, flames of rage filled Maxwell's inner being!
