The 5 Keys!
'System, I want to find them!'
['Good host. All I can do is pinpoint the general scope of where they might be. It will be up to the hist to find them for himself!']
Pup!
Landon stared at the blue interface before him, looking at the general locations.
One was in the Continent of Omania, another in Morgany, Pyno (Paula), Dania and Zohl.
Of course, the system had been kind enough to say what empires they were on and what regions too.
For example, the one in Zohl was located around the eastern region of Glutia.
Meaning it was up to him to check the eastern regions.
It didn't say NorthEast or South East.
Nope.
The system said east, limiting his range further, which was good for him.
Landon took note of these locations, realizing that no one seemed to be captured yet.
But that didn't mean that the enemy wasn't coming for them.
The event might not even know what they looked like or who they were. But once they begin their search, it shouldn't be long before they gather more clues and find precisely who they were looking for.
What was intriguing was that looking at the system's information, some regions had 2 people with awakened bloodlines that seemed to stem from the same direct family and not cousins or indirect ones.
And in Pyno, there were also 2... Fairly located here in Baymard.
Landon tilted his head in surprise.
Eh? Could it be that Tilda had awakened her bloodline?
(°_°)
.
'System, does it make a difference if the enemy captured Tilda or Paula?'
['Host, if Miss Tilda has awakened, it would depend on the strength of her bloodline. That said, this system can tell you that Mrs. Paula's bloodline is way stronger than the 2nd person in Pyno.']
'Meaning the enemy would have a higher chance of unlocking the Core using Paula.'
Yes!
Landon's eyes twinkled endlessly.
Assuming Tilda was the awakened person, maybe capturing her would only yield a 1 or 3% core unlock.
However, Paula might be able to unlock up to 20% of the core's potential.
Yes! This was how he looked at it.
There were 5 primary bloodline Keys.
So the stronger the bloodline, the more potential it had to unlock up to 20%.
Then doesn't this mean that if he can get the keys, the Morgs won't be able to fully unlock it?
Landon's body trembled.
Yes! Yes!
For now, he still has to upgrade his space if he wants to keep the core inside.
At first, he was worried that the longer the core stayed with the enemy, them unlocking it to its full potential would be inevitable, only being a matter of time.
However, that doesn't seem to be the case.
If he found the keys, no matter how long the view stayed with them, wouldn't it be useless?
Heh.
He finally found a shortcut.
But of course, he would never be able to get all 5 keys.
And this was because one of the unique bloodlines only had a single descendant alive, living in Morgany!
The enemy already had one key lurking amongst them.
And soon, they should be able to unlock a certain percentage of power. Maybe 10 or maybe 20%!
.
All in all, some key bloodlines only had a single person with the activated bloodline.
Dammit!
Looking at another location, Landon just wanted to cry for himself.
Dania?... Dania of all places?
Wasn't that the 2nd Lampe/Adonis continent?
Yup!
Adonis had long turned the entire container unto their own.
So he would have to let his people infiltrate the regions and manage to survive and live in that ridiculously Cultic place while trying to find the key.
Do you know how occultic that place was?
Sure. . they say they are a good religion and a proper temple.
But their activities were all cultic in his eyes.
And for his men, it could take days, weeks and even months to find the Key.
So imaging it all was truly daunting.
The more Landon thought about it, the more he felt like making plans right away.
In Dania's case, it was best to go in by air... Meaning he would have to take advantage of the summer.
And if the worst comes to the worst, they would have to infiltrate by sea, but using the submerged ships.
After knowing all he did, Landon had to make plans before the T.O.E.P made their move!
.
With the doctor, nurses and everyone excused, Landon calmly sat beside Paula.
"Aunt, I know what's wrong with you."
Paula was taken aback.
"Really? Little Landon, what is it?"
She gripped his hand anxiously, not knowing whether she wished to get the answer to the question she had always longed for.
The air was frozen cold, as goosebumps covered her entire body.
Body felt uneasy, tightening her quivering lips at Landon.
She... She wasn't dying, was she?
"Relax, aunt. It's not what you think."
"It's not?"
Landon shook his head sideways. "No. You're more or less fine and healthy. But aunt, have you ever wondered about their ancestors?"
"_"
Paula almost smacked Landon in the head. What did her ancestors have to do with her?
Since she could recall, her grandmother said she was an orphan who grew up in Veinitta.
So beyond her Grandmother's generation, what could she possibly know about them?"
"What? Do you mean my ancestors originated from Tenola? Little Landon, are you joking with me? Look at me! I'm not as fair as they are."
Well, this was because her ancestors had come to Veinitta generations back and had married people here.
In a sense, she was 60~70% Veinitta and the rest, Tenola.
So how can she have the same skin completion as them?
Landon chuckled, explaining a few key points of what he knew.
"Aunt. From now on, you'll have to train your powers!"
(-_-)
.
Like so, Landon began to make preparations. And in a blink of an eye, 4 more weeks flew by.
The month of May was finally here, which made many look forward to the blissful summer even more.
But to others, this was a time of war instead!
