#203 - Section 203

Kru said with some hesitation, "Are these… your people?"

At this moment, he no longer dared to call Allen by his name.

Allen smiled; he didn't mind Kru's change in attitude.

"Yes, I told you this is my country. Come, I'll show you the world on the surface now."

Allen said with a smile, holding Annie.

Chapter 297: King of Aruk, Alchemy Technology - Implanting Beast Blood into the Human Body (2)

With the existence of the Behemoth, the Aruk Forest had been completely conquered by Allen. The few remaining magical beasts trembled in the distance because behind them were five Behemoths that made them collapse.

This made them somewhat doubt their beastly lives.

"Take these people down, provide them with lodging and food, as well as hot water, clothes, and oh yes, this little one too."

Allen liked Annie very much. He handed Annie to a Gold Knight: "I like this little one very much, take good care of her."

A Gold Knight immediately carefully took Annie: "Someone, bring me a blanket!"

The Gold Knight looked at Annie wearing rough, thin gray linen clothes and immediately ordered his subordinates to fetch his blanket.

Annie squirmed uneasily in the Gold Knight's arms, as she saw these people as strangers.

But she quickly calmed down because the blanket was too warm.

It was now late winter and early spring, when the ice and snow melted, and the climate was a bit cold.

Wrapped in the blanket, Annie didn't even care about the dirtiness of her body.

The warm feeling instantly captivated her.

Soon, these thousands of people were taken away by the Gold Knights.

Allen then walked towards the magical beasts not far away.

After gaining the title of King of Aruk, he also had absolute command over these magical beasts.

"From today onwards, you will also become my subjects, and the Aruk Forest will also become the territory of the Allen Duchy."

"And I am your only king."

Allen said unceremoniously. Having the experience of the Stranfoss Mountains, he was very comfortable being this king.

The magical beasts certainly understood Allen's words. They all lowered their heads, and those with tails didn't dare to move.

Each and every one of them cowered into meme-worthy expressions.

"Alright, from now on, return to your lives in the Aruk Forest. Also, from today onwards, you are not allowed to hunt in my pasture."

"If anyone dares to disobey, heh."

When Allen said this, the killing intent in his tone made all the magical beasts tremble.

"Woof, woof, woof."

The magical beasts whimpered softly, seemingly indicating that they would not be presumptuous.

Allen nodded with satisfaction: "Alright, go in."

Allen pointed to the Aruk Forest, and the group of magical beasts and beastmen immediately ran back.

"You guys go in too. The Aruk Forest is big enough, and the trees are tall enough. Help me guard the central shrine. Without my permission, no one can approach."

Allen said to the Behemoths.

"Roar."

The Behemoths nodded and began to walk towards the center.

As for the dilapidated appearance of the Aruk Forest now, Allen handed it over to the Treants.

After all, they were experts in planting trees and creating forests.

Of course, he also had a way to restore it to its original appearance.

But this would require a great price.

Walker had previously used the alchemy system of the underground city to restore the Aruk Forest once. That time, it cost a huge amount of energy, which also led to Walker being unable to stop Allen when facing him.

However, Allen didn't need to restore the Aruk Forest immediately. After all, besides the Allen Duchy, the Hilton Duchy in the north also had no contact with the Aruk Forest.

After dealing with everything, Allen led his men back to a nearby main city.

The underground residents who had just arrived on the surface didn't understand the continent's common language, and communication was a bit difficult, but it didn't prevent them from marveling at the beauty of this world.

Large expanses of farmland, clear rivers, bustling cities, as well as delicious food and beautiful clothes.

To them, this was simply paradise.

"Alright, my friends, as you know, your language has diverged from this world. Next, I will have them take you to your residences to rest for the night. There will be hot water; you need to wash your bodies thoroughly. After changing into new clothes, I will prepare delicious food for you."

Allen communicated with them using mental resonance.

Soon, they were taken down to take a comfortable bath, and after changing into a set of clothes, the food that Allen promised was already prepared.

Roasted lamb chops, beef, chicken soup, cakes, caviar, cheese, and other delicious and plentiful foods were placed in several castles throughout the main castle.

The underground residents couldn't resist this temptation, and they began to gobble it up.

Annie sat at a table near Allen, holding a chicken leg in one hand and a piece of cake in the other.

The little girl ate very quickly. From her expression, it could be seen that Annie was very happy.

But as she ate, Annie cried.

She wasn't the kind to wail, but silently ate and shed tears.

This made Allen feel a little distressed. The little girl was wearing a white dress, her body was small, and she looked very cute after being washed, with a head of golden hair, looking like a little princess...

The already cute little girl was even more distressing when she cried.

"Annie, what's wrong?"

Allen walked to Annie's side and said softly.

"Her parents died, starved to death, just a year ago."

Annie didn't speak, just cried. Kru answered Allen's question. "A year ago..."

Allen was slightly silent for a moment. "I understand."

Allen rubbed Annie's little head: "Don't cry, follow me from now on, I won't let you go hungry again." Allen's words made Annie look up at him slightly.

The little girl immediately stopped crying after seeing Allen's smile, and her whole body leaned closer to Allen.

Soon, this hearty dinner came to an end.

The residents began to return to their residences to rest.

Only Kru and Annie were left.

Annie was because Allen intended to raise her personally, while Kru was left behind by Allen to ask some questions.

Kru couldn't refuse Allen's request.

Because Allen had given them hope and a future.

"The so-called Beast Blood Power is to implant the blood of magical beasts into the human body, replace part of the human blood with the blood of magical beasts, and stimulate the human body with the power of magical beasts to achieve the ultimate effect of breaking through the physical fitness of ordinary people." Kru told Allen all the knowledge he knew, saying that this was an alchemy technique.

Yes, only alchemists would dare to do this. Putting it in 1.7 now, this is undoubtedly a crazy and bloody human experiment.

However, since Kru didn't know much, Allen only listened roughly. He felt that this Beast Blood Power was somewhat similar to the feeling of a Beast Soul Knight.

It was just that one was stimulation of the soul and the other was stimulation of the body.

Of course, the Beast Soul Knight was obviously more high-end. In comparison, the Beast Blood Power that Kru said was a bit worse.

But these were only temporary. With the technology of an ancient alchemy empire, Allen felt that it was impossible for it to be as simple as Kru said.

Allen decided to study the underground city carefully.

If he could master all the alchemy techniques inside.

This would undoubtedly be developing while standing on the shoulders of the ancient alchemy empire.

Chapter 298: Alchemy Madman Seeking Death, Completing the Side Quest (3)

"Kru, you may have to make a few more trips these days. As you know, there are still some people in the underground city who haven't come out. I have already prepared manpower to go to the underground city. They will help search for other people."

In the early morning, Allen said while feeding Annie milk.

"I understand."

Kru said very respectfully.

He had completely lowered his position.

Unlike that Walker guy, these people were at the bottom of the underground city, they were also workers in the underground city, so how could they be like Walker, thinking about making a comeback?

He had completely regarded himself as Allen's subordinate, or subject.

"Well, also, Kru, you have to learn the continent's common language. Your language should be the language of your Odin Gust Empire, and it is no longer suitable now."

Allen said to Kru. After all, language is the basis of communication, and language barriers will have a huge impact on their lives.

"Yes, Lord Allen, I understand."

Kru said respectfully. This swordsman would never forget the scene of Allen leading them out of the forest that day.

The densely packed 25 troops kneeling to Allen.

It was too shocking.

He only understood what a monarch was at that time.

Allen didn't plan to take this group of residents from the underground city away for the time being. He planned to settle these guys in Thomas's marquisate.

This way, it would be convenient to summon them.

In the following days, Allen completely settled this group of people in the marquisate. Except for Annie who was taken into the palace by Allen, everyone else lived in the marquisate.
