Chapter 346 of "The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order" starts here: Complicated expressions appeared on the faces of the people in the Genetic Evolution Cube since... Discover what happens next!
Complicated expressions appeared on the faces of the people in the Genetic Evolution Cube since those names truly sucked. Krane, thrilled to the marrow by his new Lineage, couldn't help but show a broken smile upon realizing the name of his bloodline.
Sylan's eyes twitched before bursting with silver light. He used all his willpower not to berate Cain for uttering such lame names but managed to hold back and nodded.
"Okay, from now on, they are the Life Trend Lineage Formula and True Avernus Lineage Formula, as decreed by the Honorary Genetic Grandmaster Laurifer."
Cain's eyes narrowed upon hearing the title Sylan gave him, but he merely nodded and didn't say much. It didn't truly make him part of the Genetic Coding Association, so he wasn't particularly concerned.
"I am truly grateful for the honor. I don't wish to be rude, but I must depart now. I must prepare for my Arcane Ceremony of Nobility in less than ten days."
Cain wanted his reward, but to leave immediately after receiving it would be seen as impolite. However, his explanation made the Grandmasters nod.
The Arcane Ceremony of Nobility was an important rite, and one should use every minute to prepare. There was no need to waste time on pleasantries.
Sylan thought the same and nodded. A Tier One Bio Genetic Chamber appeared, which he sent towards Cain, who promptly stored it in his space ring.
"Usually, you wouldn't receive another reward for succeeding a second time in the Genetic Trial since just the formula would be sufficient pay. However, the True Avernus Lineage is of a high level, so I'll return the three million military credits you spent and offer this."
Sylan took a wave crystal from his space ring. It was unlike any Cain had seen before. The energy was so pure it instantly flooded the room.
"A high-quality wave crystal!"
Cain was surprised. Just one high-quality wave crystal was worth five million military credits, and its energy was so pure that even Titans used it to reestablish their Wave. Using it as a Wave Champion would not only accelerate his cultivation immensely but also enhance his foundation.
Since it was presented as a reward for the True Avernus Lineage, Cain had no reservations and took it.
"You have my gratitude."
Cain clasped his hands as he stored the high-quality wave crystal. He then showed his respect to Marlon and the other Grandmasters. Once they returned the courtesy, he calmly descended to the first level.
Krane silently followed him, as did Yordana and the old Apotheosis Realm Master protecting the young woman.
Cain didn't immediately depart as he purchased a significant amount of material. These would be needed in the future, and in the end, he spent nearly two million military credits again. Explore stories at My Virtual Library Empire
Everyone's eyes remained on Cain, and discussions began once he left the cube. It was evident that the events here wouldn't stay secret for long.
Sylan didn't say much. He simply nodded to Marlon and returned to his laboratory. What he would do there remained a mystery.
...
Cain, Yordana, Krane, and Samantha reappeared in the central plaza of the Silver City.
"It has been a great pleasure accompanying you on this journey, Colonel Laurifer. I hope we can stay in touch in the near future."
Yordana spoke solemnly, clasping her hands and bowing to Cain.
"How much?"
From the beginning, Cain had clarified his intent to purchase the knowledge, relying on Klaus mainly for his connections. That way, their relationship would not grow too deep or fall into one of dependence.
Cain had chosen that path since he knew nothing about the Fourth Imperial Prince, and there was no reason why he would trust he had never met before.
"Hahaha! The price is so negligible that I'd feel guilty asking such a modest amount from you."
Klaus chuckled as he hinted for Cain to take the starry gem
"I would not feel comfortable accepting this from the Imperial Prince without compensation. If it's without cost, I can't accept it."
Cain was displeased with Klaus's attempt to shift the terms and made his stance clear: if Klaus insisted on gifting the gem, he'd refuse it.
Klaus maintained his smile, saying, "If that's Colonel Laurifer's preference, then it's two million military credits."
Despite the loss of those two two million military credits draining most of his liquid assets, Cain did not hesitate and transferred the amount to Klaus.
"Done. I thank the Imperial Prince for his assistance."
After obtaining the starry gem, Cain and Krane offered their respects and departed.
Klaus did not attempt to stop the duo from leaving, and while his smile remained, there was a sharp light in his eyes as he focused on Cain.
As the duo walked to their residence, Cain's eyes grew cold and his demeanor sharp.
'Lord?'
Krane communicated silently with Cain via their Ego Waves. Although there hadn't been a confrontation, he had lived long enough to notice the tension between Cain and Klaus.
'Everything is fine for now. We'll stay here until completing the Arcane Route.'
Cain's eyes grew colder, reflecting his thoughts. Klaus' attitude regarding the Genetic Coder knowledge revealed much about the Imperial Prince's nature.
Initially, the Fourth Imperial Prince was content treating their relationship as a simple transaction, given he had the upper hand. However, this dynamic shifted with the emergence of Cain's dual talents, not just in martial prowess but also in Genetic Coding. While there were many powerhouses in the empire, Genetic Coders were rare and valuable.
Sensing a shift in their power dynamics, Klaus attempted to regain control by gifting the starry gem. This minor gesture spoke volumes about his intent.
As they prepared to separate, Cain instructed Krane.
'Use your underworld contacts and wealth to obtain a potent weapon and cultivation technique.'
Krane's eyes narrowed as he heard that command. He would need a new cultivation technique and weapon to draw the full power of his Lineage, and the ones he could obtain through his contacts in the underworld would be superb.
However, there were dangers in using those contacts since they could be used as an excuse to go after him and harm Cain.
Cain knew about the dangers, but he glanced at Krane, signaling this one to do it, before going to his room.
