Chapter 1913 Several Doubts
There wasn"t a reason for Placake to refuse that. If the demon beasts were the only ones who obtained the twins" knowledge, perhaps it would be better to keep everything a secret. However, the humans had Havek, who knew how to make them, so it wasn"t very smart.
Since the twins had Placake"s claws near their dantians, Placake decided to let them out after they arrived at their destination.
Rean and Roan looked around and saw that Placake wasn"t the only dragon anymore. Instead, they saw many of them. It"s just that although they were all dragons, they were very different from Placake. It wasn"t just Placake"s azure color, though. "Are there no other azure dragons?"
Placake shook his head, saying, "The Azure Dragon only appears when they get a Regal Bloodline. At the moment, I"m the only one."
Linfia was also there, and she wasn"t in the mood to talk about that. "Forget that. Placake, are you sure you can keep these two in check? What if they can run away from you? Your claws aren"t omnipotent."
Rean shrugged his shoulders in response. "We won"t leave without our girls, don"t worry."
"So you"ll leave if we find them, is that it?" Gardo asked with a dark expression.
Rean couldn"t help but sigh after hearing that. "If this is how we"re going act towards each other from the start, then what"s the point of you taking us here? Well, Roan doesn"t know much about formations, so it"s basically me."
Roan glanced at Rean and nodded. "He is right. I"m an alchemist, but I don"t think you guys lack anything in that area. I"m out." Before anyone could say anything, Roan entered the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. Yep, he simply left Rean alone to deal with the rest.
Rean"s mouth could not help but twitch after that. "Weren"t you who thought about surrendering to the demon beasts?! f.u.c.k you! You could at least stay here and help with the talking."
Roan didn"t seem to care. "You"re right. I have little to no knowledge about formations. That guy has his claw near my dantian, so my presence is useless. Just say whatever you like." After that, Roan went back to cultivating and simply ignored Rean.
"Aren"t you lacking some brotherly love there?" Mladrem wanted to laugh on the side.
[Hey, look! Even demon beasts like this guy think the same! You see? I told you that you needed more brotherly love!] Sister Orb didn"t let the opportunity pa.s.s up. Too bad only Rean could hear her.
"Sure, like the time you want Roan and I to hug each other while we were naked. Go to h.e.l.l!" Rean didn"t want to hear anything from her anymore.
Placake ignored the bulls.h.i.t and looked at Linfia. "Dimensional Realm or not, they can"t escape my detection as long as they have claws inside their bodies. They won"t be able to remove it with their cultivations either." Too bad he could only feel Roan"s presence because Sister Orb allowed it. The Soul Gem Dimensional Realm wasn"t any average Pocket Dimensional Realm. Naturally, neither the twins would tell Placake that.
Linfia narrowed her eyes and then threw a jade slip to Rean. "That"s your job after you finish work on that communication formation of yours."
Rean used his Divine Sense to check and saw that there was a formation blueprint inside. He didn"t look at it for long, though. The formation was very high level, so he needed some time to a.n.a.lyze it. Nevertheless, he could at least understand what type it was. "Oh, it has been some time since I saw a bloodline formation at this level. Well, it has been some time since I had seen any bloodline formation anyway."
Last time Rean saw something like that was back on the Zasfins" planet. The devil had taken control over the formation, but the twins and their group took it back, ultimately opening the Realm of G.o.ds" portal with it.
Gardo saw that and immediately asked Linfia. "It"s good that we have him. However, there"s one thing I don"t understand. Leaving aside whether their Circuitry Formation can improve our bloodline formations. What if he tampers with them and makes those formations malfunction? We use many of these formations to keep our important locations and races protected."
In response, Placake shook his head. "If we fear that, then we might as well kill him already. We will have our demon beasts and contracted Formation Masters learn Circuitry Formations from this guy. That"s what we brought him for. We can take our time to check the improvements he and the others make on the formations after that. It"s a lot more worth it than if we just don"t use his knowledge while Havek is with the humanoids."
Neither of the other three demon beasts disagreed with Placake.
Rean then took the opportunity to ask. "What about our friends?"
Placake obviously didn"t forget that. "Just know that I"ll have my claws put in their dantians so that you won"t try anything stupid. Are you okay with that?"
"Sure." Rean nodded in response. "However, there"s one thing I need to ask. After I teach you what I know, how long do you intend to keep us here? We also want to live our own lives, cultivate, travel, and do things like that. We don"t want to stay locked in some place forever."
"Hmph!" Linfia snorted in response. "If we let you go, that also means that you would bring a lot of our bloodline formations" secrets to the humanoids. You should have thought that before showing yourselves."
Rean sighed after hearing that. "Is that so?"
Yet, Placake shook his head. "Forget what she said. I can let you all go one day, but it will definitely take time. At the very least, that"ll happen far in the future."
"Placake!" Linfia immediately intervened.
"Enough!" Placake didn"t let her continue, though. "We can compare the Circuitry Formations from both sides to decide that in the future. In any case, that"s something that"ll only happen many years later. If we don"t make some compromise, then we truly can"t blame him for tampering with our formations in the future. Let"s first start with some resemblance of mutual work, understood?"
Mladrem and Gardo nodded. They didn"t have Linfia"s temperament, so it was easier for them to accept. Besides, Placake had already been one of the demon beasts" leaders for a very long time. Rarely had he ever been wrong when dealing with such important situations.
