Calamity Dragon, Starting with the Cultivation of Knight Families

Chapter 75 York III, The Beginning of Great Chaos in the Kingdom
The prediction day is the 88th day.

Baron's Mansion Bunker.

At this moment, a group of people were guarding the underground bunker, and in the very center of the bunker, Lord York was sitting.

York was enveloped in the light of the array.

Meanwhile, a heart the size of a washbasin was floating in front of York.

The heart was alive, with a large amount of blood constantly flowing out and covering the naked body of York.

York closed his eyes tightly, his expression pained and somewhat ferocious.

"what!"

"Quickly!!! Quickly, give the Lord the Oracle Potion!"

Baroness Lucia, who was about to give birth, looked nervous and immediately spoke up when she saw York cry out in pain.

Upon hearing Lucia's command, the knight Keld, who was standing to one side, immediately opened a bottle of medium-strength healing potion and quickly stuffed it into York's mouth.

York inhaled the healing potion in large gulps, and the horrific sight of his flesh bulging or seemingly cracking subsided somewhat, but it was far from enough.

After all, Warcraft's lifeblood was still being poured into York's body.

"Two more bottles! Quickly!"

Lucia immediately realized what was happening and instructed the knight, Kelder, to increase the dosage.

"Okay, ma'am!"

Kelder's expression also became somewhat tense. Upon receiving the order, he immediately opened two more bottles of healing potions.

Finally, after about two or three minutes, Baron York's pained expression and condition improved effectively.

Seeing this, everyone present finally relaxed.

However, the blood transfusion ceremony continued. In the dimly lit bunker, everyone was staring intently at Baron York, not daring to look away.

After all, this is a mid-level bloodline infusion ritual!
The success rate is extremely low, and most nobles wouldn't dare to take such a risk.

Little did they know that Eric, the old man from Gale Ridge, had been at the third rank for over ten years and still dared not attempt a blood transfusion.

This is actually the norm in this world. After all, nobles are high above others, and it's not some chaotic era. Who would choose to risk their life instead of living a peaceful life?

Let's take a normal baronial territory as an example. If it suffers a defeat once...

Not only would he die, but he would also lose a lot of family funds and potentially cause a shortage of capable leaders in the baronial territory.

This price is actually the real reason why ordinary baronies dare not take the risk.

However, the marshlands of York are different.

With the wilderness as their backdrop and the blessings of the gods, they have no shortage of funds, let alone magic crystals and other spellcasting materials.

They can even freely use divine items like oracle potions, which can greatly increase the success rate of blood transfusions.

If Yorke doesn't take a gamble, then he's not Yorke.

York was filled with even greater longing, and seeing the Rock Steel Dragon gradually progress from a Swamp Giant Lizard to the fifth tier, York felt a serious sense of crisis.

He must keep up with his family's 'god' and obtain the power to help the god before the god fully descends, so that he will not face the possibility of losing divine favor.

He needed to demonstrate his value, and only in this way could his Swamp Territory Smith family truly secure an unprecedented future.

Therefore, after obtaining the fourth-tier Heart Essence and Magic Core on the second day of the Divine Summoning, York immediately instructed his butler and Lucia to purchase all the auxiliary materials for the intermediate-tier Blood Exchange Ritual.

After nearly two and a half months of preparation, everything was finally completed.

Therefore, today, York directly and decisively carried out the mid-level bloodline infusion ceremony.

Ultimately, all the effort and hard work will be rewarded.

Because, under the watchful eyes of Lucia and the other knights and servants, after York underwent a slow blood exchange for about an hour and a half during the ceremony, his aura suddenly began to rise steadily.

The speed at which his aura and magical power increased was extremely fast.

next moment!
A magical wind suddenly erupted from York's body and dissipated.

Level three!

Yes, York successfully advanced to Tier 3 with just one mid-level blood transfusion ritual!
"It's done!!!"

"This is the aura of a third-tier being?!"

"Great! Your Lordship has succeeded!!!"

"Isn't it only natural that Your Lordship is favored by the gods?"

"."

Including Lucia, the seven knights around him all showed happy expressions and cheered! And amidst the cheers, York slowly opened his eyes.

His expression was calm, but his tightly clenched hands betrayed his true thoughts.

Level three!

Now, I have the strength of my father!

York was incredibly excited.

Keep in mind that he's only just turned twenty-six this year.

And his father, old Eric? He only reached the third rank after nearly forty years of hard work.

Even for more than ten years afterward, old Eric was only at the peak of the third tier.

And what about the eldest son of York, the elder brother of Gale Ridge? He is now over thirty years old and has only been at the second rank for a little over five years.

Therefore, as an illegitimate child, York finally felt a sense of pride and triumph.

With a mid-tier bloodline and third-tier strength, York believed that given a few months to adapt to this new bloodline power, he was absolutely confident that he could hold his own against the peak third-tier Eric.

"Congratulations, Lord!"

"Congratulations, Lord!"

"."

One of the assassins brought a garment and draped it over York, while the knights offered their congratulations.

York was in high spirits about this.

He immediately said, "On such a joyous occasion, how can we do without a sumptuous banquet?"

“Paul, go and host a banquet for the resident priest Oleg. I think it’s time to see how many staunch allies this resident priest has recruited for our Lord’s great plan.”

"Yes, my lord, I'll go right away."

After watching Paul leave to carry out his orders, York then looked at his wife.

They looked at each other, both revealing knowing and warm expressions.

York then strode toward Lucia, who was about to give birth, and with sweet words in hand, he helped Lucia up and led the group away from the bunker.

------

The simulation day is the ninety-eighth day.

A sudden piece of news spread!
The Elven Empire has ultimately launched an undeclared war on the human kingdoms!
This is not a small-scale war like land reclamation or even a beast tide, but a true all-out war, another major battle between different races in more than 160 years.

More than ten days had passed before the news reached the Silver Lion Duchy.

The news reported that the Elven Empire's sudden rise to power had immediately conquered most of the territory of three human principalities in the eastern border, and the battle was extremely fierce.

The three great human empires issued orders for all kingdoms to raise the first allied army in accordance with the covenant, in order to fight against the elven empire.

The Eagle Kingdom, of course, had to keep its promise. Even though the situation was not good, it immediately dispatched the Kingdom's Third Legion, a total of 30,000 vanguard troops, to the alliance meeting.

Subsequently, the Eagle Kingdom's conscription order was also issued to all fifteen duchies in the kingdom, requiring each of these duchies' noble territories to contribute one-third of their soldiers to form a coalition army to conquer the Elf Empire.

Unfortunately, at this critical juncture, the conflict between the Church of Truth and the royal family broke out completely!
The Eagle Kingdom wants to take this opportunity to draw nearly half of its military force from the seven duchies with the greatest influence of the Church of Truth. How could the Church of Truth possibly agree to that?

Therefore, the Church of Truth completely broke with the royal family!

Meanwhile, the Pope of the Church of Truth appears to have successfully escaped an assassination attempt targeting him in the capital.

Furthermore, it issued a proclamation in the northern Winged Principality to launch a campaign against King Eagle 38.

The Pope of the Church of Truth stated that Pope Ackerman XVIII has abandoned his faith in the God of Truth and Knowledge and has embarked on a blasphemous and evil path.

At the same time, the various sins of the thirty-eighth generation are listed in detail.

He called upon the noble lords of the various duchies of the Eagle Kingdom to resist the tyranny of the old King Ackerman, guided by 'truth'.

The Church of Truth is merciful and does not seek to completely destroy the royal family, but the old kingdom of Ackerman must abdicate and repent his sins before the idol of the God of Truth and Knowledge.

In an instant, the entire Eagle Kingdom was thrown into complete chaos at this critical moment!

At the same time, the seven duchies near the north of the Eagle Kingdom simultaneously announced their call to join the Church of Truth and demanded that the old King Ackerman abdicate.

At this moment, of the other eight duchies, only six firmly supported the royal family and the old king, including the Silver Lion Duchy.

However, the Duchy of Green Vine, which borders the Duchy of Silver Lion and is also in the western region, chose to support the church.

As a result, the northern border region between the Silver Lion Duchy and the Green Vine Duchy instantly descended into chaos.

Upon receiving this news, York, including the resident missionary Oleg, immediately gathered together and began to discuss the matter with extremely solemn expressions.
