"You probably don't know yet, right?" Philip paused for a moment before slowly saying, "Reynold is dead!"
"Reynold?" Lin Dong didn't know how to react.
"The leader of the Knights Templar! Not only is he dead, but Andre from the Knights Templar is also dead! " Fox mocked mercilessly. "If Andre died because of his injuries, it would be pardonable. But Reynold's death was his own doing!"
"Don't tell me he swallowed the Blood Core directly?" Lin Dong thought of this possibility.
"That's not it. The lesson of the past thousand years is still fresh in our minds. No matter how stupid Reynold is, he wouldn't swallow the Blood Core directly. However, after returning from Purgatory, Reynold felt that he was severely lacking in strength, so he desperately absorbed the Blood Core's energy. His body over-fused with the monster's Blood Core genes that he brought back, and his body's genes couldn't withstand it and completely collapsed. Although the Knights Templar had their own unique neutralizer, Reynold had absorbed too many Blood Core genes, and the neutralizer lost its original effect. Reynold struggled in extreme pain before dying. It was said that after he died, his body turned into a pool of flesh and blood. It was a very tragic death! "Fox recounted the entire incident to Lin Dong.
"Reynold is dead, Andre is seriously injured, and the Knights Templar lost Father Jacques and the Pierre brothers in Purgatory. Doesn't that mean that the Knights Templar are only left with the one-armed Father Jacques and Deputy Leader Hugo?" Lin Dong had the most impression of Hugo in the Knights Templar.
"Yes, the elites of the Knights Templar are all gone, and there's internal turmoil. The entire situation is almost falling apart, but fortunately, there's still Hugo! This man is actually more suitable to be the leader than Reynold. He's good at both offense and defense, and he has a tenacious fighting spirit and a mind full of wisdom that Reynold can't reach. Even if it takes a little more time, I believe he can lead the remaining Knights Templar to rise again. "Philip hinted that the Darkness Palace wouldn't just stand by and watch.
Among the teams that returned from Purgatory, the Knights Templar was the one that suffered the most losses.
It turned out that they were already severely injured.
Now that Reynold and Andre had passed away one after another, it had exacerbated the decline of the Knights Templar. If there wasn't a powerful organization like the Darkness Palace to pull them back, they were likely to become a thing of the past.
Even if they managed to maintain it, they would gradually become a second or third-rate force.
It would be difficult for him to achieve anything in the future.
The Darkness Palace needed more forces to restrain the Eden Legion, which was the most influential force in the public eye.
If the Darkness Palace chose to stand by and do nothing this time, the balance of the forces in Europe was very likely to be broken, and the ambitious Eye of God might immediately intervene. If the Eye of God were to help the Knights Templar, it would be equivalent to letting the Eye of God find a qualified spokesperson in Europe and nail a solid bridgehead. This was an outcome that the Palace of Darkness did not want to see.
Similarly, it wouldn't be a good thing if the Eden Army took over the Knights Templar.
Lin Dong was not concerned about the Darkness Palace's considerations.
The rise and fall of the Knights Templar.
He didn't care either.
In the entire Knights Templar, the only one that Lin Dong felt was worthy of his attention was Hugo.
"After Hugo officially takes over the Knights Templar, he may come to you!" William said with slight hesitation. "Although he didn't say it, Hugo is smarter and more pragmatic than Reynold. In order to revive the Knights Templar, he will definitely put aside all his pride and come to Dong Mountain to beg for your help, Mr. Wood!"
"I'm not interested in European affairs. I won't participate in the competition between you." Lin Dong knew that the Knights Templar and the Teutonic Knights were competitors. The Knights Templar had suppressed the Teutonic Knights until Griffon, Donquixote, and Panza underwent genetic surgery. Only then did they gradually recover. Now that the Knights Templar had reached the top with great difficulty, of course, they were unwilling to give up their position.
"Thank you. We actually don't mean to interfere with your wishes, Mr. Wood. We only hope that we can compete fairly in the future." William quickly expressed the intentions of the Knights Templar.
"Let's put it this way. Even if Hugo comes to Dong Mountain, I will only treat him as a teammate on an expedition. I won't change my original attitude because of the changes in the Knights Templar and the conditions he offers. "In contrast, Griffon and the others are more important in my heart. I have more expectations for the cooperation between the Knights Templar and the Knights Templar. As long as you continue to maintain such a positive attitude, then we will continue to cooperate happily in the future. "This is not only for William and Philip. My attitude towards your side is the same!" Lin Dong didn't want to jump into the whirlpool of European underground forces for the time being. There were a lot of messy things waiting for him at home!
Hearing Lin Dong's affirmative answer, William and Philip secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
At the same time, they were extremely grateful.
They knew.
With Lin Dong's strength.
It was very easy to take the opportunity to nurture a force.
The Knights Templar and the Eastern European Grand Alliance were two clear examples. The Eastern European Grand Alliance was originally like a pile of loose sand, and the Knights Templar were endlessly sinking. They couldn't see a future at all. But after the two forces cooperated with Mr. Wood, they immediately hit the bottom and rebounded. The momentum of their rise shocked the old forces like the Plantagenet Dynasty, the Eye of God, and the Palace of Darkness.
Unlike Philip and the others, Fox's intention was for the monster's blood core. "I want to know, if we absorb a large amount of blood core genes, will our bodies collapse like Reynold's?"
"I don't think so. Your genes are already very stable. They shouldn't be able to absorb foreign monster genes, but they will be attacked. If you forcefully inject it into your body, it might be very painful until the body's genes expel all the monster genes from your body." Lin Dong had thought of this possibility.
"Can we still use the blood core to improve?" Fox asked again.
"Yes." Lin Dong nodded. "As long as you can remove the monster genes and leave only the energy in the blood core."
"I also have a question, Lord Lin Dong. Compared to us, do you think it's still necessary to extract the genes in the blood core?" Enoko Kazama asked.
"Let me give you an example about the blood core genes!" Lin Dong sorted out his words and said, "If the genes in your body are all above 60, then the blood core genes of the monster will only be 10, 20, and 30. Even the blood core genes of the wyvern will not exceed 60 compared to your current genes. Do you think it's still necessary to extract them? More genes isn't always better. I believe you've seen it for yourself. The mutants and humanoids in Purgatory have two or more types of genes conflicting in their bodies. That's why their bodies are distorted to such a terrifying state. "
"Lord God, then won't the blood cores we brought back from Purgatory be useless?" Griffon was the most anxious because he had brought back the most blood cores.
"It might be useless to you guys, but it's still useful to ordinary people. The prerequisite is for you guys to successfully fuse the monster genes in the blood cores with the injector's body. Wasn't your previous genetic experiments like this? It's not impossible. There's bound to be one out of a thousand people who can adapt to different genes. It's just that the success rate is pitifully low! "Lin Dong laughed.
"I don't care about others, I just want to use the blood cores myself!" Griffon pursued his own strength.
"It's impossible to use them directly. There needs to be a conversion process." Lin Dong pondered for a while. "You can bring the blood cores to me, but I can't guarantee that the results will be 100% suitable for you!"
"You mean we can only accept a certain type of blood core or a certain portion of blood core energy, right?" Enoko Kazama reacted quickly and understood immediately.
"There's a limit to everyone's tolerance. I suggest you guys bring out the potential of the gene medicine first and consider accepting other types of energy when you're close to your limits. The blood core energy you guys have injected right now won't be of much help. At most, you'll just fill your stomachs and eat a big meal. You guys can keep the blood cores for now. I'm still researching the fusion of their active factors and energy. You guys can use them for conversion if there's any progress! It's still too early for you guys. First of all, you're not strong enough and absorbing it randomly would be a waste. Second, you guys haven't grasped the technique at all. You guys have only scratched the surface when it comes to blood energy. Only by truly mastering this technique will you be able to absorb the blood core energy more effectively! " Lin Dong gave some pointers to Griffon and the others. It would be a waste of time if they didn't practice the blood energy technique taught by Timos.
"We'll definitely practice well and work hard!" Griffon patted his chest and promised.
"Yes, Sir Lin Dong." Enoko Kazama also obeyed.
"I've always been working hard. In terms of blood energy, I'm much better than these lazy bums!" Fox smiled proudly. Her progress was indeed much greater than Griffon and Jonathan.
"Sir Deity, can we grow a blood core in our bodies? I mean, can we grow something like a blood core that can store energy? "This was the answer Griffon wanted to know the most. He felt that the blood energy technique could be practiced, but if there was a blood core that could store energy, then there would be a high-pressure water pump for him to use in the future. His combat strength would definitely increase greatly.
"It's impossible to grow something like that in the human body. You'll become a monster if you do!" Lin Dong shook his head.
"What a pity!" Griffon was dejected.
"If you want, I can think of a way to let you produce something similar to a blood core in your body. However, it won't be muscle tissue, but rather an energy vortex opened by acupoints. Its shape is also slightly different from a blood core, but the overall effect is similar. This is possible!" Lin Dong gave him a pleasant surprise.
"Re-really?" Griffon suddenly felt that the whole world was filled with light.
"Your current water level is still far from enough. Continue to work hard, idiot!" Lin Dong reprimanded this fellow without holding back.
"Yes, yes, yes, I'll definitely work hard. I promise to meet your requirements, no matter how hard it is!" Griffon smiled widely and bowed to Lin Dong, expressing his attitude.
"Can we have it too?" Jonathan and the rest were so envious that they could not help it.
"Let's talk about it when your combat strength is above 35 points! You've been back for so long, but your combat strength has only increased by 1 point. I think you've been wasting your time these past few days. " Lin Dong was not polite to Jonathan and the rest, criticizing them directly. However, his attitude made Jonathan and the rest happy. If Lin Dong did not even look at them and did not care about their training, that would be terrible!
"35 points of combat strength?" Jonathan's heart was full of enthusiasm. Although 35 points of combat strength was a little difficult, it was not an unattainable goal.
Sitting on the side, Don Quixote and the rest had a bitter face.
They were a little far from 35 points of combat strength.
If they did not work hard.
They were afraid that they would be left behind by Griffon and Jonathan who had better potential.
For Fox and Enoko Kazama, Lin Dong gave them each a Vitality Pill to repair their internal injuries. With Fox and Enoko Kazama's self-healing ability, it was only a matter of time before they recovered. But Lin Dong decided to give them a little benefit: "I heard that there are a lot of mercenaries coming to Dong Mountain. If they want to come here to develop themselves, I'll be very happy. But if they want to come here to make trouble, I think they are a little naive. I don't have time to deal with this mess, but if someone is willing to help, I think I'll be very grateful. "
Fox and Enoko Kazama looked at each other, they instantly understood what kind of task Lin Dong had given them, that is to "clean up the trash"!
"Understood!" Fox took the Vitality Pill, her small face smiling like a little fox, she made a military salute and promised: "Please rest assured, this kind of cleaning work is what I'm best at!"
"The underground Dark River Monitor will welcome their sumptuous dinner!" Enoko Kazama gracefully bowed to Lin Dong.
"We can also …" Griffon jumped up anxiously.
I can do this kind of work too!
Not to mention getting the Vitality Pill, even if I don't have it, I'll still do it!
Lin Dong glared at him: "What you need most now is training. If you have time, you can help me promote the Holographic Virtual Game. Especially you, didn't you always think that your image in the adventure was not strong enough? Now I'll give you a chance to participate in the live broadcast, and through the game, you can reverse your 'glorious image' in the movie! And this is just the beginning, in the future I will consider releasing a part of the Purgatory adventure. You can use Death Canyon to practice first, then return to Purgatory to challenge it. It will be very good for you to improve! "
Griffon's skin was already as thick as a city wall: "Great Kami, I think we can squeeze out a little more time, I can cooperate with Fox and the others in the cleaning work!"
Everyone was defeated by him.
Was there a need to do this just to snatch work?
But there was no use in despising this guy, because he had long thrown away his integrity!
Fox did not mind having an errand boy. She clapped her hands: "Good, from now on you will listen to my arrangements! By tomorrow morning at the latest, I need information on all the mercenaries who entered the country, especially those who sneaked in, not a single one can be left out! "
"Beautiful and respectable Miss Fox, when you wake up tomorrow morning, all the information will be on your table!" Griffon bowed obsequiously, pretending to give Fox a gentleman's salute.
"Really?" Fox was still a little suspicious of Griffon.
"Please call me Holmes Griffin, thank you!" Griffon was very confident.
