Chapter 1749 Hard Decision
His Majesty Lekas pinched the bridge of his nose.
The huge pressure brought about by the Erehuana Military Treaty Alliance made him unable to obtain a good rest in the past half a year. Although with his powerful strength as a top-notch Star-Grade Martial Artist, there would not be any problems with his body, he could not help but feel a little exhausted.
The difficult choice he was facing now made his mental exhaustion even more obvious.
Could it be that… he really had to publicize the Exterminating Heart Technique like Chu Nan had said?
Learning the third level of the Meat Grinder Divine Technique that Chu Nan had created allowed the Declan Empire to obtain victory in a certain venue on the main battlefield, but this could not fundamentally resolve the problem.
Although there were enough members of the Declan royal family, and there were even more than 10,000 in total, every member of the royal family who could obtain the qualifications to inherit the royal family was definitely not weak and had high talent, less than a tenth of them could reach the requirement that Chu Nan had to at least have the strength of the Heaven Control Realm and have enough comprehension of the Exterminating Heart Technique.
Although the effect of the cultivation method Chu Nan created was very shocking, allowing any member of the royal family who learned this cultivation method to easily defeat one or more of the “quick” Star-Grade Martial Artists of the Erehuana Military Treaty Alliance on the main battlefield, allowing the Declan Empire to obtain a chance to catch their breath or even win on the main battlefield, the total number of royal descendants qualified to learn this cultivation method, coupled with those stronger princes, was only about a thousand.
On the other hand, the “quick” Star-Grade Martial Artist from the Erehuana Military Treaty Alliance had a terrifying number of more than 10,000 and was still increasing.
Even if Chu Nan was hardworking enough and those descendants of the royal family were hardworking or even risking their lives, the huge difference in numbers could not be made up. As a result, even if there was a turnaround on the main battlefield, the Declan Empire was still retreating.
Of course, His Majesty Lekas knew very well the reason for all this.
He did not agree with Chu Nan’s suggestion that he could not announce the Exterminating Heart Technique. Then, there were only more than a thousand descendants of the royal family who had learned the third level of the Meat Grinder Divine Technique. However, the Erehuana Military Treaty Alliance did not have such reservations and restrictions and invested the power of the entire Perseus Arm they controlled.
The Declan Empire was equivalent to using a genius martial artist from their royal family to fight all the Heaven Control Martial Artists in the entire Perseus Arm and a large area on the silver plate controlled by the Erehuana Military Treaty Alliance.
No one doubted the talent and strength of the young descendants of the royal family, and no one did not think that the royal family had the most experts in the entire Milky Way.
However, a family was only a family after all. Even if the Declan royal family had been passed down for more than ten thousand years, their population far exceeded any ancient family in the Milky Way. It could not be compared to the entire country.
The reason why the Declan Empire could become the three great factions of the Milky Way and stand tall in the entire Milky Way for more than ten thousand years was not only because of the Declan royal family, but also because of the countless talented and powerful martial artists in the empire.
They had abandoned these experts outside the race now. With their own strength, it was naturally not enough to fight the entire Erehuana Military Treaty Alliance.
His Majesty Lekas pinched the bridge of his nose again and sighed softly. Then, he picked up the call with President Anduin.
A moment later, President Anduin’s old face that emitted a trace of death appeared in front of His Majesty Lekas.
Seeing His Majesty Lekas, the two of them smiled bitterly at the same time.
After a moment of silence, President Anduin shook his head lightly and asked, “What? Lekas, have you suddenly contacted me? Have you made a decision?”
Emperor Lekas was silent for a moment before slowly nodding with a serious expression.
“Yes. I’ve thought about it a lot in the past few days. In the end, I still feel that Gremayne is very right. Our Declan royal family doesn’t only rely on a cultivation method to stand tall. We rely on the spirit that our race has inherited for more than ten thousand years, our tireless pursuit of martial techniques, our absolute respect for experts, our…”
“Alright.” President Anduin waved his hand and interrupted His Majesty Lekas bluntly, “I understand what you mean. However, have you ever thought that after making such a decision, you and I might become the greatest sinners in the history of the Declan royal family?”
His Majesty Lekas was silent again for a moment before nodding.
“I’ve thought about it. However, I’ve also thought about it. It’s not like our race grasped the Exterminating Heart Technique from the beginning. This cultivation method was created by a royal ancestor thousands of years after our race created the empire and was continuously perfected and promoted by the descendants of the royal family. In the end, it became like this. Before this, our race did not have the Exterminating Heart Technique. We could still successfully create a huge empire and still stand at the top of the Milky Way for thousands of years without being defeated. Therefore, I don’t think the Exterminating Heart Technique will really play a decisive role in our fate. Even if we lose it, we’ll still be the strongest family in the entire Milky Way. Everyone will still revere us.”
His Majesty Lekas spoke impassionedly, but President Anduin did not look touched at all. Instead, he revealed a slightly mocking smile.
“If we could really be so revered, we wouldn’t have been forced to this extent by those fellows from Erehuana and wouldn’t have to let a country kid from the Earth Federation help us think of a solution. In terms of reverence, Chu Nan is more deserving of reverence, right?”
The muscles on His Majesty Lekas’s face twitched, and his expression became a little complicated.
After thinking for a moment, he smiled bitterly and shook his head.
“I’ve always had an extremely high evaluation of Chu Nan, but I still didn’t expect him to far exceed my imagination. Fortunately, there’s only one kid like him in the end. Fortunately, he’s only from a small country like the Earth Federation, so we don’t have to be too wary and worried about him.”
“Yes, this kid is an exception, even the greatest exception in the history of the Milky Way’s civilization for more than 10,000 years. Therefore, we can give her more trust.”
“Hmm?” His Majesty Lekas acutely sensed the meaning of President Anduin’s words and looked surprised, “President Anduin, in that case… you agree?”
President Anduin sighed deeply and closed his eyes slightly. In an instant, he seemed to have aged more than ten years, and his entire face became ashen.
“Before the survival of the empire and the survival of our race, a cultivation method is indeed not that important. Go, I hope Chu Nan won’t disappoint us.”
