Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire.

Chapter 141: Ur, do you want a wife?

"The old man who refuses to die is a thief!"

Noah looked at the tall tower behind him and couldn't help but sigh.

The demonic disaster that was gradually spreading in the eastern part of Zealandia was suppressed by Ophelia, a six-winged warrior angel who descended from heaven and held a divine sword.

However, she was not able to do it alone. After this second-generation rich girl from Heaven found that the problem seemed to be somewhat serious and she could not handle it alone, she sought support from Heaven.

The Celestial Army Arrives
Many demons who did not have time to react and escape were directly beheaded. The nobles and extraordinary people who were involved with these demons were also ruthlessly judged by the angels. This was a disaster that swept across the eastern countries.

Of course, this is only a rare development opportunity for those extraordinary people who have fallen into hell or tend to be evil. For those neutral parties who uphold justice or have no connection with the devil, this is a rare development opportunity.

Because after the angels' cleaning and purification, too many positions and territories became vacant, and new rulers and managers were urgently needed.

This was a feast, especially for the source of the incident, the United Kingdom of Erestoria, except that it was the royal family that was served on the table.

"Who is the thief?"

Urnos, who looked only about seven or eight years old, asked curiously. Then, his bright black pupils suddenly became sharp, and he scanned the surroundings with his eyes.
"Could it be that a high-level thief has sneaked in?"

"No, it's an old thief with bad intentions."

"Old thief?"

"Yes!"

Noah looked at the little kid in front of him who obviously had no human ability, and couldn't help but sigh.

"I've sent you a wife, and now I'm asking if you want her."

The source of the angels' purification of the nations lies in the Augustus family, and the instigator is a golden dragon that is revered as a holy dragon.

This is information that can be discovered through investigation. After all, when the angel first descended, he was led by the Holy Dragon to track down the devil's traces. Although it was slightly covered up at the time, as long as one is determined to track it down, traces can still be found.

This was an event that was similar to the Silver Dragon's Sorrow but also had many differences. However, the level of impact was undoubtedly the same, directly causing the deaths of many legends and affecting the power structure in a part of the continent.

However, just like the Silver Dragon's Sorrow, no force can openly accuse the Augustus family head-on, and they can't even question them. No matter how big the loss is, they have to grit their teeth and swallow it.

Within the kingdom, the royal family was naturally the one that suffered the most. Not only did a legendary figure die, but most of the royal family members were also liquidated by the angels. Only Theon III, who bore the title of monarch, and a few royal family members escaped.

This is no longer a question of how many years it will take to recover from a serious injury, but rather a question of whether the royal family can still keep the crown and whether they can produce another legend. No one can guarantee that.

In the absence of two legends, on what basis can the royal family be above other legendary families in the kingdom and give orders, and who would obey such a royal family?

You know, after this battle, the royal family is no longer the most powerful noble family in the kingdom. According to certain tacit unspoken rules, the royal family should voluntarily abdicate and hand over the crown to a virtuous person.

But is the royal family really willing to give the crown to the Augustus family, the instigator?
Noah had been worried about this, fearing that the old wizard would cause trouble for him and the Augustus family after finding out that he was the culprit.

If the royal family really wants to keep the crown by force, it is not impossible. The legendary wizard is the backbone. As long as he does not die, the royal family can barely keep the crown.

However, this thought was just the work of a golden dragon who had not experienced a hundred years of time. He underestimated the wisdom and instinct of an old wizard who had experienced hundreds of years of ups and downs and sought benefits and avoided harm.

Just as Noah began to worry about this, the angels who had completed the cleansing of the kingdom were heading to other eastern countries to track down the devil. At this time, the old wizard who had been hiding from the angels appeared again.

The old guy summoned all the people in the clan, carefully selected a group of girls from the remaining royal bloodlines and many branches, and then brought them all to the Augustus family.

This old thief came up and said that the family was no longer worthy of the title and was no longer suitable to bear the name of royal family, so he invited Cassius, the current head of the Augustus family, to become the monarch and take his place.

If that's the case, then it's fine. Noah has to persuade his adoptive mother to accept this benefit. After all, his adoptive father is still in the territory and hasn't left yet, although it's only a matter of time.

But then this old thief actually expressed his willingness to lead his family, attach himself to the Augustus family, marry into the Augustus family, become eternal relatives, and advance and retreat together.

At first glance, it seems very good. This is the royal family, and the so-called strongest legend. The whole family is dependent on them, which is simply a gift package sent from heaven. The Augustus family can become fat in one bite and replace the royal family.

But is it possible?

Of course not!
The royal family occupied the top of the kingdom for many years, and the Augustus family fought hard on the border for many years. It was only after Cassius was promoted that they were able to eat better and live a good life for a few years.

But apart from the legendary factor, the two families are not of the same magnitude. Until now, the Augustus family has not completely controlled the territory under its rule, otherwise why would they enfeoff nobles on a large scale? It is because they lack people.

What about the royal family? Are they short of people?

From the surface, there is a huge shortage of cats. Most of the royal family members in the capital have been killed, leaving only two or three cats and kittens. Now the monarch is still huddled on the throne, in a constant state of fear.

But in fact, the royal family has been multiplying for so many years, and how much of the royal bloodline has been divided out and became the so-called branches and side branches. Now that the main branch has been almost killed, there are still side branches.

The most important thing is that the old mage is still alive. For this old mage, what is the difference between the so-called main line and the side branches? Aren't they all his descendants?
It was nothing more than spending some time to build up some more people. What really caused him heavy losses was the death of that legendary follower, which cut off both his arms.

Now, this old wizard is actually willing to express his willingness to rely on the Augustus family, the instigator of the incident. Not to mention Selena, the person in charge, even Noah knows that this is unacceptable.

The royal family is dependent on the Augustus family. On the surface, it is dependent, but it is still unclear who swallowed whom? The size gap is too big. The Augustus family cannot swallow such a benefit, not to mention that they don’t really want you to swallow it.

Therefore, Selena immediately rejected the suggestion made by the old wizard, saying that the Augustus family had no intention of replacing the royal family, and naturally it was impossible for them to be dependent on the royal family.

So, the old wizard who brought a group of young and beautiful descendants made a compromise and proposed a marriage. The Augustus family was unwilling to marry their daughter, but the royal family was willing. Not only one, but as long as the heir of the Augustus family was willing, they could choose as many as they wanted until they were satisfied.

With such a humble attitude, Selina could no longer refuse directly, but she said that she respected her grandson's own wishes, and as long as Urnos himself was willing, she would not object.

"I'm not interested in women right now!"

Urnos, who is now almost fifteen years old, said bluntly after understanding the whole story.

"okay, I get it."

Noah's answer was not surprising at all.

"However, if the royal family has a princess of high enough status, I can consider marrying her."

After all, he only looks like a child on the outside. Now Urnos has matured mentally and gave Noah an answer that he did not expect.

"A princess of high rank? There are many little girls like this among my descendants." A very kind voice sounded. Noah and Urnos looked in the direction of the voice and immediately saw an old wizard wearing a green robe and leaning on an oak scepter. His hair and beard were all white, full of ancient charm. At first glance, he was a knowledgeable and honest elder.
"Lady Serena, it looks like we are destined to become in-laws."

"A mortal woman without a territorial title is not worthy of me!"

Seeing that his grandmother was also accompanying him, Urnos could not help but guess that the old wizard in front of him who looked very friendly was the old thief that Uncle Noah mentioned.

"Of course, a child as outstanding as you must be the most outstanding child among my descendants to be worthy of you."

Although Urnos's words sounded arrogant and rude, the old wizard did not get angry and continued to smile.

"I do not believe."

But who would have thought that Urnos would not give the legendary wizard in front of him any face at all, but directly shook his head to express doubt.
"Among your descendants, is there really a girl who can match me?"

"Ur, please be polite."

Selena also had to remind from the side, because the scene was really embarrassing. The Duchess glared at Jin Long who had an innocent face.

"No problem. I brought some children this time. Each of them is an outstanding girl."

A strange color flashed in the old wizard's eyes.
"If you don't believe it, you can go and have a look and talk to them, but I believe you will like them."

"it is good."

Urnos agreed immediately.

"..."

Seeing the grandson being taken by the old wizard to choose a wife, Serena walked to Noah angrily and kicked him hard.
"Look at what you have taught my grandson. He is just like a wild man from the mountains. How can he be a noble?"

"This is none of my business. I have arranged for someone to give him a lesson on noble etiquette. He himself doesn't want to listen. What can I do?"

Noah cried out loudly, protesting his injustice. He had taken all the courses that a noble heir should have taken, and not only that, he had even added a lot of his own ideas.

For example: "The Struggle of the Monarch", "The Rise of the Kingdom", "The Resurgence of Empire", etc.

"How come it's none of your business? You've been raising Wuer since he was a child. Do you think his behavior just now was appropriate?"

"I think it's pretty good."

Jin Long showed a satisfied look at this time.

"That old guy has bad intentions from the beginning, and we don't know what he is planning. Let little Wuer embarrass him a little, isn't that a good thing?"

"He is a legendary wizard. Can you please show him some basic respect?"

Seeing Noah's nonchalant expression, Serena couldn't help but remind him,

"Besides, they came here to make concessions and give us benefits. They don't have any bad intentions."

"Give him a gift? Then why is he talking about dependence and marriage?"

Fire spewed out of Noah's mouth and nose. Although the old man looked good, he did not like people like him because they were too calculating.

"He wants to test whether we have the intention to replace him. Now, he just wants to use Augustus' power. He still wants to stabilize the position of the royal family."

Selena shook her head. She had seen through the old wizard's purpose. Of course, the other party did not hide it.

"So, it's just pretending to be dependent on someone, but really taking advantage of them. It's a very good calculation."

Now, if the royal family, which is exhausted and exhausted, wants to retain its power, they must first win the support of the Augustus family, and then they can negotiate with other legendary families one by one, otherwise all will be in vain.

"It's a give and take, it's just an exchange of interests, there's no need to say it so harshly. As long as he can provide enough benefits, why not support him?"

"Well, so, you plan to let Wuer marry the princess of the royal family?"

"It's up to him to decide. If he wants, he can just go with the flow. What's the problem with a mere princess?"

"Yeah, indeed."

The royal family, of course, rejected such an ill-intentioned proposal without any hesitation, but with Augustus' current size, he could still suppress the idea of ​​marrying the princess and it wouldn't cause any waves.

"I want them all!"

However, both Noah and Selina had obviously underestimated the third generation heir of the Augustus family. When they followed him, they immediately saw the little kid, who hadn't even grown any hair yet, pointing at a group of young girls in their prime, and speaking with confidence.

"What do you want? You like them all, and every one of them meets your requirements?"

Noah, who originally just came to watch the fun, couldn't help it.

"No, no matter which one of them, I can't marry them alone. No one is worthy of me. But if I marry them together, plus the territories and titles they can inherit in the future, it's barely okay."

The little boy, who looked delicate and graceful, said seriously.

Although it sounded like a hilarious speech, it was really hard for the girls who were pointed at by the boys to laugh, and each of them looked very unhappy.

It was not just because they were embarrassed by such humiliation, but more importantly, each of them had some bruises and swellings on their bodies, which were caused by being beaten.

In just a moment, the boy, whose height was just above their waists, knocked all of them to the ground, and no one was a match for him.

They couldn't defeat them, and the legendary wizard who brought them here, who was also their ancestor, just stood aside and watched with a smile, without trying to stop them.

"Haha, Madam Serena, since your heir is willing, let's get engaged!"

"?"

Noah looked at this old wizard who could still laugh, and he felt a little admiration for this old guy.
