Doomsday Code

Chapter 897 Bamboo Leaf Green Fisher Doug

Samlett's eyes flickered slightly after hearing this, and he then seriously examined Jin Hong in front of him.

"You must be the eldest son of a prestigious family in the imperial court. Why would you want to befriend someone as single as me?"

Samuel wasn't blind; he could tell Jin Hong's social class from his clothes.

Jin Hong smiled and said:

"It's very simple. You were able to tell that I was someone of high status just from my clothes, and you ignored me every time I greeted you. Doesn't that explain why I should befriend you?"

Jin Hong's answer was quite wise, but Samlett did not appreciate the clever young man at this moment. On the contrary, he felt a hidden murderous intent towards him.

To reiterate, reality is not about mutual respect between opposing camps, but rather a life-or-death struggle between them.

Jin Hong comes from a prestigious family, which makes it inherently impossible for him to do anything that goes against his own and his family's interests in order to help Samette's desired restoration of the nation.

On the contrary, his wisdom will be used against himself and Chen Cheng.

However, Sam's murderous intent this time was so subtle that no one noticed it.

"I can only say you're mistaken. I'm just the son of an ordinary country tailor. I just got lucky and got into the Royal Academy's Warrior Division."

Sam was not making this up; that's exactly what his student ID said.

After all, the only way for a guild to tamper with people's way into the academy is through the identity of these neglected and unwanted Warrior's Path students.

Jin Hong laughed and said:

"I knew I hadn't made a mistake in befriending you. I don't know your name yet, my name is Jin Hong."

"The name doesn't matter. If you can, please take me back to the academy. I want to participate in this academy selection."

The selection Samlett is referring to is, of course, the academy selection competition that the Kingdom of Como is holding in preparation for the upcoming parliamentary elections.

After all, a large country like the Kingdom of Como has a royal academy that produces talents that are far superior to those of other small and medium-sized kingdoms in every aspect.

Therefore, the members of the competition to deal with these small and medium-sized kingdoms are all selected directly from within the academy.

The real challenge is to compete against the other major kingdoms, where truly hidden geniuses are needed.

Looking at Samlett's aloof demeanor, Jin Hong knew that warrior cultivators like them, without any background, had earned their place in the guild through sheer hard work and battles.

Naturally, this makes them much colder in their interactions with others.

Samuel, with his cold and indifferent nature, is considered relatively mild. Some of the more twisted and short-tempered types, however, will attack you without regard to your status.

Under Jin Hong's guidance, Samlett roughly toured the second ring road of the capital.

Although Samlett knew that Jin Hong was going in circles and trying to win him over, he was not offended.

Upon arriving at the gates of the Royal Academy, Samlett thanked Jin Hong for the first time.

Although the terrain and buildings outside the Second Ring Road have changed over the past two hundred years, the academy buildings have remained unchanged.

Showing his student ID, Samlett strode into the Royal Academy.

Standing outside the school, Jin Hong watched Sam's retreating figure, wondering if Sam's cold words of thanks were an indication that he was willing to accept his offer of help.

On the surface, the Kingdom of Como appears calm and peaceful, but a power struggle for succession, just like that in the Kingdom of Mos, has already begun in secret.

This general election in the House of Representatives is the focus of the competition among the princes.

Jin Hong never imagined that Sam's "thank you" wasn't an acceptance of his advances, but rather a promise not to kill him.

Samuel Leigh's purpose in coming out this time is not only to investigate the reason for the early convening of the House of Representatives, but also to seek revenge.

Two hundred years have passed. He fled with the fourteenth emperor back then, but he has had neither the time nor the opportunity in these two hundred years.

Only when he came to Chen Cheng did Chen Cheng liberate him, and the first thing this unleashed beast did was seek revenge.

These rebels have lived in peace for two hundred years, slandering Emperor XIII and all subsequent emperors for two hundred years. No one can punish their sins, so Samuel will be the first to do so.

Sam's purpose in entering the College was very clear: the College's structure had not changed much when he came here on behalf of the Demigod Temple to invite someone three hundred years ago.

After walking along the narrow path paved with bluestone slabs and passing through a lush bamboo forest, a bamboo house surrounded by a fence came into view.

The bamboo house is no longer green, but has turned a withered yellow from the erosion of time.

Sam stopped in front of the fence.

Because at this moment, thorny vines had grown in front of the bamboo gate, blocking it completely.

Seeing the familiar method, Sam's lips curled into a smile. He then reached out and grabbed the thorny vines on the bamboo door, squeezing them hard.

Instantly, the vines seemed to be subjected to immense pressure from all directions, causing countless cracks to appear before they collapsed.

At the same time, the bamboo house, whose door was tightly closed, was opened from the inside, and the voice of an old man cursing came out.

"You're going to die! Didn't you see my magic? Which brat broke it? I'll beat your ass to a pulp!"

"Bamboo Leaf Green, you old fellow, it's been a long time."

Upon hearing the familiar address, Fisher Doug stopped walking with his cane, and his grumbling ceased.

He looked up toward the courtyard gate and saw Samette transformed.

Although Sam's current appearance has nothing to do with his original appearance, he has transformed from a middle-aged man into a handsome young man.

But Fisher Doug always remembered that face, because he had that same face on the day Samlett came to him to welcome him into the Temple of the Demigods.

This all comes down to the rules of the Demigod Temple. Once someone reaches the level of a demigod and passes the selection process, Samuel, the Temple Master of the Demigod Temple, will personally find that person and then personally welcome them into the Demigod Temple in front of everyone.

Receiving such an honor not only affirms their strength and achievements, but also greatly enhances their reputation.

This is one of the reasons why everyone aspires to join the Demigod Temple.

Fisher Doug never expected that after so long, he would still hear the familiar code name and see that familiar face.

However, Fisher Doug was not as happy as Samlett. There was no smile on his face. Instead, he turned around and ran into the bamboo house, then slammed the door shut.

Meanwhile, Fisher Doug's heavy breathing could be heard through the crack in the door.

His reaction was not unexpected for Sam. He pushed open the bamboo gate, walked into the yard, looked around, and then sat down on a bamboo chair in the yard.
