“It’s still not too late to go back on your words now if you don’t want to.” Jameson looked at Chen Heng and spoke solemnly.

Chen Heng believed that Jameson’s words had some credibility. After all, Chen Heng was also a royal bloodline even if he did not join the so-called Saint Child Plan, and he was a talent that Jameson lacked the most. If Chen Heng decided to regret it, Jameson might agree to it.

Jameson initially thought that even Chen Heng would at least hesitate for a moment even if he chose to continue to join the experiment. It was impossible for him not to react at all.

However, Jameson was wrong in the end. Before him, Chen Heng looked calm. There was no change in his expression from beginning to end. His attitude was firm, which was very surprising.

“There’s no need to.” Chen Heng smiled and said, “Since I’ve already decided to walk this path, there’s no reason to regret it. If I fail, it proves I was born with this fate. I have no regret.” He said softly. His expression was unusually calm, as if there were no fluctuations in his emotions.

Jameson was silent for a moment before saying, “I now believe you can pass this trial. Before Grissom joined the experiment, I asked him the same question, and he also did not give up.” Chen Heng smiled and said softly.

“Yes, he did not give up, just like you.” Jameson nodded and said, “The difference is that he hesitated and struggled for a long time before finally deciding and continuing to participate in the experiment. So your will is much stronger than his, and the probability of passing is much higher.” He looked at Chen Heng with a look of admiration on his face.

The importance of willpower was self-evident. It could even be said that it was the most crucial part of the Saint Child’s experiment. Without willpower, the success rate would be infinitely reduced even if the conditions were suitable. Jameson believed Chen Heng’s willpower was strong enough compared to the others.

“Go.” He smiled and said, “The person in charge of receiving them is already waiting. You can just follow them and leave.”

“Okay.” Chen Heng nodded respectfully and followed the person in front quietly.

Time slowly passed…

The light of the teleportation array flickered and then gradually dimmed. As the array’s light completely disappeared, Chen Heng’s figure disappeared. From the looks of it, he should be heading to the council’s headquarters.

Jameson couldn’t help but sigh as he looked at Chen Heng’s disappearing figure and seemed to think of the past.

“Elder, what are we going to do next?” Beside him, Kana’s figure walked out of the small house as he spoke respectfully.

“There’s no need to do anything else. We’ll just wait quietly for the results to appear.” Jameson shook his head and said, “We’ll talk about the specific details after he survives the first round of experiments.” Then, he turned around and walked straight into the small house at the side.

…

The light from the array was flickering. When the light disappeared, Chen Heng opened his eyes and looked around. There was a spacious space, which it should be in a certain palace. Dense arrays were carved all over the place, making one feel terrified. Even if one wasn’t proficient in arrays, one could feel the arrays’ terrifying power with the most basic spiritual power.

‘Have we arrived?’ Chen Heng opened his eyes, walked out of the array, and looked around.

Many workers in uniform black robes were busy with work, and on their chests were badges representing the King’s Council. A young girl came to welcome him.

“Welcome, respected Mr. Kling.” The young girl greeted him with a smile.

Chen Heng looked at her. There were many workers here, but most were not young anymore. Very few were as young as this girl before him. Moreover, her clothes seemed much more exquisite, so her level should be higher.

“Hello.” Chen Heng nodded as a greeting.

“My name is Caitlin, and I’m one of the people in charge here. I’ll be in charge of all your needs during this period.” Seeing Chen Heng’s reaction, the young girl smiled and said, “Now, please follow me.”

She took the lead, and Chen Heng followed in her footsteps. Not long after, they walked out of this area and came to the outside world. There was a lush garden outside the hall, with many plants from the outside world. There were also some butterflies fluttering in the air. It was an extremely beautiful scene.

“This is your residence. If there are no problems, the experiment will begin in two days.” Caitlin said, looking at the row of rooms before him.

“Have the others come over?” Chen Heng asked subconsciously.

“They came over. But, of course, there are a few people who are not cooperative, so they are not in this place.” Caitlin smiled and continued, “For example, Prince Aili of the Violet Empire.”

“Him?” Chen Heng thought about Ali’s past personality and nodded, “That’s normal.”

“Besides those who didn’t cooperate, some prepared to participate in the experiment. So there are 53 people, including you, Mr. Kling.” Caitlin continued to explain.

“53 people…” Chen Heng was a little surprised, but he soon understood.

An important experiment like the Saint Child’s experiment naturally did not lack experimental subjects. On the contrary, if there were fewer people, the experiment, which was already difficult to achieve, would become even more difficult.

As for Chen Heng, he would also try to collect as many experimental subjects as possible to perfect the entire experiment and increase its success rate. However, the ability to gather 53 people itself was strong enough.

One had to know that these 53 people were not randomly chosen. On the contrary, each of them represented a powerful royal bloodline. Of course, these royal bloodlines might not be pure and powerful enough, but finding them in the outside world was difficult.

Yet, here, dozens of people were randomly taken out. Besides, not all of them were here. There were also the experimenters who did not cooperate, like Aili. Caitlin turned around and left after explaining to Chen Heng. Then, Chen Heng also went into his room and rested.

The rooms looked the same on the outside, but the interior seemed to be pretty good. It was nicely decorated with all kinds of exquisite decorations. The only bad thing was that the room’s soundproofing seemed somewhat problematic.

Chen Heng was about to put his things down and rest for a while when he heard a series of sounds coming from the room beside him. It was a low sobbing sound, sounded somewhat depressed and silent as if it had been deliberately lowered so as not to be discovered by others.

Chen Heng listened to the sound and could not help but be silent for a moment. According to Caitlin, those people living here voluntarily participated in the experiment. However, from its looks, even if it was so-called voluntary, there was still not as simple.

Chen Heng sighed, then sat at the bedside, quietly entering a meditative state. After a long while, the suppressed sobbing sound in the room beside finally stopped, and everything returned to normal.

‘Maybe…’

Chen Heng sat on the bed and meditated silently.

The sky was bright outside the next day. So Chen Heng went out, took a stroll outside, and understood everything better. Many of the workers here were ordinary people who were probably selected from the outside world, in charge of the work here.

However, compared to the ordinary people in the outside world, the aura of the people serving here was somewhat strange, as if they were tainted with some unknown power. These were all puppets directly controlled.

Chen Heng looked at their passionate faces working hard and couldn’t help but think. It seemed that the King’s Council was very good at exploiting people. This base was filled with much mortal labor and only a few people with bloodlines like Caitlin, perhaps out of consideration for stability.

As he was thinking, the door to the room beside opened, and a pretty girl came out. She looked only 17 or 18, still at her most youthful and beautiful stage. However, this was only on the surface.

As bloodline masters, their looks might not be their real age, just like Chen Heng’s body. On the surface, he looked like he was only in his early 20s, but in reality, he was at least a few decades old. Therefore, the bloodline masters’ age could not be determined from the surface.

The girl wore a long red robe, looking exquisite. Her eyes were slightly purple. This was a characteristic that occasionally appeared in the Gilna Royal Family. Was she a member of the Gilna Royal Family?

“Hello.” The girl was stunned when she saw Chen Heng and greeted, “Nice to meet you.” However, she looked somewhat haggard and seemed to be in a depressed mood.

Chen Heng smiled and nodded, “I don’t know your name.”

“Aimer Gilna.” The young girl revealed some hesitation on her face, then she said.

“Princess Aimer?” Chen Heng was instantly stunned.

Aimer Gilna, a name that Chen Heng was very familiar with. She was his brother, Prin Aili’s fiancée, who had been attacked long ago, and her whereabouts were unknown. From its look, she had come here.

“Sir, what is your name?” Aimer welcomed Chen Heng. She was not surprised by his reaction and forced a decent smile.

There were many royal families in this world, but as the princess of the direct line of descent of the three great empires, she was the most prominent one. So it was not strange for others to know about her.

“Me?” Chen Heng was silent for a moment, then smiled, “Kling Nardo is happy to serve you.” As he spoke, he bowed as a form of courtesy.
