Gallop. Gallop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All 4 horses carefully pulled on his grand carriage across the snowy roads.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blizzards this time of year were harsh, bringing nothing but death wherever they swept.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In winter, his carriage tires were different.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although flat, they were made slightly rough and thicker than usual.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The horses also had to be careful when moving because if they should slip, his carriage would also go into disarray, causing a heavy tumble and rubble for its carriers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sigh...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man calmly massaged his aching head, only he knew what he was truly worried about.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His guards on horseback riding beside his carriage out in the snow were patient, never complaining and guarding him diligently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The journey from the Holy Grounds to his home lasted for an hour and 15 minutes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The grand estate doors opened and he, the master, was ushered in respectfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Welcome back, master.\" The head butler, the head maid, and the other maids, slaves and servants were already standing in 2 adjacent lines with ample space to greet him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their backs were still bent deeply as they welcomed their master, Eliticus Graymond the 7th, back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'll be taking my meal in my chambers. But first, get my bath ready.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, you command, master.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With quick feet, many dispersed, while the head butler hastily took off his master's cold jacket, as well as his gloves and hat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"After tonight no one should wake me up until later in the day. No morning meals until he says so.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The butler nodded heavily. \"As you wish, master. Unless it's a call from the Holy Leader or the Holy Heir, I will ensure you are undisturbed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, the man calmly walked through several hallways on the same floor, headed for his private bathhouse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure enough, the servants and slaves were still heating the water, and preparing for his arrival.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Eliticus didn't want to wait any longer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>2 of the girls hastily took off their clothes and jumped in with soap and cleaning rags to wash him with.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The water was warm but not the right temperature yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, since their master had taken off his clothes and stepped in, how dare they delay any further?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sitting on a built-in slab within the bathing pool, Eliticus closed his eyes and leaned back, allowing the servant girls to do as they pleased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike other times, tonight's bathing session was quite silent, with everyone seeing Eliticus had a lot on his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>25 minutes later, the bath ended with a happy ending and a clean Eliticus who headed for his bedroom chambers for his meal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was winter, so many fruits were hard to come by.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, they did secure grapes and apples for him to eat alongside soup filled with plenty of meat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was just right since he said he wanted to eat very light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a flash, he had people take the empty dishes away, leaving just the bowls of fruits behind and the jug of honey rum too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>5 minutes... 10 minutes... 30... 1 hour.... 2... 3 hours went by before the entire estate was silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>~Swish!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a flash, Eliticus took off his beddings, getting on his feet and stealthily moving towards a section of his wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pushing a stone brick in, a hidden doorway suddenly slid open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Throwing his head one last time behind his shoulders for the umpteenth time, Eliticus ensured no one was hiding in his room before pulling up his hood and vanishing with a black mask on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vmmmm~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The door closed with Eliticus inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was no time to waste!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clashing both stones at hand, Eliticus quickly lit a nearby Torch and proceeded down the hidden stairway that led far deeper below the estate grounds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today's matter sounded alarm bells in his heart, Especially when recalling the powerful weapons he saw.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Goodness!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Adonis was allowed to wield such weapons, it will only be a matter of time before they rule the world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By then, their cause would be a complete and utter loss!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With every fiber in his being, Eliticus cautiously ran through the space, reaching the very bottom of the stairway before moving across steady grounds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From there it took him another 2 hours and 48 minutes on foot before he met with several others in the city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Understand that this was the Holy Capital city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Do you know how incredibly large it was?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they had a tunnel that took them out of the city on foot, it would take no more than 1~13 hours depending on where one's starting point was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On horseback, the hours were halved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Again, bear in mind that this destination did not take into account the hours it will take for one to tunnel underground their vast estates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some estates required 2~3 hours of walking from the furthest points, as though one were going to Disney land itself or a grand zoo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When people say one can get lost in places, it wasn't a joke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The higher one's status, the bigger their estate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luckily for Eliticus, even though he had a high-ranking position, it wasn't as crazy as those belonging to the majority of the guests seated in the booths tonight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You could say the maximum walking distance from one wall to another wall surrounding his estate was 1 hour, 24 minutes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, if you factor in the fact that his Main manship was located at the center of the estates it should only take him 37~48 minutes depending on his walking speed underneath the tunnel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As said, he already spent 2 hours and 48 minutes tunneling underground, meaning in roughly 45 minutes he had long left his estate and was now roaming underground in the city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After escalating ungrounded, he maneuvered his way despite the curfew and faintly met his comrades at the rendezvous point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They too wore hoods and masks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their skins looked very ordinary, with rough skins and dirtier clothes but he didn't mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is everyone here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes.\" A burnt man replied before turning to face the group. \"Everyone, reveal your symbols.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The group, including Eliticus, was quick to reveal the hidden tattoos the burly man made himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even in this era, every tattoo artist knows what Tattoo they did.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if you replicate it, they would know if it's there or not.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many also remember the skin of the people they tattooed, whether it was rough, it was prone to graining, or filled with veins.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was one of their ways of confirming they were real and not enemies wearing skin masks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the burly man, he tattooed himself under their watchful eyes, so everyone also knew what his Tattoo looked like and how it should be.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moving on, they said keywords that only they could understand, asking one another for the meaning behind them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a last precautionary step, no one dared remove their masks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, one could never be too sure if there were no enemies within their midst.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I heard strange news from my master,\" Eliticus said with a slightly raised tone. \"My master returned from some meeting, very excited and so drunk he babbles about great weapons that could change things for us.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even now Eliticus was pretending to be a servant in his own manor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How dare he say he saw it with his own eyes? No way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When posing as a double agent, one must leave a way for themselves to escape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He has been a double agent for over 5 years now, working for the Rebellion!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That's right!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although a majority of people in Adonis were completely brainwashed, a few of them still retained their senses, fathering in the dark and forming their plans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Over the years, they had attacked several under the guise of being Morgs but were just people who wanted their freedoms back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They didn't want their wives or sisters taken away, nor did they want to live in a world of constant tyranny, where they can't even lift their heads for fear someone would report them for the littlest things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sometimes they even send messages to Morgany hoping they will come and fight the enemy alongside them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the Morgs were also very smart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They would take the news but never engage directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, everyone was happy with the changes that happened during these past 2 years, with news of this strange Baymardian empire giving Adonis all the headache they could get.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They thought that one day, Baymard might be their new savior and ally to help them rid this place of Adonis' influence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But tonight's news not only shattered their dreams but left them weak and disparate on how to fight against enemies wielding such divine weapons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it be that they were wrong and Adonis was the true God... the true future of the world?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What do we do now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1527,"2026-06-03T07:56:00.901Z","2026-06-03T07:56:05.877Z",1,"novelbin.me","2e13d5ba8850245c737691ea5c76a74202378c286d534f47fd1824cdf1164856","i-m-the-king-of-technology-chapter-1727","i-m-the-king-of-technology-chapter-1725",1977,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-m-the-king-of-technology-cover.jpg"]
