Ultimate Supreme Soldier King

Chapter 1635 1630: I Will Protect the Nopheler Family

Giving Su Chen some benefits is not a difficult matter for him, because he believes that Su Chen can bring him greater advantages.The blessing of a Holy Artifact could likely allow him to quickly recover from all injuries and push his strength to the Peak of a First-class Duke, right?

Moreover, besides the Holy Artifact in the Dark Council, there are plenty of good things there.

The depth of the Dark Council's heritage, if Karloki were to reveal it all, would be enough to make countless people envious.

Karloki has already spoken to this extent, so Su Chen naturally had no choice but to accept.

After all, it's clear that all of this is beneficial for Su Chen. Even if Karloki has some reservations, he's kept them to a minimum.

For instance, the existence of the blood clan's Holy Artifact, such matters can't be verbalized. Apart from that, Karloki has laid all his cards on the table with Su Chen.

If at this point Su Chen still refuses, well, Karloki might as well turn against him.

However, given that this situation is apparently without any downside for Su Chen, why would he refuse?

An Ancient Weapon of no less quality than an upper human class, which Karloki promises to give him right away—Su Chen has no reason to reject it.

And hearing Karloki's meaning, if Su Chen is willing to join, there might be other unexpected gains.

Su Chen just needs to align himself with the Nopheler Family's grand strategic direction and maintain a united front with them.

Karloki had no intention of restricting Su Chen.

But similarly, if Su Chen seeks death, offending too many members of the Dark Council, Karloki won't mind throwing Su Chen out to take the fall.

Interpersonal relations invisibly always harbor countless threats.

Although Su Chen and the Nopheler Family, or rather Karloki, are now on pleasant terms and share common interests, Karloki is already calculating how to reap benefits within the Dark Council with Su Chen as a shield in the future.

It's undeniable that Su Chen's strength is still quite formidable, but what does that matter?

No matter how strong you are, can you withstand the entire blood clan, or the enormous Dark Council?

Of course, they still need Su Chen now, and Su Chen is qualified to become one of them, seeking benefits for Karloki, for the Nopheler Family...

After the broad agreements were finalized, Su Chen and the two key figures of the Nopheler Family emerged from the shadows to the forefront.

By now, those worldly dignitaries and celebrities had long become insignificant bystanders and observers.

The true protagonists had always been the blood clan. If not for the Bright Church's lackeys, perhaps these pitiful creatures wouldn't even be at today's banquet.

Standing at the very outskirts, the dignitaries and celebrities from The Sun Never Sets Empire found themselves unable to leave or stay, but now as the banquet reaches its crucial moment, they can't afford to miss it.

When Su Chen and the two authoritative figures of the Nopheler Family stepped onto the stage, the blood clan ceased their conversations.

All eyes converged on Su Chen and his company.

The true purpose of today's banquet was known to them.

Hosted by the Nopheler Family for a Guest Elder.

Yet, the scale of such a gathering left many puzzled, just an ordinary person.

What qualification does he have to cause numerous noble blood clans to attend collectively?

They appeared today purely for the Nopheler Family's sake.

After all, as one of the Thirteen Clans, the Nopheler Family is not to be underestimated.

Moreover, today also marks the first gathering of the blood clans after the millennial holy war, a naturally unmissable event.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the purpose of today's banquet by the Nopheler Family, I believe, is clear to everyone. I won't bore you further. Please welcome Mr. Death God," Harlow Nopheler announced indifferently to the crowd.

In reality, Su Chen's presence had already caught the attention of many present.

Yet, as the host, the Nopheler Family hadn't introduced Su Chen to the crowd.

Therefore, the blood clans temporarily suppressed their curiosity.

But now, as Su Chen stepped onto the stage, many young blood clan talents naturally turned their attention to Su Chen.

They wanted to see what capabilities this guy, about to become the Nopheler Family's Guest Elder, possessed.

Su Chen's Eastern features were so prominent in the banquet hall.

Earlier, his bold move to kill Marquis Balaton chilled hearts.

It's worth noting that Marquis Balaton was no ordinary person.

He was a true 'upper society' aristocrat.

Yet today, he unexpectedly died here.

Looking at this situation, there's likely no place for reason.

"Ladies and gentlemen, do the Nopheler Family a witness today, Mr. Death God from now on will be our Nopheler Family's First Minister!"

Surprisingly, the one speaking wasn't Harlow Nopheler, but Duke Karloki.

Among those present, most didn't know Karloki.

But there were a few exceptions.

Gugor Kulich and Glenser Othello instinctively exchanged glances.

Duke Karloki was not unfamiliar to them.

Could recruiting such an Eastern human as the Nopheler Family's Guest Elder be Duke Karloki's idea?

As the brother of the previous Family Head of the Nopheler, Duke Karloki wasn't an unknown figure in the blood clan.

Gugor Kulich and Glenser Othello were considered peers with Harlow.

In terms of status, Duke Karloki is even their senior.

According to the normal procedure, after this announcement by the Family Head, the allegiance ceremony should immediately follow.

Su Chen would receive the Nopheler Family's family emblem from Harlow.

This also heralds his true membership in the Nopheler Family.

Sharing joys and sorrows with the Nopheler Family, his every word and deed representing them.

As the Nopheler Family's Guest Elder, he will hold great power.

Su Chen perhaps didn't understand what this signifies.

But in the eyes of the blood clan, this scene is undoubtedly sacred.

However, the following scene left the blood clans in shock.

Without hesitation, Su Chen took the Nopheler Family emblem from Harlow and placed it on his chest.

"I will protect the Nopheler Family!"

Just this simple sentence, nothing more.

The so-called loyalty vow seemingly thrown aside by Su Chen.

What's puzzling is that Harlow Nopheler appeared to have forgotten the matter, never mentioning it.

As they watched the so-called 'ceremony' nearing its end.

Yet someone from the blood clan stepped forward.

"Family Head Harlow, isn't there something still unresolved?"

The speaker was a representative of the Thirteen Clans, but not as highly ranked as Gugor and Glenser.
