CHAPTER 336: CHAPTER 165: ASCENDING THE THRONE AS AUGUSTUS (UNIFICATION)

This is truly fatigue.

Duncan never thought there would be a day when he would feel such tiredness. He directly entered the Dimension Space, completing tasks from the perspective of a god, using the power of his mind to accomplish them.

But just as Duncan was about to wrap up.

Suddenly, he noticed a unique rocket launch mark on the projection page of the Dimension Space. When he focused his mind on it, a special prompt appeared.

"Do you wish to conceive offspring?"

(Gender can be selected.)

(Human form breaking the bounds of humanity cannot conceive offspring by conventional means, requiring the consumption of Legendary Level.)

"Do you wish to inject an extraordinary bloodline?"

(Legendary Level can be consumed to inject an extraordinary bloodline into the offspring. It must be an extraordinary bloodline possessed by oneself, and only one Mythical Bloodline can be injected.)

(The Mythical Bloodline the offspring inherits can be passed down, but it will gradually weaken with inheritance.)

Duncan was instantly invigorated.

So, this is where it was waiting for him!

All this time, he had been personally managing everything, wishing he had switched to the god perspective from the start. It’s not much different from playing a game.

No!

Duncan immediately refused, then instructed the maid to summon Anya.

If using this method to conceive offspring by consuming Legendary Level, the first person he thought of was Anya, because he had other plans for the Crow Queen Triss. The Crow Queen seemed to care little for worldly power and was not so concerned about offspring, so Duncan considered whether to help the Crow Queen ascend to godhood.

Anya is the one who desired all of this the most.

Undoubtedly, all other candidates had to be ranked behind Anya. If only a limited amount of Legendary Level could be consumed, Duncan would definitely not have many offspring. Maybe just three or four, enough to achieve the threshold of Father of Europe, King of Kings.

Anya was summoned with a perplexed expression.

Then, Duncan lifted her up by the waist and tossed her onto the bed. There was no need to consider any romanticism now; it was crucial to get down to business.

"Conceive offspring."

"Inject extraordinary bloodline—Dragon Bloodline!"

After a flurry of activity, Anya’s body was flushed all over, suddenly shuddering with convulsions. Instantly, she felt her magic power stirring, as if a magical vortex was draining all the magic from her whole body, concentrating it in her abdomen.

Anya was overwhelmed with indescribable excitement because she sensed the breath of life, magic that did not belong to her, gestating within her.

The magical vortex seemed like a water pump, continuously drawing from her Mana Pool.

This is the characteristic of an extraordinary bloodline.

Anya almost lost her original spell-casting ability, unable to regain her witch magic until the offspring was born.

Dimension Space.

A thought from Duncan, and the Red Heart K card appeared, transforming into a stream of light that merged into Anya’s abdomen.

If this is the way it must be done, then go all in.

Duncan spent a considerable amount of Legendary Level in one go, injecting the Dragon Bloodline, and also bestowed the concentrated Celestial Destiny to Anya’s offspring.

This is the future heir of the empire!

At this moment, Duncan had almost given everything he could. How long the vast empire he established could last would depend entirely on whether his descendants were up to the task.

At least the first few generations of emperors would be secure, with the second generation likely to be a wise monarch. But it’s uncertain if later descendants could inherit the Dragon Bloodline; perhaps after four to five generations, the bloodline would become diluted, and descendants would only have the dormant bloodline to rely on.

Duncan’s plan was for the empire and Britain to inherit the Dragon Bloodline, with Germania or Germany to inherit the Giant Bloodline, and Frank to inherit the Blood of the Holy Grail (Angel Bloodline).

If the church ever became dominant, it’s possible the Frank bloodline could replace Britain’s Dragon Bloodline.

But then again, it might not.

If the Norse Pantheon rose, Germany’s Giant Bloodline could also dominate for a period.

After comprehensive consideration, Duncan decided the core would certainly be the Dragon Bloodline, but the Giant Bloodline and Angel Bloodline could be set up in advance.

If something happened to the empire in the future, there would be more possibilities available.

For things two to three hundred years down the line, Duncan couldn’t predict, so he had to make several preparations. A typical dynasty change lasts only about two hundred years; after the decline of the Dragon Bloodline, perhaps the Giant Bloodline and Angel Bloodline could take over and continue the empire.

Duncan’s hand-built empire roughly covered the area of the Charlemagne Empire in later generations.

Currently, he could push the empire higher, making the empire’s continuity more robust.

Now it’s 453 AD; if no absurd emperor emerges, the empire should effortlessly last until well past the 700s AD. If he destroyed the Eastern Roman Empire, he could even seize part of the Byzantine Empire’s luck.

A thousand-year-old empire would be challenging.

If his descendants were competent, continuing for five to six hundred years, all the way to around 1000 AD, is still a considerable chance.

If among his descendants arose someone exceptional, able to extend the fortune of the Holy Roman Empire, the empire might indeed last a thousand years, although the royal bloodline would likely change branches.

Duncan personally leaned toward thinking that the Frank’s Angel Bloodline had a better chance at ascension. For now, it was destined to be the epoch of the Dragon Bloodline, and Britannia would also fully support it.

Duncan has bet on three factions.

At this moment, Anya had sacrificed so much and finally received the most generous gift!
