Ultimate Supreme Soldier King

Chapter 1656 1651: Angel Wings

Karloki's heart was overshadowed for the moment, while Su Chen had already 'teleported' through the stone gate into the Nopheler Family's secret vault.The sheer size of the Nopheler Family's secret vault was astonishing.

Even Su Chen couldn't help but be taken aback by it.

Gold and jewels? Diamonds and agates?

Here they were piled up like worthless dirt!

If the gold here were taken out, it could completely disrupt the current records of gold reserves.

And it would severely impact the current price of gold.

While it might not cause gold's value to plummet, it would certainly cause turmoil.

It's said that gold is hard currency, but in this warehouse, gold may well become a worthless item.

Pearls the size of a human head were beyond counting.

Just the accumulation from generations of the Nopheler Family was terrifying.

What level has the wealth of the Bloodline reached?

Su Chen couldn't help but be curious.

...

Though the wealth in this secret vault was immense.

Su Chen could only feast his eyes on it.

Outside this vault were twenty or more Bloodline Dukes or higher.

And there was also an almost clearly Legendary Level terrifying stone statue.

Could Su Che get the wealth out of here?

Clearly not possible.

Though this gold was precious.

It paled in comparison to the ancient weapons.

If Su Chen didn't want those two ancient weapons, but instead opted for 200 tons of gold.

It's likely both Harlow and Karloki would eagerly agree.

And even add 50 tons of gold as a bonus, totaling 250 tons of gold for Su Chen.

But evidently, Su Chen was not such a foolish person.

His eyes scanned over this sea of gold and silver, his form constantly traversing among them.

The gleaming wealth had left him numb.

A rough estimate revealed that the gold reserves here likely exceeded any major gold-reserve nation in the world.

But in this secret vault, the truly precious items weren't the golds.

Deep within the vault, Su Chen saw rows of wooden shelves.

The history of each shelf likely surpassed that of antique furniture made from wood worth millions.

Even with Su Chen's half-baked appraisal skills, he could tell they were extraordinary.

These wood materials were exceptional.

And judging by their age, none seemed less than five thousand years old!

The historical significance alone could overturn many known histories.

Yet, in this vault, the origin of these wooden shelves was of little importance.

On these shelves were silken boxes and oddly shaped weapons.

Some of the silken boxes were sealed.

But beneath them were brief descriptions.

Seven thousand-year-old ginseng?

Nine thousand-year-old Lingzhi?

Seeing the words under the silken box, Su Chen was a bit dizzy.

Is this a joke?

These items…

But perhaps it was possible.

Especially since the wooden shelves housing them had a history of five thousand years.

Items placed on the shelf couldn't be less valuable than the shelf itself, right?

Yet, Su Chen still felt it was somewhat fantastical.

Such ancient medicinal herbs, would they not have decayed in the soil?

Moreover, from the conversation between Harlow and the owl stone statue.

Harlow's last visit to the vault was said to be three hundred years ago.

This implies no one else had entered since?

In such a long time, wouldn't these items have deteriorated?

Curtaining curiosity, Su Chen reached for a silken box, carefully trying to open it.

Only to find the box could not be opened.

"You're only allowed to pick two ancient weapons from the vault, best not to touch items unrelated to weapons."

The owl stone statue had, unbeknownst to Su Chen, entered the vault, issuing a warning.

Reluctantly, Su Chen gazed at the box containing the seven-thousand-year-old ginseng, "Is the ginseng inside truly seven thousand years? Wouldn't it be expired?"

"Expired? Hehe, why don't you try?"

"I can?" Su Chen's eyes lit up.

"If you can withstand one strike from me without dying, I'll permit you to take what's inside the box."

Su Chen's face turned green.

If I were sure I could endure your blow, I'd take everything without needing your consent.

Reluctantly setting down the silken box.

Su Chen moved to the back row.

There were not many silken boxes on the front shelves.

Yet the labels evoked a sense of the Bloodline's dark humor in Su Chen.

For instance, on one box, he read: 'Angel Wings'

'Obtained from Prince Cain in an epic battle slaying a Divine Realm angel'

In simple terms, it was a spoil of war.

Only this spoil was special, it was the angel's wings.

Seeing this box, Su Chen was relentlessly tempted to open it.

If Bloodlines exist, does that mean legendary bird people... no, angels also exist?

Though not unfamiliar with angels.

Su Chen realized these angels were nothing like those from his prior perceptions.

In the Assassin Organization's top-ranked Heavenly Judgment, there was an 'angel' present.

And feather color distinguished their hierarchical status.

In worldly eyes, they might truly be angels.

Possessing wings, they could fly!

Noble and pure as real angels.

But Su Chen knew their reality was far less romantic.

Members of Heavenly Judgment had angel wings.

To become an angel, one needed remarkable beauty, and to be untainted.

Should they lose this untainted status, shaming an angel, they'd face consequences unbearable to ordinary angels.

They claimed to be angels, but Su Chen knew.

They were ordinary people, transformed to possess angel wings.

Their bodies had reached semi-mechanization.

Otherwise, how could they have such power and flight ability.

After encountering the Bloodline, Su Chen considered maybe true angels might exist!

But as for angel strength, he had no clear idea.

Prince Cain, termed a prince, likely a Blood Prince?

A Blood Duke already comparable to Human King Level.

Could Blood Princes already rival Legendary Level terrifying beings?

Meaning, a single angel's power might be akin to a Legendary Level force?

Su Chen's heart pounded.

Legendary Level angel wings, their value surely comparable to ancient weapons?

Su Chen instinctively reached for the silken box.

The owl stone statue's eerie voice echoed near, "If you're unafraid of death, you can try."

"I'll forgo the two ancient weapons, for this instead, can I?" Su Chen gritted.

"No." The owl stone statue firmly refused Su Chen.

He couldn't decide over the vault's items; he was merely a guardian.
