The Dark King - Chapter 252

Chapter 252

The news of Dudian making the plea for his defense in the mission hall had spread to the ears of everyone in the Temple and consortia . The success or failure of the task was a trivial matter . Normally an intermediate architect would not cause such an attention . But Dudian was the person who had acquired 'epoch' medal . Moreover he was the figure most closely watched by the masters of the Temple .

"Is he the architect who got 'epoch' medal?"

"I heard that his first task was to improve 'snake crossbow' . He took only half a day to complete the task . The speed is fast but didn't pass . Oh! He should see what a real architects are . He should know that he can't create miracles with a bit of knowledge and luck . "

"He was just a tailor's son . It was the influence of his father that he was able to create such a new textile machine . Its been only month or so that he has joined the Temple . However 'snake crossbow' is a different object . This is a military product and wasn't meant for civilians . He wouldn't understand its structure in such a short time . Although it is under the wood element faction but it doesn't mean that it is an easy job to do! Moreover, Tiffany, the examiner for 'snake crossbow' is known as a cold person . She respects the object created by her own teacher a lot . It wouldn't be easy to change her mind unless the improvement would be very extraordinary . "

"Yes . The newcomer has bad luck!"

"Don't say so . It shows that in Tiffany's eyes the man who won the 'epoch' medal is not worthy . It is kind of a good thing as she suppresses the arrogancy of the newcomer . He has to understand that making progress isn't easy!"

"Haha, I still don't understand why they had given the 'epoch' medal to a tailor's son! Talk about it!"

Some senior architects talked about the newcomer in their castles at Church Mountain . They were extremely concerned as the 'epoch' medal was one of the most heavyweight medals given by the 'Temple of Elements' . It was an achievement which could not be reached by most in their lifetime .

It represented a change of the era for architects everytime the medal was given .

Mount Er . Burong family .

"Defending his case?" Rudolph swept over the content of the letter which was handed to him by the butler . He snered . : "The higher he gets, harder the fall will be . Only one day to improve such an item? He doesn't know how to stay low-key . He didn't even take the advantage of the rest of the time to complete the task but has asked for a plea! Most of the masters will be watching the show too!"

Rudolph knew that Dudian's father was a tailor so he should come in contact with the textile machines a lot . But the snake crossbow was not a civilian product . Although he knew that Dudian was a hunter but that was just a career . If all the hunters knew how to invent then all the hunters would be master level architects for military products .

Mel family .

In the garden of the castle a middle-aged man was leaning back of the chair . He was sitting lazily and enjoying the tea . His belly was rounded full as he had eaten the lunch . The gestures made by the man showed that he was part of a contemporary aristocratic family . His name was Mark . Mark Mel once led the consortium like a tiger . He had created a business miracle when he was young . As a result the weak family had risen up under his leadership . Mark was considered as a role model and worship target by many wealthy businessmen because of his feats . A 16 year old slender girl with beautiful cheeks and small mouth was standing opposite to him . She was Mark's only daughter . Sarah Mel .

Sarah was much more beautiful, lively and elegant in comparison to few years ago . She gentle taste the tea in the cup and put back the cup on the table .

"Father I know Jenny's temper . She has brains but not a social person . I just secretly send the news of that person to her so that she will never forget him . In this way she will never promise her father to marry to another family . " Sarah's lips curved up into a smile . :" Her mother died after she was born . Afterwards the relationship between her father and Jenny had become unstable and there is a barrier between them . Instead of cherishing her the relationship between the father and daughter had ruptured . "

Mark listened to his daughter's words . There was a smile on his face . : "So her relations with her father aren't good . "

Sarah sighed . : "In fact Jenny is good playmate . "

"If you don't have the heart then I can handle this matter . " Mark smiled .

Sarah looked at him and shook her head . At this time footsteps echoed and the butler quickly come over to them . He saluted and handed over an envelope . : " Master, its from 'Temple of elements'"

Mark took the envelope and tore the cover . He grabbed the letter and pulled it out . He glanced at the letter . "The little guy . He has failed the task . But because of his age can't have the sufficient strength to bear the shame . You always have to pay a price when you get things that don't belong to you . "

Sarah's voiced resounded: "Is that little poet?"

"Well, his poem is good . " Mark smiled . : "At least it is in a higher level than his architect knowledge . " After reading the letter he gave it to Sarah . He never prohibited her daughter from involving in family business . On the contrary, he will always took the initiative and make Sarah deal with small things . He was nurturing her from the early age to be able to deal with this aspect of life .

Sarah took a glance and shook her head . : "So impetous . I wouldn't expect from someone who had written such a beautiful poem . Well, his poetry is full of arrogance and stubborness . . . "

"He is not mature enough . . . He shouldn't be humiliated with such a result . . . " Mark sighed deeply and said to his daughter .
