Wizard: Become stronger by drawing cards from the potions variety show

Chapter 550 Behind the Wall of Imperial Decree

Li Daoxian said: "I named it the pure sample."

Catherine's father looked at the fruit in his hand and said, "Pure sample? This is not pure."

"But it's complicated enough." Li Daoxian smiled and said, "Complexity is human nature... It's also what you need, isn't it?"

"Yes, it's so complicated... It's hard to imagine. Turning emotions, perceptions, and memories into curses to awaken resonance... No wonder Catherine is full of praise for your talent."

Catherine's father looked at the wizard in front of him seriously and said solemnly, "Let me introduce myself to you formally. I am Roger, Catherine's father, a professor of the School of Purism, the chairman of the Beast Branch, and the incoming grand elder of the School of Purism."

Li Daoxian also nodded, but simply said his name: "Li Daoxian."

Roger didn't care. He had already read Li Daoxian's information before he came. He was a genius potion master. It was because of this little guy in front of him that his daughter failed to win the first place in the variety show "Potion Master i" and missed an important opportunity.

If there is anything that needs attention, it is that he has a close relationship with Gordon. Of course, there is one more person now, a domain wizard, and a domain wizard of considerable strength.

This is the advantage of the classical alchemy school. As long as one has a talent for potions and alchemy, it is easy to find rules that suit oneself from the countless experiences accumulated by predecessors. Even if there are some deviations from the original plan, they can be quickly adjusted through alchemical techniques.

Now he couldn't do anything to the little guy in front of him, and he had the potion he needed, so making friends with him was the best way.

These thoughts flashed through Roger's mind.

He smiled peacefully and said, "It's great that Catherine has a friend like you. I can leave her alone, but I need five pure samples every week."

Li Daoxian was a little surprised: "A pure sample can only sustain a person for a week."

Roger waved his hand nonchalantly: "I know, but this is enough. After all, those elders have enough means to maintain their condition. Before the potion, they were able to function normally. It's just that their condition was slightly worse and they needed to sleep more."

"And..." He looked at Li Daoxian, and then at the pure sample in his hand. "If I'm not mistaken, this thing should also be related to Catherine... Did it use Catherine's blood?"

Li Daoxian did not deny it: "Yes, there are many parts of the purist school that I cannot understand for the time being. When facing such a black box, the best way is to treat it as a whole and treat it as part of the material."

"Although some of Catherine's blood was used, it was also a necessary condition for cultivating the curse seed. As long as the curse seed continues to mature, the need for Catherine's intervention will become less and less, and in the end it should not be needed."

The smile on Roger's face grew brighter.

He looked at Catherine, who was watching him carefully, with gentle eyes, and said, "Seeing that you are doing well, I feel relieved."

He then turned to Li Daoxian and said, "You should already know that the Purist School basically intermarries and adheres to monogamy. They rarely accept outsiders. Even if they do, they will join the school after marriage."

"Your situation is very special. I can see that you will not give up everything outside and join the school of purism."

Li Daoxian nodded: "Indeed."

The so-called joining the Purist School through marriage is actually, in layman's terms, marrying into the family. One needs to give up everything outside and start anew in the Purist School. In the process, one must also go through a long purification ceremony to ensure that the person marrying into the family will not have any hidden dangers.

In fact, there is some brainwashing involved.

Roger understood and laughed: "Sure enough, I knew you wouldn't join."

"It's okay if you don't want to marry into the family, as long as you are strong enough. However, looking at your current potential, it will probably be easily satisfied."

"As Catherine's father, I can agree to your marriage. However, I must remind you that if you do anything that may cause trouble to Catherine in the future, everyone in the school will regard you as impurity and get rid of you at all costs."

Li Daoxian was keenly aware of the last word.

you.

In other words, if I betray Catherine in the end, not only myself, but also Catherine will be regarded as impure...

Roger's words not only explained their customs and habits to Li Daoxian, but also reminded Catherine whether she wanted to take such a risk.

Catherine, who had been silent since her father appeared, suddenly spoke up: "I believe in him, father. From the beginning, I chose him."

"No one else has ever made me feel this excited except him."

Roger sighed and said slowly: "He is stronger than you, so you have an aura, but in fact, do you really understand him?"

Seeing Catherine's determined eyes, Roger couldn't say anything more and could only sigh again: "Since you have made up your mind, I won't say anything more. I will take care of the matter at the school."

Li Daoxian could feel that Roger's worries and sighs at this moment were real, and his love for Catherine was also real.

After all, among the chips reflected in the Place of Value, the love and guilt for his daughter were marked with a spiritual unit of contract rules worth 8700 million and named "father-daughter bond."

In the observation of the place of value, reaching the level of tens of millions means that this aspect directly affects the key emotions and cognition of the people in front of you.

In other words, if one wants to use soul magic to distort or confuse memory, the more valuable the spiritual essence is, the more difficult it will be to process, and even if it is processed, it will be easily recalled.

From this point, it can also be seen that Roger is a person who cares about his relatives and cares about his daughter extremely.

But none of this matters.

Li Daoxian said softly: "Don't worry, my rule is transaction, and the most important thing is the contract. The same applies to marriage contracts. I chose Catherine, and I will definitely not let her down."

Catherine's hand was held by Li Daoxian, and she felt an endless stream of warmth being transmitted to her whole body through the part where their palms were in contact.

Catherine gave up thinking.

This warm feeling reminded her of her childhood, when she was lying on the grass in the garden one afternoon, carefree and basking in the sun. At that time, she had not yet tried to condense, and she had not yet been trained as an heir...

At that time, she did not have the complicated feelings towards her father and mother like she does now, it was just pure love and attachment.

Roger stood up, pulled off the brooch on his chest and threw it on the table, saying, "If you are ready, you can use this brooch and pass it to me through the ceremony."

After he finished speaking, all the strange phenomena around him receded like the tide, and the unfolding field returned to its normal form.

"Okay." Li Daoxian had no objection.

The deal in front of him was already the better of what he had expected. Catherine's father was not a man who liked to bargain, so Li Daoxian did not delay or beat around the bush and directly revealed his chips.

The deal was struck immediately. The door to the room closed.

Catherine looked at Li Daoxian and smiled sweetly.

Li Daoxian turned his head and looked at Catherine who had her arms open in front of him. He also reached out and held her in his arms.

"Your father cares about you very much and loves you even more than his own life. This is one of the reasons why he can maintain his humanity, so he is in better condition than others."

Catherine was a little surprised.

Before she revealed her talent, her father really liked her. At that time, she would always stick around her father and ask him to play with her. But after she completed the concentration, her father became very strict with her. He controlled her in every aspect and forced her to follow the set way.

This situation has continued to this day.

Even not long ago, his father was planning to sacrifice himself as a material for the purification ritual. If he really loved him, as Li Daoxian said, how could he sacrifice himself?
After hearing what Catherine said, Li Daoxian said softly, "It's true that he loves you, but at the same time, his extreme desire for power is the main reason why he can maintain his humanity."

In the price tag reflecting the value, Roger's [Desire for Power] is priced at 1.3 million spiritual essences, far exceeding that of ordinary people.

This shows that Roger has devoted almost all his will to his own rights. His ideas are extremely pure. The price tag of 100 million is a value that cannot be moved at present and exceeds the scope of influence.

"He likes you, but if sacrificing you can contribute to his consolidation of power, then he will choose to do so without hesitation."

Li Daoxian's words made Catherine's heart tremble.

Li Daoxian patted her shoulder and comforted her, saying: "However, this is also a good thing. As long as there is a choice and the goal can be achieved, he will not sacrifice you, but will protect you instead."

After listening to Li Daoxian's words, Catherine felt that her father's contradictory behavior had finally been answered.

Li Daoxian gently stroked the hair of the person in his arms and said with a smile: "It's good now. Your father has agreed to us. From now on, we will settle down in the Snake District. Endless Secret Treasure Academy is our home."

Catherine smiled sweetly and nodded heavily: "Yes."

Her current mood was like dark clouds that had been accumulating for a long time, which were suddenly pushed away to reveal a clear sky.

She didn't have to go back to the school, nor did she have to hide everywhere. When she was in the Endless Secret Academy, she liked this kind of stable and peaceful life. She often worried that one day, this peaceful life would be disrupted because of the discovery of the people from the School of Purism.

Now there is finally no need to worry.

Li Daoxian made a gesture of invitation, and Catherine held Li Daoxian's hand tightly. The two walked into the room together, smiled at each other, and stepped into the portal.

……

Emerald green flames rose.

Roger's figure appeared, and he walked out with big strides. The two members of the school beside the portal saluted hurriedly: "Member."

Roger nodded slightly, gave a gentle smile, and disappeared at the end of the corridor without stopping.

The wizard on duty next to the portal sighed softly: "Senator Roger is always so kind, unlike others who have a cold face..."

Another wizard said coldly: "Be careful with your words."

Roger did not hear the conversation after he left. His more important task now was to rush to the resting place of the elders.

The Resting Place is a forbidden place of the school and also the place where the elders rest. Although they cannot leave the Resting Place, someone will regularly relay their experiences outside to them so that they can understand what is happening in the outside world.

When necessary, these elders will use contracts or secret techniques to check the situation outside.

The elders would not issue orders easily, but would leave it to the rulers of the school to manage.

But once the elders give an order, the rulers must execute it.

Within the school, the elders have supreme status.

Roger is the wizard who reports the outside situation to the elders at this time. He is also recognized within the school as a candidate who may be promoted to elder.

So when Roger entered the resting place, the wizards who were defending outside did not stop him at all.

Roger passed through layers of guards and magic circles, and then walked into the resting place.

Arrived in front of the wall of decree.

Normally, he should stop here to report. After the report is completed, if there is a new order, he will appear on the wall of orders. If there is no order, he only needs to leave on his own after a quarter of an hour.

However, Roger did not stop, but walked straight into the wall of decrees.

The wall swayed like water waves, wrapping Roger completely in it.

Inside the wall of decree, there is an independent space. The eight mansions around it are quiet at this moment, without any sound.

The gentle smile on Roger's face disappeared the moment he entered here, and he snapped his fingers.

Eight prison cells suddenly appeared on the lawn in the center of the mansion.

In every cell, there is a haggard old man.

The limbs, neck, waist, and ribs were bound by dark gold chains. Everyone was chained to the ground and unable to stand up. There was only a book-sized hole in the prison cell near the ground, just enough for people to stretch out their hands.

Roger said to the others, "I got some good news this time. Your problem has been solved."

As he spoke, Roger took out a few fruits from his pocket and threw them on the ground.

The old people in the cell, who were originally dull and inert like dead objects, began to struggle frantically the moment they saw the fruit. They tried their best to adjust their posture through the small window and stretched out their hands to grab the small fruit.

Roger raised his head, lowered his eyes, and said softly: "That's it, fight like wild dogs. Let you suffer, be lowly, and wriggle like maggots and worms, so that I can feel better."
