Hogwarts wizards who signed in to Middle-earth.

Chapter 301 Bloodline Fusion Potion

Edward was shocked upon hearing this, somewhat incredulous.

"Sir, do you mean I can become a wizard and use magic like you?"

As the castle's butler, Edward had seen all sorts of amazing magic: moving portraits, moving staircases, salamanders in the fireplace flames, patrolling armor, and countless other wonders.

Edward felt honored to be the lord's steward, but after witnessing so many amazing sights, he couldn't help but feel a longing in his heart.

He was like a mortal who had stumbled into a fairyland. After seeing the sights of the fairyland, how could he be content to remain a mortal?
However, he also knew that only a few people possess magical talent, which is determined by innate conditions and cannot be mastered later in life.

He himself was just an ordinary mortal with no magical talent whatsoever.

Therefore, he kept his desires buried deep in his heart and worked diligently to manage the castle for the lord.

But now the lord has suddenly asked me if I want to become a wizard.

Edward felt as if he were dreaming, and then he became wildly excited.

Seeing Edward's excited and trembling appearance, Dui smiled and nodded.

"I have a spell here that can allow you to fuse with the bloodline of magical creatures, thereby gaining the ability to cast spells. However, the process will be somewhat risky. I wonder if you are willing to try?"

"Yes! I do!" Edward said excitedly without hesitation.

He was willing to do anything, even if there was only a sliver of hope, to become a wizard and cast those magical spells like the lord!

“Alright, since that’s the case, then you should prepare. We’ll conduct a bloodline fusion experiment for you in a few days.” Seeing Edward’s determined expression, Dui also said.

A week later, Dui had gathered all the materials and began preparing for the bloodline fusion magic.

Bloodline fusion is an extremely dangerous form of magic. Even brothers have different blood types, making it impossible for their blood to mix. This is even more so when it comes to fusing the bloodlines of two different races, humans and magical creatures. It would cause serious consequences such as bloodline conflict and genetic collapse.

“Edward, you need to think this through. Once the bloodline fusion begins, it cannot be stopped halfway through, and the process will be extremely painful, no less than having your tendons and marrow pulled out, and having all the blood in your body replaced. Are you sure you can endure it?”

Before the experiment began, Dui, with a serious expression, asked Edward again to confirm.

But Edward did not hesitate at all. He nodded firmly and said, "My lord, I am ready. I am willing to risk my life to become a wizard!"

Sensing his unwavering determination, Dui's eyes flashed with admiration, and his serious expression softened slightly.

He patted Edward on the shoulder. "Since you've made up your mind, I won't say anything more. I hope you succeed. When the time comes, I'll personally make you a wand that's yours!"

"Thank you, sir! I will definitely succeed!" Hearing Dui's words, Edward couldn't wait any longer, imagining himself becoming a wizard and waving his wand.

Dui led Edward to the potions room.

In the center of the spacious room stood a huge cauldron, large enough to fit an adult inside.

Beneath the large cauldron, flames roared.

Edward waited by the side.
Dui looked at the liquid in the large pot, which had become murky and grayish.

The potion in this large cauldron has been simmering for three days.
Mandrake juice, dried nettles, moonstone, rotten blood grass, fire ash snake eggs, and other ingredients were added to the pot, and the potion-making process was nearing its end.

Seeing the color of the potion in the pot, Dui took out a silver Holy White Tree fruit and put it into the pot.

Then use a large wooden stick to stir the pot thirteen times clockwise and seven times counterclockwise.

The fruit of the Holy White Tree melted like silver, completely dissolving into the liquid and reacting with the liquid in the pot.

The liquid slowly turned as clear as water. Seeing this, Dui immediately extinguished the fire under the large pot, allowing the water-like liquid in the pot to cool down.

Once the liquid had completely cooled, Dui took out a large bucket of dragon blood from the refrigerated room next door.

Pour it all into the large pot, filling it to about two-thirds full.

The clear, watery potion was stained red by a bucket of dragon's blood and began to boil.

Dui continued stirring with the stirring stick, and the potion in the pot boiled more and more, emitting high temperatures, like scalding red lava.

Edward, standing to the side, was dumbfounded by the bizarre and incredible scene.

But Dui stopped, turned to Edward and said, "Alright, Edward, now take off your clothes and get into the pot."

"Into the pot?" Edward looked at the scalding hot potion, like lava, and couldn't help but swallow hard.

If you jump in like that, you'll probably be cooked alive!

But seeing Dui's serious expression, he mustered his courage, put on a look of fearlessness, disregarded his shame, quickly took off his clothes, and jumped into the pot without hesitation.

With a splash, most of Edward's body was submerged in the liquid in the pot, with only his head sticking out.

The next second, Edward showed a pained expression and couldn't help but scream.

At that moment, Edward felt as if he had entered molten lava, his body enduring intense pain from the scalding potion, feeling as if his entire body was about to melt.

Moreover, the blood-red potion, as hot as molten lava, burrowed into the body through the pores like millions of tiny insects, entering the blood vessels.

For a moment, it felt as if scalding hot magma was flowing through my blood vessels, as if it were cooking my body from the inside out.

As the potion entered his body, countless drops of black blood seeped out from his pores, turning Edward into a blood-soaked figure.

Seeing Edward screaming in agony, Dui remained calm, seemingly unaffected.

Even when Edward was in so much pain that he instinctively tried to struggle free, they simply waved their hands and pushed him back into the pot, preventing him from getting out.

Now that the bloodline fusion has reached a critical stage, if it is interrupted, the only result will be failure.

The only consequence of failure is death.

Edward is doing a good job at the castle, and Duy doesn't want to lose his butler.

Therefore, Edward can only be encouraged to persevere, as the benefits will be enormous if he succeeds.

As time passed, Edward grew too weak and exhausted to speak. The scalding potion in the pot slowly cooled and its color gradually faded.

Edward, on the other hand, was covered by the black blood expelled from his body, which grew thicker and thicker until it finally formed a blood cocoon.

Finally, when the entire potion room had fallen silent, a sudden noise came from the cauldron.

Two hands tore open the blood cocoon and emerged, followed by the naked Edward, like a newly hatched dragon, tilting his head back and breathing in the fresh air.

At this moment, he seemed to have emerged from his cocoon and undergone a tremendous transformation.

Its body became more robust, and its eyes turned golden, sharp as a dragon's eyes.

"My lord, did I succeed?" Edward asked, his voice filled with both anticipation and trepidation.
