Wizard Immortal

Chapter 173 Intelligence on the Maison Area

In the small but tidy room, two wizards were talking.

During the conversation, Adir also learned about the other party's background.

As Adir had predicted, this was a bloodline family with a long history, so long that it could be traced back to ancient times.

After such a long period of time, this family has long since declined. Not only has the bloodline within the family slowly disappeared, but now only two people remain.

However, judging from Terence's current strength as a formal wizard, this family must have been glorious in the past, and the bloodline flowing through the family must be extremely extraordinary.

The results described by the other party confirmed Adir's guess.

"The bloodline of the ancient Mora dragon?"

Sitting on the edge of the bed, listening to Terence's story, Adir was taken aback.

The so-called Mora Earth Dragon refers to a powerful creature native to the ancient wizarding world. When fully grown, it can grow to hundreds of meters in length and is a formidable life form comparable to a level three wizard.

This ancient creature is known for its powerful vitality and lifespan. Wizards who possess this bloodline will also receive a significant boost to their vitality and lifespan, making them far stronger than wizards of the same level.

"It's just a faint bloodline."

Standing opposite Adir, Terence saw the surprised expression on Adir's face and gave a bitter smile: "No matter how powerful and prosperous a bloodline is, once it declines, this is what it becomes."

"If it weren't for the fact that the bloodline of the Mora Dragon greatly enhances lifespan, my old bones would have a hard time even advancing to a formal wizard."

Bloodlines can be diluted over time. Perhaps their family was once prosperous in ancient times, but after thousands of years and generations of reproduction, their bloodline will eventually decline and never regain its former concentration.

This is also the ultimate fate of most bloodline families.

However, compared to ordinary people, they are already very lucky.

Having ancient bloodlines, they have a significant advantage in every aspect, and it can be said that they won at the starting line from the very beginning.

Some wizards with powerful bloodlines are said to have no obstacles between becoming an apprentice and a full-fledged wizard. They only need to wait for their bodies to grow and for their bloodlines to drive their life level to improve, which will lead to the advancement of their wizard level without any hindrance.

Just like Terence before us, even though the ancient bloodline in his body was extremely thin, it still gave him a stronger vitality and lifespan than other wizards.

This help, though small, is extremely important during the apprenticeship period. At the very least, a longer lifespan not only means living longer but also increasing the chances of becoming a full-fledged wizard.

"Unfortunately, wizards with ancient bloodlines are becoming increasingly rare these days."

As Adir looked at Terence before him, this thought flashed through his mind.

Modern bloodline wizards are basically descendants of ancient wizards.

According to the books, in ancient times, the wizarding world was not as peaceful as it is now. It was full of powerful and terrifying ancient creatures. Some powerful bloodline creatures could even traverse the entire world, which was terrifying to the extreme.

After the ancient wizards rose to power and unified the world, these ancient beings were completely wiped out. Powerful bloodlines were regarded as precious resources and were transplanted into the bodies of the ancient wizards as a means of strengthening themselves. Only some weak creatures remained, because they were too weak compared to the ancient wizards, and thus they were fortunate enough to survive.

By now, powerful ancient creatures have basically disappeared. Even if some survive, they are scattered in vast, unknown regions, far beyond the reach of ordinary wizards.

Wizards like Terence, who inherit ancient bloodlines, are becoming increasingly rare due to the thinning of the bloodline over generations.

After a while, having learned the basic situation, Adir and Terence went to another room. There, a little boy was lying quietly on the bed, seemingly fast asleep.

"Has he always been this sleepy?"

Adir frowned slightly as he looked at the little boy on the headboard.

Listening to Adir's words, Terence nodded: "It's always been like this. I didn't pay attention when he was a child, but I realized something was wrong later."

"Mora Earth Dragon is also known for its drowsiness, and its current appearance is probably due to the influence of its bloodline."

Looking quietly at the little boy on the bed, Adir spoke.

Under Terence's watchful gaze, he stepped forward, his arm pausing briefly over the boy's heart.

A large amount of data was constantly pouring into his mind, and after being processed by the chip, it was transmitted to Adir's mind.

"The heartbeat is very weak, and many of the child's organs are damaged. More seriously, it seems that the child's body has been affected by something, and his vitality is slowly weakening..."

Looking at the little boy's appearance and sensing his situation, even Adir found it troublesome.

"If nothing unexpected happens, this child will probably only live for three more years at most."

Standing still, he turned to Terence and said.

Terence didn't react much to this bad news; he simply nodded calmly, seemingly well aware of the situation.

"Is there a way to solve this?"

He looked at Adir with a hint of expectation in his eyes.

Meeting his expectant gaze, Adir shook his head.

"I'm sorry, this situation is somewhat complicated, and since bloodline disease is rooted in the blood, there's no way to improve it in a short period of time."

Under the expectant gaze of the other party, Adir spoke.

Upon hearing this, Terence's eyes flashed with disappointment, but he didn't seem to feel much.

Over the past decade, he has sought out too many people and been disappointed too many times; he has long been accustomed to the scene before him.

"However, if it's just about suppressing these symptoms, I still have a way."

Adir smiled and said, seeing the other person's surprised look.

"Really?" Terence was somewhat surprised and delighted, but he stared blankly at Adir and asked, "Are you sure?"

"Of course." Adir nodded without hesitation when asked this question.

"it is good."

Terence nodded, a smile appearing on his face: "Perfect timing. I happen to have some advanced knowledge about bloodlines, which Lord Adir would likely find interesting."

"certainly."

Seeing how cooperative the other party was, Adir smiled.

After chatting for a while, Adir turned and walked away.

"I never expected to have such an unexpected gain."

As he walked along the road, Adir muttered to himself.

At this moment, he had gained some knowledge in his mind. Although it was basic, it still surprised Adir.

These were all advance payments from the other party, who seemed afraid that Adil would be unwilling to help, so they specially brought out some of the precious knowledge passed down in their family.

From the other party, Adir also obtained some information about the surrounding area, as well as some intelligence about traveling to the Maison region.

According to them, the distance from the northern plains to the Maison area is extremely long, and can only be traversed by airship.

However, the other party is also unclear about the specifics, and to find out the exact information, they need to go into the inner city to investigate.

"Perfect timing, I also need a more advanced laboratory to help process some things."

Standing there, looking out the window, Adir murmured to himself.

At this moment, the rain outside the window was still falling, but it was gradually subsiding and it didn't seem to be going to last much longer.

After standing silently on the balcony for a while, Adir returned to his room to rest.

the next day.

After the rain stopped outside, Adir changed into a black robe and headed towards the inner city.

Beside him stood Terence, dressed in a gray robe.

He came mainly to act as a guide, and also to buy some things for himself.

Having exchanged ideas the previous night, he was equally impressed by Adir's knowledge and expertise in bloodline matters. Upon hearing that Adir was going to the inner city to gather information, he immediately brought his grandson out.

As I walked around, the number of people around me became increasingly sparse.

Soon, they arrived at a deserted quarantine area, where two third-class apprentices appeared and were guarding a city gate.

Unlike apprentices elsewhere, these two third-class apprentices, though quite ordinary in appearance, exuded a unique spiritual aura that gave off a sense of oppression.

However, upon sensing the faint aura emanating from Adir and his companion, the two third-class apprentices' expressions changed, replaced by a respectful demeanor: "Welcome, sirs!"

After a casual glance, Adir and his companions did not linger and quickly moved on.

"These are wizards specially selected by the local wizarding organization. They are all blood wizards who frequently fight against alien creatures and are very powerful in combat."

Looking at Adir, Terence explained to him, "Can you feel the mental pressure on those apprentices? That's a symptom that appears when someone is cursed by too many alien races; it represents their battle achievements."

Are there many alien races around here?

Adir asked.

"A lot, a great many."

Terence said, "These alien races are everywhere on the border of the northern plains. Wizards who operate around here basically have to deal with these alien races. Countless people die every year. They are very troublesome."

"Some of these alien races are remnants of ancient wizards, while others are native to the wizarding world. There are even bloodline beings among them, scattered throughout the northern part of the continent, completely blocking the roads."

Looking at Adir, Terence shook his head and said, "If it weren't for these alien races, we wouldn't need to take an airship to get to the Maison region; we could just travel by land."

"Are these alien races very strong?"

"Walking on the right path," Adir asked with great interest.

"Most of them aren't strong; it's just that there are too many of them, plus there are some alien wizards, which is why we haven't been able to solve the problem."

"Looking at Adir," Terence replied.
