Wizard Immortal

Chapter 288 Conditions

In the silent hall, Adir stood there for a moment, hesitated, and finally took off the ring from his hand.

The ancient black ring, enveloped in a thin force field, flew directly toward Culardo, where he caught it.

Standing to the side, looking at the black ring in his hand and feeling the familiar aura attached to it, Kuraldo sighed softly, and then poured his magic power into the ring.

Instantly, a unique reaction occurred. On the black ring, fine magical runes flickered, and wisps of black energy emerged from them, eventually condensing into a snake woman pattern with a human face and a snake god.

"Who!!" A violent aura permeated the surroundings, and a violent force field rippled around, spreading outwards from the ring in Culardo's hand.

At this moment, the patterns of the sorcery arrays in the halls began to revive, forming a massive barrier around the entire hall, gently dissipating the power erupting from the ring.

Once the violent fluctuations subsided, a new scene appeared before us.

The black power coalesced into a black mirror, and on one side of the mirror, a snake woman appeared, with the lower body of a snake and the upper body of a beautiful woman.

"A strange yet familiar aura... Are you the new successor of the Snake Woman clan?"

Gently raising his head, Kuraldo looked at the figure appearing in the mirror before him. His expression remained calm as he observed Gloria's true form, nodding with some approval: "Not bad."

"Who are you?" A cold voice came from the mirror, like a hiss.

Gloria's face was cold, her lower body coiled around a hall, her entire body radiating a violent power that was enough to make anyone's heart tremble.

A faint black mist rose from her body, condensing behind her into the shape of snakes, which looked terrifying.

"Natasha, aren't you coming out?"

Looking at Gloria, Culardo did not answer her question, but instead said, "You have no need to hide anything from me."

There was a moment of silence, until a hoarse, unpleasant voice broke the silence.

"Curado, it's been a long time."

In the mirror, a figure dressed in black, completely concealed by a black cloak, emerged from beside Gloria. Judging from the voice, she appeared to be an old woman.

"Natasha, you're still alive after all."

Looking at the man in black reflected in the mirror, Kuraldo's expression became more serious, his attitude completely different from when he faced Gloria.

"You're no different."

Looking at Culardo, Natasha's voice was hoarse, seemingly somewhat surprised: "I never expected you to live this long."

"We were just lucky to find a source of the water of life."

Kuraldo responded, then looked at Gloria: "This child, the one you chose as your successor, isn't he? He's certainly not bad..."

Hearing Kuraldo's words, Gloria frowned subconsciously beside Natasha, but said nothing.

As the leader of the dark wizards, a dignified second-level wizard, few dared to treat her with such an attitude.

However, the old elven wizard in front of her was clearly much stronger than she had imagined, and he was also an acquaintance of Natasha, so she naturally couldn't act rashly.

"Enough with the small talk."

Natasha spoke again, her voice carrying through the hall via the black mirror: "What is it?"

"I want to ask you for someone."

Kuraldo pointed to Adir beside him: "I'm going to take him on as my student."

"impossible."

At this moment, upon hearing Culardo's words, Gloria couldn't help but speak up: "He is my subordinate."

Looking at Gloria and sensing her resolute attitude, Kuraldo was somewhat surprised, but still looked at Natasha: "This child is a pure-blooded royal, and she has drawn the Moon King's sword. She is most suitable to become my student and the next High Priest."

"Pureblood?" Natasha was startled by Culardo's words and looked at Adir beside Culardo.

Standing beside Kuraldo, Adir was dressed in a white robe, with long silver hair flowing down his back. He exuded a pure and sacred aura of bloodline, and his silver eyes shone brightly, which could not be concealed.

A gentle breeze blew in the distance, causing Adir's long hair to ripple. He stood still, exuding a calm and serene aura that was unforgettable.

Looking closely at Adir's appearance, Natasha's expression grew increasingly solemn: "He truly is a pure-blooded moon elf, a born elven king."

"Damn it, he was hanging around in front of me for so long, and I didn't even notice..."

She muttered to herself, her words carrying a certain meaning, as if she felt some regret.

"This child concealed it very well before. Not to mention you, the former Snake Queen, even I, the Elf High Priest, couldn't find out."

Looking at Natasha opposite him, Culardo said, "This child bears the snake woman mark you placed on her. I hope you can remove it."

Natasha remained silent as he spoke.

As a former Queen of the Serpents, she understood what a pure-blooded Moon Elf meant to Culardor, and therefore knew that the other party would never give up.

However, it's impossible to get him to obediently hand over Adir.

"Gloria and I have invested so much in him, even giving him advanced meditation techniques. Now you're just going to give it up like this?" Natasha said coldly, standing next to Gloria.

Kuraldo didn't say much, but simply raised his hand and held up three fingers: "Three times."

"I can promise you that I will help you three times during the next period of time."

On the other side, listening to his words, Natasha hesitated for a moment.

Strictly speaking, Cullardo's terms were very sincere.

As an old friend, Natasha knew all too well about Culardo's strength.

That's a level of strength that few can rival, even among third-level wizards. Even Natasha in her prime had to take it seriously, let alone now.

A calamity is imminent, and war will rage everywhere. In this situation, the three interventions of a level three wizard are undoubtedly very valuable.

At the very least, if the opponent were a level two wizard, Kural could probably kill them with a single spell. And level two wizards are already among the top tier in the entire Maison region.

Thinking about Adir's role, she shook her head: "Besides this, I also need him to help me concoct potions."

"Medicine?"

Kuraldo was taken aback for a moment, then said, "The Elven Royal Court stores many precious materials and potions. Whatever you want, just take it from me. There's no need to send this child."

"Deep Blue Breath Potion"

On the other side, seemingly anticipating Kuraldo's words, Natasha uttered them expressionlessly and in a cold tone.

Kuraldo immediately stopped speaking, but looked at Adir with a strange expression.

"There's no doubt he can concoct the Deep Blue Breath Potion."

Looking at Kuraldo's appearance, Natasha said indifferently, "I must say, the talents of ancient creatures are indeed powerful. In addition to his high aptitude as a wizard, this child's talent for potion making is also the best I have ever seen."

"Three times I'll help, and this child will help me concoct potions. That's all I ask for."

She looked at Cullardo, waiting for his response.

"make a deal."

Kuraldo took a deep breath, glanced at Adir beside him, and finally nodded.

With the general conditions met, the atmosphere instantly improved considerably.

After clarifying the specific conditions, Kuraldo waved his hand and withdrew his magic.

The black mirror on the spot vanished instantly, and the wisps of black mist dissipated, transforming back into a black ring.

A burning sensation instantly emanated from Adir's body.

He subconsciously raised his arm and saw a scene unfold before him.

On his arm, dense black patterns instantly appeared, eventually transforming into a black snake woman's mark, with scales so clear they seemed real.

The black snake woman mark was shining brightly, and a searing sensation swept over Adir's entire body before quickly fading away.

When Adir came to his senses, the snake woman mark on his arm had disappeared, and his arm looked completely white, without any abnormality.

"This is the mark of the snake woman; it serves as both protection and a form of surveillance and restraint."

Ahead, holding the black ring in his hand, Culard explained, "This mark is the snake woman's bloodline ability. It usually lies dormant on your body and is difficult to detect. Moreover, it doesn't usually do you any harm."

"When you are in danger, the power carried by this snake woman's mark can help you avoid fatal damage."

"I understand." Adir nodded, his expression unchanged.

"Come with me."

Looking at Adir, Kurardo spoke, then walked straight forward.

Behind him, watching Kuraldo's retreating figure, Adir didn't hesitate and followed Kuraldo directly forward.

They walked through several passageways, eventually arriving at an altar after wandering around for a while.

The altar looked very tall, about seven or eight meters high, and its overall style was silver.

In front of the altar, there is a statue holding a sword, standing silently.
