Wizard Immortal

Chapter 419 Black Eye Stone

"High Priest".

Standing beneath the attic, watching Lucius and his group approach from afar, Andrew stepped forward with a smile on his face: "You've finally arrived."

"Hmm." Looking at Andrew in front of him, Lucius spoke calmly, seemingly somewhat surprised: "You're injured?"

"Yes." Andrew nodded, not hiding anything, and said frankly, "It was caused five years ago, and it's almost fully healed now."

"You're talking about the bloodline trial held by the Silver Mist Elves five years ago, right?" Lu Xiu glanced at him. "Speaking of which, I'd like to ask you more about it."

"With your bloodline and talent, there's no reason you shouldn't have gained the Moon King's Sword's recognition. Why did you not only fail to take the Moon King's Sword away, but also suffer such severe injuries?"

"This matter is rather complicated." Hearing about this old story, even though several years have passed, Andrew's face twitched and he appeared extremely unsettled just thinking about that scene: "Something unexpected happened back then. High Priest, you have just arrived and are not yet clear about the situation here."

"Five years ago, during the bloodline trial of the Silver Mist Elves, a true pure-blooded Moon Elf inexplicably appeared." Andrew's expression was somewhat grim as he spoke, but he still recounted the events of that time in their entirety.

He still vividly remembers what happened back then.

As a dark elf prince, the reason he took such a great risk to infiltrate the surface world before the separation between the two realms disappeared was to participate in that bloodline trial, hoping to gain the recognition of the Moon King's Sword in that bloodline trial, thus paving the way for subsequent offensives.

As for the assassination of King Cana, it was merely a side effect.

Everything was arranged perfectly. As a dark elf prince, Andrew's bloodline and talent were among the best in the entire dark elf world. Under normal circumstances, as long as he did not reveal his identity beforehand, it was almost certain that he would gain the recognition of the Moon King's Sword after entering the bloodline trial.

Initially, the plan did indeed proceed smoothly. The Silver Mist Royal Court did not discover Andrew's dark elf identity, and he successfully deceived many elven wizards, including King Cast, and successfully entered the path of bloodline trials.

At this point, he was only one step away from ultimate success. But at this crucial juncture, a true pure-blooded moon elf appeared and gained the Moon King's Sword's recognition before him, not only ruining all his plans but also seriously injuring him.

Having gone through all that, he will definitely remember this incident vividly, and he will probably never forget it in his lifetime.

"You mean, a true pureblood moon elf has appeared?" Listening to Andrew's story, Lucius frowned, his first thought being that Andrew was lying.

But then he personally rejected the idea.

Andrew had absolutely no reason to lie about something so important.

"A pure-blooded moon elf." Although he believed Andrew wasn't lying, Lucius was still extremely shocked by the news: "They haven't appeared for tens of thousands of years, and yet they've suddenly reappeared at this time..."

"However, if he really is a pure-blooded moon elf, then Andrew, your loss is not unjust." Reluctantly accepting this news, Lucius looked at Andrew in front of him and shook his head: "A pure-blooded moon elf, as long as he doesn't die prematurely, will inevitably become another moon elf king in the future. Don't even mention you, Andrew, even if your father came, you wouldn't be able to beat him in terms of bloodline."

After saying this, he looked at Andrew and asked a few more questions.

Upon arriving at the location where the newly appeared moon elf had already been recruited by the Elf Royal Court, he frowned: "This is rather troublesome. The Silver Mist Royal Court beat us to it, making it difficult for us to make a move later."

"What is the other person's personality like? Is it possible that they will defect to us?" He then asked a few more questions.

"He's a very diligent wizard." After thinking for a moment, Andrew replied, "For five years, Mr. Adir has basically stayed in his own laboratory and rarely goes out."

"As for getting them to betray the Silver Mist Royal Court," he frowned, "the chances are probably very slim."

"In the Silver Mist Royal Court, he is not only the successor to the next High Priest, but also married the daughter whom King Kass loves most. In the future, he will not only be the High Priest, but will most likely become the next Elf King directly."

"Even we couldn't possibly receive a higher level of treatment."

"This is troublesome." Lucius shook his head slightly, not surprised by the situation.

A pure-blooded moon elf deserves this kind of treatment. Not to mention the Silver Mist Royal Court on the surface, even Lucius himself would probably do the same if he could find a pure-blooded moon elf.

After all, this is a pure-blooded moon elf, a natural-born level four powerhouse. Even if she does nothing, once her bloodline matures automatically, she can reach the level four, enough to determine the fate of her race.

For such a promising stock, no amount of treatment is too much.

Of course, if one is determined from the beginning to plunder bloodlines, that's a different story, but most people wouldn't do that, as it would be too wasteful.

"It seems we'll have to use some special methods." Thinking of this, Lu Xiu shook his head and sighed.

"High Priest, what do you want?" Andrew's eyes narrowed as he looked at Lucius, as if he had made a connection to something.

Under Andrew's watchful gaze, Lucius didn't keep him in suspense any longer and simply stretched out a hand.

It was a withered arm, its skin fair and smooth, yet tinged with gray. In its palm lay a deep black gem, emitting a faint black glow that drew the attention of those around it.

"This is..." Andrew's expression changed as he looked at the deep black gem.

"Indeed, it's a Black Eye Stone," Lu Xiu said quietly. "This is the last one in my collection."

"You're really generous." Andrew glanced at Lucius, his eyes fixed on the gem, his desire undisguised.

"Under normal circumstances, of course, it would be hard to part with, but a pure-blooded moon elf is absolutely worth it," Lucius sighed softly.

Black Eye Stone is a unique treasure from the underground world, and its quantity is extremely rare.

This thing is an absolute treasure for subterranean creatures. It can not only cleanse their bloodline, but also be used for baptism, making their soul talents stronger.

Even for a dark elf prince like Andrew, this was an absolute treasure. Despite his noble status, he had only used a small piece for baptism when he was young.

But what Lucius held in his hand was the size of a fist, and in terms of weight alone, it was dozens of times larger than the one Andrew had once had.

Of course, looking at this thing, Andrew already understood Lucius's plan.

Black-eyed Stones are absolute treasures for subterranean creatures, but while they are also good for surface creatures, they come with some side effects.

One of the side effects is that after using the Black Eye Stone, the user will be infected by the underground aura, their mind will begin to be affected, and they may even eventually transform into a real underground creature.
