In the small and tidy room, two wizards were talking.
During the conversation, Athir also learned about the other party's background.
Just as Athir had expected before, this was a bloodline family with a long history, a history so long that it could even be traced back to ancient times.
After such a long time, this family has already declined. Not only has the bloodline in the family slowly disappeared, but now there are only two people left.
However, judging from Terrence's strength as a formal wizard, this family was obviously once glorious, and the bloodline running in the family must be extremely extraordinary.
The results described by the other party also confirmed Athir's guess.
"The bloodline of the ancient Mora Earth Dragon?"
Sitting at the head of the bed, listening to Terence's story, Athir was surprised.
The so-called Mora Earth Dragon refers to a powerful creature native to the ancient wizard world. When it grows up, it is hundreds of meters long and is a powerful life form that can rival a third-level wizard.
This ancient creature is known for its powerful vitality and longevity. Wizards with this bloodline will also receive a huge bonus to their vitality and longevity, making them much stronger than wizards of the same level.
"It's just a thin vein of blood."
Opposite to Athir, Terrence smiled bitterly at the surprised expression on Athir's face: "No matter how powerful and prosperous a bloodline is, once it declines, that's it."
"If it weren't for the fact that the blood of the Mora Earth Dragon greatly increases lifespan, it would be difficult for me, with my old bones, to even be promoted to a formal wizard."
Bloodlines will continue to dilute. Perhaps in ancient times, their family was once prosperous, but after thousands of years, after generations of reproduction, the bloodline will eventually slowly decline and no longer be as concentrated as before.
This is also the ultimate fate of most bloodline families.
However, compared to ordinary people, they are already very lucky.
With ancient blood, they have great advantages in all aspects and can be said to have won at the starting line from the very beginning.
It is said that some wizards with powerful bloodlines have no obstacles at all from apprentice to formal wizards. They just need to wait for their bodies to continue growing and let their bloodlines drive the improvement of their life levels, which will lead to the promotion of wizard levels. There are no obstacles in between.
Just like Terrence in front of him, even though the ancient blood in his body has become extremely thin, it still gives him stronger vitality and lifespan than other wizards.
Although this help is weak, it is very important for the apprentice period. At least with a longer lifespan, not only can you live longer, but the possibility of being promoted to a formal wizard is also greater.
"Unfortunately, wizards like this with ancient blood in their bodies are becoming increasingly rare nowadays."
Looking at Terrence in front of him, this thought flashed through Athir's mind.
In fact, most of today's bloodline wizards are descendants of ancient wizards.
According to the records in books, in ancient times, the wizarding world was not as peaceful as it is now. It was filled with all kinds of powerful and terrifying ancient creatures. Some powerful bloodline creatures could even span the entire world, which was terrifying to the extreme.
After the ancient wizards rose and unified the world, these ancient lives were completely wiped out. The powerful bloodlines were regarded as precious resources and were transplanted into the bodies of the ancient wizards as a means of strengthening themselves. Only a few weak creatures were left, and they were lucky enough to be preserved because they were too weak compared to the ancient wizards.
By now, the powerful ancient creatures have basically become extinct. Even if there are occasional survivors, they are distributed in vast unknown areas, which are definitely beyond the reach of ordinary wizards.
Wizards like Terrence who inherited ancient bloodline have become increasingly rare as the bloodline has become thinner from generation to generation.
After a while, after knowing the basic situation, Athir and Terrence walked into another room. There, a little boy was lying quietly on the bed, apparently sleeping soundly.
"Has he always been this sleepy?"
Looking at the little boy at the head of the bed, Athir frowned slightly.
On the side, listening to Athir's words, Terrence nodded: "It has always been like this. When he was a child, I didn't care about it until later I found out something was wrong."
"Mora Earth Dragon is also known for being sleepy. His current appearance should be affected by the blood in his body."
Looking quietly at the little boy on the bed, Athir spoke.
With Terence watching from the side, he stepped forward and paused his arm at the boy's heart.
In his mind, a large amount of data is constantly pouring in. After being sorted by the chip, it is transmitted to Athir's mind.
"The heartbeat is very weak, and many organs throughout the body are damaged. What's more serious is that this child's body seems to have been affected by something, and his vitality is slowly weakening..."
Looking at the little boy in front of him and sensing his situation, even Athir now finds it difficult.
"If nothing unexpected happens, this child will probably live for three years at most."
Standing there, he turned and said to Terrence.
Faced with this sad news, Terrence did not react much. He just nodded calmly, and it seemed that he was very clear about the situation.
"Is there a solution?"
He looked at Athir with a hint of anticipation in his eyes.
Facing his expectant eyes, Atier shook his head.
"I'm sorry, this situation is a bit complicated, and the blood disease is rooted in the blood. There is no way to improve it in a short period of time."
In the other party's expectant eyes, Athir spoke.
Hearing this, Terrence's eyes suddenly showed a hint of disappointment, but he didn't feel much.
In the past ten years, he has looked for too many people and been disappointed too many times. He has long been accustomed to the scene before him.
"However, if I just want to curb this symptom, I still have a way."
Facing the other party's surprised look, Atier said with a smile.
"Really?" Terrence was a little surprised and a little delighted. He just stared at Athir blankly and asked, "Are you sure?"
"Of course." At this question, Athir nodded without any hesitation.
"good."
Terrence nodded and smiled: "It just so happens that I have some advanced knowledge about bloodlines, I think Lord Athir will be interested in it."
"certainly."
Seeing that the other party was so sensible, a smile appeared on Atier's face.
After chatting for a while, Athir turned and walked out.
"I didn't expect to have such an unexpected gain."
Walking on the road, Athir muttered to himself.
At this time, there was some more knowledge in his mind. Although it was basic, it still surprised Athir.
These were part of the medical fees paid in advance by the other party. It seemed that he was afraid that Athir would not be willing to help, so he specially took out some precious knowledge passed down in his family.
From the other party, Athir also obtained some information about the surrounding area, as well as some intelligence about going to the Meissen area.
According to the other party, the distance from the northern plains to the Meissen area is extremely long, and the only way to travel back and forth is by airship.
However, the other party is not clear about the specific situation. If you want to find accurate information, you need to go to the inner city to inquire.
"It just so happens that I also need a more advanced laboratory to help me deal with some things."
Standing there, looking out the window, Athir muttered to himself.
At this time, the rain outside the window is still falling, but it is gradually getting smaller now, and it doesn't look like it will last long.
After standing silently on the balcony for a while, Athir returned to his room and prepared to rest.
the next day.
After the rain outside stopped, Athir changed into a black robe and walked towards the inner city.
Beside him, Terrence, dressed in a gray robe, was also standing with him.
This time he came mainly to act as a guide and to purchase some things for himself.
After the communication that night before, he was also very impressed with Athir's knowledge and attainments in blood knowledge. When he heard that Athir was going to the inner city to inquire about the news, he immediately came out with his grandson.
As I walked around, there were fewer and fewer people around me.
Soon, they arrived at an uninhabited isolated area, and two third-class apprentices appeared in front of them, guarding outside a city gate.
Different from apprentices from other places, although these two third-class apprentices looked very ordinary, they had a unique spiritual courage that gave people a sense of oppression.
However, after sensing the faint aura of Athir and the other man, the two third-class apprentices' faces changed, with a respectful expression: "Welcome, my two lords!"
After a casual glance, Athir and his companions did not stay here for long and quickly walked forward.
"These wizards are specially selected by the local wizard organization. They are all blood wizards who often fight against alien creatures. They are very powerful."
Looking at Athir, Terrence explained to him: "Do you feel the mental oppression on those apprentices? That is a symptom that only occurs when you are cursed by too many alien races. It represents their battle record."
"Are there many alien races around here?"
Athir asked.
"A lot. Very much."
Terence said: "On the border of the northern plains, there are these alien races everywhere. Wizards who are active around here basically have to deal with these alien races. Countless people die every year. It is very difficult to deal with them."
"Some of these alien races are the remains of ancient wizards, and some are native to the wizard world. There are even bloodline races. They are distributed in the north of the entire continent, completely blocking the road."
Looking at Athir, Terrence shook his head and said, "If it weren't for these alien races, we wouldn't need to take an airship to go to the Meisen area. We can just walk directly on land."
"Are these alien races very strong?"
Walking on the truth, Athir asked with great interest.
"Most of them are not strong, but there are too many of them. In addition, there are also some alien wizards, so we have never been able to solve them."
Looking at Athir, Terrence replied.
