To become a wizard, one had to reach a certain level of energy, body, and soul.
Angor's soul had long surpassed this level. His physical body was his weakest point. But after this trip to the Nightmare Realm, he somehow managed to improve his physical body. He still needed to train, but it shouldn't take too long.
In other words, as long as his energy level reached a certain level, he would meet the three requirements to become a wizard.
Angor was surprised himself. He thought he had a long way to go, but now he could see the end?
Of course, almost every Level 3 Acolyte would be able to fulfill these three conditions with the passage of time. But whether one could become a wizard in the end depended on one's own strength.
Time was needed to build up one's mana pool and one's own strength. So, these were all things that could happen in the future. Let's not talk about them for now.
Angor's bloodline test did not look good. It was not even as good as other inferior bloodlines.
But Sunders was very excited. He couldn't hold back his excitement. Right in front of Angor, he quickly wrote down the data and his own hypothesis on the parchment scroll.
Sunders didn't mind Angor's eavesdropping. He even explained some of the data and formulas to Angor while writing.
Such research data usually came with Sunders' personal experience, which was very useful.
Angor quickly read the book.
[Research on the Origin of Projected Bloodlines] Hypothesis 1: Is a projected bloodline considered an external bloodline when the fusion rate between the main body and the projected bloodline is over 95%?
Hypothesis 2: Is the fusion between the projected bloodline and the main body only a quantitative change?
Hypothesis 3: If it's only a quantitative change, can the new bloodline be directly fused without purifying it?
Hypothesis 4: …
In the end, Sunders quickly wrote down a conclusion with his quill: Is this bloodline fusion the best bloodline? Can it be used as a general research topic?
As Sunders continued writing, Angor gradually gained a better understanding of his own bloodline. Actually, it didn't feel like a bloodline at all. Let's say Angor used to have half a vat of water. Now, he just filled it up.
The vat was still the same, and the water was still the same.
Since the vat and the water remained the same, there was no bloodline talent.
So, did this count as a bloodline fusion? The answer was hard to define.
However, Sunders believed that the combination of the projected bloodline and the original bloodline was extremely beneficial. Because there was no qualitative change, if his guess was correct, he could fuse with other bloodlines.
This meant that he could save a lot of time and maximize the potential of his body.
However, all of this was still a guess. Sunders still needed to do something to verify his theory.
And there was also the most important point: Would there be any hidden disadvantages when the projected bloodline fuses with the main body?
For example, some sorcerers could even hide their consciousness in a drop of blood and merge it with another person's body. They could then take over another person's body.
These disadvantages also needed to be investigated.
However, it would take a lot of steps and data to test for such an unfavorable situation. Although this was the correct method, it was actually a stupid method.
Sunders did not need to do it himself. He could simply ask a Divination Wizard to make a judgment for him.
"I'll ask for Maya's opinion when we get back to Brute Cavern," said Sunders. Maya was the only Prophet in Brute Cavern.
Angor nodded. "Can I …"
Sunders glanced at Angor.
"No, no, no, I'll do it myself!" Angor quickly declined.
Sunders chuckled in his mind and recorded the new topic into Mystery of the Nightmare Realm. He then turned to Angor and said, "The projected bloodline won't help you much, but I think it's the most suitable bloodline for you. Although I don't think you need to purify your bloodline to fuse with a new bloodline, I advise you not to fuse with a new bloodline before you become an official Wizard. After all, many powerful bloodlines can only be fused with after you become an official Wizard. "
Angor nodded. He was not a Bloodline Wizard. His only goal was to become a wizard as long as he could acquire a bloodline.
Since the projected bloodline already met his needs, he did not need to force it. After all, he was an Illusionist. Even if he needed to do future research to improve his knowledge, bloodline research would be at the bottom of his list.
Besides, he would rather have nothing than something substandard. Since he already had a better bloodline, why would he settle for an ordinary one? It would be a joke if he failed to purify his bloodline in the future.
"I'm glad you understand. That's all for today," said Sunders. He then looked at Angor's right hand. "As for your right hand, I can only make a rough guess."
Under Angor's hopeful gaze, Sunders continued, "Your strength is basically the same as a Bloodline Apprentice without activating his or her bloodline power. However, this is only a basic strength test. As for other special effects … "
Sunders glanced at the floating green pattern on Angor's right hand. "… I can't say for sure yet. I'll do some research and make a more detailed test list for you.
If you find anything, please write it down. I'll use it as a reference. "
Sunders sounded casual when he said that, but he was actually very serious about it. He was a little afraid of Angor's right hand. That day, he said he saw the blond hair fusing with Angor's hand, and it was true.
However, he didn't tell Angor how terrible his condition was at that time. The aura released by the blond hair was the strongest he had ever felt in his life. It was even more terrifying than the legendary aura he sensed in Nether City.
Every time Sunders thought about it, he felt that it was a terrible nightmare.
Because of this, Sunders refused even when Angor asked him to test his right hand. He didn't even dare to look at the right hand in his current condition.
Moreover, every time he stared at the green lines, he seemed to be able to see a pair of indifferent scarlet eyes. Just like the pair of red eyes that flashed for a brief moment when he fused with the bloodline not long ago.
Angor had no idea what was going on in Sunders' mind. He kept opening and closing his right hand, trying to get used to the new power.
He looked at the waving green runes and took out a delicate black glove from his space storage.
He released a bit of nightmare aura from his fingertip and covered the glove with the emblem of the Igulo Clan.
"Wear this glove. It can help you hide the green pattern." Sunders suddenly realized that he only asked Angor to hide the green pattern because he didn't want to see it. He didn't ask for Angor's opinion. After all, it depended on one's attitude whether or not to hide such a phenomenon. Some wizards liked to treat such a phenomenon as a personal feature, while others preferred to keep a low profile.
He didn't know which one Angor belonged to, and it didn't seem right to force it on him.
But since he already gave the glove to Sunders, it would hurt his dignity as a teacher to take it back.
Sunders considered and prepared to explain. For example, the green pattern might reveal information about the Nightmare Realm …
But before he could say anything, Angor's eyes lit up and he put the glove away.
"Such a strong illusion node. It's made of nightmare energy. How did you do it?" Angor was surprised.
"Ahem. This is a nightmare mimicry spell based on nightmare power. You can wear it and study it yourself," explained Sunders.
Angor nodded and put the glove on his right hand.
As expected, the green pattern was quickly covered by the glove. Even his right hand, which was one knuckle longer than his left hand, was completely covered up.
The glove looked exactly the same as his left hand.
Angor was satisfied with the result. The glove looked nice as well. The glove was completely black, but there was a pattern of dark silver embroidery on the back of his hand: a longsword with two wings, inserted in a thorny rose.
He knew this was Sunders' family emblem. Under the pattern, there was a beautiful line of words: Everlasting Rose, Eternal Glory.
It looked exactly the same as the "gold coin" Sunders gave him for the Phantom Island pass.
While Angor played with the glove, Sunders began to collect the items he brought back from Witch's Town.
He used Banish to throw away all the ordinary items. Magic plants were useless to him, so he gave them to Angor.
The leftover liquid of the Water Demon was a kind of high-energy liquid. It was a very universal item. It could be used for personal use or for sale. Still, Sunders left the money to Angor, and he didn't really care about it.
As for the Bloodcreepers, they were the most valuable ones.
However, Sunders destroyed the soul of a wizard-level monster in the Nightmare Realm, so he could not extract the bloodline from her bones. At most, it could only be considered a material. Angor estimated the price to be six digits.
He planned to grind the bones into powder to make some research materials.
As for the Bloodcreepers wrapped around the bones, he left them to Angor.
However, the Bloodcreepers were wizard-level materials, so Angor could not use them for now. After asking about the price of the Bloodcreepers, Angor put them into his bracelet without hesitation.
Six digits!
If he sold it, he could pay back the money he owed Sunders!
As for why he did not pay Sunders directly, it was because Sunders said the Bloodcreepers should be worth more than 200 thousand. Angor only owed Sunders 150 thousand.
"Alright. You got a good haul from the Nightmare Realm this time. You brought everything out. Looks like you can bring wizard-level items, at least, "Sunders chuckled.
"Everything?" Angor was confused. "But … I didn't bring the painting, right?"
"Painting? What painting? "
