In a small but tidy room, two Magi were having a conversation.
Through their conversation, Adil found out about the other party's background.
Just as Adil had expected, this was a Bloodline Family with a long history. Its history could even be traced back to the ancient times.
After such a long time, this family had long since declined. Not only did the bloodline in the family slowly disappear, but now there were only two people left.
However, judging from Terens's strength as an official Magus, this family had clearly been glorious in the past. The bloodline in the family should be extraordinary.
What Terens said confirmed Adil's guess.
"The bloodline of the ancient Mora Earth Dragon?"
Sitting on the bed, listening to Terens's description, Adil was shocked.
The so-called Mora Earth Dragon referred to a powerful creature native to the ancient Magus World. When it matured, it would be hundreds of meters long, and it was a powerful life form comparable to a rank 3 Magus.
This ancient creature was known for its powerful vitality and lifespan. Magi with this bloodline would have their vitality and lifespan greatly increased, making them far stronger than other Magi of the same rank.
"It's just a diluted bloodline."
Sitting opposite Adil, looking at Adil's shocked expression, Terens smiled bitterly, "No matter how powerful and prosperous a bloodline is, once it declines, it will be like this."
"If not for the Mora Earth Dragon's bloodline greatly increasing lifespan, it would be difficult for these old bones of mine to even advance to an official Magus."
Bloodlines would continuously dilute. Perhaps in ancient times, their family had been prosperous, but after thousands of years, after generations of reproduction, the bloodline would gradually decline, no longer as strong as it once was.
This was the fate of most bloodline families.
However, compared to ordinary people, they were already very lucky.
With ancient bloodlines, they had an advantage in all aspects, and it could be said that they had won from the beginning.
Some Sorcerers with powerful bloodlines were said to be able to advance from an apprentice to an official Sorcerer without any obstacles. They only needed to wait for their bodies to continue to grow, allowing their bloodline to advance to an official Sorcerer. There were no obstacles in between.
Take Terens for example. Even though the ancient bloodline in his body was extremely thin, it still gave him a stronger life force and lifespan than other Magi.
Even though it was a small amount of help, it was extremely important during the apprenticeship period. At the very least, with a longer lifespan, not only could he live longer, but he would also have a higher chance of becoming an official Sorcerer.
"It's a pity that there are fewer and fewer Magi with ancient bloodlines."
This thought flashed through Adil's mind as he looked at Terens.
The current Bloodline Sorcerers were basically descendants of ancient Sorcerers.
According to the records, in ancient times, the Sorcerer World was not as peaceful as it was now. There were all kinds of powerful and terrifying ancient creatures everywhere, and some powerful bloodline creatures could even cross the entire world.
After the rise of the Ancient Sorcerers and the unification of this world, these ancient life forms were completely wiped out. Powerful bloodlines were seen as precious resources and were transplanted into the Ancient Sorcerers' bodies as a way to strengthen themselves. Only a few weak creatures were left. Because they were too weak compared to the Ancient Sorcerers, they were lucky enough to survive.
Now, powerful ancient creatures were basically extinct. Even if they were lucky enough to survive, they were scattered in vast unknown areas, which was not something ordinary Sorcerers could spy on.
Sorcerers like Terens, who had inherited ancient bloodlines, had become increasingly rare due to the thinning of their bloodlines from generation to generation.
After a while, after understanding the basic situation, Adil and Terence walked into another room. There, a little boy was lying on the bed in Silence, and he seemed to be sleeping soundly.
"Has he always been this fond of sleeping?"
Looking at the little boy on the bed, Adil frowned.
At the side, hearing Adil's words, Terens nodded, "He has always been like this. When he was young, I didn't pay much attention to it. It was only later that I realized something was wrong."
"The Mora Earth Dragon is also known for being fond of sleeping. His current state should be due to the influence of the bloodline in his body."
Looking at the little boy's appearance in Silence, Adil opened his mouth and spoke.
Under Terens' gaze, he walked forward, and his arm stopped at the area where the boy's heart was.
In his mind, a large amount of data continuously flowed in, and after being sorted out by the A.I. Chip, it was transmitted to Adil's brain.
"His heartbeat is very weak, and many of his organs have been damaged. What's more, this child's body seems to be affected by something, and his life force is slowly weakening …"
Looking at the little boy's appearance and sensing his situation, even the current Adil felt that it was a thorny problem.
"If nothing goes wrong, this child will only live for three years at most."
Standing on the spot, he turned around and said to Terens.
Facing this grievous news, Terens didn't have much of a reaction. He just calmly nodded, and it seemed that he was very clear about this situation.
"Is there a way to solve it?"
He looked at Adil with a bit of anticipation in his eyes.
Facing his expectant gaze, Adil shook his head.
"I'm sorry, this situation is a little complicated. Moreover, the bloodline illness is rooted in the bloodline, and there is no way to improve it in a short period of time."
Under the expectant gaze of the other party, Adil opened his mouth and said.
Hearing this, a hint of disappointment appeared in Terens' eyes, but he didn't feel much.
In these ten years, he had looked for too many people and was disappointed too many times. He was already used to this scene.
"However, if it's just to suppress this symptom, I still have a way."
Under the surprised gaze of the other party, Adil smiled and said.
"Really?" Terens was a little surprised and also a little surprised. He just looked at Adil blankly and asked, "Are you confident?"
"Of course." Facing this question, Adil didn't hesitate at all and directly nodded.
"Okay."
Terens nodded and smiled. "Just nice, I have some advanced knowledge about bloodlines. I think Sir Adil should be interested."
"Of course."
Seeing that the other party was so understanding, Adil also smiled.
After chatting for a while, Adil turned around and walked out.
"I didn't expect to have such an unexpected gain."
Walking on the road, Adil muttered to himself.
At this moment, there was more knowledge in his mind. Although it was only the basic part, it still made Adil feel surprised.
This was part of the consultation fee that the other party had paid in advance. It seemed like he was afraid that Adil wouldn't be willing to help, so he purposely took out some of the precious knowledge that had been passed down in his family.
From the other party, Adil also obtained some information about the surroundings and some information about heading to the Mason area.
According to the other party, there was an extremely long distance from the Northern Plains to the Mason area, and they could only go back and forth by airship.
However, the other party wasn't clear about the specific situation. If he wanted to get more accurate information, he would have to go to the inner city to ask around.
"Just nice, I also need a more advanced laboratory to help me deal with some things."
Standing on the spot and looking out the window, Adil muttered to himself.
At this time, the rain outside the window was still falling, but it was slowly getting lighter. It seemed like it wouldn't be for long.
After standing on the balcony and looking out for a while, Adil returned to his room and prepared to rest.
The next day.
After the rain outside stopped, Adil changed into a black robe and walked towards the inner city.
Beside him, Terrence, who was dressed in a grey robe, was also standing with him.
This time, he was here to act as a guide and buy some things for himself.
After the previous night's exchange, he was also very impressed by Adil's knowledge and attainments in bloodline knowledge. At this time, when he heard that Adil was going to the inner city to inquire about information, he immediately came out with his grandson.
As they walked, they saw that there were fewer and fewer people around.
Soon, they arrived at an isolated area, and two level 3 Acolytes appeared in front of them, standing guard outside a city gate.
Different from the other Acolytes, these two level 3 Acolytes looked quite ordinary, but they gave off a unique spiritual aura that gave off a sense of pressure.
However, after sensing the faint auras coming from Adil and Terens, the two level 3 Acolytes' expressions changed, and they said respectfully, "Welcome, Sirs!"
After casually glancing around, Adil and the others did not stay here for long, and they quickly walked forward.
"These are Magi specially chosen by the local Magus organisations. They are Blood Magi who often fight with other races, and their battle strength is very strong."
Looking at Adil, Terens explained, "Do you feel the spiritual pressure coming from those Acolytes? That's a symptom of being cursed by too many other races, and it represents their battle achievements. "
"Are there many other races nearby?"
Adil asked.
"Many, very many."
Terens said, "At the borders of the northern plains, there are these other races everywhere. Magi who move around here have to deal with them, and every year, countless people die. They are very difficult to deal with."
"Some of these other races are left behind by ancient Magi, while others are native races of the Magus World. There are even some with bloodlines, and they are scattered all over the northern part of the continent, blocking off all paths."
Looking at Adil, Terens shook his head, "If it wasn't for these other races, we wouldn't even need to take a dirigible to get to Mason Region. We could just walk on land."
"Are these other races very strong?"
Walking on the path of reason, Adil asked with great interest.
"Most of them aren't very strong, but there are too many of them. Adding on the fact that there are some Magi of other races, we haven't been able to deal with them."
