Ka! Ka!
Muffled footsteps continuously sounded out, not stopping for a long time.
After looking at the surroundings, Adil walked forward and looked at the scene where the black-clothed man disappeared.
"Completely disappeared?"
After checking the surroundings and confirming that the black-clothed man's body had completely disappeared, Leylin was puzzled and ordered the A.I. Chip in his mind, "A.I. Chip, replay the scene just now!"
Following the order, scenes appeared in Leylin's mind and continuously replayed.
However, in the scene recorded by the A.I. Chip, from start to finish, there was no black-clothed man. Everything was very normal, as if the scene just now was a hallucination.
However, looking at the surroundings and feeling the unique feeling he had when facing the monster, Adil did not have the slightest doubt, only that the doubts in his heart increased.
After waving his hand and dismissing the guard who was walking over, Adil's expression was calm as he quickly walked to the wooden door not far away and opened it under Sol's nervous gaze.
After opening the door, a cold aura came from the front. A girl was lying on the bed in Silence. The black mark on her body was continuously wriggling, and at this moment, it was continuously shrinking, quickly shrinking back to her forehead.
On the girl's chest, a purple stone was placed there in Silence. At this moment, it was emitting a weak radiance, causing the black mark on the girl's body to gradually disappear.
As if sensing Adil's arrival, the girl on the bed turned her head and just happened to face Adil.
A pair of cold eyes immediately fell on Adil's body, revealing a strange and crazed look.
The girl's eyes were currently open, and her entire eyes had turned white.
If one looked closely, in the white eyes, one could even see some fine black veins, as if there was some kind of mysterious and strange power, but one could not tell what it represented.
Standing on the spot and looking straight at the pair of eyes, Adil could not help but frown, feeling that something was wrong.
This feeling came and went very quickly. It seemed that because the black-clothed man had been dealt with by Adil, without the help of external forces, the power in the girl's body finally concealed itself. The pure white eyes returned to normal, and once again closed.
"Yana …" A low voice sounded from beside him.
Standing behind Adil, Sol saw the girl's expression and stood there in a daze. No one knew what he was thinking.
"I think I need an explanation."
Looking at the other party's appearance, Adil lightly said with a calm expression.
"Lord Adil."
Under Adil's gaze, Sol recovered from his daze, and a guilty expression appeared on his face.
"This matter … is very complicated."
He stared blankly for a moment before a bitter smile appeared on his face.
… …
"According to the elders, our clan should have been descendants of the Ancient Sorcerers. Our clan has the sacred bloodline of the Ancient Sorcerers."
Walking side by side with Adil in the garden, Sol explained, "However, unlike the descendants of the other ancient wizards, our race has a certain mission. We have been guarding something for generations."
"That's a relic left behind by an ancient wizard. It's a very terrifying thing. The reason why we've become like this is because of the influence of that thing."
"Did something happen to the seal?" Adil asked.
"Yes." Sol bitterly laughed, "I don't know what happened. One night, that thing's power suddenly exploded, and the curse hidden in our bloodline was activated, causing our clan members to die one after another."
"Curse?"
Hearing this, Adil could not help but frown.
"That's it."
Facing Adil's gaze, Sol pointed at his forehead and bitterly laughed.
There was a faint mark on his forehead. Even though it looked very faint, it was indeed there.
"This is the curse."
Sol sighed, "The curse in my body has already exploded, but it's being suppressed by the power of my bloodline, so I'm fine for now.
"However, as time passes, the curse's power will become stronger and stronger. When the power of my bloodline is no longer able to suppress the curse, I will become like Yana, and the curse's power will completely explode, attracting that thing."
As he spoke, his face was filled with bitterness and unwillingness.
By the side, Adil also frowned.
In the Sorcerer's world, curses were very troublesome things.
There were many types of curses. Some simple ones could be cast by apprentices, while some complex and terrifying curses would still exist even after thousands of years.
The curse on Sol that had been passed down from ancient times was undoubtedly one of the terrifying ones.
"I'll bring Yana out of here soon …"
After remaining silent for a while, Sol once again spoke, "If I continue to stay here … I'm afraid that it won't be good for Lord Adil."
"Where are you planning to go?"
Adil's expression did not change as he asked.
"I don't know." Sol's expression was somewhat bitter, "I'll try to get as far away from here as possible. The further away we are, the more the curse will be suppressed, and the longer it will take for the curse to explode. "
"You're fine."
Adil looked at him, "However, that girl's body has already started to mutate. If you bring her out of here, something might happen."
Hearing this, Sol was startled, and the bitterness on his face became even more obvious, "I didn't expect that … even Yana …"
"Are you interested in making a deal with me?" By the side, Adil's voice sounded out.
… …
At night, within a spacious laboratory, Adil stood in Silence at the center of the laboratory.
In front of him, there was a large white platform, and on it lay a little girl.
Standing in Silence, Adil drew some blood from the girl's body, then turned around and shouted to Sol, "Take off her clothes."
"Ah?" Hearing Adil's words, Sol was startled and seemed to be at a loss, "This … isn't suitable."
"What's not suitable?"
Adil turned around and looked at him, "When you helped her change her clothes, didn't you already see that she was clean?"
Hearing Adil's words, Sol's face turned red, and after hesitating for a moment, he obediently walked up and took off the girl's clothes piece by piece.
On the other side, standing in front of an experiment table, Adil held the purified blood and continuously observed it.
With the help of the A.I. Chip, Adil looked at it in Silence.
Different from normal people's blood, the girl's blood looked red, but there was a kind of dark purple in it.
In the purified blood, through the magnification of the A.I. Chip, Adil could see purple bloodline chains that were flickering with some kind of light.
Different from the bloodline chains that Adil had seen in the past, the purple bloodline chains in front of him had some kind of black substance that was rooted in the purple bloodline chains, forming a unique structure.
Magnifying his vision to the limit, Adil could see the true appearance of those things.
Those that were rooted in the bloodline chains were actually another type of even smaller bloodline chains. Although they were small, they were incomparably complex. At this moment, they were densely rooted in the purple bloodline chains, as if they were wrapped in a layer of black shell.
"This is?"
Seeing the scene in front of him, Adil was stunned, "Two different bloodline powers?"
He turned around and continued to observe.
The densely packed purple imprints and black imprints intertwined, each forming a bloodline imprint.
However, what was slightly different was that not only did the purple bloodline imprint look extremely broken, but it was also being corroded by another powerful bloodline imprint. Almost every single bloodline chain was parasitized and wrapped by another bloodline chain. Apart from a little purple, almost all of the bloodline chains had turned black.
And from the combination of the black imprints, Adil also saw something clearly.
It was an extremely complex pattern of three snakes. Every vein and every scale on it was formed by countless bloodline chains. There was a strange power to it, as if it was still alive.
Seeing this scene, Adil faintly felt something strange. A strand of spiritual force seeped out from his spiritual sea and poured into the three-headed snake imprint.
* Boom! *
As if someone had hit his head heavily, Adil only felt as if his head was about to explode. A feeling of his spiritual force being torn apart quickly spread, accompanied by the rapid loss of his spiritual force.
In his line of sight, the three-headed black snake seemed to have come to life after being stimulated by his mental power. A kind of black bloodline power circulated, and the three-headed black snake fiercely looked at Adil. Its pair of snake eyes were filled with indifference and deathly stillness, and they were gradually glowing.
[Unknown force field detected. Host's spiritual force is rapidly draining. Suggested to stop immediately!] In his mind, the A.I. Chip's alarm sounded rapidly.
Standing in front of the experimental platform, Adil panted heavily. His pair of pure black eyes had changed at some point, turning into the eyes of a snake, looking cold and indifferent.
* Bang! *
A tremor sounded in his mind. Adil quickly retreated and finally stopped the loss of his spiritual force, no longer being affected by that power.
"Lord Adil, what's wrong?" At the side, Sol's concerned voice sounded. Looking at Adil's current appearance, he seemed to be a little puzzled.
"Nothing." Lightly shaking his head, Adil's expression returned to normal, not revealing any abnormalities.
However, the scene just now had stirred up a wave in his heart.
"Is that the source of the curse?"
Standing in front of the experimental platform, thinking about the scene just now, Adil inwardly frowned, "Three-headed black snake …"
"A.I. Chip, examine the relevant information." In the next moment, Adil ordered the A.I. Chip in his mind.
