Chapter 18 Refining Blood

"Brother, don't go too far!" Lilith stood up at this time, her eyes also full of anger.

【elder brother?】

Lancelot looked confused as to why the relationship between these wizards was so complicated.

"Dear Lilith, why should we kill each other because of a heretic?" Caesar said in a sinister tone, his eyes never leaving Gloria as he waited for the other party's reply.

The other three wizards stood not far behind Gloria like logs. They didn't say a word from beginning to end, obviously not wanting to be involved.

After a brief silence, Gloria finally made up her mind and squeezed out a few syllables with difficulty.

"Okay, I promise you."

"Gloria, are you crazy!" Lilith couldn't believe her ears and hurriedly stepped forward to pull her back. "This little boy is not worthy of what you are doing! Father, father will never do it either.

Agreed!"

Gloria smiled calmly, pushed Lilith's hand away, and said firmly: "I will never go back on my word."

"Okay, okay, I won't kill him."

"No, you must promise me that you will not harm this child from now on." Gloria frowned, not believing Caesar's casual promise.

Caesar snorted coldly when he heard this, and his face became a little gloomy.

But then he thought about it, since he had obtained divine power and successfully forced Gloria to give up her right to inherit the throne, why should he care about the life and death of a boy.

Caesar clasped his hands together, looked up at the sky, and read word by word: "I swear in the name of the God of Wizards, no matter when or where, I will never harm this boy."

Gloria breathed a sigh of relief, and she finally felt relieved.

The wizard's oath is accompanied by a permanent curse. Once the person who swears the oath violates the oath, the wizard's god will directly separate the soul of the oath-breaker from the body and become a dead soul that is excluded from the three realms.

"Now it's your turn to fulfill your promise and take this trash away immediately."

——

The witch sighed softly and returned to reality. She found that she had become a little sentimental tonight.

Lancelot swallowed and tried to digest what he had just witnessed.

"You mean, you killed them all?" the boy asked.

"No, Caesar is still alive. After my father died, Caesar successfully inherited the throne. Moreover, even if I take away other people's talents, I am no match for him."

[Why did I have no memory of my mother when I first traveled through time?]

[Why do the fishermen in the port and the townspeople in Tucker Town have completely different attitudes towards witches?]

[Why did Gloria bring me to Caesar and save herself at all costs? 】

[Where did the evil god that appeared in the dream go? Wouldn’t he appear when my life is in danger? 】

[Magician? Wizard? Is Gloria a witch or a wizard? 】

【.】

New doubts kept popping up in Lancelot's mind, and there was only one thing that was certain at the moment: that wizard named Caesar killed the mother of the original owner.

"Not long after that incident happened, I killed Lilith and took away all her talents." Gloria said, her tone became a little dry, "She is my biological sister, and I am the closest to her.

Human. If it weren’t for this, how could it be possible so easily..."

Lancelot did not speak, but listened silently to the witch's story about the sad past.

"As for the other three guys, it didn't take me much time. I only needed to make a small sacrifice to defeat them."

"In that case, why didn't you come to me until now?" Lancelot asked puzzledly, he still didn't understand the logic behind it.

Gloria showed a wry smile and explained softly: "Because it wasn't until tonight that I fully absorbed their talents."

Lancelot was stunned when he heard this, and then he suddenly seemed to understand something.

"The cup of blood you drank turned out to be..."

The witch couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "Lancelot, the four of them have very high talents themselves. Coupled with the talents taken away from you, this is an extremely long process."

Lancelot felt a little strange and asked: "But didn't you take away my talent in a short time that night?"

"You are right, but this method of quickly seizing talents can only be achieved without killing the opponent." Gloria nodded and continued: "I can only choose another way, which is

Drink their blood."

"The principle is very simple, it is to convert their blood into magic power in the body." Gloria paused, then patiently explained: "This is a very ancient magic. The caster can transfer the magic power that carries the talent.

To others.”

"..." The boy fell into deep thought. He could not imagine how abnormal the talents of these four wizards were, which actually required the witches to spend so much time and energy.

While the boy was deep in thought, the crystal ball began to emit strange light again, and a clear picture began to appear on the crimson surface.

Upon seeing this, Lancelot quickly concentrated his attention and continued to observe the changes on the crystal ball.

The picture displayed by the crystal ball is exactly the center of the Demonic Forest, where the castle is located.

However, the castle in the picture was different from what Lancelot had seen before. The surrounding trees were sparse and far less dense than they are now, and the twisted and twisted branches resembled the old man's withered hands.

There is no figure of Warcraft in the picture, there is no sound of wind, no chirping of birds, everything exudes a deathly cold silence.

Lancelot caught a glimpse of a black figure walking slowly on the forest path.

When the camera zoomed in, it was discovered that the person was Gloria in a black robe. He was holding the unconscious Lancelot in his arms, and his tired figure was continuously stretched in the moonlight.

After a while, the witch walked into the castle.

Everything began to move forward rapidly, and the pictures on the crystal ball underwent various drastic changes.

Lancelot had to concentrate all his attention to barely see certain events clearly.

In less than a minute, the scene in the crystal ball stopped abruptly. Lancelot was still immersed in it, and did not come back to his senses for a long time.

At this moment, Lancelot felt as if he had experienced a storm in his heart, and he finally understood the whole story.

The reason why the witch abandoned the young Lancelot in the small town was not only because of her revenge plan. It took Gloria only one year to kill four other wizards except Caesar.

To seize the talent, you need to set up a huge magic circle, which must be calcined with extremely high-temperature flames before it can be successfully transferred into your body.

It is very difficult to refine the talents in the blood. What is even more difficult is that their talents are not only the parts they took from Lancelot.

Lilith and others are direct bloodlines of the royal family, and each of them carries the talents of at least dozens of magicians.

Therefore, the time required to refine talent is extremely long, and may even take hundreds of years.

It was impossible for Gloria to wait for such a long time, so she chose a simpler and cruder method, drinking the blood diluted by the potion directly.
