Wizard Bloodline.

Chapter 292 Heliodo, unexpected hope, [Soul Simulation]

Ronan waited for a long time, and the wizards from the three major sects left one after another. Finally, a cold old man with a pointed nose flew out from the Deep Sea Sect, waved at him, and he followed him.

The old man led Ronan to Ling Lake, and used his unusually long fingernails to gently scratch the surface of the lake. The water parted, revealing an elliptical hole as high as a person.

The old man dodged and went in. Ronan stopped in front of the cave entrance and looked back.

He saw the light above the Spirit Lake fade away, and three gray-robed men took the initiative to walk towards Juventus.
Not long after following the old man into the Spirit Lake, a black staircase appeared in front of us, leading upwards.

Going up the steps, you will be surrounded by translucent crystal walls. Outside the walls is water with a hazy light shining through. There are also some fish-like creatures swimming around in the water.

Ronan seemed to be traveling through a mysterious underwater tunnel.

“Am I an entry level person?”

Ronan stared at the old man's back. His back was hunched, and he seemed to be carrying something under his robe. There were several crystalline tubes on the back of his neck, rising and falling between his skin and flesh with the old man's footsteps.

The old man stopped suddenly and slowly turned around from the stairs.

Only then did Ronan notice that one of his eyes was a fake, with some kind of soft spherical plant root embedded in the eye socket.

“You’re lucky.”

The old man's voice was like a few brass gears rubbing against each other. "No one wants you. I just happen to be in need of an assistant in Potions."

Ronan's eyes flickered, and the old man turned around and continued talking to Ronan as he walked.

"My name is Heliodo, you can call me by my first name... Don't expect me to spend resources to improve your soul qualifications. Every wizard has his own way to go. Whether you can be promoted depends entirely on your own ability.
Of course, if your performance in the future satisfies me, I will also provide corresponding rewards or compensation. You should have a good brain, so make good use of it."

The old man's voice echoed in the narrow crystal tunnel, long-winded and nagging. Combined with his image, he really looked like an old beaver that was about to lose its teeth.

Ronan didn't say anything and just listened silently.

This Linghu wizard named Heliodo should be at level five. Almost all the wizards from the three major sects who had selected candidates were at level five, with a total of more than fifty. This shows the strength and foundation of Linghu as a super-large wizard force.

Act as an assistant to a fifth-level wizard.

Although it was different from Ronan's expectations, it was still a good result.

Before they knew it, the stairs under their feet had reached the end, and what appeared in front of Ronan was a fairly spacious room.

The room was also made of crystal, with the walls and ceiling connected to form a huge inverted bowl shape.

There were a lot of things piled up in a mess in the room, and there was an old-fashioned brass clock on the wall, ticking away.

Ronan was still looking at the furnishings in the room when suddenly, he felt as if he had fallen into a transparent tank full of glue.

The air around him twisted rapidly, becoming so sticky that he could hardly even lift his eyelids. The flow of time seemed to have slowed down infinitely at this moment, and a strong feeling of suffocation, like the sudden impact of tens of thousands of tons of sea water, invaded Ronan's consciousness wave after wave.

A curved and sharp hand like an eagle's claw continued to enlarge in Ronan's pupils. His mental force field had just penetrated less than an inch of his skin when it was ruthlessly extinguished.

Ronan watched the hand coming straight towards his face. His brain raced, and he only had time to yell in his mind: "Alazan!"

In the space of consciousness, the golden ladybug seemed to realize the seriousness of the problem at this moment. It flew up quickly, and with a "bang" it exploded into a ball of hazy golden mist, covering up the five spiritual power crystals in Ronan's space of consciousness.

Then it sank quickly again and dispersed with a "buzzing" sound, wrapping up some secrets that could not be known to outsiders.

After Alazan finished his action, a torrent of spiritual power rushed into Ronan's body, traveling through his body at an incredibly fast speed, lingering for a while at the position of his heart, and finally retreating.
The change came quickly and ended quickly.

Ronan took two steps back, gasping for breath and staring at Heliodo in front of him.

Heliodo seemed to be intentionally avoiding Ronan's gaze, but he snorted coldly.

"You don't need to look at me like that... A lot of people are interested in you. You can suffer less at my hands. I can get rid of them with just one report later."

"But you are a little weird."

Heliodorus looked at Ronan with his fake eye, as if he could see through him completely.

"The soul is so filthy that it's a stretch to even rate it three stars, but the spiritual power is incredibly pure.
You are very smart, and your comprehension of magic must be quite good. Add to that the extraordinary purity of your mental power, so it is possible for you to get a five-star rating in the magic level.

But I want to remind you, kid, the wizard's body is not that important after the Dawn, don't put too much energy on it.
Oh, with your qualifications, I'm afraid your chances of advancing to Dawn are slim."

Heliodo stroked his sparsely bearded chin, stared at Ronan with a strange look, and said, "I'm still curious about how your brain works, and how you can become the second most accomplished person in the Tower of Knowledge since the founding of Linghu.
Are you interested in letting me dissect it and study it? I can exchange it with something that can improve your soul qualities."

"No need."

Ronan refused coldly and said stiffly: "Second? Then who is first?"

Perhaps Heliodo felt guilty about his behavior just now, and did not care about Ronan's rude tone, and directly gave a name.

"Heramus?!"

Ronan's pupils shrank slightly, "He was once a member of Linghu?"

"Do not."

Heliodo shook his head, “It was just a deal.

Heramus once wanted to collect all the ancient spiritual characters in the entire Upper Ring Continent, well, those rune-like things you saw in the tower.
He took out a part of his inheritance in exchange for the right to stay in the Lingwen Palace for a year. As a result, in less than half a year, he memorized all the ancient spiritual texts in the Lingwen Palace." "Heramus took out his own inheritance in exchange?"

Ronan's eyes trembled slightly, and a certain arm ring that he had hidden in the deepest part of the space ring seemed to vibrate along with it. "Does this mean that Linghu has a part of Heramus's inheritance?"

Heliodo glanced at him and said calmly: "It's not what you think. This part of the inheritance is not within the core system of Heramus.

And later it was proved that this transaction was an absolute loss for Linghu.
This part of the non-core spell inheritance has no way to be practiced without the core rune drive of the Spell Guardian system."

When Ronan heard Heliodo's words, his heart beat faster.

"So where is this part of the inheritance now?"

Ronan noticed that Heliodo had a strange look in his eyes, and added calmly, "No one would not be interested in this. Even if I can't practice it, I would like to see it. After all, it is the inheritance of the most legendary wizard in the history of the Upper Ring Continent."

“It has a chance in the deep sea.”

Heliodo laughed meaningfully a few times and reached out to pat Ronan on the shoulder, but Ronan dodged vigilantly.

He didn't care and turned around and walked towards the other exit of the room.

"Wait here for a moment. I'll prepare the things you need to get started. If you feel bored, you can count the clock on the wall..."

Ronan watched Heliodo's back disappear completely, and said coldly: "What an old beaver."

No matter what the reason, the other party's previous forced prying behavior on him had touched his bottom line, and his favorability towards him dropped to freezing point.

Fortunately, Alazan helped to cover up, otherwise he would have inevitably become a "guinea pig" in the experiment.

But then again, what Heliodo just mentioned, that a part of Heramus's magical heritage was stored in the Spirit Lake, really aroused his strong interest.

If the other party was not bragging, then he would have a new hope for his future life in Linghu.

"if it is possible"

Ronan took a deep breath and made up his mind, "I must get that part of the inheritance!"

After calming down, Ronan called out to Alazan in his heart, and soon received Alazan's tired response.

The biggest secret in Ronan's body is probably that he has five spiritual power crystals that are more than the genius who set foot in the "Misty Forbidden Zone". This secret is also closely related to Alazan, so he has no complaints.

However, after Ronan made a request again, he finally became gritted his teeth.

"Do you really think I'm an omnipotent wishing bottle that will grant any wish?"

“I don’t want to fall into the same trap again.”

Ronan said calmly: "I remember all your help to me.

This is good for you too. If I am restricted by this, you will also suffer."

Alazan fell silent.

A moment later, information about a spell came into Ronan's mind.

Ronan lowered his head and pondered it carefully.

After the brass clock on the crystal wall swung seven hundred and fifty-fourth times, Heliodo returned.

"You should understand the necessary procedures."

He walked up to Ronan and casually shook out two yellowed parchments.

The parchment began to burn rapidly the moment it was unfolded, and soon burned out, leaving only lines of flaming words in the air.

"Two contracts, one with Linghu and the other with Shenhai"

Heliodo said calmly: "If there is no problem, just cut your finger and press the blood mark..."

Ronan carefully read the contents of the two contracts, then looked up and asked, "Can I sign them directly with my soul power?"

Heliodo glanced at him and said, "That would be great."

Ronan nodded, then raised his hand. A little bit of soul power seeped out from his fingertips and merged into the two contracts in front of him.

The contract was concluded, and the words burning in the air gently dispersed and disappeared.

Heliodor confirmed that it was correct, then took out something from the sleeve of his robe and handed it to Ronan while giving him some instructions.

Ronan pretended to listen attentively, but he was communicating with Alazan in his heart.

"Are you sure this method is okay?"

"This 'Soul Simulation' is the secret of the Shadow Leech School. I remember I mentioned it to you before. It was created by Nash, the owner of the finger bone you used in Storm Realm.
I remember that his favorite thing to do when he was alive was to use this magic to disguise himself as all kinds of characters and experience different lives.
Therefore, we have many common topics.
What do you have to worry about? Don't forget that the soul power you just used to sign the contract is mine!"

"Then I feel relieved..."
