Bloodline of the Wizard-Chapter 369 - 181 Dudor the Third, Golden Beard

Ronan saw the submission of the Ice Crystal Demon Snake, a trace of satisfaction appearing on his face.

The hard work of training during more than a month of travel had, after all, achieved some effects.

It must be said that the current strength of the Ice Crystal Demon Snake was still quite terrifying.

Three years ago, when Ronan’s bloodline underwent a second purification, this creature had made the greatest "sacrifice" for him.

Ronan only remembered that when he awoke from the blood cocoon, he saw the Ice Crystal Demon Snake looking extremely depleted and listless, even the horn that symbolized the Ancient Snake Species on its head had lost its luster.

At the time, he was quite moved and felt guilty, even mentioning to Benny that he should offer some resources as compensation to the Ice Crystal Demon Snake.

However, Benny coldly stated there was no need, as this was its duty as a magic pet and, moreover, this was also an excellent opportunity to relieve the urgent pressure arising from the "Bosilina gambling agreement."

Poor Ice Crystal Demon Snake, the final outcome was that it returned to the primal jungle alone, in a state of extreme weakness.

But unexpectedly, after three years, while Benny remained in a prematurely aged condition, this creature was more lively and vigorous than ever.

Not only had it advanced to the Third Rank as a magical beast, but its capabilities had also greatly improved in all aspects.

Ronan estimated that the combat power of the Ice Crystal Demon Snake now could almost match that of Ignatius when his bloodline was fully activated three years ago.

And this creature, from its birth till now, had only lived for less than four years in total.

"The Ancient Bloodline truly is enviable, with almost infinite potential..."

If it were not for the natural suppression coming from that one percent of the Ancient Frost Multi-Headed Snake bloodline within his own body, it would really take him quite an effort to subdue it.

Ronan thought, opening his character panel—[Strength: Level 2 Official Wizard (172%)].

Over the course of more than a month, not only had Ronan’s strength not increased in the slightest, but it had actually regressed somewhat.

The reason lay within his body, where, in the Consciousness Space, there were some changes in the first Spiritual Power Crystal, particularly in the Soul Seal related to the Frozen Tundra Soil.

Originally, the Soul Seal of the [Frozen Tundra Soil] seemed to have gained an additional ring of beautiful and complex silver patterns around it, carrying not only the icy cold of ice frost but also the mystery of space and mirrors.

After the transformation, Ronan had tested the [Frozen Tundra Soil] Soul Seal only briefly on the Ice Crystal Demon Snake, and was very satisfied with the enhanced power post-upgrade.

"Three years have solidified my foundation, narrowed some gaps between myself and the leading geniuses of the Great Wizard forces, and I have basically met all my expectations. Now, the only shortfall is probably my spiritual cultivation..."

Ronan glanced over his character panel, his eyes flickering subtly.

This gap could not be forced. With less than three months until the deadline for the Battle of Heramus Genius Seat, he could only attempt to seize every opportunity.

Heeding Kosti’s advice and coming to explore the Mechanical Heart also included the hope of finding something within the Mechanical Heart that could fill the gap in soul power needed for advancing to a Level 3 Wizard.

He could only hope that "Schiper’s Surprise Magic Box" would truly bring him some surprises.

Ronan thought, taking a quick look around him.

He took out the "Schiper’s Magic Box" that Kosti had given him and already opened, from his Space Ring, an odd metallic box filled with gears and exuding a mysterious ancient aura.

After taking the box out, Ronan immediately noticed that the brass gears meshing on the box were turning much faster now than when he was within the Silver Magic Ring.

As if it possessed some kind of guiding function.

Ronan lightly jumped onto the head of the Ice Crystal Demon Snake, holding the Magic Box in one hand and directing the Ice Crystal Demon Snake to roam around the wasteland.

Based on the speed of the gears’ rotation on the Magic Box, he quickly determined a direction, and then followed it deeper in his search.

"Clack clack—"

As the Ice Crystal Demon Snake roamed around a low hill, Ronan suddenly heard a very crisp sound of gear movement coming from the Magic Box in his hand.

The great spiritual power of a Late Second Level Stage Wizard suddenly spread out, with the [Eye of Truth] quietly weaving its way at the center of his brow.

In a vision composed of countless mottled light points, Ronan saw a creature made of complex lines coming slowly from behind the hill.

Under the detection of [Eye of Truth], the lines signified the orderly arrangement of Free Energy Particles, typically representing fully formed spells or rune formations that were in operation.

Ronan saw that it was a short-footed Grey Mountain Goat that looked very ordinary at a glance, with a broken horn atop its head, and one leg that seemed naturally shorter, causing it to limp comically as it walked.

Under the hazy sunlight of the wasteland, the Grey Mountain Goat glinted with a faint metallic luster, including each of its curled wool fibers.

Its movements and demeanor, especially the clear contrast of black and white in its eyes, were as lively as a real goat.

However, Ronan was at this moment deeply fascinated by the inner structure of the lame Grey Mountain Goat.

Through the goat’s exterior, he "saw" five robust pulsating mechanical hearts made up of countless gears, various intricately fine mechanical parts tightly combined, as well as numerous complex rune arrays, each independent yet interconnected...

"It’s simply a masterpiece of the perfect combination of alchemy and Rune Studies..."

Ronan narrowed his eyes, murmuring softly.
