“Nevermind, no matter who you are, you’re just a group of apprentices, and you can’t help me anyway.” The man lowered his eyebrows helplessly: “But, you are indeed lucky to not be parasitized by the creatures here and still survive.”
The man talked to himself for a while, but Angel and the others remained silent.
“Now, your luck may continue.” The man struggled to lift his head, pulling the golden thread through his neck, splashing blood.
He seemed not to notice, slowly sweeping his gaze over everyone.
Finally, his eyes stopped on Angel. He carefully looked at Angel, and after a while, there was a flash of regret in his eyes.
Then he sighed slightly and turned his gaze to Nausica.
“My name is Grak, have you heard of me?” The man slowly said: “Nevermind, whether you have heard of me or not, I am just a fool destined to fall here, and it would only be a joke if it spreads.”
“To put it simply, I am a wizard of the bloodline lineage, and I am about to fall.” Grak’s voice carried a hint of desolation: “Tortured by these damned lines and watched closely by these strange dragonflies, I have no way out. I know I can’t hold on much longer, maybe just a minute or two.”
“Before I die, I want to leave my inheritance behind. What’s your name, lady in the soft leather armor?” Grak stared at Nausica.
Nausica hesitated for a moment, and just as she was about to say her name, she was interrupted by Grak.
“Nevermind, whatever your name is, you are just a passerby in my life’s journey, and it’s meaningless to know your name.” Grak shook his head and said: “Just remember one thing, your lucky day has come. To keep my inheritance from being lost, I will leave you all my inheritance… including the bloodline within me now. You will have my Grak bloodline and the Nether Demon Lord’s bloodline!”
“Come, lady! Embrace your lucky day and accept my inheritance!”
Grak’s words flowed like water, uninterrupted, seemingly full of temptation, but after he finished speaking, no one moved.
“Lucky lady, I can’t hold on much longer. Once I pass away, my inheritance will be lost in darkness forever.” Grak urged again.
Nausica took a step forward but was immediately stopped by Coral. She looked back and saw Coral shaking her head gently, her mouth silently saying: Don’t go, it’s a trap.
Nausica smiled sweetly, patted her hand, and signaled her not to worry.
Angel then sat in midair, watching Grak’s performance. He naturally saw that something was amiss, but the reason he didn’t warn Nausica was simply because he felt that, in terms of emotional intelligence in interpersonal communication, Nausica was much stronger than him, after all, she was once the master of the Blackberry Sea. Even he could see that there was a problem, he didn’t believe that Nausica didn’t notice it.
“Respected Lord Grak, my name is Angel, and I am a humble bloodline apprentice. I am very grateful for your favor, but I dare not approach because those dragonflies exude a strong aura, and I’m afraid that if I move slightly, I’ll be torn apart by them,” Nausica bowed and her words were full of sincerity.
Grak’s expression tightened, suppressing the pain in his body, and squeezed out an encouraging smile for Nausica.
“The path of a wizard is never smooth, and every opportunity comes with danger. If you are worried about even this slight obstacle, it will be basically impossible to go further on the path to pursuing the truth in the future,” Grak paused and continued: “Haven’t you noticed that since you came in, these dragonflies have not shown any intention to attack you? That’s because their attention is all on me.”
“Besides, you don’t need to get too close, just come to my feet, and you’ll be fine.”
This guy… Nausica sneered in her heart, the main reason the Colorful Dragonflies didn’t attack them was because of Angel, which had nothing to do with attention.
Although she despised him in her heart, Nausica put on a “helpless yet expectant, eager yet fearful, hesitant yet worried” expression on her face.
The complex emotions conveyed by this expression were almost too much for Angel to take in.
Nausica, as the big sister, was usually indifferent and lazy, focusing on her cultivation, but her acting skills were unexpectedly superb. Angel felt that Nausica’s acting skills completely crushed his own by a mile.
Angel watched more carefully, taking in every detail and expression of Nausica’s, thinking that this kind of soul-deep acting might be useful to him in the future.
Seeing Nausica’s expression, Grak felt hopeful, looking at her indecisive appearance, perhaps just a little push, and he could persuade her to approach… Now, he might need to throw out some bait.
With that in mind, Grak sighed sadly: “Do you really not want my inheritance?”
“Forget it, no matter why you are unwilling to accept my inheritance, it’s just my dying wish after all… Your company and talking to me before I die is enough, you can have this thing.”
Grak forcefully mobilized the limited mental power he had left and took out a glass bottle from the space. With a gentle flick, he sent the bottle flying ten meters away.
When the glass bottle hit the ground, it bounced several times and finally landed not far from Nausica.
With the help of the Light spell that Coral raised, it could be clearly seen that the glass bottle was a very standardized narrow-necked bottle. The transparent body was engraved with shallow expanding runes using the internal carving technique, allowing it to hold more liquid.
Such a template bottle has a unified name: Bloodline Vial.
The vial specifically for carrying bloodlines is extremely expensive, with each one costing nearly a hundred magic crystals. Apart from very precious bloodlines, wizards would hardly use such a luxury item as a Bloodline Vial.
In the light, the Bloodline Vial was filled with a deep red liquid. According to the default specifications of the Bloodline Vial, this was definitely a precious bloodline.
“Your name is Angel, right? Take this and go. The bottle contains the Nether Demon Bloodline, which is a chance I’m giving you before I die… It’s a pity that my excellent bloodline has no one to inherit it, and the knowledge in my head has no one to inherit it either.”
Nether Demon Bloodline?! Nausica exchanged a glance with Angel and Coral, who also looked doubtful.
This was a high-level bloodline of the abyssal demon race! Although it couldn’t compare with the “Nether Demon Lord Bloodline” Grak mentioned that he had injected himself with, this bottle of bloodline was definitely a luxurious and exquisite bloodline.
Its value far exceeded that of the succubus bloodline, and even if it were put up for auction in Sky Auction, it would be a latter-half item!
Nausica had always been struggling financially, saving money to buy bloodlines. Now that the bloodline was in front of her, although she didn’t know if it was the Nether Demon Bloodline, she didn’t think Grak would deceive her at this time. If she could merge with the Nether Demon Bloodline, her combat power would be upgraded by a level, and she would take a decisive step forward in the cultivation of bloodlines!
Even if it wasn’t the Nether Demon Bloodline, being able to be stored in such a Bloodline Vial, it was probably not a cheap item. Whether for personal use or selling, it would be a huge profit!
Even the worldly and sophisticated Coral had a message in her eyes for Nausica: this deal was not a loss, go for it!
Nausica secretly gave them a “rest assured” gesture.
Nausica showed a tangled expression, glanced at Grak, and then looked at the Bloodline Vial not far away, as if she had made some decision.
Finally, she took two steps forward.
Grak secretly curled up a faint smile in the darkness.
Nausica hesitated before the Bloodline Vial, not reaching out to pick it up, which puzzled Grak slightly, as he had cast a confusion spell on the Bloodline Vial. If she didn’t pick it up, it wouldn’t be triggered.
Nausica, taking advantage of her hesitation, turned her head and gave Angel a look.
Angel understood and nodded slightly to her.
Then, Nausica flicked her hair and, imitating Grak’s usual phrasing, stuttered: “Forget it. Regardless of whether you genuinely want to pass on your inheritance, it’s all just a passing cloud to me. Lacking the power to bear too much would be a burden. Perhaps I won’t even be able to advance to a formal wizard, so I won’t waste your inheritance.”
Having said that, Nausica instantly turned around and shouted at Angel and Coral: “Go!”
At Nausica’s command, Angel and Coral both turned around, opened the door, and were about to run out. At the same time, Angel extended a gray gravity line, enveloping the Bloodline Vial on the ground, and took the Bloodline Vial silently flying away.
This sudden turn of events left Grak dumbfounded.
However, he quickly realized that these humble ants were actually playing him! The woman had been acting all along, and what infuriated him the most was that she had the audacity to mimic his tone of speech!
This was a blatant mockery!
“Damn it, you damned bugs!” Grak was so furious that the veins on his forehead were bulging, and with the gold thread beside him, his blood vessels burst open, and a mist of blood filled the air!
“Want to run? Fine! But my Bloodline Vial isn’t that easy to take!” Grak roared angrily.
“Explode!”
As these three words fell, Angel found that there was something wrong with the gravity lines wrapping the Bloodline Vial. He turned to Nausica and said: “This is bad. There’s an unknown spell attached to the Bloodline Vial, and it’s now unstable!”
A flash of regret crossed Nausica’s face, but in the next second, she shouted at Angel: “Don’t worry about it, just drop it!”
Angel hesitated for a moment, as the bloodline was worth hundreds of thousands!
However, as the energy imbalance in the Bloodline Vial became more and more severe, Angel reluctantly chose to drop it.
But just before it hit the ground, a large hand wearing a white glove caught the Bloodline Vial. A flash of light passed over the vial in that hand, and the unstable energy slowly dissipated, leaving the Bloodline Vial unharmed.
“Grak, when did you start deceiving apprentices?”
A familiar voice came from behind.
Angel’s steps halted instantly, Nausica and Coral also stopped running forward, and even Hilary, who was in a faint and being supported by Coral, was turned around to look at the sudden arrival.
As Angel looked back, he immediately saw a familiar figure.
“Mentor? You’re here!”
“Angel, are you blind? Didn’t you see that I’m here too?” Gloria’s voice came from above.
As Angel looked up, he immediately lowered his head at lightning speed.
“Lady Gloria,” Angel stammered.
“What? You don’t even want to look up at me?” Gloria snorted coldly.
At this moment, Sanders’ voice came over: “You’re wearing a skirt. If you don’t mind exposing yourself, you can fly lower so everyone can see it clearly.”
Gloria was stunned for a moment, not feeling embarrassed about exposing herself at all, and threw a flirtatious glance at Sanders: “Phantom Master, what do you think of the view under my skirt?”
Sanders coldly replied: “It’s more interesting than you used to be, at least the purple underwear doesn’t seem too tight.”
