Chapter 1018: Chapter 256: Waiting for Guests with Pearls_3

"It’s quite simple," Liu Zhenhan looked around at the expectant eyes and scooped up Guoguo, who was nibbling on hazelnuts from the ground. "I need to remove the ’Tuodu’ from the heads of the second and third young masters."

"What?" Elder Andulan and several mistresses were completely astonished.

"Shh! Keep your voice down," Liu Zhenhan said softly. "The fewer people know about this, the better."

"How do you plan to do it?" Elder Andulan asked anxiously. "Have you gone mad? The second and third young masters are your Blood Infants! The ’Tuodu’ is the Blood Relic in their heads. Once it’s removed, how can you expect them to freely transform into a triphibious state in the future? I heard from Orson that they had transformed into two-headed Shepherd-tree People a few days ago, and their size had doubled! They knocked a Sub-dragon Magical Beast unconscious in close combat before it could even cast a spell!"

"Elder, you say this because you do not understand what ’Tuodu’ is, nor its function," Liu Zhenhan said with a faint smile. "As you know, I am a Saint Chiao Mage who has studied ancient Blood Magic and has spent some time with the Blood Elves. I have a slight understanding of ’Tuodu’. In comparison with Magical Beast pearls, ’Tuodu’ functions differently. Magical Beast pearls are closer to Origin power, while a Blood Infant’s ’Tuodu’ contains pure Blood Magic Power and Blood Magic spells, offering only an augmenting ability, not an amplifying function. Even if it happens to amplify, it’s an amplification spell unique to Blood Magic."

"I have already had a vague understanding of this. I knew the functions of your six great ’Tuodu’, none of which seemed to be of much use," Elder Andulan said with a smile. "So, what kind of Blood Magic spells do you think are contained in the second and third young masters’ ’Tuodu’?"

"Let’s not talk about my two Blood Infant sons for now. Let me give you an example with my ’Blood Pact Tuodu’," Liu Zhenhan explained slowly, with the air of a high-ranking Saint Chiao Mage of Blood Magic: "This ’Blood Pact Tuodu’ came from a Blood Infant of a Magic Tutor. Once worn, as long as you smear your lips with the blood of your opponent, you can forge a blood pact with a powerful opponent to avoid aggression. If used on special occasions, it should be somewhat useful."

"The use is not that great. In the end, it is just for self-protection," said Elder Andulan.

"Actually, you shouldn’t say that!" Liu Zhenhan nodded. "The Magic Tutor’s Blood Infant that bore this ’Blood Pact Tuodu’ was actually quite wronged. It had the chance to bear a powerful attack spell because the Blood Magic spell in the ’Tuodu’ corresponds with the level of the Blood Infant. The level of the Blood Infant matches the level of the Blood Magic spell. However, due to the presence of random attributes, this ’Tuodu’ ended up with this rather trivial spell. This conclusion I’ve drawn from the combined information from the Ancient Magic Book and casual conversations with Mages from Moore."

"So you mean, when you remove the ’Tuodu’ from the Blood Infant’s head, you have to be lucky too, because the spell and mana contained in the ’Tuodu’ are randomly variable, and you might end up with a rubbish spell," Elder Andulan seemed to understand Richard’s intention.

"Exactly," Liu Zhenhan said with a smile and nod. "Although the Moores have never collected ’Tuodus’ from Blood Infants above the level of Magic Tutors, the rules and logic are the same. This can be concluded with a little reasoning."

"Does taking out the ’Tuodu’ from the second and third young masters have anything to do with your request for the toxic Gu from Medusa Witch Doctor?" Elder Andulan was still confused.

"You’ll know when the time comes," Liu Zhenhan teased, grinning.

"Tsk!" The elder couldn’t help but curse out loud. "I can’t stand people who only talk halfway like you!"

"What augmenting ability do the ’Tuodus’ of the second and third young masters possess?" Ruona squinted at Richard, pouting her cherry lips. "Our second and third young masters only know one triphibious transformation spell, and they have to hold hands to complete it. This means that their ’Tuodus’ can’t possibly have any randomness, which means, after all the randomness, the only choice is ’triphibious transformation’! What exactly are you planning by taking out these two ’Tuodus’?"

"Say, there won’t be any danger to the second and third young masters when you remove the ’Tuodu’, right?" Elder Andulan interjected with a hint of worry.

"No," Liu Zhenhan asserted as he placed Guoguo on his shoulder. "The ’Tuodu’ is extraneous. Having it in their heads is more annoying than useful. Both my second and third young masters and I often suffer from slight headaches, though not serious. Surely this is a side effect of the ’Atonement Curse’ we must endure from practicing Blood Magic! Damn it! I once heard from Prince Moore that Blood Magic Tutors and Saint Chiao could escape the ’Atonement Curse’. It seems not entirely correct—you might escape the curse, but not the intermittent headaches from a pearl suddenly appearing in your brain! Might as well remove my ’Blood Essence Tuodu’ too this time. Although the headache is nearly as inconsequential as a tickle to me, it’s really been annoying me!"

"It annoys you?" Elder Andulan asked in surprise. "It’s just an extra pearl in the head, is it that unbearable to you?"
