Mirror Dagger, Silver Comb, Bloodline, White Stone Fortress

The hair Ronan gave to Porby was divided into three parts and exchanged with three Third Level Wizard inside the tower.

The first Third Level Wizard brought Ronan a transparent object about half the size of a fist through Porby. It felt soft to the touch, like some kind of gel.

This is the essence of the brain fluid of a monster called the Mind-Devouring Monster. Unlike ordinary monsters, these monsters are born with exceptionally strong mental power and can even comprehend some mind-based and curse-based spells.

Their brain fluid essence can help low-level wizards improve their mental cultivation. The method of use is to ignite it during each meditation. After being treated with special magic potion, such a small piece of gel can burn for an entire summer.

Ronan hasn't tried it out yet, but once he advances to level two, he'll definitely find it useful; it's a resource he's quite satisfied with.

The second item was a small bottle of the Moon-Eating Magic Whale. The Moon-Eating Magic Whale is a powerful magical beast that exists only in the far western ocean. It has a long lifespan and an extremely high growth potential. It is said that some people have even seen Moon-Eating Magic Whale that are as large as a small piece of land, and that a wizard kingdom exists on its back.

Bennigo had mentioned to Ronan more than once that the blood of any powerful creature could help the growth of the Saint Blood Tree. So when the Third Level Wizard presented a list for Ronan to choose from, he selected the bottle of Moon-Eating Magic Whale's essence blood after failing to find any items that would directly help improve his strength.

I don't know where the other party got this stuff from, it must have been around for a long time, and after many extractions and studies, it has been diluted beyond recognition.

However, considering that even the flawless blood essence of the Moon-Eating Magic Whale wouldn't fall into Ronan's hands, exchanging it for a few strands of hair is already a fairly worthwhile deal.

Compared to what the first two Third Level Wizard gave him, the last one was quite substantial, directly having Porby hand over a full two thousand High-Level Magic Stone to Ronan.

When this number was presented to Ronan, he truly realized just how attractive the so-called "Ancient Giant Demon bloodline" flowing through his veins was to these Third Level Wizards.

The vast majority of bloodlines are the product of ancient wizards' experiments. Some developed powerful traits through self-discovery and successfully preserved these traits from generation to generation.

Some are achieved through Bloodline Transplant. For example, Ronan's "Ancient Giant Demon Bloodline" is considered by the Third Level Wizard of the Seventh Magic Ring to be an example of an ancient wizard successfully transplanting Ancient Giant Demon blood.

They attempted to analyze the principles behind this "Bloodline Transplant technology" from Ronan's case, in order to recreate the power and glory of the ancient wizard.

This behavior is not much different from trying to reverse the Mirror Garden space and the Spell Inheritance through runes; both are close to wishful thinking, but many wizards are still pursuing them with fervor.

According to Kosti, there are no more than five wizards in the entire Silver Magic Ring who possess ancient bloodlines, including himself. Moreover, the bloodlines of the other four are far less powerful than his, enabling them to contend with the late-stage level two wizards even at the late-stage level one.

Using the power of bloodline has not caused any side effects, nor has it caused him any trouble in his daily life or cultivation.

This means that even in the relatively stable Silver Magic Ring, if he were still wandering alone, it wouldn't be impossible for him to be captured and used as a lab rat by some evil wizards with extreme personalities after his bloodline talent was exposed.

"Bloodline... what exactly is bloodline?"

Ronan looked at the small bottle containing the blood of the Moon-Eating Magic Whale in his hand and murmured to himself.

No one would have guessed that he wasn't an ancient bloodline holder at all. His "Demonification" form was the result of his physical body becoming extremely powerful. But if he were to say this, even fewer people would believe him. No wizard would think that a human body could be strengthened to that extent without physical modification.

His gaze fell on the last two items, and a sense of anticipation rose in Ronan's heart.

He was the first to pick up the dagger on the table.

The material of this dagger is very similar to the mirror material of the second-tier magical artifact mirror in the hands of the First Magic Ring Ponytail Witch, Fu Ling. It has a slightly metallic feel when held in the hand, but it feels like it is constantly flowing, as if the mirror is constantly refracting the light in the air.

The dagger is enchanted with only one rune, which is quite mysterious and completely different from the core rune in the Mirror Magical Item. Its grade is estimated to be around the second tier.

Ronan thought for a moment, then released his mental energy to slightly activate the rune's effect.

After the rune was activated, the dagger's mirror-like blade flashed with light, and a faint spatial energy fluctuation emanated from it.

Ronan gripped the dagger and tried to lightly slice through the air in front of him. There was no reaction.

So he pointed the tip of the knife at a quill pen on the table.

Before making the cut, Ronan had mentally prepared himself for whatever might happen.

He considered that the quill pen could break off silently, possibly also affecting the table underneath it, or even the floor below.

"Pop—"

The gleaming silver dagger landed lightly on the quill pen, and with a soft, crisp sound, the pen vanished into thin air.

Immediately following was a "thud—"

Ronan heard the sound of something falling to the ground behind him.

He turned his head and saw a quill pen rolling slightly and perfectly intact on the floor behind him before slowly coming to a stop.

"Small-scale spatial teleportation?"

Ronan blinked, never expecting this outcome.

He then tested it twice with other objects, and the result was that the enchantment inside the mirror-shaped dagger was indeed a small spatial teleportation rune.

It can teleport anything it hits.

Furthermore, the size of the teleported object and the distance of each teleportation seem to be related to the intensity of the mental energy injected by the user, as well as the rune channeling time.

Ronan looked at the dagger in his hand, a look of utter disbelief on his face.

He put down the dagger and picked up another magical implement Silver Comb.

The runes enchanted inside the exquisite Silver Comb were also something Ronan had never seen before. Their mystery was similar to that of the runes inside the dagger, but the two were completely different, ruling out the possibility that they were also spatial teleportation runes.

Given the results of his previous experiment with the dagger, Ronan naturally couldn't treat this magical Silver Comb as a normal comb.

Slightly activating the runes within, a faint spatial energy fluctuation was emitted. Ronan, holding the Silver Comb, as usual, first touched the air.

As Ronan combed the comb, he watched in disbelief as several pale silver rays of light shot out from the Silver Comb in his hand. The silver light shot out and silently cut several smooth "slits" in the air, almost revealing the blackness behind the slits.

Immediately afterward, the crystal floor-to-ceiling window directly opposite Ronan shattered, and the wind outside the tower rushed in, blowing Ronan's pure white hair that was scattered at his temples. Ronan stared at the Silver Comb in his hand and the dagger on the table, remaining silent for a long time.

The dagger-like object is actually a small teleportation device, and the comb-like object is a weapon for attacking enemies. So, "What's the point?"

Ronan really wanted to ask the owner of that Mysterious Garden a question right now.

Can't we just give something the function it's supposed to have?

"Is this the twisted sense of humor of powerful wizards?"

Ronan suppressed his speechlessness, his interest quickly piqued by the runes within the two magical artifacts.

In any case, the effects of these two magical implements met his expectations.

Whether it's spatial teleportation or spatial magic attacks formed from spatial energy, if they can be deciphered or utilized, their benefits to him will be immense.

"If either of these two runes were integrated into my existing spell system, my combat power would undergo a qualitative leap..."

Ronan's eyes gleamed with a strange light. The brain region he had developed after taking six bottles of "Murphetira's Kiss" was his reliance, and he had always been very interested in runic literature.

"The [Mirrorlight] rune still has much room for improvement and upgrades, and research on the runes for the Myriad Treasure Orb and the Mirror Magical Item cannot be neglected. We'll be quite busy from now on."

Ronan silently made plans for himself.

His next task is to break through to become a level two wizard.

Kosti had said she would help him prepare the conditions required for promotion to level two.

This includes the most important Crystallization Array, followed by a potion that increases the success rate of ascension and helps to crystallize spiritual energy more easily.

There are also solidification potions used after promotion to solidify the Soul Rune onto the Spiritual Power Crystal, and soul Soul Power replenishment potions to replenish the Soul Power consumed. If Ronan were to prepare all these things on his own, even with a large supply of magic stones, it would take at least half a year.

The benefits of having Sixth Ring status and being favored by the ring master became apparent at this time, saving him a great deal of time and energy.

Then came the further enhancement of several trump cards of magic. [Energy Missile-Particle Torrent] was not far from truly comprehending One Segment Magic Domain Resonance.

If we use the data from the Character Panel to estimate, Ronan estimates that Master Level proficiency of 500 points or more is equivalent to the One Segment Magic Domain Resonance, and he is already very close to that target value.

There are even more than one spells that are very close to this value!

If all the spells and skills he currently possesses that have evolved into Extraordinary Magic Domain could reach the One Segment Magic Domain Resonance, combined with the amplification effect of the [Mirrorlight] rune, Ronan couldn't imagine how high his strength would rise... Furthermore, the anchor spell for constructing the Ice Cold Domain, the zero-tier advanced [Ice Blade], has reached Expert Level proficiency. If he could also advance this spell to Master Level and evolve it into Extraordinary Magic Domain, the power of the Ice Cold Domain would be further enhanced.

As Ronan was thinking about his daily training for the [[Immaculate Body]], he suddenly heard the sound of flapping wings.

Looking up, I saw a brightly Colorful Conch Parrot flapping its wings and flying in through the broken French window. It landed on the ground and gracefully transformed into a red-haired young man with a big nose.

"So you and Clemens share the same hobby: enjoying the breeze with the windows wide open during the day."

"Is there something you need, Porby?"

Ronan gathered the things on the table and looked at Porby, asking him a question.

Porby is similar to Biondini, the Silver Giant Bat; both were originally the souls of wizards now inhabiting another body.

It is said that Porby was a powerful illusion wizard in his lifetime, and his soul was taken back by the previous Ring Lord after his physical body was destroyed.

As for the previous ringmaster, Ronan also learned a thing or two from Porby.

The previous Ring Master was Kosti's brother, who was incredibly powerful and had even advanced to the Level Four Dawn. When he was in the Arcane Circle, the Seventh Magic Ring was not yet ranked seventh.

He later went on a journey and completely lost contact with the Arcane Circle; nearly a hundred years have passed... "The Ring Lord invites you up to discuss your advancement to Second-Level Wizard."

Porby told Ronan with a grin that he had always played the role of the ringmaster's confidant in the Arcane Circle.

"Okay, I understand."

Ronan nodded, stood up, briefly told the Brass Door Lock Serui, to find someone to repair the window, and then followed Porby all the way to the top of the tower.

As before, Kosti seemed to be always busy.

However, this time she was standing on the lab bench at the other end of the long table, and it seemed that she was studying the blood that she had taken from Ronan.

Damien, you've come.

Sensing Ronan's arrival, Kosti stopped her research, gently raised her hand, and her powerful mental energy instantly calmed all the chaotic atmosphere and energy fluctuations in the room.

Today, she wore a pair of silver-rimmed Crystal Glasses, making her look much more mature and intellectual.

"Your bloodline is so mysterious that it's beyond comprehension. Apart from extracting traces of Moonlight Elf bloodline components, I haven't found any trace of the ancient White-Haired Giant Demon."

The first thing Kosti said to Ronan was a soft sigh.

Although analyzing bloodlines is an extremely difficult task, the fact that they gained absolutely nothing clearly left Kosti feeling somewhat exhausted.

Ronan was somewhat surprised; he hadn't expected that he would still have elven blood in his body.

Is this why he's grown more and more handsome after training his body? He subconsciously touched his cheek.

"Alright, let's get back to the main topic."

Kosti gently removed her Crystal Glasses from the bridge of her nose, her blue-violet eyes fixed on Ronan, and said seriously, "I have prepared all the materials you need for your advancement to level two."

As she spoke, Kosti raised her hand and gently handed over a silver-edged black cloth bag that emitted faint spatial energy fluctuations.

"However, before you prepare to advance to level two, I suggest you make a trip to White Stone Fortress first..."

"White Stone Fortress?"

Ronan took the bag, his eyes suddenly flashing, as if he had just made a connection to something.

"Right."

Kosti explained, "White Stone Fortress is a small gathering place for grey-robed wizards, but unlike ordinary Wizard Land, the wizarding forces in White Stone Fortress exist in the form of families. White Stone Fortress is covered in ice and snow all year round, and the wizards living there mainly practice ice magic."

The major wizarding families of White Stone Fortress each possess a unique set of Rune Array inheritances that can extract certain characteristics from the bloodlines of ice-type magical beasts, thereby enhancing a wizard's talent and abilities in ice-type magic.

"Bloodline Transplant?!"

Ronan was surprised. "They've already figured it out?"

Kosti shook her head. "It's not what you think. This Bloodline Transplant is only temporary. The transplanted characteristics will gradually weaken over time. Not only can it only work on ice-type magical beasts, but each wizard can only have it transplanted once in their lifetime."

"No wonder..."

Ronan was relieved. If it were truly the perfect Bloodline Transplant technique he had imagined, the so-called White Stone Fortress would probably have ceased to exist long ago.

It turns out to be a one-time, consumable Bloodline Transplant technique. It's really quite impractical.

"Four months from now, the core Secret Realm Space of the Mirror Garden will officially open, and you will inevitably represent the Arcane Circle in this exploration."

Although the Bloodline Transplant technology of White Stone Fortress has significant limitations, it can still provide a certain boost to your strength in the short term, which is just in time for this exploration trial."

Kosti looked at Ronan and whispered, "Things will be completely different once we enter the Mirror Garden."

Then you will face top wizarding geniuses from different wizarding forces, possibly even more powerful than the Arcane Circle. Damien, your talent is excellent, and your strength is quite good among those of the same level.

However, you lack the time and experience to accumulate knowledge and experience, and there is still a significant gap between you and those truly top-tier wizarding geniuses from major powers.

I hope you will have more ability to protect yourself.
