Chapter 176 Seeking Death
At the same time, in the palace on the other side.
Saliba, who had just returned home, hurriedly found his father and told him about the deal he and Eros had reached in the Sin Realm.
When the Emperor of the Empire heard the news, there was a trace of surprise in his eyes. He did not expect that his child could actually facilitate the deal, and the conditions were so simple.
Without any hesitation, he immediately summoned several idle family members who were currently staying in the palace and held a small family meeting.
At the meeting, Saliba re-explained the deal with Eros in front of the elders. This time he did not summarize it briefly, but explained the process from beginning to end in detail.
Including Eros threatening him and blackmailing a second-level sealed artifact from him.
After listening to the whole process, a middle-aged man in the conference room looked at Saliba approvingly and said:
"You did a good job. We are the noble Augustine family and have extremely noble blood. There is really no need to gamble with the safety of our family against others."
"It's just a second-level sealed artifact, just give it to me!"
"But it's just this time. If he uses this threat to blackmail my Augustine family next time, you can ignore it."
"If he wants to report it, let him report it. So what if we gamble once? Although our Augustine family is unwilling to take risks, we are definitely not afraid of taking risks."
"If he wants to blackmail my Augustine family in this way, then he really underestimates us."
Saliba saluted in the direction of the middle-aged man and said in a respectful tone:
"My nephew understands!"
At this time, an old man sitting on the other side of the conference room said:
"Let's take out the blood crystal and have a look first. Since he wants to use this in exchange for spiritual marrow, we have to check the quality first before bidding."
Upon hearing this, Saliba quickly took out a small silver square box from himself and placed it on the table in the middle of the conference room.
Looking at the small silver square box on the conference table, the old man stretched out his thin old fingers and tapped the table.
The next second, the small silver square box slid in front of him from the other side of the conference table.
The old man picked up the small silver square box in front of him and lifted the spiritual wall on the outer wall of the small square box.
Immediately, a strong breath of life began to spread from inside the box to the entire conference room in just the blink of an eye.
Everyone in the conference room felt refreshed, as if they were in the spring wilderness.
Feeling this surge of vitality, the old man nodded with satisfaction and said:
"good!"
Immediately he opened the small square box in front of him, took out a blood crystal and placed it in front of his eyes.
Just as he was about to crush the outer layer of crystal and study the inside carefully, Saliba suddenly spoke.
He repeated the precautions that Eros mentioned, although he did not think that a Sequence 7 mutant blood could be very dangerous.
But since Eros mentioned it like this, it would be right for him to repeat it.
After hearing Eros tell them not to study his blood, not to divine its blood, and to be prepared to isolate the pollution before removing the outer layer of crystals, several people on the spot laughed.
One of them shook his head and laughed: "It's just a Sequence 7. Does he think that my Augustine family is as weak as them?"
The old man holding the blood crystal also shook his head, with a contemptuous smile on his lips.
Without hesitation, he directly crushed the outer layer of crystal. At the same time, he also explored his spiritual perception, wanting to learn more about the legendary blood of elves.
However, just for a moment, the old man stood still on the spot, and one branch after another continued to grow out of his body.
The process only took about two or three seconds, and the old man disappeared, replaced by a large tree with a diameter about as thick as a person's arms.
The canopy of the big tree directly broke through the ceilings of the first and second floors and grew under the roof.
As for other people in the conference room, because they did not use their spiritual perception to try to peek at the drop of blood.
Therefore, it is only affected by the pollution carried by the drop of blood itself.
Saliba looked at the scene in front of him with some horror. At this moment, the exposed skin on his face and head was covered with colorful mushrooms.
And looking at the bulge in his clothes, you can imagine that he has more growth under his clothes.
Because the other old men were strong enough, they were not as seriously polluted as Saliba, and the hair on their heads had all turned into weeds.
The only people who were not affected were the two old men sitting at the top of the conference room.
The two of them are the strongest among everyone present. Their strength has reached Sequence 4, entering the extraordinary realm and breaking away from the human category.
It is precisely because of this that they are not affected by the pollution contained in Eros' blood.
The two old men who had reached the extraordinary level were looking at the huge tree that suddenly appeared in front of them with horrified expressions.
With their strength, they didn't even have time to stop it just now.
What is going on? What did Vito's spiritual perception perceive just now?
How could it turn into a tree in an instant without even having time to react?
You must know that Vito is a senior warlock who has been in the advanced sequence for more than 5 years.
Caesar Augustine on the other side touched the green weeds on his head, and his expression became extremely solemn.
He also couldn't believe that the scene in front of him was real. Wasn't this a drop of blood from a low-sequence warlock? Why was there such a serious pollution?
The pollution of blood alone could affect his own sequence 5s.
And peeping at that drop of blood instantly caused a senior sequence 5 to lose control and turn into a tree.
Even if it was alien blood, it shouldn't be like this. They had come into contact with alien blood before. Could it be that the blood of the elves was special?
Or was that guy not of ordinary elf blood?
…
In the Duke of Noth's mansion in Intiles, Eros was lying on a bench in the garden, basking in the winter sun while enjoying Estelle's ear cleaning service.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes as if he had sensed something, glanced at the location of the palace, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Immediately, he shouted in his soul space: "Ariana! Sorry for bothering you!"
As his voice fell, the black little book floating in his soul space shook slightly, and an invisible force spread out.
In the palace, just when the royal family was in a daze, a ticking sound suddenly came from the depths of the palace.
The next second, the pollution on everyone in the conference room was removed, except for the tree.
At the same time, along with the ticking sound, there was also a vicissitudes of life voice in the conference room:
"I just tested it. This is the blood of an ordinary elf. The pollution contained in his blood may be caused by his other experiences."
"As for why Vito was polluted in an instant, maybe he accidentally peeked through the blood and saw the mark left in the blood by a powerful ancestor of this elf!"
Hearing this voice, everyone in the conference room showed respect and enthusiasm.
One of the two extraordinary people said respectfully:
"My lord, do we still need to carry out this transaction?"
"The transaction continues. Okay, let's stop here. This awakening has consumed a lot of my life. I'm afraid I will be dormant for a while next."
The old voice became weaker and weaker until it was completely silent.
Everyone in the conference room stood up and said respectfully in unison:
"We will follow your orders!"
