Chapter 888 Warlock Bloodline (Ⅰ)

After thinking about it, Joan remembered that when she was hunting Peridon on the top of Bailun Mountain, she had met the Countess once, and she was also grateful to her for presenting a famous card.

At that time, Mrs. Josephine said that they were welcome to attend the social salon at her home, the elite students of Midgard University.

Regardless of whether Mrs. Josephine's words are out of politeness or a sincere invitation, theoretically, Joan can rely on this name card in her hand to sneak into the banquet hosted by Mrs. Josephine without being thrown away by the guards. come out.

The question is, what can a man with severe social disabilities like him do if he manages to sneak into Mrs. Josephine's social circle?

If you expect people like him to open up the situation in the social arena of high society and win the appreciation of the Countess, it is better to expect a rooster to lay eggs!

Joan stood there in a daze for a long time, then suddenly came back to his senses, and found that Professor Moriarty had already walked out of the restaurant, and hurriedly chased after him.

"Tutor! Tutor! You let me find a way to get to know Mrs. Josephine. It's too difficult. Why don't you help me make a connection?"

"I can help you with other things, but this is the only thing that needs to be discussed!"

Professor Moriarty flatly refused without looking back.

Qiao An was deeply shocked, and unwillingly chased after him, grabbed the mentor's sleeve, and begged in an almost coquettish tone.

"Why not? Aren't you Mrs. Josephine's ex-boyfriend? Say something for me, it's not that difficult!"

Professor Moriarty stopped, sighed, and turned back to stroke his head.

"My good student, you are so silly and cute! Think about it, Josephine invited me to her engagement ceremony, and it was obvious that she was humiliating me publicly. You asked me to beg her, isn't it the face of your tutor? , and the dignity of being a man, in your eyes, is it that worthless?"

Joan's body trembled when he heard the words, and his face quickly dimmed.

"I'm sorry, mentor... I shouldn't have made such an excessive request."

Professor Moriarty forced a smile and was about to comfort him when Joan turned around and walked away.

Looking at the lonely back of the student, the professor showed a look of unbearable, but he didn't say anything more after all.

...

Joan returned to the bedroom, closed the door, and threw herself on the sofa, feeling very depressed.

The reason why he was in a bad mood was not because of the setbacks in the research on "Blood of Worms", but mainly because of self-blame.

Before that, Joan had always thought that her mentor came to her ex-girlfriend's engagement ceremony with a normal heart, and treated her as an ordinary friend.

But now he knows he was wrong.

Two people who once loved each other will inevitably leave scars that cannot be healed after breaking up, and it is difficult to get along as "ordinary friends" calmly.

Mrs. Josephine sent an invitation to Professor Moriarty, and she was indeed suspected of deliberately provoking her ex-boyfriend. Whether it was out of politeness or the need to maintain her self-esteem, Professor Moriarty had no choice but to bite the bullet and come to this doomed event. An engagement ceremony that would put him in an embarrassing position.

Under such circumstances, a man with strong self-esteem is unlikely to take the initiative to ask his soon-to-be-engaged ex-girlfriend for help. This is human nature.

Qiao An has long known that her biggest flaw is her lack of understanding of the world.

Today's incident once again verified this point, proving that he lacks sympathy and understanding for others, otherwise he would not be willful enough to make such excessive requests to his mentor.

Just as Joan blamed himself silently, there was a knock on the door.

He quickly jumped up from the sofa, hesitantly shouted: "Please come in."

The door of the room opened, and the butler of the holiday villa walked in holding a plate of sliced ​​red watermelons.

"Master Vader, this is what Master Moriarty asked me to bring to you."

Qiao An was stunned for a moment, barely restraining the complicated emotions in his heart, and asked the old housekeeper, "Is there anything else the teacher wants you to tell me?"

The old butler smiled and nodded.

"Master asked me to persuade you to calm down, and said that he would take you to the ball held by Mrs. Josephine tomorrow night."

"Oh...Okay, I see." Joan scratched his head embarrassingly, "Please tell the tutor for me, just say that I... thank him very much for his arrangement."

The old butler nodded, put down the fruit plate and left.

Joan picked up a piece of melon and gnawed it gratefully.

The intention of the words that the tutor custodian brought to himself is obvious.

Taking him to tomorrow's ball is equivalent to agreeing to introduce Mrs. Josephine to him.

Although Joann was not sure about convincing Mrs. Josephine to assist her in the research of "Blood Transformation Bloodline", having this opportunity to meet and talk was much better than having no access.

So he is very grateful to his mentor for his help, and he is also looking forward to the dance party tomorrow night.

For him who has always hated social activities, this is really an unprecedented anomaly.

While eating melons, Joan was thinking about how to seize the opportunity tomorrow night to introduce her research project to Mrs. Josephine, and the haze in her heart gradually dissipated.

Eating the sweet and delicious watermelon, not only Joan's mood improved greatly, but inspiration also emerged.

As the instructor reminded, after being infected with the worming virus, the mutation of one's body is actually equivalent to obtaining an additional supernatural blood.

Each supernatural bloodline corresponds to a warlock genealogy.

Having multiple supernatural bloodlines means greater warlock potential.

"Insectization disease" gave Joan the "insectization bloodline", plus the already existing "strange bloodline", as well as dual warlock bloodlines, if not fully utilized, it would be a bit of a waste.

Of course, Joan has already embarked on the path of "Mage". If he works as a "Warlock" part-time, he will inevitably distract his energy and slow down his progress in the mage profession, which may not be a wise move.

On the other hand, when Joann took the entrance exam at Leiden College, the reason why he didn't choose his more talented career as a warlock was that he was worried that taking this path might cause the strange blood in his body to lose control and become a magician. Become a dehumanized monster.

Not long ago, she met Ms. Betty, who also has the "Different Eye Seal", and learned about the inside story of the "Brotherhood of Our Lady" through the introduction of her mentor. Joan's concerns about her "strange blood" have further deepened. is a hidden danger.

For the sake of safety, Joan didn't want to take the path of "strange warlock".

So after excluding the "strange bloodline", what about the remaining "wormy bloodline"?

After thinking about it, Joan felt that the "worm-like bloodline" was not like his "strange bloodline". Behind it was a lot of disturbing mysteries such as the "sacred seal" and "the Holy Mother", and even involved the revenge of killing his father. The source is clear, the risk is controllable, and it can still be studied.

After setting such a tone, Joan's thoughts suddenly became clear.
