Chapter 916: Bridging Method

For example, a red dragon bloodline warlock can get some red dragon blood plasma and combine it with other auxiliary materials. After drinking or injecting it, it is possible to strengthen his own warlock bloodline and develop new spells.

This is called "homologous reinforcement".

Generally speaking, the effect of injection is better than oral administration, but it involves "blood rejection reaction" and is more risky.

In case of being unable to survive the blood rejection, it may cause fatal consequences.

There is also a similar idea called "proximal strengthening".

Still taking the red dragon blood warlock as an example, if he failed to get fresh red dragon plasma, but occasionally got some blue dragon plasma.

Although the dragon species are different, they are all real dragons at any rate, and their blood is similar, and it may also strengthen their own blood.

But this kind of "proximal strengthening" has even greater uncertainty.

To put it bluntly, the greater the difference in blood, the greater the possibility of mutating and awakening more new spells, which shows that the upper limit of "near source enhancement" is higher than that of "homologous enhancement".

But there are also disadvantages, the difference in blood is greater, the rejection of blood is also stronger, and the risk is obviously greater.

From "homologous strengthening" and "near-source strengthening", can "heterologous strengthening" be deduced?

Or a red dragon bloodline warlock, if he gets some strange blood, can he use the same method to strengthen himself?

Some people have indeed tried this kind of thinking, but most of them ended up extremely miserable.

If the origins of the bloodlines are completely different, and the differences are too great, the risk of forcible fusion will be even greater. If the fragile flesh and blood cannot withstand such a severe rejection reaction, they will often end up playing with fire and setting themselves on fire.

Except for lunatics, few warlocks dare to try the extremely dangerous "alien source enhancement".

"Warlock", after all, is a mainstream arcane profession with the same long tradition and rich historical accumulation as mage.

Warlock students on university campuses spend most of their class hours learning how to strengthen their own bloodlines. There are so many textbooks and documents that can fill a library. For reference, there is really no need to open your own brains and toss around.

This is where the value of a university education lies.

Take blood injection as an example of the simplest strengthening method. The current mainstream strengthening strategy is called "Bridging Method", which cleverly combines "homologous strengthening" and "near-source strengthening". It can even achieve the purpose of "heterogeneous strengthening".

This method is actually very simple, and the core idea is "asymptotic approximation".

Still take the red dragon blood warlock as an example, the first step is to choose "red dragon blood plasma" and carry out "homologous strengthening".

The next step is to find a hybrid dragon with the blood of a red dragon, such as a mixed blood of red and blue, and collect its plasma to make alchemy potions for "quasi homologous enhancement".

Now, this warlock has dual bloodlines of red dragon and blue dragon in his body.

The third step is to obtain blue dragon plasma and inject it for enhancement. This is also a "quasi-homologous enhancement" and the risk is very small.

So far, through the three-step strengthening, the purpose of "near-source strengthening" has actually been achieved.

Although the process is a bit cumbersome, fortunately, the risks are controllable, and the strength can be improved steadily.

The fourth step is to try to find a hybrid creature with both "blue dragon" and "strange" blood, take its plasma, and prepare an injection.

This is a "near-source enhancement" with a relatively large span, but with the foreshadowing of the previous three steps, its ability to fuse heterogeneous blood has been greatly enhanced. Died of blood rejection.

So far, our warlocks have three bloodlines of red dragon, blue dragon and strange monster.

In the next fifth step, you can directly extract the strange plasma, carry out "near-source strengthening" again, and continue to expand the breadth and depth of your own warlock blood, which will of course awaken more new spells.

So far, after five steps of step-by-step operation, a red dragon blood warlock finally realized the "heterologous strengthening" of "strange blood".

Every step forward is like building a bridge towards an unknown territory, so that you can move forward safely, carefully, as if walking on thin ice, and finally reach the other shore.

This is the "Bridging Method". It doesn't matter if it is a little troublesome. It is "safe and reliable". That's why it can stand the test of time and become the mainstream bloodline strengthening plan that is widely respected by the warlock class.

Of course, this is just a general idea. When the "bridge building method" is actually implemented, many practical problems still need to be solved.

For example, "strange creature with blue dragon bloodline", such a strange creature may not exist in reality. If a warlock needs to use it, they can only try to cultivate one by themselves.

Using high-level transformation spells is a feasible strategy.

Another commonly used method is cross-breeding, weed out failed test subjects, and artificially select hybrid breeds suitable for bloodline enhancement.

The warlock major of the Austrian Law School of Midgard University specializes in breeding courses, making the whole major seem like a "monster museum".

Warlock students are all forced to become little experts in raising monsters, which is really miserable.

If you are really too lazy to raise and breed by yourself, you can go to the "Species Museum" in Fort Donning and order species that meet your needs to strengthen the blood of the warlock.

Of course, the premise is that there is no shortage of money in the pocket.

For example, exotic species such as "blue dragon bloodline strange creature" must not be cheap.

Joan recalled the way warlocks developed their bloodlines. This operation routine looks familiar...

Isn't this exactly the same as the supernatural ability of the transformed object he obtained by injecting himself with the "awakening potion"?

The bloodline spell of a warlock is actually very similar to a supernatural ability.

Since the "Awakening Secret" can be used to activate supernatural abilities, is it also effective for developing the potential of a warlock's blood?

Theoretically speaking, the "Awakening Secret Method" is actually an alternative "homologous strengthening" scheme.

The question is, is this line of thinking feasible in reality?

Joan decided to use Mrs. Josephine as an experimental subject to verify whether her theory works.

Before starting to prepare the "awakening agent", Joan briefly introduced her thoughts to Mrs. Josephine, especially emphasizing the possible rejection reaction after the injection, reminding her to carefully consider the risks before deciding whether to accept the injection.

"Joan, you take out my own blood and then inject it back, it sounds a bit like the popular 'autohemotherapy', it doesn't even count as 'homologous reinforcement', how could it be risky? ?” Madame Josephine asked wonderingly.
