Chapter 991 Bloodline Strengthening (Ⅰ)
In a blink of an eye, Joan's thoughts continued to extend, and his gaze was on the faces of Holden and Hailar, cruising back and forth, and his eyes gradually became hot.
Holden was discussing with his sister about signing up for an expedition internship, so he didn't notice the change in Joan's eyes.
However, Hailaer noticed it sensitively, put down the ice cream bucket he was holding in his arms, and leaned towards him, his cheeks were slightly flushed, and there was a little resentment in his eyes.
"Your eyes are so strange! You stare at me like a hungry wolf!"
Joan just thought of a brilliant idea, and was so excited that he couldn't hold it back. He subconsciously held the girl's slender hand tightly, and asked urgently, "Haila, can you promise me something?"
Hailaer didn't understand what he meant, but his right hand was completely wrapped between his palms, and the body temperature transmitted through the fingertips made her heart beat faster, and her mind was confused for a while, just so ignorant nodded.
Audrey noticed the abnormal behavior of Joan and Hylar, her sapphire-like eyes narrowed into slits, as if observing the prey in secret, a strange smile appeared on the corner of her lips, and she said to her younger brother, "Do you dare to bet with me? No matter what request Joan makes now, Hailaer will not refuse."
"What about you?" Holden asked with a smile, "If you were Hailar, would you refuse?"
Audrey glared at him angrily, but did not give a positive answer.
The ridicule of the siblings brought Hailaer back to his senses, and he quickly withdrew the hand that was tightly held by Joan, and asked him with a blushing face, "Is there anything I can do to help you, with such a serious expression, it's scary... "
Hailaer's accusation made Joan realize her gaffe just now, and quickly apologized to her, and explained her thoughts by the way.
"I've been researching the bloodline power of a warlock recently, and found a special method that can strengthen the bloodline power, and even predict which spells a warlock may awaken in the future."
"It occurred to me just now that not only warlocks rely on bloodlines to cast spells, but most spontaneous arcane spellcasters also need to constantly discover and strengthen their own bloodlines, including 'magic warriors' and 'bards'. "
"I understand!" Hailaer was impatiently excited, and before Joan finished speaking, he rushed to ask: "You want to test this method on me and Holden, don't you?"
"Yes, I really want to ask you for help."
"Joan, is your method safe?" Audrey asked for her younger brother.
"I dare not say it is absolutely safe, at least so far, no negative consequences have been observed."
Joan replied confidently.
"Joan, does the method you invented belong to 'homologous strengthening' or 'near-source strengthening'?"
Holden's questions were obviously more professional than his sister's.
"The enhancement material is your own blood, which is reinjected into the body after enchantment, which is a standard 'homologous enhancement'." Qiao An explained.
"Then there's no problem!" Holden smiled relievedly, "'Homologous Strengthening', at worst, has no strengthening effect, and there is not much risk."
"Joan, when can you help us strengthen our bloodline?" Hailar asked impatiently.
"I can do it anytime, as long as you have two or three hours to spare."
"Then what are you waiting for? Anyway, we are all full, so hurry back to school and rent a laboratory to try!"
Hailar and Holden, how could they even think about eating at the moment? They wished that Joan would help them strengthen their bloodline immediately.
The four hurriedly left the restaurant, returned to school, and went straight to the underground testing ground of the Austrian Law School.
Qiao An rented a laboratory with ease, and Hailar and Zion siblings followed him into the laboratory in the name of assistants.
"Joan, I'm not an arcane spellcaster, and I'm just here to join in the fun. If there are chores that I can do, just ask, don't leave me alone." Audrey said.
Joan originally planned to summon an "invisible servant" to come out to help, but since Audrey offered to help, he was not polite.
He opened the suitcase containing commonly used experimental instruments, took out a sterilized needle and handed it to her.
"Take Hailaer to the next room and draw a tube of blood, I will help."
"Okay." Audrey took Hyrule to draw blood.
Joan asked Holden to stay in the office, first drew a tube of blood for him, and injected several test tubes separately for later use.
Joan first took out some blood plasma for testing, and compared the blood color bands afterwards, and found that Holden was indeed a half-dragon race as he had suspected before.
The test results also showed that Holden was half of the blood of the "Bronze Dragon".
The red copper dragon is one of the five mainstream metal dragons.
Different from the more common red, blue, green, black, and white five-color evil dragons, the five metal dragons of gold, silver, bronze, red copper, and brass are all standard kind creatures.
After the end of the "Dragon Age" in the ancient era, metal dragons were rarely seen in the world of Vales. It is said that the entire metal dragon clan collectively migrated to a distant crystal wall system called "Beifeng Tianyu", and has been far away from the human world ever since.
Joan asked Holden about the legend of the metal dragon clan and "Beifeng Tianyu", but Holden shrugged and said frankly that he didn't know more than him.
"Since I can remember, I have lived in the human world, and I know almost nothing about dragons."
"The only real dragon I've ever seen in my life is my unreliable mother."
"Occasionally, when my mother thinks of me, she will come back to look for me. After visiting, I don't know where to fly to play."
Seemingly aware of the sympathy in Joan's eyes, Mr. Poet laughed.
"Do you think I'm pitiful?"
"To be honest, like my mother, I am a heartless optimist who doesn't know what to worry about. No matter what others think, I am happy every day anyway, and I don't need sympathy."
Joan believes that Holden is not forced to smile.
The half-human, half-dragon monster, coupled with the discriminated "illegitimate child" status, will inevitably become cynical if imposed on others.
Holden, however, was different.
He is the child of the Red Copper Dragon, who inherited his mother's optimistic and cheerful nature. No amount of suffering can take away the smile on his face.
Copper dragons are a bit like "dwarfs" or "halflings" in the metal dragon family. They are lively and humorous in nature, and love pranks. They always want to have fun when they have nothing to do. There is no "sorrow" in their dictionary. The only thing they are afraid of It's just "boring".
Holden's kindness, humor and sense of justice fully reflect the personality of the copper dragon.
Perhaps only people with this kind of personality can maintain an optimistic attitude in a society and family that are not friendly to them. No matter how much discrimination and stares they receive, they are still the ones who like to make friends and share happiness with them sincerely. Sunshine Boy.
