Chapter 76 Assimilation Rate 100%
Under the banyan tree, the quiet air was filled with a faint scent of grass.
Ryan and Pauline stood in front of the ancient banyan tree, with a lush crown and luxuriant branches and leaves, which seemed to be out of tune with everything around it, quiet and sacred.
The banyan tree is famous for its unique heart and sap, which can effectively nourish the elf bloodline and even have unexpected benefits for wizard apprentices to purify their spiritual power.
Pauline stood in front of the tree, with a flash of complex emotions in her eyes. She raised her hand and took out the alchemical equipment from her waist - a ritual dagger and a collector.
"Ryan," Pauline whispered, her eyes focused on the trunk of the banyan tree, "This is a delicate job. You'd better stay alert. I need time."
Ryan nodded, he walked to the tree, gently touched the bark, and felt the strong vitality coming from the trunk.
Pauline began to carefully cut the bark with a dagger, her movements gentle and precise. As she moved, drops of crystal sap slowly seeped out and dripped into the collector she had prepared in her hand.
Each drop of sap exuded a charming luster, and a slight green glow danced in her palm.
"These sap does not have much effect on the elven bloodline." Pauline explained to Ryan while operating, "But for you, a blood clan warlock, although it will not directly enhance magic power, it can stabilize emotions and magic flow, and relieve some overly intense blood diseases."
Ryan nodded. Although he was prepared in his heart, he couldn't help but feel an indescribable desire when he saw the green banyan sap dripping into the vessel.
He gently swallowed three doses of sap in one gulp, and the slightly cool feeling quickly spread when the liquid entered his throat. The fresh breath seemed to fill every inch of his blood vessels and gradually penetrated into every cell in his body.
Ryan closed his eyes and felt a warm force flowing in his body. In an instant, his blood seemed to become more gentle, and his restless emotions slowly subsided.
He realized that his blood had begun to sense the power of the sap, and as he slowly took the sap, the bloodthirsty desire in his heart quietly subsided.
Pauline seemed to notice his change and frowned slightly: "Ryan, do you feel something?"
Ryan did not answer immediately, but closed his eyes and took a deep breath. He could feel that the blood in his body was calming down.
He finally raised his head and looked at Pauline, "It really helped me solve the problem and stabilize my blood."
At the same time, his body also underwent subtle changes. He could feel that the chaos and fluctuations in his blood were dissipating, and his heart gradually calmed down. The bloody desire that was originally suppressed was no longer so turbulent and difficult to control.
Ryan took a deep breath and felt that his body was much more relaxed, as if he was freed from some invisible shackles.
He opened his eyes and looked at Pauline, with a little more joy in his eyes.
"The effect of the tree sap is indeed extraordinary. My blood disease has been relieved, and the impulse of blood lust has been significantly reduced."
Pauline saw this and a relaxed smile appeared on her face, "This is the power of the green banyan tree sap. It can stabilize the fluctuations of blood, and it may help you more than I expected."
Ryan nodded, feeling that his blood would never get out of control because of that primitive impulse again.
"Although I still feel the existence of blood lust, it is no longer so strong. Perhaps, this can allow me to better control my power."
He paused slightly and looked into Pauline's eyes: "However, this method will not last long. I must find a more lasting solution."
Pauline knew Ryan's concerns and nodded: "I will find it, Ryan. Now that you have controlled your emotions, the next road will be easier to go."
Although the blood emotions in Ryan's body have been temporarily relieved, he knows that this is not a long-term solution. The effect of the green banyan tree sap is only temporary, and drinking more will not fundamentally solve the emotional fluctuations and deep impulses of the blood.
Only by completely controlling the blood of the vampires can it be done, or by equipping an item that can bring other bloods and reconcile it.
Pauline whispered: "No matter how much tree sap there is, it can't increase the concentration of my blood."
Ryan stared at her, and his heart was vaguely clear. Pauline's eyes were no longer gentle, but with a kind of determination.
He couldn't help but take a few steps forward and asked softly: "What are you going to do, Pauline?"
She turned slowly, with a touch of complex emotions in her eyes, "The heart of the green banyan tree can increase the concentration of the elf blood and push its potential to the extreme.
Only by taking out the heart of the tree like Uncle Daniel can I truly control my blood and no longer be bound by the emotional instinct that is naturally friendly."
She didn't hesitate and raised her hand. The light on the dagger shone brightly and chopped at the trunk of the green banyan tree like a sharp blade. The huge tree body shook violently, and with a dull roar, the bark cracked, and the cracks spread around, and the light of the heart of the tree was faintly visible through the cracks.
As Pauline's spell continued to increase in power, the tree's heart was exposed, as if announcing the end of the banyan tree's life.
Ryan felt the strong life fluctuations, and he knew that Pauline had no way back at this moment.
"Okay, Ryan."
Pauline looked at him, with a little more relief in her eyes, "The tree's heart has been taken. My bloodline will be sublimated because of it."
Ryan was silent for a moment, then nodded slowly: "You just did what you should do, Pauline."
Pauline was the only one left in her family, and it was meaningless to guard the green banyan tree. It would be better to squeeze out its function at once.
After taking away some precious materials in the library, the two left here.
...
After returning to the Kingdom of Wiki, Ryan immediately dealt with the affairs at hand.
Tilly had collected a large amount of blood from knights and wizard apprentices as required by Ryan, and every drop was full of power.
Ryan stood in his laboratory, the magic circle in front of him flashed a faint light, and he began to slowly absorb the essence of these bloods.
The assimilation rate of [Bloodline Essence] kept jumping and rising, and Ryan's perception began to change, and the originally suppressed power in his body quietly awakened.
The speed of blood flow accelerated, and his body seemed to be filled with more powerful magic and perception, and his mental power also surged like a tide.
This surge of power made him almost unable to control himself, and the greedy impulse of blood burned like a raging fire.
But Ryan was not swallowed by this power. He took a deep breath, suppressed the desire that almost swallowed him, concentrated his mind, and continued to absorb more blood.
Finally, with the complete absorption of the last drop of blood, the assimilation rate reached 100%, and Ryan felt that a complete transformation was taking place.
He felt the surging power in his body, and his heart was clear. Although the bloodthirsty desire that was once hidden deep in his body still existed, he was able to control it and make it a part of the power instead of a restraint.
Ryan opened his eyes, and those eyes had turned blood red, full of endless majesty and calmness, and his body exuded a strong breath.
"The feeling of being full of power!"
Ryan didn't know the gap between him and the second-level wizard in strength, but it should be no problem to survive under the second-level wizard.
