Bloodline of the Wizard-Chapter 238 - 128 "Extreme Freeze Soldier", The Attempt at Magic Domain Fusion
Chapter 238: Chapter 128 "Extreme Freeze Soldier", The Attempt at Magic Domain Fusion
Before coming to White Stone Castle, Ronan had always assumed that so-called "Talent Transplant" was a highly confidential technique, firmly controlled by the major Wizard Families of the White Stone Castle. Ordinary people who wanted to obtain it had to pay a great price or had to have the prestige of a Level 3 Wizard like Kosti.
To his surprise, from what a brown-haired middle-aged man revealed, "Talent Transplant Technology" was indeed firmly in the hands of several major Wizard Families, but any wizard who came to White Stone Castle, as long as they could pay the price in Magic Stones, could undergo a "Talent Transplant."
Almost every year, a large number of wizards specializing in Ice type would come to White Stone Castle for this purpose. The process of "Talent Transplant" had already become a well-established and mature "service chain" under the operation of the major Wizard Families of White Stone Castle. frёeωebɳovel.com
The so-called letter of introduction that Ronan held in his hand was utterly superfluous, something that could be had or not.
"...However, my lord has arrived at an inopportune time. During this season, most Ice type Magic Beasts suitable for Talent Transplant in White Stone Ridge are hibernating, and each family has few transplant quotas available to offer. I need to inquire if there are any vacancies..."
The brown-haired middle-aged man added.
Ronan gave him a glance and asked indifferently, "What’s your name?"
"Barisha. Ababerk."
The middle-aged man quickly answered.
Ronan casually tossed him an Intermediate Magic Stone and said, "Make it quick; I do not wish to wait too long."
The middle-aged man named Barisha caught the Magic Stone given by Ronan with a look of joy and nodded quickly, "Rest assured, my lord, you will not have to wait too long."
With that, he hurriedly left.
Indeed, he did not make Ronan wait long.
Ronan initially thought it would take at least a few days, but it only took the time it took to drink two cups of hot tea at the tavern for Barisha to return.
Barisha handed Ronan several sheets of neatly ironed leather paper, which had beautiful handwriting clearly listing some information.
"...Our Ababerk family currently only has one Second-tier slot left, the Blue Clawed Griffin, while for the First Rank, there are still the Six-legged Ice Salamander, the Frost Wolf and the Alan Ice Bat..."
Ronan listened to Barisha’s introduction while flipping through the content on the leather papers.
Different Magical Beasts that Barisha introduced represented different types of talents that could be acquired through Talent Transplant Technology.
After looking through everything, Ronan found these so-called talents were essentially "Instant Spell" — instantly casting the Ice Magic that the corresponding bloodline’s beast is most adept at.
Basically, different types of talents are just the differences in the Ice Magic that can be cast instantly.
For example, if he transplanted the talent of a Six-legged Ice Salamander, he could instantly cast an Ice Frost Torrent comparable to First Rank Magic.
The talent of the Frost Wolf is to instantly cast "Ice Bomb."
The Alan Ice Bat...
Of course, there is one characteristic of talent that can be obtained by transplanting any Magic Beast, which is to improve a wizard’s affinity with Ice Energy Particles to some extent.
That is to say, if Ronan completes the transplant, the "No Attribute Energy Affinity" behind his [Talent] may very likely become "Ice Attribute Energy Affinity."
Once the transplanted talent’s characteristics are exhausted, it will return to the starting point.
The leather paper also specifically pointed out that this technology could cause certain side effects, namely, whether the transplant is successful or not, it will cause a certain degree of contamination to spiritual power and soul power...
Having read all the content on the leather paper, Ronan’s brows furrowed slightly.
Expectations are full of fantasy, but reality is full of harsh truths.
White Stone Castle’s "Ice Talent Transplant Technology" didn’t significantly enhance strength, not to mention all sorts of restrictions and side effects. Ronan almost had the idea to give up on the transplant then and there.
But considering that although the effects of this talent might be mediocre, if he could cast an additional Ice Magic spell instantly, it would add one more, or possibly two more, Magic Anchors to the [Frozen Soil] Seal, and thus be a significant enhancement to the Domain’s power.
The contamination of spiritual and soul power was troublesome, but he could also find a way to resolve it afterward.
With the Mirror Garden Secret Realm about to open, a temporary enhancement of combat power was also good, and both Kosti and Benny had suggested this to him...
Ronan pondered for a moment, then finally decided to give it a try.
However, since he decided to transplant talent, he naturally wanted to choose the best option.
Ronan outright excluded First Rank Magical Beasts and the only choice available for a Second-tier Magical Beast — the Blue Clawed Griffin — was a Dual-element Magical Beast with a mix of ice and wind, and its innate spell was a Mixed Dual-element Magic, which could not serve as an anchor point for the [Frozen Soil] Domain.
"Are there really no other options for Second-tier Magical Beasts?"
Ronan put down the leather paper and asked Barisha.
The latter shook his head, "This season, only Blue Clawed Griffins can be captured on White Stone Ridge.
If the lord is not in a hurry, you can wait for three months. After three months, there will be more choices for Second-tier Magical Beasts..."
Ronan definitely could not wait three months.
Ronan took out an Advanced Magic Stone and placed it in front of Barisha, speaking flatly, "I believe you have a way, help me inquire about the situation with other families..."
Barisha quickly picked up the Magic Stone that Ronan had placed on the table and tucked it into his chest, glanced around, then leaned in close to Ronan, whispering, "The situation with other families is similar to ours. But I can help the lord inquire about a few individual wizards..."
"Individual wizards also have access to this kind of technology?"
Ronan was surprised.
Barisha explained, "The core knowledge of ’Talent Transplant’ was originally shared by all Wizard Families of White Stone Castle.
Afterwards, some families declined, dwindled, leaving only one or two people residing in White Stone Castle."
