An expression of fear imdiately appeared on Wizard Santos's face. In his anger just now, he had almost forgotten that he was on soone else's territory.
The Plutarch family controlled at least the White Wizard Association of the entire wizard land of the Land of Six Towers.
At the sa ti, the rest of the potion masters could only choose to leave the White Dragon Tower.
However, they were not as angry as Wizard Santos. After all, most of them had made plenty of profits during this trip to the Land of Six Towers.
The Land of Six Towers was particularly oppressive toward commoner wizards, but toward guests of the major families, it was extrely generous, giving away various resources without even blinking an eye.
Just like that, thirty-four potion masters were forced to leave the White Dragon Tower, while Alicia invited the three remaining wizards to go up to the second floor to et Grand Wizard Sulla.
Locke and the others followed behind Alicia, walked up the stairs, entered the second floor, and followed behind her, passing through the magic lock, then arriving at a location similar to the second floor residence.
They saw this was a huge golden space, magnificent and splendid, filled with a dazzling array of treasures. Various unique gemstones were embedded in various mithril artifacts as if they cost nothing.
Inside, there were also many formal wizards and first-rate wizard apprentices surrounding Grand Wizard Sulla's sickbed, seemingly researching sothing.
At this mont, Grand Wizard Sulla was wearing gorgeous wizard robes, lying on his bed that resembled a palace chamber's sleeping quarters, eyes tightly closed, and his hands displayed a black-purple color, looking as if he had been poisoned severely.
At this ti, Nehemiah Barrett, a liquefaction stage wizard beside Grand Wizard Sulla, bowed to Alicia and said, "Miss, you've arrived."
"Grand Wizard Sulla has just fallen into unconsciousness again. During this period, the ti he spends in unconsciousness and losing consciousness has been getting longer and longer."
"Before Grand Wizard Sulla fell unconscious, he instructed to inform you that from today onwards, except for you who may enter this floor, none of his children or descendants may approach this floor."
"In other words, now apart from us, you, and the potion masters you invited over, no one else can enter this floor."
Nehemiah Barrett said to Alicia, "Also, the Grand Wizard said that all future potion master selection standards must follow what he previously told you, Miss. Everything will have to trouble you, Miss, to oversee."
Alicia looked at Grand Wizard Sulla with so concern. The lifespan limit of a First Circle wizard was five hundred years, and this year Grand Wizard Sulla was already 497 years old.
In other words, even if Grand Wizard Sulla had not fallen into such a terrible illness, his natural lifespan was about to reach its limit.
When Alicia thought about how the Land of Six Towers and the Plutarch family would lose their leader, and she would lose her grandfather, she felt a wave of panic.
In her mories, that powerful and wise grandfather who always had solutions to problems, if he left, what would the rest of them do?
For over three hundred years, the Plutarch family had grown accustod to Grand Wizard Sulla's long rule. Everyone's pillar of support was Grand Wizard Sulla.
Alicia suppressed her panic, then turned to the three potion masters she had invited and said, "Please temporarily stay in our White Dragon Tower for a period of ti. The situation is urgent, and for the stability of the Land of Six Towers, we must block information."
"But rest assured, if you truly have no way to treat my grandfather, you only need to sign a confidentiality agreent and you can also leave the Plutarch family."
"We only hope that after you leave, you won't say anything to outsiders, only that you stayed at the White Dragon Tower and attempted to treat Grand Wizard Sulla for a period of ti, and therefore voluntarily remained."
The centaur wizard and the witch's expressions changed slightly, but neither had any objections, since the Plutarch family's arrangent was justified under the circumstances.
Alicia said seriously, "Please, three potion masters, co up and examine my grandfather. If you can cure him, my grandfather, Grand Wizard Sulla, whether it's wealth or resources, anything is possible. Our Plutarch family can fulfill one wish for you within reasonable limits."
"The three of you may temporarily stay in the White Dragon Tower. The Plutarch family will arrange excellent accommodations for you. At the sa ti, any requests related to potions can be made. In principle, the three of you may mobilize all potion-related projects and resources in the White Dragon Tower."
The centaur wizard and the witch nodded silently, digesting the information in Alicia's words.
Locke asked Alicia, "Then can I take a look at the potion studies-related projects your Plutarch family is still developing, and take over several of those projects?"
Alicia forcibly suppressed the corners of her mouth, remained expressionless, and pretended to say coldly, "Of course. As long as these projects don't conflict with treating Grand Wizard Sulla."
"As I said before, in principle, you can mobilize all of the Plutarch family's resources in potion studies, including participating in so of the Plutarch family's unfinished projects. This might give you so inspiration in different directions."
"Alright, you three, please co forward and observe my grandfather."
Locke, the centaur, and the witch walked forward.
The family wizards and potion masters surrounding Grand Wizard Sulla's bed all stood up, making way for them.
Locke looked at Grand Wizard Sulla and only then discovered that Grand Wizard Sulla's condition was far more serious than observing from afar.
It wasn't just that his hands showed a black-purple color. Many flesh areas inside his chest had also turned into a kind of black crystal.
It looked extrely bizarre.
"From the external appearance of his hands, it looks like he's been poisoned by so toxin, while the chest area turning into crystal looks like so elent inside his body has lost balance," Locke quickly made a judgnt. "But Grand Wizard Sulla is the highest-level crystallization stage wizard. What kind of toxin could put him in this condition?"
"Moreover, Grand Wizard Sulla holds high authority in the Land of Six Towers. Under normal circumstances, it should be impossible for wizards bearing hostility to get close to him, right?"
Alicia answered, "It's bloodline contamination. My grandfather, Grand Wizard Sulla, is a bloodline refiner. He has at least a hundred types of magical creature bloodlines in his body. So bloodlines exist in reality, while so bloodlines were created through modification."
"In order to break through to beco a Second Circle wizard, in the past fifty years, he exhausted resources and effort to create a bloodline called [Dark Cave Scorpion Woman], and wanted to use this bloodline as the core, utilizing the remaining hundred bloodlines in his body to form a new Second Circle creature bloodline."
"And obtain Second Circle creature bloodline characteristics."
"But this act not only failed, but also caused the dark elent and earth elent in grandfather's body to beco extrely unbalanced. His body and soul are continuously transforming into obsidian crystal. As for his hands, that's actually the result after treatnt."
"A potion master used an extrely toxic poison called [Black Water Toxin], utilizing the fact that taking Black Water Toxin would produce water elent imbalance in the body, to neutralize the situation of earth elent and dark elent losing balance in grandfather's body."
"But Black Water Toxin also has the effect of disintegrating cells, causing every bloodline factor in the body to naturally decompose, turning the wizard into a pool of black water. So grandfather needs to take 7 types of potions daily to neutralize the side effects of Black Water Toxin."
"Thus, by the ti I arrived here, I discovered the situation had beco extrely complex. Three types of elental balance imbalances appeared in grandfather's body, and moreover, Black Water Toxin continues to erode the bloodline essence in grandfather's body. Black Water Toxin works on all creatures because all creature bodies contain bloodline essence and bloodline factors. If all bloodline factors break apart, the organism will inevitably die in genetic collapse."
Locke said, "To be honest, you really should have kept that Wizard Santos just now. He is indeed the most skilled healing potion studies wizard among us."
The centaur and the witch, seeing this thorny situation, also showed greatly changed expressions and felt fear. Hearing Locke actually dare to say this at this mont, they also hurriedly nodded.
After all, Grand Wizard Sulla's current situation before them was too complex.
Just the elental imbalances inside his body totaled three types.
Moreover, the cause of the imbalance was highly related to the hundred types of bloodline essences inside him. They all could see that the more than a hundred bloodline essences serving as the core of Grand Wizard Sulla's power had now completely gone out of control.
In order to survive, to allow the host to survive, these bloodline essences began madly expanding within Grand Wizard Sulla's body.
If not for Enchantnt School wizards using spells to suppress them daily, just these rioting bloodline essences alone would be enough to cause this old man to die imdiately.
The most troubleso part was still the [Dark Cave Scorpion Woman] bloodline that Grand Wizard Sulla had spent fifty years designing in order to advance to Second Circle wizard.
This bloodline was simply too powerful.
It was constantly absorbing dark elents and earth elents from the surroundings every mont, pouring them into Grand Wizard Sulla's body, causing Grand Wizard Sulla's body to begin losing elental balance. He could only survive by taking poison, using drastic dicine thods to barely cling to life.
