Locke picked up the Poison Pearls scattered on the ground. When Nidhogg was pulled into the Blood River Plane earlier, these Poison Pearls belonging to this secret realm weren't absorbed and were decomposed into magical tides and sent back.
A total of seventeen Poison Pearls fell on the ground.
"Why are there so many?" Locke thought for a mont. "After all, this is the Basil family ancestor's secret realm. They probably mastered thods of obtaining Poison Pearls that I don't know about."
Locke collected these Poison Pearls and found the three spider won from earlier, giving thirteen Poison Pearls to them.
After all, he only needed five Poison Pearls to get out, and he had already collected one earlier.
The three spider won were very grateful to him. "Great Lord Wizard, to repay you for saving us from this cage, we are willing to beco your servants!"
Locke frowned and directly took five Poison Pearls and placed them into the poison lake before him. "No need. You've just escaped one cage. There's no need to imdiately enter another cage."
"Moreover, I'm not a bloodline wizard and have no interest in taking servant races."
"If you need to find a backer, I can give you a recomndation. You can go to the Plutarch family."
A trace of regret appeared on spider woman Blanche's face. As descendants of a Second Circle bloodline wizard's vassal race, they still retained the instinct to pledge loyalty to wizards.
The true dragon bloodline on Locke's body, especially that Immortal Dragon Scale on the back of his hand, made these vassal races extrely prone to feeling submission.
They would only think this was Locke's personal charisma, not knowing it was the dragon's awe subtly influencing their hearts and minds.
The three spider won had no choice but to give up and thank Locke for his generosity.
At the sa ti, the three spider won secretly rembered Locke's words. The dragon's awe's influence on them was very severe, so they decided to tell the other spider won in their clan about Locke's suggestion and go to that so-called Plutarch family after leaving this wizard secret realm.
Locke walked out of the wizard secret realm along the stone gate. When he entered, his magical pressure was only over seven thousand. When leaving the secret realm, Locke had gained progress in three major bloodlines, and his magical pressure had also reached 8000.
The progress couldn't be said to be small.
Five Basil family wizards, upon seeing Locke walk out of the secret realm, imdiately glared at Locke one after another. They seed unable to believe that the one who ca out wasn't Wizard Nidhogg, but that outside wizard.
A Basil family wizard questioned Locke, "How could it be you who ca out? Where is Lord Nidhogg!"
Locke glanced at him. At this mont, even without using the Large Green Leaf Dragon Sparrow, he could release dragon's awe relying on the Immortal Dragon Scale on the back of his hand.
In a sense, for dragons, their essence was the dragon scales, not the dragon's body.
Locke, who possessed dragon scales, could essentially say he was a First Circle stage young dragon.
Under the suppression of dragon's awe, the ordinary First Circle wizard who had just questioned Locke imdiately felt fear and awe of Locke in his heart. He lowered his head, not daring to make eye contact with Locke.
The instant he opened his mouth, a chill suddenly erged from behind him. Then his teeth chattered, unable to speak.
The remaining four First Circle wizards from the Basil family also developed fear psychology toward Locke. For a mont, not a single person dared step forward and stand before Locke.
Kandel asked Locke, "Lord Locke, that... that Basil family wizard, did you happen to encounter him?"
Locke said, "I did."
Kandel beca nervous. "Then you..."
Locke said, "I didn't suffer any losses. That guy suddenly attacked . I'd like to ask the Basil family wizards what this situation is about."
Kandel looked Locke up and down and was slightly surprised internally. He hadn't expected that Locke hadn't suffered any losses even before Wizard Nidhogg.
"Lord Locke, fortunately you're alright. So where did Lord Nidhogg go?"
"Rest assured, I've already secretly requested Plutarch family support. I believe our family's support will arrive soon."
Kandel looked at the five Basil family wizards before him full of hostility.
Locke shook his head slightly. "No need to worry about his problem. The wizard you ntioned is already dead."
Kandel looked at Locke in astonishnt. "Lord Locke, dead? You killed him?"
At this ti, the five Basil family mbers also looked at Locke as if they'd seen a ghost, shock and fear rising in their hearts.
Locke shook his head. "No, I recorded his death process with a True Sight Orb. Moreover, in wizard secret realms, it's impossible to kill other wizards no matter what."
"He was summoned away by the Blood River Plane."
The six ordinary First Circle bloodline wizards present all showed puzzled expressions. Clearly, they hadn't been exposed to First Circle crystallization stage knowledge and didn't understand what Locke ant.
At the sa ti, Alicia arrived hurriedly with Grand Wizard Sulla's soul and three liquefaction stage bloodline wizards. Grand Wizard Sulla heard Locke's words and was stunned for a mont, then looked at Locke with complex eyes and spoke on Locke's behalf to those five First Circle wizards from the Basil family.
"We bloodline wizards generally sign contracts with the Blood River Plane after reaching the First Circle crystallization stage. The Blood River Plane is most compatible with us bloodline wizards. Blood River power can greatly enhance our bloodline wizards' bloodline power."
"The Blood River Plane is also one of the rare powerful unique planes where borrowing power through ritual magic has no upper limit."
"But once you borrow too much power from the Blood River Plane, you may be summoned away by the Blood River Plane. So Wizard Nidhogg counts as suicide, I suppose."
Grand Wizard Sulla said, "Being summoned away by the Blood River Plane ans that before that, he borrowed too much of the Blood River Plane's power."
"This ans that before that, he encountered a formidable enemy." Grand Wizard Sulla looked at Locke with complex expression and said to Locke, "Locke, you've grown even faster than I imagined. I originally thought you'd need to stay in the Land of Six Towers for at least a few more years. Now it seems the situation isn't so."
"However, why did Nidhogg confront you? Can you tell about it?"
Locke briefly explained. Grand Wizard Sulla's expression imdiately turned cold as he looked at the five First Circle wizards from the Basil family. "Did you hear?"
"Wizard Nidhogg was one of your Basil family's four First Circle crystallization stage wizards, but his death has nothing to do with us. It was completely his own doing. Get lost."
The five Basil family wizards' hearts and minds were still suppressed by Locke's dragon's awe, and they were even more shocked and unsettled by Wizard Nidhogg's death. At this mont, how would they dare say anything more? One by one, they imdiately fled in panic.
