Sasa only showcased two products: the composite body tester and the magic power asuring device. The lord imdiately beca interested in the goods brought by these humans and organized the elves to test and inspect the remaining products.

Even though it is already nightti, for the elves who can all cast spells, the night is not a problem.

Just like humans, so elves also enjoy nightti activities, staying at ho to sleep during the day.

Except for soldiers and scholars, elves do not have very clear divisions of labor. Every elf knows a little bit about everything, and the lord can easily gather a batch of elves with the ability to inspect products.

Initially, those elves had so complaints about the lord’s behavior, but when they found out their next job was to inspect the sample products brought by humans, they imdiately beca excited.

How novel it is! They actually got such an interesting job. Long live the lord!

Many elves live for too long, so life becos very boring. They especially hope to encounter novel things. Quite a few soldiers went into the profession because of curiosity.

Even if it is work, as long as it’s sothing novel enough, the elves can dedicate themselves entirely to it.

Because they didn’t know how many people would co, the lord arranged a big house for Yan Luo and the others in advance. Even if it wasn’t filled, it wouldn’t be a problem, as the house was originally vacant.

After nightfall, Yan Luo and the others moved into that big house, and the dinner was bought for them by Julia.

Appearing outside right now is still too conspicuous and might cause a commotion, so Julia helped them out.

At dinner, the five of them gathered around the dining table, eating dinner while discussing their observations of the elves for the day.

Sasa was the first to express her thoughts: "[Comprehend Language] This magic is essentially a knowledge infusion. I didn’t directly learn the Elvish language; instead, Elvish pronunciations and writings appeared in my mind, and I had to compare them with Chinese to speak Elvish. This ans that if the user doesn’t understand the corresponding language sounds, they’ll probably only be able to infuse the text."

Unlike engravings, the magic used by Engravers of the Mage sequence is designed by modern Blue Star people themselves. This is why there are many spells that conform closely to physical laws, and few abstract spells like [Comprehend Language].

Of course, it’s only relatively close.

Among those spells that seem to comply with physical laws, many actually contradict them.

Wu Zechuan, eating a piece of pastry, chewed it a couple of tis, then discarded it because the texture didn’t match its fragrant taste.

"From the situation in this city, Sequence Three is still the backbone. Sequence Two, for the elves, is not particularly powerful, but their numbers shouldn’t be large either."

This conclusion was drawn from Wu Zechuan’s observation of the lord and Master Magnus’s reactions.

They should know what Engravers are and what kind of power he possesses, and their reactions were only ’surprised,’ not to the extent of being ’greatly shocked.’

Li Xinyue thought for a mont and said: "The lord wasn’t very interested in trading with us at first, but after Sasa demonstrated the body tester and the magic power asuring device, they beca interested. It seems they’re not very concerned about how humans have developed and don’t see us as a threat."

Liu Feiyu chid in and said: "The comrcial atmosphere here is not strong, and there are few trading activities. While driving here, I kept observing and found that they seem to have no equivalent currency, engaging in bartering instead—I think the Elf Race might be a communist society."

After Liu Feiyu finished speaking, everyone else looked at the usually quiet Yan Luo.

After a mont’s contemplation, Yan Luo spoke: "I’m pondering what a ’Saint’ actually is."

Both Julia and the lord ntioned the term ’Saint.’

The elves know what a Saint is like. According to them, Yan Luo thinks he might be a ’Saint.’

Blood infusion can empower those with extrely low magic power adaptability to beco Enhancers, turning them into ’Samurai.’

In ancient tis, Samurai were a separate class, and at least before the Qin Dynasty, the identity of Samurai was quite noble.

The reason for this might be that ’Saints’ among their ancestors infused blood to so people, turning them into Samurai, and this culture was passed down.

But as ti passed, the magical environnt changed, individual power gradually weakened; during the Warring States period, there were stories like Liezi riding the wind and hunting the Kirin in the west; by the end of the Qin Dynasty and the beginning of the Han Dynasty, there were unparalleled Overlords like Xiang Yu. However, later, individual martial prowess was no longer the dominant force in warfare, and wars were led by corps instead.

During the Tang Dynasty, various mysterious stories circulated on the earth, like Wei Zheng beheading the dragon in his dream or Yuchi Gong and Qin Qiong being made into door gods. Later, mystery completely disappeared.

By this tiline, Blue Star spent thousands of years to allow magic power to fully dissipate.

What are Saints related to? Why could humans give birth to Saints?

These are the questions Yan Luo is pondering.

He doesn’t care about the Elf Race or whether they can reach a trade agreent with them.

Yan Luo is more concerned with the issue of ’Saints’ because, in his view, understanding what a Saint is might help him eliminate the Abyss more quickly.

Everyone is concerned about the ’Saint’ ntioned by the lord.

Although Liu Feiyu has just joined, because he ingested Yan Luo’s blood, he can be considered one of them, so Wu Zechuan pulled him into the discussion.

"The lord doesn’t think Yan Luo is a Saint..." saying this, Wu Zechuan looked at Sasa.

Sasa shrugged and said frankly: "Okay, I’ll be honest. Before Yan Luo’s secret was exposed, I privately conducted so experints with him, and in one, we aid to explore why he has this kind of constitution, so I bought so experintal animals with the sa low magic adaptability as Yan Luo.

"Through those experintal animals, we ruled out several possibilities, and just when we both thought the experint had failed, I had a sudden inspiration and injected Yan Luo’s blood into the experintal animals, and it turned out that the experintal animals with low magic adaptability underwent structural changes and, like Yan Luo, beca empowered. Later, I purchased so animals with magic adaptability and found out that Yan Luo’s blood can give automatically absorbing magic power to animals with magic adaptability.

"It was from these experints that we concluded Yan Luo’s blood can enhance individual advantages. Although we didn’t explore the fundantal reason for Yan Luo having this constitution, getting this result wasn’t a disappointnt for those experints."

Wu Zechuan suddenly realized, "So both you and Yan Luo think he is a Saint?"

It turns out that this piece of crucial information was missing, or he should have been able to guess it earlier.

Sasa nodded, "From any aspect, Yan Luo seems to fit the criteria of a ’Saint.’ After all, think about it, if he rely acquired the superpower to strengthen his body, then why can his blood give you the superpower to automatically absorb magic power? It doesn’t make sense! Only explaining with ’Yan Luo is a Saint’ can answer all these questions."

The Engravers present all agreed with Sasa’s viewpoint. Only this way, can the powerful function of Yan Luo’s blood be explained.

Then the question arises, what exactly is a ’Saint’?

"It seems that Saints can also have very long lifespans because whether it’s the lord or Julia, they all asked which Saint Yan Luo follows. They believe they might know the Saint Yan Luo ’follows’," said Sasa, looking at Yan Luo.

Everyone turned their eyes to Yan Luo.

Yan Luo himself was expressionless, his thoughts unknown.

Looking back at Yan Luo’s previous experiences, it turns out that he beca a ’Saint’ all of a sudden.

And from an ordinary person to a Saint, he only went through one event.

—Fighting a deadly Silent Lizard and desperately trying to kill that demon, bathing his whole body in the blood of the Silent Lizard.

Bathing in demon blood doesn’t make one a Saint, so the key to Yan Luo becoming a Saint is fighting a deadly demon.

As an ordinary person, killing a deadly demon and bathing entirely in its blood, can one then beco a Saint?

If this is the way to beco a Saint, then before the unfortunate ten years when Blue Star people didn’t have Engravers, were there also people who beca Saints?
