.
"Possible?
Yes, but it's not without risks, especially in the current situation where most of is still under the influence of the seal.
I'm not sure I can manage sothing like this," she said, explaining why she was uncertain about this approach.
Ethan didn't imdiately think about whether it was currently possible or not, but rather wondered what effects doing sothing like this could have on his body.
"If by chance you were able to provide with a dragon's bloodline, and I managed to assimilate it, what would happen to ?" he asked with a hint of concern.
"It depends. If you successfully assimilate it, several outcos are possible, varying based on the bloodline you've absorbed and how it's assimilated.
For example, if you were to absorb the bloodline of a creature different from your race, the two bloodlines would conflict, and the body would try to find a possible balance between the two.
If one of them turns out to be stronger, it will suppress the other, and your body will change accordingly.
For example, you might develop so traits of that creature or completely transform into one of them," she said calmly while explaining.
Hearing this, Ethan imagined himself with a tail and scales all over his body.
He shuddered at the thought but didn't stop the explanation.
"On the other hand, if your bloodline resists the foreign bloodline, you might retain most of your characteristics while gaining sothing from the suppressed bloodline.
In your case, if you were to absorb a dragon's bloodline, you'd almost certainly either die because your body can't withstand a dragon's power, or you would assu its form.
There are various factors that influence this process, so it's always risky to assimilate other bloodlines."
"Then what's the point of suggesting it?
Wouldn't that be like giving a poisoned pill?" Ethan asked, no longer seeing any benefit in doing such a thing.
"Normally, I wouldn't propose this solution, but the fact is that you have the ans to resist and succeed in this endeavor," she said.
"What do you an?" he asked, skeptical.
For a mont, he thought she was referring to the Seven Sages' Amphora.
"I'm referring to your special physique.
When you acquired it, it wasn't just your talent that improved;
your bloodline was strengthened as well.
Although your special physique hasn't reached its peak yet, it should be enough to resist a dragon's bloodline, especially in my current situation, where I am still largely suppressed, and so is my blood.
The only problem is that I can't manifest a physical body in the real world, so I can only attempt to produce a drop of my blood essence at the mont.
But giving it to you would be more dangerous than absorbing a normal drop of blood," she said, making Ethan understand why she wasn't sure about this approach.
Hearing this, Ethan thought there was no need to take unnecessary risks now.
After all, he was wealthy now, or at least more well-off than he had ever been before.
Perhaps he wouldn't be able to get his hands on a high-level technique so soon, but it should be within his ans to buy a lower-level one.
At his current level, even such a technique would be of great help.
Thinking about this, he decided it was better to decline this offer, at least for the mont.
As he was about to refuse, a familiar sound echoed in his head, and a blue screen appeared before him.
DING!
[You have unlocked a special mission]
'What?'
Ethan didn't understand what he had done to unlock a special mission, but he realized it would surely be sothing good.
Without hesitation, he pressed it to see what it was.
.
[-----------------------------------
[Special Mission]
- Successfully acquire a dragon's bloodline.
Reward:
- Ability: Dragon Gaze
Ti: 02 : 59 : 58
-----------------------------------]
.
Seeing that it was an ability, the fla of excitent reignited in Ethan.
'Dragon Gaze'
Ethan wasn't sure of this ability's effects, but just from the na, it sounded like sothing powerful.
Not only that, if the system had intervened at this mont, it also ant that maybe he had a good chance of acquiring Bai Yu's bloodline without taking too much risk.
At this point, Ethan had to decide whether to take the risk or not.
'Well, I can't always run from choices, and if the system is suggesting this, then maybe my chances aren't that low.'
The system had always helped him in one way or another, and in none of those tis had he risked losing his life.
So he wondered, why not rely on it one more ti?
After all, if he wanted to beco stronger, he would have to face situations like this much more often in the future.
What sense did it make to retreat now?
In the end, after a few minutes of contemplation, he made his decision.
Turning his gaze to Bai Yu, he said, in a tone that left no hint of hesitation:
"I want to try," he said.
Bai Yu, hearing this, looked at him strangely and said:
"Are you sure? Although your chances aren't low, there's no guarantee that everything will go well," she said, trying to make him understand that this wasn't sothing to be taken lightly.
Ethan was her lifeline out of this place, and she didn't want him to get seriously hurt or worse, die because of this decision.
Who knows when she would have another chance to break free from the artifact's seal.
"Yes, I'm sure.
I feel like I can do it."
Maybe saying he felt like he could do it wasn't quite right since it was the system that seed to be telling him he could succeed, but that wasn't important at the mont.
He needed to focus and prepare for what was about to happen.
