Miss Witch doesn't want to be a diva

At the beginning of March, after dealing with a number of company affairs, and the progress of the project will be followed up by the members of the star cluster, Tilan finally had some free time.

It seems that the little guys should also advance, and Tilan finally remembered the pet companions she cultivated.

She has been very busy during this period. During the period when Themisia was in charge of the body, she would not take care of them, and asked the maids to help take care of them.

"Are you asking about the situation of the white kites? They are all normal. They go out for a ride from time to time during the day and always come back in the evening." A maid in a red skirt who was in charge of taking care of them answered.

"Because you said that the big spider does not need to be taken care of too much, we just provide food. It usually comes back every few days for a big meal."

"The white young dragon usually stays on the dome on the top floor to bask in the sun, tempering and accumulating magic power according to the branding array you arranged. The other cold-scaled young dragon stays in the ice pool of the cold storage underground. Occasionally we will go there to feed it with the prepared nutrient cubes."

"I know." The girl nodded and then walked towards the top floor.

Soon, she pushed open the door on the top dome. The space inside was a hemispherical observatory with a one-way translucent glass dome on the top. From the outside, it was an elegant purple, while from the inside, it was transparent glass.

Going up the spiral staircase, the highest point was a cylindrical platform, where a young dragon with snow-white scales and a faint halo lay coiled. There was a transparent golden gem between its eyebrows, like a miniature sun, emitting a faint heat.

When the girl approached, the young dragon opened its eyes, raised its head, gently rubbed the girl's palm, and then continued to lie down.

It's much bigger than before. When I first met, this young dragon was still a daylight indigo snake, which could wrap around the girl's arm and stand up.

Now, the girl compared it with her palm. The young dragon's neck is probably a little thicker than her waist.

Unlike humans, supernatural animals tend to grow in size as they advance, so they can accumulate more magic power and become stronger. If humans use guns and swords as weapons, then these supernatural animals use their claws and fangs.

If they are supernatural animals that have not been artificially cultivated, their strength will not improve so quickly, and their core models when they advance are mostly simple. However, if they are animals carefully raised by breeders, they will be much stronger. With human intervention, the advancement templates of these supernatural animals can often keep up with the mainstream progress. The various exquisite nutritious foods and ritual arrays provided by breeders can also greatly increase the speed of their accumulation of magic power.

With Tilan, it only took this indigo snake 4 years to go from sequence 2 to sequence 5, but if it was in the wild without anyone to teach and supervise it, it might take 30-40 years, and this is when it is smart enough to comprehend the high-level core model on its own.

As for the magic beasts above sequence 6, it depends on luck. There are generally not many in nature. Unless it is a special tribe led by a powerful high-level leader magic beast, it will appear more frequently.

Pressing her finger lightly on the gemstone between the young dragon's eyebrows, Tilan's perception spread along it, slowly outlining the flow of magic power in the young dragon's body and its current state in her mind.

The sunlight from the roof passed through the glass of the dome and fell on the scales of the young dragon, reflecting the glittering veins and imprints in it, and then following these natural imprints and veins on the scales, the sunlight and Aijieka particles turned into special light golden magic power for the young dragon to absorb and enter the body.

After that, these light golden magic powers with the attributes of "sunlight" and "fire" gathered in the extraordinary core of the young dragon, and along the complex veins in the core, they were refined again and precipitated into a higher-level magic power with the attributes of "sun" and "dragon", and then accumulated in the core.

Although the whole process was not fast, it was very stable, and it could operate spontaneously even if the young dragon fell asleep.

In this process, the young dragon will also slowly adapt to and master these high-level essence magic through the process of refining magic, so that it can have stronger control when advancing, can perform more refined operations, and is safer.

If the essence magic provided by certain spiritual medicines is used, although it can greatly reduce the time required to accumulate magic, because it is not the magic accumulated by oneself, the control is often poor, which makes it much more dangerous when advancing. If relevant measures are not prepared in advance, there is even a risk of losing control. This is the pros and cons of extraordinary spiritual medicines.

After helping the young dragon to sort out and optimize the trajectory of magic operation, Tilan retracted her fingers, stroked the pale young dragon again, fed it some energy blocks, supplemented the special elements needed for growth, and then walked down the platform.

There is no need to worry about the white dragon for the time being. Judging from its appearance, it will be able to advance to Sequence 6 in about 3-4 years.

Although it was a bit slow compared to Tilan, this speed was actually quite amazing. After all, due to their size, Warcraft needed more magic power accumulation. Moreover, the dragon sequence was very special, and often required about twice as much magic power accumulation as other sequences.

It was time to take a look at the cold-scaled young dragon in the underground ice pool.

Turning the stairs, Tilan went down to the basement, and opened the underground ice storage with his identity authority and entered it.

There was a chill in the air. The temperature here was maintained at minus 20 degrees all year round. You could feel a few raised ice ridges and fragments when you stepped on the ground.

Continuing to walk in, when Tilan was about to enter the hall where the ice pool was located, a figure holding a lantern appeared at the end of the corridor.

The other party raised his head and saw Tilan standing in the ice storage, with a surprised expression on his face.

"Lord Tilan, why are you here?"

The girl shook her head, "I came to see the young dragon, but you, have you been guarding here all the time?"

The maid holding the lantern opposite was wearing a skirt with dark red rose lace and a red hood on her upper body. Seeing Tilan asking questions, she took off the hood, revealing her short golden hair covering her ears.

"Yes, I have been guarding here, because there is a sarcophagus in the ice storage where everyone sleeps." She knelt and answered.

"How many maids are sleeping now?" Tilan remembered that the blood clan would occasionally sleep for a long time.

"There are 37 of my kind sleeping now, and they will wake up one after another in about a year, and then replace other members working in the mansion." She answered in detail.

"Is that so? I vaguely remember Ran Bei'er saying that the price of your longevity is that you need to enter a dormant state regularly, right?"

"That's right. We will repair our bodies and genes during the dormant process, and this process will consume a lot of essence of magic power, which also causes our advancement speed to be often slower than that of ordinary extraordinary people."

"The price of longevity..." Tilan thought thoughtfully.

"You go ahead, I'll go see the young dragon."

"Yes, Lord Tilan." After saying that, she stood up and slowly disappeared into the depths of the corridor.

Entering the hall on the 7th floor underground, the girl saw a bottomless black pool in the middle of the ground, and the temperature in the air was also extremely low.

It was about 50 degrees below zero, the girl thought, but for her, it didn't feel cold, after all, she was born with the power related to crystallization and stillness, which was also the source of the concept of cold.

Walking to the edge of the ice pool, Tilan put her fingers into the water, stirred it slightly, felt the spread of ripples, and the perception also spread downwards.

After a while, the image of the young dragon deep under the water appeared in the girl's mind.

It was sleeping so soundly. This guy was not as agile as the indigo snake and felt a little clumsy.

She recalled the scene when they first met, when she was helping in the maid shop, this little snake was entangled on her legs, which made her a little panicked.

After thinking about how to wake this guy up, Tilan moved her fingers, and a long ice spike condensed in her palm, and then one end fell deep under the water. As her wrist moved, the other end knocked on the head of the sleeping cold-scaled young dragon.

Wake up, the girl called softly in her heart.

Under the water, the young dragon finally opened its eyes, hid under the knocking of the ice spike, and then swam and emerged from the water.

Its scales were ice blue, and the inner skin was extremely white. In contrast, it formed a texture of ice blue and white, which was very beautiful. After emerging from the water, it floated up, swam slowly over the pool, and then came to Tilan.

‘By the way, your colors have been swapped.’

Tilan remembered that this young dragon was originally a white tree viper raised in a glass house in the Butis Rainforest. Now, because of the choice of advancement, it has become a young dragon with icy attributes, and its scales have become icy blue.

The daylight snake, which was originally indigo in color, has become snow-white in scales because it has advanced to the ‘sun’ and ‘sunlight’ attributes.

Touching the little head of the tree viper, Tilan also combed and checked it.

Compared with the pale young dragon ‘Zhu’, this cold-scaled young dragon is much smaller in size and has less magic power accumulation than the other. This is not to say that its talent is not as good as the other, but that it lacks a suitable environment.

Under the dome of the observatory, the sunlight can be gathered with the help of the special magic array there, and the magic power of the ‘sun’ and ‘fire’ attributes is relatively active, easy to transform and utilize, and naturally accumulates quickly.

On the contrary, the magic power of the 'ice cold' attribute originally carries the concept of 'slowness'. Even if the magic beast itself is immune, its speed will definitely not be as fast as that of the 'sun' and 'fire' attributes.

This situation is also reflected in the current supernatural factions. The concepts of 'fire' and 'sun' with high activity are mostly popular, while the esoteric factions with the concepts of 'ice cold' and 'forbidden' are relatively rare.

In fact, it is also the case in nature. Absolute zero is only minus 273 degrees, but the high temperature can be thousands or even tens of thousands of degrees.

It seems that I have to ask if there is a suitable ritual array for you to assist in practice, the girl thought.

But for now, she has other ways to help this cold-scaled young dragon solve the problem of magic power accumulation.

With a finger raised, a jade flute condensed from ice appeared in her palm. After a little adaptation, Tilan held the flute horizontally and played it slowly.

The quiet flute sounded slowly in this underground world. Because it was far away from the outside world, she could play to her heart's content without worrying about affecting passers-by and spectators.

Then, the flute sound like a clear spring rose and fell, like a trickle of water passing through the mountains, like a smart bird flying across the wilderness. As the girl played, the temperature around her became lower and lower, and a faint "ice mist" slowly emerged around her.

In the ice mist caused by the tiny particles of highly condensed magic power, the cold-scaled young dragon swam happily, and the scales on its body also glowed with a faint halo, constantly absorbing the ice mist in the air.

In this way, time passed slowly. After about 20 minutes, Tilan opened her eyes and put down the flute.

At this time, the temperature in the air was more than 200 degrees below zero. If she hadn't been able to keep the objects around her body unaffected, I'm afraid her clothes would have been broken into pieces.

With a slight lift of her palm, the ice mist in the air quickly condensed, and finally formed a flawless and transparent ice ball in the palm of her hand.

Take the ice ball and place it in front of the young dragon, then Tilan loosens her fingers, and the cold-scaled young dragon swallows the ice ball condensed by pure magic power.

"After that, you just hold it and absorb it slowly." The girl touched the head of the young dragon, and then let it return to the bottom of the water to rest.

After leaving the underground hall, she closed the door again, and then went to the place where the maids were sleeping.

"Lord Tilan." Seeing the girl coming, the maid she had seen not long ago stood up.

The girl nodded slightly, and then looked at the hall where the sarcophagi were displayed. There were about 130 sarcophagi here, and about a quarter of them were sleeping in the vampires.

Walking in front, the maid held a lantern to lead the way for the girl.

"What's your name?" There were too many maids in the mansion, and Tilan sometimes couldn't remember them clearly.

"My name is Shayla, Lord Tilan." She said her name.

"How many maids are there at the same level as you, at the Blood Eye Sequence 6?" Tilan was curious.

"Including me, there are 12 people in total. Lady Ran Bei'er is the only Blood Eye Sequence 7, and is currently sleeping."

"Higher-sequence vampires spend more time sleeping. Currently, there are only 5 maids with Sequence 6 in the mansion activities, and the other maids with Sequence 6 of the same level are all sleeping."

"That is to say, among these 5 people, except you, in daily life up there, only 4 people are Sequence 6, right?"

"That's right, but because of our special physique and the sequence we cultivate, our combat power will be much stronger than that of the same level, so Lady Tilan doesn't have to worry."

"Among the rest of the people, except for the 30 or so new companions, the others are all at the level of Blood Eye Sequence 5." She continued to add.

"Well, I know." Tilan walked past the sarcophagus one by one, occasionally putting her hand lightly on the closed sarcophagus to feel the situation of the sleeping maid inside.

Although the blood race is powerful, its flaws are also obvious. No wonder their numbers have been small over the years and they have not become a powerful force. On the one hand, they are excluded by major mainstream forces because of their bloodline and physique. On the other hand, their frequent dormancy also makes it impossible for them to maintain certain key positions. They can only do some auxiliary professions, such as scholars, artists, scientific research, combat categories, etc. If they are key leadership positions, they have to find people to replace them frequently.

"Are there many forces or giant companies that know about your existence?" Tilan was quite curious.

"This... shouldn't be many." Shayla shook her head.

"In the early days of the Federation, our identity was very awkward. Although we were not a new race under the 'Dark Sun', we were also a highly modified and specialized race, and very different from the mainstream group."

"At that time, because of the war in the Fifth Era, the major mainstream forces had a strong sense of rejection of us 'aliens', and bloody incidents often broke out."

"In order to avoid disaster, the blood clan at that time had to hide their identities, disperse, and hide in the crowd. Even if they had special abilities, they dared not use them. Because of their special physique, they had to find areas with sparse populations to settle down, so as to reduce the probability of being discovered."

"When we met you, our branch had been quietly operating and multiplying in the Emerald Skirt for hundreds of years, and gradually had nearly two hundred people of the same clan. If it were other star fields, the largest clan might not have more than a dozen people. If there were more, it would greatly increase the probability of being exposed."

"Will the Inquisition still arrest you now?" Tilan thought, the Federation did not seem to have any laws specifically targeting blood clans.

"They won't arrest us on purpose, but if they cite the 'Alien Safety Law', it's easy to find a reason to arrest us, so we are in a gray area that is neither black nor white."

"But with your protection and guarantee, those people in the Inquisition will not target us."

In fact, as long as these maids do not leave the mansion, basically no one will come to make trouble. Moreover, if the influence of the singer expands in the future, the image of the blood race, as a frequent attendant, will gradually improve among the people and become easier to accept.

After all, in the Sixth Era, the blood race was still well-behaved, and the True Red Empire in history was also considered to have made contributions to mankind and was a frequent guest in many film and television dramas, so it was relatively easy to change their concepts.

After listening to Shayla's description, Tilan expressed understanding.

"Take your time. Although I don't know how other blood races in the Federation are, you stay with me and I will protect you well."

The pain of that war really had a far-reaching impact.

The girl stopped and looked at the drawing on the wall in the distance. It depicted the past when Isenissa led various tribes to fight against the ‘dark suns’ at the end of the Fifth Era.

The whole drawing was dark in tone, except for the place where Isenissa stood, which seemed to be filled with a faint golden light, spreading and radiating around and behind her. Those great men in history stood behind her one by one, looking at the black sun burning in the sky in the distance.

Even now, traces of that period of history remain inside and outside the Federation.
