Chapter 280, the dragon

If Hull continues his career as a mercenary, it will take about a thousand months to raise it, and of course, it cannot be ruled out that he will find some ruins during the mission and make a fortune.

But that chance is a little too small.

Therefore, the choice that Wang Dashu made for Hull was to return to the kingdom of Ehisia and borrow a sum from his grandfather!

Of course, he also prepared a set of arguments for Hull, which was nothing more than waiting for a while, and after Hull turned into a dragon, the money would be returned to His Majesty the King with double or even triple benefits.

But the rhetoric prepared by Wang Dashu failed when Hull met with the king's grandfather.

His Majesty, the stubborn King, did not believe Hull's words at all, and he regarded Hull's borrowing of money as a situation in which a loser could no longer wander outside, and ran back with a lot of debt.

The only good news was that although the king did not believe Hull's words, he still lent Hull 50,000 gold coins.

After all, in the eyes of His Majesty the King, it would be a bit of a shame to let someone else collect debts and collect them in the palace.

But His Majesty also had his own request, not allowing Hull to leave the palace, and also prepared a marriage for Hull.

It is said that she is the eldest daughter of Earl So-and-so, and she is not very good-looking, but her father is a rich man, and he has almost monopolized the animal husbandry and Warcraft breeding in several nearby kingdoms!

If you think about it, you know what His Majesty the King is planning.

Rather than letting Hull make trouble for himself for a day and watch his eyes swell, it is better to marry him off, so that he can win over the rich earl without worrying.

The two add up, the benefits are great, why not.

And Wang Dashu did not object to this.

Marriage or anything was not a problem for him, and he was happy to stay in the palace.

Compared to the outside, the palace is undoubtedly much safer.

As for Mr. Baron, who was sent by the king to supervise him, on the first day of meeting, he was packed up by Hull and obedient, not only did he not dare to make a small report, but he also took care of the procurement of all kinds of materials that Hull needed.

The court baron was also very helpless, although he was ordered by the king, but the other party was the king's grandson, and his mother was the most favored princess Ellie, not to mention that the other party's fists were so hard and so ruthless!

Anyway, as long as the other party does not make a move of repentance, it is easy to say anything in front of His Majesty the King.

Even if Hull had built an altar to a suspected evil god in a secluded part of the palace, no one dared to report it to His Majesty.

Overall, Hull's purchase of materials and magic scrolls went well.

An altar dedicated to activating bloodlines was also erected.

Next, a magic ritual is needed to activate and purify the dragon blood in Hel's body, so that it can transform into a dragon!

In the dead of night, when the moon was high, Hull came to the altar.

The court baron was also called by him.

Well, this court baron was supposed to live with Hull so that he could keep an eye on each other at all times.

But after being punched and kicked by Hull, he changed his mind and moved to another room more than a hundred meters away from Hull.

So when Hull called him over, it wasn't too much trouble.

The sleepy-eyed court baron didn't know what Hull wanted to do, but as the other party requested, he put the powdered Mithril, gems, and other magical materials into the grooves carved on the altar one by one.

Of course, Hull himself did not completely let go, and kept an eye on the court baron at all times to prevent the other party from making a mistake.

After all the magic materials were placed, Hull took out the magic scroll from his arms, walked onto the altar, and took out a sharp dagger in his right hand and slashed it at the wrist of his left hand, and blood immediately gushed out and dripped on the scroll.

In an instant, the magic scroll shone with a blood-red light.

The magical light quickly spread around the altar, igniting the magical materials in the grooves one by one.

Magical flames of different colors spread rapidly along the grooves, enveloping the altar in colorful flames.

Seeing this scene, the court barons were a little dumbfounded, he didn't know anything about magic, but looking at the strange state after the altar was activated, he was somewhat frightened in his heart, but he didn't dare to escape.

The Magic Ritual has been successfully activated!

Wang Dashu didn't intervene in all this, but let Hel act on his own, but he could feel the blood in Hull's body begin to boil with the activation of the magic ritual.

But then again, it also brought great pain to Hull and Wang Dashu, a pain that seemed to be beginning to tear in their bodies.

This kind of magic ritual to activate the bloodline is not the most popular among warlocks now, it is extremely old, and its success rate is only fifty percent.

In other words, there is a half chance of failure, and the consequences of failure are not something that ordinary people can afford.

Some rituals fail and become ugly monsters like half-drakes and cannot be reverted back to human form, while others die directly if they fail, and so on.

It is precisely because of this that the warlocks who have since continued to improve, so that the success rate of new magic rituals is getting higher and higher, and even the success rate of magic rituals is now 99%.

As long as it's not unlucky, it's usually going to be successful.

But the new magical ritual, not to mention that it costs twice as much as this ancient ritual, and there is no such magical ritual to be found in the library of the Mage's Guild.

It is only passed down among the ancient warlock families, and a wild warlock like Hull has no chance of contacting it at all.

But then again, at such a cost, ancient magic rituals also have their benefits, once successful, the warlock will be able to completely activate the bloodline, truly transform into a dragon, maintain the dragon form for an infinite amount of time, and at the same time can change back to human form at will after a certain amount of time.

In addition, the combat power after the dragon transformation is the same as that of the real dragon, and it will not be a weakened version of the dragon as activated by the new ritual, and the dragon transformation time is short.

Many dragon vein warlocks have changed dragons that are only teenagers at first, and after the warlock's level continues to increase, the highest can only reach the youth stage, which is relatively chicken.

As the blood continues to boil, it brings not only pain to Hull, but also physical changes.

Its skin quickly transformed into a crystal transparent color, and the blood vessels, muscles, etc. underneath it were clearly visible, and then a dense protrusion appeared on the skin, like a strange tumor, which looked extremely terrifying and hideous.

At this time, Hull's overall shape resembles a mutated glass figure.

But as time passed, the magical flames burning on the altar continued to converge towards Hel's body, causing Hel's body to quickly change, transforming into a half-human, half-dragon form, and the transparent protrusions on his body quickly turned into pieces of crystal scales.
