Chapter 167

Although Lina's understanding of dragons was limited to Okov's daily life, she also knew that dragons took a long time to grow, and that their growth was relatively slow. But now, she was shocked to find that her master had grown so much in just seven days. And in the deliberately shrinking dragon's aura, she felt a more terrifying power besides the cold.

Adam got up and walked out, asking, "Have any strangers entered the Makalu Mountains recently?"

"No, but I found some unknown peepers outside the mountains. They seemed to be afraid and didn't dare to enter the mountains. Without your orders, I didn't dare to act rashly."

This was a very normal thing. Every area that was confirmed to be inhabited by dragons would attract a lot of attention. Either they wanted to take advantage of the situation, or they wanted to stay far away from it out of fear. No matter what kind of thoughts they had, this kind of spying was unavoidable.

Lina paused, then continued, "Also, our actions have already caused the dissatisfaction of the other tribes. If this continues, I'm afraid …"

"It's still too weak." Adam sighed. It wasn't just his own strength, but the forces under his control were also too weak. The feeling of being tied down was really uncomfortable.

Only a few forest elf slaves were left beside the ice spikes in the center of the tribe, using their innate abilities to maintain the life of the blood-making machines. Their eyes were numb, and they silently retreated under Lina's orders. None of them raised their heads to look at Adam.

"Master, what should we do next?"

Adam walked up to an ice spike and poked his finger into it to extract a lump of blood. He then grabbed Lina and made a cut on her arm. After comparing the two types of blood, he found that the special information contained in it was indeed much stronger, but it wasn't perfect. Even without sophisticated equipment, Adam could clearly feel the impurities in it.

But it was enough for now. These ordinary forest elves could only do this much. If he wanted to improve it further, he would need better samples.

For example, Lina, who had undergone a bloodline upgrade?

Thinking this, Adam rubbed his fingertips, and all the ice spikes lit up slightly. Then, a pipe extended from the bottom of the blood trough to the laboratory. Adam grabbed Lina and flew towards the laboratory. "Next, I'll change your blood."

The second stage had nothing to do with magic or mystery. It was just using ordinary methods to inject the purified blood into Lina's body to replace her original blood. It was a little troublesome, but very simple.

Hundreds of pipes were fixed in the air, leaving enough space for Lina. Adam changed into a protective suit again, then said to Lina, "It'll be very uncomfortable later. I'll temporarily cut off your pain nerves, but it won't be of much use."

"It's okay, master."

Adam nodded, satisfied with her attitude, then pointed his dragon claw at her. Lina was fixed in the air. "Very good. I hope you can hold on. If you die, all the slaves you contracted will die with you."

Lina was stunned. Before she had time to think about what this sentence meant, she felt an ice blade cutting open her clothes, cutting open her skin. Then, a sharp tube suddenly grew out of the hundreds of official roads, deeply stabbing into various parts of her body.

Adam was a little disappointed. Due to the lack of equipment, there was no way to record such an interesting experiment, and there was no way to observe the rejection reaction. After all, the blood that was being injected into Lina's body came from hundreds of different forest elves. He didn't know what their blood types were, and whether or not they could fuse together.

However, the forest elves were still a race with supernatural powers. This problem should be solved by her body's immune system.

This was an indescribable feeling. It wasn't pain, but it was even more terrifying than pain.

Adam had cut off her pain receptors, but Lina was completely awake. She could clearly feel that there were foreign objects inserted into her body. Blood was flowing in reverse, flowing in reverse, and flowing chaotically from various parts of her body, while new blood was rapidly being injected into her body to fill up the gaps. Old and new blood were fighting in her body. Part of it wanted to take over the territory, while the other part was unwilling to give it up. They were using Lina's body as a battlefield, engaging in a battle that mortals couldn't understand.

Her life force was rapidly being replenished at the same rate. Lina watched herself die, but also saw herself being reborn.

This kind of mental torture was enough to make anyone go crazy.

The rejection reaction was also intense. Although Lina didn't know how to describe this reaction, the uncomfortable feeling wouldn't lie.

Her organs, muscles, cells, neurons, every part of her body was rioting, trying their best to stop the invaders from the outside world. Her body was dark red and gradually turned purple. Irregular patterns and patches appeared on her body. Her body temperature rose sharply, her blood became viscous, her cell division slowed down, and her organs began to expand and contract unstably, as if they were about to explode.

"Ahhhhh!" Lina screamed in pain. Right now, she wanted nothing more than to kill herself.

Adam released a cold aura towards Lina, helping her stabilize her body that was on the verge of collapse and alleviating some of the discomfort. However, this was all Adam could do. Whether or not the bloodline upgrade would succeed would depend on Lina's willpower and luck.

If it was calculated based on the amount of blood in her body, in just a few minutes, Lina had used up more than ten times the amount of blood she had. Most of this blood was expelled from her body, and only a small portion successfully entered her body. After this purer blood successfully took over her body, it displayed an astonishing adaptability and offensive ability.

They began to systematically expel the old blood and accept the new blood, then rushed towards her heart.

* Pop! *

After a crisp sound, Lina's heart exploded. At the same time, the new blood surged and condensed. Green energy began to erupt from every part of Lina's body, forming a new heart in the blink of an eye.

The green energy seeped out of her body, shattering the ice crystal path one by one. Lina floated in the air, surrounded by energy, her face couldn't be seen clearly.

Adam waved his hand to disperse the tubes. He stared at the green light without blinking and muttered to himself, "Did she succeed? Her energy index is increasing. It sure is easy for a bloodline creature to obtain power. "

The green light dissipated outwards, and the plants that were pressed down by the icy laboratory stubbornly broke through the layer of ice. They grew wildly in the laboratory, and the towering trees outside began to glow with the light of spring, their branches intertwined and covered the sky.

Ten minutes later, a naked Lina appeared from the green light. The moment she landed, flowers bloomed everywhere.
