Chapter 74: Blood decides everything
For a former monk, becoming an alien is probably the most uncomfortable thing.
No wonder Anthony's mentality is not like an immortal. For him, the curse of a blood-sucking creature does not bring about immortality, but only infinite sins and a real curse.
"This shows why Silin hates Alva so much. He enjoys immortality, and the side effects are borne by Anthony."
Anthony once said that Alva was very similar to Adam now, so he easily brought into Alva's mindset.
Is it enough to just produce immortal medicine? It is far from enough.
What he wants to achieve is a leap in human life span, without violating the laws of birth, old age, sickness and death, to essentially change humans and make humans an immortal species.
Therefore, this ability to live long is mostly hereditary.
"Xilin probably has something to do with Alva." Xilin is Anthony's niece, which means Xilin is the daughter of Anthony's peers. In addition to previous speculation, Xilin is likely to be Alva's daughter, a human immortal species that inherits the ability to live forever.
"It's just that there are some points that don't match." Adam frowned. Was Silin born before the research on immortality medicine was successful or after success?
What happened to Alva's servant Ai? According to Doug's information, Ai also drank immortal medicine.
"The problem with Teacher Anthony is that he doesn't want to live at all, but now there is some reason that supports him to continue to live." Adam thought of the words Anthony had warned him before.
There should be some things that are more important than life.
"Friendship." For Anthony, friendship is something more important than life, and it is friendship that supports Anthony to live until now.
At this moment, Adam couldn't help but hate Alva, because he hadn't come to see Anthony for a long time.
What a discomfort for Anthony, who supports himself in his life with friendship.
But Anthony never resented himself. When he, a student recommended by Alva, appeared, Anthony burst out with unprecedented enthusiasm, and taught Adam carefully despite his discomfort.
"If I remember correctly, if the blood-sucking creatures have not eaten for a long time, they will feel more and more uncomfortable and their condition will be worse. Doug once sent someone to investigate the Central Bell Tower. One of them disappeared and did not see Silin the next day. Anthony's face improved a lot, but his spirit was much worse."
Obviously that day, Silin went against Anthony's personal wishes and did something that was beneficial to Anthony, but Anthony didn't like.
Adam's judgment of Silin was correct. She was devoted to Anthony, but she also had her own personal wishes, and he did open a breakthrough from her.
Adam was in a strange mood now, and even inexplicably happy.
If Anthony is really an alien species, then as long as Anthony's disgust with his own bloodline is changed, will some things be solved?
"In this case, I may not need to rush to leave Loa and stay in the reflection tower..." As soon as the beautiful idea began, Adam threw it out of his mind.
Whether Anthony admits the alien species or not, he will leave Loya. His specialness has been revealed to Charia and others. As long as he comes to Loya, he will definitely get the message that he disguised as Adam.
The reflection tower may not be able to hide him. He may choose to hide it for Anthony, but Doug is hard to say.
"Not to mention that Alva is likely to tamper with me directly in order not to implicate Anthony." Adam would not forget the external curse that Alva put on him.
Adam can guarantee that once Alva learns his true situation, in order to keep Anthony's secret, he is likely to cast an external curse at all costs and use the curse to bring Adam out of the reflection tower.
Judging from previous contacts, Alva has been worried about Anthony, but why didn't he come to visit him for so long?
"He seemed surprised when he learned that Anthony was not in good health. He could basically be sure that Alva did not know about Anthony's hunger strike before this."
"That is to say, he only came to visit Anthony in the early stage of transformation. When Anthony developed sequelae of hunger strike, Alva never walked into the reflection tower again."
"Is it a disgust for aliens or guilt for old friends?" Adam guessed: "Or, Alva had other reasons, which made him afraid to see Anthony, and he was not willing to let Anthony and the others know about his current information."
"Or otherwise there would be no need for Alva to impose an external curse on purpose, so that I can blur my memories about Teacher Anthony when facing him."
"Is it because Alva did not regret his past behavior as she imagined, and was still conducting research on Chang Yam?" Adam thought of Ai's existence.
It was not impossible, Adam put himself into Alva's mind.
If it were him, his friends would be implicated because of his behavior, he would never stop researching, but would further study the immortal medicine and come up with ways to save his friends.
"So Ai is likely to be the result of subsequent research."
Adam thought, but felt that he didn't understand Alva's thoughts very much. Since this was the case, there was no need to avoid Anthony. After contacting these days, Adam knew that Anthony was the kind of enlightened person. As long as Alva's research was reasonable, Anthony would not stop him.
"Unless the production of immortality medicine is extremely inhumane." When Adam remembered his experiment, Anthony's warning was to maintain the necessary respect for the experimental subject.
As soon as this idea came out, Adam vaguely felt that he might have found the right path, but he still knew too little about the curse.
"Continue to study. Only if you have enough knowledge reserves, it is not difficult for me to reverse the production process of the Longevity Medicine." Adam put down his messy thoughts, completely entered the library, and began to find various curses.
It has been forty years since the development of the immortality medicine. At that time, Alva was able to research the immortality medicine based on a blood-sucking biological curse. Now he has various information from the past, and it should not be difficult to just introduce the process in reverse.
"The highest pursuit of curses outside the body is to understand the real name of each goal."
"The real name is the sum of all traces of an existence in this world. In theory, you can understand the real name of a target and understand everything about him through his traces."
"And even if you just touch the real name of the target, you can use this connection to curse the external body."
"A person's real name is constantly changing, because a person will keep leaving traces, and outsiders' views on him will continue to change."
"Sometimes, you can even feel that the person in the real name is really you?"
"Because an existence should be three-dimensional, besides yourself, there are other people's opinions about you."
"Maybe it is because the real name still has the opinions of others that the real name will also affect you, just as the opinions of others will also affect you."
"The correct step to touch your real name should start with touching yourself. First of all, you must understand what kind of person you are?"
"What kind of person do you think of others?"
"What is the meaning of being in this world?"
"By using the connection between oneself and oneself, after understanding the true name of oneself, one can realize the existence of the true name, and further touch and observe the existence of others."
Adam absorbed this knowledge and then grew up quickly.
After realizing that Anthony might be a alien species, Adam became more and more awake, and the world hated the alien species.
Even Anthony was the same. He hated his alien identity and refused to drink blood. Otherwise, as Anthony's powerful magician who condensed the ritual, he could live well no matter where he was. There was no need to shrink into the reflection tower and endure torture every day.
Bloodlines determine everything, and Anthony cannot escape this.
So Adam realized more clearly that there was a real barrier between humans and alien species.
