Chapter 44 Seed of Immortality

The next day, dawn began to dawn, and skylarks swayed in the breeze. Ren opened the blinds, felt the fresh morning air, and felt refreshed.

Well, it’s another day full of energy!

Kesha woke up early. After Ren finished washing, she had prepared breakfast for him and was washing clothes in the laundry sink on the balcony.

In the Nokman Empire, mothers would teach their daughters how to wash and cook when they were young. Girls there were basically proficient in all kinds of housework. At least they would have no problem becoming housewives when they grow up.

Although Kesha is called the Valkyrie and has been receiving strict training from her teacher "Sword Master of the Sky" since she was a girl, she can still do housework and has good cooking skills.

This was her mother's request. In the traditional culture of the Nokman Empire, women have always been diligent, thrifty, gentle and virtuous.

Even the old goat said that if you have enough promiscuity in the future and want to get married, you should find a woman from Knockman. As for finding a woman from Farrowland, it is better not to get married.

Renn is lucky, Kesha has a strong personality, but she still has a tender side, but most people can't see it.

Kesha put on a small suit jacket for him, straightened the collar, smoothed the wrinkles on the clothes, kissed him, and said softly: "Remember to come back early, you can take the book home to read in the afternoon, I will prepare it

For lunch.”

There is indeed a purpose in getting close to Ren, but she has no intention of deceiving him. She will put away her arrogance in front of her boyfriend and show her tender side.

"OK."

Ren nodded, feeling an indescribable and wonderful feeling in his heart. It seemed that this place was no longer just a place to live, but a warm harbor where he could stay.

He rode a mountain bike to school. Kesha did not go out with him this time. After all, she was a princess of a powerful empire, and it was only once. Always appearing in public with Ren could easily cause trouble.

Apart from anything else, there are many young talents in the Nokman Empire who are unwilling to give up on Kesha, including fourth-level masters. Once they become jealous, it will be a headache, and there is no telling how many bloody things will happen.

As the school bell rang, Ren entered the classroom on time. His classmates were not surprised. He did this every time. Even if he was late, the teacher would not care.

Renn came here just for the morning theory class. He didn't even need to take the exam. In terms of combat effectiveness, many teachers couldn't beat him.

The person in class today is Keira. As a third-level white wizard, she is still charming and graceful at the age of 42.

She was wearing a one-step skirt, a white women's suit, and a pair of red high heels. She had a smile on her face and was obviously in a good mood.

For some reason, Ren felt that she was a little radiant, like a flower that had just been watered, but he didn't know who nourished her.

Old Goat: Of course it’s me. This is a laborious job that ordinary people can’t do.

Kayla opened the textbook, cleared her throat, and said in a gentle voice: "Students, open your notebook. Today's lesson is very important and we have to take a test!"

Ren pulled out his pen and opened the 50-page notebook, which was half full. Although he entered the classroom every day, he was very serious in class.

"Today we are going to talk about the lifespan of demons. Many demons are not much different from humans in appearance, but their lifespans are much longer than humans..."

Most of the demons are immortals. According to scholars' research, the lifespan of a baron-level demon is more than 200 years, which is comparable to a fourth-level master-level transcendent.

The lifespan of a viscount-level demon is about 300 years, the earl-level demon can live for 500 years, which is equivalent to a human saint, the marquis-level demon can live about seven or eight hundred years, and the duke-level demon can live about 1,000 years.

As for the Dark Duke and the Prince, humans don't know yet how long they live. It is estimated to be around 1,500 years, but the monarch cannot judge.

Keira's expression was a little serious: "In fact, it is very difficult to know the specific age of a demon because they can fall into a deep state of sleep, similar to hibernation..."

This is also one of the biggest differences between demons and humans. During the sleep period, the life of the demons slows down greatly, only one-tenth of the "active period".

Take the vampire Duke Frank as an example. The Sun King was a character from 2,000 years ago, and the vampire Duke's lifespan is about 1,000 years ago. Under normal circumstances, he would have died of old age long ago, and it is impossible for him to live until now.

In fact, most demons are accustomed to moving during the "wave period", which does not mean that they cannot act during the "balance period".

During the wave period, the psychic energy in the air will become very active, suitable for demons to carry out activities, while during the balance period, they will feel uncomfortable and weak.

Just like amphibians leaving pools and swamps and coming to dry land, they will inevitably become a little sluggish and even find it difficult to survive after staying there for a long time.

Because it can sleep, the age of a demon becomes difficult to calculate. Take a baron-level demon as an example. Under normal circumstances, he can live for two hundred years, but if he keeps sleeping, he can sleep for a full 2,000 years before dying.

.

So, who is older between a baron who has been active for 1,500 years and a marquis who has not been active for 500 years?

During the period of slumber, the demons actually have no consciousness, their strength will not become stronger, and their knowledge and experience will not increase. On the contrary, they will be relatively weak when they first wake up, so...

Keira picked up the chalk and wrote on the blackboard while saying: "Therefore, the demons themselves calculate their age in this way, adding one-tenth of the active period time to the sleeping period."

For example, if a baron sleeps for 1,500 years and is active for 50 years, his age is 150 plus 50, which is 200 years old. This is also the lifespan that he can have if he has been active, so that he will not age.

Very confusing.

However, there is also a problem, that is, many viscounts and earls have existed even older than marquis and dukes.

This is also why demons have never had the tradition of respecting their seniors. Anyway, whoever has the bigger fist will have higher seniority.

Otherwise, if a baron wakes up after sleeping for 1,200 years, can he be the father of a marquis who has only existed for 500 years?

Among demons, existence time and age are two different things.

Grand Duke Alvis has been sleeping for a thousand years, but he has only been active for 80 years. According to the devil's calculation, he is 180 years old, which is very young. However, he is a character who appeared in the late Fourth Age and has not existed for a long time.

short.

As get out of class was about to end, Keira warned very solemnly: "Compared to demons, human beings have a very short lifespan and cannot sleep. In history, there have been many strong or heroic figures.

In their later years, they chose to seek refuge with the demon descendants and let the demon descendants use their source blood to transform them into demon descendants in order to extend their lives.

This is why there are many masters among demons, and after we gained the upper hand, it was difficult to find them hidden among humans..."

Who in the world can live forever? When a high-level transcendent reaches the pinnacle and enjoys the glory and wealth, they find that their time is short. Can they withstand the temptation of immortality?

Fortunately, the price for a demon to transform a human into a demon is very high. The higher the level of the transcendent, the more advanced source blood is needed, and not just one drop.

Otherwise, humans would not be able to play at all. Let me ask, who doesn’t want to live longer?

Demons can hide well after being defeated in the Fifth Age or even the Sixth Age, not only with the help of those fallen or evil human supers.

A large part of the reason is that many people could not withstand the temptation of immortality and were transformed, and then covered their tracks or arranged identities for the demons.

After class, Ren didn't go to the library, but went straight to the Witcher Association branch. The old goat said yesterday that he had something important to discuss.

At this moment, in the Kingdom of Bohemia, in the city of Via, Baron Lerol was sitting in his study with a sad face, shaking a glass of watermelon juice.

"squeak!"

There was a sound of pushing the door open, and the baron quickly sat upright with a smile on his face. It was his son Sean who came in.

"Father, I would like to invite my friends from the University of Luxemburg to my home and hold a small banquet." The reckless Sean smiled and said that his father had a bad temper when he was a child, but now he is easy to talk to, so he probably won't refuse.

Baron Lerol smiled gently: "The decoration of the hall at home is a bit outdated. If you want to hold a banquet, I can help you book a large private room at the Ball Hotel."

"Oh, that's great! Thank you, Dad." Sean looked a little excited. It would be better to go to a hotel, but it would also cost a lot.

The baron maintained a fatherly smile and watched his son leave. After a long time, he sighed, a layer of gray mist floated in his eyes, and an illusory skeleton appeared on the surface of his body.

He shook the watermelon juice in his glass with a look of despair on his face. He was a fourth-level demon, and his strength was no less than Wesley, who was killed by Keisha and Hal.

The Baron was actually possessed by him 12 years ago, but Harvey, the fourth-level demon, was not living a good life. He was worried and trembling every day.

He was afraid that when he woke up, he would be lying on the operating table of scholars. It was said that someone recently bought the bones of demons and ghosts at a high price.

In fact, this container is not suitable for him at all. It feels uncomfortable to wear children's shoes like an adult, but he does not dare to change them and does not dare to go out every day.

I want to die, I want to die so much! Another day when I want to hit the wall!

Why did Prince Christian send him to this hellish place? Let alone causing trouble, he has been drinking watermelon juice for 12 years.

Harvey drank the watermelon juice in the cup in one gulp. This is blood, this is delicious blood! He kept hinting to himself.

In this hellish place where even monsters and ghosts can't stay, he relies on hypnotizing himself every day to survive.
