Chapter 1063: Founder of Blood Moon Clan

However, one should not be deceived by his appearance. Everyone around could tell that he was definitely a fierce and vicious figure of the Breezy Plains back in the day.

Seeing that Lin Li was looking over, the middle-aged man who acted like a noble smiled ceremoniously and stood up to bow a little. His actions were natural, and he didn’t seem to be pretentious at all.

“This is the founder of the Blood Moon Clan, the first president Sangeria. We’ve had some ties with each other back in the past, and I thought that he died long ago. I didn’t expect to see him here this time,” Elvis said, looking at Sangeria with a complicated gaze.

When the Blood Moon Clan and the Mithril Alliance were competing for interests in the Breezy Plains, they had gotten into plenty of conflicts, and the former even caused the Mithril Alliance to end up with only five families, though they originally had 13. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that they had an intense feud. However, Elvis was already in the Sanctuary-realm now, and there were naturally drastic changes in his state of mind. Besides, they had been coexisting in peace with the Mithril Alliance for years, so the hatred was no longer as intense.

The first president of the Blood Moon Clan, Sangeria, was said to have been the deputy head of the High Elves’ Blood Moon Guards during the Dark Age, and carried the blood of humans and High Elves. Unlike the bloodline of those in the Rotterdam Kingdom which was a forced fusion, his was a perfect fusion of pure human and High Elven bloodlines, and could not be inherited.

In fact, the entire Blood Moon Guards, or rather the current Blood Moon Clan, were simply an experiment conducted by the High Elven nobles. In addition to the fusion of the genetics of humans and High Elves, there were fusions of other bloodlines too. For example, the current president of the Blood Moon Clan, Mogadi, had genes fused with those of dragons.

At the end of the Dark Age, the races formed an alliance to rebel against the rule of the High Elves, and under the leadership of Geresco, the God of Mages, and other major forces, the unbeatable High Elven army was defeated. At that time, the Blood Moon Guards, who were from the High Elves’ side, and were called bastards by the rebels, naturally suffered heavy losses.

After the leader of the Blood Moon Guards, who was a true High Elven noble, was killed by the rebellion forces in the battlefield, the deputy head Sangeria took over the command of the team, and led the survivors out of the battlefield to hide in an unknown place until the High Elves had been completely wiped out. They then quietly left the Blood Moon Guards, and renamed themselves as the Blood Moon Clan, thus becoming a major force in the Breezy Plains which could contend with the Mithril Alliance.

Once Sangeria awakened the High Elven bloodline in his body, he would completely turn into a High Elf that possessed great magical talent. However, when not awakened, he would become purely human, though there were still traces of an elf in his appearance.

Lin Li was a true Sanctuary powerhouse now, so he could tell at a glance that Sangeria possessed the blood of the High Elves. Once the bloodline was awakened, he would explode with great power. Sangeria’s actual combat power was probably the strongest among the six pseudo-Sanctuary powerhouses, and not inferior to that of a real peak level-25 Sanctuary powerhouse.

In fact, Lin Li could tell that even in terms of human bloodline, Sangeria was rather talented. After all, he had been chosen by the High Elves to have his blood fused with that of the noble High Elves. Clearly, he was an elite among the humans. If not for the fusion, his accomplishments would have probably been beyond this.

After arranging for Sangeria to be in charge of a few Legendary powerhouses, Lin Li turned to look at the two other pseudo-Sanctuary powerhouses whose appearance was much less outstanding than Sangeria’s. Just like the elderly men around them, they had white hair and wrinkled faces. One was tall and muscular, while the other was like a chubby meatball.

The taller one was Gatana, who was an elder of a small family called the Reio Family. It was safe to say that no one in the conference hall knew who he was. In the Breezy Plains, the Reio Family was considered an extremely small family, and was probably inferior to the Malfa Family, let alone the five major families of the Mithril Alliance. Perhaps no one would have ever thought that such a small family would have a Sanctuary powerhouse. Although Gatana was only a pseudo-Sanctuary powerhouse, they could imagine that the Reio Family would soon develop.

After trying his best to recall, Elvis finally remembered who Gatana was. Although the Reio Family was not very famous, Gatana’s origin was definitely not small. Rumor had it that before the beginning of the Dark Age, there was a human kingdom in the Breezy Plains known as the Badillon Kingdom, and dominated half of the Breezy Plains, while Gatana was a royal of the kingdom.

At the end of the Dark Age, Gatana also led a team in a war against the High Elves, hoping to overthrow the High Elves’ rule and rebuild the Badillon Kingdom in the Breezy Plains. However, Gatana was only at the Legendary-level at that time. Unlike the Ledin Kingdom and Felan Kingdom which had the support of Sanctuary powerhouses, he did not command any authority in the rebellion alliance.

Hence, after the end of the Dark Age, Gatana’s dream of restoring the nation was unsurprisingly shattered by the resistance of the other factions. Afterwards, Gatana disappeared completely from the Breezy Plains, and the inconspicuous Reio Family was born.

However, during the end of the Dark Age, the appearance of a Legendary powerhouse could not cause much of a storm in such a heroic environment. Elvis only remembered Gargas because he had once gone out to contact the various forces during the Retribution Knight Rodhart’s rampage in the Breezy Plains in hopes of uniting everyone to retaliate against Retribution Knight and the Death Knights. The Mithril Alliance was also one of those he contacted.

However, at that point in time, the forces were quick to run in the face of the Retribution Knight Rodhart. How could they have gone out to risk their lives with Gatana? Legend had it that Gargas even managed to contact some people to fight with Retribution Knight. Of course, the outcome was conceivable. At that time, Elvis thought that Gatana must have been killed by Rodhart, and did not expect to see him again.

Clearly, Gatana did not give up on his dream to restore his nation. This time, after stepping into the Sanctuary-realm, he felt that he was powerful enough to fulfill his dream. Hence, he took the opportunity to reappear in front of everyone.

On the other hand, the chubby old man who resembled a meatball was named Cardson, and did not belong to any force, though he did seem to have a wide network of connections. It seemed that he was very close to everyone in the conference hall. As the elder of the Mithril Alliance, Elvis naturally was no stranger to Cardson. Hence, he introduced him to Lin Li almost without thinking.

In fact, Cardson was somewhat related to Lin Li. Firstly, he was also from the Jarrosus Guild of Magic, but he’d joined it hundreds of years before Andoine did. However, when he left Jarrosus Guild of Magic, his strength was not very outstanding, so Lin Li didn’t hear much about him when he was studying in the Guild of Magic.

After going to the Breezy Plains, Cardson was very fortunate to have become a disciple of the Ashen Warlock Roland, but of course that dated back to almost 1,000 years. God knew why Ashen Warlock would accept such a sociable disciple who was never satisfied with his status quo.

However, although he had a teacher like the Ashen Warlock in the Breezy Plains, Cardson had never tried to obtain any benefits for himself using the Ashen Warlock’s name. In fact, if someone hadn’t exposed that fact unintentionally, no one would’ve known about his relationship with the Ashen Warlock.

Lin Li was even more surprised by Cardson’s profession, or rather his career. In the Breezy Plains, when people mentioned Cardson, the first thing that came to mind would not be a Legendary powerhouse, but the best chef and gourmet in the Breezy Plains. Some even called him the Ambrosial God of the Breezy Plains.

Unlike the hidden powerhouses of other forces, Cardson had never been in seclusion. Instead, he had been running a restaurant in Roland City that was named after him. He was both the owner and the chef. However, the threshold to enter his restaurant was very high. It was not a matter of money, but whether or not he felt that they were fated. Patrons would also have to visit with precious and rare ingredients. Otherwise, even the castellan of Roland City did not have the right to enter and have some water.

That was also the reason that Lin Li had never heard of “Cardson’s Restaurant” during his multiple visits to Roland City, let alone taste the delicious food made by the Ambrosial God himself.

However, Cardson was not an unambitious good-for-nothing who was merely living each day as it passed. Food was his highest pursuit, and he was willing to take all risks and pay all consequences for food. In fact, he even told someone that if he had to face an ancient wyrm, he would want to bite off a piece of meat from it, just to have a taste of it.

Cardson actually put it into practice too. Over the past 1,000-plus years, he had probably eaten everything in Anril.
