Age of Adepts

Chapter 0852 - Grim's Complicity

Alice chose to personally receive Grim at the door of the teleportation room.

Looking stern and dignified, Alice couldn't help but chuckle lightly.

"What are you so nervous about? Did you come here to fight?"

Grim's eyebrows raised in a double entendre, "I'm just here to fight!"

Alice was first startled, then smiled and trembled.

These years of noble enjoyment of glory and Gauntlet experience, but also let Alice quickly faded away the youthfulness, become more mature and beautiful, more deep and restrained.

With a clear and unrestrained petulant laughter, that palm-sized elemental elf, Helen, emerged from Alice's high hair temples.

As soon as she saw that it was Grim, she immediately fluttered her thin, cicada-winged little wings and flew in front of him, forked her waist and pointed her wand point at the other party, squealing softly, "It really is you! You must be thinking that you've become powerful, so you've come here to flaunt your power. Well, let me tell you, with me Helen here, I will never let you bully Alice..."

"How did you know I was here to bully Alice?" Grim pretended to be appalled at the question.

Alice, who was smiling tenderly just now, immediately made a big red face, staring at Grim with a coquettish face, gently grinding her teeth.

"Hurrah hurrah hurrah... You big bad guy, I knew you had bad intentions for Alice... Just you wait, I'll make you suffer a little..."

Before he could finish, Helen waved the wand in her hand, and a faint glow struck into the stone wall beside her.

With the next flex of his fingers, Grim Ug grunted, only to feel a heavy weight around him, a massive pulling force coming from the witch tower beneath him, intending to crush him above the floor.

Gravitation?!

If it was just the gravity magic cast by the elf Helen, trying to suppress a 3rd level wizard would be a fool's errand. But Helen was also smart enough to make full use of her witch tower authority and extracted some of the magic power of the Fate Gauntlet to suppress Grim.

That was what made him feel the heavy pressure of a mountain!

Grim was not a refining sorcerer who excelled with his physical *body* strength, although the continuous advancement also made him strong enough to match those who were new to the 2nd stage, but the elemental added body clearly lacked the refining sorcerer's handiness that he had worked so hard to achieve.

After a muffled grunt, Grim looked changed, Woody pulled the collar of his witch robe open and saw a faintly flickering strange rune on his shoulder.

Grim couldn't help but be secretly appalled.

After becoming a 3rd rank sorcerer, not to mention the dramatic increase in attack defense, just the vast elemental power, life energy and spiritual consciousness that he had immersed himself in was already able to slightly distort the life force field around his body. Ordinary sorcery would hardly be able to attack Grim's original body.

But the elf in front of her, Helen, was truly an elemental elf, and was able to directly apply sorcery effects on Grim's body through his vitality field.

Such a bizarre ability, I'm afraid only an elemental elf could easily do so!

But now was not the time to discuss the elemental elf's strange abilities.

Being unprepared for a gravity spell with an energy intensity of 300 degrees, even Grim's 20 points of strength and 22 points of physique were a bit overwhelming.

Grim could only frantically gather fire power to fight this strange gravity.

However, it was still a bit weak to fight against a Witch Tower on its own.

With the increasing gravity on his body, Grim's face reddened, his black eyes sprayed magical flames a foot long, and his slightly trembling legs and knees creaked with a violent stress sound.

Only defense not counterattack is obviously not able to deal with this 'mischievous' elf, Grim reached out at Helen gently imaginary grasp, a large puff of flame from the void, quickly wrapped the other side. Only this magic fire was drawn but not sent, and although it trapped the other party it didn't really harm it.

If it wasn't for the fact that Helen was Alice's contracted creature, I'm afraid Grim would have launched a counterattack at the first moment of the attack.

Although this was the Tower of Fate, and the other party was an elf that specialized in elemental power, the attack of a 3rd level Fire Witch was not something it could easily withstand.

"Undo the gravity spell...or I'll carbon grill the elf!" Grim's fierce eyebrows intimidated the other party.

It was a pity that this elemental elf, who had never experienced personnel before, was also a 'tumbler'. Although she was frightened to tears by Grim's ferociousness, the tiny wand in her hand did not relax.

"You... you... bully me... I won't let you go..."

Even though she was surrounded by magic fire, Helen was trembling with fear, but she still struggled to wave her wand and induced the magical energy of the Fate Witch Tower to be added to that strange gravity rune.

The next moment, Grim was truly tragic!

The gravity on his body suddenly doubled, which caused Grim, who was barely able to support himself a moment ago, to weaken his legs and almost fall to his knees.

Forced to do so, Grim roared and burst out with a burning field of flames.

In order not to hurt the elf and Alice on his side, Grim managed to manipulate the burning field without involving the two of them. With the Burning Field isolating the magical energy, the effect of the gravity spell acting on Grim's body was immediately reduced by half, and only then did Grim gently wipe away the cold sweat from his forehead and stand up straight again.

"Alright, Helen, you stop fooling around!" Alice laughed as she shook her head, "If he hadn't let you, you would have been hurt! Are you going to keep making a scene?"

Elemental Pokemon, however, are powerful, but their power is also based on the power of their hosts.

Return Magic, Magic Halved, Elemental Resonance, Elemental Linkage, Superior Resistance, Spiritual Focus....

The vast majority of the magical abilities they possessed were of an auxiliary nature. The stronger the host, the more powerful their auxiliary boosted abilities would be. But when it came to their ability to fight on their own, Elementals clearly couldn't be a match for a rank 3 Combat Fire Witch!

Alice grabbed Helen, who was still messing around, cut off her telepathic resonance with the Fate Gauntlet Elemental Pool, and flicked her forehead with her finger as punishment, finally ending this meaningless 'battle'.

"This isn't the 'downfall' you've discussed, is it?" Grim couldn't help but smile bitterly as he touched his nose.

That short 'battle' just now, if he was a little weaker, was the end of 'kneeling on the ground' and singing conquest. At that time, he would be a little short of breath if he wanted to march majestically to conquer Alice again.

"Who told you to want to run and bully me as soon as you grew a skill..." grumbled Alice with a grumbling face as well.

Grim couldn't help but be slightly startled, "You... already know what I'm here for?"

"Well, don't you just want Alice to be your mistress? Delusional..." the little elf Helen who was caught in Alice's hands was still angrily waving her little fist.

If Alice hadn't stopped her, she would have wanted to rush up and have an all out fight.

Grim smiled awkwardly.

This... was indeed his main purpose for coming here!

What kind of 'love between a man and his concubine', what kind of 'eyebrow to eyebrow', these things Grim was not interested in all of them. The only thing he was thinking about now was how to turn Alice into a 'bed', so that she could truly become his woman.

Although the usual Alice showed affection and righteousness to herself, no amount of verbal 'love' was as good as a real 'physical' relationship that was more porcelain. So, with the good news of this promotion, Grim did have the intention to make sure that the relationship between the two was established.

It would also save them from guessing all day long!

With the power of fate, Alice who had insight into Grim's 'heart' was also ashamed and angry, but there was also a hint of sweetness on top of her annoyance. Such complicated feelings made her also somewhat at a loss, and could only take a fierce glance at Grim and said helplessly, "You come with me! There are some things I should tell you plainly..."

"Don't go with him...this bad guy is just waiting to take advantage of you!" The elf squealed with a straight neck.

Alice, her face swirling with a faint blush, flicked the elf's forehead again, attached a whisper to her ear, and released her.

Without stirring any further, the elf gave Grim a vicious glare, turned and flapped her wings scattering magical fluorescence all the way and disappeared into the distance.

"You and me come on!" Alice sighed softly and led the way in front.

Grim followed behind her, watching the other's swaying stride and couldn't help but be enchanted.

Alice may not be as sexy and hot as Mary, but she is a rare beauty.

And with these years of enjoyment and honor, Alice has also cultivated a very unique personal charm and style. There are both the innocence and enthusiasm of the young girl, but also the vicissitudes of maturity and stability ... ... All kinds of charming places, will be unconsciously intoxicated.

However, Grim was disappointed that Alice led him not to a hidden abode, but the topmost floor of the Tower of Destiny astrological platform.

It was the time of day when the golden sun was burning brightest, and the entire top floor of the astrological platform had become a golden ocean. Standing here and looking out, there was no visual barrier at all.

Because of Alice's arrival, the magical witchcraft array set under the floor of the astrological platform was slowly activated, turning the surrounding tower walls into a completely transparent state. The people in the astrological ceremony could see the stars in the sky in an unobstructed view.

It was the first time Grim had visited Alice's astrological station, and he couldn't help but feel fascinated.

I can imagine, in the night, when the stars are low, bright stars, Alice standing alone on the astrological platform, the tranquility and profoundness, the body and mind set into the endless starry sky of the strange feeling, must be beautiful!

But no matter how beautiful an astrological station is, it's not a good place to talk about love, right?

Grim muttered angrily.
