Age of Adepts

A 6th rank Star Swallowing Beast died in battle....

The legions of alienated beasts sent by the Calamity Lords had been scattered....

The billet of the Austrian Emperor Agassi appears in the Floating City of Truth....

Even Grim couldn't help but frown at the string of information.

This kind of otherworldly battlefield ordinary 4th rank witches were simply unwilling to participate, and one of the main reasons was that it was too difficult to grasp the level of control over the battle.

Originally, with the strength of Grim's team, there weren't many 4th level Sorcerers who wanted to find the strongest person capable of killing them inside the battlefield. However, as the major camps extended their black hands into the Morian Plane one after another, the intensity and layers of this Plane War were skyrocketing.

Don't look at the fact that Grim and the others, as 4th level sorcerers, could already be considered the top level of warfare within the bit. But if they suddenly encountered those guys who were acting like pigs and eating tigers when they were on the rampage, their fate would not be much better than the retreating arcane masters.

Therefore, since breaking into the Morian Dimension, Grim's men had kept a low profile.

If it wasn't for those damn 'attack' missions handed down by the main team, I'm afraid Grim and the others wouldn't even want to participate in a pointless battle.

Especially now that they heard that even a Star Swallowing Beast with a rank of up to 6 had been compromised in the Morian Plane, their hearts would only become more preoccupied.

"The origin of these Aberration Beasts..." inquired Grim in a low voice.

"They belong to a powerful calamity creature called the Lord of the Polar Night, and are the peripheral eyes and ears sent out by the other side. We've probably poked a hornet's nest by acting rashly this time!" Lisa Qiu's face was no longer smiling, her face was solemn.

"What level is that Extreme Night Lord?" The Holly Wizard asked anxiously.

"A 6-step... it's a 6-step too!" Qiu Lisa spat under her breath and sighed for the bad luck of the few of you, "However, you don't have to worry too much. That Auror Night Lord's original body is still fighting the Austrian Empire outside the bit barrier, and the only thing that entered the bit is a 4th stage billet that it has polluted and modified, so it's not yet a fatal threat to us!"

Hearing this, the Holly Wizard was only slightly relieved.

Those Calamity creatures were simply synonymous with chaos and brutality, and their soul origins had been strengthened by the Calamity Bit's will to contaminate and become cannon fodder for the Calamity Lords' foreign conquests and invasions.

Therefore, with these guys, there was no possibility of communication or cooperation at all!

"Any idea why they're here?" Grim frowned thoughtfully.

"They originally assembled a large force to capture that Floating City of Truth, but they were scattered by the Orbital Empire side. As a result, those low-level Calamity Lords have scattered, each looking for a target they're interested in attacking. Although I was unable to extract a complete roadmap of the attack from the brains of those alienated beasts, judging from the route they traveled all the way through, I'm afraid it overlaps with our attack target!" Lisa Qiu said with anxiety on her face.

"Ruijing Garden Floating City?" Grim chimed in.

Of course, it was the only place that could draw these calamitous creatures here.

Didn't they risk nine lives to cross the bit barrier for the sake of slaughtering and harvesting life energy and souls? And where is there a quality of life energy and souls that can compare to a floating city that gathers a large number of arcane apprentices and arcane masters?

After breaking free from the panic of suddenly hearing about the Calamity Lords, the Holly Wizard's mind immediately came alive again.

"What do you think... is it possible for the three of us to work together to kill that 4th stage Calamity? I can hear that star beasts and calamity creatures are the best at absorbing bit surface origin. They've been intruding into the interior of the bit plane for so long that they might have already looted some source material..."

At the mention of source prime, Grim and Qiu Lisa's eyes couldn't help but shine.

Seriously speaking, source prime was very significant to all 4th level witches.

If there was source prime, Grim's parsing of the Laws of Flame would definitely progress much faster. For Qiu Lisa, the source mass would also improve the fusion of her and her brother's souls, allowing them to get rid of this awkward situation of not being able to control their bodies at the same time sooner.

"These Calamity Little Lords are surrounded by an astonishing number of alienated beasts at every turn, I'm afraid that if we want to hit it..." of the three of them, Qiu Lisa was undoubtedly the weakest, so she hesitantly looked towards Grim.

"I think we can try!" Grim pondered, "When Calamity creatures reach the level of Little Lords, their internal struggle brutalizes even more than their external enemies. Therefore, the 4th rank Calamity Little Lords never act alone. Thus, we have an advantage in terms of the number of 4th rank..."

Hearing this, Qiu Lisa's eyes couldn't help but light up.

"Moreover, it overlaps with our attack target and will definitely clash with each other. Rather than being forced to fight then, it's better to be more proactive and find that 4th Order Aurous Night Splitter, take it out, and salvage some benefits..."

"OK! I think it's a sound idea." The Holly Sorcerer smiled heedlessly, "We've signed an oath contract after all, and can cannon fire in unison. Gathering the battle power of 3 4th rank wizards, we still can't handle that beast?"

With that, the Holly Witch's gaze went to Kewlissa, who hurriedly nodded her head to state her position.

"I'll take your word for it. With three against one, I also hold up our side's chances of winning a bit more..."

Only then did the Holly Wizard nod his head in satisfaction.

Only after nightfall did the three parties separate.

After taking a casual turn along the village's loam-paved path and finding a relatively clean and tidy wooden hut, Grim stepped over the wooden fence that had been trampled to the ground and came to the front of the house, gently pushing open the broken door panel that was only half a valve.

There was a creak.

The wooden door opened, revealing the messy furnishings inside.

The people who originally lived here didn't look rich, and the furniture in the room was simple and outdated. Coupled with the intrusion of the alienated beast just now, it had also stirred up a mess inside, and all the household furnishings had been smashed and dumped all over the floor.

Grim shook his head slightly.

Out of long-standing human habits, he still preferred the clean and orderly set, and the scene in front of him clearly did not put him in a cheerful mood.

Extending a single finger, the fingertip condensed a faint red mane, and under the effect of the bizarre sorcery, the scattered furniture slowly floated up from the ground and returned to its original position as if it had been manipulated by a large invisible hand.

Grim snorted lightly, and his fingers that glittered with red mane quickly drew in the air, condensing a golden rune of sorcery. As the rune drifted, it turned into a strange blue-white whirlwind that blew in all directions of the cabin, and all the dust, filth, and debris disappeared in an instant.

The entire wooden house was like a magical hut in a fairy tale that instantly became gloriously golden and spotlessly clean.

Grim turned all the rooms in the house, and after selecting the bedroom and the laboratory, he began to make some simple arrangements.

Five 1st rank wind spirits were released to float around the perimeter over the village to act as eyes, and two 2nd rank rock puppets were released to guard the front of the hut to act as bodyguards. It was only then that Grim settled down in his room and began his daily essential meditation.

As spell casters, meditation remained the most important means for them to continuously exercise their mental strength and raise their spiritual ceiling!

Only compared to when it was at a lower level, the progress of meditation now was simply tortoise-speed, and often the hard meditation of adults for months and months would only result in the slightest progress in mental strength. That's why many shamans would try to use external objects to enhance the meditation effect by this time.

Otherwise, that moving threshold of mental strength was enough to drive any hard-hearted sorcerer mad!

Nightfall was quickly approaching.

Five 1st Order Wind Spirits were floating nearly a hundred meters above the sky, scanning the surrounding movements while monitoring everything that was happening in the small village below them.

Although their presence was hidden, it was impossible for them to conceal their perception from the other two witches.

Recognizing the vague scent of Grim on them, and the fact that they were far away from their chosen dwelling, Holly and Qiu Lisa ignored them as well.

Although the three were in the same squad and bound by an oath contract, no wizard would put their safety in the hands of another wizard.

Therefore, after that Holly Wizard chose the largest hut in the small village, he also took out a strange magic cube from his storage space and threw it onto the ground. Immediately, more than a dozen exquisite puppets with a human appearance crawled out of it.

They were both male and female in appearance, wearing the costumes of singers, maids, slaves, and cooks, and they were diligently busy as soon as they came out. The servants cleaned the room and brought out a set of clean tables and chairs from the cube to replace the original old wooden tables and chairs. The maids, meanwhile, rolled out a beautifully styled dining cart and soon had brand new dishes and utensils set out in front of the Holly Witch.

In addition to putting out these service-type magic dolls, Holly Witch also took out a silver block and threw it on the ground, then in a burst of cracking and clacking sounds of strange assemblies, it morphed and transformed into a metallic magic statue whose entire body was flowing with silver light.

This metal idol was only 3 meters tall and short, holding a shield in its left hand and a heavy sword in its right, and its body was sculpted to look like a steel knight. Beneath the all-metal armor, a pair of scarlet lights shone vividly, unlike the other statues, which were not so rigid and stagnant.

And its overflowing breath was even as high as the peak of the 3rd stage, even more powerful than the elemental magic puppet that Grim had crafted with his own hands.

With this steel knight guarding him, the Holly Wizard put all his thoughts aside and began to enjoy the otherworldly food meal with all his heart and soul, admiring the strange and otherworldly songs and dances of those magic puppet singers.
