Age of Adepts

Working hard to get Mary's boiling mind out of her head, Grimm chips it back into the Demon Alligator Hunter's control nucleus.

Everything around me suddenly went silent. When Grim's perception extends to the surrounding strange world of endless earth elements with the help of the puppet nucleus, any instability above the earth can trigger the infinite ripples of earth elements.

However, this ripple is extremely weak and occurs only between particles of earth elements, so if it is not an earthly organism, it is difficult to perceive the subtlety of distant motions through this change.

But Grim did it!

When he perceived immersion in that strange world, any slight ground vibration within 100 meters of the square, even the sound of a snake crawling in the nest, he could perceive it through subtle spiritual sensations among particles of earth elements, and then form a spiritual projection in his mind that was similar to reality.

Due to his mental limitations, this perceived range can extend up to 100 meters away, beyond this range, can only vaguely perceive the direction the vibration is coming from, but it is difficult to replicate the scene near the source directly in your mind as before.

On the ground, the area is 100 meters away or too short. Any apprentice of a sorcerer who climbs a distance can see a dozen miles or even close to a hundred miles if he can fly halfway. But under the thick rock formations and sandstone soil, the 100-metre surveillance is already a remarkably wide area.

You know, in the underground world, two people across thick rock cave walls, even if they're only 10 meters away in a straight line, I'm afraid it's hard to spot each other. This strange place, the darker the hole, the higher the doped metal composition in the rock formation, the greater the interference on mental perception and witchcraft detection. So there's no special means, just a thin layer of rock walls, and there's a lot of examples where we can't find each other.

After all, silent diving and dark vision are basic skills that all intelligent creatures living underground must possess.

Like a dreamer immersed in his dreams, Grimm muttered to himself, describing his perceived surroundings. All of a sudden, his body shook, and the impatient voice of the faint mosquito flies entered Mariel's ear.

“Seventeen degrees southeast, at a distance of 100 meters, two human beings, perceived a strong elemental aura, initially judged an apprentice of witches. ”

Mary's figure was stiff and the eyes of the gorilla narrowed slightly.

The direction of the source of the earthquake was there, and now two sudden sorcerer apprentices come from there! Without asking, the likelihood of bad things is much greater than that of good things!

“Can you identify them? Better figure out how strong they are!” Marie tucked into Grimm's ear and asked softly.

Grimm, unheard of, is still immersed in the perception: “The other side is coming towards us, but the direction deviates by 4 degrees... 3 tunnels and 2 caves are separated by a straight distance of 93 meters... they have arrived at the first cave, where there is a fierce collapse, there is no direct road to us... they seem to be carrying out some sort of witchcraft, strong elemental sensations... etc., they seem to have something in their hands that can search for us... that's...”

Grimm opened his eyes violently and his eyes shocked softly: “It's a contact crystal! They have the contact crystal we distributed before dispersion and are now positioning us with the breath above! ”

At the first berth in the dark, the team members left their personal marks on each other for ease of communication. Now that they have a contact crystal only team members can possess, it is also a sign that a teammate must have fallen into their hands.

Grimm pulled a fist-sized blue crystal out of his waistbag, which he intended to throw away far. But the next second his behavior was stopped by Mary.

“If they really rely on the personal atmosphere in the contact crystal, we might as well design a trap for them…” Mary's eyes were filled with thick killing machines when it came to killing.

Both of them were fierce belly masters. After a few brief discussions, Mary grabbed Grimm's contact crystal and plunged into the darkness of the distance. And Grimm laughed hey, stretching her legs gently and stomping the crocodile, slowly falling into the dirt beneath her feet.

…………

Anna led the way through that shattered, twisted tunnel.

She took a quick look around before entering the next cave.

Her gaze, passing in the silent darkness, fell far away. The twisted edges of the tunnels, the broken rock peaks and the bell milkstones are staggered there, and some blurred light sources of unclear origin emerge from their bizarre shadows, as if they were sharp teeth revealed when the devil laughed.

Listening to the side ears, a rumbling noise, is hidden from the underside of the ground. The subtle fog continued to erupt from the cracks in the rock wall, reflecting the magical spectacle of moss fungi and so on that pervaded the stone wall, forming a strange illusion of light leaving the land.

In an environment like this, the difficulty of pursuing an enemy is not ordinary.

Fighting in the distance has had a serious impact on this terrain, and many familiar roads have become completely invisible. This also diminishes their underground “indigenous” topographical advantage.

The enemies they are tracking are obviously also cunning and fraudulent and cannot leave too many traces in the air, so Anna needs to verify the position of the enemy every time she travels a distance.

Place the contact crystal with blood on the dirt, and Anna gently recites strange spells that are difficult for outsiders to recognize. When she was finished, a white woman with long hair appeared in front of her without five officials.

“Great ancient grudge spirit, please show me where the enemy is! ”

Hearing her request, the faceless grievance settled over the contact crystal, slowly turning her head and finally positioning her in a certain direction.

“Looks like they're moving towards Area 11!” Gary the Black Robe, who has been following Anna, couldn't bear the excitement.

As a result of Gary's intervention, this “spiritual” ritual rephasing was clearly triggered. That faceless grieving head turned back again, Mori Cold's eyes looked at the black robe quasi-witch Gary through his long hair, and opened his mouth to send out a pointy scream of soul absorption.

Anna, a senior apprentice, bites the tip of her tongue and sprays a bite of hot blood, beating in the face of a faceless grudge. With an incredible scream of soul, the grievance disappeared.

And Anna groaned, obviously also suffered a slight backlash.

Without any remorse for his wanton behavior, the black robe of Gary the Quasi-Wolf uniform, the whole person has been turned into a whistling wind, disappearing on the spot. And his quick words echoed in Anna's ear, slowly fading away for a long time.

“I'll go after the enemy first. Hurry up and keep up! ”

When only herself was left on the scene, Anna's cold eyes were filled with a glimmer of hatred and resentment. But she also knows that, in her capacity as a senior apprentice, these quasi-witches cannot be offended in any way. I'm afraid these quasi-watches would never have let themselves join their hunting squad if they hadn't wanted to borrow their ability to “summon”.

Target prey is a junior apprentice and an advanced apprentice. Such a weak combination also dared to travel underground, Anna sometimes had to wonder if the heads of the surface wizards were broken, and even sent such meat dishes underground, it was an initiative to die!

In a hurry to collect the items in the stadium, Anna wrapped herself in a black robe and quickly ran forward along a pitch-black passage. If she moves too slowly, the Gary Quasi-Witch won't leave her any loot. Now Anna only hopes that the senior apprentice in the target prey will be able to resist for a longer time, so that she will have the opportunity to capture a junior apprentice.

A junior apprentice on a surface in the meagre and corrupt Wizard City of Eternal Love has redeemed enough resources for Anna's leisure last year and a half.

The dark passage was constantly stretching in front of her, the rugged terrain of canine teeth made it extremely difficult for her to travel, and the strong wind elements left behind by the outdated passage of the sophisticated Gary Quasi-Warre had not dispersed in the passage, so Anna did not have to bother to analyze the road.

But just as she entered the last tunnel and was about to reach the huge melting hole in Area 11, Anna stopped in the middle of the tunnel.

For no reason, a terrible and dangerous intuition surfaced into her mind.

Boom, boom, boom...

Anna was shocked by the sudden earthquake, because it was clear to her that the source of the horror was beneath her feet.

Severe oscillations broke the passage section in front of her, the intense rock formation was misplaced, and tons of sandstone soil fell from the top of her head, quickly forcing her back into the cave she had just passed.

And there, in a dark, cold world, there was a strange human figure waiting for her in silence.

The darkness of the source of terror for outsiders is the best cover and protection for Anna, who has lived underground for years. At this moment, however, she still finds it difficult to conceal her shock, remotely measuring the apprentice who dared to challenge her positively.

It's the senior apprentice!

With the intensity of the spiritual fluctuations, Anna quickly identified the other person.

“Let your companion out!” Anna's intelligent brain quickly analyzed why: “I can't believe a junior apprentice has the ability to travel through the dirt! Looks like he's perfect here! ”

The micro earthquake just now took place in about a second, and the force was pinched just right, taking full advantage of the ground here to separate her from the Black Robe Quasi-Wolf Gary. It seems that the other party intends to be weak and ready to take advantage of his senior apprentice.

With a cruel smile, Anna lowered her voice and leaned down and struck out at the girl in red standing in the distance.
