Age of Adepts

While it is temporarily impossible to verify the true existence of the Wizard's treasure in Kabi's mouth, it is absolutely worth the risk.

After all, what a second-degree wizard cannot see may be a priceless treasure for Grimm, who is struggling to be promoted to a wizard. So after the initial location of the ruins of the city, Grimm began to figure out how to talk about the truth.

Judging from the location displayed on the map, that possible location is located at the deepest point of the shallow surface of the dark cave. Not more than 17 miles from the surface line, but deep into the bio-rich core of the earth. According to the map, there are several large underground communities in the vicinity of suspicious sites, many of them roaming robust underground organisms.

I really want to go out there, but I'm afraid I'm not prepared to send food to those wicked, cruel guys!

In recent days, Mary has also been busy strengthening herself, almost daily. When Grimm seized the opportunity to divulge her plan to Mary, she didn't have the impulse to immediately call for a team with him. Instead, Grimm was told steadily that she had recently found a way to increase her strength and was working on it, which was unlikely to go out in the near future.

Grimm then reasonably handed over control of Kabi to Mary, who was responsible for keeping an eye on the cunning boy every day, while preparing herself for the materials needed for the underground expedition.

After everything was ready, Grimm found Kevin and said hello to him, saying he was going to the underground world to find some dark grass, and then sneaked into a dark hole under the pretext of this.

…………

To be honest, dark caves are really not a place for sightseeing and tourism.

For the first time, any intelligent surface creature steps into a dark hole, the greatest manifestation of which is extreme emotional repression. With hundreds of tons of dirt and gravel buried on top of your head at any moment, no surface creature can ever be as calm as it used to be. And in a dark hole, any irrational behavior can leak its own trail and lead to a crowd of predators.

For this underground trip, Grimm was able to do his best. In addition to the crocodile hunter he rode, there were three quasi-wolf Python Demon Puppets in his lumbar. If he really wants to meet an enemy he can't beat, he just has to do his best to get all three pythons out, and he doesn't believe there are any other enemies that can stop him from escaping.

As for the other two crystal nuclei and two wind nuclei, Grimm's design of their witchcraft is still in the process of further refinement, and it is expected that by the end of this underground trip there will be results.

As soon as they enter the darkest cave, Grimm sinks into the dirt without saying anything to summon the crocodile hunter, continuing in the direction indicated by the map towards the depths of the ground. Every step forward, Grimm drives the crocodile into shape in a dark tunnel, further confirming its direction.

With this approach, in just over three hours, Grimm has dived into a depth of about 10 miles. But further down, the speed of passage becomes extremely slow.

Large chunks of metallic ore, even massive rock formations, have become insurmountable for Grimm as he travels through the earth. Grim's spiritual strength can only extend up to a distance of one to twenty metres in the dark dust, and how difficult it is to find a path straight to its destination in this situation.

So after several successive encounters with the wall, Grimm had to come out of a tunnel again. There is no way to travel in this completely unfamiliar area, using the off-the-shelf tunnels dug out by the underground creatures is much better than crashing into the dark underground.

In the dark, damp tunnel, Grimm took out the crystal ball and used the positioning technique to reconfirm his position, which slowly proceeded along the inclined downward channel.

Tall on a spacious, flat crocodile back, Grimm wears a thick, tough traveler's cape, a noble headband on his forehead, and his eyes hidden in quaint, ancient Dwarf goggles. Through a slightly dim microlight vision and an elemental vision of the origin of the Perspective Matter, the channel in front of Grimm is another strange world completely different from the rest.

The background color of the entire vision is luminous and the light is slightly dim, but anything can still be seen very clearly. All substances with an elemental aura emit elemental halos that are characteristic of the element in sight, even if hidden behind thick asparagus or in the cracks of rock walls, whose shapes may be concealed, but this colorful elemental halo cannot be concealed.

Grimm can tell how strong or weak they are, even from afar, based on the halos that appear in the vision of the elements.

Weak power allowed the Demon Alligator Hunter to strike, a few dirt spears threw over it, hidden figure was cut through a second, red tongue of blood flowed out of the broken body, soon the last breath of life disappeared. And when you encounter something stronger, Grimm summons a python and crushes it straight into meat sauce with its unmatched body diameter.

So along the way, the scattered underground predators met monster killers, one who died unexpectedly in a latent location before waiting for their prey to get close.

But scattered predators are good to deal with, but those formations can hardly compete in the narrow-minded underground. Guys like the Jackal Pit, the Lizard's Nest, Grimm doesn't dare to mess around easily. Otherwise, if they lean out, they will be able to defeat them, and I'm afraid all the monsters in the area will be shocked.

But Grimm didn't know that just as he snuck silently past the Jackal Pit, a slim figure stood up in the dark, damp shadow he had just passed.

This is an old jackal who has entered the final course of his life. Skinny bodies don't have much muscle, and an old, dark dagger hangs between their waists, making the old body even less upright. But when it slits its slightly cloudy Mori cold eyes in the direction of Grimm's disappearance, a fearful strong man dissipates, almost clogging the air around it.

“Chief, that man is heading towards the ruins!” A shadow bursts out of the darkness.

“Let him go! A small intermediate apprentice, unable to turn out the big wind.” The eyes of the old Jackal chief gorilla red lit two small flames in the dark: “And then the point inside is the lizard's land. These guys have been blocking us from approaching the ruins with quantitative advantages, putting a little bug in there and maybe adding a little mess to them! ”

“Yes! I will arrange for the brothers at the forward post to put him there.” Soon after the shadow bowed down to salute him, he disappeared again into the darkness.

Grimm is still walking slowly in the dark. Somehow, he always somehow felt a little chilly on the back of his spine, as if a shady wind was invading his body through a thick cloak, making him unable to help but tremble slightly.

Goddamn it, where did this ominous sign come from?

Never for a moment did Grimm hate himself so much for not learning some divination prophecy or other witchcraft knowledge. Even if he only learns a fur, he can simply divulge the direction of danger and thus make some precautionary preparations.

Grimm had sneaked out the screaming branches a few times and found nothing unusual. This suggests that the crisis is on the horizon, but not consciously directed against itself. Is the danger coming from inside the ruins?

Grimm thought slowly and looked more frequently at the endless darkness around him.

Theoretically, with the perspective of elemental vision, no user of an element can approach themselves silently. And in the underground world, what other creatures can threaten their lives without those terrible monsters?

Grimm's brain was thinking fast, and a powerful underground biomass stored in the chip was slowly flowing through his mind. Whispering, several creatures caught Grimm's eye.

Jackal hunter... lizard assassin...

This seems to be their territory, and neither of these bizarre underground creatures fall under the category of monsters, which means that there is no concentration of elemental energy in their bodies. But they are still among the highest on the list of dangerous organisms in the Dark Grotto. This suggests that even without the power of the elements, they still possess awe-inspiring combat capabilities.

Grim's heart is slightly heavy.

Elemental vision is harder to spot and microlight vision is harder to spot for this combat capability, which relies on robust physical abnormalities. I'm afraid it's Marie's infrared vision, and it doesn't do much good. So how do you find these weird, tough guys?

When Grimm was anxious, the chip finally gave him a useful message.

Full Visual Matching Capability!

This is a spiritual perception that only Grim can achieve.

Every step forward, Grimm stores a backup of the topography that feeds back microscopic and elemental vision in his mind. Then, with the chip's powerful visual matching capability, you can detect small local differences in the topography of the two front and rear terrains in the shortest possible time.

If Grimm really has a latent cold-blooded assassin on his side, as long as he moves with Grimm, the shadow space he's in is bound to be slightly different from what it was before. These differences cannot be discerned by the human eye, but it is difficult to escape the undifferentiated full visual match of the chip.

As long as they are discovered, their threat is reduced by more than eighty percent.

By then, they will not waver in the darkness, but Grimm will severely punish their arrogance and arrogance!
