Age of Adepts

Chapter 114: Great Progress

It's been a month since Mary woke up again.

This time the blood of the strong sucked, the energy hierarchy was much higher than her vampire rank, forcing her to digest such powerful blood energy only with a constant sleep. Of course, it's also a gift for their vampire clan!

If you switch to another organism, one breath swallows a lot of heterogeneous energy, which can easily pollute your vein direction. But the vampire clan is so different, no matter how much heterogeneous energy it consumes, after digestion, it becomes the nourishment of its own vampire blood, and there will never be a mix of blood.

However, this evolution is clearly different from the past. When she woke up from her deep sleep, Mary even felt like she was starving to death.

It had to surprise her.

The biggest feeling of waking up when you need to sleep when you've eaten blood energy in the past is the feeling of bloodstream fullness and satisfaction. But somehow today, after devouring the entire blood of a wizard monster leader, she woke up hungry again at this moment, and hungry.

And this feeling comes from the deepest source of the body's veins. As if… as if this evolution, her veins have evolved at a greater and more sudden pace than her physical fitness.

Is there a factor in the Spirit's blood that promotes blood vein evolution? Mary opened her eyes, licking her lips with deep doubts.

This is not your own room! There's someone in the room!

Mary sat silently from the bed, her red, bloody eyes falling straight on a huge shadow.

This is Grimm's room, but the person sitting in front of the desk reading the book in silence is obviously not him. That generous and robust body is strange, but that familiar soul fluctuates, that familiar body smell... eh, no! How did the familiar smell get mixed with a hint of sulfur?

Mary floated silently, just a flicker came behind that familiar stranger. Her fingernails grew rapidly and became unusually sharp and sharp as the blood flashed, while her scarlet blood eyes stared closely at each other's nearby neck, ready to bite.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Two items that had originally been placed on Mary fell on the floor as she moved, making a crisp noise.

When he heard the voice, the shadow turned back. The moment he saw Mary, he smiled joyfully in his face.

“Are you awake?! ”

Very sincere laughter and overflowing joy!

Mary stopped the pounding action, her blood eyes contracted into a seam, and she drank coldly and asked, "Who are you? Why do you smell like Grimm? ”

Looking at Mary's nervous appearance, Grim Joon-su's face revealed a slight cry. Seems that both sides have changed so dramatically that Marie has begun to doubt her eyes.

Grimm stood up from her chair, formerly in the same shape as Mary, and is now one head taller than Mary. And with his generous figure, when the two of them stood face to face, Grimm's oily sense of space oppression forced Mary to take an unconscious step back.

“The most real basis for judging a person is his spiritual fluctuation. Why, Mary, can't you feel my spiritual fluctuation?” Grimm asked calmly.

Nor does he want to overstimulate each other at this time, because Mary is like a full-blown female leopard at this moment, biting at the edge of a big inconsistency. Though the surge in strength gave Grimm a lot of confidence in himself, there were five in this tiny neighborhood where he was tied together, and I'm afraid he couldn't stand a vampire quasi-witch tearing them apart.

Yes, Grimm's perception is acute, and now Mary is a quasi-wolf vampire! If the book classifies the vampire hierarchy, I'm afraid now Mary already has the title.

This title does not refer to the hierarchy of the human kingdom of secular society vis-à-vis its nobles, but rather to the hierarchy of power of the vampire clan vis-à-vis its own people. Because the vampire clan is naturally inclined to lurk in human society and disguise itself as a human nobleman, it also basically follows the hierarchy of human nobility.

As Mary's current vampire class, I'm afraid she's already got the status of a baron!

Vampires, Jazz, Barons, Viscounts, Counts, Marquises, Dukes, Grand Dukes, Princes! This is the hierarchy of vampires. But blood and strength levels are sometimes difficult to proportionally match.

For example, Mary's vampire blood hierarchy is the Baron, but her strength is the Quasi-Wolf. If she encounters a lineage from an orthodox family of vampires, most likely with personal strength or intermediate grade, she already has a title like Viscount.

The title is of little significance to non-vampires, but it has unspeakable advantages within the vampire community. At least that intermediate Viscount Vampire, in the face of Mary, would most likely use blood pressure to enslave Mary as his servant. Whether or not it succeeds depends on the amount of will between the two and the degree of repression between the veins.

Mary looked doubtfully at Grimm again and couldn't help but sniff the smell on him. Grimm's soul fluctuates! After confirming this, the tension on Mary's face only slightly eased. But where did that stinging sulphur and the sweet and delicious taste come from?

Once again, Marie approached Grimm's body and opened her delicate red lips to bite a little taste. But her puppy tooth just approached Grimm's neck and was suddenly burst into flames by a small group.

Mary just swayed slightly in the air and came to Grimm's side again, blinking her eyes and staring at a small flame that suddenly appeared on Grimm's neck.

This is a golden flame, only the size of a belly, suspended quietly on the surface of Grimm's skin, burning silently, without the usual crackling noise of flame.5 After one finger, perhaps no outside hostility or attack was sensed, the flame went into Grimm's skin and disappeared.

Marie only realized that the flame was not summoned by Grimm's method, but was a warning mechanism for its own instinctive response.

Mary curiously stretched out a finger toward the area where the fire had just caught on, and this time it was strange that her smooth finger hadn't flamed over Grimm's skin for half a day. Marie was stunned and then seemed to understand something.

Mori Cold's killer appeared, Mary's extended fingernails made a slight snapping noise of rapid growth, and the front end of the nails became sharp under the perfusion of blood system forces. Almost at the same moment, Mary's fingers pressed the neck position, soaring a golden flame that lit her fingers directly.

Marie raised her hand and looked curiously, the flame actually disengaged Grimm, stubbornly and obsessively burning at her fingertips and causing her continued harm.

Marie threw up her fingertips, quickly neutralizing the flame with blood energy. That's when she turned to Grimm.

“What hall of fame is this? Looks pretty good! ”

“Combination of Body of Bathing Fire and Flame Shield. ”

“How did the sulfur smell come from your body? ”

“This is the after-effect of the last submerged lava, and a way to remove it is under way. ”

“Soaking underground lava? ”

“You know, you've been asleep for 32 days!” Grimm helplessly spread his hands: “But in the meantime, a lot has happened, and you need to understand it slowly! ”

“Then tell me from the beginning!” Mary's little face shrunk into clumps: “I'm going to eat and listen to you! ”

So for the next two hours, Mary swallowed five magic packages in a row to barely stop the deep hunger in her soul. Grimm sat beside her and watched as she swallowed her throat, telling the story of what had happened over time.

Grimm, of course, was just talking about everything that had happened, and as for his speculation and suspicion in the cave, he was speechless. After all, this is the Wizard Tower under the control of the other party, and the ghost knows if that second-degree wizard Andrei is still watching them. So for security reasons, he intends to keep this secret all by himself!

When Marie finally stopped eating, Grimm resubmitted those two gifts.

Mary caressed with confusion the exquisite flower armor and magic bow with some impressions and looked up to Grimm to explain.

“Both of these were Wizards of the Spirit, and now I've modified them, and using your lineage energy can drive them. You used to lack long-range attacks, and now you have both, you can make up for your flaws! ”

It has to be said that Mary has been ill with Grimm's crude means of using blood power. Such a good talent for vampires, it's still such an old-fashioned mad dog fight, fighting the enemy for blood for injury! In the unlikely event of encountering enemies capable of suppressing her blood-sucking regenerative gift, her method is pure death!

Now that she has the rose flower armor, her skinny flaws are remedied. With the Blood Bow, she lacks the flaws of a long-range attack to make up for it. Thereafter, she can use her high agility to slowly annihilate the enemy's attack defenses by means of long-range guerrillas. If she really needs a melee, she can also abandon the bow and wrap it around the enemy with brutal claws.

This way, Mary's ability to fight can only be fully unleashed if there are ranged melee battles and the necessary defenses!

Grim was not idle during this period of time.

Once the witchcraft was modified for Mary, Grimm invested the rest of his time in mastering fire witchcraft and restoring the puppet.

The Body of Bathing Fire is just one of his primary thresholds on the fire department's specialty roads, and while it does not bring direct combat capability to Grimm, it is the biggest auxiliary support for all fire department witchcraft. A combination of a body of bath fire and a flame shield gives Grimm this passively triggered flame protection. Any action that injures his body at close range is countered by spontaneous flame, with the damage level at 3—5.

Flame backlash, though not high, does not require him to carry out spells, nor does it require spiritual manipulation. Kind of a good personal defense!
