Age of Adepts

No one knows exactly what happened deep inside the volcano.

But the volcanic world of total outbursts is no longer suitable for treasure hunting, but is what people see. Grimm then secretly left the town of Pamira after completing his assignment amidst resentful foreign apprentices.

When Grim returned smoothly to the Magic Swamp as a quasi-witch, the entire tower shook.

Once upon a time, the name Grimm was so unknown among the high tower apprentices that many were unaware of his existence. But now that his strength has risen, some of the strong people he could only look up to are now behind him, becoming the most darkly wounded group.

While some were still questioning the veracity of the news, the Kogan wizard, who represented the Sarubo family, again came to the Swamp Tower and summoned Grimm on the fifth floor. Not surprisingly, Grimm's choice, like Mary's, was to redeem the necessary promotion resources for 10 years of service to the Sarubo family.

Of course, Grimm would have left the Sarubo family now and chosen to become a vagrant if he had the confidence to get all the resources he needed for the official witch ritual of promotion. However, with the current development of scattering Tallinn, a policy of relatively hostile repression is generally adopted against stray wizards and apprentices who do not belong to the family, so Grimm wants to pass the apprenticeship period smoothly and still inevitably join a certain family of wizards.

As for Grimm's Byron family badge in the dark, it also represents the Byron family's willingness to take refuge in him in the Dagon area and does not sign a revised deed of witchcraft to join the Byron family.

After meeting the Kogan Wizard, Grimm was arrested by Mary, who had been interrogated as soon as she returned.

“Tell me, what did you do during this mission? How is it possible to suddenly advance a quasi-woman?” With Marie's knowledge of Grimm, this guy has never been able to successfully accomplish his mission, every time halfway through the road, making a huge moth.

Grimm just laughed and didn't say a word, but when he reached over the table, he left behind 1 large 4 small 5 dark red mysterious crystals.

“What is this?” Marie curiously reached for the biggest one, but the moment her little hand touched the mysterious crystal stone, she retracted.

The sound rang slightly, and a cluster of flames lit on the mysterious crystal stone, burning her fingers hard.

Even in the shape of a Mary vampire, several fingers that come into contact with the crystal become coke black. She was not concerned, however, and her fingers grew again glossy and tender as the focal marks faded away.

Mary did not suddenly build a second time, but thought back.

That was not driven by outsiders or some sort of witchcraft effect, but the spontaneous protective instinct of this crystal stone. As if... as if it had consciousness too!

“What is this?” Mary asked again and looked at Grimm with a bad complexion, revealing a pair of sharp canine teeth and a big inconsistent bite.

“2nd order nucleus!” Grimm's face showed a strange smile, one word at a time.

Mary's delicate red lips mumbled several times before suddenly realizing: “The second order nucleus? Did you kill the second-degree monster? Where's the body? Has the blood been extracted? Come on... tell me! ”

“Uh...” Grim star said silently: “Do you think I'll ever come back alive if I do meet a second-degree monster? ”

“That's true!” Mary chuckled and smiled. She was a little confused about her own demeanor.

Whoever calls her the most important transition of a vampire's life, the fastest way to improve her strength is to take the blood of the strong. Together, these two things are enough to make Mary nervous, and as soon as she hears the message of a powerful creature, she can't help but manipulate and fanaticize!

Now, of course, Grimm, in Marie's eyes, can barely be among the powerful. But that's what Mary said about smallpox, and Grimm wouldn't let her suck her own blood. Because, according to the chip summary analysis, any individual who has been sucked by vampires will lose strength to varying degrees.

And these damages are most likely the key to vampires' ability to absorb blood evolution!

The common denominator is that Grimm, if left to Mary to suck on her own blood, is most likely to lose his attributes, both physical and mental, which he values most. This is the most typical example of that dark cave Torrell blood apprentice.

Originally, that guy had reached the top of his apprenticeship, and was about to hold an upgrading witch ceremony, but he was defeated by Grimm's magic puppet combination. And that wound would heal him for at most a week or two. But the feedback from the other family suggests that the Torrell Quasi-Witch's spiritual power has receded, and although it has not fallen below 20 points, it has been enough to affect his normal promotion.

Thus, combining numerous blood cases, Grimm has reason to suspect that the vampire clan is able to fortify itself and weaken its enemies by sucking blood and leaching the blood factor into the body of the blood. Imagine how Grimm would dare Mary to suck her own blood in this situation!

After exchanging messages with each other, Mary rushed into the Mission Hall to find her own apprenticeship assignment. Grimm, on the other hand, returned to his residence and began to hear about the work of the goblin merchant Kabi.

In the last three months since Grimm's departure, the marsh tower has begun to become more active and less deadly than it used to be with the infusion of external information and resources. Kabi also opened his first goblin shop in the high tower with Marie at the back.

Small shops do not have many products to choose from, but each is a rare resource that is easily and difficult to find outside. In addition, Kabi recently launched the idea of low- and middle-class apprenticeships to acquire witchcraft materials and common resources that are temporarily out of their hands.

However, for such a small shop to be fully operational, it will require a constant array of high-end colours, otherwise it will be difficult to attract apprentices.

After listening to Kabby's debriefing, Grimm nodded satisfactorily, releasing a pile of magic gems and materials from the storage belt, mainly underground fire diamonds. After all, Grimm is more likely than any apprentice who wanders the periphery of the volcanic world day after day to crash into the interior of the lava ocean and encounter high-end magic gems.

Most of the peripheral diamonds and magic gems were also sprayed out of the lava ocean during the active phase of the volcano. Once again, the flame biolayer has been captured and screened, of course, the quality cannot be too good. And the diamond that Grimm brings back from the lava sea is a fist-sized superb diamond. There was even a giant diamond under the human skull that Grimm threw at Kabi, allowing him to find a way to carve into the shape of a jade pillow.

This way Grim will meditate on it in the future and it will definitely work better!

When Kabi left with his cheerful lumbar bag, Grimm's smile gradually retreated and began to think seriously about an extremely important piece of information.

Within the last three months of Grimm's departure, the Anderson wizard publicly announced the harvesting of the evil bug Ntik as his disciple. And according to Kabi's leak, the evil worm Ntik has been soaking on the 5th floor of the Wizard Tower for almost every day for some time now, and I don't know what he's doing there with the Anderson Wizard!

Faced with two possible enemies, Grimm's joy of the advanced quasi-wolf just dissipated, again feeling the urgency of not staying. After advanced witchcraft, with the guarantees of a family contract, Anderson wizards may not know how to be themselves, but it is possible to do something in the dark.

Is he so close to the evil worm Ntik that he wants to use his hand against himself?

Grim grinned bitterly.

From a thorough understanding of the interplay between Anderson's wizard and Mary's interests, he knew that he would sooner or later cause Anderson's wizard disgust. I just didn't expect the enemy to move so fast, so urgently!

In the eyes of these insidious wizards, all apprentices are merely material for walking. I'm afraid these selfish guys wouldn't have been able to stand up to the scarce resources of new wizards if they hadn't been restrained by their behavior by the top wizards.

However, no matter how the enemy plans to reckon, any danger or trap will dissipate and make it difficult to shake their way forward as long as they progress faster than expected.

Immediately after Grimm had dialyzed all of this, he developed a long work plan for the period following him. Under his arrangement, I'm afraid he's had plenty of time each day for the past six months, making it difficult to find any spare time.

In this mysterious alien world, in order to save his own life, Grimm also devoted all his energy and time to learning and studying witchcraft.

…………

Goblin Kabi's room.

Upon returning from the master's residence, Kabi fell into infinite fanaticism!

Every time a magic gem is removed from the lumbar sac of the bladder, it will thrill to dance by hand. After repeatedly kissing each other, it will be taken out to detect the properties and quality of the gem.

Don't mention the beauty of watching the pile of increasingly tall gems in front of you. At this moment, it was eager to run to the master again and kiss the master's toes with enthusiasm. Perhaps this is the only way for the master to truly experience Cabbie's passion and loyalty!

But just in the middle of this joy, there was also a small ripple.

Cabbie found a fist-sized mysterious white stone in a pile of gems thrown by the master. Whatever method it uses to detect, it cannot detect its properties, nor can it confirm which magic gem or material it is or the warcraft egg!

Even after detecting the magic wand, the feedback in my mind is just simple information like "unknown things of different worlds”. Since the probe stick says it's an object, not a creature, it means it's not a warcraft egg. And since the owner put it in the gemstone pile, it certainly means it's worth a fortune.

Goblin Kabi focuses most on the "different realms” suggested in the information.

Is this a mysterious gem from an ectopic side?

Cabbie scratched her head and could only throw the mysterious white stone onto the table, turning her head to handle the other stones.
