Age of Adepts

Chapter 211: Gatherings

Though the phantom appearance appears to be a demonic, sexy and hot beauty, given her skill in illusion, Grimm automatically ignored her beauty when looking at the female wizard.

The ghost knows if she's hiding a bloated, fat body beneath her hot, sexy shell!

Of course, Grimm can also take advantage of the perspective that is characteristic of his element's vision to see who he really is. But in the face of an opponent of your own rank, aggressive probing is undoubtedly an offense and is likely to provoke counter-insurgency.

So when there are other wizards around, Grimm deliberately turns off those active probes and only allows the chip to do some passive secondary information-gathering.

Also, one of the main reasons Grimm defines her as a female wizard, not a witch, is that in the world of wizards, witches are a unique term used to refer specifically to women wizards who have ancient heritage. So a witch must be a female witch, but a female witch is not necessarily a witch.

The Phantom Wizard in front of him is on the path of the Orthodox Elements Wizard, which has nothing to do with that group of witches on the north side of the Wizard Continent.

There are also a number of illusion-affiliated wizards, although most of them belong to auxiliary types, and not many can be suitable for bloody battlefields. After all, there is no illusion on the wizard now to break the wand, and the Necklace of the Condensed God is embarrassed to go out. Therefore, with the widespread spread of these auxiliary props, the witch's ability to specialize in illusion is inevitably greatly discounted!

But today we can invite this Phantom Wizard to fully demonstrate that she has unique abilities in the illusion field, otherwise it will be absolutely difficult to enter this team of combat wizards.

After a brief look at the phantom, Grimm shifted most of his attention to that big Hyde.

Hyde obviously took the Ao Yi Wizard route, more than 2 meters tall and tall, but with extremely obvious signs of mechanical transformation on his body. The small left arm has been truncated with an elbow and replaced with a bronze-coloured robotic arm, without any skin treatment on the surface, and outsiders can even see the inner metal chain, gears, spindles and many unspeakable mechanical parts directly.

At first glance, there are countless parts of this Hyde wizard that have been modified. Robotic arms, mechanical lower limbs, metal eyes, many strange mechanical equipment attached to the body surface...

If Grimm were to define it, the Hyde Wizard was a precision mechanic, just some human flesh attached to the surface of the robot's body… the robot.

Grimm is curious, if you take the sea wizard's chest off, do you see hot flesh, or countless crazy spinning gears and connecting rods?

For those who have undergone brutal physical transformation, what makes them powerful is that they are far beyond the energy output of ordinary wizards and their dazzling peculiar abilities.

You know, most wizards are still fragile. When there was no witchcraft, they were just a bunch of weak people who needed to hold their breath for a few floors. But once the witchcraft was completed, they immediately became omnipotent gods of the heavens and the earth.

Mechanical wizards, on the other hand, can replace fragile body organs with magical and powerful magical machines through deep mechanical transformation. Thus, even without witchcraft, their bodies can naturally have certain witchcraft effects and remain eternal.

So what mechanical wizards pay for is the appearance and enjoyment of humans, but in exchange, it is extraordinarily powerful and weird!

Legend has it that the Sky City on the western coast of the Wizard continent brings together a large number of Oracle wizards, most notably mechanical wizards. And Sky City, a city of wizards floating at 10,000 meters, represents the supreme achievement of magical machinery.

Although Grimm had a heart to learn more about the Hyde Wizard, with a slight mechanical buzz, there were some strange fluctuations around the other party's body, isolating him from further snooping.

Grimm smiled embarrassingly and nodded slightly with Hyde and the puppet, then walked up to the side and waited.

Didn't keep them waiting.

A moment later, the thunderbolt sounded in the sky and the light flashed, and the Thunderbird Wizard rushed back. Behind him follows Bloody Mary and another weird sorcerer hidden in a black robe.

Everyone who saw his invitation had arrived, and the Hyde wizard cleared his voice and began with a strange metallic voice: "Gentlemen, I have gathered you all here today for that abominable knight of shine. If we leave them safely out of the encirclement, the many costs we have paid before will be in vain! ”

For this old-fashioned opening statement, the wizards chose silence.

While adverse fighting can most likely lead to a failure of family traction, the resources and rewards promised by families will be lost once everyone has been evicted from their native lands. But if the wizards present are pushed to the battlefield as cannon ash, people will only be unable to help, save their lives first.

So Hyde wizards who are familiar with wizards' integrity are quick to turn.

“I intend to launch a sneak attack against that shiny knight. If all present are willing to participate, stay and continue the discussion. If anyone doesn't want to get involved, you can leave now! The only guarantee I can make is that once the plan succeeds, everyone will get what they want most! ”

The look on the faces of the wizards has finally changed a little!

As wizards, they adhere to the principle of a fair exchange of interests, and are instinctively circumvented in matters that have no merit or are too dangerous. Running off to sneak up on a second-degree knight is definitely a dangerous task beyond their capabilities!

However… it seems acceptable to take some risks if the resources and knowledge that you want most for this purpose are made available.

Everyone's eyes flashed slightly, seemingly silently about what to calculate.

The Hyde Wizard's mechanical eye circled and waited for a moment to see that no one had left before relaxing a little. The people present were powerful wizards he had carefully selected, and everyone had strange witchcraft skills that were difficult for outsiders to reach.

So anyone who leaves will have a big or small impact on his plan. If necessary, he may have to lower the selection threshold to find alternative candidates from among the remaining wizards.

“Since no one left voluntarily, everyone was willing to participate in the plan. All right, then let's talk about each other's demands! ”

This kind of intimacy, no wizard is willing to go public, so Hyde Wizards then consult one-on-one with every participant. Hyde's lips moved slightly, but he couldn't hear anything at all, apparently talking to a witch in secret.

In about half an hour, Grimm finally heard the hint of the chip in his mind.

“SPECIAL Psychiatric Channel Detected, Sponsor: Hyde Wizard, please ask subject to indicate whether to access? ”

“Access! ”

The next second, Hyde Wizard Nazi's metallic voice sounded in Grimm's mind.

“Hello, Grim. Time is running out. Let's get this straight. What do you want if you're invited to this dangerous hunt? ”

“…” Grimm hesitated for a moment and slowly began: “I want to get that part of knowledge of the fusion of Symbol Energy and Life Energy! ”

“Uh… this requirement is a bit difficult! After all, the full knowledge of energy convergence may only be mastered by the vast forces behind them. Even if we kill to capture some residual knowledge of the script, it is still extremely difficult to derive a subsequent fusion of energy from it..."

“If I'm not mistaken, the last time Lord Fergan captured a shining knight alive, I'm sure he can get a lot of secrets from their insides...”

The distant Hyde wizard crept his body in surprise, and the mechanical eye of the Scarlet Starlight carefully weighed Grimm again.

“I have no authority to divulge information inside the camp...”

“If knowledge of energy convergence is not directly available, I would also like to know how they can be obtained. In other words, I'd like to know who else in the Knight's Lands has complete knowledge of energy fusion, and of course, it's best I can handle it! ”

“You really are a visionary wizard! If my understanding is correct, in addition to those rare resources, the most valuable aspect is the knowledge of these symbols. The energy convergence knowledge that you have requested, which Lord Salupo has defined as a three-tier strategic resource, is unlikely to appear in your hands. As for the mortals who possess this knowledge internally, although they are not included in the control, they also need you to hunt for them yourself. I can only provide some corresponding membership lists! ”

“That's enough! I accept that condition. ”

The next second, a psychic witchcraft contract emerged in Grimm's mind.

The chip dutifully scanned the contract in detail, eliminating traps such as language logic, magic patterns, and contract vulnerabilities before passing on the detailed contract provisions to Grimm. Grimm took a brief glance and was generally the same as what he had just negotiated, which carefully left his witchcraft mark on the contract.

It took another half an hour for Hyde Wizards to sign a contract with the rest of the wizards. With the constraints of the contract, everyone's attitude became friendly.

To facilitate the collaborative battle that follows, Hyde Wizards have asked you to briefly describe your witchcraft abilities. Hyde Wizards are of course the first to encourage people to talk.

“Hyde, a mechanical wizard, specializes in small-scale close combat, witchcraft ability probably has the power to kill lightsabers and sharp cones...”

The second one is Thundersnake.

“Thunderbirds, elemental wizards, specialize in lightning system witchcraft, currently mastered by thunderstorms, lightning bombardment and lightning delivery...”

“Puppets, bloodline wizards, specializing in botanical modification, witchcraft mastered by puppet silk threads and wood substitutes...”

“Wicked worms, blood wizards, specialize in worm body modification, witchcraft mastered by insect repellency, split attack and injury sharing...”

“Phantom, elemental wizard, good at illusion, mastery of witchcraft has the environment of dreams and dreams away...”

“Fire Demons, Elemental Wizards, Specialize in Fire Witchcraft, Mastering Witchcraft with Flame Demon Transformations and Flame Boundaries...”

“Blood girl, blood sorcerer, good at blood sorcery, witchcraft mastered by Manta Demon Transformation and Blood Sucking Attack...”

“Evil Shadow, Elemental Wizard, Good at Cursing...”

On such occasions, of course, it is impossible for everyone to light up their cards, so the presentation is vague. But since the Hyde Wizard brings us all together, there must be more or less understanding of everyone's situation.

So the rest of us started listening to Hyde's detailed description of his hunting plan!
