Age of Adepts

“Your name is Grimm, from the Sarubo clan in Sandtalin? ”

A rat-headed Alliance MP lifted his head from a tall bench, held up gold-wired glasses on the nose beam, and glanced at Grimm in confusion.

“Yes, my lord!” Grimm tried to calm down his answer.

Otherwise, whoever sees a rat-like guy in a silver robe, with a flat-top hat on his head, and a pair of gold-wired glasses on his nose, Slow Strip Sly is there to read the paperwork, I'm afraid the first reaction is to laugh up in the air.

But Grim wouldn't dare! He doesn't dare!

Because the other side looks ridiculous, but after all, the identity of the 3rd level wizard is there!

Grimm, after all, is now awaiting the verdict of the other party in the name of the offender, and any disrespect for him will result in unpredictable punishment for himself.

“During your stay with Sky City, you violated the space regulations here, connected the ectopic surface without prior application, and opened a small space wormhole. Such an act would pose a degree of threat to the security of the City of Sky. Do you admit to that?” Congressman Rat sent Roppeiro Slow Slow to examine the paper presented by Rondorff, the law-enforcer of the silver robe, repeating Grimm's charges word for word.

“My lord, I will never deny my illegal conduct of space experiments. But I don't approve of the accusation that space experiments have an impact on the safety of Sky City!” Faced with this otherworldly trial court, Grimm has always had the urge to laugh. But it was in his personal interest, so he had to endure it, and then he had to go around the other side with good reason.

“Do you have anything to add to His Excellency Grimm's answer?” Congressman Rat Pairo asked about Randolph, the silver robe enforcer.

“My lord, our Space Committee acts in full accordance with the rules of the City of Sky. Sky City's defense mechanism detected this space wormhole, estimated the fluctuation intensity of the wormhole space to be XXX Dah, the wormhole radius 1 m, the connecting area is the secondary material level of hypocrite space, the connecting area is approximately between the 0713 and 0941 star domains… Since it is an unknown distant star domain, connecting to it would expose Sky City to possible contamination. That is why the three of us unanimously agreed on the need to severely punish His Excellency Grimm for this misdemeanour! ”

Randolph, the law-enforcer of the silver robe, replied forcefully, but Grimm overheard.

You can already detect that opposite the wormhole is a hypocrite secondary, and you're worried about the other side invading the Wizard World? That's a strong word for reason!

But in order not to leak into the hands of Jinxi Kabi and connect with the transmitter of Jinxi Empire, Grimm could only shake his head and sigh to accompany Randolph in the performance.

“My lord, I find the arguments put forward by His Excellency Randolph too arbitrary and the other party does not have any direct evidence to support his assertions…" Grimm tried to defend himself again, but the rat congressman Pairo tapped the hammer gently and interrupted his speech.

“Sir Nanali, we are considering today the mistake of Grimm opening the space wormhole without authorization. Why are you in the room?” Congressman Paro twisted his head to Nanali again.

“My lord, this Honourable Grimm is a guest of our Byron family and has just won an Olympic competition for us. Because of his haste, we did not have time to tell him about the laws and regulations here, which is why we made this mistake today. I therefore hope that the Coalition Review Tribunal will take this into account and take it lightly. The Byrons are willing to pay this fine for him!” Natalie obviously doesn't want to give up that empty stone easily.

“But it's an empty stone!” Congressman Pairo, though an old-fashioned figure, is obviously not a stubborn old man. At this moment, the grin directly identifies the problem.

“Now that His Excellency Grimm has made a mistake, the only way to get our silver alliance off the hook is to hand over that void stone. Of course, we will not swallow it for nothing and will buy it at a price that is acceptable to both parties. As for you, Natalie, don't get paranoid anymore. I can use my privileges to give you 2% of the Byron family's share of resources from my private share as a reward for stopping. What do you think?" Congressman Mouse Peiro smiled and blocked Natalie's impractical delusions.

Nanali hesitated for a moment and was helplessly accepted in the face of a powerful 3rd tier Alliance MP.

As for Grimm's opinion, to be honest, it doesn't matter at this time!

And the only thing he can do is make his own request and try not to lose too much.

“Go ahead, boy!” Congressman Paro is obviously quite satisfied with his unexpected gain, even his mood is much better: “What kind of reward would you like? ”

The loss of the Vacant Stone was actually already anticipated by Grimm, so at this moment he appeared to be dying of meat, but his heart flew fast.

“My lord, I am also very interested in witchcraft puppets. This time in Sky City, we want to gather some knowledge about witchcraft puppets and, by the way, some resources to make puppets. In addition, I have always been very interested in the puppet amulet…” Grimm spoke softly about his terms of trade, staring closely at the face of Congressman Paro, the rat.

Bargaining for this kind of thing depends entirely on the bottom line of the deal between the parties. Less, that's sorry for your empty stone, more, most likely to cause discontent with Congressman Paro the Mouse. So when Grimm talked about the puppet talisman, and saw Congressman Piro's skinny furry face trembling with a mustache, the machine shut up and stopped weighing.

“The knowledge, resources and puppet talisman of a witchcraft puppet…” Congressman Mouse frowned for a moment and barely nodded and agreed: “Advanced knowledge within the alliance is unlikely to be traded to you, but the universal witchcraft puppet has no problems.

As for resources!

I can allocate a lot of resources from the warehouse, enough for you to build a standard amount of twenty witchcraft puppets, types you can choose from.

Puppet talisman... this thing is the hardest thing to do.

The rule of the Alliance is never to sell such strategic treasures to non-members of the Alliance. However, I do have an early improvised work that is not within the limits of the rules of the Alliance and can be transferred to you...

Now let's see if the void stone in your hand is worth anything! ”

The rat congressman sent his hand twisting his beard slowly to report the price he could afford, but then he stared at the grey void stone that Grimm had taken out.

The size, the texture...

Congressman Pairo's skinny face shrugged slightly, quickly grabbed the empty stone, and punched into several black smokes, silently searching for detailed data inside. After a moment, the face finally revealed a surprise.

Looks like the quality of this empty stone is still far above his estimation!

“Randolph, take him to my Wizard Tower, give him all the knowledge and resources, and allow him to pick whatever he wants, according to what I just said. Besides, boy, this is for you! ”

A pin-shaped crystal amulet was thrown into Grimm's arms as Congressman Paro spoke.

Puppet talisman!

This is the Puppet Talisman!

Grimstrong pressed the excitement in his heart, put away the puppet amulet, and sent a royal salute to the rat congressman before leaving this small courtroom with Randolph. It can be seen that there must be a special relationship between this Randolph and that rat congressman, Paro, who would not have taken Grimm to it.

You know, there are no fewer than twelve smaller chambers, surrounded by a circular Federal Parliament Hall, staffed by five third-class deputies. Instead, Randolph took Grimm to Congressman Pilar, where he wouldn't believe in killing Grimm if he didn't mean anything to benefit him.

…………

Congressman Paro's Wizard Tower is still located in the Central Ring.

When Grim and Nanali were brought down to the Wizard Tower by Randolph, a puppet butler was already waiting here.

Natalie didn't follow up, she waited outside with Randolph. Only Grimm followed the Puppet Butler into the Wizard Tower.

Perhaps you don't like Grimm spying on the secrets inside your Wizard Tower. Grimm hasn't stepped into the Wizard Tower yet, and a bright lightning fence appears in front of him. The space in the tower is separated by a stationary lightning fence into a road leading in different directions, and at the end of each road is a small short-range transmission witch array.

And the Puppet Butler turned to himself and took a path, and Grimm could only help to keep up.

When the light of the transmission array turned from strong to weak, Grimm found himself in a private library of magnificent magnitude. The huge circular room is lined up along the walls on a stacked shelf full of myriad sorcery books, scrolls and scrolls.

Most of these books are lit with the glow of witchcraft protection, which echoes the defense system in this library hall. And a lot of weird little elves travel between bookshelves, and they seem to be doing some maintenance work.

Of course, these Pokémon are not real creatures, but activation puppets made of special materials that do not recognize the material.

“The master asks for a generic knowledge of Level 2 and below witchcraft puppets!” The Puppet Butler's voice is metallic but clear.

Ordered, the Pokemon in the house immediately got busy, quickly traveling between bookshelves, carrying books with their thin, toothpick-like, soft arms.

Soon, Grim stacked a huge stack of books two meters tall and three meters wide.
