Age of Adepts

Chapter 316: Power Backlash

Out of expectation, in reason!

Grimm almost mistakenly identified her as the Leanna witch in Sky City when she saw the old witch with the old face and cloudy eyes.

After all, almost all old witches of age look the same!

Ugly invisible.

Looks like the old witch disguised herself as a beautiful illusionist.

Grimm couldn't help but feel disgusted when he thought of the ugly, evil old witch hidden beneath each other's beautiful appearance.

I caught the culprit, and now I have to deal with Alice.

As you can see, the strong and dangerous stimulus just now made her a little violent.

Seeing her eyes turned white and the whole person roared, it seemed that the spirit was in a state of extreme chaos.

The power of space in the Vacant Stone is constantly spreading in her medium, and if forcibly interrupted, I'm afraid Alice will endure the powerful backphage of the Vacant Stone. With her strength, it is impossible to survive such a degree of repetition.

Grimm also has a headache because of the strong spatial ripples in the other party's body, so he can't even get close!

So the only thing Grimm can do is close his eyes and try to call Alice through a soul contract. As if the other party had been out of line for a long time, the response appeared to be unusually slow and intermittent, and it seemed that the spatial ripples were also a huge interference with the spiritual communication between them.

“...... Lord...... man...... I am so...... distressed......”

“Alice, you're safe now. Stop calling the power inside the Vacant Stone! ”

“… master… I wish… could… possess… this… power…"

“Strength has to be gradual. The power you can control is the real power! If you fantasize about climbing one step at a time, you will only end up being overwhelmed by power! ”

“I... understand..."

Silent, spatial ripples in the void begin to diminish noticeably and gradually become invisible.

At the moment when the space ripples completely disappeared, Alice floating in the sky suddenly shook herself and her thin figure drifted down like a yellow leaf.

Until caught by a warm big hand.

“Let's go, let's go back! ”

As a raging array of witches emerged in the void, the halo of myriad brilliant symbols haunted several people. The white light grew brighter and harder to see, and after a sharp burst of noise, several figures disappeared into the ruins of the castle.

…………

Fei Denan City, Mage Tower.

In a secret room on the tenth floor.

Sanazza, Grimm, and Alice appeared in the center of the Chamber as the whites flashed.

The brilliant fluorescence slowly faded from the witch array beneath his feet, and the fugitive space energy impacted on the stone wall around the chamber, absorbing it by the sudden emergence of the defensive witch array.

With the sophisticated and powerful character system of the wizard world's symbolic knowledge, the transmission of the Wizard Array is an essential facility for almost every Wizard Tower. But every time you use it, the most basic crystal consumption is over 1000. And with the increase in transmission distance, the consumption of the magic crystal increases in a straight line, so very few wizards usually prefer to use it as a substitute.

And in a wizard's tower, the power to convey the Wizard Front is even more important, and first-level wizards like Grimm are simply out of reach. If Alice wasn't in a special situation, she could have had another powerful wizard from the Sarubo clan at any moment, and Sanaza wouldn't be in a hurry to rush back directly through the Witch Formation.

“Take her downstairs and cook well. I'll arrange the sorcerer's promotion ceremony as soon as possible.” Yan Zhao Xanaza mentioned a golden birdcage in front of him and smiled: “Leave these two little guys to me first! They always get something out of their minds...”

In a golden birdcage, the dragon and the old witch, dozens of times smaller, lay carelessly inside, haunted by strange mysterious symbols.

Grim's flame projected a bow of salute towards Sana 'a before turning away with Alice.

Seventh floor residences.

The flame projection carefully placed Alice on the bed and handed back the rotter puppet nucleus to Grimm, which reintegrated him.

This flame projection is a method of fire witchcraft that Grimm has been working out for some time now by absorbing knowledge of silver alliance puppet manufacturing through a lot of digestion.

Unfortunately, this flame projection can only accommodate a limited amount of power. At present, it does not possess the fighting capability of a magic puppet. It can only be used as a flame in Grimm. Even so, however, it exhibits some qualities that are superior to the puppet in some respects.

The magic puppet is seriously a number of elemental creatures that combine puppet properties, and although it has a certain instinct, it does not possess complete wisdom. It is therefore only at the behest of the summoner that it cannot * act independently.

And this flame projection is more like Grimm summoning up a fire element and projecting part of his soul consciousness into it, allowing him to move freely according to his own mind in a way that dominates the puppet.

Unfortunately, however, once the initial flame projection has been successfully shaped to form a complete and harmonious circulatory system, it will not be possible to continue to draw energy from the outside world. So the first summons of the flame energy that the flame projection consumes determines how long it can last.

According to the chip statistics, a little mental loss during summoning can sustain the normal activity of the flame projection for 10 hours, except for battle energy loss. Grimm's current mental strength is less than 7 o'clock, and if he does everything in his power, he can get a split that can replace his free movement for three days.

Grimm believes that as flame projection witchcraft continues to improve, he will surely be able to create a flame body that is no different from his own strength. At that time, with two to one, the advantage of fighting yourself will be even more obvious!

Immediately after retracting the flame projection, Grimm began a full physical examination of Alice, and he was greatly surprised at the conclusion reached.

Alice is in a very strange state and seems to be merging with the void stones sealed in her body.

However, given the power gap between the two, it does not appear that Alice is actively fusing the Vacant Stone, but rather… the Vacant Stone is actively fusing Alice.

This is not a good thing!

If Alice is strong enough to manage the Vacant Stone, she naturally can easily lead the fusion process and take the strange spatial forces inside the Vacant Stone as being used. But now Alice is clearly downwind in fusion and belongs to the object of fusion by a void stone.

If this continues, the merged Alice may lose her sense of independence * and become a strange void organism.

“Chip, present Alice's test results!” Grimm frowned firmly at the command.

“Dip, take orders. ”

With a slight sound, Grimm projected a three-dimensional 3D scan image of Alice in his mind. And where her belly is, the void stone seal, the silver Fae energy of the filaments spills out and slowly blends into her body veins.

“Chip, can you analyze the components and effects of these heterogeneous energies? ”

“Droplets, heterogeneous energy composition: space-active substances…

Energy Effect Analysis:

Solidity 217 (analog: Underground Essence Metal 163)

Extensibility 98 (analogy: magic silver 139)

Magic Ratio 82% (Analogy: Magic Silver 91%)

Exotic Attribute Space (Unanalogous Matter) ”

Grimm tasted the conclusions of the chip analysis and could not help but be appalled by the power of the dark stone as a void. No wonder it's hard to find a special object like the Vacant Stone in the interior of the position, and only a little bit can be found in the infinite depths of the star sea.

Nothing else, just because it absorbs and manages the power of space, it's just so different, it's even kind of frightening.

What kind of power is space power?

Most wizards understand this and know only how to apply it, but it is always difficult to summarize the knowledge system inside. Otherwise, the space in the world of wizards would not be so scarce today and would have to rely passively on the power of talent to use them.

Such a void stone, if handed over to Grimm, is simply hard to figure out, apart from being able to record a bunch of boring data that doesn't know what it means. Only people like Alice, who are naturally gifted with space, have the potential to induce this magical change in the Vacant Stone.

However, it is difficult to judge whether this variation is good or bad, given Grimm's current knowledge. So Grimm thought again and again, but decided to wake Alice first.

With a dashed hand, a bright red and fluorescent symbol soon appeared in the void and slowly fell into Alice's head.

A moment later, Alice's body crept and she finally opened her eyes slowly.

“What's wrong with me?” Alice climbed out of bed with a skeptical look to the left and right.

“You accidentally absorbed the power inside the Vacant Stone at Castle Willick, and now...” Grimm wrapped his hand around his chin, some not knowing how to describe it.

“What's the matter now? Problem?” Alice sensed it with her eyes closed and just felt that her body was filled with a powerful force that was unspeakable, and she was expanding rapidly with her strength: “But I feel in good shape now! ”

Grimm shook his head and said helplessly: "Don't be happy too soon, you should check your stomach first! ”

Alice looked up suspiciously, looking at Grimm's expression, seeing that he did not look fake, and her heart suddenly raised an ominous premonition.

Spike...

As the robe was torn apart, Alice looked down and suddenly shouted out.

Her stomach… has become almost transparent!
