Age of Adepts

Alice stretched out her hands trembling.

There seemed to be a strange source of light in her stomach, spilling strange silver energy. And it was these silver energies that penetrated her skin, flesh, bones, tendons, dyeing everything silver and white.

Through her translucent belly, Alice is able to clearly see her bowels, stomach bladder slowly creeping, and her rather strange liver, gall bladder, and other strange organs that can't be called names. And under mysterious energy, these visceral organs are becoming a little more transparent, and even the blood vessels that wrap around them, the blood that flows in the diaphragm, can be seen clearly.

Alice's hand fell gently on her belly, but trembled.

As if nothing had happened, her right hand had penetrated the abdominal cavity without touching anything.

Her belly, her guts, her flesh... everything is visible but untouchable. As if… they were in two different spaces from this body.

“What's wrong with me?” Alice was pale and asked Grimm with a stammering head.

“I suppose I asked you that question, didn't I?” Grimm is also a frown wrinkle: “After all, space power is your best...”

It has to be said that the two major systems of time and space have so little knowledge to draw upon.

So Grimm can only tell, Alice, that this is the backlash of space forces in a void stone, but the underlying mechanisms are difficult to describe and interpret in words.

“What would happen if I were totally infected by this space force?” Alice quickly calmed down and asked the most critical questions.

“In my judgment, you are likely to be contaminated with some kind of void creature! ”

“This process of integration must then be interrupted. I'm going to take out the Void Stone! ”

“Alice, don't rush. I've checked it out for you, and your fusion with the Vacant Stone isn't all bad. With your strength, it's usually about 3—5 years before you want to advance to the ranks of wizards. But if you take advantage of this integration, you may not need to wait any longer, you can consider promotion in the near future! ”

“Really?”

After listening to Grimm, Alice was in a sudden, frightened mood.

What happened during this time made Alice unbearably weak during her apprenticeship!

This is a world where wizards are honored, and the only way to gain basic respect and to protect their interests effectively is to become a wizard.

Don't look at Alice as one of the best Wizard Apprentices, she'll get envious eyes everywhere she goes. But as long as she does not become a wizard for a day, she will still not be able to enjoy true freedom and indulgence.

Especially when confronted by a wizard, that disparate status gap between heaven and earth would oppress her inability to breathe, let alone preserve her dignity.

So she also has an incredibly strong desire for an advanced wizard!

“So what do I have to do?” Alice's face was tight and her eyes flashed with hot light.

“Adjust your status.” Grimes chipped in: “Don't interrupt the fusion with the Vacant Stone yet and try to take this power into your own hands. I will find a way to arrange your promotion ceremony in the near future, and then you will use this space power to complete the promotion. ”

“What about the after-effects of fusion with the Void Stone? ”

“These are minor issues. As long as you succeed in becoming a wizard, this can be remedied afterwards! ”

Alice thought twice and finally nodded.

After leaving the bedroom for Alice, Grimm turned to a small lab she had opened.

Here, the central side of the hall is filled with long tables and crates, as well as several experimental stone tables and a small alchemy table.

Now Grimm's low-order demon puppet doesn't need to go to the Alchemy Lab anymore, and it's easy to get it done here. This avoids the snooping of his demon puppet by his heart!

Coming to the front of the first stone platform, lift the masked black cloth, a glass container more than half a metre high, filled with mysterious blue solutions. The solution is loaded with a pair of weird magic gems.

This is a pair of egg-sized amber magic gems with cloudy turquoise clumps wrapped around the center of the gem, like an open-eyed, extinct beast eye.

Even just across the transparent container and its opposite, it gives you the feeling of being paralyzed.

A heavy earthly source of force swoops across the face.

Eye of Petrification!

This is Grimm's biggest trophy after he killed the Sark bloodline wizard.

Of course, Grimm also found books and notes related to blood vein evolution in the remaining storage ring of the other party. However, in the absence of a blood sample of a giant snake, even if he has a strong power over blood witchcraft, the cleverest woman cannot cook without rice and has nowhere to go.

Those lineage families attach great importance to the lineage of their own families, and any individual with lineage power is recorded in the family file once it is examined. Such individuals, whether normal deaths or accidental crashes, are sent by the family to conduct detailed investigations to avoid loss of family blood to outsiders.

So Grimm was right last time to pour the ashes out of Sark's bones.

If he really leaves the remains of Sark, I'm afraid the Himan family is risking war and will have to reclaim them.

This pair of petrochemical eyes is also one of the most precious parts of the Sac Wizard. Grimm has recently been studying statue puppets, lacking this magic gem with strange abilities, which is why the basic activity of the petrochemical eye is maintained with bioactive protection liquid.

Grimm's eyes were covered with red flashes, isolating the power of petrification projected by the eyes of petrification.

To be honest, this power of petrification made him suffer enough during the last Great War. Had it not been for the elementary body of the Flaming Demon, which was extremely resistant to the basic elements, it would have been difficult for even him to escape the petrified ending.

Though he won the battle, Sark was pinched into meat sauce and burned to ash, but it took him a long time to pull out the petrochemical power from his body. Even at some point, the power of petrification and the abyss were all mixed up, causing him a headache.

So Grimm also attaches great importance to how to use these eyes of petrification!

Re-covered the container with a black cloth, the slight paralysis in the body disappeared. Don't look at this black cloth, it can also be a magic object that hides all the magic inside.

Xinfu came to the second stone table, where it was filled with a wide variety of metal parts and mechanical components. But everything is semi-finished, and even if you put them all together, it's just enough metal arms for a statue.

These are Grim's hands-on pieces and his preparations for later Demonic Fighters.

After a period of exploration and exploration, Grimm has learned all about the puppet making that he brought back from the Silver Alliance, and has thus discovered some anomalies.

It can be said that the ancient wizards defined them as metal puppets that could help the wizards fight at the beginning of their study of the puppets. So their initial motive was to fight!

Under the influence of this line of thinking, everything too delicately designed can become anachronistic, so few of the puppets will see sophisticated, body-like pieces of body composition. In order to become a qualified flesh shield and assailant, wizards try to make them as simple and practical as possible when building puppets.

The so-called legs of ordinary metal puppets are actually two chunky, bulky metal columns that will never be divided into these complicated parts like human legs and calf ankle toes. The more sophisticated the design of the metal puppet, the less resistant it will be, instead of casting it all in one piece with the hardest ferrous alloy.

So most of the metal fighters Grimm has seen are unable to complete the more sophisticated knightly martial arts, relying only on indestructible bodies and terrible self-weight to crush the enemy.

The wizards are wrong!

After all, wizards believe more in their abilities and make puppets just to protect themselves so that they can do things smoothly, so wizards do more to make puppets according to their needs than really use them as a wizard's assistant to study them carefully.

Detective Grimm grabbed a wooden box from the corner of the stone table, opened it, and placed five wooden puppets in it and discharged it, making what could be described as a minimal wooden puppet.

Pick up one at random and take a look at it.

The wooden puppet is a crude figure carved out of iron shirt wood and composed of six parts: head, torso and limbs. The body members are fastened together by a nail, and the finer parts of the hand and foot are wrapped in fine wire.

Behind the wooden puppet, Grimm also made a pair of wings out of thin wooden chips and snow rabbit skin, which were simply secured there.

Seriously, Grim's carpentry is really bad.

According to the instruction in the puppet making manual, a normal wooden puppet must find a professional craftsman, use specialized wood, and then be carefully carved to be a qualified work. The wooden puppet in front of him is obviously not carved, not only does the surface wooden prick survive, but the lower right leg of the puppet has been cracked, which at first glance is a defective item.

Apparently, the author of this wooden puppet nailed his legs to a broken leg when he nailed them into the soles of the barbed wire.

For his craftsmanship, Grimm could only shake his head and smile.

But I practiced with it. I almost did!
