Age of Adepts

What are the benefits of robbing a monster lord?

Grim didn't want to answer that question because he was laughing.

The deepest depths of the spider's lair have been opened by old spiders into many separate * caves, each containing very valuable metallic ores and rare resources in separate categories.

With centuries of hard work collecting old spiders, the thickness of the bottom of the house makes Grimm talk!

Of course, because the monsters lack a sophisticated metal ore extraction system, most of their stockpiles are relatively good natural metal crystals and magic gems.

In the old spider's warehouse, Grimm discovered a large quantity of natural ferrous metal blocks, which were also one of the basic materials used by the wizards to create ferrous alloys. In addition to Magic Iron, Grimm also discovered Cervoir, Secret Silver, Krypton Gold, Precision Gold and Constant Gold Ore, as well as numerous Magic Gems such as Shadow Stone, Cat Eye Stone, Emerald Raw Stone, Yellow Crystal...

Apart from ore and gems, of course, old spiders have magic stones full of warehouses.

Magic stones and crystals, though also magic creatures, are a lot lower. Magic stones are formed when nature's stones absorb excess magic elements, so the magic immersed in them is extracted and a large amount of broken residue is formed. The Magic Crystal, on the other hand, is purely a crystal formed by intense magic elements under intense external force compression, and the number of magic stored in a unit volume is much higher than the Magic Stone.

Overall, the magic stone structure is stable, but can absorb less magic and has residue. The structure of the Magic Crystal is not very stable, but it contains a high total Magic value with no residue after crushing.

So both high-order figurines and witch arrays need crystals as a source of magic, and stones can only be used on low-end occasions. The exchange ratio between the two is approximately maintained at 10 Magic Stones = 1 Magic Crystal.

As for the nests of monsters in the black forest, they do not have the ability to refine and compress the crystals, so most of the stones used and accumulated are self-excavated. Grimm roughly estimated that the amount of magic stones accumulated by old spiders was around 7.8 million, or 780,000 if converted into magic crystals.

While the war costs of witch towers cannot be completely offset, they are no small complement.

Besides, Grimm sent more than one search team. If both of the other teams had similar gains, there might be some savings after offsetting the war losses!

Of all the discoveries, however, Grimm was most pleased with a rare bottle of 'vein blood'.

This is a big complement to the native blood wizards. If you get the Wizard Trading Market, at least you can buy 30,000 Demon Crystals.

In addition, there are large quantities of metallic ore associated resources, such as dark crystals, tea crystals, black jades, elemental soils… or some plant resources that are unique to the black forest, such as millennial woods, giant roots, demonic vine seeds, solar flowers…

Among these cluttered resources, Grimm also discovered a small laboratory full of bizarre spidery biospecimens and a large number of unshaped embryos. After a thorough search, Grimm also discovered a crystal of knowledge in Miguel, in the lab, which seemed to record knowledge of the biotransformation experiments and parts of the soul carried out by Tula over the years.

Don't look, monsters don't have the perfect and comprehensive inheritance system as wizards do, but every ambitious monster secretly conducts some related research in private. However, their research is isolated and covert, and there has been virtually no mutual exchange.

So every monster wants to study something, it needs to start from scratch, and there's absolutely no available knowledge and technology to learn from.

And the result of this kind of research is that the studies of monsters are always fragmented and one-sided. While there are no shortage of bright spots, most of them flow to the surface due to the backwardness of knowledge and technological means, unable to reveal the deep secrets of the wizard world thoroughly!

The number of alienated spiders and spidered creatures hidden throughout the spider cave shows that Tula is also a man who is passionate about reproduction and transformation of descendants. However, the low level of combat power of its modified descendants also augurs well for the ordinary nature of Tula's biotransformation talents and constructions.

But Grim is not picky about these.

The knowledge crystal was placed on his forehead for less than five seconds, and the massive amount of data and information in it was reproduced completely by him. Then, under the filter and screening of the chip, 78% of the repetitions and errors are removed, and the rest are stored in an orderly manner by the chip.

Grimm is not interested in how spider eggs can be combined with powerful organisms to create spidered organisms. But there's a lot of exploration of soul research in there, and it means more to him than ever.

To be honest, Grimm has acquired knowledge related to the soul for a long time and still has nothing to gain. Research in this area appears to be being carried out by large sorcerer organizations and forces, and the related knowledge and progress are being tightly blocked.

There is no way for ordinary wizards to obtain relevant content, let alone conduct thorough and effective witchcraft experiments.

So in the Grim chip library, there's almost zero knowledge about the soul. Though most of these studies are shallow, there are still many errors in them, but they remain of great significance for Grimm's guidance!

Especially the two or three soul-related witchcraft last stored in the knowledge crystal that Grimm loves. If it wasn't for the right time and place, he couldn't help but feel restless and immediately wanted to get first-hand information about them.

After all, for a wizard, new knowledge and new witchcraft are the things that interest him most and are the biggest drivers of continuous progress!

There is too much wealth and resources in the spider's lair to take away by Grimm and Anguga alone. So Grimm left Anguga to guard the place, and he took Medusa Dana back to the witch tower with the scorpion lion, and let his disciple, Am Associate Witch, move back and forth with a bunch of apprentices and a few scorpion lions.

Anyway, the monsters and large creatures in the nearby black forest are almost dead, and there's no need to worry about their safety. So when Grimm gave them the coordinates of the spider's nest, he let go and began to hide in the witch tower and study the contents of the knowledge crystal.

And Medusa Dana, also known as the Critical Injury, stayed in the witch tower and carefully cultivated.

Of course, Merrill and the Geiger witches also returned with their teams.

Although the process was somewhat volatile, the two men also brought Grimm back a long list of resources and many strange objects.

Like Grimm, every monster chief's lair has plenty of resources and private storerooms. Due to the limited storage space of the two teams, only those rare treasures can be picked up and brought back. The remaining materials need to be slowly sorted out and relocated.

For those ordinary resources, of course, they were handed over to the Grigg Witch, who unified their income into the warehouse of materials, and used them as the basic resources for the future of the Witchtower. Those rare and expensive resources, however, have been carefully screened and are still mostly handed over to the Geg Witch for unified scheduling. As for the particularly rare, they were all taken into the private room by Grimm.

In order to close the hearts of the three Demon Dogs and Medusa, their nest, Grimm, remained intact and remained in their charge. So the clearance is mainly focused on hunting spider tura, raging giant baboons, bird demons and snake demons' nests.

Although bird demons and snake demons are also sincere monsters, but their strength is limited, without the treatment of two monster chiefs, they can only pinch their noses and contribute all their heads to Grimm, leaving only some of their tribes and their own resources in need.

Continuous relocation lasted for more than a decade until the last Silver League Olympians rushed in with the construction team, sick woods, no, and the noise still raging in the pile was doubtful if it was the wrong place to go.

The once ill forest has disappeared completely, replacing it with a pile of cluttered stones in a circle of five. The dark soil is mixed with shattered rocks and fragments of ancient trees after their overthrow… these are the last traces of smear from past ill woods.

At this moment, however, a giant hole was dug out in the centre of the pile of rocks, and a new underground tunnel, winding and twisting, was opened. In addition to the scorpion lions who serve as transporters, there are also a number of low-order monsters that are common in the black forest.

They're like the hardest of all, constantly unloading a box of heavy objects from a loaded scorpion lion, and then humming, hey, tough lifting to the ground.

Faced with a sudden arrival of ‘strangers', a crowd of bird demons flew into the sky, carrying rough and simple spears and long guns, blocking them from the periphery. On the ground, seven or eight adult men with long, snake-tailed serpents swayed their bodies and grabbed the snowy, narrow battle and came close.

The Silver Robe Wizards came this time with a floating disc unique to the Silver Alliance. Its flight altitude, though not as high as that of a floating boat, is flexible and more suitable for short-range flights within a hundred miles.

“Hasn't the Wizard Tower resisted the monster's attack and become a Garden of Monsters?” A silver robe Ory wizard couldn't bear to speak.

“No, I'm afraid the opposite is true!” The answer is the Eugene Wizard who is responsible for protecting the two Oui Wizards: “Look at the hole...”

The Silver Robe Oui Wizard carefully measured the figure of the Wizard Apprentice or Apprentice found at the edge of the hole. They are not captives or slaves of these monsters, but, rather, like supervisors of the site, they are being dispatched by high-toed commanders.

Seeing the silver robes on Eugene and others, Kodal Quasi-Witch hurried back the bird demons and snake demons and greeted them himself.

“Didn't you know you were dignified wizards from Rudd Finney's? ”

“Well, we do come from Rudd Finney's. ”

“That's great, my teacher is waiting for you in the witch tower. Come with me, please! ”

Several silver wizards looked at each other with suspicion and stumbled into a sulphurous and flaming underground tunnel behind Kodar.
