Age of Adepts

“Are you going to lean on our witch tower? ”

The skinny, dry Grigg witch looked closely at the witch apprentice in front of him with a skeptical look.

“Yes!” Billis begged restlessly: "My lord, as long as you allow me to continue my studies here, I will do my best to be an apprentice! ”

The Grigg witch gazed and couldn't reside up and down to gauge each other.

Well, elementary strength… not too troublesome a family and organizational background… still a vagrant apprentice… The probability of an eye line being inserted by a family is low based on these pieces of analysis. If any wizard family really wants the idea of the Flame Throne, at least a senior apprentice will likely be reused.

A low-talented junior apprentice expects him to climb slowly to the top and master the secrets inside the witch tower. Such an idea wouldn't even dare a Gringo witch, let alone expect some conspirator to make such a low-level mistake.

So the other side should be a pathetic apprentice!

With this in mind, the shady face of the Grigg witch finally squeezed an ugly smile.

“This witch tower has just been built and is in dire need of people. We would not have taken vagabond apprentices without introduction like you...”

Hearing this, Billis' face, looking forward to the expression, revealed a scorching disconcerting look.

But Geiger's words quickly turned again.

“… but for your sincerity, this wizard can give you a chance…”

“Thank you… thank you…” Billis couldn't help but express his ecstatic gratitude.

“Don't thank me yet, watch your performance first!” As soon as the Grigg wizard emptied, a non-gold and non-iron metal talisman appeared in his hand: "Leave your witchcraft imprint inside and carry it with you, then go to the Advanced Apprenticeship Tory and ask him to arrange a room and work for you. From now on, you will be the apprentice of the Fire Throne! ”

“Yes... I'm on my way!” Billis carefully stamped his personal witchcraft imprint on a metal talisman and put it in his arms before leaving the room after the salute.

When his figure disappeared into the room, the beautiful and enchanting body of the Lin demon emerged beside the Grigg witch's body: "Why did you leave this rookie apprentice behind? Aren't you afraid to leave a hidden danger for the Witch Tower? ”

Seeing Ava come, the fiercely spicy Grigg witch immediately turned into the most caring and considerate husband, carefully held her back and then leaned her right hand over her unusual abdomen, silently sensing the strange rhythm of life.

Although no soul breath is perceived in it, the intensity of life has increased significantly compared to the previous.

Eva Lin sighed ill-humoredly at the Grigg witch, but her eyebrows were filled with pride and strong love.

“Kids like this, though not strong enough, are the easiest to cultivate!” Two people, you've been weary of my feet for a long time, and the Grigg witch suddenly seems to recall the general explanation: “The Witchtower is now a sort of initial stabilisation of the heel, and will certainly be followed by a huge development. Whether it's the owner's family, or other organizational forces, there's going to be some eye-catching. So wedge a few nails in advance to get more control in the future...”

“Humph...” Eva the Lin demon obviously doesn't have a cold about this set: “You human wizards have many hearts and minds, even a small witch tower wants you to compete for so much crap...”

Grigg shook his head: "This isn't bullshit, it's huge profits! If you don't like it, since we built our witch tower, 300 or 400 miles of the surrounding black forest has become our attachment. As long as it remains intact, no one will take away the benefits here. According to my estimation, the Camara family will be sending someone to contact us in the next few days...”

“Camara?” Eva the Lin demon raised her eyebrows and couldn't help but ask: “You mean the nearest wizard family to Songta town? ”

“Of course!” Since Grimm handed over most of the authority of the Fire Throne Witch Tower to Grigg Witch, he has become the great butler of the Witch Tower: “If they move slowly, let the old guys from the Scattered Tallinn Wizards Association smell the smell, I'm afraid the interests here are irrelevant to them...”

Speaking of which, the Grigg witch couldn't help but hold the strands of goat beard under her jaw, and her eyes the size of green beans couldn't help but emit arrogant light.

“What do you mean... the Sandtalin Wizards Association will send someone too? ”

“Not only will he come, but he will soon!” The Grigg witch smiled proudly: “But these guys have always been arrogant and tight. If you want to scrape a layer of oil on them, you have to look at the means of a family... Shh...”

…………

It has to be said that the Grigg Wizard, a centuries-old wild wizard who has been wandering around the middle of the continent, really has a deep understanding of the family of wizards that is difficult for outsiders to understand.

Just the day after Billis joined the Flame Throne, Messengers of the Camara Family and Hatch Wizards of the Scanditalin Wizards Association came to the Witch Tower simultaneously, and they brought goodwill and covenants from their respective families and forces.

The Camara family envoy brought about a pact of equal cooperation in which the two sides, as equal and mutually beneficial partners, jointly exploited resources and land in the hundreds of miles of black forest surrounding the Fire Throne. The Camara family is responsible for contributing to the creation of a small settlement between the witch tower and the town of Pinta that can accommodate a thousand people, while the witch tower is responsible for providing the necessary security.

Once the resulting territory is formed, the Camara family will occupy 70 per cent of the territory and territory, and the Witch Tower will acquire 30 per cent of the territory and the corresponding territory at no cost.

In all respects, this is a good thing that benefits the Fire Throne Witch Tower and does no harm!

After all, this is only a private witch tower for Grimm, and it is difficult to get the full support of the Sarubo family. Without family support, he was on his own, where he went to find the right people, and where he went to raise funds to transform the remote and barren black forest into a habitable place for mankind.

If Grimm wants to monopolize this territory, he can only reject the Camara family's offer and do it himself * independently. It also means that in the next hundred years, he will probably spend most of his time building a cumbersome territory and eating and drinking Lassard's garlic peel for thousands of inhabitants.

And this is undoubtedly unacceptable for Grimm, who has great ambition and ambition!

As for the Sandtalin Wizards Association, the conditions given were somewhat harsh.

As long as Grimm agrees, with the Fire Throne Witch Tower at its core, the Wizards Association intends to build a public city here. But the old guys at the Wizards' Association have always been reluctant to give up control of the city and only give Grimm a profit dividend in the form of a magic crystal.

In the future, the lands, territories, resources and minerals in the surrounding territories will be converted into corresponding magic crystals and fed back to Grimm, without his interfering with the power of public cities.

Such conditions are extremely demanding!

To be honest, Grimm doesn't look too good on the terms offered by both forces.

The conditions on the Scanditalin side were too harsh to override Grimm's power almost entirely. And the Camaras, on the other hand, couldn't come up with what Grimm really needed.

As for their most interested territories and resources, Grimm was concerned only with the latter, but did not catch a cold with the former.

Territory and Territory? Can these make him a level 2 wizard?

His whole mind is now focused on improving his own strength, and he is not passionate about secular power and wealth. If he now has a mature and stable family system, the vast territory and constant resources can play a real role in developing qualified and coherent family successors.

But now he's saying something bad, almost a man struggling, and now even if he gives Grimm a nodal territory, he doesn't have the heart to slowly cultivate the sorcerer apprentice and cultivate the family sorcerer loyal to himself!

So Grim doesn't want to accept either of the terms of the family.

But in that way, he could have offended the local snake and sorcerer's club old guys at the same time. As you can imagine, the future of the Fire Throne Witch Tower must not be much better!

At a difficult time around Grimm, a prepared Grigg witch whispered a few words in his ear, immediately making him smile and shock.

Yin!

The Geiger Witch is an absolute shadow!

So, just the day after the two forces came into contact with Grimm, the monsters came back to life.

A team of adventurers who crossed the Flame Cavern and ran on an adventure to the North Forest suddenly came under attack by a bunch of monsters, and the team of five came back with only one thief.

When he fled back to the makeshift camp covered in blood, he immediately provoked disturbances.

For half a month in a row, the tranquillity of the Black Forest was just a hallucination? Haven't the monsters been cleaned up yet? Did the new monster break into this vacuum?

Serial questioning worries mercenary adventurers...

With their strength, to slaughter those jungle beasts, there is also a considerable risk. Once they encounter those terrible monsters, their ranks will expand by a factor of 10, equipped by a factor of 10, and they will not be able to resist the other party's weird and powerful witchcraft abilities.

The thief who had fled back to the camp was soon taken to the witch tower, and Grimm questioned him in detail in the presence of representatives of both sides.

They were attacked by a monster 70 miles northwest of Flame Cavern, a terrible demon dog with two heads. It led a group of dog demons reaching twenty or thirty and attacked their camp at night.

The thief's partner was easily slaughtered with little resistance, while the thief escaped and overheard a conversation in the wild between the dog demon chief and another terrible Medusa.

It seems… that they are organizing a new tide of beasts ready to strike again at the towers erected by human wizards.

And this information is obviously somewhat unexpected to all sorcerers!
