Age of Adepts

The ash boots have been completed, and the next one is naturally the Flame Armband.

Fire Dragon Blood and Superb Fire Onion are ready to make the Flame Seal, but the Iron of Fire is still half short. This scarcity of high-end resources, combined with Grimm's lack of knowledge of several high-end alchemists, makes it difficult to gather sufficient quantities at short notice.

Just when Grimm thought it would only last another three or five years, he got a big news from Alice.

Fire! Iron's gone!

Grimm, who got the message, arrived at the Fate Tower at the fastest speed, where he waited exactly for Alice, who was frowning deeply.

“What's wrong with the news? ”

“There are no problems with the message, I can be sure that they do have a lot of fire and iron, enough for you to build a witch...”

“Then why are you hesitating? ”

“The problem is, I didn't find them this time, but they did! ”

When Grimm heard the words, he immediately grew back in colour.

If Alice herself divulged the news, Grimm wouldn't have any concerns. But since the other party came to the door on their own initiative, at least two points were made...

First, the other party is absolutely prepared to know what Grimm needs most urgently at the moment.

Secondly, the target of the other party is Grimm, and the other party does not seem to be covering this up.

“Where is she? ”

“In the lobby on the fifth floor! ”

Half an hour later, Grimm finally met the mysterious Northern Witch in a witchcraft hall.

This is a middle-aged witch with an ordinary face, not too old, but she always has a palpitating feeling in her eyebrows.

“Dip, perceived high energy magic field, impervious, unable to scan...” In my mind, the short hint of the chip stunned Grimm slightly.

It's not like he hasn't touched a high-ranking sorcerer, and even the dark sorceress of the third rank can't hide her personality so much. Combined with the feeling of dark palpitations close to each other, Grimm's head trembled slightly, with some initial suspicions that the other might be a Grade 4 witch.

Class 4 witches, even in the northern part of Jiji talent, such powerful witches are once a hundred years old. The other side actually came looking for themselves, which made Grimm a little nervous.

“Are you Grim?” Grim's nervousness seemed to be perceived, as the middle-aged witch asked in a faceless manner.

“Yes!”

“Class 2 Fire Witch? ”

Grimm hesitated for a moment and should be again.

“I have an assignment I need to ask someone to do. The reward for the assignment is 30 kilos of hot iron. Would you accept it?” The middle-aged witch made a direct point.

“Mission?” Grimm licked her lower lip, 30 pounds of flame iron was enough for him to make a flame crest: "Don't know what you need me to do for you? ”

“Molten Fire Core! I need a molten fire core of at least 2 levels! ”

Grimm swallowed deeply and immediately gave a slight ‘I knew this would happen' look to his young, hard face.

Melting cores are typically found only on those higher flame organisms, equivalent to their hearts, and are the core components of all flame essence condensation in the flame organism. And in the world of witches, very few lord-class flame creatures are found, so you can only go to the other world to get the melting core.

A melting core of at least 2 steps means killing a flame lord of 2 or more steps, the difficulty of which is to numb the scalp just thinking about it.

“You don't have to worry about looking anywhere, I have the front coordinates of the first-order flame lord here, you go kill it and bring back its melting core!” The middle-aged witch coldly said, raising her hand, throwing out a flaming red luminescence.

Grimm stretched out his hand and held the light in front of him with a flame barrier.

“Di, strange mental fluctuations were detected, some ectopic world markers were detected... Initially detected as a world marker on the fire element surface, please indicate whether the subject will receive it? ”

Grimm hesitated for a moment and finally let go of spiritual control.

The flaming red light instantly blended into Grimm's brain, Grimm's eyes closed slightly, covering the blue light that kept flashing deep inside his pupils with a low eyelid, and quickly extracted the world marker hidden in the mental power signal.

And at the same time, a strange scene fragment, printed with mental energy, began to emerge in Grimm's mind.

This is a strange world made entirely of flames.

The sky is burning, the earth is burning.

Even the basics that make up the contours of mountains, rivers, rocks, grass, etc. between the heavens and the earth are burning slowly.

And in this world of flames, a tall human figure composed of surrounding flames is standing still in the middle of the picture. Its head is about 10 meters long, and its entire body is bound by strange flames of golden yellow. A beautifully styled, magical collar is embedded on its hands, feet and waist neck.

It is by virtue of the constraints of these magic collars that those strange golden flames flow slowly only within its translucent flame body, without half a filament escaping to the outside world.

And through that tall, mighty body of flame, you can almost see the heart of that dark, red, bright, strange flame in its chest, the core of the melting flame.

The chip is still working.

In addition to decoding an unknown world signpost of the fire element world, this spiritual power map captures a hint of the origin of the tall fire lord. With this scent, Grimm will no longer be worried that he will mistake "man" when he sees the Flame Lord again!

Stage 2… is indeed a 2nd stage flame lord.

“Your Excellency…” Grimm said carefully in his own tone: "Want me to go to the fire element, snipe this fire lord there, and bring back its melting core? ”

Grimm can only use the word 'sniper' to describe this task.

There is no way, the four great elements are originally a multifaceted and strange world. Of course, all of the fire elements that live inside are pure fire elements, and they are herd creatures. A second-degree fire lord, in the fire-element position, will occupy at least a huge territory of several hundred miles, and his army of fire-elements will not be less than 100,000.

Grimm went there alone, don't say if he can beat the fire lord alone, I'm afraid the other party's army of fire elements can put him out without any residue.

That's why Grimm deliberately chose the word 'sniper', otherwise he wouldn't have thought of any other way to take out a second-degree flame lord with super strength and a huge legion.

By this point, Grimm was somewhat aware of each other's intentions.

The other party wants to melt the core of the fire to be fake, and the real purpose is to kill the second level flame lord.

The other side is much more powerful than herself, but she still can't help herself in the face of a fire lord hiding in the presence of fire elements. Without it, the properties of the fire-element surface make it possible for any outsider to access it at will, but it is difficult to survive there.

There is no air, no water, no food, no roads… all there is is a strange flame that burns constantly. When non-flame creatures arrive there, they can only hold on to their magical defenses at all times and resist the invasion of the entire world.

And there, there are only fire elements, and other elemental lineage wizards, even if they survive, find it difficult to supplement them from the outside world. It also makes sense for all the other parties to name names to look for the Fire Witch.

At least the Fire Witches get there so that they can't fight back, and they can't be polished out of all their witchcraft. As for whether or not to beat the Flame Lord, it's Grimm's personal problem!

“Do you... agree?” The middle-aged witch asked coldly.

Grimm hesitated for a moment before turning around to see Alice, and her spiritual phrase rang in her head.

“Promise her! I promise there's no trap in there! ”

Grim, this is the big deal. Nod your head and promise.

Alice frowned slightly as she listened at the corner of the hall, revealing a glimmer of doubt on her face.

Apparently worried about Grimm's repentance, the middle-aged witch pulled out a deed of witchcraft directly from her arms and threw it at him.

“You can look at the contract and sign it if you agree! ”

As soon as Grimm's eyes swept, he had seen the witchcraft contract on the sheepskin scroll in a clear and clear way. Indeed, what was said above is exactly the same as what was promised by the other party, and no falsehoods or traps have been found.

Grimm sighed and slowed down: “Your Excellency, if you believe me, why don't you give me the fire iron deal first, so I can be more confident in accomplishing this task! ”

“No problem with this!” There seemed to be no apprehension that Grimm would break his promise, and the middle-aged witch threw out another wooden earring, which contained exactly the thirty kilos of fire and iron that Grimm desperately needed.

Since the other party is so refreshed, Grimm naturally won't grind, and the front of his finger gathers a little mental distraction, gently pressing the down payment under the witchcraft contract. As a flame imprint slowly emerged on it, the bright yellow halo, representing the founding of the contract, instantly disappeared into Grimm and the middle-aged witch.

This source contract is also quite binding on the wizard. If a wizard dares to violate the contract of origin, he will suffer the contractual backlash, so that his soul will no longer be able to penetrate. If this contract were concluded by a fourth-level witch, I'm afraid the effect of witchcraft would be as high as one or two hundred years.

This also means that Grimm will not be able to complete his contract in one day and his own strength will not be able to progress in one day!

This is something no wizard would want to try easily...
