Age of Adepts

Spann had a very strange dream!

In the dream, he seemed to have turned into a strange beetle, only the size of a fingernail, crawling quickly among the towering green grass.

'It' bypassed the huge stones (soil particles) that got in the way, climbed over a tree that reached the sky (fire stick), and climbed up the towering mountain in front of it. Finally, after going through untold hardships, trekking through thousands of mountains and rivers, and passing through various tests, it came to a dark cave with viscous liquid slowly flowing out.

Without the slightest hesitation, it dived into it and disappeared into the pitch-black space in an instant...

Spang shivered coldly and got up from the grass.

Rubbing his drowsy head that was throbbing with pain, he also couldn't figure out why he suddenly fell asleep here. And...and the little bug in the dream just now was so real that Spand couldn't help wiping the saliva from the corner of his mouth and smacking his tongue.

It seems... It seems that there is a disgusting stench!

I couldn't be controlled by some hidden monster in the misty canyon, otherwise, how could I have such absurd 'daydreams'? Span shook his head, and was about to feel the abnormality in his body with all his strength, but was startled by the sound of wheels rattling on the forest path not far away.

The carriage for transporting the condemned prisoners is here!

These damn mortals who are not punctual, it is time to find an opportunity to teach them a lesson.

With an uncontrollable anger, Spann stepped forward to meet him.

And just when Span and the black prison car were handing over, on the top of the canyon cliff in the distance, a figure shrouded in black robe turned his head, through the heavy fog and the luxuriant tree canopy, he cast his eyes on this place from afar. On the body of an intermediate apprentice.

In the shadow of the drooping hood, the dense green worm-like compound eyes flashed with a strange light that outsiders could not understand.

"Little darlings, lurk down with peace of mind! When the fruit grows to the sweetest moment, remember to bring back their soul, flesh and spiritual power... Jie Jie Jie..."

Hearing the hoarse and deep worm hiss, it was the strange voice of the worm witch Billis.

In this resource point of the Kamala family, there is 1 level 1 wizard and 37 wizard apprentices. With the current strength of the worm witch Billis, it is easy to kill them.

But it was rare to meet such excellent puppet hosts, how could Billis be willing to slaughter them so easily. You must know that in the Sandalin area where wizard rules are strict, if an alienated wizard like him kills freely, it will easily attract the intervention of those high-level wizards.

Only in this kind of wizard war between families can the two sides do everything they can without worrying about the intervention of high-ranking wizards.

The resource point in front of him is a target selected by Billis.

Of course, sending out the bug army to wipe them all out and plunder all the resources, such a simple killing has not aroused Billis' interest. The biggest purpose of his trip is to spread his newly bred heart-eating worms in the Misty Canyon.

Even the two first-level wizards were not spared, and all the wizards and apprentices in the Misty Canyon were invaded by the heart-eating worms he sent out. With their strength, if they don't use some special witchcraft or means, they won't be able to detect the existence of the borer worms at all.

And as long as the heart eaters are given some opportunities to grow, everything the other party has will become a stepping stone for Billis to continue to grow.

Ever since he was promoted to the second level, how to develop and strengthen himself has become the only thing that the worm witch Billis cares about!

And this family war is undoubtedly the best stage for him to 'kill' and 'harvest' to his heart's content.

He needs the other party's soul, he needs the other party's flesh and blood, and he needs the other party's hard-earned mental strength...

Through soul induction, after confirming that all the living individuals in the Misty Canyon had been settled by the borers, Billis turned and left.

No hurry, no hurry, he is not in a hurry to harvest these delicious fruits that need to be watered. This war is still going on, he has plenty of time to wait slowly, waiting for these cute little bugs to bring back everything the enemy has...

…………

Greem is very busy.

In addition to many family affairs, there are also a large number of captives waiting for him to deal with in the Flaming Throne Wu Tower.

In the sealed room on the 2nd floor of the Wu Tower, in addition to the Tier 3 vampire captured during the last war, a powerful Tier 3 dragonman prisoner was added recently. And in the prison on the basement floor of the Wu Tower, there are still 11 Tier 2 Dragonmen imprisoned.

These dragon people have solid eyes, and it is extremely difficult to force them to submit.

And the Crimson family lacks enough powerful necromancers or guys who are proficient in crafting witch beasts, so it is difficult to transform them into powerful undead creatures or witch beasts. So after discussing with Gargamel, Meryl, and Alice, Greem could only list them for sale in Kirby's Goblin Chamber of Commerce.

Even if a Tier 2 dragonman is only used as a living experiment, the price is not cheap.

Therefore, all Tier 2 dragonman Greems were listed for sale at 5,000 magic crystals each, and the Tier 3 dragonman was listed directly for 17,000 magic crystals.

In addition, a large number of high-level dragon materials emerged from the Goblin Chamber of Commerce at the same time, such as dragon crystals, dragon brains, dragon bones, dragon horns, dragon teeth, dragon tendons, dragon pupils, dragon spine liquid, dragon blood, dragon scales, and A rare material for special lovers - Dragon Whip!

The materials listed for sale range from grade 1 to grade 2, which is simply dazzling.

What's even more frightening is that there are scattered Tier 3 giant dragon materials in it. Although some good-for-nothings feel that the material was picked too rough and the quality has declined after tasting, but it still can't stop the eagerness of wizards to wave their magic crystals to buy.

Tier 3 dragon materials are just Tier 3 dragon materials. Even if the quality is a little lower, it still cannot be replaced by low-level dragon materials. Moreover, many large-scale witch formations or third-level witchcraft often require the lowest level of layout materials to be third-level, which also causes all high-level monster materials to be in short supply forever.

Even those large wizarding families or forces, if they have nothing to do, they have to collect enough Tier 3 materials and reserve them for emergencies.

It stands to reason that if the Crimson family did not have the backing of the Lance plane, which is full of dragons, none of these materials would dare to sell. With them, the Crimson Clan was able to deploy a more powerful attacking witch formation in the Wu Tower.

At that time, let's see which idiots dare to call at the door!

Now, with the support of the plane of Lance, the dragon card materials are available in a steady stream, and the Crimson family has the confidence to release them in exchange for much-needed magic crystals and other resources. Otherwise, no one would be willing to sell this strategic resource!

Any wizarding family that wants to thrive must have a stable source of magic crystal income. Or open up resource points, or plunder the world of another plane, or monopolize a certain industry... and most of these are time-consuming and extremely dangerous. A bad situation is a chicken-and-egg situation.

And Greem now has two secondary planes in his hands, a large amount of cheap metal and countless technician talents from the goblin plane, and cute monsters piled up like magic crystals from the Lance plane. The giant dragon... the continuous infusion of fresh and nutritious blood can make the Crimson family continue to grow.

Only when the Crimson family grows stronger can it better support Greem's continuous improvement in personal strength.

This...seriously speaking, it is a complementary relationship that complements each other!

At least, the current Crimson family is supported by the solid iron triangle of Greem, Mary and Alice, and the speed of development and growth will definitely far exceed that of ordinary wizard families.

However, although the development momentum of the Crimson Family is strong, there are still many hidden worries, and it has already brought heavy psychological pressure to Greem in disguise.

That is his personal strength!

In the current Crimson Clan, the number of Tier 2 wizards and creatures has reached double digits, and there are even three Tier 3 creatures that were abducted by fraud. But as the patriarch of the Crimson Family, Greem is still a Tier 2 body, which...in every respect, it's a bit too low!

It is precisely because Greem's level is too 'low' that the crimson family's current situation is unstable.

The Tier 3 Thunder Dragon and Emerald Dragon Girl were restless, and the Tier 2 Worm Witch was chasing closely. If Greem didn't have convincing and fearsome strength as the leader, his position would not be stable.

This is also a situation faced by most wizard families!

The head of all wizarding families must be the most powerful, not the wisest and wisest. Why? The reason is very simple. The centripetal force that maintains the family rule is not the corporals of the virtuous and the wise, but the bloody power and terrorist methods of the red aloe fruit that crush everything!

With the strength to crush everything, there will naturally be smart scholars and wise men to share your worries, and there will be shrewd managers to take care of everything for you. But if the leader of the faction is weaker than his subordinates, then the faction will always be restless and suspicious.

At that time, the struggle and division within the forces alone will cause them to disintegrate and disappear naturally!

Therefore, under Alice's explicit or covert prompts, Greem also began to treat his promotion to the third level as the top priority of the family.

"Chip, show me my latest data..."

"Hey, the body scan is over, the latest data is as follows..."

"Grimm, Level 2 Advanced, Occupational Status: Elemental Sorcerer (Fire Specialization), Basic Physical Data: Strength 13+1 (20), Constitution 15 (21), Dexterity 11 (9), Spirit 28+1 (30), note: The post-transformation data in brackets, professional skills: Body of Flame, Balrog Transformation..."

With the end of his journey to the Fire Elemental Plane, Greem's basic strength has also developed by leaps and bounds. In less than 30 years since he was promoted, he has already jumped to the second level advanced level, and he is only a short step away from the peak state.

And his flame talent has reached its peak, and there is no way to improve it in a short period of time.

At this point, it's time for him to consider advancing to Tier 3!
