Gargamel waited at the Throne of Fire for two full days before he could see Grim.
At this time, Greem's whole body was completely enveloped by a layer of invisible flames, and his whole body seemed to be in a violent burning state.
Although he had tried his best to contain the overflowing flame energy, the temperature of this living room immediately began to soar sharply as Grim entered. If Gargamel was still the first-level little wizard from before, he would probably be half-cooked by now.
Even after transforming into the bloodline of a giant snake and possessing a strong physique and excellent magic resistance, Gargamel still felt various discomforts in the hot and brutal environment here, which was similar to a lava volcano. However, the owner of the house was burning like a substance.
Under his gaze, green smoke still appeared from Gargamel's body covered with fine snake scales.
"Sorry, my mental power has improved a bit too quickly recently, and my ability to control flame energy has declined..." Seeing that his gaze almost set Gargamel's body on fire, Greem could only helplessly turn his head to
There is no one around.
No wooden or metal objects can be seen in the entire hall, and even the only tables and chairs are made of obsidian with excellent fire resistance.
Mental power increased too quickly... energy control ability declined... This is probably the first time Gargamel has heard similar complaints since he became a wizard.
As a wizard, I have always complained that my mental power is improving too slowly, and no one has ever complained about my mental power improving too quickly.
This, perhaps, is what makes the owner unique!
Gargamel grinned and thought.
"Is there anything important happening in the family recently that requires you to come here? I remember that the last time I contacted you, everything was calm!" Greem said lazily, as if he had lost his previous enthusiasm for things other than witchcraft.
interest.
"Master, the last time we connected remotely was a year ago..." Gargamel said with a helpless smile.
"Has it been a year? Time flies by so fast!" Greem murmured: "Okay, tell me the purpose of your coming!"
"Yes, Master!" Gargamel hesitated: "President Fried of the Sand Tallinn Association wants to meet you!"
"Who? Fried? President of the association...what does he want to see me for?"
Gargamel quickly bowed and explained: "Sir, the reason why we were able to pacify the Ellowis area so quickly last time was because President Freed put a lot of effort behind the scenes. And this time he sent a message to the Goblin Business Alliance through the Goblin Business Alliance.
If we express this meaning, it is very likely..."
"Probably what?"
"It's possible that I want to force you, the head of the family, to make a choice..."
"Choose between Sandtallin and Northland?"
"Yes, my lord, the old guys like Sandi Tallin have always been very wary and cautious about the infiltration of the three major forces, and the relationship between our Crimson Family and the Witch of Destiny cannot be hidden from anyone. So..."
"So they just want to meet, weigh my weight, and then pull me into their small circle?"
"Yes, my lord, judging from the information obtained so far, this may be the only explanation!"
"So, the benefits they gave us before were just bait? When we swallowed the Ellowes area entirely, it was equivalent to swallowing bait. With such a big piece of fat, they were sure that we wouldn't
He was willing to spit it out, so he chose this moment to force us to show our cards..." Greem analyzed calmly, but the invisible transparent flame outside his body was obviously not calm.
The indoor temperature has risen again!
Gargamel licked his chapped lips, lowered his head and said nothing.
For matters like this that can affect the future direction of the family, he is only responsible for providing the part of the information he knows. As for what the family head will choose, he is beyond his control.
When wizards are at different heights, their perspectives and ideas on the same problem will be very different. Therefore, Gargamel does not dare to influence the family leader's choice with his shallow views. Anyway, just follow the footsteps of the family leader!
A full quarter of an hour passed before Greem spoke again.
"You go and reply to them. I agree to meet with President Fried. The meeting place will be arranged by them. However, the time must be set in half a year. My current situation is not suitable for going out!"
"yes!"
Gargamel took the order and left without hesitation.
When the reception hall returned to calm, a hazy female silhouette suddenly appeared next to Greem.
"Have you decided?" Alice's soft and calm voice came from the shadow.
"Um!"
"This is actually good. Although the Northland is calm on the surface, it is extremely xenophobic in private. The development of the family here has always been restricted by the witch faction. On the contrary, it is not as good as Sand Tallinn. It is not a monolithic place and is suitable for the rapid rise of new families.
."
"By the way, those old guys won't use any dirty tricks to deal with me, right?"
"..." Alice couldn't help but was speechless for a while: "Where did you think you were! Not only will there be no harm in your going this time, but there will be some unexpected benefits. However, these benefits are not easy to get, so you have to weigh it yourself!
"
"benefit?"
"Okay, don't ask anymore. You know, things like prophecies cannot be spoken easily, otherwise fate will have some unpredictable bifurcations."
Grim nodded silently.
After working with Alice for such a long time, he did have a certain understanding of destiny.
The last time he traveled to Enverk's plane, it was because Alice informed Grim of something in advance that his journey to the other world became ups and downs, he narrowly escaped death, and almost ended up trapped there forever.
Destiny is always unknown and unpredictable!
Even the Witch of Destiny, who exists as the controller of destiny, cannot completely make destiny follow the trajectory set by herself. Just like the number of cheeses upside down in a wooden bowl, Alice may be able to know the exact number before opening it with her destiny perception.
.But once Alice affects the fate of people or things based on this exact result, then some unexpected changes will occur to things that were originally certain.
Or a cat accidentally breaks in and knocks over the wooden bowl, or the cheese is eaten by mice, or the temperature is too high and the cheese melts... There are too many accidents, too many changes, and anything that happens may affect the original
The result is already certain.
This is the fundamental reason why most destiny controllers are so taciturn!
Powerful people often laugh at destiny practitioners and call them useless bystanders. Many times, even if they see through it, they are trapped by the rules of destiny and cannot roam freely.
They are like playing 'stud' with God every day. Even if you win for the rest of your life, one failure may make you never reincarnate.
Those who are wiser keep their mouths shut and do not easily interfere with the flow of fate, so they can barely survive on their own. But those who are too active or overestimate their own capabilities will sooner or later be counterattacked by fate and die.
And Greem obviously knew his way deeply, so he never forced Alice to challenge the rules of fate, and he never thought about gaining any benefits by relying on the power of fate.
And this is one of the main reasons why Alice continues to be strong!
After a few simple exchanges, the shadow projected by Alice slowly dissipated.
Greem also returned to the laboratory on the fifth floor of the Witch Tower amid a flash of flames.
In the corner of the hall, a tall and powerful elemental magic weapon stood quietly there, its smooth and perfect lines made of super alloy shimmering with a dull blue luster.
After a long period of repair, the trauma suffered by the elemental magic weapon in the Enverk plane was restored bit by bit. In this repair, Greem even used some newly refined magic memory metal.
The Goblin Research Institute established in the White Tower in the North, after spending a lot of Greem's magic crystals and massive resources, finally came up with some decent works, and Magic Memory Metal is one of them.
This special magic metal, which can only be refined and purified in the alchemy laboratory, has a strange memory function. Once the magic alloy is shaped by special means, it can remember this form. Even if it is penetrated in the battle,
Even if they are cut off, shredded or twisted out of shape, they can be reassembled and restored to their original form under the stimulation of sufficient energy.
With such magic memory metal, coupled with the small magic furnace inside the elemental magic weapon, Greem does not have to worry about battle damage when he goes to another world to drive it to fight. As long as you give it a certain amount of time, as long as the magic moves
As long as the furnace is not exploded, it can return to its best combat form.
Therefore, as soon as the local Elf Research Institute came up with this result, Greem used his authority to upgrade and transform the elemental magic equipment first.
As for the magic weapon Puppet Dragon, my dear, it is such a huge metal mountain. If you want to transform the whole body into this kind of expensive magic memory metal, it is simply burning the magic crystal like crazy. Therefore, Greem only approved the use of some
The core components were replaced with this special magic alloy. Otherwise, even if he really had a magic crystal mountain, he would be burned down by those goblins in one go.
With the current human resources and financial situation of the Goblin Research Institute, it can only temper five kilograms of magic memory metal every day, and the cost is about 1,700 magic crystals.
After giving priority to internal use within the family, about twenty kilograms of magic memory metal can be sold to the outside world every month. And their external sales price is based on grams, 20 magic crystals per gram.
Greem has been hiding in the Throne of Fire for these years and has been secretly absorbing the souls of the Holy Light, and his mental power has also begun to skyrocket crazily. But even so, it took him fifteen years to fully let his mental power rise.
From 27 points to 29 points, it is only one step away from the peak state.
Such rapid growth in mental power also reduced his control over himself.
Therefore, he would give himself half a year's buffer time to stabilize his unstable mental state.
And time is obviously on his side! (To be continued)
