Like the last calm before a super storm, the atmosphere in the swamp tower is quite eerie.
In this small wizard family resource point, all the wizard apprentices add up to only 49 people, and 3 of them are junior apprentices who have just learned meditation.
Among such a group of apprentices with low overall strength, four well-known quasi-witches appeared out of thin air. And any one of these four quasi-witches would probably be regarded as an outstanding person in the group of quasi-witches.
Such a weird situation would make people scream evil if placed anywhere!
After all, any quasi-witch needs to consume a lot of resources to appear, and if they want to become a witch, they also need a lot of resources and a little bit of luck. With the current situation of the Swamp Tower, it is difficult to support a quasi-witch.
It was a lucky stroke, not to mention that four of them appeared at once.
Perhaps because of the existence of these four quasi-witches, the Sarupo family's emphasis on the Magic Swamp is also increasing day by day. In addition to the mission hall, Kroot's Secret Cabin, Bobolier Trading Company, Defens Gourmet Association, Fenrir
Pet shops... these shops specially opened for wizard apprentices, and trading companies have also moved into the Swamp Tower one after another.
And mixed in among them, the goblin shop opened by Goblin Kirby also opened prosperously.
What is different from others is that from time to time, one or two exquisite items will appear in Kirby's goblin shop, either magic gems, witchcraft materials, or witchcraft equipment. In short, no matter what kind it is,
, will trigger a frantic rush by many middle- and high-level apprentices.
As for the unassuming Goblin Kirby, he also has a lofty status among the tower apprentices that is difficult for outsiders to reach. For no other reason than the three quasi-witches standing behind him, no one in the swamp tower dares to
Go provoke it.
Ever since Alice became a member of the tower, she originally thought that she would be driven by Grim to do this and that every day. Who knew that from that day on, she had never seen this nominal "master" again. This was unexpected to her.
, this Greem turned out to be a reclusive man who never left his house. Every day he would either hide in his residence and read books, or he would secretly tinker with something in the alchemy laboratory.
And his three meals a day are delivered to his residence personally by Goblin Kirby, and he doesn't show up at all on weekdays. Although this makes Alice less embarrassed about meeting, it also makes her feel a little bit neglected.
Angry.
Over the course of a few days, Alice interrogated the goblin Kirby over and over again, and found out from its mouth all of Grim's deeds from his rise to the present. In addition, she also used her status as a quasi-witch to learn from several high-level wizards.
The tower apprentice learned about what Grim had done in his early days.
It can be said that the more Alice learned, the more confused she became!
If a person's life has its own set of circumstances, then Mary's life trajectory is clear at a glance.
Mary's truly noteworthy apprenticeship all started with that witchcraft experiment. Before she became a vampire, her life was mediocre. After becoming a vampire, she began to soar, jumping directly from junior to senior, and then became an associate.
The scenery of witch.
So, what changed Mary’s life was the weird witchcraft experiment led by Wizard Anderson!
From this information, Alice can clearly see Mary's development, and can also estimate the height she may reach in life based on her actions. Everything is so clear and intuitive!
But such a theory makes little sense when applied to Grim!
The turning point of Grim's change was almost the same as Mary's. He seemed to suddenly possess some kind of magical power overnight. This often made Alice wonder whether the wizard Anderson was doing experiments on Mary at the same time.
What did they do to Greem? Otherwise, his changes in the following period would be simply astonishing!
During the three-month mission, he grew from a junior apprentice to a senior apprentice, and also passed through the intermediate apprentice stage with mediocre strength. And his secret to victory was the invincible elemental puppet. As for himself, he was obviously
is the elemental wizard route.
Alice still has fresh memories of the elemental puppets in Greem's hands. Her two tragic defeats were all due to these hateful elemental puppets!
Sufficient quantity, wide variety, powerful and extremely targeted!
This is Alice's personal evaluation of these elemental puppets.
It stands to reason that if such an elemental puppet is operated according to the method of summoning elemental life, it will not only require special witchcraft rituals, but also require the summoner to bear a huge mental burden. It will never be possible to do it with ease like Greem.
Alice had also noticed that every time Greem summoned an elemental puppet, he needed elemental crystal nuclei as witchcraft materials, and the runes on the crystal nuclei looked like they had been deeply modified. Therefore, she dared to conclude that he could
The deep secret that makes Greem so powerful must be hidden in these crystal nuclei.
For this reason, she deliberately wanted to get close to Greem and get more answers from him to unravel these mysteries. Unfortunately, that Greem turned out to be a well-known otaku who rarely left home.
Personal maids are completely useless.
So, after seven days of forbearance, Alice snatched the dinner plate from Goblin Kirby's hand and stood at the door of Grim's Residence instead of it. The only one who could freely enter and exit Grim's Residence was the annoying Mary, and even Goblin Kabi
Every time you deliver food, you need Grim's permission to enter.
It didn't take long for Greem to finally remove the protection on the portal after sensing Alice's mental fluctuations.
Reaching out to push open the door, Alice strode in holding a tray.
The room is still as simple as ever.
It's even messier than last time!
It was clearly daytime, but the lighting crystal on the wooden table still glowed with a bright and soft light that was not dazzling. This made Alice wonder whether the other party had been busy from last night to now without taking a break at all?
The ground was littered with discarded parchments, some rolled together, some spread out, some crumpled into a ball... Each one was painted with densely packed and extremely complicated rune lines and mysterious witch formations.
Alice had not done much research on witch formations, so she felt a headache when she saw this highly professional and mysterious knowledge.
Standing on tiptoes, carefully avoiding the debris scattered on the floor, Alice came to the wooden table.
The wooden table was also in a mess, with witchcraft books spread out everywhere, stacked one on top of the other, almost covering most of the table. And Greem was prostrate in front of the table.
, was silently drawing something on a piece of parchment one stroke at a time.
But obviously his progress was not smooth.
Halfway through painting, he raised the parchment and examined it diligently. He quickly shook his head, cursed in a low voice, crumpled the parchment into a ball and threw it behind him.
Alice turned her head to avoid the ball of paper that was thrown at her, and angrily placed the dinner plate heavily on the wooden table. Due to her "accident", the pile of books piled high finally collapsed.
Uh...what's going on?
Grim raised his head and glanced around in confusion, but his sullen eyes met Alice's provocative gaze.
"Huh? When did you come?" Greem rubbed his temples and felt a faint tingling in his head.
Since his strength increased greatly, Greem has realized the benefits of high physical fitness.
After three consecutive days and three nights of sleeplessness, if it were in the past, he would have been too exhausted. But now, except for some fatigue caused by excessive mental loss, his body is still as strong and strong as it was three days ago.
And full of vitality.
"I came here today to ask, how are you going to settle me? Just let me wander around in this dirty and dilapidated place like I am now? The witchcraft facilities here are simply too old and backward.
Compared with the outside, this place is simply a wild desert in the wizarding world!" Alice angrily complained with her hands on her waist.
It was obvious that she had had enough of the swamp tower these days.
There are no high-end witchcraft potions, no more normal food and beverages, no high-end materials required for witchcraft experiments, and the personal residence is as simple as a sheepfold... In such a backward and dilapidated place, Alice is simply
I can’t imagine how Greem and the others survived!
If it weren't for the recent changes brought by the trading firms or organizations that settled in the Swamp Tower, Alice felt that she would have rotted in this dark and damp magical swamp.
Facing a hard-working "subordinate" who came to ask for help, Greem showed a happy smile on his face. He picked up a piece of white bread from the dinner plate and put it into Alice's hand. He smiled and said: "If you want to find something to do,
If so, then let me see what you are capable of first. Can you throw this thing on Kirby’s head?”
As soon as she finished speaking, the white bread in Alice's hand disappeared.
She patted the crumbs in her hand and stared at Greem with disdain, as if you were coming over.
Grim's mouth opened slightly in surprise.
But he quickly adjusted his mentality, picked up another piece of bread and stuffed it into Alice's hand, but this time he reached out and snapped his fingers, turning on all the protections of this magical residence.
Alice curled her lips in disdain, grabbed the bread with both hands and rubbed it slightly. After a strange space fluctuation, the bread disappeared again.
Greem's expression became more solemn.
After giving Alice the last piece of bread on the dinner plate, Grim not only activated all the protections of the magic residence, but also concentrated briefly and suddenly opened a light red barrier that could cover the entire room.
You must know that at this moment, Alice is in up to four layers of elemental protection or witchcraft barrier. If she still...
Unfortunately, Greem's mind hadn't finished spinning yet. Alice waved her hand, and a small black hole in the void appeared in front of her. Then she quickly reached into it with the hand holding the bread, and when she pulled it out, her hand
It's already empty.
And the black hole in the void quickly disappeared!
