Put the dilapidated wooden puppet on the small alchemy table, and the remaining work is to conduct a comprehensive and detailed dissection.
Since it is difficult to decipher the secret hidden in the puppet stone from the front, Greem can only change the angle. Starting from the traces left by the white smoke that the puppet stone turned into, let’s take a look at the birth of the wooden puppet after the primary intelligence turned into Billy.
What kind of magical changes happened in the pile of "garbage".
If the simple body of the wooden puppet is regarded as a piece of computer hardware, then the white smoke is a software operating system that integrates all resources. The only thing Greem is curious about is whether these white smoke with rudimentary intelligence are a kind of witchcraft effect.
, or the biological soul that has been cleaned and processed by memory!
Yes, Greem had high suspicions when he conducted the first Puppet Stone test. The white smoke was probably the soul fragments extracted from some intelligent creatures by the Silver Alliance. And to achieve such a level of intelligence, I am afraid that only those species can
Only humans can do it.
For example, the indigenous ‘human beings’ from the secondary plane…
The price of a low-level puppet stone within the Silver Alliance is 15 magic crystals. As for some underground black markets, it may have reached 40 magic crystals. And Greem made an estimate, considering that the soul strength of indigenous humans is slightly weaker than that of wizards.
Ordinary people in the world, so a low-level puppet stone may need to extract the souls of 3-5 indigenous humans to successfully create it.
These indigenous humans are not valuable in the secondary plane. It is common for one magic crystal to buy thousands of ordinary slaves.
But it is a pity that only those slaves with strange abilities and special talents are worthy of being brought back to the Wizarding World. Otherwise, their value is not worth the basic cost of inter-dimensional ultra-long-distance transmission. Therefore, they are almost rarely seen in the Wizarding World.
To the war slaves from another dimension.
But just because there are few does not mean there are none.
Those master builders and blacksmiths of the dwarves, gourmets among the halflings, handsome men and beauties from the elves, elves from the goblin world, and the five-color dragon that is most suitable as a flying familiar...even in the wizard towers of many powerful wizards.
, and also raises some 'slaves' such as succubi, lust demons, and dark elves from the lower planes.
These top-quality 'slaves' are hot 'commodities' even in the wizarding world. If the secondary plane occupied by a certain wizard family can discover these racial creatures with special abilities, they can make a lot of money just by selling slaves.
But for those secondary planes, the largest number are indigenous creatures with no special skills. These ordinary creatures are worthless at all. If they are sold to the wizarding world, the magic crystals they sell may not be enough to cover the travel expenses. So.
The usual approach is to force them to mine and create as much benefit for the wizard family as possible.
If the Silver Alliance can establish a puppet stone manufacturing factory directly inside the secondary plane and convert the huge population resources of the alien plane into alchemical creations that are easy to transport and have higher added value, then the Silver Alliance will definitely be able to usurp them.
Ten times, or even a hundred times the income.
After all, in the wizarding world, large-scale killing of living beings is strictly prohibited. Only in unsupervised secondary planes can it be possible to do such inhumane things!
Relying on the chip's super data scanning and analysis capabilities, Greem finally discovered signs of soul invasion in the wooden puppet's body. This also confirmed his previous guesses from the side.
The Silver Alliance has been doing cruel and bloody things in the secondary plane it occupies!
However, Greem had no intention of making any accusations about this.
After all, all wizard families are doing similar things, but to varying degrees!
Perhaps it is precisely because of these factors that the wizarding world is classified as an evil camp, and wizards have naturally become evil creatures that the world is afraid of.
He has thoroughly studied the composition and operating mechanism of the Puppet Stone, but it is still not of much help to Greem. After all, the Puppet Stone is only an auxiliary, and its greatest effect is actually to store the soul white smoke in it. As for soul science, Greem has not studied it at all.
Not much. So he still couldn't understand how those arcane wizards completed the series of tasks of extracting, refining, cleaning, and infusing and storing souls.
It seems that only those necromancers who specialize in soul science are better at these tasks!
Is it possible that the Silver Alliance hired a large number of necromancers to work for them? Or did they invent some kind of machine that can complete such complex and delicate work?
There are too many possibilities. Perhaps only by sneaking into the Silver Alliance's puppet stone manufacturing factories in the secondary plane can we obtain completely true first-hand information.
However, major organizations have always sealed the secondary planes under their control extremely tightly. Without joining their family or signing a soul contract, how difficult it would be to sneak into it!
This can be known from the Sarupo family's control of the knight plane.
No matter how you say it, Greem is already regarded as the internal wizard of the Sarupo family, and he also made great achievements in the process of conquering the knight plane. But once he chooses to withdraw from the knight plane, then the coordinates of the plane where the knight plane is located
It was "taken back".
In Greem's mind, even with the aid of a chip, he could never recall the location of the Knight Plane. In this way, the Sarupo family did not have to worry about the coordinates of the secondary plane in which they had huge interests being leaked.
In the last battle in the Dark Forest, Greem killed two wizards and found some valuable witchcraft notes and books from them. By scanning, summarizing and organizing the contents, Greem once again confirmed
own future development path.
He has already elementalized his body, but this is only a semi-elementary transformation after all. If Greem wants to successfully attack the second-level wizard, then the spiritual elementalization is a preparation that he must complete.
The chip's assessment of this matter is that Greem can only complete the spiritual elementalization after nearly a hundred years of precipitation. And this long process must also rely on certain special environments in nature, such as lava volcanoes...
Therefore, during this period of time, Greem has been constantly flipping through the map of the Sand Tallinn area, looking for a suitable place for his seclusion. But before that, he still needs to take care of Alice's affairs.
After all, Alice's destiny witch talent is also an ability that he values very much. If it can succeed, Alice will also occupy a very important position in his life plan in the future!
…………
After leaving the laboratory, Greem received a witchcraft message from the wizard Korgan.
All the resources prepared for Alice's promotion to wizard have been allocated in place. As long as Alice is ready, the promotion ceremony can be held at any time. And of course all of this needs to be paid for by Grim!
It didn't take long before someone knocked on the door of the residence.
Greem opened the door and found that the person who came was Maguta, a male quasi-witch under Wizard Korgan.
Behind him were a group of ordinary apprentices, carrying large and small wooden boxes in their hands.
"Lord Greem, these are the advancement resources that Lord Korgan ordered me to send you. Please check them!"
Holding the long list of resources, Greem felt that his eyes were getting wet.
Destiny, it's so fucked up!
Back then, his promotion was extremely difficult, and if he was just a little bit unlucky, he might become the target of someone else's blood sacrifice. But now, Alice only needs to stay in the room, eat and drink well, and keep her body healthy and fat.
Everything else was taken care of by Grim, the 'master'.
This is probably the difference in fate!
After secretly sighing in his heart, Greem stabilized his mind, carefully and carefully counted the resource list and items, and then successfully signed the confirmation and sent everyone away.
With just such a big stroke, the witchcraft mark was stamped on it, and Greem's net worth shrank instantly. 13. Who made Alice's immortal property belong to his personal 'property', so the Salubo family has no obligation to do it for him
Bear this expensive promotion fee.
Besides, even if Wizard Korgan wanted to bear the cost of advancement for Alice, Greem would not agree.
Alice must first be his 'person', and secondly, she can belong to the ranks of the Salupo family wizards.
Greem must insist on this at all times!
At this time, the apprentices belonging to Greem's line also heard about it and came over.
They arrived just in time, and Greem handed over the post-processing work of these resources to them.
Salo fruit is a special fruit produced in wild forests. After being processed and eaten, it can enhance the physical vitality of living individuals in a short period of time without any sequelae.
Protozoa, a kind of strange insect cultivated by witchcraft. If eaten before advancement, it can significantly improve mental toughness and is also a rare auxiliary resource for advancement.
The stench potion is a witchcraft potion that uses the method of burning life potential to enhance spiritual power.
The water of life is a rare thing from the elves from another world. It can replenish the vitality that has been severely depleted after the promotion ceremony.
…
…
The resources sent by the Sarupo family are everywhere, and each one is a very targeted and precious resource, which is of great assistance to the advanced wizard.
However, these resources are sealed in special witch formations to avoid the loss of their effectiveness. Therefore, if you want to use them, you can only temporarily unblock them and then process them according to fixed procedures.
Greem handed over these complicated tasks to his apprentices.
And he wholeheartedly began to calculate Alice's promotion ceremony!
After summarizing all aspects of intelligence and information, and taking into account the effects of various auxiliary resources, the promotion success rate projected by the chip in his mind was 6771.
Even if Alice has extraordinary talents that are difficult for outsiders to match, even if Alice has so many precious resources, even if Alice has the blessing of the aura of the Witch of Destiny... But when all these are added up, her chance of success in promotion is barely more than half.
From this we can see how difficult it is to successfully advance from a quasi-witch to a wizard in the wizarding world!
When everything was ready, Alice also adjusted her mentality and spirit, and prepared to enter the secret room with the resources and ritual items prepared by Greem for her.
In order to prevent others from noticing the abnormality on her body, Alice had to put on a robe to cover up half of her body that had lost its physical form.
At the door, she accepted the blessings of Kodar, Meryl, Am, Tore and Lina.
"Senior Sister, you will definitely succeed!" Kedar, as one of the two quasi-witches under Grimm, was the first to step forward to express his blessing.
"You will definitely become a beautiful witch!" Meryl whispered in Alice's ear.
The promotion of a quasi-witch to a wizard is a sublimation of the essence of life. Taking this opportunity, Alice also has the opportunity to break through the seal of fate and free herself from the state where her body was forever sealed at the moment of her awakening at the age of eight.
"Sister, I will call you Lord Wizard next time we meet..." Amn grinned stupidly.
"I have confidence in you..." Tolle shouted from the side.
"We must succeed!" Linna's eyes cast an envious, fiery look.
Following behind was the gnome Kirby who arrived in a hurry.
This guy actually brought Alice a wooden sculpture that resembled a female goblin, and insisted that it was a lucky gift from the goblin family.
After all, advancement is a big deal, and any unknown items that may affect the ceremony cannot be brought in, so the wood carving was confiscated directly by Grim.
Alice stood at the door and looked around, then her eyes fell on Grim.
"I'm waiting for you!" Greem's blessing was simple and direct.
Alice nodded, turned around and walked into the secret room firmly.
