The Wizarding Age

The Throne of Fire, the fifth floor of the Witch Tower.

In the secret laboratory.

Grimm stood in front of a small alchemy laboratory table, silently examining the dazzling shadow diamond in front of him.

This shadow diamond is no longer dark and deep as before, but has become shining and dazzling.

However, the light from it not only cannot illuminate a certain area, but makes the room that was originally full of natural light become dim and deep, with a strange feeling that a layer of gauze is covered on the light source.

The surface of the shadow diamond has been engraved with fine and dense strange patterns and lines, and the delicate and small runes are densely covered on the entire body, leaving no tiny space.

This is a masterpiece that Grimm spent a month to complete with great difficulty!

However, at this moment, this strange "semi-finished product" has been embedded in the body of the 3-meter-tall elemental magic machine. Above them, the shadow orb with the title of the dark clan's original witch weapon was floating in the air, and a large amount of shadow matter rushed out of it and was continuously injected into the elemental magic machine.

With the invasion of a large amount of shadow matter, the body of this elemental magic machine gradually began to become dark and gloomy. The edges of the originally materialized metal shell also became a little hazy and illusory, and began to transform into the direction of dark element energy.

This elemental magic machine, which was originally only level 3, can hardly help Grimm now, so in line with the idea of ​​"waste utilization and reasonable transformation", Grimm transformed the level 4 shadow diamond into a magic puppet crystal core and replaced the original element crystal core of the elemental magic machine.

In addition to the core upgrade, Grimm also spared no effort in the use of resources, urging the shadow orb to transform the metal shell of the elemental magic machine into a certain shadow metal.

If all these transformations are completed, the elemental magic machine can also be successfully promoted to a shadow steel magic machine, becoming a powerful metal puppet that can move and hide in the shadow matter at will.

Any metal magic machine in the past had an indestructible metal body and a terrifying self-weight that was astonishing. Wherever it went, there was a loud rumbling sound, just like it had its own gravity barrier!

After being transformed into a shadow steel magic machine, all shadow metals will be supported by the power of shadow. As long as there is a shadow within a radius of 50 meters, they can rely on the power of shadow to move around like a light ghost, silently.

And more importantly, although their prototypes are so huge and heavy, they can hide in a palm-sized shadow, making outsiders unable to detect it.

Therefore, the shadow steel magic machine is also a strange branch of all metal puppets that is best at assassination!

In order to cooperate with this transformation, Grimm also made the greatest adjustment to the appearance of the elemental magic machine, replacing its arms and mechanical legs with metal claws with multiple attack effects. If it is equipped with an anti-detection amulet and a magic cloak, its every move will be even more weird and unpredictable.

After checking the progress of the Shadow Steel Magic Machine's Shadow Transformation, Grimm nodded with satisfaction.

If there were no Shadow Orb, Grimm would probably need a long hundred years to complete the Shadow Steel Magic Machine's Shadow Transformation. But now, it only took half a month, and the Shadow Transformation progress has reached 63.

This also means that in another half a month, this Shadow Steel Magic Machine with a strength of up to 4th-level intermediate will be able to step onto the battlefield and fight for itself again!

A few days ago, in order to build a family residence outside the domain, Grimm consumed tens of millions of magic crystal resources in one breath, and only then did he "move" the alien brain Gazlowe and its steel city to the outskirts of the Exodar camp.

The huge amount of resources lost can simply bankrupt most wizard families!

Even the Crimson Family has been sitting on two well-developed resource planes in recent years, and the family has a small savings, which was instantly squandered by Grimm's move.

Of course, if Grimm is willing to auction off this Shadowsteel Magic Machine that is about to be completed, I am afraid that the financial black hole that just appeared in the family will be filled in half in an instant.

A machine with steel armor, but can haunt in the shadows like a ghost assassin, and can also cast most of the shadow abilities. Such a Shadowsteel Magic Machine is more than enough to fight a 4th-level dragon alone.

Moreover, in order to enhance its power, Grimm also used the memory metal newly developed by the goblins when building its new body, and added a small magic amplifier.

Therefore, in Grimm's mind, the technical parameters of this Shadowsteel Magic Machine calibrated by the chip are:

Target name: Shadowsteel Magic Machine

Target level: 4th-level intermediate

Target basic data: Strength 38 Constitution 44 Agility 46 Spirit 33

Target ability description: Possess all low- and medium-level shadow abilities, as well as most high-level shadow abilities, and can freely shuttle through shadow matter. As long as there is shadow matter within a 50-meter radius, the target's weight is zero. It has its own small shadow space and can instantly summon 3 shadow creatures to fight for it.

Maximum jump distance: 700 meters

Target magic resistance: basic elements (excellent), dark elements (excellent)

Target characteristics: construction characteristics, dark vision, magic immunity (medium and elementary), low-light vision, damage reduction

Special skills: blend into the shadow (constant), absorb light (constant), shadow self-healing (constant), multiple attacks, dark element shock wave

After comprehensive strength analysis of the chip, once this Shadow Steel Magic Machine is formed, its basic combat power can reach the 4th level intermediate. And once it is fully utilized, it can even exert the terrifying combat power of the 4th level advanced!

After all, the Shadow Steel Magic Machine is no longer a hard-hitting and hard-charging warrior like before, but has been transformed into a ghost assassin that appears and disappears.

It can be imagined that when any 4th level wizard fights with Grimm, a 4th level intermediate steel assassin suddenly runs out from the shadow behind him, and anyone will be caught off guard and suffer a big loss.

After dealing with the relevant matters of the Shadow Steel Magic Machine, Grimm left the alchemy laboratory and came to another witchcraft secret room.

The furnishings here are extremely simple.

A stone table, a stone chair, and a heavy book lying quietly on the stone table.

But the protection here seems to be extremely strict.

Strange runes with complex and delicate patterns can be seen everywhere on the surrounding walls, floors, and ceilings. Together, they form a small space that is almost self-contained, separating this secret room from the rest of the witch tower.

In this way, anything that happens in the secret room cannot be detected through divination or prophecy-like witchcraft!

This is the witchcraft secret room that Alice built for Grimm, and it is also the "prison" used to place this Wisdom Book.

There is no way. Although the Shadow Orb is also a 5th-level holy object, it does not belong to anyone.

Therefore, it only needs to simply apply a fate protection to prevent the dark witches from sensing it.

But the Wisdom Book is different. It is a 5th-level artifact with a clear owner!

Under the support of the endless divine power of the God of Wisdom, Jero, if there is no way to isolate the soul connection between the artifact and the owner behind it, I am afraid that Grimm can only hold it in his hand all the time to prevent it from breaking through the air and escaping.

Therefore, Grimm can only ask Alice to create such a small space field that is almost isolated from the outside world, which makes the Wisdom Book "quiet".

With a bang of flames, Grimm's tall figure emerged in a corner of the secret room.

This secret room has been isolated from the outside world. There is no direct access at all. It can only be transmitted through fixed space beacons. The space beacons here are only controlled by Grimm alone, and even Alice and Mary don't know anything about it.

This will eliminate any possibility of information leakage!

After entering the secret room, Grimm coughed violently for a long time, then carefully sat down at the stone table and gently opened the book of wisdom.

"God is omnipotent!"

As far as the eye can see, there is only such a simple sentence in the huge page!

God is omnipotent... Humph, if the gods are really so powerful, how can there be evil and filth in the world? Humph, playing tricks...

While despising him in his heart, Grimm wanted to turn to the second page.

But no matter how he rubbed it, the remaining pages seemed to be stuck together and could not be opened at all.

"Damn it, what's going on? Could it be that the artifact I snatched back with great difficulty is still incomplete? Chip, help me analyze it quickly..." Grimm tried several times but failed, so he could only close the door and put the chip away.

"Ding, the existence of a heterogeneous faith energy aggregate was detected... After testing, if you want to unlock this faith energy, you must either become its resonance body or proceed step by step according to the settings of the faith energy..."

"Become its resonance body? What does this mean?"

"It means becoming a devout believer of this God of Wisdom. As long as the subject's mental fluctuations are in sync with the faith energy fluctuations of this God of Wisdom, you can read the subsequent contents of this Wisdom Book without any obstacles!"

"Damn it, are you trying to persuade me to change my faith? We wizards don't believe in any gods, we only believe in ourselves!"

"Self-worship is also an alternative belief! If the subject is not ready to change his faith, you can refer to the book "Gulliver's Self-Hypnosis"..."

Grimm immediately showed an extremely embarrassed smile on his face.

Gulliver is also a wizard, calling himself a trickster, and he likes to study the magic of the gods very much.

He found that the believers of the gods did not need to conduct too much advanced extraordinary research, and they could perform terrible high-level magic under the favor of the gods. In this regard, the growth of the believers of the gods is much easier than that of wizards, and there is not such a big risk.

Because he knew how to obtain these unearned powers, Gulliver was ingenious and developed a kind of self-hypnosis. It can make himself disguised as a devout believer of a great god for a short time, so as to cheat some blessed magic from the gods.

If he only deceives one god, then the blessed magic obtained every day is limited after all.

But this Gulliver is also a genius. With the powerful ability of the trickster, he can deceive as many as a dozen gods at the same time.

In this way, his own witchcraft ability plus these free magics actually made him famous and became a hot wizard genius at the time. And the book "Gulliver's Self-Hypnosis" written by him has also become one of the interesting books that most high-level wizards must read!
