The Wizarding Age

No one knows what happened in the depths of the volcano.

However, it is something that everyone has seen. So, Grimm mixed in with the resentful foreign apprentices, and after completing the task, he secretly left the town of Pamela.

When Grimm successfully returned to the magic swamp as a quasi-witch, the entire tower was shaken.

Once upon a time, the name Grimm was so unknown among the apprentices in the tower that many people did not realize his existence. But now with his strong rise, some strong people who could only look up to him in the past have now been left behind by him and have become the most sad group of people.

Just when some people were still questioning the authenticity of the news, the wizard Korgan, who represented the Salupo family, came to the swamp tower again and summoned Grimm on the 5th floor. As expected, Grimm's choice was exactly the same as Mary's. They both chose to serve the Salupo family for 10 years in exchange for the necessary resources for promotion.

Of course, if Grimm is sure to get all the resources needed for the formal wizard ceremony, then he can leave the Salubo family now and choose to become a wanderer. However, with the current development trend of Sanditalin, it generally adopts a more hostile and repressive policy towards wandering wizards and apprentices who do not belong to a family, so if Grimm wants to successfully pass the apprenticeship period, he still has to join a wizard family.

As for the Byron family chest emblem that Grimm obtained in the dark crypt, it only represents that the Byron family is willing to shelter him in the Dagon area, and there is no formal witchcraft contract to join the Byron family.

After meeting Wizard Korgan, Grimm was captured by Mary who came back after hearing the news and returned to his residence.

"Tell me, what did you do during this mission? How could you suddenly advance to a quasi-witch?" Based on Mary's understanding of Grimm, this guy has never been able to complete the task smoothly, and every time he makes a big mistake halfway.

Grimm just smiled and said nothing, but when he stretched out his hand and wiped it on the table, there were five dark red mysterious crystals, one large and four small.

"What is this?" Mary curiously stretched out her hand to the largest one, but the moment her hand touched the mysterious crystal, she suddenly retracted it.

With a slight sizzle, a cluster of flames ignited on the mysterious crystal, burning her fingers fiercely.

Even with Mary's vampire physique, the few fingers that touched the crystal became charred. But she didn't care about it. She shook her slender hand lightly, and as the scorch marks faded, her fingers became smooth and white again.

Mary didn't act rashly, but concentrated on thinking about it.

The previous move was not driven by an outsider, nor was it the effect of some kind of witch formation, but the spontaneous protective instinct of this crystal. It was as if... as if it also had consciousness!

"What is this?" Mary asked again, and looked at Grimm with a bad face, revealing a pair of sharp canine teeth, ready to bite if they disagreed.

"Level 2 crystal core!" Grimm showed a strange smile on his face, and said word by word.

Mary's beautiful red lips murmured and repeated several times, and then she suddenly realized: "Level 2 crystal core? Did you kill a level 2 monster? Where is the body? Has the blood been extracted? Hurry... Tell me quickly!"

"Uh..." Grimm spread his hands and said speechlessly: "If I really encounter a level 2 monster, do you think I can come back alive?"

"That's right!" Mary smiled embarrassedly, and was a little surprised by her own gaffe.

Who told her that she was in the most important transition period in the life of a vampire, and who told her that the fastest way to improve her strength was to suck the blood of the strong. These two things combined were enough to make Mary neurotic. When she heard the news of a powerful creature, she couldn't help but become restless and fanatical!

Of course, in Mary's eyes, Grimm can barely be included in the ranks of the strong. However, no matter how much Mary said, Grimm would not let her suck his blood. Because according to the chip's inductive analysis, any individual whose blood has been sucked by a vampire will have varying degrees of damage to their own strength.

And these damages are likely to be the key to the vampire's ability to suck blood and evolve!

To put it simply, if Grimm allows Mary to suck his blood, he is likely to lose attributes, and the two attributes he values ​​most are physical and mental. In this regard, the apprentice of the Toril bloodline in the dark crypt is the most typical example.

Originally, that guy had reached the peak of his apprentice level and was about to hold a wizard promotion ceremony, but he was defeated by Grimm's magic puppet combination. And such an injury would take him at most a week or two to recover. However, the information fed back from the other family showed that the Toril quasi-witch's mental power had declined. Although it did not fall below 20 points, it was enough to affect his normal promotion.

Therefore, based on many blood examples, Grimm had reason to suspect that vampires could extract blood factors from the blood itself by sucking blood, thereby strengthening themselves and weakening the enemy. Imagine, in this case, how dare Grimm let Mary suck his blood!

After exchanging information, Mary rushed into the mission hall again to find an apprentice mission suitable for herself. Grimm returned to his residence and began to listen to the work report of the goblin merchant Kirby.

During the nearly three months since Grimm left, the Swamp Tower has become active with the infusion of external information and resources, and is no longer as dead as before. With Mary's support, Kirby opened the first goblin shop in the tower.

There are not many products to choose from in the shop, but each one is a rare resource that is difficult to find in the outside world. In addition, Kirby has recently set his sights on the group of middle and low-level apprentices and started to buy the witchcraft materials and ordinary resources that they do not need temporarily at a low price.

However, if such a small shop wants to operate completely, it needs a constant supply of high-end goods, otherwise it will be difficult to attract apprentices.

After listening to Kirby's report, Grimm nodded with satisfaction and casually released a large number of magic gems and materials from his storage belt, mainly underground fire diamonds. After all, compared with those apprentices who wander around the periphery of the volcanic world to search for treasures all day long, Grimm has gone deep into the lava sea countless times, and the probability of encountering high-level magic gems there is much greater than theirs.

Most of the fire diamonds and magic gems on the periphery were also splashed out from the lava sea when the volcano was active. After being captured and screened by flame creatures, the quality of the diamonds could not be too good. The fire diamonds that Grimm brought back from the lava sea were fist-sized top-grade fire diamonds. There was even a giant fire diamond with a human head that Grimm threw to Kirby, asking him to find someone to carve it into the shape of a jade pillow.

In this way, Grimm will be able to meditate with it in the future, and the effect will definitely be better!

After Kirby happily left with the waist bag, the smile on Grimm's face gradually faded, and he began to seriously think about an extremely important piece of information.

In the three months since Grimm left, the Anderson wizard actually publicly announced that he would accept the evil worm Entic as his disciple. And according to Kirby, during this period of time, the evil worm Entic has been soaking in the 5th floor of the wizard tower almost every day, and no one knows what he is doing there with the Anderson wizard!

Faced with the two enemies that might merge, Grimm's joy of advancing to the quasi-wizard level just vanished, and he felt the sense of urgency again. After advancing to the quasi-wizard level, with the protection of the family contract, Anderson wizard may not dare to do anything to him openly, but it is possible for him to do something secretly.

He is so close to the evil insect Entic, is he trying to use him to deal with him?

Grimm smiled bitterly.

Since he thoroughly understood the conflict of interests between Anderson wizard and Mary, he knew that he would sooner or later cause Anderson wizard's disgust. But he didn't expect that the enemy's actions were so fast and so urgent!

In the eyes of these insidious and cunning wizards, all apprentices are just a group of walking materials. If it weren't for the wizards' top leaders restraining their behavior, I'm afraid this group of selfish guys would not tolerate the emergence of new wizards to compete with them for the already scarce resources.

However, no matter how the enemy planned, as long as the speed of his progress always exceeded their expectations, any dangers and traps would disappear, and it would be difficult to shake his direction of progress.

After analyzing all this, Grimm immediately made a long work plan for himself in the following period. Under his arrangement, I am afraid that in the next six months, his daily time will be full and it will be difficult to find any free time.

In this mysterious alien world, in order to save his life, Grimm also put all his energy and time into the study and research of witchcraft.

…………

The room of the goblin Kirby.

As soon as he came back from his master's residence, Kirby fell into infinite enthusiasm!

Every time he took out a magic gem from his bulging waist bag, he would dance with joy, kiss and rub it repeatedly, and then take out the detection wand to check the properties and quality of the gem.

Looking at the gems piled higher and higher in front of him, Kirby felt so happy. At this moment, he wanted to run to his master again and kiss the tip of his master's shoes passionately. Perhaps only in this way can the master truly experience Kirby's enthusiasm and loyalty!

However, in this pleasant process, there was a small setback.

Kirby found a mysterious white stone the size of a fist in the pile of gems thrown by the master. And no matter what method it uses to detect, it cannot detect its properties, nor can it confirm what kind of magic gem or material or monster egg it is!

Even after the detection of the magic wand, the feedback in the mind is just a simple information such as "unknown items in the other world". Since the magic wand says it is an item rather than a creature, it means that it is not a monster egg. And since the owner put it in the pile of gems, it must be worth a lot of money.

Goblin Kirby is most concerned about the "other world" prompted in the information.

Is this a mysterious gem from another plane?

Kirby scratched his head and could only throw the mysterious white stone on the table and turn around to deal with other gems. chapter;
