"My lord, the wizard seems to recognize me. You see......"

Billis, the worm witch, licked his lips and looked.

"Keep an eye on him. If it's just to report the information, if there's any other intention, I don't mind bloodbathing this route......" Grim said resolutely, looking around at the surrounding scenery.

"Got it! leave it to me......"

Billis, the Worm Witch, sneered, and the worm's body shrirked lightly under the black robe. A torso the size of a tail finger fell to the ground, splitting into countless tiny black beetles, silently surging down the floor in all directions.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the entire float was monitored in great detail.

In particular, Ralph, the wizard of the 2nd Order Association who was in charge of controlling the floatship, was attached to the soles of his shoes by a group of black insects, and became the focus of the surveillance and review of the swarm, but he didn't know it.

In the middle of the night, the floatship flies above the thick clouds, and below it is the vast expanse of the Black Forest.

A faint layer of invisibility enveloped the outer perimeter of the floatship, erasing its traces.

With this layer of invisible enchantment, most of the monsters with low intelligence will not be able to detect the existence of the floatboat, which ensures the safety of navigation. As for those who can detect the existence of the floatship through the faint witchcraft fluctuations, they have been frightened by the wizards of the association, and naturally they do not dare to easily loot the vehicles with the association's logo.

At night, all onboard wizards are forbidden to use any sorcery in order to maintain the secrecy of the floatboat. So when they were bored, they either went out onto the flight deck to admire the Black Forest at night, or they hid in their homes to do some research or meditate.

At the bottom of the cabin, in a well-guarded room, the Ralph sat at a wooden table, communicating with someone at headquarters through a diamond-shaped strange crystal.

“…… Are you sure it's the legendary fire witch?" was an elderly wizard on the other side of the crystal, who was frowning as he listened to Ralph's story, and finally couldn't help but interject.

"This ...... Not sure!, but it's very likely......"

"Why do you judge that?"

"Because it has been determined that one of the two black robes is that Worm Witch Billis, and he can also be regarded as one of the core combat forces in the Crimson Family over the years. But as far as I can see, the worm witch seems to have a special respect for the other person, and shows the posture of the other party at every turn. That's why I speculate that the other person is most likely the Crimson Patriarch Grim......"

"Well, according to you, there's a real chance that the other one is Grim. At least he seems to be the only one in the Crimson family who meets these qualities. When will you reach the end of this flight?"

"...... in 37 days"

"Got it, then keep watching...... Forget it, you don't have to do anything, and don't pay special attention to these two people, I'll arrange it at my discretion. Be careful, don't anger these guys, there is no one who is good at Rank 4 wizards!"

"Yes, my subordinates understand. ”

And how did Ralph know, just as he was hiding in the room protected by multiple witches and secretly communicating with the distance, a dozen tiny black dots on the floor under his feet that were indistinguishable to the naked eye were silently monitoring his every move.

A simple cabin on the second floor of the ship.

Billis, the worm witch, was sitting cross-legged on the empty wooden bed, his body under the black robe swelling and squirming from time to time, looking extremely frightening.

On the hideous insect head that he was exposed, the many compound eyes around the insect pupil were flickering alternately, and the number of strange pictures was faintly reflected in it. Some are quietly moving around the cabin, some are chatting on the deck, and many more are browsing books or meditating......

You know, most shamans have a perverted fear for their safety, so it's not a completely safe place, and they will never go into deep meditation.

And the swarm of insects scattered by Billis, the insect witch, was able to hide from the monitoring witch array on the float boat, and was able to hide the vigilance witch array that these wizards had placed in the cabin of the ship, and sneak so close to monitor their every move. This also means that the life and death of the other party are actually in his hands.

With Bilis's methods, it would have been easy to kill any of them. Even more elaborately, Bilis was able to set up their deaths as an accidental witchcraft experiment to make no one else see any flaws.

This sense of domination in which the enemy lives and dies and the situation is under control is what Biliss is most obsessed with!

However, no matter how arrogant he was, there was still an area on the ship that he would never dare to approach easily.

That's the room where Grim, the owner of the Crimson family, rests.

Maybe the rest of the wizards on the float were too low-level to feel the almost explosive terrifying energy radiation in Grim's body. In their eyes, Grim was just a somewhat withdrawn and quieter Tier 1 wizard.

But in Billis's eyes, Grim is simply a moving volcano, and it is a terrifying volcano that has been suppressed for thousands of years and is brewing a shocking explosion. And the cabin he was living in was filled with terrifying flame energy that even Biliss had a little scalp tingling.

Every time he commanded the swarm to crawl around on the floatboat, Bilis tried to stay away from Grim's room. He was genuinely frightened, fearing that the proximity of the swarm would trigger the silent volcano.

If this terrifying force erupts, I'm afraid that this floating boat and the wizard on it will be completely vaporized by the terrifying flames in an instant, and even a bit of bone residue will not be found.

And in the cabin where Grim was staying, he finally opened his eyes leisurely.

The Fire Coral Staff standing in front of him had burned red, and the intense heat had even distorted the surrounding void, making the scene in the room insincerely weird.

An illusory chain of fire was built between the Vulcan Orb at the head of the staff and Grim's Heart of Rules, and streams of pure flame energy like hot magma flowed back and forth between the chains of fire. With each run, it seems that the energy itself undergoes some strange changes.

The color has also changed from red to white, and gradually changed to golden yellow.

And this color change also means that the level of flame energy continues to increase.

Ever since he saw the Flame Lord in the depths of the Sea of Ashes, Grim has a general direction about the energy forms of high-level creatures. Now, if he wants to continue to improve himself, on the one hand, he needs to constantly deepen his understanding of flames, and on the other hand, he also needs to improve his spiritual power crazily.

Without extremely high spiritual power, don't even think about controlling those violent and dangerous fire elements in a small and subtle way, and without extremely high spiritual power, don't want to compress and purify the unruly fire elementals......

When his own level is still very low, Grim's understanding of the fire element is to regard it as an elemental particle that can be manipulated and kneaded at will. However, as his understanding of the flame deepened and his mental acuity improved, he felt the character of the flame more and more......

Yes, the flame also has its own character!

Just as the water element is gentle and gentle, the wind element is unruly, and the earth element is sluggish and solid, the fire element that Grim desperately wants to master is so enthusiastic and unrestrained. Depending on their elemental properties, everything becomes very simple. But against their elemental properties, the caster will find them so difficult to get along with.

The power of the flame lies in its ferocity, its destruction......

Such flamboyant and wild elements fell into the hands of a lukewarm sorcerer, and naturally they could not exert their full power. Only those who have a tyrannical temperament and never care about the consequences can use the power of fire sorcery to the extreme.

In contrast, Grim was too restrictive in his own nature in past battles, and relied too much on the assistance of chips.

Although this has improved his safety a lot, it has also hindered the deep integration of his body and mind with the fire element.

Especially at the 4th level, every time he took a step forward, Grim could feel the resistance and restlessness from the fire element. And the delay in taming the fire element also made Grim's own perception of fire a little sluggish.

However, having figured this out, Grim did not regret it!

A flame that can be controlled in your own hands is a good flame. If one has to sacrifice some of his sanity in order to increase his affinity with the flames, then Grim would rather be shut out by the fire elemental.

But that doesn't mean Grim is going to give up on the flames.

Since he couldn't let go of his body and mind to accept the transformation of the fire element, and couldn't pin his safety on the fury and ferocity of the fire element, then Grim could only find another way to use other methods and means to improve the level of his fire energy.

My own perception of flame is not enough, and I can't continue to compress and purify flame energy, so I will find a substitute. And Grim's choice is: the Vulcan Bead!

Grim set up a fire chain between the Heart of Rules and the Vulcan Bead, sent the fire energy condensed in his body into the Vulcan Orb, and continuously compressed and purified it with the help of its power. Then the compressed and purified strange flame is transmitted back to the heart of rules, and the heart of rules is strengthened by radiating the power of the strange laws impregnated inside......

Limited to Grim's current spiritual power, as well as the tolerance of the heart of rules, such a radiation transformation can only be gradual and slow, and the time is very long and arduous.

Therefore, in the strange perception of Billis, the worm witch, he will find that there is an extremely terrifying fire energy in Grim's room all the time. Its strength, its intensity, and its strength level have clearly surpassed Grim's current rank!

And this made Biliss even more surprised and shocked, and from the depths of his heart there was a state of unrivaled surrender......
