Undoubtedly, these beetles were sent by the evil worm Ntik!

Save me?

Is he asking me for help?

Swallow Mary?

Why did he reveal to me his best plan?

This series of questions was deduced by the chip, and soon formed a terrible conspiracy that chilled Grim's bones!

That evil worm Ntik was probably completely controlled by Wizard Anderson, so he couldn't help but ask his enemy for help. As for how a quasi-witch who is completely controlled by a wizard hides from the other party to retain his soul consciousness, this is probably related to his unique insect body!www.biquge.info

Although he was lucky enough to retain his self-awareness in Anderson's conspiracy, it was obvious that he was no longer able to break free from the other party's control, so he obtained Grim's intervention by revealing the other party's conspiracy.

But knowing this, what can Grim do?

Could it be that complaining to the Wizard Kogan of the Sarubo family about Wizard Anderson's audacity may result in some punishment for Wizard Anderson, but it will be difficult to fundamentally change the situation under control. If Anderson makes it clear that he is willing to relinquish control, I'm afraid the Sarubo family will be happy to take over a completely controlled family wizard.

And then, Mary still can't escape the sad fate!

Defeat and kill Anderson?

If all the 4 powerful golems that Grim envisioned are made, and then introduce Wizard Anderson into some special places, with Mary and Ntik, there is still a slight chance of killing him. But the success rate of such a plan is almost less than 12%, and Grim is not willing to take such a big risk!

In the past, when it came to the power of wizards, there was only one very vague concept in mind. But after more than half a year of experience, Grim finally has a preliminary outline in his heart.

Take, for example, Grim's original junior apprentices, who were almost physically indistinguishable from ordinary people, except that they had mastered one or two powerful sorcery, and in very small quantities. At this time, if the apprentices went out on missions, they still liked to hire some mercenaries to defend themselves against those injuries from mortals, such as crossbow arrows, throwing knives, traps, etc.

Once you advance to the intermediate level, the power of the wizard apprentice begins to gradually appear. At this time, either they have already chosen the direction of their own development, or they already have some powerful means that ordinary human beings can hardly match. Even the militia of an ordinary town would have a hard time provoking such a terrifying figure. But with the right means, the possibility of an ordinary person killing a mid-level apprentice still exists.

However, once advanced to the advanced level, such an apprentice secular army is already difficult to match. Imagine a man with the life force of a bison, the speed of a cheetah, and the strength of an adult man who can turn a secular army upside down without the aid of witchcraft. If supplemented by powerful sorcery, it is not a problem to destroy an army of one or two hundred people in a backhand.

Of course, if any human nobleman is willing to pay a huge price. With excellent ordnance and soldiers who are not afraid of death, the lives of more than 300 soldiers can be sacrificed, and if you pile up human lives, you can defeat high-level apprentices.

By the time the wizard apprentice becomes a quasi-witch, sorry, the army of ordinary minor nobles is no longer effective against it. Even if this quasi-witch is willing to fight guerrillas, some small principalities can be dragged down by it. To deal with a quasi-witch, it would take at least the lives of nearly a thousand elite warriors to do it. As for whether you can kill him, it depends on how lucky you are in battle!

Of course, the above strength estimates are all in the absence of secular forces without the assistance of mystical powers. And now in the Wizard Continent, it is impossible for any principality to survive without the protection of the wizard family. Many human kings, grand dukes and the like are all agents sent by wizarding families, or a mortal who is good at territorial management and management, or a wizard apprentice who has no hope of advancement.

In short, worldly power is always at the disposal of shamans, but never the other way around.

And if you want to deal with a wizard, you can't count on the power of the world.

The only possibility of killing a wizard is another wizard!

This wise saying has been deeply engraved in the bones of all mortals. Even those nobles who have the protection of wizard families are not willing to offend even the most inconspicuous wizard. After all, the power of wizards is extremely terrifying!

So after estimating the strength of friend and foe, Grim gave up the foolish idea of confronting Wizard Anderson head-on early.

Although wizards are dangerous and wizards are terrifying, as long as they find the right way, wizards are still very vulnerable!

Every year, a large number of wizards accidentally die from dangerous witchcraft experiments, and there are many who go deep into the wild jungle and never look back. And more of them fell in the wizarding family's foreign development wars.

Sometimes it's a territorial war between some wizarding families in the original plane, and sometimes it's a colonization conquest in the alien plane within the wizarding family. In short, if Grim and the others successfully become wizards, I am afraid they will inevitably participate in one bloody war after another.

But the idea of waiting for Wizard Anderson to kill himself is also nonsense. Based on Anderson's ability to barely move an inch in the swamp tower all year round, it can be seen that he is also a research-oriented wizard who is not very good at combat.

But even so, Grim still doesn't want to confront him head-on!

Since you don't want to confront head-on, you can only rely on strategy.

So these days, in addition to trying to improve his strength, Grim has been silently thinking about what to prepare. It's just that this time the target of the calculation is a wizard, so Grim can only think long-term. Anyway, it will take more than 3 months for that Ntik to reach the peak of quasi-witches, so there is still time left for Grim to plan and calculate.

…………

The abode of the evil worm Ntik.

It was already dim and damp, like a worm's nest, with white cocoons everywhere. Some were broken, and larvae covered in yellow slime were crawling out of them. Some of them are still in good condition, and when the runes of the witch array etched on the floor are lit up, they can reflect the dense swarm of insects inside.

In one corner of the room was a mutilated bison carcass, bearing traces of being eaten by ants. Black cow blood flowed all over the floor, accompanied by a pungent stench.

The air inside was extremely foul, filled with the foul smell of strong acid, blood, and decay. Ntik, on the other hand, seemed to be unaware of it, sitting cross-legged on the floor, unmoving. Although his body did not move, the gray cloth robe draped over his body was faintly wriggling slightly, bulging from time to time, and then disappearing into nothingness.

This also indicates that the seemingly calm inside of Ntik's body is not as calm as it seems.

Since that return from Anderson's bloodline fusion ritual, Ntik has mostly sat there like a dead man, motionless, like a dead man. But in his body, a bloody war without gunpowder smoke and no shouts has just come to an end.

The half-worm bloodline dominated by the corpse eater mother and the vampire bloodline dominated by the bloodthirsty heart have to use his body as a battlefield every day for dozens of rounds. Both sides want to devour each other and turn the other into nourishment for their own growth and growth, so in the face of this bloody war of "victory or death", no side is willing to compromise and coexist.

If the two strange bloodlines were so well fused, then the bloodline wizards would have already blossomed everywhere. And the need for so many wizards hiding in dimly damp towers, doing these mostly fruitless horrific experiments?

If the potential of the two bloodlines is not balanced, then it must be the result of one devouring the other. If the potential is balanced, it will inevitably end up being a lose-lose situation and the host's body will collapse. In short, it seems that there is some kind of key neutralizer missing in the middle of the desire for two incompatible things to coexist and co-prosper, making it difficult for the bloodline fusion experiment to get the results that the wizards want.

If this trend continues, the evil insect Ntik will inevitably end up dying.

Originally, in his body, the half-worm bloodline occupied an absolute advantage in the process of fighting against the vampire bloodline because it occupied the right time and place. But whenever the vampire's bloodline was about to fall, the wizard Anderson would summon him to the secret room on the fifth floor and inject him with a new blood source.

It was thanks to this continuous infusion of blood that the vampire blood was able to infect an important body organ, transforming Ntik's heart into a bloodthirsty heart. With the help of the Bloodthirsty Heart, the Vampire Bloodline had the upper hand in the Bloodline War for the first time. Externally, Entike's half-worm body has degenerated, and his skin has become dark red.

Ntik's head hung down, and he didn't even move when the two bloodlines fought so much that his life was dying. But in the depths of his spiritual sea, above the origin of his soul, an even more cruel and fierce war was going on.

The consciousness imprint formed by the soul blood contract is etched on the soul origin of Ntik, but it is very strange that cracks have faintly appeared around the part of the soul origin that carries the soul blood contract, and it is about to be separated from the entire soul origin.

Hiding most of his consciousness in the corpse eater mother, and evading the control of Anderson's consciousness, the evil insect Ntik barely managed to maintain his consciousness. At this time, he did not dare to let the subjective consciousness return to the soul origin. Once returned, the fact that he still had a sense of independence would be sensed by Wizard Anderson through the Soul Pact.

So now in his body, what is completely controlled by Wizard Anderson is only his split second consciousness, and his notological consciousness is peering aside, waiting for an opportunity to take back control of his body.

It was hard for him to get out of Anderson's grasp on his own, so he secretly manipulated some scorpions to ask for help from the damned enemy. It's a pity that the two consecutive distress messages were lost in the sea, and there was no response at all, so Ntik couldn't help but become agitated.
