Chapter 0145: Tsundere's Little Lori
Like the last calm before a superstorm, the atmosphere in the swamp tower was rather eerie. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.infoγγ
A small wizard family resource point, all the wizard apprentices add up to only 49 people, and 3 of them are junior apprentices who have just learned meditation.
In such a group of apprentices with low overall strength, 4 well-known quasi-witches appeared out of thin air. And if any of these 4 quasi-witches are pulled out, I am afraid that they can be regarded as outstanding in the group of quasi-witches. Such a strange situation, put it in any place, it will make people cry evil!
After all, any would-be wizard needs to consume a lot of resources to be able to appear, and to become a wizard, they need a lot of resources along with a little luck. With the current status quo of the swamp tower, it is a fluke to be able to supply one quasi-witch, let alone four in one go.
Perhaps because of the existence of these four quasi-witches, the Sarupo family has also paid more and more attention to the magic swamp. In addition to the quest hall, the Klut Secret Lodge, the Lear Comptoir, the Divins Food Society, and the Fenrir Pet Shop...... These shops and trading houses for wizard apprentices have also been stationed in the swamp tower.
And mixed in, the goblin shop opened by Goblin Kirby is also booming.
Unlike Kirby, from time to time, Kirby's goblin shop will have one or two items that can be called fine, either magic gems, or witchcraft materials, or witchcraft equipment. In short, no matter which one it is, it will trigger a crazy rush from many middle and senior apprentices.
As for the unremarkable Goblin Kirby, he also has a lofty status among the Tower Apprentices that is difficult for outsiders to achieve. If nothing else, just with the three quasi-witches standing behind it, no one in the swamp tower would dare to provoke it.
Since Alice became a member of the Tower, she thought that she would be driven by Grim to do this and that every day. Who knew that since that day, she had never seen this titular "master" again. To her surprise, this Grim turned out to be a deep house without leaving home, and every day he was either hiding in his residence to read books, or soaking in the alchemy laboratory secretly tinkering with something.
And his three meals a day are also delivered into the residence by the goblin Kirby himself, and he doesn't show up at all on weekdays. Although this made Alice less embarrassed to meet, it also made her feel a little angry about being left out.
Over the course of a few days, Alice interrogated Kirby, the goblin, and pulled out all of Grimm's actions from his mouth to the present. In addition, she also used her status as a quasi-witch to learn about Grim's early actions from several Tower apprentices.
It can be said that the more you know, the more confused Alice becomes!
If human life has its own circumstances, then Mary's life trajectory is clear at a glance.
Mary's truly worthy apprenticeship all began with that witchcraft experiment. Before becoming a vampire, her life was lackluster. After becoming a vampire, she began to soar into the sky, jumping directly from junior to advanced, and then became a quasi-witch.
So, what changed Mary's life was the weird witchcraft experiment led by Wizard Anderson!
From these messages, Alice can clearly see the development of Mary, and can also estimate the height of her life based on what she has done. Everything is so clear and intuitive!
But such a set of theories doesn't make sense for Grim!
The turning point of Grim's change is almost in the same order as Mary's. It was as if he had suddenly possessed some kind of magical power overnight. This often made Alice wonder if the wizard Anderson had done something to Grim while Mary was experimenting, otherwise the changes in his later period would have been too astonishing!
During the three-month mission, he grew from a junior apprentice to a senior apprentice, and also crossed the mediocre intermediate apprentice stage. And his trick to victory is an invincible elemental golem. As for himself, he is clearly following the path of an elemental wizard.
As for the elemental golem in Grim's hand, Alice remembers it vividly. Both of her tragic defeats were thanks to these abominable elemental golems!
Plenty of them, lots of variety, and they're powerful and targeted!
This is Alice's personal assessment of these elemental golems.
It stands to reason that such an elemental puppet, if operated in the way of elemental life summoning, not only requires special witchcraft rituals, but also requires the summoner to bear a great burden of mental power.
Alice had also noticed that every time Grim summoned an elemental golem, he needed an elemental crystal nucleus as a sorcery material, and the runes on the crystal nucleus were everywhere, looking like they had been deeply transformed. Therefore, she dared to conclude that the deep secrets that made Grim so powerful must be hidden in these crystal nuclei.
For this reason, she deliberately wanted to get closer to Grim and get more answers from him to lift the fog. It's a pity that Grim turned out to be a deep house, almost staying at home, making her titular personal maid completely useless.
So, after 7 days of forbearance, Alice snatched the plate from Kirby, the goblin, and stood at the door of Grimm's residence in his place. The only person who can freely enter and leave Grim's abode is the pesky Mary, and even the goblin Kirby needs to get Grim's permission to enter every time he delivers food.
It didn't take long for Grim to finally lift the protection on the portal after sensing Alice's mental fluctuations.
Reaching out and pushing open the door, Alice strode in with the tray.
The room was still as shabby.
It's even messier than last time!
It was daylight, but the lighting crystal on the wooden table still shone with a soft glow that was bright but not dazzling. This can't help but make Alice wonder if the other party has been busy since last night and has never rested at all?
The ground was littered with discarded parchment rolls, some rolled together, some spread out, some crumpled into a ball...... Each one depicts dense, intricate rune lines and mystical witch circles. Alice didn't have much research on witchcraft, so she felt a headache when she saw this highly specialized mystical knowledge.
Standing on tiptoe, carefully dodging the debris thrown all over the floor, Alice made her way to the wooden table.
The wooden table was also so messy, and there were witchcraft books spread out everywhere, stacked one by one, pressed one by one, almost submerging most of the tabletop. And the Grim was prostrate at the table, silently scribbling something on a piece of parchment.
But apparently he wasn't going well.
Halfway through the painting, he lifted the parchment and examined it vigorously, and quickly shook his head and cursed in a low voice, crumpling the parchment into a ball and throwing it behind him.
Alice turned her head to dodge the oncoming ball of paper, and angrily placed the plate on the wooden table. Due to her "carelessness", the pile of books stacked high finally collapsed.
Belch...... What's going on?
Grim glanced around in confusion, but his angry eyes met Alice's defiant gaze.
"Hmm, when did you get here?" Grim rubbed his temples, feeling a faint tingling in his skull.
Ever since his own strength has soared, Grim has realized the benefits of a high physique.
After 3 days and 3 nights of sleeplessness, if it were to be replaced by the past, I am afraid that he would already be tired and tired. But now, except for the tiredness caused by the huge loss of mental strength, his body is still as strong and energetic as it was three days ago.
"I'm here today to ask, what exactly are you going to do with me, just let me wander around this filthy and dilapidated place day by day, as I am now, the witchcraft facilities here are so old and backward, compared to the outside, this is simply a wild desert in the wizarding world!" Alice grumbled angrily.
It was clear that the swamp tower had had had enough of her these days.
There are no high-end witchcraft potions, no slightly normal food and drink, no high-level materials for witchcraft experiments, and the personal dwelling is like a sheepfold...... In such a backward and dilapidated place, Alice couldn't imagine how Grim survived!
If it weren't for the recent acquisitions or organizations that have brought some changes to the Swamp Tower, Alice feels like she would have been rotting in this dark and damp magical swamp.
Faced with a hard-working "subordinate" who came to ask for help, Grim showed a pleased smile on his face, and casually picked up a piece of white bread from the dinner plate and stuffed it into Alice's hand, and said with a smile: "If you want to find something to do, then you might as well let me see what you can do first." Can you throw this thing on Kirby's head?"
As soon as the words landed, the white bread in Alice's hand had already disappeared.
She patted the crumbs in her hand and glared at Grim with disdain, the gesture of letting the horse go.
Grim's mouth opened slightly in surprise.
But he quickly adjusted his mind, picked up another piece of bread and stuffed it into Alice's hand, but this time he reached out and snapped his fingers, and turned on all the protection of the magical abode.
Alice pursed her lips disdainfully, grabbed the bread with both hands and rubbed it slightly, and after a strange spatial fluctuation, the bread disappeared again.
Grim's expression became more and more solemn.
After shoving the last loaf of bread from his plate to Alice, Grim not only opened all the protections of the magical abode, but also suddenly opened a reddish barrier large enough to envelop the entire room.
You must know that at this moment, Alice is in the middle of as many as four layers of elemental protection or sorcery enchantment, if she still ......
Unfortunately, before Grim's mind could finish spinning, Alice flicked one hand, and a small void black hole appeared in front of her. Then her hand that was holding the bread quickly reached into it, and by the time she pulled it out, it was empty.
And that void black hole quickly disappeared!
