Essentia ......

Grim silently recited the name in his heart, and although he didn't speak, his shining eyes betrayed his heart.

Essentia, of course he knew.

This is an extremely rare object, and it is also a top-level resource exclusive to Tier 4 wizards.

Specifically, essentia is a kind of strange resource born from the combination of dimensional laws and certain substances under special circumstances.

In the ordinary world, the origin of the plane hides behind the world structure and the laws of the plane, and is part of the rules of the world that are constantly in flux, and it is impossible to capture it.

Only when the plane world has suffered a huge blow and it is difficult to maintain its own integrity and stability, so that the boundary membrane is broken and the void storm invades the interior of the plane, a part of the plane origin will escape due to the fragmentation of the law system. And one of the main reasons why those star beasts like to invade the plane world so much is that they want to devour these 'sweet and delicious' plane origins.

Star beasts can break the plane balance by tearing through the plane barriers, thus devouring those plane origins that have been freed.

And this is also an inevitable process for the growth and growth of star beasts!

Therefore, it is not without reason that the star beast is called the enemy of the plane and the enemy of all beings.

One of the main reasons why the number of ancient wizards in the past who were able to cross the rule level was extremely rare was that the ethereal nature of the laws of the plane was unpredictable, and they could only rely on amazing talent and luck to spend a lot of time slowly understanding it little by little.

And this process is the most difficult to grasp!

Even if you are amazingly talented and have excellent combat power, once you are stuck in the realization of the laws of the plane, the most likely outcome is that you will make no progress after hundreds of years, and eventually end up with hatred after running out of life.

In the hundreds of thousands of years in the wizarding world, I don't know how many Heavenly Talents and Wizards have been stuck at the peak of the 4th order like this, because they have been unable to grasp the power of the rules and have become short-lived meteors.

Most of the wizards are gifted and intelligent, and in order to solve this huge problem, they racked their brains and exhausted their means. Finally, in some broken dimensional worlds, the brave wizard accidentally discovered the strange resource of essentia, and then analyzed the mechanism of its formation.

Since then, those powerful wizards have also begun to consciously destroy some dimensional worlds, thus artificially inducing the birth of Prima. And the appearance of a large amount of essentia also made it far easier for wizards to understand the laws of the plane than that of ancient wizards.

And this eventually led to the number of great wizards more than ten times more than in ancient times.

However, destroying a formed plane world and indirectly killing tens of billions of plane creatures inside is nothing more than some essentia. As many of these evils are done, the wizard community will gradually be disgusted and hated by other races.

In the classics of many dimensional worlds, wizards are classified as evil camps along with the demons of the abyss world and the scourge lords of the calamity world. This is also directly related to the fact that wherever wizards go, they often carry out large-scale blood sacrifices or concoct essentia.

It is only in recent years that with the continuous emergence of great wizards, in order to improve the external image of the wizard camp, it has been forced to prohibit the act of deliberately destroying the dimensional world to collect essentia. This has also led to a sharp shrinkage of essentia resources in recent thousands of years.

In the wizarding world, no matter what type of essentia is classified as a Tier 4 item, it is staggeringly expensive.

And it is precisely because of the rarity of essentia that they have become the top resources that fourth-order wizards have to compete with each other, and it is impossible for idle third-order wizards to obtain a single cent.

Therefore, for this Fried wizard suddenly mentioned essentia, Grim's heart couldn't help but pound, and there was a vague strange feeling.

"It seems that you already know the essentia, so I won't go into the details of its function. Wizard Fried had a sly smile on his face, "So, Lord Grim, I wonder if you want to get some essentia?"

"Lord Fried, if you have anything to say, please say it directly! as long as I can do it, I will definitely not refuse!"

"Okay...... good" Hearing Grim's answer, Wizard Fried's face immediately burst into smiles: "In the past hundreds of years, it has been a long time since there have been some new fourth-order wizard faces in our scattered Tallinn. Therefore, the association is ready to gather the most popular third-order wizards in the middle of the continent to compete fairly, and then select a winner!"

Speaking of this, Wizard Fred paused for a moment, then squinted his eyes and continued: "And the reward for the winner is to join the association, enjoy the benefits of a fourth-order wizard, and receive 500 Sith essentia. ”

Grim's heartbeat froze, and it took a long time for it to start beating again.

Sith is a unit of measurement for essentia.

Due to the particularity of essentia, there is no weight, no volume, and it can be attached to any substance. Therefore, it can only be absorbed by the crystallization of no attributes, so as to ensure that its law attributes are not 'polluted' by the dimensional matter.

In high-level wizard auctions and private transactions, essentia has always been in high demand.

However, most of the things that can be auctioned and traded are inferior essentia contaminated by dimensional matter, and the law attributes inside have been eroded and filthy by the ubiquitous magical elements. And the true superior essentia has never existed only in the private treasures of high-level wizards, and it is not revealed, and it will never appear in public.

And the essentia that Wizard Fried is talking about in front of him must be referring to those superior essentia!

According to Grim's understanding, the essentia of 500 Sith is actually not much.

According to the statistics of the past data of the wizarding world, if a fourth-order wizard wants to comprehend and master the rules of the world with essentia, the amount of essentia consumed is affected by the individual's aptitude and talent. Those with strong talent potential may have 7,000 Sith essentia enough, while those with inferior talent may need to consume 20,000 to 50,000 Sith essentia.

And the wizards forcibly destroy a small plane, and the total amount of essentia that can be obtained is only 100,000 Sith!

Therefore, if you want to cultivate a great wizard who has crossed the 4th order, the cost of resources required is simply amazingly high, and it is not at all something that ordinary wizard families can afford.

500 Sith essentia may not be enough for a 4th order wizard to be promoted to 5th order, but for a 3rd order wizard who has reached the peak state, it is enough for them to successfully cross the threshold and become a hot 4th order powerhouse!

With Grim's confidence in himself, even without these essentia, he was confident that he would be able to successfully advance to the 4th rank within one or two hundred years. But with these essentia, his promotion time would be reduced to an incredible level.

Therefore, the temptation of this 500 Sith essentia is still immense!

Athletics...... Essentia ......

Grim listened carefully, silently savoring, always having some doubts about the association's motives.

In the hands of the 4th order wizards of the association, there must be more or less essentia reserves. These are the guarantees they rely on for promotion and promotion, and it is not enough to use them all for themselves, and who would be so kind to take out the essentia they have worked so hard to collect as a gift reward to the younger generations?

This doesn't quite fit the selfish nature of wizards!

Therefore, there must be some ulterior conspiracy behind the association's coming forward to hold a third-order wizard competition this time. It's just that with Grim's current identity and status, there is no way to understand and dig the inside story.

"Who are you competing in this competition?" asked Grim in a deep voice.

"Originally, there were only three veteran third-order wizards, Garo of the Denel family, Dante of the Anemdo Academy, and Sanaza of the Salubo family...... Due to your outstanding performance in the last Wizarding House War, several of the Elders of the Guild have proposed to add you to the roster. How's that, little one, would you like to take part in this tournament?"

At this moment, even with the high-frequency operation of the chip, all the pros and cons cannot be completely calculated, and everything can only rely on Grim's personal analysis and judgment.

There is definitely a crisis.

But the existence of a crisis can only be a harbinger of danger and opportunity.

For those who are prepared, a crisis is an opportunity, a good time to break the routine and take the opportunity to outrun the enemy. But for those who are unprepared, the crisis is a real danger, and it will push themselves into a certain dilemma, and they can't help themselves.

And the reason why she is here, Alice's attitude is undoubtedly very important.

From Alice's faint hint before departure, Grim vaguely understood something.

Grim looked up and met the gaze of Master Fried, nodding heavily.

"Lord Fried, I'm willing to join this tournament!"

"Okay, very good...... Wizard Fried nodded in satisfaction, turned back and ordered, "Lauryne, you have heard Grim's answer, go down and make arrangements!"

"Yes, sir!" Laurien glanced at Grim with a complicated look on his face, and turned to leave.

"Alright, you can rest and adjust in Kesslinburg during this time. The guild will notify all wizarding families or organizations in Tallinn in the scattered lands of the tournament in the form of an announcement, inviting them to send representatives to participate in the event. It is expected that the start of the athletic conference will be in three months. In this way, even the wizarding families in the most remote areas will have a chance to arrive!"

Bit by bit, President Fried explained a lot of questions, and then waved Grim away.

When Grim's figure disappeared from the room, President Fried smiled and fell silent.

The light and shadow in the room changed, and the figures of two wizards, a man and a woman, emerged.

"How's it going? You've observed this Grim, how do you feel about him?" asked Fried, who didn't seem surprised by their presence.

"His body stats are a bit weird, it seems that he is a little too tall...... "The new male wizard is emaciated, with a slender face, and is also an elderly wizard, none other than the vice president of the association, Wizard Mirwa.

As for the other witch, she is a Clara wizard of the 4th order, and she is also the current patriarch of the Denel family. The Broken-Face Wizard Garo who participated in the tournament was a member of her family.

"In addition to the physical data, I see that there is also some problem with his soul fluctuations, which seem to be mixed with some strange things......" Clara Witch said coldly.

President Fried and Vice President Mirwa thought for a moment, and couldn't help but nod their heads at the same time, silently agreeing.

Yes, there is a trace of something strange in this kid's soul fluctuation that is completely specific to humans, which is very unpredictable......

"No matter how weird his soul is, as long as it doesn't affect this athletic conference. Don't forget, less than 30 years is that time, if you don't choose a substitute for the dead, then the unlucky one will be one of you and me!" Wizard Fried gritted his teeth and squeezed out these cold words from between his teeth.

The other two wizards frowned slightly, and could only nod silently.
