Chapter 0442 - Danger lurks
The night was late.
But Grim still didn't fall asleep, and even postponed his thunderous four-hour meditation routine.
In front of him was a list of wizards who would soon appear in Gilneth City.
The list is not long, there are only 5 names, but 3 belong to the Yanu family.
That's a terrible number!
You must know that even in Ferdinand City, where the headquarters of the Sarubo family is located, the number of resident wizards is usually 2-3. And the Yanu family sent 3 wizards to the vicinity of Gilneth City just for this little thing, which ...... No matter how you look at it, it looks like a bad comer!
After losing the Flame Tyrant, Grim's usual strength is no more than that of a veteran wizard. Once the Firefiend transformation is completed, the strength can jump to the level of an elite wizard. If you want to deal with your opponent quickly, you can only unlock the Heart of the Flame Demon and complete the second transformation, so that he can have the strength of the elite peak in a quarter of an hour.
With this kind of combat power, as long as he doesn't provoke too strong opponents, Grim can even easily deal with the challenges of opponents of the same level. If he releases a wizard-level golem, he can still have a better chance of winning.
But this is aimed at wizards below the elite level. If you really want to encounter an elite battle wizard who can't solve the battle in a quarter of an hour, then Grim's situation will be very dangerous. If those wizards are still prepared and prepare some fire-resistant witchcraft and props, then Grim's combat power will be directly halved.
And in order to solve this problem, Grim must complete the transformation of the dragon crystal's combat power as soon as possible, otherwise it is very likely that he will not be able to cope with so many challenges in this mission.
Ramir, female, of the Yanu family, a psychic wizard, specializes in controlling the minds of others with the power of witchcraft......
Sicha, male, a member of the Yanu family, is a sorcerer of body refining with unrivaled strength and an indestructible and powerful body......
Flender, male, Yanu family, elemental wizard (water), skilled in water sorcery and powerful. It is said that his 'waterspout' also holds a terrifying record of smashing three wizards with one move......
Enon, male, Sender, Bloodline Wizard (Shapeshifter), can transform into the Void Bat, a Void creature that transcends the physical plane......
Baroque, male, Morrison family, elemental wizard (botanical), good at plant catalysis and magic plant transformation......
……
For some inexplicable reason, all 5 wizards appeared near the city of Gilneis. Among them, 3 of the Yanu family are obviously coming for themselves, while the other 2 wizards are a little confused.
Either there's something to do around here, or it's ......
There are so many possibilities that Grim can't help but have a headache.
According to the Ramir, the Yanu family was planning to capture one or two of the Sarubo family and exchange them for the Zak who had taken refuge in the city of Ferdinand. So only Ramil himself was sent, and the target was the two apprentices.
But since Grim's arrival, the Yanu family felt that the weight of the two quasi-witches was still not enough, so they hit him with the idea.
Originally, their family's plan was to send two more wizards to join up with Ramil to capture Grim. But this Ramil wizard was obviously overconfident in his own strength, and he couldn't help but make the first move.
And the result is ...... Nature is nothing.
And in order to know how Grim got rid of her psychic suggestion, the Ramil wizard also made a deal with Grim in private, saying the names of the two wizards in an equivalent exchange.
Of course, it is impossible for Grim to tell the secret of the chip, but he puts everything on his own natural ability. Although Ramil was not satisfied with this answer, he did not dwell on it too much.
Grim even had the feeling that even if he didn't do anything, this Ramil would find an excuse to hand over the information of the two wizards.
Looking at this information, Grim's head hurts!
Elite-level water wizards, how do you look like they're specifically here to deal with themselves. Assist another body refining wizard who can fight and resist, and there is a mind wizard who is difficult to discern next to him, and he seems to have no better way than to flee in the wilderness......
Kill yourself, the other party will never do this.
After all, the overall strength of the Sarubo family is still above the Yanu family, once he annoys a 6th-order great wizard, the 4th-order Yanu patriarch will hide in the wizard world for the rest of his life, and his life will not be easy. Therefore, they dare not kill people.
The reason why 3 wizards were sent at the same time was more to capture Grim in one fell swoop as a bargaining chip for the family's negotiations. And if Grim is defeated and detained by the Yanu family, even if he is exchanged by the Sarupo family afterwards, it will have a big blow to his reputation.
This may be a means that Lord Sanazar wants to knock Grim!
After thinking about this, Grim reluctantly found that what he lacked most was strength. If you want to break the current situation, there is almost no other way than to rely on a strength far beyond the imagination of outsiders.
It's no wonder that Ramil threw out the information without care, and with a combination of an elite-level combat wizard and two veteran wizards, it was a matter of hand. She wasn't worried at all that Grim would be able to fly into the sky.
Maybe the inside story of this conflict is secret, and she is also an insider!
In the days that followed, Grim simply shut himself in the stone tower and couldn't get out.
He had temporarily suspended several other research projects, freeing up all of the chip's computational time to design, build, and optimize the prototype of the Tier 2 Dragon Crystal.
The estimated completion time of the chip is 9 days......
The chip worked overtime day and night to build the data model and continuously optimize it, while Grim scoured for the necessary sorcery materials. As the level of the golem crystal nucleus becomes higher and higher, ordinary sorcery materials can no longer meet the high-strength, high-power elemental energy output.
Therefore, in order to create this Wind Dragon Demon Golem, which Grim had high hopes for, he began to use his authority to garrison wizards, and transferred all the resources and materials he could use from the resource points and pit warehouses to the stone tower in one go.
Billis and Sabrina were also turned around by him, temporarily transformed into two schoolboys, busy with these witchcraft materials for him every day.
Although these actions were not in accordance with the rules, at this moment, no one dared to point fingers at him.
However, while Grim was silently preparing for all this, the two wizards of the Yanu family arrived.
Grim didn't see their existence, and Viscount Salva didn't have any relevant information from him, but he just knew that the other party had arrived.
Because from the fourth day onwards, there has been no peace around the city of Gilneis.
The first accident was in the pit of the Iron Ring Excavation Site.
Suddenly it started to be haunted.
Overnight, there were 20 fewer miners at the excavation site.
There is a small town near the excavation site, where most of the families have people working in the mine. They mined in the mines during the day and returned to the town at night to rest, and their lives were peaceful.
However, on the night of the fourth day of Grim's arrival in Gilneth City, 20 miners suddenly disappeared from the town. They all disappeared while resting in their own homes, and the family members who lived with them had no idea where they were. I only know that after sleeping at night, they disappear!
While everyone was talking, the next night, 20 more miners disappeared from their homes.
At this moment, the wizard apprentices sitting in the excavation site could not sit still, and sent people to the house of the missing miner, but found no trace of witchcraft.
As a result, Yuri, who was helpless, could only run to the bluestone tower in a sweat to ask for Shegrim.
"My lord, what do you think should be done in such a situation?"
"What you usually do, how do you still deal with it!" replied Grim, holding a parchment roll in his hand.
"But ......," Yuri couldn't help but mutter.
At this moment, he really desperately wanted Grim to get to the excavation site to take control. With a sorcerer there, the secret enemy would never be so arrogant.
Judging from the enemy's methods, the possibility of a wizard's apprentice has basically been ruled out. This...... This means that the person who is secretly peeping into the mine is most likely an official wizard from the Yanu family.
The thought of a powerful wizard hiding in the shadows at this moment and silently planning to deal with the mine, Yuri's heart trembled!
"Let's go back!" Grim still looked bleak, "They just killed some miners." You go back and pay some more gold to appease them all. I'll take care of the rest!"
Grim has already said it so bluntly, although Yuri quasi-witch is unwilling, he can only give a salute and leave.
To tell the truth, if it weren't for his duties, this Yuri wouldn't want to move to live in the stone tower, and he wouldn't want to go back to that excavation site at all.
However, under the persecution of Grim, Yuri Quasi-Wu gritted his teeth and had to turn around and rush back to the excavation site.
After Yuri left, Grim raised his head, looked at the scene outside the tower, and sneered: "You want to trick me out......?"
Since the enemy has even used the trick of luring the snake out of the hole, he must be confident that he will eat Grim in one bite. That's why he surmised that the two fellow wizards Ramil had arrived, and that they were spreading a net, waiting to catch them.
"Let's make trouble, let's toss......" Grim muttered, "My wind dragon is not good, you just broke the sky, don't try to trick me out." Hmph......"
As a result, over the next three or four days, the Sarubo family was attacked one after another at several resource points near the city of Gilneis. Either it was a sudden fire in the storehouse, or a sudden mass withering of potions grown in the resource point, or the sudden disappearance of some personnel......
At first, most of the missing people were just ordinary people, and later, even some of the family apprentices stationed in the family disappeared inexplicably.
The whole city of Gilneth was full of rumors and panic, and some clever nobles and trading houses even escaped this terrible whirlpool early.
And the greater pressure fell directly on Grim!
