Chapter 1463: Camp Obligations
To Grim's surprise, it was already three days before the door opened!
Three days later......
The closed door opened abruptly, and the archwizard of Oneik, dressed in a black robe and with a gloomy face, hurried out of it, and looked up to see Grim standing outside the door.
"Who are you, why are you here?Compus, your vigilance is getting more and more regressive!" said Oldek, who seemed to have forgotten about Grim's existence.
"Dear Lord Onaik, please pay attention to your wording! Regarding the visit of Wizard Grim, I have already passed on the information to you three days ago. You're obsessed with Experiment 9 and have chosen to ignore ......" The space suddenly resounded with the sharp counterattack of the Talling Compus.
Hearing Compus's 'explanation', Onaike scratched his head and could only continue to mumble that he understood.
"Are you...... Grim?" Onek tilted his face, as if remembering something: "By the way, you are the new 5th order of the main plane not long ago...... Well, I remembered......"
Grim stood quietly, trying to restrain his mental strength.
In his keen and true perception, what stood opposite him was not a living form, but a mass of intertwined but unchaotic legal light. Hundreds of chains of laws are tightly wound around the core of the rules, and then like octopus tentacles, they stretch out in all directions.
There are even some law chains that have disappeared into the dimensional void out of thin air, and seem to maintain a close and synchronous connection with some different planes.
Of course, the thickest chain of laws was linked to the central witch tower in front of him. As long as this Honaik Grand Wizard needs it, he can hook up with the tower spirit anytime and anywhere, and then control everything that happens in the central witch tower.
As if sensing Grim's 'gaze', the Archwizard of Oneik shone brightly, and an invisible wave of rules cut off all of Grim's spiritual power tentacles, and then hid himself in a bright light that was impossible to look at.
Grim reluctantly took a step back, and couldn't help but reach out and rub his eyes.
I don't know what means the other party used, his eyes stinged, and he couldn't see anymore!
"Little one, teach you to be a good ...... When you're out and about, don't always probe around with your mental power tentacles. If you meet those short-tempered people, I will punish you based on what you just did!" "Grand Wizard Oneek said hesitantly: "For the sake of you being a newcomer to the main plane, I won't bother with you this time!"
"More advice!" said Grim as he slowly released the fire elemental to repair the damage to his eyeball, bowing in thanks.
To be honest, it is difficult for ordinary people to adapt to this kind of identity change from just coming out of the plane and suddenly changing from a commanding superior to a newcomer who has 'nothing'.
Seemingly extremely satisfied with Grim's attitude, a smile appeared on Ou Neck's face, and he said indifferently: "Come with me!"
With that, a small teleportation door more than two meters high suddenly appeared in front of Ou Neck, and he walked in without hesitation.
Grim quickly followed, too.
The transfer location is located in a magnificent, spacious reception room.
The whole room is filled with a soft, bright white light, which illuminates the floor, walls and ceiling. In the center is a large wooden table and chairs, on which are scattered all kinds of writing utensils such as witchcraft books, scrolls, and pen and ink.
As soon as O'Neik returned, he sat down directly behind the wooden table, rummaged through the messy clutter, and finally pulled out an old and quaint scroll from the bottom of a crooked pile of books, and threw it to Grim.
"See for yourself! As a newcomer, you must follow the rules if you want to stay at Camp Essoda. In addition, if you want to build a witch tower inside the camp, you also need to report the construction location and the specifications of the witch tower in advance......"
As soon as the scroll was in his hands, his fingertips felt the strange toughness and smoothness of the material, and Grim's heart moved slightly.
In my mind, the chip immediately projected the conclusion of the material.
Dragonskin Scrolls!
The reason why it was determined that it was a dragon skin scroll was because Grim sensed a faint aura of dragon power on it. Only a guy like him, who has a small dragon plane and has been in contact with various dragon brand materials all year round, can be so keenly aware of it.
Unfolding the dragon skin scroll, I immediately saw the dense witchcraft text on it.
Kemedia.
This is arguably the most widely used sorcery language and script in the wizarding camp!
The content of the scroll is also very simple, that is, it introduces the size and rules of the Essoda camp, and adds some rules that outsiders need to follow, as well as special things to be aware of.
Overall, any extraterritorial camp is open to the Grand Wizards!
After all, the more archwizards there are, the greater the camp's apparent strength and potential influence. Moreover, every great wizard is not alone in the world, they can get to where they are today, and there is a small force behind them.
Therefore, every time a great wizard is stationed in the camp, it is equivalent to introducing a wizard force with considerable influence in the dimensional world!
As for the size of the power, it depends on the great wizard's own management and management talents.
However, most wizards don't like to do such trivial and complicated things, so it is very rare to actually be able to grow into a large force.
The true owner of Essoda's camp belongs to the 7th Order Grand Wizard Irenwald, and the current actual controller is his disciple 6th Order Grand Wizard Onek.
If Grim wants to stay in Camp Essoda, he will inevitably have to build a wizarding tower of his own, which will be included in the unified planning and management of the camp.
Of course, Grim had already established roots in Camp Essoda more than two hundred years ago, the Iron Capital that was just outside the camp. However, the Steel City is located outside the camp and is not directly protected by the camp.
So many times, the Iron Capital can only defend itself against the attacks of the Wandering Starfolk or Star Beasts!
And once Grim chooses to join the Essoda camp, while being blessed by the power of the 7th order archwizard, he will also have to bear part of the camp obligations accordingly. That's ...... You need to be attached to some camp law enforcement units and become part of the managerial staff.
Of course, as a great wizard, he doesn't need to do all the hard work himself. Each department of the camp has some complete and efficient teams, and they are the worker ants who maintain and support the operation of the entire camp.
As the top manager, the Archwizard only needs to regularly review the completion of their work, and then reward or discipline them according to the rules. It is only when there are some major incidents that they can't handle that the suspended archwizard needs to come forward to coordinate and solve it.
And such a big event may not happen once or twice in ten or eight years......
Therefore, for such a camp obligation, most of the great wizards do not refuse!
What's more, only by controlling the camp law enforcement can some henchmen be planted inside. In this way, they can also meddle in the resources and material markets within the camp, so as to obtain some rare resources that are only available outside the territory.
Such a mutually beneficial thing is undoubtedly very generous for newcomers who have just stepped out of the plane world!
But it's a pity that Grim has his own plans for his future life, so naturally it is impossible to follow in the footsteps of those 'ordinary people'.
"Have you chosen...... Which department of the camp are you going to join?" asked Oneck, yawning impatiently.
Grim carefully handed back the dragon skin scroll and said softly, "My lord, I don't plan to join the camp!"
The air in the room froze for a moment.
Onaik jerked his head up, and for the first time looked at Grim earnestly and carefully.
"You say...... You don't want to join the camp? What do you have to do with the other camps? Is it the Endless Garden that pulls you there?"
For some reason, at the mention of the name Endless Garden, Onek's languid and loose eyes turned cold, as if there was a hint of anger in them.
"The Endless Garden?" Grim shook his head, "I've never heard the name......"
"Then why don't you stay in the camp to learn about the extraterritorial situation, and collect some resources by the way, what are you going to do? The extraterritorial situation is very complicated, don't think that with the strength of the 5th order, you can run around here. In the past thousands of years, I know that there are more than a dozen great wizards who have fallen outside the domain, don't be reckless!"
"I'm going to go to the Fire Elemental Realm to develop a bit...... It fits my soul origin, and it should be much better than the extraterritorial camp!"
"Fire Elemental Realm ......" Onaik groaned for a moment, and had to nod in agreement with Grim's thoughts.
Indeed, as a pure fire witch, if Grim ran to the fire elemental realm, he would not be too excluded by the indigenous fire elemental there. As long as you are willing to put in the effort, put in the effort, and work hard in the fire elemental world for hundreds of years, there is no problem in being a free and easy fire elemental lord.
As for the Fire Elemental Monarch...... This seems to need to be favored by the consciousness of the fire elemental plane.
As an outsider sneaking in, it is understandable how difficult it is to get such preferential treatment.
"Since you're not going to be part of the camp, you can't stay here for too long. And the little trading post you placed outside the camp is no longer protected by the camp!
"It's been thought about!"
"Okay, then you can leave! Remember, you can't stay in the camp for more than a year, and you must leave Camp Essoda within a year!"
Grim bowed down and was going to leave.
And at the moment when he was about to teleport away, Onek's voice suddenly sounded in his head again.
"You're new to the city, and there must be a lot of organizations trying to pull you in. You have to keep your eyes open and choose carefully, and don't get involved in the contradictions and conflicts of those high-ranking wizards......"
The red light shone, and Grim's figure vanished.
