Carried by the crocodile hunter, Grim shuttled quickly 3 meters below the ground like a fish in water. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Through the dense earth element mist, the spiritual power constantly transmitted everything perceived along the way back to Grim's mind. Curled knotted rhizomes of ancient trees, broken sandstone blocks, wriggling insects and reptiles, curled up in nests of gophers and cockroaches, rotting dead branches, unknown fragments......

It's just a short trip, but Grim has a vague glimpse of another alternative world that is completely different from his previous cognition. And in this hidden world, Grim is like a ruthless emperor who overlooks all kinds of things in the world, thoughtless and selfless. If he really had the heart, a single thought could come out, and the Demon Crocodile Hunter would be able to turn this place upside down.

Although he also had the heart to experience this alternative perspective of traveling underground, he couldn't resist it after only half an hour.

This time it's not that he is mentally exhausted, but that he is running out of breath.

As a wizard apprentice who has mastered extraordinary powers, Grim's body is far stronger than ordinary people in terms of resistance and tolerance. Ordinary people were afraid that they would be unconscious after holding their breath for a minute, but he felt depressed after holding on for half a quarter of an hour.

At his signal, the Earth Elemental Outside the Demon Crocodile Hunter's body vibrate, separating the heavy layer of soil above his head and slowly burrowing out of the earth.

The sudden appearance of the Demon Crocodile Hunter surprised the surrounding monsters, and among the countless sharp infant cries, a raindrop of negative curses fell on them.

"Damn, get into the baby's nest!" Grim cursed under his breath, driving the crocodile hunter out of the baby's nest.

Although the baby monster's "curse" ability is weird and difficult to prevent, it is only a group of low-level monsters after all, and when facing semi-elemental demon crocodile hunters, their negative curse success rate is not high. Instead, the native hunter on the back of the demon crocodile threw out several spears one after another and shot 2 baby monsters, and the rest of the guys scattered in a hurry, hiding in the grass and not daring to act rashly.

Perhaps it was only at this moment that Grim vaguely understood the state of mind when the three Alice broke into the magical swamp. Once they have the strength and capital of a high-level apprentice, ordinary low-level monsters really don't pose a threat to them. In the face of a group of ants and maggots that can be destroyed at their fingertips, it is no wonder that they know that this is a forbidden place, but they still behave so unscrupulously.

To be honest, if it weren't for Wizard Anderson's intervention, the wizard apprentices and swamp monsters here alone wouldn't be able to help the three of them.

As for what happened to Alice, it was a complete accident.

It was precisely because Alice's ability was too strong and her strength was too terrifying that the evil insect Ntick had to fight with her. Coupled with a not very good strength, but with a poisonous and accurate vision, Alice was deflated one after another, and almost lost her life in the muddy swamp.

These abominable baby monsters were a terrible and difficult group of monsters for Grim in the past. Once he is surrounded by them, even if he is protected by a witchcraft amulet, his fate will be miserable. But now, with the help of the Demon Crocodile Hunter, Grim can kill them like a dog, and he no longer feels the fear and panic he had before.

So inadvertently, Grim's mentality began to change bit by bit.

Bullying the weak, the weak eating the strong, domineering...... These words sound harsh, but if you really want to be the strong side, it's quite cool to put it into practice.

The crocodile hunter rushed out of the Garden of Whispers, and it wasn't until he reached the gravel path that Grim jumped off the golem, dispelled the earth elemental, and retracted the two summoning crystal nuclei. It was close to the entrance to the swamp tower, and it was time for Grim to revert to his old low-key appearance.

Pulling back on his hood and hiding his face, Grim slipped quietly back to the tower.

The experiment was a success and greatly boosted Grim's confidence. However, at the same time, some problems have been revealed, the most serious of which is how to sneak underground for a long time.

The Demon Crocodile Hunter may not need to breathe, but Grim does! Deep underground, protected by the Earth Elemental dispersed by the Demon Crocodile Hunter, Grim also has the ability to travel underground. However, there is no air underground, and if this breathing problem is not solved, it will always be difficult for him to sneak underground for a long time.

So after returning to the Swamp Tower, Grim spent the next few days traveling from apprentice to apprentice, searching for solutions to the dilemmas of dark vision and underground breathing. In his spare time, he would sneak out of the tower and wander the magic swamp in search of monsters suitable for making into a golem.

It's a pity that even when he got to the end of the day, he didn't find a suitable monster.

At the end of the day, the Enchanted Swamp is just an ordinary wizarding family resource point. More of the monsters planted and bred here are just some ordinary monsters that are suitable for breeding and harvesting, so it is almost delusional to want to harvest monster crystal nuclei in large quantities here. It's Simba and the giant crocodile king harvested by Grim, and they are also rare advanced monsters in the magic swamp in the past hundred years, otherwise he wouldn't even want to get this harvest.

However, although he did not obtain a new crystal nucleus, it also allowed Grim to take the opportunity to collect a batch of monster materials and witch potion materials. With these things, Grim took some more practical trinkets from the apprentices.

One of the most satisfying things for Grim was a beautiful aristocratic headband.

Put the noble headband on his head, the clear diamond at the front of the headband is pressed in the middle of Grim's forehead, and what it brings to Grim is not only gentle and elegant temperament, but also a slight increase in spiritual power +1.

For senior apprentices, this headband has lost its stimulating and strengthening effect on mental power, but for Grim, whose mental power is only 8 points, it can bring himself a big boost.

The problem of dark vision has also been solved.

The solution is a kind of dwarf engineering goggles!

According to the intermediate apprentice who traded it to Grim, it was supposed to be a civilization crystallization from an alien plane. With this combination of black holster and clear crystals, Grim will be able to see everything around him in low light.

After Grim took it back, he also scanned and analyzed the chip, and this strange thing should belong to a kind of mechanical civilization. The presence of elemental fluctuations is not perceived on it, as if it were a mortal object. And the reason why it can see in a shimmer of light is all those underground spars that have been polished with special techniques.

As for the composition of the spar, the chip has also been analyzed, and it is not a product of the wizarding world, but should also be a special product of the plane where this mechanical civilization is located.

As a large plane, the wizarding world has also captured and enslaved countless small and medium-sized planes, and this gnome engineering goggle may come from an enslaved secondary plane.

In the general perception of the wizarding world, only official wizards have the qualifications to travel through the plane to conquer the other world, and below the official wizards, even those quasi-wizards with outstanding talents, are not qualified to participate in the expedition of the alien plane. So Grim could only imagine what this mechanical civilization world might look like, and at the same time carefully put the dwarf engineering goggles into his pocket.

As for the problem of underground respiration, Grim has also been solved by biological means.

Among the Tower's apprentices was also a fellow who excelled at biomodification, using snake vine grass and rootless purple leaf flowers, combined with strange things like insect oil and toad droppings, to create a respiratory organ similar to that of grass leaf insects. When Grim needs to go to a confined environment, as long as he stuffs this respiratory organ into his mouth in time, he will temporarily gain the ability to breathe through his skin.

And when he doesn't need a breath aid, he just spits it out, and the ability disappears. Since this is only an auxiliary organ, not an organ replacement, there is no problem of blood contamination.

After solving these problems, Grim finally let go of his worries, and no longer easily stepped out of the door of his residence, and spent the whole day either meditating or studying the witchcraft books that had just been collected.

On the fifth day of accepting the mandatory mission, Grim finally waited for the chip prompt that the Flame Arrow optimization had been completed.

"Drop, the Flame Arrow Mental Power Model has been optimized...... Do you want to show the optimized content?"

"Show!" replied Grim eagerly.

With the advent of a long stream of data, Grim's mind was projected into the image of the Flame Bolt, a long-range sorcery that had been massively optimized.

If the Flame Bolt was just a magic arrow, now it takes the form of a Flame Spear. The tame and condensed heat flame condensed into a spear form, and with a single movement of Grim, it could quickly shoot out, dealing both physical and fire damage to enemies.

Flame Spear, a fire-based mid-level offensive sorcery that can condense flames into the form of a spear to attack enemies. Physical damage: 11 points. Fire Damage: 21 points. Attack range: 5-300 meters. Cooldown: 8s. Mana Cost: 24 points.

With Grim's 9.37 points of mental power after wearing the noble headband, the magic power he has is only 94 points. A medium-level offensive sorcery like a flame spear can only activate 4 at most before it exhausts its spiritual power. Therefore, it is more appropriate to save such a method as a killer weapon at a critical time.

After all, with the attack power of the flame spear, it was not a problem to break through the magic protection of the intermediate apprentice with one blow. Even if you meet a high-level apprentice with defensive sorcery, the flame spear is also an offensive sorcery that should not be underestimated.

To be honest, until now, Grim has really possessed an ontological skill that can be used. With it, Grim's next mission can be regarded as a guarantee.

Finally, in the anxious waiting and suffering of many tower apprentices, the day of departure came.
