The Black Forest is unusually hot and humid in the afternoon.

The tall, straight body of the tree supports the huge canopy like an umbrella cover.

The tall ancient trees are not far apart, and the crowns, branches and vines are all mixed together to form a dense and deep forest. A mist wafts through the forest, and the sunlight that leaks through the cracks in the branches and leaves forms slanting pillars of light, dotting the forest like a dream.

There was not a single beast cry in the forest.

The earth suddenly tumbled at the foot of a tall ancient tree, and a bag of dirt the size of a human head bulged, and then countless black beetles poured out of it, converging into a wriggling human form.

The insect man, made of countless beetles, stood silently for a while, as if he was silently communicating something with some of his subordinates in the distance. After a moment, the insect man lifted the surging head of ten thousand insects, turned to look in the direction of the sub-bee hive, and his heart was full of doubts.

The sub-bee people actually gave up the outer hunting area and the inner living area, and all retreated back to the hive. This was obviously a bit of a surprise to 'him'!

However, after a little thought, Bilis deduced from the knowledge crystal that Grim had sent him about the possible actions of the subbees.

The knowledge crystal sent to him by Grim is quite rich in content, covering almost all the racial origins, ethnic structure, ruling methods, power operation methods, basic data of the members of the sub-bees, as well as their fighting methods and class characteristics......

With this data, Billis could literally sling this group of low-level monsters that were large enough to overwhelm his little bug army. In many cases, Biliss was able to set traps and wait for the bees to come to his door.

And with the Babies' unusual behavior now, Billis can still find the answers he needs from the knowledge crystal.

Blood locust bees, this is probably the only support for those sub-bee people!

The Blood Locust Bee is a terrifying otherworldly creature with a powerful strength at the wizard level, and it is also one of the few individuals among the sub-bee people whose single strength can cross the wizard level.

Any tribe of Abel bees that wants to maintain a single blood locust must sacrifice the lives of three to five bee warriors every day. Therefore, if the group grows to more than a thousand people, otherwise the bee queen will never easily hatch this terrible creature that devours enemies and eats itself.

And now, the subbee people are about to go crazy by this nasty insect man, so they don't care about these taboos, and are ready to quickly hatch a blood locust to deal with Bilis.

According to the Crystal of Knowledge, the Blood Locust Wasp has a strong body that is not weaker than that of a junior body refining wizard, and its flying speed is extremely fast, and its terrifying guillotine-like mouthparts can eat raw steel.

Confronting such a guy head-on, not to mention that the 7 young hinged scorpions just hatched by Biliss could not be its opponents, even Biliss was in danger of being killed by it.

Hmph, if you can't be provoked, then hide and go!

Biliss is not a wild monster with no head and no brains, and he eats it to death if he stares at one. Anyway, the task given to him by the master was only to contain the expansion of the sub-bee people, and now that it has basically been done, there is no need to stay here and fight with them.

Return to the Witch Tower?

As soon as he thought of the forest demon's menacing appearance when he saw him, Bilis's heart ignited with a vicious murderous intent. However, the forest demon seems to be the companion of the other 'mouse', and the 'mouse' is the master's assistant, and it seems that he can't move easily.

Since you don't want to go back to the Witch Tower, let's go and find trouble with other monsters!

The owner said that the three demon dogs and Medusa were his secret hands, and they couldn't be moved easily. Then there aren't many options left.

Wyvern?

No, they can fly and it's hard to hunt!

Giant elephants?

No, their strength and physique are too strong, and with the strength of the juvenile stinging scorpion, they can't be damaged at all.

After thinking about it, it seems that the Red Flame Tiger and the ogres are more suitable for him now.

Bilis's strength is now improving rapidly, and it is estimated that he will be able to become a senior apprentice in two or three more meals. At that time, the skyrocketing spiritual power will be enough for him to control more of his subordinates, and his combat power will also be greatly improved.

Well, let's choose the ogre!

They are abundant in number, and their sorcery abilities are scarce, so they are suitable for watering their own bug army.

After thinking about it, Bilis didn't hesitate any longer, and his entire body suddenly collapsed, turning into countless tiny beetles and burrowing into the ground, and then swooping towards the ogre camp to the northeast.

Behind him, seven young scorpions the size of a basin were also burrowing rapidly underground.

On the ground, seven slightly raised mounds quickly moved away......

…………

Throne of Fire.

There was an earth-shattering bang.

The entire Witch Tower trembled slightly.

Due to a small mistake, the runes engraved on the second-order elemental crystal nucleus were slightly off, and the disturbance of the magic power led to a terrifying explosion.

The explosion was obviously beyond the Alchemy Laboratory's ability to defend against the Witch Array, and the terrifying shock wave overflowed, even affecting the entire Witch Tower.

Grim opened the door to the lab, staggered out of it in a thick puff of black smoke. Behind him, the entire laboratory was in shambles, littered with the shattered fragments of the alchemy platform and the incessant explosion.

Kogan, Gargamel, and Meryl, who rushed to the door after hearing the news, eagerly greeted them.

"Are you alright......"

"It's all right, ...... master"

"It's not hurt, teacher......"

Three people, three different greetings, but in exchange for a violent cough from Grim.

Grim's young and tough face was pale at the moment, and there was even a trace of blood foaming at the corners of his mouth. And on his body, the black robe has been blown out of several large holes, and there are still sporadic flames burning.

Judging from the situation at the scene, it is clear that both the spirit and body have been injured by the explosion of the elemental crystal nucleus. In that environment, no defensive sorcery could withstand the serial blasts of the Elemental Explosion, and even the spirit could easily be affected by the Elemental Shock.

"Ahem...... Too...... It's a pity ......" Grim coughed violently and exhorted intensely, "It's almost done...... I still can't keep up with my mental strength......"

"Grim, you don't have to be in a hurry. Although Wizard Kogan regretted that a second-order elemental crystal nucleus had been scrapped like this, he still needed to comfort the other party's emotions on the surface: "The task period left to you by the family is still very generous, you don't want to try it in such a hurry." It's better to be steady!"

Gargamel and Meryl couldn't interject on such an occasion, so they could only huddle around Grim and treat the more obvious wounds on his body.

Just after a while, Grim's spirit improved a lot.

"It's a really pity this time! It's just a little bit done, but it's still ...... in a hurry. Failed......"

"Don't be in such a hurry...... There's really no need to rush it. In my opinion, you still need to be steady...... In addition, I have already completed the witchcraft you asked me to transform. There's still a lot of business to be done on the family side, so I won't stay here any longer......" Grim has been in the lab for the past few days, and Kogan can hardly see him, so I took this opportunity to say goodbye to him.

Of course, Grim was full of gratitude for this, and asked Gargamel to take the promised reward and hand it over to Wizard Kogan himself.

Although you are a wizard in the same family, this kind of extremely mentally and time-consuming task cannot be done in vain, so the necessary remuneration is also indispensable.

It wasn't until Gargamel personally sent off Wizard Kogan that the three of them reunited in the secret chamber on the fourth floor of the Witch Tower.

"Teacher, is your body really okay? Do you need to meditate and self-examine quickly......" Meryl asked with concern.

Grim's body, which had been a little rickety just now, suddenly straightened up, and his spirit, which was still a little sluggish, suddenly became full.

"Master, what's going on with that?" Gargamel was apparently involved, rubbing his hands nervously and glaring at a pair of green bean eyes, asking in a low voice.

Meryl was confused by the actions of the two, and a pair of beautiful eyes swirled on their faces.

Grim didn't answer, his right hand lightly touched his waist, and with a flip, a brilliant and crystal clear demon golem crystal nucleus appeared in front of the two of them.

"It's done...... It became ...... Sure enough, it was ......" Gargamel immediately danced with joy and pounced in front of Grimm, a pair of rats staring at the golem crystal nucleus, the goatee on his chin pouting and trembling.

It's a pity that when it comes to sparkling gemstones, women are far more sensitive and flexible than men are ten times more flexible.

Before Gargamel's trembling hands could be stretched out, the golem crystal nucleus had already fallen into Meryl's hands.

Meryl couldn't put it down and played with it repeatedly, and at the same time angrily sneered at the two of them: "This is what you call an elite elemental demon golem? Isn't it supposed to have been destroyed? Why is it still there......?" Were you just acting?"

Grim and Gargamel didn't answer, but they let out a 'sinister' laugh.

"Teacher, even you have been spoiled by the insidious Gargamel. It must have been Gargamel's idea...... It's bad enough......" Meryl gave Gargamel a blank look and continued to play with the precious anomalous 'gem'.

Belch......

Gargamel choked Meryl and rolled his eyes, almost shouting that it was all Grim's idea, and that he was just the one who handled it.

It's a pity that his words were suppressed by Grim's majestic gaze, and he could only silently carry this 'black cauldron'.

"To be honest, I didn't expect to succeed the first time, so I prepared for both. But fortunately, I was lucky, and I finally got it, and by the way, I deceived that Kogan a little. Grim said with infinite emotion: "By the way, this matter is only known to the two of you, and the rest of the members are not allowed to tell ......."

"What about Ava?" Gargamel rolled his eyes.

It can be seen that this Gargamel is obedient to the forest demon Ava, and looks like a good baby.

Grim froze slightly, and could only change his words again: "Only you and Ava are allowed to know, and nothing else is allowed to be revealed!"

Gargamel bowed down with Meryl.
