Chapter 0131: Premeditated
The difference between the Body of Fire and the Body of Fire is huge. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
If Grim's body was still flesh and blood in the previous stage of the body of fire, then now, after transforming into a body of flames, he can be regarded as truly immune to fire. Even without the blessing of the Flame Lord's Staff, he was able to bathe and play in the lava sea at will, and he no longer had to worry about being harmed by the heat.
After all, the so-called fire immunity with external blessings is only immune to some low-level fire damage, and once the elemental flame exceeds a certain limit, he still has to bear a certain amount of fire damage. Previously, when the Fire Body was strengthened, his body was damaged by the too fierce transformation of the fire energy, mainly because the strength of the fire energy he received at that time exceeded the upper limit of the fire immunity.
Now that he has transformed into a Flame Body, he can elementalize part of his body anytime and anywhere, thus exempting him from all fire damage. In the future, even if you are a second-order wizard, don't think about hurting him with elemental fireballs. However, this damage immunity is only limited to the fire type, and once he encounters a mutated fire type sorcery, he may still not be able to avoid being harmed.
For example, lava fireballs have a combination of fire damage and physical attacks. Grim may be immune to fire damage, but not physical damage. And this mutated type of fire sorcery accounts for more than half of all sorcery, that is, wizards are targeted by the enemy to restrain themselves in order to avoid their elemental attacks.
Just like the current lava sea, if Grim had gone too deep into the lava, he could have been damaged by the flames. Now that he has the Body of Flames, any area where the fire elementals gather has become his home turf, and no matter how hot the elemental flame is, it will not be able to hurt him in the slightest, but will become his greatest benefit.
At least in the lava sea, the geographical advantage of the molten core giants has been leveled!
If the manipulation of elemental flames was a masterful sorcery skill before, now manipulation of elemental flames is a physical instinct for Grim. In the future, Grim will no longer need to run in and out of the sea of fire, because he is the fire, the fire is him, and the elemental flames under his control will no longer affect the clothes outside the body!
In addition, the greatest benefit that the Body of Fire brings to Grim is the fire mastery. All fire-based sorcery attacks are doubled, spell holding time is halved, and mental power consumed is halved. In any area where the fire elemental is abundant, the speed of mental power recovery is doubled, and the Body of Fire automatically repairs its own damage.
But there are gains and losses!
The Body of Fire isn't all good, either. At least when Grimm takes water or ice damage, the damage is doubled. In areas rich in water elementals, his self-healing and mental recovery will also be inhibited.
Grim already knew about these things, so he wasn't surprised. And now, he is more concerned about his own strength. After careful scanning of the chip, his latest strength data was projected.
Name: Grim
Race: Human (Semi-Elemental)
Attributes: Strength 9.24 (+1), Agility 7.87 (+1), Constitution 13.22 (+1), Mental Power 20
Occupation: Wizard Apprentice (Quasi-Wizard)
Health: 62/62 (Health)
Professional experience: 927/1000
Class Skills: Transcription Scroll, Spell Reading, Golem Crafting (Intermediate), Fire Specialization
Personal Skills: Body of Fire (Passive), Burning Hand, Flame Bolt, Flame Spear, Fire Shield, Fire Retaliation (Close Passive), High Temperature Force Field
Sorcery Equipment: Flame Lord's Lordship, Storage, Voodoo Scroll, Speed Boots (Agility +1), Brute Force Charm (Constitution, Strength +1), Disarming Wand, Healing Wand, Prophecy Wand, Green Elf (Curse Resistance +5), Screaming Branch
Looking at the latest data counted by the chip, Grim's resolute and calm heart couldn't help but stir a little. From now on, he is no longer a rookie apprentice who is willing to kill and take away his life!
However, unfortunately, since his mental power jumped from 16 to 20 points, the previous Noble Headband with Spirit +1 and Purple Ayn Stone with Spirit +2 have lost their auxiliary boosting effect. His spiritual power has reached the upper limit of 20 points for wizard apprentices, and if he wants to improve again, he needs to comprehend the power of the law, supplemented by the necessary promotion rituals.
And this is undoubtedly an afterthought, and the biggest significance of the current advanced quasi-witch to him is that the long-planned plan can finally be implemented!
After possessing the body of flames, the human aura on his body became weaker and weaker. As long as he was carefully disguised, with the harshness and cruelty of the lava sea environment, it would be extremely difficult for the molten giant to find his traces again.
Grim returned to shore and armed himself with his sorcery equipment, only to plunge headlong into the lava sea and disappear without a trace.
…………
Elder Nimr has been a little restless these days.
As the patriarch of the remnant of the Molten Giants, it is necessary for it to use its wisdom and life to protect and perpetuate the existence of the Molten Giants.
This world does not belong to them!
Although the Molten Core Giants are strong in body and strong individually, as a special race that cannot survive independently from the volcanic world, they can only stick to their own world and avoid the invasion of outsiders.
This world belongs to human wizards.
This was known from the moment the first molten giant was born in the depths of the earth's core. The reason why human wizards are able to tolerate the existence of such an alien race is to enslave them and loot them.
The volcanic world belongs to them, and they belong to the Jubell family.
With a sorcery pact from a millennia ago, the great Molten Giant clan became an alternative miner to the local human wizard family, handing in a long list of resources every 5 years. And the amount of this batch of resources is a headache for these children of the sea of fire.
As a proud and powerful race, they have not tried to resist, but the power of human wizards is something they cannot match. The terrifyingness of the 3rd Order Great Wizard is difficult for those who have not experienced it to understand at all. The most direct consequence of that rebellion for the Molten Giant tribe was the loss of 1/3 of the number of people. And such a huge creation allowed them to recuperate for three or four hundred years before they barely recovered.
Before the rebellion, the oppression of human sorcerers was severe, but they did not intrude into their territory. But in the past few hundred years, the wizard family called Jubel has become more and more excessive, and often takes advantage of the temporary break of the volcano to send some wizard apprentices to come down to practice.
For a human apprentice, it may be a life experience, but for the molten giants, it is to slaughter their subordinate beasts. Sometimes, they even gather crowds to besiege the lone molcore giant hatchlings, which further arouses the anger of the molten giants.
However, Elder Nimur negotiated with the third-order great wizard of the Jubei family several times, but was sternly warned by the other party not to arbitrarily harm the apprentices who came to the Jubel family to train. Outside apprentices are not included.
Unfortunately, in the eyes of the molten giants, the human apprentices were unrecognizable, so they had to form patrols to prevent any human apprentices from approaching their habitats. Fortunately, the strength of the human apprentices who came to the trial was limited, and coupled with the fact that the molten core giants had consciously dispersed to the periphery of the fire creatures to block, there were not many cases that could break into the lava sea and disturb their lives.
This year, however, is clearly different.
This time, a mysterious guy appeared in the human wizard apprenticeship, who broke into the edge of the lava sea five times and three times, and seemed to be studying some inexplicable witchcraft there. Since this guy is so cunning and strange that it is difficult to stop him even if two or three patrols are dispatched, Nimr can only drink to warn the giants to be vigilant, and the little ones in the clan are not allowed to leave their place of residence alone.
In order to prevent outsiders from coveting the collected gems and materials, Nimr even sent two more powerful warriors to guard the family treasury. But even so, when it was comfortably soaked in the fire pool, a chill still flashed in the bottom of its heart from time to time, as if something particularly important was missing.
Nimr is a 7-meter-tall molten giant and the oldest in the clan, having lived to be 1,815 years old. And its strength has reached the peak of the molten core giant, converted to the set of human wizards, to say the least, it also has the strength of the 2nd order peak.
However, as a special race that relies on strong bodies and talents to fight, the powerful fire-based abilities it can master are no more than ten fingers. Human wizards of the same rank often have nearly a hundred powerful witchcraft to choose from.
Without the profound knowledge accumulation of human wizards that has lasted for nearly 10,000 years, without the endless strange equipment of human wizards, without the huge number of human wizards, and relying solely on the powerful natural abilities of dimensional consciousness to provide, the molten core giant will never be able to escape the fate of being enslaved by human wizards!
With such strength, as long as it wasn't for the terrifying 3rd order great wizard of the Jubei family, in the home field of the lava sea, it was not afraid of any opponent of the same rank at all. But all these days, it still felt a chill run through its heart from time to time, as if something bad was about to becross their tribe.
Therefore, it has always been difficult to sleep and eat these days, and every day it constantly urges its people to patrol the area and regularly inspect the whole island, and point everyone out of disgrace. However, to its relief, after all this hard work, the three-month volcanic recess is finally coming to an end. Sensing the louder and louder rumbling thunder in the depths of the earth's core, its heart was relieved a little.
But the more moments like this, the more scared it became.
Today, Nimr's uneasiness rose to the extreme, making it difficult for him to sleep in the fire pool in the cavern, so he could only step out of his dwelling and stand on the edge of the island where he lived, patrolling the surrounding movements.
