Everywhere you go, you have to gather local knowledge.

It's almost an instinct etched into the soul of every wizard!

Although a lot of rare and special knowledge is impossible to obtain, some regional mass knowledge is enough to satisfy Grim.

After only a two-day stop in Sigma City, they waited for the flying ship to reach the Sky City.

So after briefly appreciating the characteristics of the area ruled by the Silver Alliance, Grim and the others began to set off for the holy city in the hearts of the mysterian wizards, the city in the sky.

It's night.

Grim, dressed in a black robe, sat at the table, the white quill in his hand was constantly performing something on a stack of parchment, densely packed with symbols, formulas, and data. At the same time as the tip of the pen rustled, the blue light flashed in his black eyes, and it was obvious that the chip was also calculating something quickly and synchronously.

Seriously, in fact, most of the computing and deduction work is done by the chip, and all Grim needs to do is to list and sort out the data from the chip deduction and think about the next direction.

Since he chose the Flame Specialization, his sense and manipulation of other lineage elemental particles have become weaker and weaker, but the power of fire sorcery has once again had room to rise.

Whether it was the distance of the flame jump, the splash damage of the lava fireball, or the power of the central area of the fire core explosion, it had reached the limit of what his current mental power could withstand. The fire core melt explosion has a fire damage of up to 115 points, which makes him also one of the best in the team of Tier 1 wizards, while the witchcraft attacks of ordinary wizards mostly hover between 80 and 100, and there are only a handful of them who can break a hundred.

As the chip mastered more and more knowledge of witchcraft, a prototype of a fire-based witchcraft system was established in the database. As the otherworldly runes were cracked and integrated one after another, Grim also vaguely spied on the way and direction to continue self-strengthening.

According to the statistics of the chip, in the past battles, Grim's utilization of its own resources has been at an inefficient level. Whether it was the power of fire-based sorcery or the skyrocketing physical fitness brought about by the transformation of the fire demon, Grim never used them to the extreme.

On the contrary, it is in a state of extreme waste!

Whether you want to go the ranged elemental wizard route, or go the melee combat, sorcery-assisted route, or both, make different choices depending on the enemy.

To date, Grim has not developed a proven combat model. More often than not, it is completely by virtue of the extravagant use of its own resources, and it crushes and defeats the other party with an overly powerful physical advantage!

It's okay to use it occasionally when you have the upper hand, but if you encounter an enemy who is superior to you in the future, you will only hurt yourself by a wild boar's rambling. So taking the opportunity of this strength reshuffle, Grim also wanted to determine a few core witchcrafts for himself, and then build his own way of fighting around these core witchcrafts.

Based on his countless combat experiences, Grim understands the importance of mobile sorcery to a combat wizard. So when it comes to identifying core sorcery, the first thing that comes to Grim's mind is to use the most frequent fire jumps.

To put it mildly, if it weren't for the ability of Flame Jumping, I'm afraid that Grim wouldn't have even a chance of surviving the last few battles. It was precisely because of the flame jump, when encountering those powerful enemies, that Grim would not be forced by the other party to fight to the death.

So if any tactics need to be arranged, I'm afraid everything can only be done around the flame jump.

Mobile sorcery is already there, but what about attack sorcery?

There was a time when Grim thought that his core attack sorcery should be a fire core melting. Because of all the fire attack witchcraft, it has the most powerful attack effect. However, judging from the statistics from the chip, the most frequently used fire-based sorcery in battle by Grim turned out to be the summoning lava fireball.

With Grim's current fire-based abilities, it only takes 1/2 of a second to condense a lava fireball. However, considering the frequency of shocks that his mental power can withstand, and the speed of elemental condensation also has its threshold, he can still do it by summoning 2 lava fireballs in 3 seconds!

The lava fireball itself has 45 degrees of fire elemental damage, plus about 15 degrees of lava burst physical damage, and also comes with a magma splash that sweeps over a radius of 10 meters. Combined with the 30% bonus to fire damage obtained by Grim after choosing the Fire Mastery, the attack power of the lava fireball has reached a terrifying 60 degrees.

This attack strength is indeed lower than the damage of up to 115 degrees of fire core melt explosion, but it can't withstand the speed of lava fireball excitation!

In the heat of battle, where to find a safe area where you can calmly chant incantations and slowly guide those large sorcery?

Even if you really need powerful sorcery to break through the opponent's defenses in battle, Grim has 6 pre-stored powerful sorcery in the voodoo scroll to use, so he doesn't have to risk being hit by the enemy to do it himself.

Therefore, the first wave of core sorcery was determined to have 3 core sorcery, mobile fire jumping, offensive lava fireballs, and defensive fire enchantments.

There's also a reason why you chose Fire Enchantment over Lava Shield for Defending against Sorcery!

In terms of physical defense, the Flame Enchantment may be inferior to the Lava Shield a lot, but when it comes to both offense and defense, the damage effect of the Flame Enchantment is simply more than three avenues of the Lava Shield.

The flame barrier that shrouded a range of almost 100 meters made it difficult for any enemy to easily step into this area when fighting Grim. Otherwise, the fire damage of nearly ten degrees per second is endless, and as long as you are within the range of the flame barrier, you will never be able to get rid of it.

And as Grim unifies the three core sorcery into one system and tailors a set of tactics around them, there is room for the combat potential of the three sorcery to continue to improve.

However, while Grim was busy and nervously calculating the three core witchcraft models that could be optimized and modified, there was a knock on the wooden door of the room.

Knock knock.

"Who!"

Being disturbed at the most critical time, Grim's mood certainly can't be too good.

"Lord Grimm, it's me!" came the voice of the wizard of Angus outside the door.

Grim hesitated for a moment, briefly sorted out the information on the table, covered up the parchment that involved his secrets, and then came to the door, removed the witchcraft protection, and opened the wooden door.

The Angus wizard, who had come to visit late at night, had an ugly face and looked like he wanted to say something.

"Your Excellency Angus, after this journey, we can already be regarded as friends. Is there anything that friends can't talk about?" Grim saw his embarrassment and took the initiative to ask.

"This ......" Angus couldn't help but hesitate for a moment, and finally spoke: "I just got a message from the family, this puppet competition may be in trouble!"

"What happened?"

"The wizard of the family that challenged us actually created an Iron Knight, and I heard that the power is amazing, and he has already defeated the wizards sent by the two trading houses. Now the family is in chaos......"

Grim's eyes froze: "You plan to sue for peace with each other?"

Angus nodded with difficulty and said astringently, "Very likely." The family has already secretly sent someone to contact the other party, if the other party's conditions are not too harsh, the family may give up this competition and directly admit defeat!"

Seeing the thoughtful look on Grim's face, Angus hurriedly comforted: "Your Excellency, don't worry, even if this competition can't be carried out, the reward promised to you by our family will also be fulfilled." I can still call the shots on this matter!"

Grim shook his head and laughed, "That's not what I'm worried about. Instead, he regretted that he had lost an opportunity to communicate with other mystical wizards. ”

Angus smiled dumbly and said, "When you get to Sky City, you still have to worry about this problem?" Although the battle for shops is only fought once every 10 years, the arena there has not been idle for a day. As long as you have confidence in your puppet, and you are willing to take out the bet, you can soak in the arena every day!"

After that, the two chatted a few more words, and Angus took his leave.

After sending Angus off, Grim sat back down at the table, unable to help but silently conspire.

According to the original plan, he wanted to help the Byron family win the game, and then leave Kirby there to be taken care of by the other party. After all, it is impossible for him to stay in Sky City for a long time, and Kirby, an alien goblin, has almost zero chance of staying here alone to work hard.

If the expected Upanisham was canceled, and the other party paid the promised reward in advance, it would be reckless and abrupt for him to make such a request.

At that time, what kind of way to keep Kirby in Sky City?

You know, there are second-order wizards in the Byron family! Even such a force can hardly save their face in Sky City, and how can a wizard-level goblin with no combat ability survive in this land of tigers and wolves?

The more he thought about it, the more Grim felt reckless.

After all, he is now just alone, and the two nominal subordinates, one of whom only has the strength of a quasi-witch, and is also facing a "battle of fate" with an uncertain future. The other has wizard-level spiritual power, but he doesn't have any combat ability.

When it came to employing people, the two of them couldn't do anything.

He is also in the rising stage of strength now, and he needs to gather all his strength and resources to carry them forward and grow well. Instead of throwing around like you would in Go, paving the way in advance.

If your own power is small in the future, you may be able to do this to make your door more open and accessible. But now, instead, I should retract all the fingers that stretched out and clench them into fists, so that every punch I throw out is more powerful!
