Age of Adepts

Seriously speaking, the mechanical heart, the core component in the mechanical wizard's body, looks a lot like a metal-activated life with self-awareness.

Not only can it integrate the surrounding metal machinery, but it can also be completely integrated into the energy circulation system built by the human body based on flesh and veins. From this aspect, it is actually more like some kind of parasite, and it is not fundamentally different from the puppet worms created by wizards when they concoct flesh and blood puppets.

It's just that one is parasitic on the body of the test subject, and the other is parasitic on the body of the wizard.

The mechanical heart can also grow.

However, the nutrients and ingredients it needs to grow are completely different from the original skeletal system of humans, and it needs to use a lot of rare wizard resources and witchcraft materials. Moreover, the conflict between the mechanical witchcraft system and the original flesh and blood can only be delayed, but cannot be eliminated forever.

Compared with the mechanical witchcraft system, the blood and meridians of human beings are still too fragile, and even a little bit of impurities may break the original weak balance.

Since the human body is so fragile, why do those mechanical wizards prefer to delete, delete, modify and modify their flesh and blood, rather than completely create a real mechanical body for themselves?

I am afraid that this involves the original energy promotion system unique to human beings!

The activated life of all-metal structure is indeed powerful, but it is facing a difficult situation of advancing. What's more, if the human soul is transplanted into a pile of iron bumps, without the nourishment of the life energy of the flesh and blood, the soul will only wither day by day, and it will be difficult to improve itself step by step like the human body.

They are obsessed with the powerful combat ability brought by the mechanical heart, but they have to rely on flesh and blood organs to support these parts that are extremely demanding on energy. Therefore, mechanical wizards are actually looking for a balance between powerful strength and human advancement system!

However, the scruples of mechanical wizards did not exist for Greem.

He didn't intend to transform himself beyond recognition. The reason why he wanted to study mechanical wizards was purely to transform the elemental magic weapons into stronger and more aggressive ones.

After thoroughly researching Katie the Swordsman, even Greem couldn't help admiring the mechanical wizard's whimsy.

Katie Katie's mechanical eye combines many strange abilities such as low-light vision, elemental vision, and motion capture. This also indicates that she does not need to use any witchcraft to see things in the dark space as usual during the battle, and can directly see the flow of elements around the opponent's body with the "naked eyes", and can even capture the opponent's hidden and tiny tactical action...

And the metal shell of her modified brain also has the ability to amplify the intensity of thinking induction, which allows her to control those metal blade wheels like her fingers. As long as the distance is not too far, she can even control and change the attack route of the metal blade wheel with her thoughts, so as to achieve the effect of an instant attack power explosion.

As for Dao Ji Katie's body, it has undergone multiple composite mechanical witchcraft transformations, and alloy plates of various shapes are buried under the smooth and elastic skin. Whenever attacked, the most obvious metal armor outside the body is the first to suffer damage.

If the attack power exceeds the limit of the metal armor, the remaining damage will be shared by the flesh and blood body and the hidden alloy plate, and spread out through a strange vibration method.

This also makes Katie Katie's physical and elemental resistance surprisingly high, and she can completely withstand the enemy's witchcraft attack and rush to the opponent's side to start a crazy killing.

Of course, such an attack method will also leave Dao Ji Katie's body in a broken state all year round, requiring continuous replenishment. This supplement includes not only the metal defect of mechanical parts, but also the loss of flesh and blood of living organisms.

Therefore, Dao Ji Katie's daily diet must include a large amount of fresh meat and various special metal solutions!

A living human wizard who eats bloody raw meat every day and drinks pungent and unpleasant metal concoctions. The road of mechanical wizards pursuing strength is not something that ordinary people can persevere.

From the bodies of several hunted wizards, Greem also picked up a lot of high-level wizard weapons.

However, these things are all made by them in combination with their own characteristics. Greem needs to go back to the furnace and modify them if he wants to use them. However, those auxiliary witchcraft accessories can be used.

Although most witchcraft accessories have more or less physical strengthening ability, but as a human wizard, it is difficult to carry out physical or mental strengthening indefinitely.

For example, the Holy Ring of Soden worn by Greem has a +5 strength enhancement, so the 3 points of power boosted by the flame suit are covered by the Holy Ring of Soden invisibly. If Greem didn't try to temper his body and increase his upper limit of strength, then it would be impossible for him to enjoy the huge increase after the superposition of the two strengths.

Therefore, as a wizard, it is most effective and practical to find ways to improve your basic data. As for the idea of ​​building a powerful wizard with a large number of high-level wizard weapons, it is extremely naive and ridiculous.

Basically, with the 5 points of strength blessed by the Holy Ring of Soden, the rest of the witchcraft accessories that strengthen the physical strength are a bit redundant. However, the 3-point physical bonus brought by the Holy Ring of Soden left some room for Greem.

However, these vacancies were quickly filled by the physique increase of the flame suit.

In addition, Greem's spiritual power is as high as 37 points, and it seems a bit overflowing after relying on equipment to increase the upper limit of 39 points. Therefore, he could only take off one or two witchcraft accessories that increase spiritual power to reduce the load on his own spirit.

In this way, his strength, physique, and spirit reached the improvement limit of his current body at the same time, and only the agility item still had a lot of room for improvement.

"Chip, detect my current body data..."

"Hey, the detection has started... The basic data of the main body is as follows:"

"Grimm, Level 3 Advanced, Occupational Status: Elemental Sorcerer (Fire Specialization), Basic Physical Statistics: Strength 18+5 (13) Constitution 21+4 (11) Dexterity 11+1 (7) Spirit 37+2 (32 ), professional skills: Body of Flame, Body of Fire Demon, Flame Clone..."

"Physical state of the main body: serious injury...Note: The strongest upper limit that can be played at present is in the brackets!"

This kind of basic data may not be a big deal in front of those powerful high-magic species, but it is already at the first-class level among wizards of the same level.

The strength of 23 points means that he can already hold a stalemate with those second-level junior body-training wizards without losing the wind, but if he really wants to fight in close quarters, his rough fists and feet may not even touch the corners of their clothes. After all, the basic agility of 11 points is barely enough for a third-level elemental wizard, but it is a bit overpowering to play with them in close combat with short strikes and long strikes.

In the wizarding community, great power is always relative, not absolute!

Such strength and physique made Greem an extremely powerful prehistoric monster in front of ordinary people. But compared to the body-refining wizards of the same level, Greem, a prehistoric monster, can only be regarded as a little guy who hasn't lost its milk teeth.

Thinking of this, Greem shook his head lightly, put away all kinds of strange equipment spread all over the floor, then stood up and walked out of the cave.

Outside the cave is a small stone platform covered with a thick layer of scattered bones. It looks like a feeding place for a powerful monster. Standing on the platform and looking far away, you will find that this place is located in a vast green forest.

No matter which direction you look in, you will see lush and lush forests.

It's just a pity that since this place became the residence of the Plague Corps, the surrounding area has never heard the singing of birds and insects. Apart from the howling of Lin Hai who was choking, there was no other sound.

However, Greem didn't seem to care about it, and stood alone on the edge of the stone platform, closing his eyes and listening to the strange and vague voice in the distance.

What he heard was not the sound of the wind, nor the rustling of leaves, but the vague message sent back by the flame runes thousands of miles away.

"Remy..."

"exist!"

Following Greem's soft call, Remy, the plague poisonous spirit, emerged from his side silently.

"Take your Plague Troops to the east!" Greem stared into the distance with deep eyes, "Go straight to the east and destroy all the cities and towns along the way..."

"Where is the target?" Remy asked curiously.

"Jimiria City!"

"Jimiria? That's the capital of the Zambes Empire!"

"Yes, that's right there. Make the momentum bigger, but you must be careful. Remember, when you meet a fourth-level holy knight, you can give up the mission and escape. Before that, your mission is Expand the Plague Corps as much as possible, and attract the attention of the enemy..."

Remy's green eyes rolled around, and he basically understood Greem's thoughts and intentions completely.

Grinning at Greem, Remy summoned the giant plague beast, stepped up with the old poisonous woman, and rushed down the cliff with a scream.

Immediately, the ancient trees in the dense forest around the cliff trembled, their branches and leaves swayed, and groups of plague creatures ran silently, forming a terrifying wave of plague beasts in front of Greem's eyes in an instant.

When the plague creature was almost gone, Greem pulled up his hood to cover his face, turned around and strode towards the southeast.

After getting the corpse of the star beast, it stands to reason that this Envik plane has lost the meaning of exploration for Greem, and he should return to the family as soon as possible. However, considering the nourishing effect of those strange holy lights on his spiritual power, Greem still felt that it would not be too late to make a fortune.

You know, after returning to the wizarding world, Greem wants to raise his spirit from 37 points to 39 points, and it is almost impossible without two or three hundred years of effort. But here, he only needs to kill some paladins who can't pose a threat to him, so why not do it!

The reason why Remy and his Plague Corps were sent out was to contain and lure away those two hateful Tier 4 holy knights. And he just took this opportunity to kill those middle and low-level paladins, and just try to save enough holy light to advance to the fourth level.

As for his real target...it is the guy who acts as the lighthouse of Xinghai—the first-level black iron knight Catherine!
