Age of Adepts

Ice Dragon Heart, tier 4 material...

This is the dragon heart that the ice giant Nax saved before he made up his mind to transform his own soul.

It has to be said that Nax is still very careful about the parts he took off from his body. This can be seen from the ice material used to seal the heart and the method of use, all of which are high-end goods.

And the consequence of Nax's doing this is... Greem undoubtedly harvested a high-grade fourth-level witchcraft material.

It can only be witchcraft materials!

If a dragon card material such as the ice dragon heart falls into the hands of a high-level alchemist, it is very likely to process a treasure like the ice heart, which can add ice damage and deep freezing effects to the user's attack.

And if it falls into the hands of the puppeteer, it can be used as a high-grade material of the ice system to load it into a high-level construction puppet or itself, and use it as a source of power for fighting.

In addition, it can also be added to the body of alienated beasts or witches, bringing wizards an extremely powerful slave of witchcraft.

As for Greem, after the in-depth calculation of the chip, he felt that it would be more cost-effective to directly sacrifice this ice dragon heart as a fourth-level material, and use it to nourish his star beast blood.

At this level, Greem has already brought his own advantages to the extreme, and the parts that can be strengthened in all aspects have been strengthened. From now on, the growth of his strength has also entered a flat period.

There are only a few items that can effectively improve his basic strength, such as mental power, soul origin, and blood talent.

Among them, the mental strength relies on continuous deep meditation every day. Although the effect is not great, at least it is still improving slowly. In the past, deep meditation, which had immediate results, now often takes a month or two to see a slight increase.

But now with the help of the Book of Darkness, Greem can also rely on continuous reading to improve his spiritual power in addition to meditation. At this point, his progress speed is undoubtedly dozens of times faster than those ordinary fourth-level wizards.

The improvement of the original soul is a great blessing that can be met but not sought after.

According to the chip's estimation, Greem can only gather enough fire laws and use the method provided by the flame king to refine them into his own fire of laws. The moment the fire of law was ignited, it was the moment when Greem advanced to the fifth level, and the moment when his soul essence was sublimated again.

Other than that, there is no other way!

As for the third bloodline talent, there is no other shortcut for its improvement, that is, to continuously devour the flesh and blood of those high-level creatures that are rich in the aura of the law.

Those wild star beasts have been wandering in the boundless star sea all their lives, looking for every possible plane world. And their only purpose of breaking into the plane world is to devour flesh and blood, plunder souls, and then absorb the source of the plane lost from the plane world.

However, in essence, what the star beast devoured was actually those fragmented laws of the plane.

Ordinary planar creatures regard the fragments of the law as highly poisonous life, but the top-level delicacy that star beasts dream of. They can not only eat, but also digest and absorb. They can extract the corresponding law power from the broken law fragments, and distort it into a strange ability suitable for them.

The reason why star beasts are so powerful is that they belong to a typical law creature from the moment they reach adulthood, and are far higher than most planar creatures at the level of life and soul.

Therefore, if Greem wanted to improve his star beast bloodline and make the chaotic physique derived from the star beast bloodline stronger, he had to find some high-value, 'high-nutrition' biological flesh and blood to nourish him.

And the heart of the ice dragon undoubtedly fits this point!

The blood sacrifice ceremony prepared for the Feathered Serpent Dome last time was useless, but it is extremely appropriate to use it on the heart of the ice dragon this time.

However, just as Greem was carefully preparing the special items needed for the blood sacrifice ceremony in the secret room of his residence, an urgent message from the outside world forced him to stop the work at hand and retreat from the secret room.

The message is from Emelia.

With Gargamel and Emelia's familiarity with Greem, they naturally knew that he hated outside interference the most when he was living in seclusion. Therefore, Emelia actually chose this time to send an urgent message through the reserved special channel, which undoubtedly indicated that there were some very important matters outside that Greem had to deal with personally.

Therefore, as soon as Greem browsed the message, a stern look flashed across his calm face.

"...Clashes broke out on the border... Conflicts continued to escalate...The Denell family began to increase their troops...The small border town of Amman has fallen into the enemy's hands...The Scarlet Grand Duke Antonel has fallen into it..."

The Denell family...

Greem couldn't help pondering.

That is a powerful wizard family with the fourth-level witch Clara.

Since he advanced to the fourth level, his relationship with this Clara can be regarded as passable. Although there is no close connection, both sides still retain a trace of restraint and tolerance because they are both Tier 4 forces.

For nearly a hundred years, the expansion and expansion of the Crimson Family deliberately avoided the territory of the Denell Family, and even its affiliated forces did not touch it in the slightest.

Under such circumstances, the other party suddenly made an attack. Even if Greem didn't have any evidence or information, he could still smell the conspiracy in it!

It seems that the stimulation brought by Houghton School of Witchcraft and Witchcraft to some guys is still very strong, even forcing them to go from behind the scenes to the front of the stage, and they have the courage to tear their faces and fight the Crimson Clan.

Moreover, these guys also held a Grand Duke of Scarlet in their hands, which was obviously trying to provoke the anger of the Scarlet family.

Since the emergence of the huge human kingdom of the Crimson Kingdom, three kings have been replaced successively. However, there are still only five Scarlet Grand Dukes who have been publicly conferred, and they represent the five affiliated forces split from within the Scarlet Family.

Therefore, these crimson grand dukes are just ordinary human nobles, and they are nothing in the crimson family. But to the outside world, they represent the face and dignity of the Crimson family.

Since the other party detained a crimson grand duke, it was obviously this idea.

Not only made the Crimson family unable to stay out of the matter and pretended to be deaf and dumb, but it also left room for them not to completely tear their faces. Otherwise, they would have played a much higher role than the Scarlet Grand Duke by detaining a crimson level 2 wizard.

What is this Clara trying to do? Could it be that she wants to be used by a few old guys in the association to become the sharp blade against the Crimson family and against herself? Hey, they're only doing it now, don't you think it's a bit late? ...

While endlessly guessing, Greem strode towards the teleportation room.

Since these enemies did not intend to let him live in seclusion safely, it was time for the Crimson Clan to counterattack strongly. He will use the fiercest and wildest flames of witchcraft to warn those careerists and schemers that he, Greem, is not something they can provoke like clowns.

…………

Small town of Amman.

An unknown border town on the southwestern border of the Elovis region.

The burning fire has not been completely extinguished, and the billowing wolf smoke is floating over the small town, dyeing the sky gray.

The small town, which was originally quiet and simple, was dead silent at this moment, all the doors and windows on both sides of the street were closed tightly, and countless eyes full of doubts and fears were projected from the gaps between the doors and windows, secretly looking at the strange things passing through the streets of the small town. army.

This is the wizard troop belonging to the Denell family. A strong and solid apprentice wizard is riding on a tall magic horse, wearing a thick armor full of strange runes, while patrolling the streets. , while coldly scanning the residences on both sides of the street.

From time to time, they rushed into the residence, drove the residents and merchants inside to the street, and made them kneel on both sides of the road like slaves. Anyone who dares to contradict or resist will be executed immediately.

A corpse hanging on the walls and beams with nails is the only end for the rebels!

They were searching for the crimson nobles and escaped crimson wizards who hid in the small city, and all the suspects were sent to the dungeon in the city lord's mansion for custody.

And above the sky, wizards riding giant double-headed eagles circled around continuously, closely monitoring and guarding the entire small town.

And in an exquisite aristocratic manor half a mile outside the city, a large number of wizards of the Denell family came in and out here, and obviously regarded this place as their core stronghold.

The main body of the manor is a small three-story wooden building, which has been strictly protected by many witches and wizard guards.

second floor.

In a tightly guarded room.

Antonel put down the wooden window resentfully, withdrew his gaze from peering outside, and paced up and down the room anxiously.

Wizard Sterling, who was reclining on the sofa and quietly reading a witchcraft book, couldn't help but chuckled and said, "My lord, don't be irritable! Now that the matter has reached this point, it won't stop. It’s something we can stop and control.”

Antonel, who was pacing, stopped suddenly, listened to the movement in the corridor outside, and then muttered dissatisfiedly: "You can see it, but I can't do it! This time we made a mistake. I fell into the trap and fell into the hands of the Denell family, and I don't know how the family will react. Once the war breaks out..."

Both the Crimson Family and the Denell Family are well-known Tier 4 forces in the central part of the mainland, and the Crimson Family is a unique super family. Under such circumstances, if a war broke out between the two sides, the dire consequences would be unimaginable.

Even with his qualifications and status as the Grand Duke of Scarlet, he couldn't bear this heavy pressure!

As the consultant wizard hired by Antonel, Sterling is obviously much more insightful than this employer, and he said indifferently after hearing the words: "Why, Lord Grand Duke, you still think that this war is our mistake Caused?"

"Is there any other reason?"

"Hehe..." Sterling chuckled softly: "You really think highly of you and me! To tell you the truth, even if you and I are added together, you are not qualified to provoke such a wizard war. This It's a wizard war, not a secular territorial battle. The main body of this battle is not you and me, but..."

Having said that, Sterling closed his mouth, but his eyes looked northeast through the wall and the manor.

There... is the holy land of the Crimson family, and also the place where the legendary Patriarch Greem lives in seclusion!
