Age of Adepts

Chapter 112: Taboo areas

Views:

Greem was terrified and deep in thought.

Vaguely, he felt that he had inadvertently broken into a dangerous field that he shouldn't have set foot in!

It is absolutely impossible for the flower spirit to absorb so many bloodline genes by relying on its own ability, so the only possibility is that these bloodline gene fragments belong to the reserve in the wizard's tower. When it was abandoned by the fallen wizards, the extremely lucky surviving Human Face Flower took the opportunity to absorb other bloodline genes, and only by accident did it grow into a wizard-level terrifying flower spirit.

You must know that due to the power of bloodline wizards and their family power, wanton stealing of wizard bloodlines is prohibited in the entire wizarding continent, and related bloodline research is also forbidden. Therefore, in a wizard's tower built by a fallen wizard, there are so many bloodline genes. Behind this... I am afraid that there is really a big secret hidden!

Greem's first instinctive guess was that the level 2 fallen wizard Pridkar was secretly conducting experiments related to blood vessel synthesis underground. This conjecture is very likely to be true! After all, research on bloodlines is still too much for a level 1 wizard.

But digging deeper, Greem couldn't help rolling his throat, and his heart was covered by a huge shadow.

Can a level 2 fallen wizard independently complete such a large-scale bloodline research

You must know that any bloodline apprentice is a high-quality resource that all major, medium and small forces compete for, and the courtesy they receive is obviously higher than that of many elemental apprentices, body training apprentices, and esoteric apprentices. If there were as many as two-digit bloodline apprentices killed or missing in the Dagon region, there would have been a storm here already.

But Greem has been here for a while, but he has never heard any news or rumors about it.

Does this mean that the level 2 fallen wizard is concealed and clever, or does it mean that some huge force is covering it up for him? But in the Dagon area, one or two small wizard families could not cover the sky with one hand, and even those large families could not do so impenetrably.

Then the only possibility...

Greem turned his head slightly, and looked in the direction of the Wizard Tower from a distance, a sense of enlightenment suddenly rose in his heart.

Perhaps only Sandi Tallinn Wizards Association has the ability to do things so seamlessly!

From this point of view, the design of this dark crypt is somewhat intriguing.

On the surface, it seems that some fallen wizards have fled underground, where they are fighting guerrilla warfare, competing with surface wizards for the rare and precious wizard resources in the underground world. But if you look at it from a higher level and perspective, it looks like a man-made conflict zone, with a sense of front-line military training in it.

And if the high-ranking wizard in charge of this area adds some selfishness to it, along with doing some hidden taboo research, it can be covered up logically. After all, there is war there, after all, there is bloodshed there, some apprentices who accidentally died in the underground world will make people feel sorry at most, but it is difficult to think of something extra.

If Greem, as the controller, only needs to put more blood apprentices here when issuing mandatory tasks, and then artificially create some conflicts, then the death of some blood apprentices will become logical and inconspicuous.

If you think about it seriously, there are as many as four bloodline apprentices in their ten-member compulsory mission team, and Mary is one of them. And so far, among the two senior apprentices who died in battle, Shila was a blood apprentice. And the magic vine girl who was killed by herself seems to be a blood apprentice.

I didn't feel anything was wrong before. Thinking about it now, blood apprentices, as the superior apprentices of the same rank, have such a high death rate here! This... This seems to be able to explain some problems.

So how would they deal with themselves, an outsider who unintentionally broke into their hidden experimental field? Quietly dispatching himself a high-risk compulsory mission, letting himself die silently underground? Or simply the person in charge did it himself and killed Greem directly? Anyway, for a middle-level apprentice with no roots and no success, no one would question a second-level wizard face-to-face about his death!

Greem silently took out the badge of the Byron family given to him by the Angus wizard from his waist pocket, and carefully pinned it on his chest. For the first time, Greem realized the great benefits of having a wizard family backing him!

...

An hour later, when Greem was holding the sleepy Mary and carrying a goblin Kirby with a big sack on his back, he had just arrived at the gate of the Wizard Tower when he was stopped by a wizard puppet.

Without any explanation, they were taken to a huge secret room on the 9th floor of the wizard tower.

This is a young wizard who is not a few years older than Greem, with a delicate and handsome face, a tall and tough body, a gorgeous wizard robe, and a pointed wizard hat, exuding a strange youthful aura.

If it wasn't for the powerful spiritual coercion hidden in the opponent's body, perhaps Greem would really have thought it was a fake disguised by a wizard apprentice. But perceiving the pure and restrained mental fluctuations, Greem felt that a sun that he couldn't look directly at rose up in front of his eyes. Under the dazzling and intense fluorescent light, he almost became blind.

Greem quickly lowered his head, bowed slightly to show his respect, and quietly released some fire particles to protect his eyes, which relieved the stinging pain from the eyeballs a little. In his arms, the sleeping Mary also seemed to sense a hint of threat, and squirmed her body uneasily, hiding her pretty face deeply in the crock of his arm.

And behind Greem, the goblin Kirby shrank into a ball in fright, lying on the ground, unable to get up again.

As a spirit monster, Kirby's intuition for danger is far more delicate and sensitive than that of humans, so he is more affected by spiritual coercion.

This is an ordinary reception room that is as simple as it is rough. The coffee table and wooden chairs are not carved at all, and the original color of the wood is still maintained.

The evil young wizard sitting on top, holding a cup of steaming hot drink in his hand and slowly sipping it is the second-level wizard who controls the wizard tower, Mr. Andre.

After all, this is a different world from the previous Earth. Although many appearances, behaviors, and living habits are similar to those in Europe in the last century on Earth, there are also huge differences. The most obvious is reflected in the first name and last name.

The Europeans on Earth in Greem's memory usually have unusually complex names and surnames to indicate their family origin. But in this world of wizards where the strong are respected, the role of the family has been weakened, and a new type of family has been formed around a certain powerful wizard.

The patriarch is usually not the strongest in the family, but just an elder in the family who is good at managing and managing the territory. But the development direction of the family is usually in the hands of those high-ranking wizards who are behind the scenes and have powerful power.

The wizard and the family are like two conjoined trees clinging to each other. When the family is strong, the family wizard becomes a vassal vine. And once the wizard becomes powerful, the family becomes an accessory of the wizard, allowing him to get whatever he wants.

Therefore, many powerful wizards don't have any surnames at all. Instead, his family is honored to be named after him, forming a reverse dependence in disguise.

Ever since Greem came to the Dark Crypt Wizard Tower on the first day, this Lord Andre's name has been familiar by heart. But with his status, how could he have the opportunity to meet such a big shot.

But today is obviously a special case!

Therefore, Greem bowed his head and waited there silently, never daring to show any disrespect.

After a long time, when he slowly drank the hot drink in the cup, Wizard Andre gently put down the cup and looked up at Greem who was standing respectfully below.

Even without raising his head, Greem could sense the scorching deep gaze. This is not to say that Wizard Andre is close to the fire element, but that the elemental energy in his eyes is too rich. When his sight is projected on Greem, the sudden increase in the concentration of the element has given him Deals some elemental damage.

That's why Greem felt like he was on fire!

"Did you go underground again recently?" Wizard Andre finally spoke.

Greem trembled slightly, lowering his head: "Yes, my lord. I just returned from the ground!"

"Is there any gain?"

Greem's head moved slightly, as if he wanted to look up, but he quickly suppressed it.

"Yes, my lord, there are some gains from this trip!"

A puzzled look appeared on Greem's drooping face. Apparently perplexed that a Tier 2 wizard would care about himself as a small mid-level apprentice. Of course, this expression was deliberately disguised by Greem!

With the strong spiritual power of a second-level wizard, the entire wizard tower is probably under the control of his pervasive perception. How could the changes on Greem's drooping face be hidden from his perception.

Play a full set!

From the moment he stepped into the wizard's tower, Greem tried his best to hypnotize himself, disguising himself as a reckless kid who knew nothing.

After all, the information I obtained before was based on the chip's powerful data collection, intelligence summary, and information analysis. Ordinary wizard apprentices want to obtain the deep secrets of Hualing, probably only with the help of the precision instruments in the alchemy laboratory.

So in order to reduce his own danger, Greem had to act like he knew nothing about the inside story!

Moreover, Greem also tested the goblin Kirby from the side, this guy knew almost nothing about the bloodline experiment. It doesn't even know how it got its strange ability.

This made Greem more determined to pretend to be stupid!
