Age of Adepts

Chapter 190: Reinforcements arrive

Views:

The wizard camp after the victory was extremely busy.

Flapping their wide wings, the pterosaur knights rose and fell in the center of the camp, sending back the captured demon hunter knights one after another. As soon as these fine trophies entered the camp, they were sent to the laboratory of wizard Korgan, and what awaited them was a terrible nightmare that he had never experienced in his life!

Greem actually saw the figure of the native boy again in the busy queue. He is now the right-hand man of Wizard Korgan, helping to do some auxiliary work in the transformation of witch beasts.

Seeing Greem's return, Korgan, who was counting the fresh "materials" one by one, handed over the work to the young man, and strode over.

"You did a good job this time! Even Lord Sarubo mentioned your name just now, it seems that Lord has been paying attention to you!" Korgan couldn't help but pat Greem on the shoulder and encouraged loudly.

It can be heard that Wizard Korgan feels awe and admiration from the bottom of his heart for Lord Sarubo.

However, when he thought that any of his actions in this wizard camp would be sensed by the huge and detailed mind of Lord Sarubo, Greem couldn't help but stand on end with chills. However, in the face of Wizard Korgan's initiative to get close, he could only try to squeeze out some kind responses, and even chose to turn a blind eye to the bloody handprint on his shoulder.

"Why is that little guy still alive?" Greem asked curiously.

The last time Greem threw this boy to Korgan, he thought he would find his shadow on the body of a witch beast next time he came back!

"We are here to gain a long-term foothold, so the native puppet is also necessary. His talent is not bad. As long as he is transformed by us, he can become one of the best spellcasters in this plane. At that time, many things will be resolved by him." It's much better than us doing it ourselves." There was a sinister smile on Kogan's stern face.

"How about the resources in this plane? How much benefit can it bring us?"

"Analyzing from the current data, the ones with the greatest strategic value in this plane are white star calla lily, dragon grass, emperor's blood grass, sea soul star, void stone and breeding flower."

"There are void stones and breeding flowers in this plane?" Greem had an incredulous expression on his face.

Any material plane is basically developed from an inconspicuous half-plane, and every step forward takes tens or even hundreds of thousands of years. Therefore, in the long time of its growth and gestation, the interior of the plane most likely included those void stones floating from the depths of the star sea.

And the Void Stone is one of the main materials for building the teleportation wizard array.

Even in the resource-rich world of wizards, this kind of thing is a top-level strategic resource that high-level wizards try their best to control, and it is difficult for ordinary wizard families to get involved.

As for breeding flowers, that's another interesting thing.

It is a special plant, and it is also a special witch medicine.

Using breeding flowers as the main material, alchemists can concoct a mysterious potion, allowing those powerful wizards to give birth to normal offspring. You know, in the history of wizard development, it has become quite difficult for high-level wizards above level 2 to give birth to offspring.

One side is a high-level wizard, and the other side is an ordinary human being. The chances of giving birth to normal offspring are extremely difficult. If both parties are high-ranking wizards, the chances of success are even worse.

After all, in the process of repeated advancement of the group of wizards, the degree of body transformation and mutation is comparable to that of monsters, and it is also a chaotic and disordered natural mutation. Therefore, despite the fact that most of the high-ranking wizards still maintain their human form, a closer look at the origin of their bodies shows that they have little connection with humans.

There are also many high-level wizards who have mutated more thoroughly, and may even have mutated their souls beyond recognition. Therefore, the chances of such a high-level wizard male and female being combined to give birth to a normal human baby are almost zero.

To be honest, the chances of them giving birth to monsters are higher than the chances of giving birth to human babies!

So why does the wizard family attach so much importance to the continuation of the family bloodline, and even encourage those low-level wizards to leave bloodlines to the family earlier? This is the main reason!

Once some talented wizards appear among the descendants of those big families, the family will take the initiative to collect all kinds of beauties, or the opposite sex of some strange races for their enjoyment without even having to bother to find them. .

This is not only a kind of welfare, but also a means for the continuation of the family blood!

It is against this background that any means or drugs that can assist in reproduction have become the hottest and rare resource among high-level wizards. The breeding flower is such a magical plant, which can perfectly integrate the excellent life factors of both parents to give birth to a baby with a powerful wizard talent.

As for whether the baby is still in the human category, no one actually cares!

Therefore, the traces of breeding flowers were found in this humble knight plane, which will undoubtedly bring huge plane benefits to the Sarubo family. And as the tide rises, their heroes who have opened up new dimensions will inevitably receive huge rewards from the family.

Veteran wizards may not care about these rewards, but for a new wizard like Greem who has just advanced and has no family background, it means that he will no longer have to go out to collect resources for a hundred years.

Without the pressure of promotion, Greem has at least two hundred years of leisure time to slowly accumulate knowledge of witchcraft and slowly study his future development direction.

After chatting with Korgan for a few more words, Greem just returned to the row of stone houses and found a random room to close the door to rest. This time in the battle of blocking the valley, from the initial lure to the mid-term defensive counterattack to the final full-scale counterattack, he participated in the whole process and played a mainstay role.

Correspondingly, it is a huge amount of mental consumption and countless mental "trauma". These losses will not recover by themselves, and can only be repaired by a long sleep!

Anyway, after encircling and annihilating those witcher knights, there will be no hidden dangers around the wizard camp that could threaten them, and at least it will be quiet and stable for a while! As for when the next batch of enemies will appear, that's beyond Greem's control.

So after realizing this, Greem let go of everything, summoned the lightning giant to protect him, and fell into the deepest sleep while lying on the stone bed.

While he was asleep, Mary also returned to the camp and brought back the shriveled corpses of two law-breaker knights. Although there was not much leftover value to be extracted from such spoils, Wizard Korgan was still very happy to accept it.

After all, compared with Entik, Mary still brought back something, but Entik didn't even have a mummy left. However, behind him was a group of weird black beetles with heads the size of a washbasin, about twenty-one in number, which looked like his latest harvest.

Wizard Korgan is indeed a veteran wizard who has been promoted for two or three hundred years, but he quickly judged these black beetles by their strange appearance, they are a group of carrion beetles! Although they are only young creatures, they still possess a terrifying strength.

The carrion beetle can also be regarded as a kind of scary monster that lives in groups.

They have a hard shell that is not inferior to that of a body-refining wizard, they can fly, they can burrow into the ground, and they rely on sharp fangs and sharp limbs to attack enemies. Mature carrion beetles also have excellent magic resistance, and it is difficult for witchcraft attacks below 100 degrees to damage their bodies.

The combination of these advantages is enough to make the carrion beetle swarm a target that official wizards dare not easily provoke.

The scorpions that Entik used to feed with flesh and spirit power were too poor in quality to support him, and they were not suitable for battles between wizards. But now the appearance of the carrion beetle larvae marks that Entik has finally raised the evil swarm to a level that matches his wizard level.

When these carrion beetles passed their juvenile stage and began to mature one after another, then Entik would become an important and terrifying figure in the ranks of level 1 wizards!

Mary lingered outside Greem's resting door for a while, then gritted her teeth and left.

A whole brigade of demon hunter knights was destroyed here. If the news is not blocked as soon as possible, the entire Dulan province may explode. That's why Mary hurried back to Lanqiu City, using her dark power there to nip all possible disasters in the bud.

And Entik, who also shouldered an important mission, did not stay in the camp for long before getting into the forest. He needs to set up swarm traps as soon as possible at all key intersections into the mountain to avoid accidental leakage of news.

There are two mountain villages and a small town on the edge of the Greenland forest, and he only took down one Kocal village. In case hunters or adventurers in the remaining villages and towns break into the battlefield and find something, then the cover-ups made before will become meaningless.

It just so happened that the batch of carrion beetle larvae he had just hatched urgently needed a lot of blood to nourish them, so this time he sneaked out of the camp, Entik had already made up his mind to take down the remaining villages and towns. This not only blocked the source of possible leaks, but also improved one's own strength in a disguised form, so why not do it!

...

This deep sleep took Greem four days!

Originally, he didn't want to wake up so early, but the strange energy fluctuations around him made it difficult for him to sleep, so he had to wake up early.

As soon as he opened his eyes, Greem sensed a strong spatial fluctuation.

This spatial fluctuation is so familiar and unforgettable, Greem judged its nature almost instantly.

Cross-plane ultra-long-distance teleportation!

The last time they were brought from the Sarubo family's half-plane barrier was this kind of ultra-long-distance trans-plane transmission. That teleportation tormented Greem half to death, and his memory is still fresh!

But as soon as he understood the nature of space fluctuations, Greem fell into deep confusion.

According to Wizard Korgan's instructions, the second batch of reinforcements should arrive in a month's time! But now... Greem looked at the reminder of the chip, and it was only 18 days, 11 hours, 33 minutes and 31 seconds since they came to this knight plane.

The doubt in Greem's heart just rose, and it turned into a sneer immediately.

Sure enough, he is worthy of being a level 6 great wizard who plays tricks on people's hearts!

It was said in advance that it was one month, but the real time required was only 18 days. In this way, even if Greem and the others had malicious intentions or were accidentally caught by the local natives, the information they leaked would not have much impact on the follow-up actions due to severe distortion.

I'm afraid even Kogan has been fooled by the projection of Master Sarubo's consciousness!
