Age of Adepts

Chapter 28: Trial task

Views:

Greem now needs time to grow.

Although he firmly believes that with the help of biochips in his two lives, the improvement of his individual ability will never be weaker than those talented geniuses, but it takes time for him to grow. Just like a cub needs time and space to grow up, even if Greem has wings, his growth still needs a lot of time and resources.

Right now, he is in the weak stage of strength, if he can find a senior apprentice to take shelter, it will undoubtedly be of great benefit to his growth. Therefore, for the wings that Mary took the initiative to spread, he was willing to ask for it.

However, this kind of protection is not unilateral. To a certain extent, Greem also wants to show his own value, trying to make this "relationship" closer to an alliance rather than a refuge.

He briefly dealt with Simba's head in his hand. If Greem read it correctly, Simba's soul still remained in this head. If he didn't deal with it in time, his spoils would fade a lot.

In any case, this is a hag leader who is strong enough to match a senior apprentice. Taking it back is a good witchcraft material, whether it is for soul experiments or voodoo rituals.

There were 3 outsiders who broke into the magic swamp. Although Alice was not killed, she was bled. That arrogant guy, I'm afraid he will peel off his skin even if he doesn't die at this moment. As for the other two, Crazy Girl and Hawkeye have already dealt with them, so it's not Greem's turn to worry about them.

And Mary, who was obviously more interested in the blood of the other two outsiders, turned into a vampire bat and rushed into the mist without saying hello to Greem. As for Greem, he could only sneak back to the wizard's high tower with a wealth of spoils and a whole body of fright.

...

Countless blurred lights and shadows swayed in front of her eyes, and the strong sense of spatial dizziness made it difficult for her to distinguish between east, west, north, and west.

However, relying on the perception of space in her original talent, Alice struggled to break free from the wrapping of the void storm, opened a space crack, and returned to the original world.

In the void, a crack in space opened up, and Alice fell out with her head down.

Boom...

oops!

Alice, who had almost lost all her strength, slammed her head against the hard and cold stone slab, and the severe pain made her unable to bear the pain.

Damn bastard, damn vampire, don't let me regain my strength. I want to heal my wounds, I must...

Alice, who was cursing and complaining crazily in her heart, suddenly stopped her movements, opened her single eye wide, and looked at the terrifying figure in front of her in horror. Intense fear gathered in her heart, making her no longer dare to act rashly.

Alice glanced around in confusion, only to realize that she was in a dark and closed stone room. This was not an escape point she had set up for herself in advance, and the person standing in front of her was not any wizard apprentice she was familiar with.

Look at the other party's thin and dry body, look at the other party's signature gray wizard robes and high hats, look at the other party's sinister and weird smile...

Alice finally couldn't help exclaiming: "Wizard Anderson!"

The skinny old man in the pestle stand is the owner of the swamp tower, the first-order wizard Anderson.

And he undoubtedly has the highest management authority of the swamp tower. Therefore, the space teleportation used by Alice to escape for the last time was unsurprisingly modified by him, allowing this little loli who had suffered so much to teleport herself directly in front of him.

The horror of a real wizard is definitely beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

Seriously speaking, from the beginning of the apprenticeship period, many wizard apprentices have already begun to deeply transform their bodies. In their eyes, whether they are fit or not, or whether they are handsome or not, is far less important than whether they are strong or not.

If someone came forward to do the statistics, they would find that in the Swamp Tower, among the more than 50 wizard apprentices, less than half of them were purely human.

Bloodline transformation, biological transformation, witchcraft pollution and mutation... These are the most direct consequences of their efforts to become stronger. The boundary between human and non-human is actually not so obvious in the wizarding world.

This is true even for wizard apprentices. Compared with them, official wizards whose life essence has been significantly sublimated have pushed the transformation of their physical bodies to the limit.

Can endure the cruel and painful transformation process, can endure the long and lonely knowledge exploration, and can use all means to make himself stronger. How can a wizard who has experienced all kinds of hardships and struggled have any kind-hearted people

When it comes to wizards in the wizarding world, people's most intuitive impressions are powerful, sinister, evil, and cold. Although they claim to be servants of knowledge, they are always walking on the road of collecting knowledge, but the way they acquire knowledge is absolutely not benevolent and peaceful.

As a rare large-scale plane in the entire multiverse, the wizarding world inevitably enslaved thousands of small and medium-sized planes. They frantically extract resources and knowledge from those defeated planes to arm and strengthen their strength. A wizard family without its own private plane might not even be considered the last in the wizarding continent.

And those who are at the forefront of conquests in the world of wizards are wizards armed to the teeth. And a first-tier wizard like Anderson is nothing more than the lowest level of cannon fodder in the vast battlefield of plane conquest.

That's right, the lowest combat unit of the conquest army in the world of wizards is the first-order wizard. As for wizard apprentices, these rookies who can't even adapt to the laws of the plane are not even qualified to be cannon fodder.

So the more wizards she has experienced and seen, the more Alice is in awe of them.

Although her spatial talent is already considered the ultimate natural talent, in front of these official wizards, she is still just a canary that can be easily crushed to death. In the wizarding world, talent only represents your potential, not your strength. For thousands of years, are there still few geniuses who have tragically died in a dark corner

So when Alice realized that she was facing an official wizard, she immediately restrained all her pride and arrogance. Waiting for the interrogation of the other party.

"I'm in a bad mood today, because a few bugs slipped into my garden while I was doing an experiment. Why, little guy from Fanny's Cottage, who gave you the order to break into my territory? There was no emotion on Wizard Anderson's dark face, and even Alice couldn't help shivering in his cold tone.

"Dear Wizard Anderson, my mentor, Lord Deborah, asked me to come here to deliver a letter to you." Alice did not dare to neglect, and hurriedly stated her intention.

"That crazy woman Deborah?" Anderson frowned suspiciously: "You are the genius apprentice Deborah accepted 3 years ago! What, you want to come to me to practice your skills when you have a little ability? Jie Jie Jie... Little girl, didn't your instructor tell you that I hate being disturbed the most? By the way, those two little bugs also belong to Fanny's Cottage?"

Alice bowed tremblingly and stood upright. Hearing the words, she quickly replied: "No, we met on the outskirts of the swamp, and we all came here after receiving the mission. One of them is from the Mandasso Academy, and the other is from the Black Hand Association."

"Mission? Did you come to my magic swamp after accepting the mission?"

"Yes, we all took the test task in our respective organizations before taking the liberty to break into this place!"

"Damn it, damn it... I knew those damn guys from Sanlin Tower would not let this place go. This is a magic swamp! This is my private domain, and those bastards turned this place into a mission point. Next I'm sure to report their damn behavior to the committee at a wizarding meeting..."

Maybe he was poked in some sore spots, and the already crazy wizard Anderson became even more crazy, and he cursed viciously at some guys in the distance at the top of his voice. Cursing to the point of excitement, Anderson even changed seven or eight languages one after another, and Alice could understand or recognize only three.

After scolding to the fullest, Wizard Anderson abruptly closed his mouth, and once again stared at Alice with gloomy eyes.

"For the sake of your reverence, I won't keep you. But you broke into my garden and wreaked havoc, and you can't go without punishment. This will be a lesson for you!" Lightly tap the magic staff, a little green glow suddenly flew into Alice's empty right eye socket.

At the same time, a strange ring appeared at Alice's feet, and after a few flashes of magic magic, a flash of light flashed, and Alice disappeared into the stone room.

Almost at the same time as Alice was forcibly teleported away, the same teleportation halo appeared under the two wizard apprentices who were still rampaging in the depths of the swamp. With a flash of light, they were expelled from the magic swamp.

...

Entrance to the Magic Swamp.

This is a desolate and desolate hillside.

Stretching in front of it is the magic swamp shrouded in thick mist. Looking into it from afar, apart from the potholed swamp pools, there are thorny shrubs growing in disorder and wormwood like a ghost's head. There is nothing surprising.

After a dazzling flash of light, Alice fell to the ground again.

Before she got up from the ground, white light flashed, and two familiar figures appeared in her sight.

Alice grunted and stood up, hurriedly took out various bottles and cans from her waist pocket, and began to work hard to recover from her injuries. Although this place has left the magic swamp, she still dare not complain to the wizard.

Who knows if that damn wizard has the means to keep watching them. Once he hears some bad words, I'm afraid I really don't want to leave here.
