Feidnan City, Wizard Tower.
In a magic chamber shrouded in clouds and mist, a small elemental fire pool was steaming.
Greem soaked in it quietly, closed his eyes and meditated.
There is no natural volcanic magma pool for him to cultivate in the wizard's tower. Even the huge fire element gathered in the 7-meter-long, 5-meter-wide, and 1-meter-deep pool in front of him was also extracted from the energy room at the bottom.
If you want to maintain the existence of this elemental fire pool stably for a long time, you need to consume 17% of the elemental energy that the Wizard Tower can gather every day. If one considers the need to purify the elemental energy into pure fire elements, then this small pool needs to take up 31% of the wizard tower's daily energy reserves.
Converted into magic crystals, it is about 120 magic crystals per day.
And this is enough to hire a prospective witch to accompany you on a jungle adventure!
But here, it is just to create a more comfortable cultivation environment for Greem.
Greem lightly picked up the hot and churning crimson flame, splashed it onto his chest, and then felt the warmth left by the flame slowly falling down. The billowing hot air soaked in the fire slurry permeated his skin and pores, and penetrated into his body and mind bit by bit, making Greem feel extra relaxed and comfortable.
These tumbling and boiling crimson flames are naturally not real magma, but liquid fire formed after the fire element is enriched to a certain extent. It is not as viscous and thick as natural magma, but it is pure enough.
The long dark red hair was scattered behind her back, and one end was obviously submerged in the crimson crystal fire, but there was no sign of burnt. On the contrary, wisps of dark red fireflies will diffuse from the fire slurry, which will be gradually absorbed by the long hair.
Absorbing enough fire elements, Greem's long dark red hair became more and more lustrous. As the fireflies flickered, it was filled with an evil and strange smell!
And as Greem meditated deeply, a massive amount of fire element poured into his body and mind, frantically washing every meridian, every bone, every tendon, every trace of flesh and blood in his body... The strong fire element breath occupied It occupied every inch of space in his body, forcing the evil aura from the abyss to have nowhere to hide, it could only turn into wisps of black smoke, and then melt into the air little by little.
As the "gut of the world", the abyss world of the lower realm has always been a very scary place.
There are endless demons there, cruel, bloody, twisted, evil, chaotic... For demons, you can add all negative words to them, and you will never wrong them. These huge monsters possess terrifying power, they are keen to kill, and indulge in the thrill of destruction and destruction.
What's even more frightening is that the twisted and evil hearts bestowed on them by the abyss world make them never feel guilty about killing and destroying.
Other evil races in the multiverse may kill for survival, territory, resources, and dignity, but they kill purely for evolution, and more often, they even kill for entertainment or pure killing!
Therefore, the Balrog Heart transplanted by Greem inevitably incorporated too much ugly, evil and chaotic abyssal atmosphere. When Greem coveted the powerful power and continuous flame energy brought by the Balrog's Heart, the will of the distant abyss also poured a trace of its own breath into Greem's heart through the Balrog's Heart.
Seriously, this looks like a fair deal!
What Greem got was a powerful heart capable of supporting Balrog's transformation, but what he lost was the part of his heart that was about humanity.
But the process is gradual and slow.
Although the invasion of the abyss breath is inevitable, it can also sharpen his will deeply.
As a wizard with profound knowledge and wise mind, Greem is more willing to take everything under his own control. So during the few days when he returned to Feidnan City, he was almost immersed in the pool of elemental fire, trying his best to wash away the influence of the abyssal breath on him.
The reason why wizards are powerful lies in the accumulation of knowledge and the intelligence of their minds. Once they are infected by the breath of the abyss and become lunatics who only know how to kill, then they will be useless!
So as long as Greem is not stupid, he will never allow himself to degenerate into a demonic creature.
After completing a meditation, Greem sensed a message just as his mental power exited from the meditation space. Reach out and pop out a red rune, break into the control hub in the center of the secret room, and the door of the secret room will open.
Although the door of the secret room was opened, a dense red light film blocked the escape of the heat inside.
Entering was Senior Apprentice Amn.
He held a metal tray completely made of magic iron alloy in his hand, and it was filled with bottles and jars of different sizes, colors, and shapes.
Amu is also a physique that is compatible with the fire element, so here he is like a fish in water, every pore on his body can't wait to open it to the maximum, breathing desperately here is rich and substantial like fire element. However, in order to keep his clothes from being ignited by the terrifying high temperature, Amn could only hold up a shield, which unfortunately kept most of the fire elements out.
Even with the strength of Amn's senior apprentice, he dared not approach the elemental fire pool only ten steps away.
He could see clearly that one meter in front of him, the terrifyingly high temperature had made the air blurred and distorted. A trace of strange red light slowly drifted in mid-air, seemingly harmless, but the core temperature had reached a frightening 3000 degrees.
At such a temperature, I am afraid that even wearing enchanted armor will be roasted into coke in an instant!
Amidst the sound of rushing water, Greem's body was mostly immersed in the crimson tumbling pool of elemental fire, and he couldn't help stirring the flames on himself. With every movement of his, the temperature of the steaming air became even more astonishingly high. Even if he didn't deliberately deploy the flame barrier, a high-temperature barrier has naturally formed around the elemental fire pool.
Amn looked up enviously at Greem who was playing "Fire", then silently swallowed.
Although he is also a fire-friendly physique, if he is thrown into the elemental fire pool, he will be instantly vaporized by the terrifying high temperature inside. To be honest, only those wizards who have turned their bodies into elements can enjoy the fun of bathing in the elemental fire pool.
But for others, it was no less than a murder!
"My lord, this is the potion sent by Wizard Ferrier."
In order to further remove the residual abyssal breath in his body, Greem could only turn to Ferrier, who was a pharmacist. And he still needs to last half a month for such painful days.
"How is Alice? Who is there to take care of her?" Greem asked.
"It's Linna. According to her, the power of petrification in Alice's body has almost dissipated, and she is recuperating at Wizard Ferrier's. It is estimated that she will be able to get out of bed and walk in five days..." Amn replied respectfully.
Greem gave a soft "um" and stopped speaking, but he also received a witchcraft message from Korgan in his mind.
The two talked for a while through the spiritual channel.
When the spiritual channel was cut off, Greem put his arms on the edge of the pool and lay on his back in the pool of fire. He couldn't help thinking to himself, "Counterattack? Distribution of benefits? It seems that Lord Sanaza has acquiesced in my participation." Get some benefits! Anyway, sooner or later, I will pull up my own faction and build my own wizard tower outside, so I will take advantage of this opportunity... "
...
Fandil City.
This is a bustling small city belonging to the Seaman family in the Rashia region.
And three miles to the west of the city, Willwick Castle is the private residence of the Shark wizard in the Seaman family.
On weekdays, this place is the favorite place for all the nobles and ladies in the small town of Fandier to hang around. At night, the entire castle is brightly lit, and luxury carriages gather in the square in front of the gate. All dignitaries who claim to have some status will be proud to be invited by the wizard, and come here to drink and party all night.
However, as the bad news of Wizard Sark's tragic accident came back, the place suddenly became deserted.
The gate of the castle, which is almost never closed, has been locked tightly. Nearly a hundred servants, waiters, butlers, and guards are hiding in their respective rooms, anxiously waiting for the unknown fate.
And in a bedroom of the three-story main building of the castle, two young men, a man and a woman, were talking nervously.
"Celia, you have to leave now..." The young man was dressed in aristocratic youth clothing, with an anxious expression on his face, and kept running back and forth in the house: "We must not wait for someone from the family to come. Grandpa Sark is dead. His direct blood descendants will definitely be implicated."
The young man suddenly stopped in front of the girl, grabbed her shoulders, and shook her lightly: "Be sober! I heard that the family no longer intends to help Grandpa Sack take revenge, but wants to hand us over to settle this matter." .So if you don't want to be a slave, you must get out of here quickly... "
"No... no..." It was a girl with a delicate face who spoke. At this moment, she frowned deeply, her face full of panic and confusion.
And some faint gray dark spots can be vaguely seen near the parotid glands on both sides of her face.
If a wizard from the Seaman family were here, it would be obvious that this was a sign that the girl had awakened the blood of the giant snake. As her body grows step by step, when her blood is thick enough to support the manifestation of her talent, her head will gradually evolve into a striking snake head like an orthodox giant snake wizard.
However, the young girl was already fifteen or sixteen years old, and only at this time did she show a sign of her bloodline awakening. In the Seaman family, she was already considered a type of person with low bloodline talent and potential. Even so, the initial awakened blood power still endowed the girl with strength not weaker than that of senior apprentices.
It's just that compared with those senior apprentices who have been tempered for a long time, she is obviously not able to skillfully control the power in her body!
As for the two direct blood descendants left in the world as the Sark wizard, the girl's bloodline talent potential is very low. And her elder brother, who was a few years older than her, did not show any signs of awakening of blood talent at all, and was just an ordinary person through and through.
