A half silver metal mask covered the left half of her face, and the left eye under the mask shone with a scarlet light. When the eyeballs turned, a strange mechanical sound could be faintly heard.

After scanning the powerful elements, Greem was surprised to find that nearly 1/3 of the opponent's body organs had been replaced by special mechanical creations.

"It turned out to be you! Sabrina..." Greem quickly matched the figure in front of him with someone in his memory: "I remember that you are from the Tracy family in the Woodrow area. The Lovis area is coming?"

A bitter smile appeared on the face of this mechanical girl with quasi-shaman status, and she seemed unwilling to talk more: "My lord, I hope to join your team!"

Since she didn't know whether Greem was planning to conceal her identity, Sabrina didn't dare to say his name.

A prospective witch wishing to join

Greem took out a small cloth bag from his pocket, and lightly threw it to the Lowe sword and shield warrior.

"This is an advance payment of 50 magic crystals. Buy all the supplies you need tonight, and we will set off early tomorrow morning!" Greem turned his head to look at Sabrina: "Come with me!"

The faces of the adventurers downstairs showed joy.

As soon as she sat down in the room, Sabrina, who was wearing a traveler's cloak, walked in slowly.

Her body was extremely heavy, and the floor of the wooden building under her feet creaked.

"Tell me! Have you caused any serious trouble? Otherwise, why would you be injured and not treated!" Greem casually leaned the 'Destroying Flame' against the table, on the only chair Stretched comfortably.

"You have already seen it, so I won't hide it." Different from the high spirits when she was in the dark crypt, Sabrina looked extremely decadent at this time.

In Greem's elemental vision, Sabrina's life fluctuated disorderly and weak, and her mental power was quite sluggish, looking like she was seriously injured.

"Master Greem, I am being hunted down by people in my family!"

"Being hunted down by people in my own family?" Greem couldn't help but have a playful expression on his face: "I'd like to hear about that!"

The right half of Sabrina's face is a beautiful face, and the smile on it at this moment is so bitter.

"Our Tracy family is a place that specializes in cultivating mechanical wizards. If you want to succeed in advancing, you must cultivate your own mechanical heart. Four years ago, I worked hard to cultivate and transform an excellent mechanical heart." Heart, I planned to use it to complete the promotion ceremony. But it was snatched away... "

"Sir?"

"This is the grade division of the mechanical heart within our family. It is inferior, inferior, medium, superior, excellent and perfect. The inferior is the worst. The perfect mechanical heart has only appeared once, and the superior is already The best we can do…”

"Didn't you say that the mechanical heart is unique? Why is it being snatched away?" Greem asked puzzled.

Even he knew little about the mysterious profession of mechanical wizard, and was rather curious.

"You must go through the promotion ceremony to activate the prepared mechanical heart and take over all the mechanical organs, so that you can successfully advance to the mechanical wizard. But before the promotion, the unactivated mechanical heart can still be taken away. "

"Who took your Mechanical Heart away?" Greem asked curiously.

"Local, we are descendants of Franco, the second-order wizard of the Tracy family!" Sabrina said through gritted teeth.

"Since that Lokal has already got your mechanical heart, why is he chasing you down?"

"That's because he was afraid that I still have a secret way to control that mechanical heart, so..."

Speaking of this, even without Sabrina's supplement, Greem can roughly fill in the rest of the content. Looks like it's another internal strife that's common among wizarding families!

Although this Sabrina is talented, her status is obviously not high. Maybe it's just a member of a branch of the family. Once such a guy grows up, he can easily threaten the stable rule of the family. Therefore, among the younger generation of quasi-witches, if her strength overwhelms the quasi-witches of her own family, especially when the other party has a strong background, this kind of suppression can easily happen.

But it was so serious that his mechanical heart was taken away, and he was expelled from the family to hunt him down. From this point of view, it can be seen that the Teresi family is still quite dark, allowing such a blatant internal strife to happen!

"Since you are burdened with such a big trouble, do you think I will accept you?" Greem couldn't help but sneer.

This was actually what surprised Greem the most!

In Sabrina's situation, it is impossible to get any help from the wizard. After all, helping her meant provoking a small wizard family like Teresi, who was quite capable of fighting. And since the other party can become a small wizard family, a third-level wizard is indispensable.

No wizard would think that his life was too long to offend a third-level wizard for the sake of a quasi-wizard!

"Don't worry, the third-level wizard in the family doesn't know about this at all, and he won't stand up for it. If it weren't for the second-level wizard Franco to intervene forcibly based on his own identity, I would never be left behind." Such a miserable result..." Sabrina explained eagerly.

Greem still shook his head silently.

Even if there is no third-level wizard, that second-level wizard is not something he can provoke! For me, what is the difference between the 2nd and 3rd? It's the end of being slapped to death by the other party!

"Master Greem, if you are willing to accept me, I... I am willing... to give you the news of an ancient ruin!" Finally, Sabrina made up her mind and said her only price.

"Ancient ruins?" Greem sat up straight.

"Don't you find it strange?" Now that she said it, Sabrina let go: "I'm just a member of a branch of the family, and I didn't get any rare resources. Mechanical heart?"

"You mean you borrowed the power of that ancient relic?" Greem narrowed his eyes.

"Yes!" Sabrina resolutely said: "I only explored the outermost part of the ruins, and I have gained so much. If you go there with your strength, you will definitely get more than me!"

Greem stared at Sabrina's haggard face, the blue light in the depths of his pupils couldn't help flickering.

"Chip, can you tell whether her words are true or false?"

"Drip, according to the response of the other party's electrocardiogram, it can be inferred that the authenticity of the existence of the ancient ruins is 98%, and the probability that the other party is lying is 2%...

Another: According to the other party's brain wave reaction, there are false or misleading elements in the other party's words... "

"That means that the story about the ancient ruins is true, but there are falsehoods about her getting the mechanical heart?"

"Drip, I agree with the subject's cognition!"

The communication between Greem and the chip was subtle and fast, and countless information had been exchanged in the blink of an eye. It's a pity that Alice is not here, otherwise Greem would have easily judged the truth of what the mechanical girl said!

Greem narrowed his eyes, slowly pondered, and tapped the table with his right hand lightly, creating the only sound in the silent room.

Sabrina held her breath, watching every expression on Greem's face with trepidation.

Until she saw the sneer at the corner of Greem's knife-like mouth.

"I can let you stay by my side temporarily!" Greem said slowly, "But once I find out that there is something false in what you said, I will not send you to the Tracy family, I will kill you directly !"

Sabrina's heart was slightly relieved, a joyful smile finally appeared on her face, and she hurriedly bowed to Greem.

"Go down and rest first! Remember to recuperate your injuries, we will set off together tomorrow."

"yes!"

Sabrina raised her head to take a peek at Greem, and when she met Greem's majestic gaze, she hurriedly lowered herself, and slowly closed the door and backed out.

When the room was quiet again, Greem tilted his head slightly, and said calmly, "Your Excellency, it's not very friendly for you to sneak into my room like this?"

In the corner of the room where Greem was staring, in an empty space, a vague figure gradually emerged from the air.

"I heard that a wizard came to the town, so I hurried to take a look. I didn't expect that not only your strength is far superior to ordinary people, but also your courage is far superior to ordinary people! I admire Gargamel..."

This is a dark-faced wizard. His hair has fallen out, leaving only a few sparse white hairs. He is wearing a dusty wizard robe and holds a faintly spiritual wizard staff in his left hand. The hand holding the witch's staff was dry and emaciated, with distinct joints, like ghost claws.

"Gargamel, this name is very strange, I've never heard of it! You... are here to hunt down this little girl?" Greem looked at the other party suspiciously.

If it wasn't for the fact that he didn't sense any hostility from the opponent, Greem would have already prepared a full set of protection against witchcraft. After all, it doesn't look like a good thing for a wizard to hide his body and sneak up to another wizard!

"Okay, you don't need to guess!" The wizard Gargamel showed his scorched and blackened teeth when he opened his mouth: "I have nothing to do with this little girl. I am just a wandering wizard who has been staying in this pine tower for the past six months. The town is doing some witchcraft experiments, and by the way, buying some strange items from the Black Forest... "

"Then Your Excellency is here..."

"I heard that you want to go to Blightwood Forest? Are you interested in making a big deal with the old man?" Speaking of the intention, Gargamel's eyes lit up immediately, as if he couldn't wait.

"A big one?" Greem asked suspiciously.

"Yes, yes... I hope you can help me kill a wizard-level monster..."
