Under the Tree of Life, the intertwined roots looked like a series of hills and mountains.
The large hills and mountains were occupied by the buildings of the Holy Tower of Seven Rings, but some small hills had become a free market for Demon-Hunter Sorcerers.
Some Otherworld Sorcerers who returned from battle would often bring many wonderful items from the Otherworld to sell in addition to their own mission rewards, and the most common was some Otherworld Captive Slaves.
Captive slaves of Otherworld Creatures, whether it was a large-scale purchase by Stigmata Sorcerers, or the needs of some Sorcerers' experiments, or the personal character of some Sorcerers, were one of the soft currencies that did not have to worry about sales. Even when some Stigmata Sorcerers were short of funds, they would trade a large number of captive slaves and the right to use Soul Slaves.
As for a large number of captive slaves, most of them were directly purchased by other Stigmata Sorcerers.
The right to use those Soul Slaves became ordinary low-level Stigmata Friendship Keys that were circulated among Arcane Sorcerers, and became one of the trump cards of some Arcane Sorcerers.
Grimm rode on a Seven Rings bubble, floating in the air and casually glancing at the dazzling array of wonderful goods on the ground. Occasionally, he had to make way for some large Otherworld Captive Slaves, and sometimes he was attracted by some magical specialties of the Otherworld, reluctant to part for a long time.
However, to trade in such a fragmented free market, it required a Sorcerer's vision and specific value judgment. Therefore, most Sorcerers would fly over and look at the flowers on horseback. Unless it was something they were particularly interested in, very few Sorcerers would really land on the ground to try to buy and trade.
After a quarter of an hour, in front of a towering door under the gap of the Tree of Life, Grimm landed.
Pop!
The Seven Rings bubble burst, and Grimm floated in the air with his feet slightly off the ground, passing by the Sorcerers selling various levels of Leaves of Life on both sides. Like most Sorcerers who came, he went straight to the door on the trunk of the Tree of Life that was about more than 50 meters high.
Behind the door, there was a spacious and bottomless passage.
After a period of continuous downward tilt, after a quarter of an hourglass, a huge underground space appeared in Grimm's vision.
Countless magic chandeliers shone on this huge underground square, and there were many passages around the square that seemed to be connected to other underground squares. The entire underground space of the Tree of Life was like a super huge ant nest, of unimaginable size.
Grimm's eyes flickered, but he didn't rush to his destination. Instead, he wandered around the huge underground plaza. There were many shops and stalls with the family's insignia.
These were the regular shops that the Holy Tower of Seven Rings had been operating for a long time. The prices of the items were relatively stable and would not fluctuate too much.
As Grimm saw more, gathered more information, and widened his horizons, he gradually formed a value system in his heart for items from the Sorcerer World within the boundaries of the Holy Tower of Seven Rings.
First of all, in the Holy Tower of Seven Rings, apart from Sorcerer Essences and Magic Stones, which were the hard equivalents of goods, Otherworld slaves and Otherworld Energy Crystals could occasionally be used as "soft currencies" for large transactions.
Secondly, some specialties from other worlds would have different values depending on the needs of the individual Magi.
Different wizards looked at the prices of some of the specialties from other worlds. Some wizards thought that the prices were ridiculously high, while others thought that they had gotten a great bargain.
Finally, after a new foreign world was developed, the first batch of specialties and slaves from this foreign world would usually be extremely popular. As time passed, the specialties and slaves of this world would find their own positions in the value system of the many foreign worlds that the Holy Tower of Seven Rings had conquered.
In this way, after wandering for a full two hourglasses, Grimm found an ordinary-looking shop.
However, the shop's insignia was a blooming purple-gold flower!
"Hello, what do you need to introduce?"
As soon as Grimm entered the shop, a female Magus wearing a silk bra welcomed him. The female Magus had a head full of lush green wavy hair. She was about 1.9 metres tall, slightly taller than Grimm. Her body was extremely skinny, and her whole body was a skeleton.
Raising his head to look at this girl, the thought of "another flat-chested one" flashed through Grimm's mind.
Nodding his head, Grimm did not look at the various goods in the shop. Instead, after a wave of spiritual force, a mystical imprint rippled and disappeared in a flash. Faintly, it actually resonated with a strong will above his head.
This was the resonance ripple of a Seven Rings contract.
"Hmm? You are … "
The female Magus was startled for a moment and closed her eyes.
Following a burst of subtle magical ripple, the female Magus opened her eyes and instantly pulled at the void with both her hands. A few strange green rays of light flashed and disappeared in a flash. Following a distortion in the space, the green silk intertwined and weaved, and a phantom completely composed of green flames appeared in the female Magus' hands.
"Seven Rings Holy Tower District 12 Black Iso Tower sorcerer apprentice, inventor of the Love Vials perfume, Grimm, one of the twenty-one existing Seven Rings contracts of the Purple Tulip Family. Hmm … has he already become an official Sorcerer? "The female Magus frowned and muttered to herself before dispersing the phantom of the green flame.
Grimm did not move. He casually leaned on his magic staff and waited for the other party to speak.
The female Magus did not hesitate and said lightly, "According to the contract, the Purple Tulip Family will hand over 60% of the Love Vials perfume's profits to you."
Grimm nodded his head and said in a slow and cold voice, "That's right. This time, I am here to inform the Purple Tulip Family that I have successfully become a Demon-Hunter Sorcerer and will be stationed at the Holy Tower of Seven Rings. "
If one were to say that Grimm and the fatty from the Black Iso Tower still had some friendship because of Grimm's rescue during his sorcerer-apprenticeship, then this Grimm from the Purple Tulip Family did not have any friendship to speak of. Both parties were purely cooperating, mutually benefiting, and making use of each other's relationship.
The Purple Tulip Family wanted to take advantage of Grimm's shortcoming as a sorcerer-apprentice and use the wisdom of an official Sorcerer to "steal" Grimm's Love Vials perfume formula. The price was a Holy Tower of Seven Rings contract and a mere five thousand Magic Stones.
Although the once destitute Grimm looked at it from the perspective of a Sorcerer's apprentice, he had made a killing at that time. He even suspected that the fatty and the Purple Tulip Family were crazy and stupid. But at this moment, Grimm looked at it from the perspective of a Sorcerer. The wisdom of a Sorcerer was indeed not something a Sorcerer-Apprentice could compare with.
All of this was like a Sorcerer's apprentice mocking an ignorant commoner. The innate wisdom of both parties were not on the same level, and their understanding of the world was also not on the same level.
However, it had to be said that Grimm had indeed obtained the real opportunity to rise because of these seemingly unprofitable benefits.
Otherwise, it could be said that Grimm would be like the occasional "stupid" Sorcerer-Apprentice, completely dead in the Newcomer's Trial or other compulsory missions, or in the midst of a battle between Sorcerer-Apprentices.
These years, Grimm had gradually begun to understand some of the secret tricks of the Purple Tulip Family.
Not to mention the other fragrances that were born after the Goddess of Love Vials, just from the promotion of the Goddess of Love Vials, the Purple Tulip Family didn't do their best. All of this was driven by the maximization of benefits. As long as the Purple Tulip Family waited until after Grimm died and the Purple Tulip Family vigorously promoted this product, then all the benefits of the perfume would fall into their own hands. Wouldn't that be a huge profit?
At this moment, the reason why Grimm wanted to appear in front of the Purple Tulip Family as a Sorcerer was, on one hand, to extract magic stones, and on the other, to subtly inform the Purple Tulip Family that his lifespan was no longer limited to the two to three hundred years of a Sorcerer's apprentice.
If the Purple Tulip Family continued to wait until the end of their lifespan before recklessly promoting the Love Vials, then that would be a kind of stupidity.
Therefore, if Arin's guess was correct, the income he would receive from the Love Vials in the future might undergo some real qualitative changes.
Grimm had already discovered that many Sorcerers within the Holy Tower of Seven Rings had gotten used to hanging a small bottle of various packaging of perfume on their waist. It seemed to have become some kind of invisible trend, and this trend would undoubtedly greatly increase the profits and promotion of the perfume.
The Sorceress looked at Grimm and said calmly, "Since Sir Grimm has become a Demon-Hunter Sorcerer of the Holy Tower of Seven Rings, then as long as Sir Grimm is willing, Sir Grimm can choose any of the seven shops of the Purple Tulip Family within the Holy Tower of Seven Rings to receive the benefits that he deserves at any time."
"Yes."
Grimm agreed indifferently. Without batting an eyelid, he put away the large amount of high-grade magic stones that the sorceress handed to him. After verifying the contract, he casually looked around the shop and left under the sorceress' gaze.
Grimm flew over the bustling crowd in the underground plaza and passed through a wide passageway. After a quarter of an hour, he arrived at another underground plaza.
