Fifteen years later.
After an hourglass of teaching time was up, Glenn, who was on the high platform, finished teaching the basic rules of fire elemental rune configuration. He didn't care whether these sorcerer-apprentices understood him or not. He didn't even look back as he strode out of the lecture hall.
"Mentor Grimm!"
A girl behind him called out, causing Grimm to stop in his tracks. The dual-colored eyes under the Mask of Truth were like two different colored flames, looking at the female Sorcerer-Apprentice who called out to Grimm.
This female Sorcerer-Apprentice was very courageous. She should have some connections within the academy. Back then, Grimm could not wait to stay far away from those terrifying Dark Sorcerers.
She had a pair of beautiful almond-yellow eyes, single eyelids, brown curly hair, fair skin, and a very tall figure under the blue sorcerer's robe. It faintly reached the bridge of Grimm's nose, basically at the same level as Grimm.
The dual-colored eyes were very puzzled.
Grimm did not have extra time to mingle with these short-lived Sorcerer-Apprentices.
With a pair of big eyes, the female Sorcerer-Apprentice performed the sorcerer's etiquette. She slightly pursed her lips and said, "Respected Mentor Grimm, your lesson was very exciting. It let me experience fun that I have never experienced before. However, I searched the second and third floors of the Black Iso Tower and did not find your private lesson arrangement. I think … "
Grimm shook his head and stopped the girl's words.
"I am only a temporary mentor of the academy. Teaching is just an arrangement of the rules, not an obligation. You misunderstand."
After saying that, Grimm, who was somewhat anxious about the results of his research, was about to leave.
He had just accepted a disciple here, and after cultivating him for more than ten years, in the end, when he returned from the next Demon-Hunting Expedition, he was already dead?
Really boring.
The female Sorcerer-Apprentice eagerly said, "But Mentor Grimm, I really admire your sorcerer knowledge. If I want to become your disciple, at least give me a chance or a hint."
The most common way for official Sorcerers to select Sorcerer-Apprentices was through paid private lessons. After the Sorcerer-Apprentices were satisfied with the lesson, they would then recruit them.
This was also how the academy's Arcane Sorcerers would invest in the Holy Tower Qualification Battles to see if they could earn Sorcerer Essences in the future.
Grimm paused for a moment.
However, not only did Grimm not want to rely on this method to obtain Sorcerer Essences, but he was also not in the mood to waste his precious time in this aspect and delay his experiments.
After thinking for a while, Grimm looked at the female Sorcerer-Apprentice and said indifferently, "If one day, you can become the source of fear for all the Dark Sorcerer-Apprentices in the six academies, and you still don't have a mentor, go find Dean Norris on the 79th floor of the Black Iso Tower. I'll think about it then."
With that, Grimm ignored the sorceress-apprentice and strode forward.
The sorceress-apprentice remained where she was with a face full of disappointment, watching Grimm's silhouette gradually disappear into the distance like yellow sand.
Without a good mentor to broaden one's horizons, how could one achieve higher achievements?
Grimm's words were clearly rejecting any thoughts the sorceress-apprentice had.
Even for the former Grimm, if not for Norris's dedication in imparting advanced knowledge and broadening Grimm's horizons, Grimm was afraid that during the Holy Tower Apex Battles, he would at most be at the level of the Top Ten Experts. He would be far from being able to compete with legendary Sorcerer-Apprentices, let alone become the nightmare of all Sorcerer-Apprentices.
If this female Sorcerer-Apprentice wanted to meet Glenn's requirements, she would need to be at least at the level of a Legendary Sorcerer-Apprentice to accomplish it. In the absence of a good mentor, this was almost an impossible task.
"Hehehe, Young Master, you're really cruel. That little girl's heart is probably already in complete despair, hehehehe …"
Little Eight laughed wickedly, but Grimm was unmoved. He mobilized the elemental power and soared up, flying towards his own laboratory.
On the 22nd floor of the Black Iso Tower.
On the experiment table, a bottle of black blood was burning like a flame. This was the Dark Destroyer Infernal God's blood primer that Grimm obtained from the Black Iso Tower Stigmata Sorcerer.
After the continuous Soul Devouring talent of the Savage Flame Giant during the period when Grimm was an official sorcerer, and the Greedy Flame Giant mutated into the Savage Flame Giant, its strength had greatly increased. After a long period of accumulation, it was only a short distance away from the standard value of a Level-2 Sorcerer.
Ten years ago.
Grimm, who had sufficient research and backup information on the Dark Destroyer Infernal God's soul fragment that was given by the Black Iso Tower Stigmata Sorcerer, tried to let the Savage Flame Giant devour the Dark Destroyer Infernal God's soul fragment. An extremely hungry thought came from the Savage Flame Giant's simple will.
It seemed that it had already expected the Savage Flame Giant's reaction.
Grimm threw all the souls that he had stored and the Soul Condensed Rubber Blocks that he had obtained from trading in the Burrow World into the Savage Flame Giant's soul devouring mouth.
Little Myna also spat out the Heart of the Lava Core. Grimm set up a Fire Quartz Magic Array and attached the Savage Flame Giant's mental strength frame onto the Heart of the Lava Core, preserving it within the Fire Quartz Magic Array.
Now, ten years had passed. These days, the Savage Flame Giant's will gradually showed signs of awakening. This was also the reason why Grimm was in a hurry to return.
Besides that, Grimm did not immediately use the large bottle of Dark Destroyer Infernal God's pure blood primer to reconstruct and draw the mental strength frame runes of the Savage Flame Giant for evolution.
The reason was the analysis of the Infernal Spirit Power!
Grimm realized that if he wanted to use this bottle of precious World Lord's blood to its fullest potential, he must fully understand the nature of the Infernal Spirit Power and add this ability to the mental strength frame of the Savage Flame Giant.
Even in the future, the Infernal Spirit Scripture's soul method of communicating with unknown powerful beings in distant foreign worlds would require this special energy as a primer.
With this thought in mind, Grimm did not immediately use this bottle of precious World Lord's blood to reconstruct the mental strength frame of the Savage Flame Giant. Instead, he kept it.
In the Infernal Spirit World, every Acraepoid practiced the Infernal Spirit Swordsmanship and thus cultivated the Infernal Spirit Power that combined the soul and the flame.
According to Grimm's research, the main source of power for the Infernal Spirit Swordsmanship was the soul and the blade.
It seemed that after the expedition to the Infernal Spirit World, if the Savage Flame Giant reconstructed the mental strength frame, the Lava Sword would be closer to the direction of the Infernal Spirit Swordsmanship. This was the third evolution of the original Greedy Flame Giant after the mutation of the Savage Flame Giant and the soul devouring evolution.
This evolution method was very compatible with the evolution method of the official sorcerers, who constantly increased the leverage of the elements.
"Young Master, how is it?"
Myna stood on the experiment table and asked curiously.
After sensing for a while, Grimm said happily, "Soon."
After calming himself down and calming his emotions, Grimm left the lab with Little Eight and walked towards another lab.
The third phase of the Mask of Truth project, the Eagle's Eye Project, would still take a long time for Grimm.
As for the self-sealing?
Compared to Grimm, it was still a long way off. The symbol on the soundproof skin behind the leg hair did not seem to have any special value. The key point should be somewhere else.
Perhaps, the research on the self-sealing technique should start from the traditional sealing technique?
However, for sorcerer-apprentices, traditional sealing techniques were even more profound. As far as Glenn knew, during her sorcerer-apprenticeship period, only Millie alone had grasped the incomplete Ice Age Sealing Technique, that's all. Moreover, she had become a legendary sorcerer-apprentice because of this.
Nairo's brother, Nairo, would never sacrifice himself to preserve the hope of his sister's survival after achieving so much during his sorcerer-apprentice period.
The secret behind this should be between a relatively simple and profound one. What Grimm needed was an inspiration.
Seven days later.
Piloting the Starfall Reconnaissance Craft, Grimm flew towards the depths of the Savage Thorn Forest.
On a grassy clearing, the Starfall Reconnaissance Craft came to a stop. With a "kacha" sound, the upper half of the metal ball's hatch opened. Grimm slowly descended and stood on the grass.
He muttered an incantation, and a large amount of natural force gathered. After a loud roar, the Savage Flame Giant appeared with a mix of gold and black.
Its ten-meter body was like a small volcano, and waves of heat surged in all directions. The grass under its feet instantly turned from yellow to charred black.
* Roar! * * Woo … *
Within the large area of the Savage Thorn Forest, many of the creatures were frightened. Some of the stronger ones could not help but flee in all directions, while the weaker ones shivered like cicadas in winter. In an instant, the surroundings became deathly silent. Only the crying and laughing mouths on the Savage Flame Giant's chest and back could be heard.
Grimm and Little Eight looked at the Savage Flame Giant, whose aura was clearly much stronger than before. Under the Mask of Truth, Grimm said happily, "Hmm, the base vitality is above 500, and the maximum value of a stable strength attack is over 1000 points. According to the sorcerer's rules, it has indeed reached the minimum threshold of a level 2 sorcerer."
