"So … what's our goal now?"
As the crowd of Acraepoids gradually dispersed, Claudia leaned against Grimm and asked.
Grimm looked around and focused his gaze on the sickly Acraepoid children. He said in a deep voice, "Let's get used to the life here first. I need to collect data on the effects of the Abyssal Moss and information on the Infernal Swordsmanship. At the same time, you can secretly search for information on the sorcerers and the blood essence stones."
"Okay."
Claudia responded and followed Grimm to a woman in the distance.
Behind the middle-aged woman were two young Acraepoids. According to human calculations, they should be around ten and seventeen years old respectively.
Both young Acraepoids were female. The older one did not seem to be affected by the Abyssal aura. She looked very healthy and wore a fiery red veil on her face.
As for the younger Acraepoid, his body was covered with dense black spots. There were some fluffy hairs on the spots, making him look hideous and terrifying.
When the middle-aged female Acraepoid saw Grimm and Claudia coming over, she bowed slightly.
"Honorable Acraepoid Warrior, what can I do for you?"
Behind the middle-aged woman, the two young Acraepoids also bowed.
After Grimm nodded, he looked very amiable and easy to talk to. He pointed to Claudia behind him and said, "This is my sister Tia. We came to Fort Santalum to avoid the Sorcerer's Shadow. If it's convenient, I hope you can help us find a suitable place to stay."
As he spoke, Grimm took out a few fiery red fruits, a small bag of sulfur powder, and two Fire Quartz and handed them to the woman.
"After all, Fort Santalum is now overcrowded. I don't want my sister to live on the streets."
Seeing the supplies Grimm took out, the three Acraepoids were pleasantly surprised.
The middle-aged Acraepoid woman looked around and put the supplies away to prevent others from peeping.
"How can honorable Acraepoids like you and Tia sleep on the streets? This is my eldest daughter, Nyo, and my youngest daughter, Naya. Two honorable guests, please come with me. "
The middle-aged Acraepoid woman was overjoyed.
Due to the spread of the Abyssal Moss pollution, Fort Santalum City was not in a hopeless situation. The sulfur powder had temporarily controlled the spread of the Abyssal Moss into the city, but it also made the city look like a lone island on its own.
The only remaining unpolluted plantation outside the city was controlled by a few commanders and temple priests. They only provided food to the Acraepoid warriors in the city to maintain the basic order of the city.
If the other Acraepoids did not want to starve, they could only leave Fort Santalum in groups and search for uncontaminated food on the abyssal contaminated land. The former commercial trade had been blocked by the Abyssal Moss.
To the powerful Acraepoid commanders, a preliminary contamination of the Abyss land was nothing. However, to the civilians, even a few poisonous insects were enough to kill them.
Food became the most precious basic resource in the city.
Following the middle-aged Acraepoid woman, Grimm and Claudia came to the interior of a hundred-meter-tall Flame Burrow. The burrow was already overcrowded with Acraepoids, and they could be seen everywhere.
In such an environment, once the Demon Hunter Sorcerer successfully cultivated the Acraepoid Plague of Life and Death, it would inevitably spread on a large scale.
The five of them flew up the hollow layer of the Flame Burrow.
Although the ordinary Acraepoids had wings and could fly, their flying speed was very slow. It took them a while to fly a few dozen meters.
The middle-aged Acraepoid woman brought Grimm and Claudia to a room.
The room was a fiery red color, painted with a kind of rock powder. According to the Acraepoid culture, this kind of decoration was much more luxurious than the direct use of plant branches and leaves. It was obvious that this family used to live in a good condition.
A few simple furniture, a hammock that looked like a silkworm chrysalis, and a few pots of decorative plants.
Compared to the Sorcerer World, the room was filled with a natural and harmonious atmosphere.
"This is Nyo's room, you can live in it. My husband has gone out to collect food, and will be back in a few days. She can live in the same room with me. If you need anything, just let me know. "
The youngest daughter, Naya, needed to live alone because she was infected with the Sorcerer's Shadow.
Grimm smiled and said, "Thank you."
Night fell.
Although there were two rooms, the rooms in the Flame Burrow were actually connected to each other. The entire Flame Burrow only needed to be lit with a few lights, and it would be brightly lit under the reflection of the flames in the Flame Burrow.
Gurgle, gurgle …
The middle-aged woman and her two daughters had only eaten a little food. They were very hungry, but they still sang and worshipped the Dark Destroyer Infernal God's statue devoutly.
As Dark Demon-Hunter Sorcerers, Grimm and Claudia's camouflage at the enemy's rear was a piece of cake for them. They followed suit and started singing along with the Dark Destroyer Infernal God. Their expressions were so pious that they were willing to sacrifice everything for the Infernal God.
They wondered if the Dark Destroyer Infernal God would go crazy if he knew about this.
It was Grimm who lured them into the Burrow World to be sealed, and yet he was still worshipping the Dark Destroyer Infernal God with his people …
It took an hourglass' time for the five of them to finish their worship. This seemed to be the Acraepoids' nightlife entertainment.
During the worship, Grimm and Claudia could hear the growling of the three hungry stomachs beside them.
Knock, knock, knock.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. The three Acraepoids were overjoyed. The middle-aged Acraepoid woman said with relief, "It's Fred."
Nyo stood up happily and trotted to the door. She opened it and threw herself into the arms of a young male Acraepoid.
"You're finally here."
The shy female Acraepoid in front of Grimm and Claudia was now acting coquettishly. Her black flames gradually merged with the male Acraepoid's.
It seemed to be a human kissing action?
Looking at Grimm and Claudia's puzzled look, the middle-aged female Acraepoid explained, "This is Nyo's childhood friend. I watched him grow up. Fred did not let me down. He activated the Infernal Spirit Power before the Sorcerer's Shadow arrived two years ago. Although he has not become an Acraepoid Warrior yet, he is already working in the city. "
"Oh."
Grimm nodded.
Nayue was depressed because of the invasion of the abyss. She seemed to have sensed that death was approaching, but there was nothing she could do except pray to the Dark Destroyer Infernal God.
This little Acraepoid girl was supposed to be at her most innocent and cheerful age, but she was facing death.
Fred takes out some food and gives it to Nyo. Then he walks into the room, but he seems to be attracted by Claudia. He can't take his eyes off her.
"This is …"
Nyo seemed to be jealous of Fred. She pouted and said, "This is Tia, Warrior Grimm's sister."
Warrior!?
Fred then noticed Grimm's Infernal Blade. He quickly bowed and said, "Greetings, Warrior Grimm."
"Hmm."
Grimm's eyes flickered. Perhaps he could learn the entry-level method of the Infernal Swordsmanship from him?
As for the deeper level of the Infernal Swordsmanship, he could follow the instructions in the Vulkshy Infernal Curse to promote the Dark Devourer Infernal Spirit Giant to a deeper level of evolution. He could use the Dark Destroyer Infernal God's soul as a guide to restructure the mental strength framework of the Element Activation Sorcery.
"Hehe, you've been staring at me since you came in. Is it because there's a flower on my face?"
Claytia gazed at Fred with ripples in her eyes as she spoke seductively.
"Hehe, Miss Tia is the most beautiful woman I've ever seen. It's my honor to be able to see you."
Fred's flattery made Claudia laugh. Grimm laughed as well. He coughed and said, "I'm going to the city tomorrow to look for a job. Don't cause trouble in the city. This is not Bi Seer Village. I can't take care of you if anything happens. Do you hear me?"
Grimm looked like a strict brother trying to control his sister.
As for Bi Seer Village, it was made up by Grimm when he was young in the Sorcerer World.
"I know, I know. Geez …"
Claudia said impatiently, but her eyes kept looking at Fred. She had a captivating look on her face, causing Fred to be absent-minded. He tried hard to control himself and not pay attention to Claudia.
Late at night, Fred left.
Claudia was rocking on the hammock. She turned around and whispered, "What's the matter, Mr. Grimm. Are you not interested in sleeping with me? Hehe, I don't mind at all. "
Grimm leaned against the corner of the room and meditated. He did not open his eyes.
