Without the guidance of a Stigmata Sorcerer, it would be an extremely foolish choice to cross the Infernal Spirit Continent to the Arctic Tundra.
Naturally, Grimm would not make such a foolish choice.
Even if they had to go around one sea region after another, or even pass through some of the Acraepoids' strange and disastrous lands, it would still be much better than brazenly traversing the hostile Infernal Spirit Mainland.
Six months later.
Even though Grimm had been extremely cautious, there were still a few Demon-Hunter Sorcerers who died when they passed through the sea of dragonfly bubbles half a month ago.
The situation at that time was really critical.
Some of the natural laws and unique biological evolution methods of this world were quite different from the Sorcerer World.
Now, this Sea of Whirlpools was one of the most feared sea areas by the Acraepoids. After crossing this sea area, they would be in the Arctic Tundra of the Infernal Spirit World.
The temperature here had dropped significantly.
Although the Acraepoids had dominated the Infernal Spirit Continent for a long time, there were still some powerful creatures without intelligence in the depths of the sea, which made many Acraepoids fearful, just like the legends of human sailors in the Sorcerer World.
Among them, this Sea of Whirlpools was a strange creature that had the ability to control parts of the sea and make the Acraepoids fall into uncontrollable sleep. The Acraepoids called it the Phagocytic Shell.
Among the Acraepoids living around this sea area, it was said that the smaller the Phagocytic Shell, the more terrifying it was.
"Phagocytic Shell?"
From an Acraepoid captive, Grimm and Senichino obtained information about the Sea of Whirlpools, which caused the Acraepoids to turn pale with fear. They were muttering about this mysterious creature named the Phagocytic Shell.
The ability to control parts of the sea, in the sorcerer's understanding, was naturally the ability to control the water element.
And to fall into uncontrollable sleep, there was no doubt that it was mental hypnosis.
For an official sorcerer, as long as the creature's level was not too far apart, with sufficient preparation, these two abilities were nothing at all. It was one of the sorcerer's cognition.
Strangely, although the creature known as the Phagocytic Shell had been circulating in this sea area, and there were even some Acraepoids who had seen the Phagocytic Shell and described it after they escaped death, no Acraepoids had ever caught a living specimen.
The Phagocytic Shell had always been like a mystery.
"Where did the name Phagocytic Shell come from?"
Grimm asked the Acraepoid captive in a cold voice in the form of a mysterious, terrifying, and evil sorcerer. He looked murderous, as if he would kill the captive if he was dissatisfied.
"It's the shape of a whirlpool in the ocean! The whirlpool is like an open shell. Phagocytic Shells with a diameter of more than 100 meters are common in this area, so they are not scary. However, if you encounter a Phagocytic Shell with a diameter of less than one meter, you will be devoured unless you are the great Infernal God! "
The Acraepoid captive said in horror.
"Someone? Including your Saints? "
Senichino asked. Out of curiosity, one of the ostrich heads pecked at the purple sea fruits on the back of the Acraepoid captive and took a puff of smoke.
Gu gu da da da da!
It seemed that the Sea Fruit tasted pretty good. The three ostrich heads took turns pecking at it, eating it with relish.
Although the Acraepoids felt sorry for the sea fruits that they had risked their lives to collect, their lives were in the hands of these terrifying sorcerers. Naturally, they dared not refuse.
"Yes, including the great Acraepoid Saint."
The Acraepoid nodded in reply.
Two figures flew back from afar. It turned out that the Bright Demon-Hunter Sorcerers who were sent to investigate had returned.
One of the female Demon-Hunter Sorcerer was extremely charming. Her skin was as white and delicate as snow. Behind her was a pair of transparent dragonfly wings. Her temperament was somewhat similar to Claudia who was behind Grimm.
The other sorcerer was wearing a square box. His eyes were densely packed with light green mechanical eyes. He carried a light red lightsaber on his back. Under his sorcerer's robe, his body was thin.
Both of them were Level 2 Demon-Hunter Sorcerers!
"Master Senichino, we have investigated the sea in front. Other than a meaningless whirlpool formed by the laws of nature, there is no other discovery."
After the sorcerer with the square box on his head finished speaking, he projected the recording from the crystal ball into a light screen.
A wonderful whirlpool with a diameter of tens of thousands of meters and a depth of about seven to eight meters appeared. The whirlpool was like an open shell. Grimm, Little Eight, Senichino, and Claudia on his shoulder were all stunned.
This whirlpool did not conform to the sorcerer's knowledge and laws.
Such a large whirlpool, yet the center was only seven to eight meters shallow. How did this world form such laws!
"This is just the most common Phagocytic Shell. It's harmless."
The Acraepoid captive quickly explained after being questioned by Grimm.
"So? Do we go around this sea, or continue forward? "
Senichino looked at Grimm. Although Senichino was the commander of this phalanx of tens of thousands of Bright Demon-Hunter Sorcerers, Senichino's Demon-Hunting mission was to lead the army to assist Grimm in completing the Arctic Icefield Strategic Mission.
After a moment of contemplation, Grimm suddenly mobilized the Force of Nature to confine the Acraepoid. He said cautiously, "I'll go investigate first."
If they took a detour, it would take them at least a month more. This whirlpool was even bigger than the Celestial Crater in the Sorcerer World. Therefore, it was necessary to delay a few hourglasses for investigation.
"No …"
The Acraepoid struggled and shouted, "You don't understand the horror of this Sea of Whirlpool. It's a forbidden area set up by the great Infernal God. No Acraepoid dares to enter this sea without permission, no …"
The Acraepoid struggled desperately but was automatically ignored by Grimm. Instead, Little Eight stayed behind.
"Wait here."
"Huh? Alright. Hmm? Aren't you going too? "
Little Eight flew down from Grimm's shoulder and asked Claudia.
Little Eight was used to having Claudia by Grimm's side all the time. However, Claudia said, "No, I have something to ask this master."
At this time, Claudia was talking to the Level-2 sorceress who had just returned from her investigation. Grimm sensed that she had the same aura as Claudia.
It seemed that both of them had the aura of ancient black witchcraft to collect charms?
…
"Sob sob sob, Lord Sorcerer, please let me go …"
This Acraepoid who lived in a remote area of the Infernal Spirit Continent begged Grimm for mercy. Perhaps the true horror of the sorcerers had not spread to this remote area, so this Acraepoid was still hoping for a fluke.
Grimm ignored him.
Unlike the average sorcerer, Grimm dived directly to the bottom of the sea and swam. Although an official sorcerer could completely survive at the bottom of the sea by mobilizing the Force of Nature, Grimm still used his sorcerer's barrier to isolate himself from the seawater like an eggshell.
The bottom of the seawater was very calm and clear. Strangely, there were no living creatures. It was a dead sea.
Suddenly, Grimm seemed to have discovered something. He looked at a tiny whirlpool in the distance that led straight to the bottom of the sea and said, "Is that the Phagocytic Shell?"
This whirlpool was only about a meter in diameter, but it looked like it led to the bottom of the sea. It was a sharp contrast to the huge whirlpool that was tens of thousands of meters in diameter but only a few meters deep in the crystal ball image.
