After Queen Lafite's outburst, the matter of the Death Sail League gathering with Grimm was settled.
Compared to other things that were a waste of time, Grimm would rather study more advanced sorcery knowledge alone to enrich himself. So, after the Death Sail League gathering ended, Grimm and Lafite said their goodbyes and went straight to the Black Iso Tower. There were still a few days before Grimm would be officially taught witchcraft by Norris. Grimm needed to do some experiments during this time.
As he was about to leave, Chris called out to Grimm with a female wizard apprentice.
"Huh?"
When Grimm saw Eraltiven beside Chris, he immediately understood why they were here. A smile appeared under the Ashen Mask. During the trial, when Grimm was "fighting" for the reward of the first Hidden Mirror, he had unintentionally saved this female wizard apprentice. She must have come because of this.
Eraltiven wasn't particularly beautiful. She was flat-chested and had rough skin. But why did she have such a special relationship with Chris? On one side, Grimm's imagination was running wild. On the other side, Iltiwen, who was standing beside Yorkis, was equally nervous. She still couldn't forget the scene in the trial. Every time she thought about it, the man with the Ashen Mask would appear in her nightmares, haunting her for a long time.
It was this unknown man in the Alliance who had grasped such tyrannical power and slaughtered other sorcerer-apprentices in the Secret Plane.
And just now, he had rejected the nomination of an elder. No wonder … No wonder that venomous tongue queen would do anything to possess him.
Chris smiled. "Grimm, this is Eraltiven. You've met her a few times. This time, I brought her here mainly to express my gratitude to you for saving her once in the trial. "
Erltiven took a deep breath and calmed her thoughts. After all, without the suppression of the marks in the trial, apprentices would no longer be able to exert that kind of pressure on each other.
"Grimm, thank you."
Eraltiven was probably older than Grimm, but she didn't call Grimm big brother or anything like that.
With Chris by his side, Grimm smiled and said, "There is no need to be so polite. Be it from the perspective of you being a member of the Alliance or from the perspective of Chris, I had no reason not to help you."
Of course, Grimm wouldn't say that he had to thank Ilartiven for luring the monsters back then.
After chatting for a short while, the two of them had a great time and left a crystal ball imprint on each other. Grimm then walked towards the Black Iso Tower again.
On the first floor of the Black Iso Tower, Fatty's expression changed when he saw Grimm. "Grimm! You have no idea how scared I was at that time. Entering that interrogation room was not a joke, it could have cost someone's life. Even if official Magi were to enter, most of them wouldn't be able to come out, let alone me. This interrogation room is famous for being an execution ground. "
It was obvious that the interrogation room had left a big shadow in Fatty's heart.
Grimm also smiled bitterly. How could he have known that he would get into such big trouble? Fortunately, it was a blessing in disguise. He was recognized by Wizard Norris, which could be considered as a great opportunity.
"Hmph." Fatty snorted and said, "Tell me, what materials do you need this time? As for the microscope, we will have news in the next two months. I will ask that wizard for more details. "
"Okay." Grimm nodded and said, "I need a potion that can improve the soul connection between a wizard and a Symbiotic Bug, a material that can improve my body's senses for a short time, two Leaves of Life, and a living monkey."
Fatty took out two Leaves of Life and didn't say anything else. This kind of material was very expensive in the Wizard Academy. Generally, it was priced at 500 magic stones per piece. It was a necessary life-saving item for top wizard apprentices.
"A potion that can improve the connection between a wizard and a Symbiotic Bug … Take a look." After saying that, the fatty rummaged around in the counter and took out an ordinary-looking blade of grass. He laughed weirdly and said, "This is Heart Grass. It's usually used by sorcerer couples when they're looking for excitement. However, it's also effective on Symbiotic Insects. It's only 100 Magic Stones."
Grimm nodded indifferently and accepted the Concentric Grass.
Then, Fatty thought for a while and took out a black crystal ball from under the counter. He then took out a crown-like wizard tool from a warehouse.
Fatty pointed to the black crystal ball and said, "This is a crystal ball used by the underground wizards. The wizards there are different from us. Most of the wizards on the Wizard Continent are elemental wizards, while the underground wizards are mostly dragon wizards. The wizards on the Wizard Continent focus on the development of mental strength, while the underground wizards focus on the body and the aptitude of the Symbiotic Wyvern. They are two different directions of development. Uh … To the wizards there, the Symbiotic Wyvern is our Symbiotic Bug. This black crystal ball is the crystal ball of the wizards there. It is of a higher grade than the ones here. Apart from mental strength, it can also detect a wizard's constitution. "
Grimm was a little surprised.
In the Sorcerer World, Grimm did know that other than the largest Wizard Continent, there were a few other wizard regions that had developed different wizard civilizations. The underground wizards were one of them.
However, Grimm had only read about it from books and had never heard anyone talk about it in detail. Now that he saw the crystal ball used by the underground wizards, he couldn't help but pick it up and study it curiously. At the same time, he tried to use his mental strength to sense his own condition.
Mental Strength: 24, Magic Power: 238 ~ 247
Vitality: 4, Stamina: 34 ~ 55, Strength: 15 ~ 60, Vitality: 22 ~ 24
Grimm's face darkened. His Vitality was really low. This was the result of not practicing spells to strengthen his Vitality. If he invited Chris over, his Vitality would be at least 15 points. As for the stamina, strength, and vitality, they should be external attributes that were affected by Vitality, just like magic and mental strength. Stamina and Strength didn't need to be active. Activity should be an attribute of a creature's physical resistance.
With this conversion, his physical strength should be able to hit 1 ~ 6 degrees of attack and defend 2 ~ 3 degrees. If his stamina was high …
The only thing that Grimm could think of was to climb to the 70th floor of the Black Iso Tower. He would no longer be like a dead dog.
Seeing that Grimm was interested in the black crystal ball, Fatty laughed and said, "This crystal ball is not expensive. It's just that the distance to get it is too far, so it's priced at 1000 magic stones. Of course, these magic stones are nothing to a guy like you. "
Grimm's current net worth was indeed shocking. On one hand, it was because of the income from the fragrance that Fatty brought in every month. This income would increase with the gradual promotion of the fragrance. On the other hand, when the trial mark was removed, Grimm earned more than 20,000 magic stones in one go.
Without batting an eyelid, Glenn kept the black crystal ball and looked at the crown-like sorcerer's tool.
Fatty said cautiously, "This wizard tool is a high-end item that official Magi occasionally use. Its function is similar to that of a microscope and is used to assist Magi in experiments. The difference is that the real function of the Dialysis Crown is to consume the user's soul force to observe his body from all angles. Therefore, the user will strictly control the number of times and the duration of use. For us Magi acolytes, we can only use it once a month at most for half a minute. Otherwise, it will hurt our soul. This must be treated with utmost caution! "
After pausing for a while, Fatty added, "The Dialysis Crown's effect on most Magi is to temporarily solidify the spell cast by the Chirping Tree Branch. It is used to detect any abnormalities in the body, which are the affected points. Of course, there are also many Magi who use it for body evolution research and potion quality evaluation. "
Grimm's eyes lit up. This Dialysis Crown was indeed the most suitable tool for him at this moment. The only troublesome thing was the usage limit.
Without batting an eyelid, Grimm also accepted the Dialysis Crown. He did not even ask for the specific price.
As for the live monkey that Grimm needed, it was given to him for free. A moment later, Fatty came back with a cage. Inside the cage, there was a monkey looking around with a bunch of bananas in its hand.
… …
After returning to the small laboratory, Grimm first looked at the exploding mushrooms that he had cultivated. After confirming that the transplanting was successful, he carefully extracted some of the powdery particles attached to them as experimental materials. It was these particles that gave the exploding mushrooms the ability to cause hallucinations.
After a while, Grimm took out a carefully preserved bottle from the laboratory table. Inside the bottle was half filled with a muddy yellow liquid. It was a liquid that Grimm had filtered out from the stomachs of a few wild cranes three months ago. According to Grimm's meticulous research, the effect of this liquid was the key to the wild cranes being able to resist the mutation of their bodies caused by the Jet Conch.
Filled with excitement, Grimm once again immersed himself in his experiments in the laboratory.
Three days later, Grimm had dark circles under his eyes. His soul was dispirited, but his spirit was abnormally excited. "After the Jet Conch becomes a Symbiotic Insect, it can actually combine with the host's natural adaptability and help the host evolve greatly? And the price for this is the consumption of the energy needed to support the evolution of the host? "
Grimm's previous research had already confirmed that the Jet Conch had the ability to actively influence the host's life code. However, this time, he discovered that after the Jet Conch became a Magus's Symbiotic Insect, it could also help the Magus adapt to the natural environment and evolve passively!
The so-called passive evolution was the ability of a living being to continuously adapt to the natural environment in order to better survive. This was a characteristic that all living beings had. For example, if a person continuously walked, a thick layer of calluses would naturally appear under their feet, and the thigh muscles would develop.
The Jet Conch's ability to help the Magus host evolve passively was to greatly reduce the time taken for this passive evolution and greatly strengthen its functions.
Of course, the speed of passive evolution was still incomparable to the speed of active evolution. For example, when an acolyte advanced to an official Magus, this was the active evolution of humans.
Grimm discovered that after the Jet Conch's passive evolution twice (the first time was the hallucinogenic powder from the exploding mushrooms, and the second time was the fire elemental burns from the Sun's Child), his resistance to the hallucinogenic powder and fire elemental attacks had increased!
In his excitement, the first thing that came to Grimm's mind was to go to Fatty and buy a magic wand that could seal all kinds of elemental attributes! Even if it was only a little bit of resistance at a time, if it was accumulated for tens of years, this resistance would be enough to make Grimm immune to some low-energy elemental spells that his body had resistance to.
Yes, there were also a lot of special ingredients that his body needed to replenish and absorb, which he needed to buy in bulk. As the saying goes, what you eat will make up for what you eat.
With a thud, the overtired Grimm fell asleep on the laboratory floor.
