Success and failure often required a little bit of luck!
Grimm stared at the broken branch absentmindedly. His slack eyes under the Mask of Truth gradually began to focus, and all his attention was focused on the broken finger.
This broken branch originated from the time when Grimm, a sorcerer-apprentice, had just invented the Love Vials and earned some Magic Stones from the Black Isotta Sorcerer Academy. He had unintentionally bought a piece of waste with a few low-level Magic Stones.
Later, Grimm accidentally discovered the lightning rune that flashed across the cut of the branch at a certain time. Mistaking it for a rare elemental rune, Grimm treasured it and kept it. He persisted in observing this rare rune, intending to obtain some kind of thunder attribute ability.
For this reason, Glenn had specially studied the knowledge of the Thunder Element for a short period of time during his apprenticeship.
But later, Grimm failed.
This was a failure that had perhaps been forgotten by people. This strange thunder elemental rune did not give Grimm a new ability. It was not a rare elemental rune other than the 26 basic elemental runes. Grimm had invested a lot of time and energy in it during his apprenticeship, but he had failed.
However, through this strange thunder rune that was absorbed by his body, Grimm discovered that there were thousands of thunder runes on this broken branch. If he absorbed all of them, he might be able to trigger a new thunder rule and change his constitution to be similar to this broken branch.
In order to not turn this temporary failure into a real failure, Grimm decided to continue absorbing and studying this broken branch's thunder rune.
However, there were thousands of thunder runes on this broken branch, and they only appeared at certain fixed times. It took Grimm such a long time to absorb one thunder rune. It was almost impossible to absorb all the thunder runes in the broken branch and trigger a thunder rule.
However, Grimm did not give up on the pursuit of unknown knowledge. He still persisted. Luck was finally born on a wizard who persisted in his pursuit.
In the knowledge of the Infinity Eye that Norris passed on to Grimm, dynamic vision had the ability to accelerate the absorption of thunder runes!
Since then, observing the thunder runes on the broken branch had almost become Grimm's instinct, just like breathing. After hundreds of years, Grimm was even close to completion in recent years. He began to faintly feel that some strange rule had begun to lock on to him.
Grimm knew that it was the mysterious thunder rule that had inadvertently changed the constitution of this ordinary broken branch.
But now, Grimm unexpectedly discovered that the secret of being able to bear the destructive force had always been by his side, in his body!
This was simply ironic.
"Haha, hahahaha …"
Glenn swept his disheveled silky hair behind him. His weary eyes were filled with self-mockery and helplessness towards fate. He slowly stood up from the ground.
If this disaster had not happened, of this so-called "luck", he would not have foolishly put this broken branch in even after ten thousand years had passed.
This disaster was Grimm's luck!
But who would have known that this so-called luck was the result of Grimm's repeated experiments over and over again, year after year, gradually aging the Destructive Energy Observation Logger and eventually breaking it down?
No one knew this. What people in the future knew was Grimm's amazing luck at this moment.
The midday sun in Grimm's eyes did not seem to be dazzling at all. Grimm held the broken branch high, the corner of his mouth revealing a gratified smile, as if it was the smile of a victor. His eyes were moist with excitement.
"Young Master, this … you've succeeded!?"
Little Eight appeared on Grimm's shoulder. At first, she could not understand Grimm's change. After a while, she immediately reacted and looked at the broken branch in Grimm's hand, screaming excitedly.
"Yes, I've succeeded! I've found it, I've finally found it! "
With a flash of his hand, Grimm kept the broken branch into the Dimensional Gap. With a relaxed and happy mood, he looked at the Demon-Hunter Sorcerers who were looking at him strangely from all directions, and jumped out of the giant pit of Destructive Energy.
Grimm smiled as he looked at the tall Seven Rings Snail Emissaries. He had completely freed himself from the loss, failure, and disappointment just now.
"Let's go to the interrogation. This is a disaster caused by my laboratory. It's my personal fault. I'm willing to make reasonable compensation under the Holy Tower's fair judgment. "
On the other side, Millie came over and asked with concern, "Grimm, what's wrong? Are you okay? "
Grimm's sudden change had indeed left too many people scratching their heads.
Grimm looked at Millie and said calmly, "Of course I'm okay. I'm fine, better than ever!"
His clothes were messy, his hair messy, and his face haggard, but Grimm's victorious smile at this moment made Millie not know what to do.
"Caw caw caw caw, Millie, you have to work hard. My young master has taken a big step forward, caw caw caw caw caw caw!"
Little Eight laughed excitedly.
Of course, it knew what it meant after Grimm mastered the Destructive Energy!
This meant that Grimm was no longer a Sorcerer that could be ignored. This meant that Grimm had completed the qualitative change of energy that only a Level-3 Great Elemental Sorcerer needed to advance to a Stigmata Sorcerer!
Moreover, the Destructive Energy was by no means a low-level energy among the high-level energies.
This would suddenly increase Grimm's combat power by several times, reaching a level that was unimaginable to the creatures that were on par with Grimm's combat power at this time.
This was an Elemental Sorcerer, a sorcerer who used knowledge as his combat power.
At the same time, Grimm, who was following the Seven Rings Snail Emissary, was puzzled. Where did the strange Thunder Rule in this broken branch come from, and why could it bear the Destructive Energy?
It was not that a higher level energy could bear a lower level energy. Grimm's mysterious power, the Darkness Pool, was an example.
The Darkness Pool, as a mysterious power, represented the rules of reproduction that surpassed the Level-9 creatures of the Endless World. There was no doubt that such a power was of a higher level than the Destructive Energy.
But in fact, the Darkness Pool could not bear the Destructive Energy.
To be able to bear the Destructive Energy, there must be a reason that could be explained by the sorcerer's knowledge.
It seemed that this knowledge could only wait until after Grimm had transformed into this strange Thunder Rule Body, and then carry out reverse reasoning research. It would be much easier to deduce the reason from the result.
…
One month later.
A Stigmata Sorcerer under the Seven Rings Celestial Sorcerer, as a fair observer, and more than twenty Level-3 Great Sorcerers with their own duties announced the result of Grimm.
"Sorcerer Grimm needs to compensate the Holy Tower for the 1,750 Sorcerer Essences that were lost in repairing the Demon-Hunter Castle. Sorcerer Grimm, you have two choices."
The old Sorcerer who announced the verdict looked at Grimm.
Since Grimm was only at fault by accident and with the Rank-1 Honor Badge, he was not bound.
"One, under the arrangement of the Holy Tower of Seven Rings, carry out two thousand five hundred years of devotion, and become a member of the Sorcerer Devotees under the Holy Tower's rules. Two, you have a hundred years to collect the required Sorcerer Essences as punishment. After a hundred years, if you fail to collect the Sorcerer Essences, you will be sentenced to imprisonment in the Seven Rings Prison according to the rule of one Sorcerer Essence per year. "
Grimm smiled.
Without a doubt, Grimm chose the second option.
Then, immediately start a new Demon-Hunting Expedition. A hundred years to earn and collect 1,750 Sorcerer Essences?
