In the square of Black Isotta Wizard School, the Dean of Norris Tower personally presided over the event. All the students who had paid 100 badges walked into the huge scale.
There were more than 90 students standing on one side of the scale, including Sam, who was ranked ninth among the top ten. Alastair, Belle, and Kyrie were also among the new generation. Bionna was nowhere to be seen.
(Lafite and Bionna were both injured, so Bionna delayed collecting badges. Lafite didn't know about it at first.)
As for the top ten students of the older generation, except for the three who had fallen, the rest all came to the scale, striving to gain something from the Secret Mirror of the Black Isotta Tower. Among them were Aldas, the Sword of Light, Bethany, and Roga, the Water and Earth Twin. Half of the top ten students of the Black Isotta Tower had changed during the war. Except for the three who had died, there were two more students, one of whom was Sam. (Gade was killed by Grimm. No one knew that Sam had survived the war because of his immortality.)
"Grimm."
Sam's voice came from behind Grimm. His tone was calm, as if he was not surprised by Grimm's change of clothes.
"What?"
Glenn didn't dare to waste any time. He didn't stop calculating the Fire Blast Sorcery for even a moment. He turned his head, and under the Ashen Mask, a pair of eyes suspiciously looked at Sam.
Sam's eyes only showed some "humanity" when he was looking at the members of the Death Sail League, but when he was looking at others, he was too calm and indifferent.
As for why, no one knew.
However, every time Glenn saw Sam, he could vaguely feel the coldness in the depths of his heart. At the same time, there was a kind of indescribable loneliness pervading the air. It was as if this extremely powerful sorcerer-apprentice was just a child hiding in a corner in the winter, coldly watching passers-by in his heart.
Grimm shook his head and waved his thoughts away.
Perhaps, the child who hid in a corner and watched the passersby in the winter … was the child who had just regained his memories? Who were his parents? Why am I in Bi Seer City? These were all like mysteries, as if he was an anomaly that had appeared out of thin air in this world.
Of course, Grimm did not think that he had any exaggerated background, just like in the novels. The biggest possibility was that he was just a poor little guy abandoned by a poor couple.
Perhaps, deep in everyone's heart, there was a trace of desire. When Grimm was with Old Ham, he had once fantasized that he might be the descendant of some great wizard. Or did he suffer from amnesia like the protagonists in biographical novels?
Grimm sneered inwardly, feeling that his silly thoughts were childish.
Was one's background that important?
Sam walked to Grimm's side and said slowly, "Why is it that every time I see you, you look so ordinary, but I feel more and more that I can't ignore you? It's like a monster sleeping beside me, making me feel confused and excited at the same time. "
Monster?
Grimm said indifferently, "My friends might think that I'm a monster. But for a genius like you, I'm just a growing beast. "
Apparently, Sam still wanted to say something, but with a tremor of the scale under his feet, the surrounding space was distorted, and Glenn felt like his body was being pulled into a noodle. In a blink of an eye, he was standing in a strange place.
What? Is this the Secret Realm of Black Iso Tower?
He didn't feel dizzy or nauseous like when he was in the Newcomer's Trial.
Glenn looked at the dusky sky around him, feeling the chaotic and irritable elemental energy in the air. It was as if the natural forces between heaven and earth had lost the restraint of certain laws, losing the natural laws of the changing seasons, the weather, and the alternation of day and night.
This feeling is similar to the feeling in the third Secret Realm during the Newcomer's Trial, but not exactly the same. Is this what a broken world looks like? Some fixed rules and theme of the world are missing? "Glenn guessed without any reason.
According to Norris, after the first war between the sorcerer civilization and the alien civilization in the ancient times, a world around the sorcerer world was completely broken. Since then, the broken pieces of the world had been around the sorcerer world.
Then …
After the second war between the Sorcerer Civilization and the alien civilization, the Great Necromancer, who sacrificed her life, used the Destiny Lever to move the entire Sorcerer World. Did these World Fragments that were attached to the Sorcerer World move along with them to this unknown and strange Endless World Space?
Under the Ashen Mask, Grimm's eyes flashed with wisdom. He suddenly moved his feet and looked at the rolling wet soil under his feet.
What? This creature …
It was a streamlined "earthworm", black in color, with a small sucker like a fly in its mouth. It kept rolling the soil. Its body was densely covered with short black tentacles, and its body emitted a faint stench.
"This is … an Iron Nematode? I can't believe there's such an ancient creature that has long been extinct in the sorcerer world! " Glenn's voice was a little surprised. According to the records in the book, there was a thread of bad luck in the body of this ancient creature called the Iron Nematode. It was said to be the best auxiliary material for Curse Sorcerers to cast certain specific curse sorcery.
And …
Some of the special habits of this creature were also worth studying.
Without hesitation, Grimm quickly grabbed the head of the Iron Nematode with one hand and began to wrestle with it for a long time. After half an hourglass, Glenn finally pulled the worm out of the moist soil. Then, he stared at the worm with a stunned look on his face.
How could it be so long? Was it self-evolution or some kind of mutation?
It was no wonder that Grimm was so shocked. The Iron Nematode in front of Grimm was more than 20 meters long, but its body was only as thick as a baby's arm. According to the book, Iron Nematodes were generally only three to five meters long.
Although he was shocked, Grimm was not going to be soft-hearted. In a moment, he made a simple specimen of the Iron Nematode, and then he slowly stuffed the specimen into a disposable dimensional pocket. The dimensional pocket was like a bottomless pit, and after a while, the entire specimen of the Iron Nematode was stuffed in. (A disposable dimensional pocket can only be used to store things. If you want to take it out, it will be completely destroyed.)
Grimm was in a good mood because he had gained something as soon as he arrived at the Secret Mirror of the Black Iso Tower.
Looking at the towering trees a hundred meters away, they looked a little hideous, dark, and twisted under the dusky sky. It seemed that these plants had undergone some unknown evolution and mutation in this chaotic world fragment.
After thinking for a while, Grimm flew toward the endless forest.
This was a world fragment ruled by the master of the Black Iso Tower. All the powerful creatures had been kept as soul slaves by the master for a long time, so Grimm was not too worried. If there was any danger, the master's soul slaves would just throw them out of this world fragment.
Of course, if there was really an unlucky apprentice who was killed by the native creatures of this world fragment, then he could only blame his bad luck. After all, every opportunity was accompanied by danger. The master of the Black Iso Tower was not a caretaker for these apprentices.
Just a moment after Grimm flew away, a huge figure that was five meters tall rushed toward the place where Grimm was just standing.
It turned out to be a two-headed dog!
"Strange, there were some natural forces and spatial changes just now. Why didn't I smell the target?" One of the two-headed dog's head murmured.
The other head bared its fangs and said in a fierce voice, "Do you see this footprint? Hmph, this target is very cunning. He can hide his scent. Call the night owls here to come out and finish the mission quickly. We can go rest. "
"Coo, coo, coo …"
After a while, a night owl flew over from afar, followed by two white flying snakes with transparent wings.
These soul slaves of the master of the Black Iso Tower looked around for a while, then flew toward the endless forest without hesitation.
