With Grimm holding the line, the efficiency of the Wizard team had undoubtedly increased by a lot.
It took the plant-type Wizard 45 minutes to carefully collect all of the Ysera Seeds in the cave.
The leader of the Wizard team immediately reported the information to Grimm.
Grimm silently nodded, and calmly said, "Let them gather here, we'll go straight back!"
"Yes, my lord!"
Under the leader's signal, the rest of the Wizards nervously gathered around Grimm.
Before they could understand why Grimm had asked them to gather here, countless fire-elemental particles began to gather around them like fireflies, quickly forming a giant Flame Spell Formation. Flames burned within the Spell Formation, but they could not feel the slightest bit of warmth when they touched their bodies.
Just as everyone was feeling inexplicably shocked, the light around them suddenly shook violently, causing their minds to feel as if they had fallen into a bottomless abyss. The world was turned upside down, and they could not tell which direction was which.
Fortunately, this inexplicable dizziness did not last long.
A few seconds later, as the Flame Spell Formation silently collapsed, the Wizards could not help but hold their foreheads and start to retch. The two Level 3 Sorcerers recovered faster. They quickly suppressed their wriggling stomachs and their frantic minds, only to realize that in just a few seconds, the Level 4 Fire Sorcerer had wrapped them up and teleported them to the Number 5 Teleportation Formation.
As far as the eye could see, they could see floating boulders of different shapes and sizes all around them. Not far in front of them, on top of a boulder, the unique fluorescence of the teleportation portal lit up half the area. The Silver Alliance puppet master who was guarding the teleportation portal raised his head and looked at the group of people who had suddenly teleported in front of him with a surprised gaze.
When his gaze fell on the young Fire Wizard in the middle of the Wizard team, the shock on his face was finally replaced by a hint of a smile.
"So you went to rescue the younger generation of the Martin family. I was wondering why you came and went in such a hurry! You must be the newly advanced Legendary Fire Wizard Grimm from the Scattered Tower Forest, right? You're just as the legends say, young and interesting … "
"I have to be on duty here for half a year and can't leave. If I'm free in half a year, why don't you come and have a chat with the Wizard's Pagoda of the Silver Alliance? I heard that the magic machinery you made is exquisite and powerful. Maybe we can have more exchanges in this area … "
"You are?" Grim asked hesitantly.
"Hehe, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Douglas, and I'm a puppet master. I have a lot in common with you in this aspect! "
At rank 4, most of the Magi who had relied on luck, family background, and resources had been eliminated. Therefore, almost every Rank 4 Magus that stood in front of others had all sorts of strange methods and terrifying abilities.
That was why Grimm would not reject a friendly hand extended by a Grade 4 Puppet Master.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Grimm led the wizards into the teleportation circle.
After two Teleportation Relays, they quickly returned to the Wizard's Pagoda.
After entering the Wizard's Pagoda, the few Wizards bade farewell to Grim and rushed back to report to Sir Martin. Grimm then returned to his residence.
As for the share of resources that Martin had promised him, they would definitely be sent to him after this was over.
In this regard, no wizard would risk damaging their own reputation to take advantage of such a small advantage.
After returning to his residence, Grimm went straight to the alchemy lab and took out the Magic Storage Box that contained the arm of the Denizen of the Stars.
There were various Spell Formations etched on the surface of the Magic Storage Box that could seal and isolate most of the flow of magical energy. This would also ensure that the magical energy within the materials collected would not be lost over time. However, in order to ensure the freshness, Grimm felt that it was better to analyze the secrets of the parasitic organ as soon as possible.
Grimm carefully placed half of the Denizen of the Stars' arm on a smooth, black, marble-like experiment table. He then adjusted the intensity of the illumination stone and used the A.I. Chip's deep scanning ability to analyze the secrets within.
Deep within Grimm's black pupils, rays of blue light flickered continuously, emitting all sorts of special spectral lines with a high frequency. Under the stimulation of these spectral lines, the skin of the Denizen of the Stars' arm gradually became transparent, revealing the flesh, tendons, and bones underneath.
Grimm used his hand to press on the skin. The skin was tough and rough, and there seemed to be a special layer of protection on the surface. With a thought, a small orange flame ignited on his fingertip. The skin that came into contact with his fingertip still maintained its indigo color. There was no sign of it being ignited or scorched.
Grimm let out a soft gasp of surprise, and the fire elemental energy within the small flame on his fingertip became denser.
The orange-yellow flames quickly turned crimson, and the energy level instantly increased from 70 degrees to 200 degrees.
Unfortunately, the skin did not change at all.
Grimm did not give up, and the fire elemental energy continued to gather.
The small flame began to shrink, and although it was not as big as before, the energy level within it had increased from 200 degrees to 300 degrees, and the color had turned from red to white.
At this moment, the skin of the Type 3 Denizen of the Stars finally showed signs of change, and the area that came into contact with the flame had traces of being burnt.
Grimm could not help but nod and sigh.
No wonder the Sorcerer Squad had such a hard time fighting against these Denizens of the Stars.
Even though these Denizens of the Stars had simple equipment and were almost naked, their tendons, bones, and skin were comparable to a high-quality Grade 2 enchanted armor.
With such magic resistance, the elemental spells of Grade 2 Sorcerers could barely deal any damage to them. Only Physique Refinement Sorcerers and Bloodline Sorcerers with their powerful physical attacks could pose a threat to them.
Of course, the magic-resistant skin of the Denizens of the Star World was only considered the weakest among all the creatures in the galaxy. If they did not even have this kind of magic resistance, how could they wander around in the depths of the galaxy where the mana tide was everywhere?
After inspecting the skin, Grimm used a silver knife enchanted with 'sharpness', 'armor-piercing' and 'sturdiness' to cut open the surface of the skin. He began to inspect the flesh and bones inside.
As expected, although these Denizens of the Stars looked similar to the apes of the plane, the substance within their bodies was completely different from flesh and blood creatures.
Their flesh was coarse and hard, and each of them was so large that one could see it with the naked eye. If he was not sure that this was the flesh of the Denizens of the Stars, Grimm would have thought that their bodies were filled with black coal and slag.
When the knife cut through the 'flesh', it made a screeching sound that made one's legs go weak. It was as if he was cutting through a hard rock. No, with the sharpness of the knife in Grimm's hand, even if he was really cutting through rock or steel, it should not be this difficult.
This also meant that the 'flesh matrix' in the Denizens of the Stars' came from the depths of the galaxy.
They devoured whatever they found, even the metal ores left behind after the plane collapsed. They ate them with relish. Most of the essence was absorbed by them, and then transformed into this strange flesh that made people feel fear.
With them, the physical resistance of the Denizens of the Stars would be shockingly high!
As expected, the creatures that could survive in the depths of the galaxy were not weak.
With their terrifying abilities, if a Magus were to encounter a Denizen of the same rank, the chances of winning was less than 40%.
After inspecting the skin, muscles, and bones, Grimm cut through the layers of flesh with difficulty and finally revealed the parasitic organ on the wrist of the Denizens of the Stars.
Without the protection of the magic-resistant skin and the strange flesh matrix, the internal structure of the parasitic organ was finally revealed in Grimm's mind.
Strictly speaking, this should be a special organ that the Denizens of the Star Plane had evolved after adapting to the environment of the galaxy. It was like a layer of fibrous flesh and blood tissue, holding a strange light blue crystal in place.
The ability of the Denizens of the Stars to unleash such a powerful blade of light was rooted in this light blue crystal.
The light blue crystal was not an energy organ, but more like a mutated flesh tissue that focused and amplified spiritual force.
Grimm carefully cut off a few dozen tendons that were tightly wrapped around the surface of the light blue crystal before using the scalpel to gently pick it out.
"A.I. Chip, what is this?"
Thousands of colourful energy lines shot out from Grimm's eyes and struck the light blue crystal. It took a few minutes before the light blue crystal faded away.
[Beep. Discovered an unknown Focal Crystal … Crystal's hardness: 310 degrees. Magnification factor: 1, 72 times. Energy condensation form: unknown. Energy condensation system: none. Elemental effects: none …]
Focal Crystal? Magnification factor?
Could it be that this crystal could amplify the strength of spells?
Grimm held the light blue crystal in his hand and kept injecting fire energy into it with a puzzled expression.
As the concentration of fire elemental energy exceeded a certain threshold, there was a soft puff, and a small flame appeared once again.
Grimm stared at the flickering flame on the surface of the light blue crystal and could not help but be filled with doubt.
The data that the A.I. Chip projected in his mind was very clear. The fire elemental energy in the small flame was almost the same as the energy he injected. There was no amplification effect at all.
Could it be that there was a problem with the A.I. Chip's detection?
Grimm's heart skipped a beat. He could not help but inject a portion of his spiritual force into the crystal as he injected the fire elemental energy.
There was an explosion, as if gasoline had been poured onto a bonfire. The small flame suddenly expanded into a magic fireball the size of a human head, floating in front of Grimm and slowly rotating.
