The older brother's male head was about to say something, but he was pushed aside by the younger sister's head who suddenly opened her eyes.
After losing control of his body, the male head closed his eyes and the expression on his face disappeared, as if he had suddenly fallen into a deep sleep. The other sister's head moved to the center of her neck, opened her eyes and looked at Grimm carefully.
"You're Grimm, right? My brother was a little rude just now, he didn't introduce himself. My brother's name is Mangles, and I'm Qiu Lisha. We're also participants in the mission to wipe out the Arcane Kingdom! "The sister's voice was soft and gentle, and it was obvious that her personality was much gentler than her brother.
"Oh?" Grimm raised his eyebrows and looked at her with a much kinder gaze.
"I'm sure you know that those of us who are pushed to participate in the mission can almost be regarded as cannon fodder. Once we break into the Arcane Kingdom, not to mention the great arcanists, even the companions around us who are trustworthy will be few. So … "
"You want to form an alliance in advance?"
"Yes!" Qiu Lisha smiled indifferently, "Instead of doing nothing and waiting for the arrangement of fate, it's better for us to join forces, so that we can have a certain degree of self-protection. At least, we can deter the monsters in the Disaster World, so that they won't treat us as prey! "
Grimm thought for a moment, and could not help but be secretly moved by Qiu Lisha's proposal.
Although they were all grade 4, in front of those old monsters who had advanced for thousands of years, they were still as fragile as scarecrows. Especially those arcanists who had the advantage of time, place, and people, when fighting with them, the wizards couldn't gain much advantage.
Under such circumstances, if the cannon fodder wizards could join forces to protect themselves, at least they wouldn't have to waste their limited power in the civil war.
"I agree with your proposal in principle, but how do we rely on the alliance? I'm afraid it's difficult for ordinary witchcraft contracts to bind grade 4 wizards, right? "
"Oath contracts, have you heard of it?"
"I've heard of it. It seems that several wizards who participate in the oath each cast a curse witchcraft. In this way, those who violate the contract will suffer the joint curse of the other wizards. "
"Yes! This is the text of the contract we drafted. If you think it's suitable, you can join it and leave your own curse spells. "
Qiu Lisha waved her hand in the air, and a strange black slate made of an unknown material appeared. On it was a binding contract written in the common language of wizards.
At the corner of the stone slab, the three Magi's spell seals were engraved.
One belonged to Mangles, one belonged to Qiu Lisha, and one belonged to Wizard Holly of the Silver Alliance.
Moreover, Grim could smell the scent of curses or voodoo items from these names.
Now it seemed that only he and the Northern Witch were missing.
Grimm's eyes quickly scanned through it and quickly stored the contents of the contract into his mind.
As he closed his eyes and pretended to be deep in thought, the A.I. Chip quickly analyzed the contents of the contract. It confirmed that this was a contract that restricted the participants from fighting amongst themselves, and that they had to work together to resist the enemy. There were no hidden language traps or magic traps.
Soon, Grimm opened his eyes. He smiled and stretched out his hand to draw a series of flaming runes in the air. These runes did not dissipate immediately. Instead, they gathered together and collided with each other, finally condensing into a strange rune formation with a complicated structure.
Under Grimm's control, strange runes wrapped around his Witchcraft Imprint and floated towards the black slate, quickly fusing into it. In the next moment, Grim's name appeared on the slate.
"What an exquisite and complicated flaming rune formation! You actually didn't use a curse spell? "Qiu Lisha gasped in surprise.
"I don't know much about curses, and I don't have enough cursed items to restrain a rank 4 Magus, so I can only use a flaming rune formation instead. It only contains one of my flames! "
"It doesn't matter. It's just a way to maintain trust. As long as we don't want to die together, I don't think anyone would be stupid enough to tear up a contract that has great benefits for them! "Qiu Lisha smiled, as if she did not care about this at all.
However, if she could see through the flaming rune formation that the flaming attack had reached 3,700 degrees, she would not be smiling so easily.
3,700 degrees … Such a terrifying flaming attack could instantly kill a rank 4 Magus below the middle rank. Even those bloodline Magi or Body Tempering Magi who were known for their physiques would suffer a great deal if they were not on guard.
After all, most beginner Magi had a base attack of between 1,100 to 2,000 degrees, while middle-ranked Magi had a base attack of 2,000 to 3,000 degrees. Grimm's strongest attack could reach 3,900 degrees, which was enough to rival high-ranked Magi who were close to their peak condition.
However, he was just a beginner rank 4 Magus who had just advanced a little over 10 years ago!
Since Grimm had already signed the contract, they were now allies. Their conversation was much more relaxed and natural.
"This time, we were the ones who volunteered to run errands for the Great Magus Anremus. So, we'll need your help in the exchange. How about this, if you're not satisfied with the few items Lord Anremus has given you, I still have a Seven Hearts Grass here. How about it? " Sorceress Qiu Lisha was obviously very good at socializing, and the reason she gave was something Grimm could not easily refuse.
Thus, Grimm hesitated for a moment, and finally exchanged a person's portion of powerful magic essence for the rank 4 Blazing Coral Staff and the Seven Hearts Grass.
The Seven Hearts Grass was a resource that could barely squeeze into the ranks of a rank 4 Magus.
When a Magus's body was seriously injured, he could use the Seven Hearts Grass to reattach his broken limbs without losing his basic combat power.
Sorceress Qiu Lisha could not help but smile as she had roped in another ally and completed the mission given by the Great Magus.
After exchanging communication methods with Grimm, she left happily.
When the residence was quiet again, Grimm asked, "A.I. Chip, how's the analysis of their data?"
[Beep. The target has a powerful life force. The A.I. Chip's probing and deep scanning are all blocked … Based on the method and degree of distortion of the life force, this two-headed Magus should be an Elemental Magus who forcefully advanced after fusing their souls …]
"Fusing their souls?"
"Their souls are not strong enough to advance to rank 4. In order to forcefully advance, they had no choice but to fuse a portion of their souls and bodies, which is why they can barely exist as two-headed Magi."
"What about their combat power?"
"Individually, they are only at the peak of rank 3, and after fusing, they are at the initial rank 4 …"
"In other words, their usual battle prowess is still below Grade 4. Only by using spells and combining their strength can they reach Grade 4 … No wonder they are in such a hurry to rope in some allies. So it has to do with their strength being the weakest among all the participants of this mission! If they don't have an oath or a contract, I'm afraid they'll be the first ones to be eliminated! "
After putting away the Seven Hearts Grass, Grimm rubbed the Flaming Coral Wizard Staff in his hand to make sure there were no suspicious marks or marks left on it before storing it into the Elder's Ring of Authority.
The reason why he chose this magic staff was because it was more suitable for his identity.
Since the other party wanted to form a team with him, Grimm knew that he was an Elemental Magus who was proficient in fire spells. This way, he could avoid the more dangerous close combat.
After all, it was not a bad choice to hide a portion of his strength in an unfamiliar team!
… …
Outside the Wizard's Pagoda.
The pair of two-headed sorcerers flew quickly in the sky while communicating with each other using a special sorcery technique.
"What do you think of the legendary Fire Magus' strength?" The one who spoke was the elder brother, Mangles.
"His strength is far above ours … Most importantly, he doesn't seem to care about forming an alliance!" The younger sister, Qiu Lisha, calmly analysed.
"This might have something to do with his smooth development. Otherwise, how could he fight against the competitors from other planes with his strength alone in such a dangerous mission? Right, do you think we still need to get in touch with that Northern Witch? "
"According to the information we have, the Northlands sent a Tier 4 Dark Witch to carry out the mission. She's also the only middle-ranked Magus among all the participants. Do you think that with their arrogance and pride, they'll accept our conditions? "
Hearing his sister's question, Mangles could not help but curse inwardly.
"Those damned crazy women … I curse her to run into those creatures of disaster the moment she enters!"
"I don't know if she will run into those creatures of disaster or not. But I do know that we'll definitely run into them. Because in their eyes, I'm afraid we're the greatest harvest of this trip! "
As the elder brother, Mangles could not help but sigh and fall silent.
In such a dangerous mission, those who were confident in their strength would not be in a hurry to carry out the mission. Instead, they would first eliminate the weaker 'competitors'. No matter how one looked at it, the Magus faction's team made up of novice rank 4 novice was the most suitable to be dealt with.
As for the siblings, they would naturally not be able to escape the pursuit of powerful enemies.
