News of Alice's advancement to level 4 spread throughout the northern lands in an instant!
The ordinary citizens did not know the inside story and were naturally elated, cheering and excited for the northern lands to grow stronger by the day …
However, the other Witch Factions seemed to be somewhat stunned and astonished!
In the past, even though the Destiny Witches had regained their inheritance, the battle for fate had continued. The situation was still treacherous and unpredictable, and there was unrest within the family.
However, the extremely obvious favor of fate had instantly swept away the haze on the heads of the Destiny Witches.
Not only had Alice advanced to level 4, she had also benefited all the Destiny Witches and apprentices, allowing everyone to share in the unexpected favor of fate.
From this moment onwards, the Destiny Witches could be considered to have truly risen. There was now a beautiful garland of "Favored by Fate" above their heads!
Even though the various Witch Factions had mixed feelings, they still had to consider their unity and friendship on the surface. Hence, there was an endless stream of teams sent to the Tower of Destiny to congratulate her, almost blocking the path to the Dragonbone Wilderness.
In an instant, the reputation of the Destiny Witches soared, and they became the most popular branch of the Northern Witches!
… …
The Crimson Wings.
The headquarters of the Crimson Family was located in the Elovis region.
This was a large city with a population of a hundred thousand. In the center of the city, the tall Wizard's Pagoda represented the limitless authority of the Crimson Family.
At least in the Elovis region and the surrounding regions, the Crimson Family had become a colossus. They were rapidly expanding and expanding with vigor that other Wizard Families did not have.
In the spacious Wizard Hall on the seventh level of the tower, Emelia was anxiously and busily dealing with family matters that came from all directions.
The current Crimson Family was no longer the small local force that only had a few territories and resided in a secluded area. Ever since the family had produced a popular level 4 Magus, the number of Magi in the Crimson Family and the size of their territory had been continuously expanding.
According to incomplete statistics, the current Crimson Family controlled one large and two small human kingdoms, 172 territories of various sizes, 109 resource points of various types, 215 human cities of various sizes, as well as countless villages, manors, and ancient castles …
With such a huge amount of resources, one could imagine how much effort and effort one had to put in to completely control it.
Usually, Gargamel was responsible for these mundane affairs, but during this time, the family has been preparing for the grand wedding banquet of the Patriarch, so Emelia had to leave the meditation room to support this big situation for her father.
A few Crimson Sorcerers in wizard robes stood in front of the large white wooden table, reporting the situation to Emelia one after another. Some of them were old men with white hair and beards, some were strong men with bulging muscles, some were sinister fellows with withered bodies like skeletons, and of course, there were also beautiful and charming young women.
"… The area that was plundered was the maple forest. The leading wizard, Bess, had served the family for 27 years, and there were 7 wizard apprentices in the team. When they were sleeping near the maple forest, they were attacked by an unknown creature, which led to the death of three sorcerer-apprentices. "
"They stayed at the same camp as the other two caravans, but the two caravans did not show any abnormalities. Only Bess and his team were knocked out. After an investigation, the cause of death of the three sorcerer-apprentices was spiritual force exhaustion. Wizard Bess' life was not in danger, but he was in a weakened state … "
"Spiritual force exhaustion?" Emelia could not help but frown, "This kind of attack is very rare. Did you investigate what was missing in the team? "
"We have. Wizard Bess's waist pouch was lost, and inside it were a few basic resources that needed to be handed over to the nearby resource points."
"Is there anything special inside?"
"Yes! This batch of resources contained 300 grams of Stoneheart Grass … "
"Stoneheart Grass?" Emelia's expression turned ugly, "Can you confirm who the attacker was? Was it done by those underground creatures, or was it a foreign Magus? "
"We have already tried to communicate with Jamuli in the underground alliance, and the other side's feedback is that it was a misunderstanding, and they will handle it themselves!"
"A few of our family members died, and they still dare to say it was a misunderstanding? These damned underground worms deserve to rot in the dark stone grave … No, I can't let this matter end like this. ' Tell Jamuli that if he doesn't hand over the culprit, the Crimson family will immediately declare war on the underground alliance … Since Bliss has already returned to the family from another world, let him take a stroll in the underground! "
At the mention of the Insect Lich Bliss, the few Crimson Magi present could not help but lower their heads, their faces turning pale.
The Insect Lich Bliss was terrifying and savage. Not to mention the Magi outside the family, even the Magi within the family feared him like a tiger. They would tremble at the mention of his name.
It could not be helped. All these years, the Insect Lich Bliss seemed to have exhausted all of his potential. Ever since he had advanced to high-grade rank 2, he had stagnated and could not advance any further.
This situation was unacceptable to the proud and arrogant Bliss. Therefore, he also began to explore the ancient ruins in various places and was invited to participate in some expeditions to other worlds, hoping to find a method or item that could change or enhance his worm witch bloodline from these dangerous places.
Unfortunately, although he had gathered many rare treasures, there was not a single one that could change his and the Insect Queen's fates!
Hence, when he heard that Grimm had returned to the family in another world, he ran back without hesitation, constantly requesting to see Grimm. Unfortunately, most of Grimm's energy was focused on healing his soul injuries and creating a Shadow Fiend. He did not have the time to bother with his former subordinate.
Hence, the Insect Lich Bliss had been restless these days, and even his insect army had become violent and savage.
Near the Anquila Valley where the Insect Lich Bliss lived in seclusion, there had been many tragic cases of passing merchants being devoured by insects. If not for the Crimson family covering up the truth in the area and suppressing these cases, the citizens and merchant guilds would have already caused a ruckus.
Hence, when Emelia mentioned the Insect Lich Bliss, a few of her trusted subordinates could not help but lower their heads, afraid that they would be sent to deal with that lunatic.
However, just as Emelia was looking around for a suitable messenger, the wooden door of the hall was suddenly pushed open, and a beautiful and enchanting middle-aged lady walked in with a joyful expression.
Anyone who could freely enter and exit this place was naturally not an outsider.
A few of the Magi's subordinates hurriedly bowed, greeting the forest demon Ava.
The forest demon Ava ignored them, and excitedly rushed to Emelia's table.
"Aine, good news, good news … Guess what good news I've brought you this time?"
Looking at the excited Ava, whose face was flushed red, Emelia could only frown and complain, "Mother, I'm dealing with family affairs! Why did you barge in so recklessly … "
While the forest demon Ava was also an old member of the Crimson family, her background determined her personality. She did not like to be restrained like human Magi. Hence, she almost never participated in the family's internal affairs, and rarely participated in foreign wars. Instead, she stayed at the family's headquarters to manage a Magus academy.
Medusa and the manticore leader Dhaka were in a similar situation. Both of them belonged to a different race that was attached to the Crimson family, so the family's status was inferior to those orthodox human Magi in all aspects.
Moreover, it was much harder for a different race to advance than a human Magus.
Hence, with the continuous emergence of rank 2 and 3 Magi in the family, they gradually withdrew from the core, and could only serve as instructors or managers in places like the Magus academy, continuing to enjoy the Crimson family's offerings.
"Aine, you can't blame mother for this. After all, this is really great news!" Hearing her daughter's reprimand, the forest demon Ava was a little embarrassed, but she still could not stop her excitement.
"That's right, mother. What good news is it that makes you so happy?" Emelia smiled helplessly.
She knew her mother's temperament very well. If she allowed her to mess around like this, she might not be able to explain the whole story even after half a day. Hence, she could only go straight to the point and ask.
"Level up … level up … Lady Alice has leveled up!"
Hearing the forest demon Ava's incoherent and unclear words, the few Scarlet Magi present could not help but be stunned, almost unable to believe their ears.
Alice has advanced? … That Lady Alice seemed to be a rank 3 Magus … Could the advancement that Lady Ava was talking about be to advance to rank 4?
The few of them looked at each other, their faces filled with surprise and joy. They could not help but look at the demonic woman Emelia at the same time.
"Go check … Amel, you're in charge of intelligence. Hurry up and check this news … I want to know the authenticity of this news immediately!" Emelia shouted anxiously.
The young and charming female Magus quickly responded and rushed out of the hall.
In just a short while, the confirmed news came. Witch Alice had advanced to rank 4!
This time, even Emelia could not sit still.
She anxiously paced back and forth in the hall, her mouth still muttering incessantly.
"Sister Alice has advanced to rank 4 so quickly … I have to go congratulate her immediately … I have to go congratulate her immediately … That's right, what gift should I bring?"
"Kingwell, go to warehouse 7 and bring the pair of elven earrings that just entered the warehouse … Sister should like that style …"
"Corinne, go and get all the resources that have been handed in this year, then come with me to the Tower of Destiny …"
"Mother, quickly call father back … I'm going to the north now!"
