The conversation with Mas the Prophet was pleasant and relaxed!
As long as any thoughts or thoughts flashed through Grim's mind, Prophet Mars would more or less be able to sense them.
With the two smart people together, there was no need to beat around the bush or test each other's bottom line. With just a few words, they were able to establish a framework for future cooperation.
Although Grimm could not make decisions on behalf of Lord Sarubo, he could recommend Mas the Prophet and the others to Sarubo. This was the main reason why Mas the Prophet was so eager to meet Grimm!
Through the conversation, Grimm found out that Mas the Prophet was not fighting alone. There was a large group of spellcasters with the potential to become Sorcerers around him. The weakest of the people Grimm met along the way had the strength of a high-grade apprentice, and most of them had the spellcasting ability of a Quasi-Sorcerer.
Their leader, Mas the Prophet, was a terrifying Grade 2 Professional.
Unfortunately, the specialty of the Prophet was that he gave up all spellcasting abilities in exchange for a more powerful foresight ability. Therefore, although he was of a high grade, he did not have much offensive power. Instead, he often needed the protection of his followers.
For Prophet Mas to be able to gather such a large group of people around him and hide in the heart of the Kingdom of Knights, it was evident how powerful he was.
Thus, Mas the Prophet and his followers were more like a mutually beneficial group.
Mas the Prophet relied on his followers to protect him, and he could provide them with protection to avoid danger, allowing them to escape from the pursuit of the terrifying Demon Hunter Knights.
Such a small group of people could only appear in the cruel and abnormal environment of the Plane of Knights!
But no matter what they were thinking, Grimm's mission in Skandre City was much easier now that he had the support of the local tyrants.
In less than half a day, the information about the Demonic Foundry Camp and the whereabouts of the king were delivered to Grimm.
Grimm had two missions to carry out in Skandre City. The first was a kill order personally issued by Lord Sarubo, requesting Grimm to kill Edward VII as soon as possible in order to cause internal strife in the Kingdom of Knights. The second was Grimm's personal mission. The rune energy fusion knowledge that he needed was hidden in the Demonic Foundry Camp.
And he was determined to obtain this knowledge!
The Demonic Forging Camp was actually the largest and most secretive military equipment manufacturing facility in the Kingdom of Knights. The standard rune equipment required by the Demon-Hunter Knights were forged in the Demon-Forging Camp.
For a long time, the Demonic Forging Camp was also a special occasion where the nobles of all sizes were eager to infiltrate. Everyone in the world knew how powerful a Demon Hunter Knight was. One was the invincibility of the Demon Colts, and the other was the powerful defense and attack power brought by the Runic Equipment.
Therefore, any ambitious aristocrat would want to steal all the mysteries of the kingdom's Rune Equipment, and then secretly cultivate their own Rune Warriors.
Unfortunately, this so-called Demonic Forging Camp was one of the most important secret places in the kingdom. Almost no one had successfully barged in and escaped alive. If it wasn't for the information provided by Prophet Mars, Grim wouldn't have been able to find the location of the Demonic Foundry Camp by the time the Kingdom of Knights was destroyed.
Late at night.
Inside a simple and shabby wooden hut.
Grim sat alone at the only wooden table in the room, reading the documents in his hands in the dim candlelight.
He had made the request during the day, and the other party had sent someone to deliver the information at night.
The information was very detailed. Other than the exact location of the Demonic Foundry Camp, it also included the layout of the buildings and the division of functional areas, as well as the number of guards and their strength at each pass.
It had to be said that the person in charge of building the Demonic Foundry Camp was very smart!
For the sake of secrecy, they had hidden the Demonic Foundry Camp in the Mingsu Mountain. In other words, the Demonic Foundry Camp was not stationed in a relatively open plain, but hidden in the belly of the Mingsu Mountain.
There were only two roads leading there. One was the headquarters of the Demon-Hunter Knights on the mountainside, and the other was the back of the mountain.
The former was the main passage, mainly responsible for transporting materials and resources. It was guarded by three to five Radiant Knights all year round, and it was almost impossible for outsiders to barge in. The latter was a small hole opened in the middle of the cliff, responsible for dumping the waste and waste produced from the forging of the Rune Equipment.
The hole was more than 300 meters from the bottom of the cliff, and the cliff was rugged and steep, making it almost impossible to climb up. Moreover, the hole was equipped with a sturdy metal fence, which would only be opened temporarily when the waste was dumped. There were also guards patrolling there, and ordinary people would not be able to sneak in.
After carefully reading all the information, Grimm quickly drew a three-dimensional model of the Demonic Foundry Camp in his mind with the help of the A.I. Chip. As the data of the coolies, craftsmen, and guards filled in, a lively and realistic Demonic Foundry Camp was formed.
With the first-hand information of the Demonic Foundry Camp, the next step was to consider how to barge in and sneak into the drawing room at the core of the Foundry Area. The sheepskin scrolls containing all the knowledge and designs of the Rune Equipment were stored there.
As for the equipment there, it was enough to make Grimm click his tongue.
Under normal circumstances, there were five Radiant Knights stationed there all year round. Three were in charge of protecting the Knight Headquarters, while the other two were stationed in the Demonic Foundry Camp, separated by a wall from the drawing room.
However, with the frequent attacks of the giant dragons on the capital, many Radiant Knights had been deployed to protect the safety of the palace. As a result, the number of Radiant Knights stationed in the Demonic Foundry Camp fell to its lowest point, with only two. One was stationed at the Knight Headquarters, which was near the entrance of the Demonic Foundry Camp, while the other was stationed inside.
This was undoubtedly great news for Grimm!
Unfortunately, even so, a Radiant Knight with full battle prowess was an insurmountable mountain.
Unless he could sneak into the drawing room without making a sound, as long as he was discovered by the guards, he would inevitably alert the Radiant Knight stationed there.
In the Greenland Forest, Grimm might have been able to toy with the Radiant Knight by relying on the complex terrain and powerful mobility of spells. However, in this narrow underground passageway, he had lost his mobility. The moment he met the Radiant Knight would be the moment he sacrificed himself for the cause of Magi.
Even though he had personally killed a Radiant Knight before, it was only because the Radiant Knight was exhausted. Grimm had been accumulating strength and waiting for the Radiant Knight to be exhausted. He had even sacrificed the Lightning Giant and a group of other magic puppets to achieve this result. However, he was now facing a Radiant Knight with full battle prowess, and in the enemy's territory!
The A.I. Chip simulated hundreds of intrusions in the spiritual space, but it was a pity that the Radiant Knight would always make an appearance. In the end, the A.I. Chip came to a conclusion. If he did not think of a way to get rid of the Radiant Knight stationed there, Grimm's plans to snatch the drawing room would be for naught.
Apart from this problem that troubled him greatly, the mission of assassinating Edward VII that Lord Sarubo had personally assigned was also fraught with difficulties.
Edward VII was hidden in the palace at the peak of Mingsu Mountain, protected by a large group of Radiant Knights and Spell Breaker Knights. It was also the only area where the dragons did not invade, so the defences of the buildings were rather complete.
In order to prevent a sudden attack from the dragons, the guards there could be said to be impenetrable. The chances of Grimm breaking in and killing the king were slim.
The more he understood about the information on the sheepskin scroll, the more powerless he felt.
While the strength of a rank 1 Magus was enough for him to live a carefree and happy life in the Magus World, in the planar battlefield, every step he took was filled with danger, as if he was treading on thin ice. The slightest misstep would result in the destruction of both body and soul!
Just as Grimm was feeling vexed and hesitating, light footsteps sounded outside the wooden hut, followed by a light knock on the door.
Prophet Mas had personally come to pay a visit!
"I believe you have seen the information, sir. May I know how confident you are in completing these two missions? "Prophet Mas could not help but ask as soon as he sat down.
Grimm was honest and spoke bluntly, "If I were to rely on myself, I would not be able to complete either of these two missions!"
"Then are you planning to give up, sir?"
"No, not at all!" Grimm smiled, "If I were to rely on myself, of course it would not be possible. However, with Lord Mas' help, things will be different! "
Grimm could clearly see that the information provided by the prophet was so detailed that it was hard to believe. It could not have been obtained by those half-baked spellcasters. The only possibility was that the prophet in front of him had obtained it through prophecy spells.
Since the prophet had such a powerful ability, he might be able to rely on his terrifying prophecy abilities to find loopholes that others would not be able to detect. Wasn't this his forte?
However, it would be impossible to borrow his abilities without paying a price. After all, the information provided by the prophet was more than enough to compensate Grimm for introducing them to the great Magus Salubo.
Thus, to obtain the full support of Prophet Mas, Grimm had to come up with something new!
That night, the two hid in the wooden hut and discussed for the entire night.
From the second day onwards, Grimm did not take a single step out of the hut. He stayed in the hut and frantically copied the sheepskin scrolls day and night. In just three days, he had completely copied out some of the more basic magic books of the Magus World without missing a single word.
It included the daily meditation techniques of acolytes, spiritual force training methods, branches of the magic system, and some basic acolyte spell models.
With such a complete magic system as a reference, as long as Prophet Mas could survive the calamity of the plane's collapse, he would have the possibility of continuously nurturing spellcasters of this plane. However, this was something that the great Magus Salubo could not provide him with.
Of course, in order to prevent the other party from turning hostile, Grimm had used spells to seal most of the contents when he was copying the scrolls. If he did not personally undo the seals, all the sheepskin scrolls would have been burnt to ashes in a raging fire.
