South Felder City, Magus Tower.
Grimm sat quietly in front of his desk, unfurling a piece of parchment. Based on his memories, he slowly wrote down a strange rune.
The runes from another world had been sorted and filtered by the A.I. Chip. Apart from the 122 basic runes that were common between the two planes, there were also 23 variant runes and 28 new runes. The variant runes referred to the runes from another world that were similar to the rune system of the Magus World. However, there were slight changes due to the difference in the power systems of the two planes.
However, apart from the variant runes, there were 28 new runes that were not present in the rune system of the Magus World. Hence, if Grimm wanted to modify them into something that could be used by Magi, he could only experiment and create new runes one by one.
After three days of non-stop deduction, the A.I. Chip had finally analysed a new rune and converted it into a rune form that was recognised by the Magus World.
The rune that he had written on the parchment represented 'recovery' in the Knight's Plane. Engraved in a rune formation would give a person double the recovery rate. However, in the Magus World, as the rune was completed, a faint purple glow began to gather on the parchment.
Immediately, a strange monster's hand stretched out from the parchment, slowly probing its surroundings.
On the palm of the monster's hand, there was a strange eye.
The size of the eye was similar to that of a human's, but the white and purple pupils were a little frightening. What was even more frightening was that it was still blinking, as if it was observing the situation over here.
Grimm sat still, the fire elemental energy in his body slowly gathering. He asked in a deep voice, "Are you a monster or a life form from another world? Can you understand what I'm saying? "
The A.I. Chip's prompt sounded in his mind.
[Detected abnormal force field fluctuations. Currently invading the Host's spiritual senses. Initial diagnosis is an illusion. Requesting Host's instructions to cut it off?]
The monster's hand finally stopped moving aimlessly and pointed its palm at Grimm. The strange eye suddenly closed, and when it opened again, it was blood red. Red mist sprayed towards Grimm's face like a tidal wave.
Grimm couldn't bear it any longer and roared, a violent lava fireball exploding in front of him.
The magma shield rose in time to block the splashing lava and magma, and the strange monster's hand disappeared. Even the witchcraft protected desk was completely destroyed, and the scene was a mess.
Grimm sighed helplessly. He released the defense spell and contacted the wizard tower genie.
"Help me repair my room!"
"Scan found severe witchcraft damage. The estimated repair cost is 35 magic crystals. The cost has been added to your public bill …"
After the mechanical voice of the Tower Genie disappeared, the residence that had been eroded beyond recognition by the raging flames and scorching lava immediately began to change.
The floor that had been eroded and full of potholes recovered with a slight bulge, while the steaming hot magma slowly disappeared from the field as if it had been erased by an invisible eraser.
A moment later, the residence was restored to its original state!
Grimm sat down in front of his desk after sealing the defensive spells in his residence, silently communicating with the A.I. Chip.
"A.I. Chip, did you record what happened just now? Did you discover anything strange? "
[Beep. Host has suffered from an illusory attack. The source of the attack is an unknown mysterious rune!]
"Illusory attack?"
Grimm couldn't help but mutter to himself.
How did the recovery rune he expected turn into a mutated illusory rune? The difference between the two was too great! Did the A.I. Chip deduce wrongly? Or was there something strange about those runes from another world that he could not understand?
Thinking about it carefully, the experience just now was too realistic. Now that he closed his eyes, the strange hand that seemed to have no bones and the abnormally nimble eyes appeared in his mind. Such a scene was just an illusion?
In the last scene, the strange eyeball had attacked him. If he had not resisted, would he not have suffered any damage?
Although there was a trace of doubt, Grimm shook his head and denied this dangerous thought.
No, he definitely could not make such a dangerous attempt! In this world, illusory spells were a powerful force, and as long as it was a force, there would be a certain degree of danger! Hence, even if he was sure that it was an illusory spell, he still had to defend against it.
After thinking about it, Grimm felt that he had only been a Magus for a short period of time, and the resources he had in store were too insufficient. He had almost zero methods to defend against illusory spells and spiritual force spells, and he had to rely on his spiritual force to resist them. This was not in line with the nature of a Magus who was good at using knowledge and resources.
As for the special items like the Shrieking Twig that he had obtained as an acolyte, they were no longer suitable for him at the Magus rank. If Grimm wanted to obtain some magic artifacts or equipment that could be used by Magi, he could only place his hopes on Sky City.
After all, in the entire Magus Continent, Sky City, with its large number of arcane Magi, was definitely the first among the 3 great Magus organisations in terms of the quantity and quality of high-grade magic artifacts. Even some of the powerful enchanted items that had appeared in the Scattered Tower Forest were mostly from Sky City.
It seemed that before he could gather magic equipment that could increase spiritual force resistance, he would have to stop his research on these runes from another world for a period of time.
While Grimm was silently thinking about the direction of his research, a familiar spiritual wave came from the defensive spell of his residence.
Grimm did not hesitate to connect to Kogan through the spiritual link.
"Come to the 12th floor, Lady Sanazar is back!"
Grimm's heart skipped a beat. Lady Sanazar was a genuine rank 3 bloodline Magus, and her true form was a super terrifying Venomous Wyvern. Back in the plane battlefield, Grimm had personally witnessed her display of power, and how she had forced the green dragons to flee in panic.
The return of such a powerful Magus meant that the conquest of the Knight's Plane was going smoothly. That was why the family had the spare energy to send her back to suppress the situation.
Grimm did not dare to delay. He rushed out of his residence on the 7th floor and hurried to the 12th floor to meet with the head of the family.
Sanazar was a rank 3 female Magus, but her face was always shrouded in a strange green mist, making it difficult for people to see her face. When she sat high up on a thick stone chair and stared coldly at the crowd, all the Magi could not help but lower their heads, not daring to look directly at her body.
Even if they were standing slightly closer, they could feel a slight pain coming from their bodies from time to time.
This was the energy radiation caused by Lady Sanazar's overly strong magic power. As long as she did not take the initiative to restrain her power, the group of rank 1 Magi could only silently endure, and no one dared to show any dissatisfaction.
If a terrifying rank 6 Magus was compared to a small nuclear reactor, then a rank 3 Magus like Sanazar would be a nuclear material with extremely strong radiation, while rank 1 Magi like Grimm would at most be some nuclear waste.
Therefore, even though Magi were already as powerful as gods in front of ordinary people, when faced with a high-ranked Magus whose strength was even more unfathomable, they would once again feel fear and trepidation that they had not felt for a long time.
At this moment, there were only 3 Magi in the Wizard Tower, including Grimm. Even if you added the 3 Magi stationed outside, the total number of Magi in the Salubo Family's headquarters was only 6. This number was indeed a little weak for an intermediate Magus family.
From this, it could be seen that the death of 8 Magi in the Knight's Plane had significantly weakened the Salubo Family's power.
Perhaps this was also the main reason why the Great Wizard Salubo was so anxious to send Sanazar, a rank 3 Magus, back to the base of the family.
After all, the Wizard World was the source of all Wizard Families. Only by keeping their roots large and smooth could they continuously send qualified Magi to all the big Secondary Planes, making the whole family prosperous and powerful.
Wizard Sanazar lazily leaned on the stone chair, silently listening to Wizard Cogan's explanation of the recent changes in the family and the movements of the surrounding Wizard Families. When she heard that Grimm had fought against 2 Magi and killed a Wizard from the Black Hand Association 7 days ago, her gaze finally landed on Grimm through the hazy green mist.
For no reason, Grimm felt his body tighten, and the piercing pain became even clearer.
After a long period of silence, Grimm finally heard the voice of Ms. Sanazar.
"Before I came back, I heard Mr. Salubo mention you. He said that you are the most intelligent and ambitious one among the rank 1 Magi in the family. That's good! If a Wizard loses his ambition, he will also lose the courage to explore and take risks. But if he only has ambition and no brains, he will take risks and be reckless, and he will die in a situation that is beyond his ability. "
After that, Sanazar turned her head to Cogan and ordered.
"Send a message to that old bastard from the Black Hand Association. Tell him that I, Sanazar, am back. If he dares to do anything to the Salubo Family again, I will go to their door and eat them all! "
The fierceness and cruelty in her words sent chills down Grimm's spine.
Also, Grimm had a feeling that if she said that she wanted to eat Cogan, it was not a threat. Instead, it was something that she couldn't wait to do.
"Also, the family is in urgent need of new people, so you guys can't just sit around. From today onwards, every Wizard in the family must accept a few wizard followers and be responsible for their education. The family will give you double the contribution points! "
Actually, this was what everyone had already thought of.
Therefore, no one had any objections and nodded in agreement.
