The days passed one after another.
The resources that Grimm had accumulated during this period also disappeared from the assembly line and were gradually converted into his strength.
After the two Wizard-ranked Mana Puppets, the Tier 2 Molten Giant's Core was successfully transformed into a terrifying Elemental Mana Puppet, the Inferno Tyrant.
Of course, Grimm's abilities were limited. The Inferno Tyrant definitely could not reach the level of a Tier 2 Magus. However, the earth and fire elemental energy that it could activate with a wave of its hand was terrifying enough to crush a Tier 1 Magus.
Through Grimm's Chip's detailed analysis, the Inferno Tyrant's normal attacks could reach a frightening 110 degrees. It was second only to Grimm's strongest single-target attack spell. The earth and fire elemental spells that the Inferno Tyrant could activate had an attack strength of 191 degrees.
This … This was already close to the lower limit of a Tier 2 Magus!
Among the Sorcerers, most Tier 1 Official Sorcerers had between 90 and 130 degrees of defense. This also meant that if the Inferno Tyrant's strongest spell was not dodged or neutralized, it would have the power to instantly kill an ordinary Magus.
With the birth of the Inferno Tyrant, Grimm's frustration at losing the Lord of the Flames was swept away. He straightened his back once more, full of confidence in his trip to Sky City.
… …
Inside the Magus Tower.
Grimm's room had undergone earth-shattering remodeling. It was no longer the same as before, but more like an operating room.
All the furniture had been cleared out, leaving only a clean and tidy stone table in the middle of the room. Dozens of complicated and sophisticated mechanical arms were suspended above the stone table. At the end of each arm were surgical instruments of different styles and uses.
Scalpels, surgical scissors, vascular forceps, surgical forceps, needle holders, tissue forceps, sponge forceps, right angle forceps, circular needles, triangular needles, bone forceps, and so on …
There were all sorts of instruments, including knives, hammers, drills, chisels, needles, saws, and so on. These were all borrowed by Grimm from Wizard Cogan. Their original purpose was to transform wizard beasts …
Today was the big day for the Balrog's Heart transplant. Grimm had called Alice over early and asked her to lead a group of apprentices to guard the door for him. On the other hand, he hid in his house and completed the arduous and complicated organ transplant alone.
In order to prevent anyone from messing with the process, Grim did not use the wizard tower's laboratory, nor did he ask Wizard Cogan for help. Even the reason for summoning the apprentices here was a dangerous spell experiment, and he did not reveal the Heart of the Balrog to the outside world.
After staying in the Sorcerer World for so long, Grimm's only way to protect himself was to be cautious.
In this strange world, the only person he could trust was Mary. As for Alice and Kaby, it would depend on their behavior and attitude in the future.
After a dark and sweet sleep, the A.I. Chip's alarm sounded in his mind. Only then did Grimm wake up from his deep sleep and slowly open his eyes.
He slept soundly and relaxed like never before.
Grimm didn't dream or meditate. He just let go of everything and had a good sleep, completely recovering from the fatigue and exhaustion of the past few days.
Grimm stretched his back and sat up on the bed. He stood in front of the bed and did some simple exercises until the A.I. Chip completed the autopsy of his body.
"Beep, self-examination completed. All data is normal. Body has reached its peak state … "
Grimm nodded in satisfaction and looked down at his tall and beautiful body.
Grimm was not a Body Refiner, so he did not have the abnormal muscles that were as hard as iron. However, with a height of two meters, his well-proportioned and well-built body still bestowed him with an almost perfect body. His sturdy muscles, dark red and lustrous skin, and the strange tattoos on his chest and back.
His dark red hair was scattered behind his back, almost reaching his waist. Coupled with the dark red glow in his black eyes, Grimm's entire body emitted a trace of evil, mysterious, and wise Wizard aura.
Ever since he completed the elemental transformation of his body of fire, dark red had become his standard color. This was also the glow of a large amount of fire elemental energy. Normal camouflage spells would not be able to cover it up.
Although there wasn't any ash on his body, Grimm still took a bath in the fire out of habit.
Suddenly, elemental flames sprayed out from every pore on his body, forming a layer of bright red flame film on the surface of his body, and all the dirt on his body was completely incinerated by this layer of flame, not leaving a single trace behind.
As for the ordinary sleeping robe that did not have any defensive spells, it instantly turned into ashes and disappeared without a trace.
Grimm did not wear any more clothes and just walked out of the bedroom naked. He went straight to the operation room that had been converted from a workshop.
Grimm closed his eyes and checked the defensive spells in the room. He confirmed that all the defensive spells had been activated and that the place was impenetrable.
He then calmly laid down on the cold stone platform.
There was a metal headband that looked like a hood on one side of the stone platform. Grimm silently put it on his head.
When his spiritual force penetrated the metal headband, the dozens of mechanical arms floating above the stone platform were immediately activated and began to move.
Grimm snapped his fingers, and five extremely clear flaming mirrors appeared at various angles above the stone platform. Through them, Grimm could observe the part of his body that was about to be operated on from all angles.
The fluorescence in the surrounding walls gradually dissipated, and the surroundings were shrouded in darkness. Dozens of illumination crystals projected a bright and gentle light, illuminating the surroundings of the operation table.
At this moment, Grimm's expression was strangely calm.
"A.I. Chip, begin!"
With this command, the A.I. Chip immediately took over all the magic arms.
A cold light flashed in the air, and a magic arm floated in front of Grimm's chest. The sharp scalpel at the front of the instrument pierced into his chest, and a piercing sound could be heard as it cut open his flesh.
The swiftness of his movements and the accuracy of his movements simply left everyone speechless and gasping in admiration!
If it was Grimm who was controlling it, he would not have been able to do it so decisively.
Perhaps it was due to Grimm's special constitution, or because the scalpel did not damage any large blood vessels, but there was no spurt of blood. With Grimm's current vitality of 3.7, even without any spells, his skin and flesh were as tough as an Iron-Plated Rhinoceros.
Hence, it would be difficult to cut open Grimm's skin with ordinary weapons. And the magic tools used for surgery today were obviously enchanted!
After the operation was completed, the scalpel was immediately moved away. Two magic arms with humanoid hands flew to Grimm's side and gently opened up his chest.
What appeared in front of Grimm was a human heart protected by thick ribs and sternum. Although the heart had undergone some changes due to being immersed in dense fire elemental energy for a long time, its basic form and functions were not much different from a human heart.
Grimm looked on calmly, not interfering with the A.I. Chip's control.
Although he was the true owner of this body, he could not be as merciless and precise as the A.I. Chip when it came to intricate internal surgery.
As a few flywheels and knives flew towards Grimm, the ear-piercing sound of bones being cut rang out from his chest. Without the enchantment of sharpness and sturdiness, these magic arms would not have been able to damage Grimm's bones and flesh, which were protected by powerful wizard force.
The vibrations of the metal flywheels cutting through his bones and the intense pain of his flesh being torn apart were transmitted to Grimm's soul. He could only endure it silently. He had to open his eyes wide, taking in every single detail so that the A.I. Chip could perform more precise operations and control.
As the ribs were cut off one by one, Grim's heart was finally exposed.
The flywheels and knives were moved away, and more magic arms swarmed over. They began to cut off the blood vessels connecting the heart to the other organs. Every time a blood vessel was cut off, a tiny ray of heat would enter and temporarily seal it.
Grimm began to control his body at the same time. He tightened the blood vessels all over his body, slowing down the flow of blood. This would prevent a large amount of bleeding in his chest.
In the darkness, a dark red light shone.
The Balrog's Heart, which had been carefully processed, was lifted up by a tray and slowly floated to the front of the operating table. A magic arm carefully picked it up and floated beside Grimm's chest, waiting.
Grimm's gaze quickly swept across the Balrog's Heart, and he saw densely packed strange runes in the dark red tendons and flesh. These runes the size of sesame seeds covered the inside and outside of the Balrog's Heart, forming a complicated and mysterious rune formation.
With a burst of pain, the last artery connecting the heart to the heart was cut off, and the slowly wriggling heart was lifted out by the magic arm.
There was no time to hesitate at all. The new Balrog's Heart was immediately stuffed into Grimm's chest. Countless slender arms reached into it and used unimaginable witchcraft to quickly connect the blood vessels.
The entire process was complicated, but not chaotic. More than ten magic arms rose and fell, and all sorts of strange noises could be heard …
After advancing to become a Magus, Grimm's vitality and vitality far surpassed that of ordinary people. Coupled with his elemental body, even if his heart was removed, it would not cause him to die immediately.
However, this heart transplant surgery could not be carried out for too long. Otherwise, his body would be affected, and his basic vitality would be lowered.
To be honest, due to the effects of his elemental body, the body strengthening methods that were suitable for body tempering Magi were no longer effective on him. Hence, once his vitality was lowered, it would be extremely difficult to raise it again.
Ever since Grimm learned how to use the Balrog's Transformation, he would find it extremely difficult to let Grimm return to the soft, wandering style of an Elemental Magus!
