Grimm needed time to grow.
Although he firmly believed that with his two lives and the help of the biochip, he would not be any weaker than those talented geniuses, he still needed time to grow. Just like how young beasts needed time and space to grow, even if Grimm had wings, he would still need a lot of time and a lot of resources to grow.
He was currently at a weak stage, and if he could find a senior Apprentice to protect him, it would undoubtedly be of great benefit to his growth. Therefore, when Mary took the initiative to spread her wings, he was more than willing to do so.
However, this kind of protection was not one-sided. To a certain extent, Grimm also wanted to show his value and try to make this "relationship" more like an alliance rather than a follower.
If Grimm was not mistaken, Simba's soul was still in the head. If he did not deal with it in time, he was afraid that his spoils of war would fade a lot.
No matter what, Simba's strength was comparable to that of a senior Apprentice, and it would be a good material for witchcraft, be it for soul experiments or voodoo rituals.
There were a total of three outsiders who broke into the magic swamp. Although they didn't kill Alice, they made her bleed a little. That arrogant guy was probably going to lose a layer of skin even if he did not die. As for the other two, Mad Girl and Hawkeye had already taken care of them, so Grimm did not have to worry about them.
Mary was obviously more interested in the blood of the other two outsiders. Without saying anything to Grimm, she transformed into a vampire bat and rushed into the mist. Grimm had no choice but to sneak back to the Wizard Tower with his plentiful loot and a frightened look on his face.
… …
Countless blurred shadows swayed in front of her, and the strong sense of spatial dizziness made it difficult for her to distinguish directions.
However, with the perception of space in her talent, Alice struggled to break free from the void storm, opened a spatial crack, and went back to the original world.
In the void, a zigzagging spatial crack opened, and Alice fell headfirst out of it.
Dong …
"Ouch!"
Alice, who had almost lost all her strength, hit her head on the hard and cold stone floor, and could not help but cry out in pain.
Damn bastards, damn vampires, don't let me recover my strength. When I recover, I will definitely …
Alice, who was cursing and complaining in her heart, suddenly stopped moving. She widened her only eye and looked at the terrifying figure that appeared in front of her in horror. An intense fear gripped her heart, making her not dare to act rashly again.
Alice looked around in confusion, only to find that she was in a dark and sealed stone room. This was not the escape point that she had set up for herself in advance, and the person standing in front of her was not any sorcerer-apprentice that she was familiar with.
Looking at his skinny and withered body, looking at his signature grey wizard robe and tall hat, looking at his sinister and strange smile …
Alice couldn't help but yell, "Wizard Anderson!"
The withered old man standing in the field was the master of the Swamp Tower, the Tier 1 Wizard Anderson.
He undoubtedly had the highest management authority in the Swamp Tower. Therefore, the teleportation that Alice used for her last escape was unsurprisingly changed by him, making this little loli who had suffered so much directly teleport herself in front of him.
The horror of a real Wizard was not something that ordinary people could imagine.
Seriously speaking, from the beginning of the apprenticeship period, most sorcerer-apprentices had already started to deeply modify their own bodies. In their eyes, whether the body was healthy or not, whether the appearance was handsome or not, was far less important than whether the strength was strong or not.
If someone were to come forward and do the statistics, they would find that within the more than 50 sorcerer-apprentices in the Swamp Tower, less than half of them were considered to have pure human bodies.
Bloodline modification, biological modification, witchcraft pollution mutation … These were the direct results of their efforts to become stronger. The boundary between humans and non-humans was actually not that clear in the sorcerer world.
Even sorcerer-apprentices were like this, then compared to them, official sorcerers whose life essence had obviously undergone a sublimation had pushed the modification of the flesh body to the limit.
To be able to endure the cruel and painful modification process, to be able to endure the long and lonely exploration of knowledge, to be able to use all means to make themselves stronger, how could a sorcerer who had gone through all kinds of tribulations be pure and kind?
When it came to sorcerers in the sorcerer world, people's most intuitive impression was that they were powerful, sinister, evil, and cold. Although they were known as the servants of knowledge, forever walking on the path of gathering knowledge, the methods they used to obtain knowledge were definitely not benevolent or peaceful.
As a large plane rarely seen in the entire multiverse, the sorcerer world inevitably enslaved thousands of small and medium-sized planes. They frantically extracted resources and knowledge from those defeated planes to arm and strengthen their own strength. A sorcerer family without their own private plane could not even be considered as the bottom in the sorcerer continent.
And at the forefront of the sorcerer world's plane conquest were sorcerers who were armed to the teeth. And a level 1 sorcerer like Anderson, placed in the vast battlefield of plane conquest, was merely the lowest level of cannon fodder.
Yes, the lowest combat unit of the sorcerer world's plane conquest army was a level 1 sorcerer. As for sorcerer-apprentices, these rookies who could not even adapt to the plane's laws did not even have the qualifications to be cannon fodder.
Therefore, the more sorcerers she had experienced and met, the more Alice was filled with awe and respect for them.
Although her innate spatial ability was already considered a top-grade innate ability, in front of these official sorcerers, she was still just a canary that could be easily crushed. In the sorcerer world, innate ability only represented one's potential, not one's strength. For tens of thousands of years, how many geniuses had tragically died in the dark corners?
Therefore, when Alice realized she was facing an official sorcerer, she immediately restrained all her arrogance and impatience. Even though the heavy injuries on her body caused her to break out in cold sweat, she still bowed as if she did not feel anything and waited for the other party's interrogation.
"Today, I am in a very bad mood because a few little bugs actually snuck into my garden while I was doing my experiment. What, little guy from Fanny's Hut, who instructed you to trespass into my territory? " Wizard Anderson's gloomy face did not show any emotions. Even Alice could not help but shiver when she heard his cold tone.
"Dear Wizard Anderson, it was my teacher Ms. Deborah who asked me to come here to deliver a letter to you." Alice did not dare to delay, so she quickly expressed the purpose of her visit.
"That crazy woman Deborah?" Anderson frowned in confusion, "You are the genius apprentice that Deborah accepted 3 years ago, right? What, you want to come here to practice your skills now that you have some ability? Hehehe … Little girl, didn't your teacher tell you that I hate being disturbed the most? Oh right, those two little bugs are also from Fanny's Hut? "
Alice bowed respectfully while trembling with fear. She hurriedly replied, "No, we met them at the periphery of the swamp. We only came here because we accepted a mission. One of them is from Mandasor Academy, and the other is from the Black Hand Association. "
"Mission? You came to my magic swamp because you accepted a mission? "
"Yes, we all accepted a trial mission from our own organizations. That's why we trespassed here!"
"Damn it, damn it … I knew those bastards from the Scattered Forest Tower Association would not let this place go. This is a magic swamp! This is my private territory, and those bastards even turned this place into a mission point. I'll definitely report their damned behavior to the council at the next Magus Conference … "
Maybe Wizard Anderson had been poked in his sore spot, and he became even crazier than before. He began to curse someone in the distance with a hoarse voice. When he was so excited, Anderson even used 7 to 8 different languages, but Alice could only understand or recognize 3 of them.
After cursing to his heart's content, Wizard Anderson suddenly stopped. His cold gaze once again landed on Alice's body.
"Since you still know how to be respectful, I won't keep you here. But since you trespassed my garden and destroyed it, I will not let you go unpunished. Let this be a lesson for you! " Following Wizard Anderson's long wizard staff, a green light suddenly flew into Alice's empty right eye socket.
At the same time, a strange ring appeared beneath Alice's feet. After a few flashes of magic fluorescence, a bright light flashed, and Alice disappeared from the stone chamber.
Almost at the same time that Alice was forcefully teleported away, the two sorcerer-apprentices who were still rampaging in the depths of the swamp also had the same teleportation halo appear below them. With a flash of light, they were expelled from the magic swamp.
… …
At the entrance of the magic swamp.
It was a desolate and desolate little hill.
In front of it was the magic swamp that was covered in thick fog. Looking from afar, other than the potholes of the swamp, there were only thorns and bushes growing in a disorderly manner and wormwood that looked like a ghost's head. There was nothing special about it.
After a dazzling flash of light, Alice fell to the ground once again.
Before she could get up from the ground, a white light flashed, and two familiar figures appeared in her sight.
Alice stood up while groaning. She hurriedly took out all kinds of bottles and jars from her waist bag and began to recover from her injuries. Although she had already left the magic swamp, she still did not dare to complain to that Mr. Wizard.
