Grimm simply cleaned up the battlefield and summoned the Inferno Tyrant back to his side to protect himself. He then kept the Rotting One and the Roaring One before he exited his Flame Demon form.
As soon as he returned to his human form, Grimm cried out in pain and knelt on the ground. His entire body was surrounded by a thick and evil aura of the abyss.
Grimm had also paid a heavy price in the fierce battle just now. The abyssal flames from the Flame Demon's Heart that had been unsealed in advance had seriously invaded and infected his body. If he did not find a way to expel this aura as soon as possible, it was very likely that he would mutate into a demonic creature from the lower realm.
However, Grimm could not leave at this moment.
He forcefully endured the pain and once again used his strong willpower to force the flame energy in his body into the Flame Demon's Heart, then decisively sealed it again.
If he transformed into a Flame Demon, the flame energy that spewed out from the Flame Demon's Heart would be a great supplement. However, once he returned to his human form, the flame energy was too violent and difficult to control. If Grimm's body had not been elementalized, he would probably have been burned to death by the flame energy in his body!
Grimm knelt on the scorched ground in pain and stretched out a trembling finger. Bright red flames immediately ignited at the tip of his finger. Grimm drew a line in the air, and the flames left twisted and strange scorch marks in the air. Every time a flame rune was completed, it would naturally absorb the fire elemental particles in the surrounding air and then burn.
As soon as the flame rune appeared, it would be strangely swallowed by the Flame Demon's Heart. With every flame rune swallowed, the abyssal aura on Grimm's body would weaken a little.
However, no matter how hard he tried, the evil aura that was deeply immersed in his blood was still difficult to get rid of.
It seemed that such a simple and crude method would not be able to get rid of the source of the abyssal aura. He could only try to find some suitable resources in the Magus Tower.
Grimm struggled to stand up and suddenly raised his hand to point in a direction.
"Bring me there to have a look!"
As the order was given, the Inferno Tyrant bent down and reached out to grab him, then took large strides and ran in the direction he pointed.
In the deep and gloomy Dark Forest, a tall flame figure was striding forward.
Its body was even taller than those towering ancient trees, and wherever it passed, the trees were set ablaze, and the earth was burning. The raging flames turned everything into ashes, leaving behind a charred path of ashes.
In this stretch of darkness, the Inferno Tyrant's surging power and terrifying aura that could overwhelm everything were as eye-catching and eye-catching as this flaming corridor. Everyone who sensed its aura, regardless of whether they were birds or beasts, fled as fast as they could.
The whole forest was in a mess. Countless birds and beasts rushed out of their nests and fled into the distance without looking back. For a moment, the forest was filled with birds and beasts. It was so chaotic that it seemed like the end of the world.
The Inferno Tyrant completely disregarded these weak and small life forms, minding his own business as he pushed aside the ancient trees that were blocking his way, and trudged through the forest step by step.
Finally, in a dense forest eleven miles northwest of the battlefield, the Inferno Tyrant stopped in his tracks.
Following the spread of a large area of the flame ring, the previously impenetrable forest had already been burned into a sea of fire. And in the sea of fire, a human-shaped boulder suddenly attracted Grimm's attention.
Grimm controlled the Inferno Tyrant to grab the boulder, and with a sweep of his Elemental Vision, he saw Alice's familiar face on the golem's gray face. But fortunately, although Alice's aura was weak, she was not really dead after all.
In the golem's body, a strange energy aura surged out continuously, protecting her internal organs from being completely petrified. Otherwise, with her apprentice-level vitality, she would not have been able to hold on until Grimm arrived to save her.
It was that Void Stone!
He really did not expect Alice to seal that Void Stone into her body in order to quickly increase her own strength. Although this would cause continuous damage to her body, it had also accidentally saved his little life.
Just as Grimm was plotting how to save Alice, at the bottom of a cliff not far away, a piece of gray rock suddenly peeled off. Then, the goblin Kabi threw off the gray cloak that covered his body, and frantically ran to the Inferno Tyrant's side.
"Master, Master … It's great to see that you're safe and sound!" Kabi saw Alice's stone statue in the Inferno Tyrant's hands, and his small green bean-like eyes blinked, and actually squeezed out two drops of tears. "It's a pity … Lady Alice … is … is …"
Speaking of the heartache, Kabi actually bawled loudly.
"Alright, wait until she's really dead before you mourn!" The blood in Grimm's body was boiling, and Alice was anxiously waiting for treatment, so he did not have the time to waste with him. "Alice is still alive, we need to leave quickly …"
After saying that, without waiting for Kabi to react, the Inferno Tyrant grabbed him, turned around, and ran wildly in the direction of Fedenan City.
… …
Lord Fire Demon had returned again.
Moreover, it was said that he had also brought back the heads of two Magi this time.
Rumors spread rapidly in Fedenan City, and every Sorcerer-Apprentice belonging to the Salubo Family was excitedly passing on different versions of news and rumors with shining eyes.
According to their descriptions, this newly promoted Wizard Grimm had become the strongest among all the Magi in the family, and his limelight had even completely overshadowed Wizard Cogan, who had always been the leader of the official Magi.
Following the return of the Fire Demon, the Magi of the Salubo Family also began to become active. There were even rumors that the Salubo Family seemed to be secretly preparing to start a war with some hostile forces.
This was undoubtedly the topic that the surrounding families and Magi organizations were most concerned about, and most interested in.
Therefore, in a short period of time, many people with ulterior motives swarmed into Fedenan City, inquiring about the movements of the Salubo Family …
Fedenan City, Magus Tower.
In a secret room on the twelfth floor.
A lazy and bored Sanazar was reclining on a spacious stone bed. A thick green mist covered her body, making it difficult for others to see her appearance.
Wizard Cogan, who was in charge of the daily affairs of the family, bowed and stood on the right side, reporting the recent movements of the family in detail.
"… After Grimm borrowed a batch of resources such as Sea Agate, Green-headed Ginseng, Water of Asu, and other resources from the family warehouse, he never came out of his residence …
The Alice he brought back is still receiving treatment at Wizard Felicia's place. The power of petrification has already penetrated into her lungs, and it's quite troublesome to get rid of it … "
"What about the two heads he brought back? Did you find out where they came from? " Sanazar changed her posture and picked up a large piece of Ground Fire Dragon meat from a huge tray in front of her with her fingertips. It was at least ten kilograms of Ground Fire Dragon meat, and she began to chomp on it in the green mist.
This kind of fire dragon with the ability to spit out sulfur and poisonous fire could only be found in some volcanic areas. Their flesh was sour and tough, and it was comparable to leather armor tanned with the skin of an armored rhinoceros. It was also highly toxic, and was not suitable for humans to eat.
However, Ground Fire Dragons were still a type of Drakes. Long-term consumption of them could still nourish the power of the Drakes' bloodline. Therefore, it became a snack for the rank 3 Wizard Sanazar, and she would eat one or two from time to time.
In the Fedenan City Wizard Tower's mission list, there was a long-term mission to purchase Ground Fire Dragon meat.
After hearing Master Sanazar's question, Wizard Cogan bowed even lower.
"The origins of the two heads have been investigated.
The Giant Serpent Wizard was called Sark, and he came from the Seaman Family in the Rashia region. It was a famous Wizard family with the bloodline of a mutated snake monster. Their strength was ranked around 130, and they were an intermediate Wizard family. The head of the family, Dibas, had the strength of a rank 3 Wizard, and after transforming, he had the strength of a rank 4 Wizard.
According to our investigation, it was not the family's idea to kill Grimm, but this Wizard Sark secretly accepted the mission.
I've already talked to the old guys from the Tallinn Association. They approved the evidence we submitted, and they allowed us to take revenge on the Seaman Family, or make them pay a high price to end this matter.
The Bloody Butcher doesn't have any family backing him, and he's just a wandering Wizard. I heard that he appeared in Mota City a while ago, but we haven't found any direct evidence of his relationship with the Black Hand Association.
We also have some clues about the female Illusionist who escaped. However, there must be some powerful force supporting him. Recently, we haven't been able to get any results from their divination. It seems like all divination spells have been blocked by them. "
The crunching sound in the green mist was getting clearer and clearer.
"It seems like these people are well prepared. If they successfully kill Grimm, I'm afraid the fortune teller we hired won't even be able to find a single strand of hair of the enemy! " Sanazar ordered with dissatisfaction, "Send a message to the Seaman Family. If they can't pay enough compensation, I don't mind eating a few of their core members. Also, do you know how Grimm defeated them?"
"No!" Kou Gen shook his head helplessly, "The battlefield was covered up by the other party. I can't see anything with divination spells. I've sent people to check the battlefield, it seems … seems … "
"Seems what?"
"It seems like Grim defeated Sark with his own strength!"
"You mean, Grimm defeated an elite wizard and two veteran wizards by himself? Does he have the ability to do that? "
"Maybe!" Wizard Kou Gen frowned and explained to the elder who usually didn't care about the family business, "He seems to have a strange ability to control elemental puppets. Whether it's the number or the quality, he's way better than those puppet masters."
"Elemental puppets?" Sanazar couldn't help but sneer, "It seems like the next time someone tries to kill that kid, they'll have to hire a bunch of sealing masters! Hmph, a bunch of trash. Three wizards who have lived for 300 to 400 years couldn't even defeat a new wizard. What a quick death! "
Wizard Kou Gen shook his head with a bitter smile. He didn't dare to reply.
"Go and tell that kid Grim that the family is on his side in this matter. Those who should fight back will fight back, and those who should fight back will fight back. Kill anyone who dares to test the Sarubo Family! The family would split the profits with him, and the four families would get sixty percent of the profits. I'll take care of all the rank 2 and above wizards for him. Let him do whatever he wants … "
