For no reason at all, several black lines appeared on everyone's forehead at the same time.
As the person in question, Grimm's expression became even more awkward. With an angry snort, a dazzling red light burst forth from his body. Fire elements quickly gathered in the air, forming a flaming armor on his burly body.
The air around Grimm suddenly became hot and hazy.
According to common sense, Grimm, a Grade 1 Magus, daring to do this in front of a Grade 2 Witch, Nina, was already a slight offense. If Sanazar was not present, even if Nina punished him, the Sarubo Family would not be able to pursue the matter.
But now that Lady Sanazar was here, Grimm had to act tough!
But … Nina did not seem to notice Grimm's offense. Instead, she raised her eyebrows and smiled, a hint of admiration in her eyes.
Among the three major Magus organizations, the Northern Witches were a group of women, but they were famous for their fighting prowess. The reason why the Northern Witches were able to firmly occupy the Sorcerer Continent, where magical beasts were powerful, was because of their fierce fighting style.
As for the leaders, deputy leaders, and chiefs of the various Witch Factions, they were all purely violent and ferocious.
Perhaps it was due to her personality, but when Nina saw Grimm, a Wizard with a tough style, she suddenly had a good impression of him!
"Lady Nina, since you're here, why don't we get straight to the point? Alice is one of my people. If you come here and threaten to kill her, you're challenging the dignity of the Sorcerers in the scattered Tallinn region! "Grimm warned sternly.
Nina was indeed a powerful Wizard who had been through many battles. She was only distracted for a moment, but she had already regained her usual decisiveness and coldness.
"We can make it up to you!" Nina smiled calmly, "You're the Wizard who subdued Alice, right? Since you've just advanced, you must be lacking in various resources. As long as you ask for it, we, the Deceit Witches, will not bargain with you. This will save you a hundred years of time, and you won't have to run around and risk your life anymore. Why not? "
After listening to Nina's words, before Grim could react, Endor, the Poison Witch, who had been standing next to him, suddenly changed her expression.
With an uneasy mood, Endor's sinister eyes hidden under the wide brim of his hat suddenly stared at Grim. As someone with experience, she knew very well how tempting Nina's promise was to a newly advanced Magus!
In the Sorcerer Continent, the development of sorcerers was basically like this.
After advancing to the next rank, one would usually need to find a place to settle down and adapt to the lifestyle and social circle of a Sorcerer. More importantly, he had to adjust his mentality from the level of an acolyte to that of a wizard.
At this stage, most Magi's spiritual force fluctuated around 1 point, and the time span was about 10 years.
Once one's strength had stabilized, every Magus would discover that just by relying on daily meditation, their spiritual force would increase at a tortoise-like rate. It was simply mind-blowing. Even if he meditated day after day, it was still very difficult to clearly feel the growth of his mental strength.
Some busybody Magi had once estimated that even if a newly advanced Magus meditated day and night, it would take at least 87 years to raise his spiritual force from 1 point to 5 points and become a veteran Magus. And to raise his spiritual force to 10 points and become an elite Magus, it would take at least 273 years.
And this number of years did not include the time spent by each Magus on witchcraft experiments and searching for resources and knowledge outside.
Therefore, it was simply impossible to reach the limit of a Grade 1 Magus's spiritual force by relying on meditation alone!
Therefore, for those who were interested in becoming a Grade 2 Magus, it was simply impossible to become a Grade 2 Magus by staying in the Sorcerer Tower and relying only on witchcraft experiments and meditation every day.
The only thing that could change this situation was the power of knowledge and the assistance of resources.
Therefore, once a newly advanced Magus stabilized his spiritual force and found that his strength had stagnated, he could not help but wander the Sorcerer Continent and search for knowledge and resources everywhere. Nearly 20% of the newly advanced Magi in the Sorcerer Continent died in various expeditions to search for resources.
At this time, if there was a large amount of resources, it would definitely save a newly advanced Magus the hard work of running around, and also reduce many unnecessary risks, allowing them to grow quickly and safely.
Take her, the Toxic Witch Endor, for example. Whether it was in the north or the central continent, she had already made a name for herself. However, up until now, with more than half of her life gone, her spiritual force had barely crossed the threshold of 10 points, and she had entered the ranks of elite Magi.
With this speed, there was absolutely no chance for her to reach the threshold of a Grade 2 Magus, and she would lose the chance to extend her life.
The reason for all this was that she had been forced to wander around due to the lack of resources in the first half of her life.
Therefore, when she suddenly heard Nina's temptation, Poison Witch Endor could not help but worry that Grim would suddenly change his mind.
After all, the temptation was too great!
If it had been her in the past, she might not have been able to resist it.
Grim smiled faintly.
At this moment, his eyes flashed with the light of wisdom, the cold lines on his face, and the trace of a devilish smile on his lips gave off an unfathomable feeling!
Grim almost wanted to laugh maniacally in his heart.
Spiritual force increasing too slowly? Haha … His current problem was the opposite. What he needed to worry about was not being too slow, but too fast.
It had only been two or three years since he had become an official Magus, and his spiritual force had increased from less than 1 point to the current 4 points. Of course, most of this was due to the feedback from the Knight's Plane, but his own careful management and accumulation were also indispensable.
At this time, what he needed more was to stabilize and solidify his spiritual force that had suddenly skyrocketed. As for resources and knowledge, he was not lacking in them. The spoils of war he had obtained from many battles were enough for him to live comfortably for the first hundred years of his life, so the other party's conditions …
"Lady Nina, I'm very sorry, but I have to reject your kindness!" Grim rejected her straightforwardly.
Nina's expression changed, and the smile on her face disappeared completely. She asked coldly, "Are you sure you want to reject the goodwill of a powerful Witch family? You have to know that you are rejecting resources and magic crystals worth 200,000 magic crystals, as well as the goodwill of the Deceiving Witches! "
"Of course I know what I'm rejecting!" Grimm's face was suddenly filled with excitement. "But no matter how many resources you give me, I won't hand Alice over!"
"Why? Using 200,000 magic crystals to buy a little apprentice witch, you … "
"Lady Nina, I'm very sorry, but you are mistaken! Alice is not an apprentice witch, she just became a witch yesterday … "
"Ah …"
"Gah …"
Not only was Nina shocked, even Endor, who had been listening by the side, was dumbfounded.
How was this possible? She had raised Alice, and she had just become a Quasi Witch not long ago. How could she become a witch so quickly? Was he deliberately deceiving Nina?
Not only Endor, but even the Witch Nina also looked at the green mist not far away.
From within the green mist, Sarnazzar's ear-piercing hiss rang out once more.
"I can confirm this. That little girl has successfully advanced yesterday. That's why our Salubo family doesn't have an apprentice witch like Alice, but we do have a real witch, Alice! "
Nina looked at the green mist doubtfully, and then at Endor. Although she was skeptical, she did not dare to question the veracity of a Tier 3 Witch's words.
Although Alice's advancement was somewhat unexpected, Nina only thought that the information she had collected was wrong. She was not as shocked as Endor.
No, the more it was like this, the more she could not let Alice stay!
After thinking this through, Nina's azure eyes flashed with a cold glint.
"300,000! If you are willing to give up Alice, I … "
"Lady Nina, are you sure that a Fate Witch candidate who has advanced to become a witch is only worth 300,000?" Grim's words were filled with ridicule.
Nina's mouth could not help but twitch.
"400,000!"
Grim did not reply, but the disdain in his eyes was glaring.
"Fifty …" Nina was already gnashing her teeth. The trace of admiration that had sprouted from the bottom of her heart had now disappeared. She glared at Grim with a ferocious gaze, like a pair of glowing green eyes in a dark forest.
Five hundred thousand magic crystals was more than enough to hire a rank 2 Magus to be his bodyguard for two years!
Sarnazzar's sinister laughter rang out from within the green mist.
It seemed that even she was not completely indifferent to this price!
Poison Centipede Endor, who was waiting by the side, opened his mouth wider and wider. Looking at the changing scenes in the hall, she already felt that her brain couldn't keep up with her eyes.
Oh my god, 500,000 magic crystals … With her reputation as a Poison Woman, she had accepted the Moya family's commission to stay in the scattered Tower Forest area, and the family's annual tribute was only 3,000 magic crystals. Yet, Nina was actually willing to exchange 500,000 magic crystals for a new witch?
500,000 magic crystals was probably equivalent to the total income of the Moya family in the scattered Tower Forest area for half a year!
While Endor's sluggish brain was still struggling with the disparity between five hundred thousand and three thousand, Grimm's cold and deep voice rang in her ears.
"I still refuse!"
"Why?" Nina's eyes were red. She took a step forward and stared fiercely at Grim, the tip of her nose almost touching the tip of her nose.
"Why?" Poison Centipede Endor muttered to himself. To be honest, at this moment, even she wanted to know why.
"Because I've fallen in love with Alice!"
