"You want me to leave the Tower of Destiny?" Grim yelled in disbelief.
"I'm not asking you to leave. I'm asking you to leave!" Alice sighed helplessly.
"Is there a difference?"
"Of course!" Alice smiled bitterly, "Because the former is as the master of the Tower of Destiny, while the latter is as an ally!"
"Since you know that we are allies, why did you help us when you needed our strength the most …"
"Because you're a wizard, and this is the territory of the Northern Witches!" Alice answered straightforwardly.
"So you're saying that my existence has caused unnecessary trouble for your identity?" Grim narrowed his eyes. This was the first time he had come into contact with a group of witches, and he instinctively felt uncomfortable.
"Yes!" Alice sighed bitterly once more. "Normally, if I had the strength of a Tier 3 or Tier 4, no one would bother me with this issue. But now … "
"What happened?"
"I've told you everything about my advancement. You know that I destroyed the soul projection of the first Witch of Destiny, so her main body in the outer realm must have sensed it. Although she can't enter the Sorcerer World, she can still pressure me through some secret means. "
"For example?"
"For example, they could question me through a certain witch leader to the Witch Council. I'm a Witch of Destiny through the War of Destiny, and I've obtained the recognition of the law of destiny. They can't deny this. But … they can question me for going against the tradition of the Northern Witches and submitting to a wizard! "
"What kind of bullsh * t tradition is that? As far as I know, there are wizards in many Wizard Towers in the North. "
"They're all subordinate wizards!" Alice rubbed her forehead and stared at Grim with her charming big eyes, "Do you want me to shout in front of all the witches in the Witch Council that you're my boy toy?"
Grim's tall body trembled slightly.
When he thought of Alice pointing at his nose and shouting "He's my boy toy" in front of thousands of witches in a tall and spacious hall, Grim felt a chill run down his spine. He couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.
"Can't we say we're allies?" Grim retorted weakly.
"What do you think?" Alice rolled her eyes. "The tradition of the Northern Witches has always been that women are supreme. There are even many extreme witches who choose female subordinates to manage the mortal territories under their jurisdiction. They are very hostile to those who violate the traditions of witches! "
"Is this what you saw with your astrology last night?"
"This is only part of it, not everything." Alice's expression suddenly turned serious. "Due to the rules of fate, I can't tell you the details. Because it involved some deep secrets of the Northern witches. Once I say it, it will definitely trigger the rules and cause unpredictable changes. So … "
"Understood!" Grim let out a deep sigh. "Then I'll be leaving now …"
"Come with me!"
Under Alice's lead, the two quickly arrived at a secret room on the 15th floor.
There were no items or decorations in this huge space, only a huge and mysterious spell formation was etched on the floor.
"Teleportation array?" Grim exclaimed softly.
He had seen this type of spell formation before. The Sarubo Family had used teleportation arrays for a few long-distance teleportations. The one in front of him was obviously a teleportation array.
"This is the Tower of Destiny's teleportation array. It can directly teleport you to the scattered Tower Forest region. This will save you from the pain of a long and arduous journey through the Dark Forest. I'll also give you the coordinates and access to this teleportation array. This way, if you need to come here in the future, you can come directly to the Tower of Destiny. "
Saying this, Alice separated a ball of light from the rune crystal that controlled the tower. Grim grabbed it and fused it into his body.
[Beep. Spiritual force data connection request detected. Requesting host's instruction?]
"Connection!"
Very quickly, a strange set of spatial coordinates flowed into Grim's mind, and was quickly stored by the A.I. Chip. At the same time, a more complicated and massive set of data that contained a mysterious force flowed into him. If not for the A.I. Chip, Grim would probably only be able to forcefully memorize it with his powerful spiritual force. It would be impossible for him to analyse it more thoroughly.
Ever since the ball of white light fused into his body, Grim could clearly sense every change in the teleportation array beneath him. Grim even had a vague feeling that if the A.I. Chip was given some time to analyse the contents of the control authority, his control over the teleportation array would surpass even that of Alice, the owner of the tower.
After entering the teleportation array, Grim stood still and smiled at Alice, "Continue to keep that Heqila Resonance Crystal. That way, you can look for me directly if you need anything. You have to be careful while you're working hard here … "
Before he could finish speaking, a youthful and fiery body threw itself into his arms. Immediately after, Grimm's lips were sealed by another pair of fiery red lips.
After a long while, Alice placed her hands on Grim's chest and took a step back, carefully looking at his handsome and robust face.
"Thank you for everything you've done for me!" Alice muttered, "I only hope that you can understand that no matter what decision you make, I will always stand by your side …"
Grim stuck out his tongue and licked his lips that had been bitten by Alice. Looking at the beauty whose cheeks were gradually turning red, his heart was burning with passion.
"These are some things I found in the warehouse. They're all useful to you. Take them with you! Remember, after I've stabilized myself, you have to remember to come back to see me, and bring Sister Mary along … "
Alice gently stuffed a dimensional bag into Grim's arms and took a step back.
The milky white halo of the teleportation array gradually engulfed Grim's figure.
After a moment, with a slight buzzing sound, the spatial fluctuations in the teleportation array suddenly intensified, and a dazzling white light filled her vision. When everything gradually calmed down and the white light dissipated, the teleportation array was once again revealed to be empty. Grim's tall figure could no longer be seen.
Alice inexplicably shed two streams of tears.
… …
Accompanied by a strong buzzing sound, the white light flickered.
Grim felt a sudden dizziness in his head, and only regained control of his body when the spatial fluctuations in the outside world stopped.
Grimm held his forehead and stood there for a while, before slowly opening his eyes and looking around the unfamiliar teleportation room.
"Welcome to Isbeth City! Judging from the spatial waymark, you've teleported here from the north. However, this spatial waymark seems unfamiliar. Which Magus built this teleportation array? " A middle-aged Magus in a white robe appeared in front of Grim, holding a quill and a sheepskin book. Looking at the silver badge on his chest, he should be the administrator of the scattered Wizard Association of Taryn.
"The Tower of Destiny!" Grim nodded at the other party and prepared to leave the teleportation room.
"The Tower of Destiny?" The white-robed administrator bit on his quill and tilted his head, thinking for a moment, "That Magus Tower has not been connected to the teleportation network for thousands of years. Could it be that it has been reactivated? Hey … By the way, you haven't paid for the teleportation maintenance fees yet. "
"Why do I have to pay? Isn't all the energy required for teleportation gathered on the other side of the teleportation array? Why do I have to pay for this side as well? "Grim was instantly confused.
"Hmph, I can tell that this is the first time you've experienced long-distance teleportation, right?" The white-robed Magus snorted coldly, "Even though most of the energy required for teleportation is borne by the initiator, as the receiver, our Wizard Formation here has to withstand a certain amount of spatial shockwaves. So in order to better protect the Teleportation Wizard Formation and serve more of our friends, we have to charge a small amount of maintenance fees. "
"How much?"
"Three hundred Magic Crystals!"
Grim was speechless.
The last time he followed a merchant team through the Dark Forest to the north, it only cost him two hundred Magic Crystals. But today, he had to pay three hundred Magic Crystals to teleport here from the Tower of Destiny. Under normal circumstances, how much did he have to pay to teleport to the Tower of Destiny?
The other party quickly provided an answer to this question.
Four thousand Magic Crystals!
And this was because the teleportation array in Isbeth City was closest to the north, which was why the fee was so 'low'. If Grim wanted to teleport from the center of the scattered Wizard Forest to the Tower of Destiny, the fee would be as high as five thousand Magic Crystals. If he wanted to teleport from the Silver Alliance on the west side of the continent to the north, the fee would skyrocket to tens of thousands of Magic Crystals.
Hearing this basic fee, Grim forced himself not to let the muscles on his face twitch.
No wonder so many low-level Magi would rather take a Flying Ship or follow a merchant team to cross the Dark Forest, even though there were Wizard Towers and Teleportation Spell Formations everywhere. They were unwilling to use the Teleportation Spell Formations. So the main reason was that the cost of teleportation was ridiculously high …
According to the explanation of the white-robed Magus, the reason why the Teleportation Spell Formation was so expensive was because it consumed a large amount of energy stored in the Wizard's Pagoda. That was why they had to charge a fee to make up for the loss of the Wizard's Pagoda.
Hearing this, Grim could not help but feel a fire burning in his heart.
He still had a Void Stone hidden in his Storage Belt. If he used it to build a Teleportation Spell Formation, he could automatically replenish the Space Energy consumed. Wouldn't that mean that he would have an endless supply of Magic Crystals?
