The three major Sorcerer forces …
The Northern Witches of the North Coast, the Silver Alliance of the West Coast, and the Sorcerer Association of the East Coast!
They each had their own knowledge and cultural traditions, and displayed a high degree of monopoly and xenophobia.
When it came to the Northern Witches, everyone recognized that they were fierce!
Especially fierce!
Without this fierce aura, how could a group of witches open up such a large territory in the North, where there was nothing, and let the witches' legacy not be cut off after tens of thousands of years?
Relying on this fierceness, they forced back the monsters in the Black Forest, and fought with them inch by inch for the precious land. The reason why the people of the North trusted these witches so much was because the Northern Witches opened their arms, and with courage far exceeding that of the Sorcerers, they blocked the terrifying monster tide and the invasion of the terrible monsters.
The witches were the true guardians of the North!
In contrast, the Silver Alliance was more like a miscellaneous army.
Its higher-ups were not as good at fighting as the Northern Witches, but they were good at controlling and monopolizing technology. They had floating fortresses, teleportation spell formations, magic puppet armies, large quantities of scrolls, potions, magic wands … These were all rare resources and daily consumables that the Sorcerers couldn't do without.
Monopolizing these also allowed them to earn a huge amount of resources and magic crystals.
Therefore, many people saw the Silver Alliance as a super large commercial organization, and extremely despised their identity as Sorcerers.
As for the Wizard Association of the East Coast, it was a completely orthodox large-scale Sorcerer organization.
Their biggest characteristic was the completeness and comprehensiveness of their knowledge system, as well as making the best use of the Sorcerers' talents.
In the central part of the continent, in the scattered Forest of Towers, the conquest and development of the outer realm's secondary planes were carried out in the form of families. The consumption of manpower and resources in the early stage of the Planar War was borne by individual families, while the development and resource recovery in the middle and later stages were the cornerstone of the family's continued advancement.
But in the Wizard Association, the conquest of the planes was completely led by individual Sorcerers.
There were many "explorers" in the Wizard Association. Their individual combat power might not be very strong, but they were extremely proficient in void exploration and plane search. They wandered in the depths of the endless starry sky, exploring one dangerous area after another. Every time they found an unoccupied secondary plane, they would put the plane's coordinates up for sale in the Association.
The powerful wizards in the association took turns to bid, and the highest bidder won.
The Wizard who had obtained the coordinates of the plane was responsible for recruiting a suitable team of Wizards to break through the plane barrier and establish a stable outpost camp in the secondary plane. Once the teleportation spell formation was completed, the Magus Association could take over the rest!
The subsequent conquest, occupation, and exploitation of resources would be handled by the professional Magi of the Magus Association. The Magi who had successfully taken down the outpost only needed to wait for the resources to be harvested.
Therefore, the Wizard Association was the one who maintained the ruling position in the secondary planes that they occupied, and the many wizards were just hired thugs. Just like that, some of the more powerful Magi were freed from the complicated process of plane occupation, purging, and ruling.
They used war to seize resources to strengthen themselves, and then used their powerful strength to conquer more planes. This was a sustainable development model chosen by the Sorcerer Association!
Therefore, considering the strength of the three Magus organisations, the strongest was undoubtedly the Sorcerer Association, followed by the Silver Alliance, and the Northern Witches.
However, if there was a conflict between Magi in a small area, judging from their combat power, the Northern Witches were the strongest, the Sorcerer Association second, and the Silver Alliance Magi the weakest!
This was the current power structure of the entire Magus World.
As for the scattered Forest Towers in the middle of the continent, it occupied the most population and land resources. In the end, it was just a loose alliance of Magus families. On the surface, it seemed to have the most Magi, the most people under its jurisdiction, and the most land resources, but its strength was not even worth mentioning.
The only reason why it had not been taken over by the three major organisations was because they were afraid that their rash actions would incite the other two organisations to join forces. Therefore, although the three organisations were working hard to expand their influence in the scattered Forest Towers, they were unable to make a breakthrough due to the extreme xenophobia of the local Magus families.
Although the old men of the scattered Forest Towers Association fought fiercely for power, they were very united when there were signs of the three major organisations interfering in the central region. They would rather kill than let any Magus family in the scattered Forest Towers side with one of the three major organisations!
All the families in the central region that were secretly infiltrated by the three major organisations would be silently defeated in a family war. There were no exceptions!
In any case, he had a lot of time, so Grim pulled Gargamel over to chat.
Although he had a good understanding of the three major organisations through books and actual contact, chatting with Gargamel still benefited him greatly. However, chatting with Gargamel was still very beneficial to him, and he was able to understand many of the 'secrets' that everyone knew!
Of course, in his free time, Grimm could not help but wonder how the two Magi of the Silver Alliance would build a Magus Tower. After all, back in the Knight's Dimension, the Salubo family had sent over twenty to thirty of their family's elites to barely build a model of the War Wizard's Tower in a month.
Moreover, the Silver Alliance had only sent two Magi. This … This was unbelievable to Grimm. Furthermore, the amount of stone, special metals, and Magical Gems needed to build a Wizard's Tower was also terrifying. Could the two Magi have brought all of them with them?
Of course, with the area that Grimm had chosen, the volcanic rocks there could be used locally, which would save him a lot of stone. Even so, it was still a huge amount of work. Even if the two Magi did not sleep for nine days, they would not be able to complete such a difficult task!
The more he thought about it, the more incredulous he felt!
However, Grimm could guess that they must have brought along many special magic statues used to build the tower. That was the only way to solve the problem of labor shortage. But what about the etching of Runes? If he wanted to turn the Wizard's Tower into a Wizard Facility completely controlled by the Magi, he would have to etch Runes with different functions on every stone in the Wizard's Tower.
Strengthening Runes, Magic Resistance Runes, Anti-Prophecy Runes … Not a single one of these could be left out. Then, he had to sketch out the Magical Energy Circuits and energy nodes throughout the tower, as well as add the necessary Rune Spell Formations. The huge amount of work was enough to make one collapse. Could a single Wizard complete this?
It couldn't be that the Silver Alliance had developed some kind of magic statue that could automatically etch Magical Energy Circuits and Rune Spell Formations, right? It did not seem plausible at all!
But as Grimm was making wild guesses, the nine days quickly passed.
Finally, the Wizard called Eugene stepped out of the cave and sent a message to Grimm.
Grimm led Gargamel and Sabrina and rushed into the underground cave.
A dark red 'tower' stood silently in the center of the cave group. The body of the tower was made from a large amount of volcanic rocks. Coupled with the abundant fire element energy within, the entire Wizard's Tower was glowing red.
If Grimm's guess was correct, the well of lava he had discovered had become a part of the foundation of the Wizard's Tower, and the Energy Chamber of the Wizard's Tower was connected to the sea of lava below. This also meant that the "tower" would never run out of energy.
At the very least, it would never run out of fire element energy!
As Grimm approached the Wizard's Tower, a pair of golden doors at the bottom of the Wizard's Tower slowly opened. Three Wizards of the Silver Alliance were waiting for Grimm inside.
In the hands of the Spell Formation Master was a strange crystal that shone with a dazzling light.
"This is the Control Crystal for the Core Spell Formation of the Wizard's Pagoda. You need to use it to activate the Rune Spell Formation of the entire Wizard's Pagoda. Only then will the Wizard's Pagoda be truly opened. Alright, you can enter alone to complete the Soul Validation! "
A hint of excitement appeared on Grimm's handsome face. He nodded silently and took the strange crystal.
There seemed to be a strange magical energy flowing within the sturdy, cold, transparent crystal … Grimm raised the crystal and studied it for a moment, then nodded at the three of them before slowly walking into the Wizard's Pagoda alone.
There were five levels to the Wizard's Pagoda. The first thing he saw upon entering was a giant Wizard Hall. This would be the main public venue for Wizard Apprentices in the future. In the future, this place might be packed with people and have all sorts of Wizard Facilities, but now it was just an empty hall.
In addition, Grim saw a small library on the left of the hall, and the acolytes' residences on the right. There was a row of small stone rooms, and the furnishings in the rooms were all gone.
The spiral staircase leading to the upper level was in the corner of the hall. As it had not been carefully polished, the simple stone steps and walls looked crude and crude.
When Grimm held the Control Crystal in his hand, the internal structure of the Wizard's Pagoda was completely projected into his mind. However, the Elemental Altar in the Energy Room had not been unsealed, and the Core Spell Formation of the Wizard's Pagoda had not taken over the smaller Spell Formations scattered around the body of the Wizard's Pagoda. As such, the entire Wizard's Pagoda was still in a dormant state, unable to respond to Grimm's commands.
As he stepped onto the spiral staircase, a few unique Wizard Incantations and Rune Hand Gestures were projected in front of Grimm. Only by chanting the incantations with the hand gestures would a temporary tunnel leading to the storage of resources in the first underground level and the Energy Room in the second underground level be opened.
Otherwise, the spiral staircase would only lead to the second underground level.
This also meant that anyone without the control rights would not be able to get close to the storage of resources and the Energy Room!
