The two parties once again met in the Wizard's Pagoda.
They had not seen each other for ten days, but the newly built Wizard's Pagoda seemed to have gone through hundreds of years of vicissitudes. Both the body of the Wizard's Pagoda and the lava hall where the Wizard's Pagoda was located were filled with the terrifying aftermath of a great battle.
The last time they met, the place was still dark, with only Glow Rocks, Night Illuminating Crystals, and phosphorescent moss, lichens, and fungi giving off a dim light.
But this time, what they saw was a lava hall shrouded in a blurry red light!
Inside the cave, all external attachments were soaked in the sea of lava. All the stone pillars, rock walls, and soil that could not withstand the scorching heat of the lava were swept away, leaving only volcanic rocks and lava rocks that could withstand the erosion of high temperature.
Therefore, compared to the last time, the topography of this place was simply earth-shattering and unrecognizable.
The walls around the lava hall were red on the bottom and black on top. The difference in texture was even more eye-catching, allowing the few people who came to visit to understand the pain and suffering the Wizard's Pagoda had gone through over the past few days.
Looking at the battered body of the Wizard's Pagoda, as well as the pathetic base, the three Wizards of the Silver Alliance could not help but fall silent. They knew very well what this meant. Since Grimm could still stand there and chat with them, it meant that the Magical Beasts had already failed.
The attacking Magical Beasts were either licking their wounds in a dark corner, or planning their next attack. But no matter what, this' little wizard 'from the Salubo Family had already gained the initial control of this Dark Forest.
As long as there were enough supplies, this Wizard's Pagoda would be like a nail hammered into this place, and all of the Magical Beasts would gnash their teeth helplessly.
After all, a Wizard with the Wizard's Pagoda had an overwhelming advantage in all aspects. And these advantages could not be overcome with numbers!
But after looking at the number of Wizards and apprentices within the Wizard's Pagoda, the three Silver Robed Wizards could not help but shake their heads. With such numbers and quality, it would be difficult for them to deal a devastating blow to the invaders.
And once the leader of the Magical Beasts escaped, they could come back at any time.
As for why the three Silver Robed Sorcerers came to this conclusion, it was mainly because Grim had sent Dana, Anguja, Forest Demon, Bird Demon, and Snake Demon out.
Hence, there were only three wizards, Grimm, Gargamel, and Meryl, as well as three Prospective Wizards, Kedar, Arm, and Sabrina, guarding the Wizard's Pagoda. As for the other apprentices, they would not be of much use in the face of the monster horde!
Therefore, the three Silver Robed Wizards speculated that Grimm had used the lava in the well to flood the hall with fire, forcing the monsters to retreat.
In this way, neither side would obtain a true victory. The hatred and war between the two sides would continue indefinitely! Under such circumstances, even if there were any rare resources in the nearby Black Forest, it would be difficult to exploit them effectively due to the effects of the war.
This … caused the three Silver Robed Magi's evaluation of Grimm to drop even further!
"There are only three Wizards, and one of them is obviously a new Wizard. Could it be that the Sarubo family can't send anyone to help them? "One of the Silver Robed Magi communicated with each other using the Soul Telepathy in disbelief.
"Don't forget, this seems to be his personal Wizard's Pagoda. It's possible that he did not receive the support of his family! "
"So his family sent him to his death? This is the Black Forest. Building a pagoda here will result in the attacks of the Magical Beasts. Could it be that this fellow knew nothing about this? "
"Who cares! Our mission is to build a good Wizard's Pagoda according to the needs of our clients. We don't have to worry about anything else … "
The three Silver Robed Magi discussed the maintenance of the Wizard's Pagoda and the aftermath with Grimm.
After the battle, the Wizard's Pagoda had suffered severe damage both inside and outside. It would not be cheap to repair it. Furthermore, the facilities within the Wizard's Pagoda were not complete. They could use this opportunity to fix them.
Of course, the Teleportation Formation was an exception!
Hence, both parties engaged in an intense discussion about the cost. Finally, after consulting with the upper echelons of the trading company, they settled on a final price of 167,000 Magic Crystals. As for the foreign slaves that Grimm had bought previously, they had already arrived at Pine Tower Town. They were being escorted by a team of troops to the Wizard's Pagoda, and would arrive in about four days.
167,000 Magic Crystals … Even some of the veteran Magi might not be able to fork out such a huge sum. When Meryl and Gargamel heard this, their faces turned deathly pale, and their little hearts couldn't take it anymore.
They had all participated in the process of building the Wizard's Pagoda from scratch.
The basic cost of building the Wizard's Pagoda was 200,000 Magic Crystals. Coupled with the 110,000 Magic Crystals used in the attack of the Magical Beasts, and the 167,000 Magic Crystals he had spent this time … This meant that Grimm had spent close to 500,000 Magic Crystals to build his personal Wizard's Pagoda!
This number made Meryl, a new Wizard who had just gotten rid of her status as an apprentice, and Gargamel, a wandering Wizard, feel a suffocating pressure.
It was no wonder that so many Wizards were willing to spend their entire lives slowly developing their own Wizard's Pagoda. In essence, the Wizard's Pagoda was like a monster that swallowed money. If it was allowed to grow, the terrifying consumption of magic crystals would be enough to make a Magus cry out in pain!
Grimm was naturally unable to fork out so many Magic Crystals in such a short amount of time. He only had 30,000 Magic Crystals on hand, and he used 1.1 million Magic Crystals and a large number of Magic Gems to make up for the rest.
Thus, just exchanging the Magic Crystals and appraising the Magic Gems took the Silver Robed Wizards an entire day.
Seeing the mountain of Magic Crystals in the storage of the Wizard's Pagoda, the Silver Robed Wizards could not help but change their opinion of Grimm. To be able to obtain so many Magic Crystals, no matter how they looked at it, should have been a great victory.
Could it be that this Wizard Grimm really defeated and annihilated the main force of the Magical Beast Army with just three Wizards? Even though it was hard to believe, the Magic Crystals in front of them were real. If the Magical Beasts had not suffered a great loss, how would they have allowed them to plunder resources and invade the Black Forest …
It couldn't be that all the Magical Beasts had died, right?
How could the three Silver Robed Wizards know that the guesses they had made in their minds were actually the most accurate answers! However, the answer was too unbelievable, and they did not dare to believe it easily.
With the help of the few Silver Robed Wizards, the facilities within the Wizard's Pagoda were being improved at a speed visible to the naked eye. The cracks and countless damages on the surface of the Wizard's Pagoda were also easily repaired by the Silver Robed Wizards.
There were specializations in every field!
It had to be said that these Arcane Sorcerers who specialized in a certain aspect were simply great existences like gods in their respective fields of expertise. Things that were almost impossible for outsiders were as easy as flipping a hand for them.
Thus, with their hard work, the Wizard's Pagoda was repaired and maintained in just three days. On this day, the six servants that Grimm had bought successfully arrived at the Wizard's Pagoda.
As the original landmark of the Diseased Forest had completely disappeared, Grimm decided to name his Wizard's Pagoda "Blazing Flame Monarch" and the new underground tunnel "Flame Cave". He did not mind building a "Molten Fire City" with humans as the main population once the surface of the earth was developed!
After the construction was completed, the three Silver Robed Wizards left the Blazing Flame Monarch under the protection of a team of human troops. Grimm threw the two Halfling Gourmets into the kitchen, the two Dwarf Craftsmen into the Magic Golem Factory, and the two Elves into the Wizard's Garden.
Halflings were about three feet tall, and usually weighed between thirty to thirty-five pounds. Their skin was ruddy, their hair was black and straight, and they had brown eyes.
The slaves that the Silver Alliance sent to the Wizard's Pagoda were mostly male and female.
In comparison, the male Halflings had longer sideburns, while the female Halflings were slightly more slender. Regardless of the gender, they all had exquisite culinary skills that could make people swallow their tongues. This was something that everyone in the Wizard's Pagoda thought highly of!
As for the pair of Dwarves, Grimm could not tell which one was male and which one was female, no matter how hard he looked at them. They were less than a meter and two inches tall, and they had rough appearances and big beards.
Their bodies were as strong as mountains, their muscles as hard as rocks, and their tempers were just like their appearance, hard and smelly …
This was beyond Grimm's imagination. Who would have thought that even the female Dwarf would have a thick reddish-brown beard, and when she spoke with a coarse voice, it was like thunder exploding in his ears.
Grimm could not help but feel a chill run down his spine when he thought about this pair of Dwarf husband and wife lying on the same bed at night …
The pair of Elves were the complete opposite of the Dwarves.
They were only about half a meter tall.
They had slender bodies, beautiful faces, fair skin, green eyes, and a pair of sharp ears … If they were a little smaller and had wings as thin as a cicada's, they would almost look exactly like the Elemental Elves in Alice's Tower of Destiny.
However, the Elemental Elves had powerful magical energy, while the Elves in front of him had a fragrant scent of plants.
They were small Plant Type Magical Creatures, and were naturally good at taking care of all kinds of magical and exotic plants. Thus, they were essential gardeners in the Wizard's Garden.
Grimm seemed to have read in some books that these Elves were actually Flower Fairies and Elves that the Wizards had captured from the Ancient Elf Empire.
