It was necessary for Grim to understand this!
This kind of friction between Wizard families had to be handled with care and discretion.
Who could he provoke and who could not? This was something he had to know in his heart. Otherwise, if he bumped into a wizard family with a powerful background, he might not even know how he died.
At least this time, the Sarubo family had provoked a wizard family that was not easy to deal with.
If the Sarubo family was not a descendant of the rank 2 wizard Forgan's family, the Sarubo family would most likely have to hand him over. After all, the Sarubo family lacked a rank 4 wizard who could rule the country. If they really fell out, the Sarubo family would definitely be at a disadvantage.
Fortunately, the Anu Family's Quasi Magus who died at Sark's hands wasn't a core member of the Anu Family. However, to any Magus family, a Quasi Sorcerer was a valuable resource that could not be easily discarded.
Therefore, if both sides could not come to an agreement, these conflicts and accidental injuries would continue to happen. Now, it all depended on which side could not bear the losses and would be the first to admit defeat.
This would be a huge blow to the family's reputation!
After understanding this, Grim also understood the extent of what he should do. Here, he was more of a guardian. He would use his title as a fire demon to deter the other party from making any reckless moves. Otherwise, if the other party came and slaughtered one of the Sarubo family's resource points, the Sarubo family would be forced to declare war no matter how unwilling they were.
Therefore, Grimm's responsibility here was to repel the other party's possible attacks and leave enough time for the higher-ups to mediate. However, if he made a decision and attacked the enemy too harshly, he would not be rewarded by the family. Instead, he would be punished.
After understanding this, Grimm gave up on the idea of attacking forcefully. Instead, he thought about how to deal with the enemy's strange tricks.
In order to familiarize himself with the enemy, Grimm patiently read through the information of the Anu family's wizards, trying to find information about the enemy from last night.
At this moment of crisis, he did not have the mood to do anything with those lowly maids.
Between his life and pleasure, Grimm chose the former without hesitation.
Apart from the founder of the Anu Family, there were also two Tier 2 Sorcerers and 19 official Sorcerers. With such a number of Magi, they already had an overwhelming advantage against the Sarubo Family. As long as they took a firm stance, the Sarubo Family's attitude would soften sooner or later.
After all, the Anu Family's Tier 4 Sorcerer was a lethal weapon in a family war. Once Leylin made up his mind and stopped considering what would happen after he stepped out of the Magus World, he alone could easily wipe out the Salubo Family's foundation in the Magus World.
That way, no matter how furious and unwilling the rank 6 Great Magus Salubo was, he could only hope that the other party would advance a step further and step into rank 5. Only then would he teach him a lesson. Before this, no matter how powerful Great Wizard Salubo was, he could not do anything to a coward who was determined to hide in the Sorcerer World.
Of course, the secondary planes that the other party secretly conquered outside the realm could become the main target of the Great Sorcerer's vengeance. Apart from that, as a rank 6 Great Wizard, it was impossible for Sarubo to not have any friends outside the realm. He could easily use the Tier 4 Sorcerers of his allies to mediate this matter.
Hence, unless it was absolutely necessary, even the Anu Family's Tier 4 Sorcerer would not be willing to offend the Great Wizard behind the scenes.
Just as Grimm was silently thinking about the story behind this incident and the possible future developments, the defense system of the stone tower was inexplicably triggered.
In the next second, a thick pillar of fire shot into the sky from the small platform at the top of the stone tower.
However, the pillar of fire disappeared as abruptly as it had appeared. Grimm held his staff in one hand and the Secret Voodoo Scroll in the other. His eyes burned with bright flames as he silently appeared there.
In the pitch-black night sky, a woodpecker was flapping its wings and circling in the air. It had used a pebble to trigger the alarm spell formation of the Limestone Tower, alerting Grimm who had been on high alert.
"Hey, kid from the Sarubo Family, can you tell me how you saw through my psychic spell yesterday?" The seemingly ordinary woodpecker actually spoke human language and shouted at Grimm, "If you tell me how you did it, I'll tell you a secret too. It's related to your safety! "
Grimm looked up at the woodpecker and was surprised to find that it was not a magical creature, but just an ordinary woodpecker. Of course, Grimm once again sensed the existence of the psychic beacon on the woodpecker's body.
This was not the psychic sorcerer's body, nor was it his contracted creature. It was just an ordinary creature that had been bewitched by the psychic.
Grimm looked around, hoping to find the psychic sorcerer's hiding place. Unfortunately, everything was shrouded in darkness. Other than a few lights shining from within the stone tower, almost the entire field of vision was a vast expanse of darkness.
The Limestone Tower was 37 meters tall, and there was no other building in Gilnis City that could compare to it. Looking out from above, under the dark night sky, except for the central area of Gilnis City and a nearby area that was brightly lit, the other areas of Gilnis City were sparsely lit.
It was simply wishful thinking for Grimm to think that he could find the psychic sorcerer hiding in such an environment. Therefore, after looking around, he resolutely gave up on this unrealistic idea and once again focused his attention on the woodpecker.
"Sir, your methods really do amaze me." Grimm could not help but shake his head, "Yesterday it was a fox, today it's a woodpecker. Your true body is always hiding behind the scenes, not even giving me a chance to retaliate."
"Hey, I'm not looking for you today to fight. I've already tried to kill you yesterday, and since I failed last time, I have no reason to do so this time. By the way, what do you think of my suggestion? "
"That's my life-saving method. Do you think I'll tell you?" Grimm slammed the staff in his hand, and a stream of flames shot out, instantly burning the woodpecker in the air into ashes.
Grimm killed the annoying fellow in one strike, and after looking around again, he turned around to return to the stone tower.
However, just as he turned around, a night owl cursed and pounced out from the darkness.
"Good lad, you're really ruthless. I haven't even finished speaking and you've already killed my emissary …"
A witchcraft fireball soared into the sky, and the violent flame shockwave instantly burned the Night Owl into charcoal.
This time, a green-crowned parrot flapped its wings and flew over with all its might.
Looking at the broken silver chain on its right leg, it seemed to be a pet of some noble in the city.
"Hey, you who plays with fire, if you kill my emissary again, I'll …"
Another flame arrow streaked across the sky, turning the green-crowned parrot into a ball of flesh and blood.
'A.I. Chip, how is it? Can you find where that guy is hiding? 'Grimm asked in his mind.
[Beep. Unable to detect! The effects of the opponent's spells are strange. I don't have the relevant knowledge of spells, so I can't identify or track him …]
Grimm felt helpless about this.
Witchcraft that was related to the mind and spirit was not a common basic knowledge. Only those with special talents could display their great power. Those people were always mysterious and strange, and were good at disguising themselves. It was extremely difficult to obtain knowledge of spells related to them.
This guy in front of him was the same.
He did not reveal his true body, and had always relied on bewitching animals and plants to achieve his goals. Grim didn't believe a single word from such a secretive person.
After killing the green-crowned parrot with a flame arrow, Grimm's flaming eyes scanned the night sky repeatedly, but he did not see any new flying creatures approaching. Just as he was feeling puzzled, he suddenly sensed something in the garden in front of the stone tower.
There was a flowerbed in the middle of the garden. The withered vines and enchanted plants had all been eradicated, and the soil had been flipped over. The new enchanted plant seeds had not been planted, so there was nothing there. However, Grimm sensed a rat with flashing red eyes crawling out of the ground. It was trying its best to stand up, squeaking at Grimm who was at the top of the tower.
All the flying creatures had been used up? Now he was controlling small animals …
Grimm sighed helplessly.
Although he wanted to fight the enemy, but … this cunning guy did not even show his face. There was nothing he could do! He could not keep his guard up against this hateful guy day and night, could he?
One had to know that apart from him, there were also Sabrina and Blitz in the stone tower at the moment. If they angered him, he would change his target to them. With their strength, they would not be able to fight back. Grimm could not keep them safe at all times.
He 'flew' down from the top of the tower with a Flame Leap and stepped forward. Facing this strange opponent, he frowned and asked, "What are you trying to do?"
"It's the same old question. How did you find out about my mental witchcraft? I used an auxiliary array glyphs and planted a spiritual waymark on you. Coupled with the spiritual suggestion, you shouldn't have noticed … "The red-eyed rat angrily waved its little claws and was still struggling with this problem.
"What information do you want in exchange?" Grimm felt a trace of sincerity in the other party's words and asked.
"I'll trade it for your safety!" The little rat squeaked, "You don't think the family only sent me here to cause trouble, do you? I did not kill you this time, so naturally, there will be other wizards to kill you. If you tell me your method, I will tell you about that wizard … "
"Uh …"
The other party's words immediately made Grimm speechless.
