Report

Above the Yate Plateau, a black figure was flying close to the ground.

Under the illumination of the huge moon in the sky, the black shadow was tall and slender. Looking from afar, it was full of a seductive feeling. But what was frightening was that such a beautiful and seductive figure belonged to a non-human. A pair of wide, flat, gray bat wings spread out behind her. When she glided close to the ground, she was silent and fast like a ghost.

She clearly couldn't see any pursuers or abnormalities behind her, but this black figure was like a panicked bird, hurriedly flitting across grasslands, villages, and rivers … She didn't dare to stop at any place for even a moment.

Even with her strength, she would be exhausted after flying non-stop for a few hours.

Every time this happened, she would dive down and rush into a certain place in the forest. Then, there would be some wild movements of some large creatures.

However, these voices came out quickly and disappeared just as quickly!

After a while, when the black shadow flapped her wings and soared into the sky, there were already one or two withered bodies of large forest beasts somewhere in the forest. In just a few minutes, the blood in the bodies of these large beasts had been sucked clean.

Under the illumination of the moonlight, the moment the black figure leaped into the air, a charming but worried face was revealed.

Mary … She was the vampire wizard Grimm had sent to spy on Lester!

Maybe the strange atmosphere tonight had scared away the nearby forest beasts, or maybe Mary had sucked so much blood that there was not a trace of blood leaking out … When the sound of flapping wings disappeared in the distant darkness, the forest became quiet again.

Until … a strange black shadow descended upon this place!

There were no signs of living beings in the forest. Only the people with the sharpest senses could vaguely feel that the light and shadow seemed to have dimmed a little.

Under the bright moonlight, a thin black fog spread in the forest, covering the two withered bodies of the beasts hidden in the bushes.

As if it had found something, two scarlet eyes suddenly lit up in the black fog, staring in the direction that Mary escaped to without blinking.

Soon after, a cold and ruthless male voice rang out from the mist.

"She actually has the aura of my bloodline … Strange, could it be that some experimental subject wasn't cleaned up? No, I have to try activating Bloodline Summoning … "

As the red light flashed in the black mist, a faintly discernible strange fluctuation followed the strange bloodline connection and rippled toward a certain place in the distance.

However, at this moment, Mary had already flown fifty miles away.

But just as she was flapping her large bat wings and flying close to the treetops, an indescribable spiritual call entered her mind.

Like a speeding train suddenly stepping on the brakes, Mary's originally light and elegant flying posture suddenly came to an abrupt stop. Her whole body curled up into a ball, breaking countless branches and vines along the way, and fell into the jungle in a sorry state.

This sudden fall almost made her dizzy and confused, unable to distinguish between north, south, east and west.

But before she could regain consciousness, her body's strong instincts actually made her jump up, turn around, and run in the direction she came from.

Before she could run five meters, Mary's consciousness suddenly sobered up, and she immediately regained control of her body. Thus, she suddenly stopped in her tracks.

Although her footsteps had stopped, the two consciousnesses were still fiercely trying to regain control of her body.

Of course, Mary's consciousness was trying to escape that terrifying demon as fast as possible, but her instincts kept urging her to return to the source of her bloodline. The two consciousnesses were fiercely fighting on all levels of her body, neither willing to let go of even the slightest bit of control over her body.

Thus, the originally charming and gorgeous Mary seemed to have ADHD and could not even stand steadily. One foot forward, one foot back, one hand turning left, the other turning right. Even the muscles on her face began to violently spasm.

Her whole body was a mess because of the two consciousnesses tangling with each other!

Although the vampire blood flowing in her body had the bloodline imprint of that vampire Lester, she could not resist his orders. But she was not a blood descendant created by him using The Embrace, so her soul was not under his control.

When the soul and bloodline instincts clashed, both sides could not come to an end, and neither could completely suppress the other and completely control this body.

After a long time of bloodline summoning, that blood descendant did not come. Lester, who was hidden in the black mist, finally showed a surprised expression.

What a strange bloodline descendant! She could actually resist the summoning of the source of her bloodline. This … This is unbelievable!

Lester's interest in such a strange bloodline descendant was undoubtedly growing.

He stopped the bloodline summoning ritual, and the black mist condensed into a pair of giant bat wings that could almost cover the entire forest. As the bat wings flapped slightly, he disappeared on the spot and flew towards the direction of the strange bloodline fluctuation.

The enemy was approaching …

The strange consciousness in her body had just calmed down, and Mary, who was almost exhausted, did not even have the time to catch her breath before she felt the source of her bloodline approaching from afar.

Mary, who had not felt afraid after fighting with the body's instincts for a long time, was immediately frightened to the point that her face turned pale. Without hesitation, she flew up to the sky, flapped her huge bat wings, and fled as fast as she could.

In order to get rid of this terrifying enemy, she even used two spells, 'Energy Burst' and 'Extreme Flight'.

Lester could make her obediently walk back and surrender with just a thought from dozens of miles away. If she really met him face to face, she might not even have the thought of resisting him.

So she decided to go all out. She used Wizard items, scrolls, magic wands, and potions. Mary used everything that could increase her flying speed, just to get as far away from the demon as possible.

With her strong mental consciousness, as long as she was more than a hundred miles away from him, Lester would probably not be able to sense her specific location!

With this simple and stubborn thought, Mary flew at top speed, playing a game of cat and mouse with the terrifying level 2 vampire Lester on the Yate Highlands …



Scattered Tower Forest area, Ferde South City.

In a secret room on the top floor of the Wizard's Pagoda, Sanazar, Forgan, and Cogan gathered for a secret meeting.

As the core wizards of the Salubo family, they had a routine meeting like this almost every other year. Due to the multitude of family affairs this year, the number of regular meetings had also increased.

During the regular meeting, Wizard Corgan was the one who quickly reported what had happened in the family over the past year. He reported the distribution of the family's resources, the changes in the internal personnel, the statistics of the advancement of the apprentices … After he was done, Corgan took out a small piece of paper from his sleeve and explained what had happened in the Flame Monarch's Wizard Pagoda.

Grim lived in seclusion within the Wizard's Pagoda, not taking a single step out. They hadn't seen him for half a year …

The Wizard's Pagoda had recruited another two resident Wizards …

A month ago, a few core Wizards in the Wizard's Pagoda had disappeared for a period of time …

Goblin Kabi had also disappeared, but Chief Butler Gargamel was still around …

Half a month later, Meryl and Mary returned, but the Insect Wizard Bliss, the Poison Centipede Endor, and the Mechanic Wizard Sabrina were still nowhere to be found.

Seven days ago, Mary left for the scattered Southwest of Tallinn. Her destination was unknown …

Recently, there had been a large number of records of the resources of the Wizard's Pagoda going in and out. It seemed like Grim's camp was up to something …





Almost all of them were the recent developments of the Flame Monarch, as well as the details of important events. Looking at this, the movements of the Flame Monarch were clear to see!

Wizard Forgan patiently waited for Wizard Corgan to finish reading all the information. He could not help but bow and ask, "Lord Sanazar, do you think …"

"Is there any doubt?" Level 3 Wizard Sanazar's shrill voice came from within the purple fog, "That lad is really capable. He only advanced a few days ago, and he already dares to launch a plane invasion. Hehehe … He's really daring! "

Even though he had already guessed it, Forgan was not as certain as Sanazar. He asked doubtfully, "My Lord, can he do it with his abilities? That … That's an invasion of a plane! "

"Hmph, Forgan, you're too conservative!" Sanazar could not help but mock him, "If I were you, I wouldn't doubt if he dared to do it. I would only wonder where he got the coordinates from. With Grimm's wealth, he should not be able to buy a world waymark for a small plane from the Silver Alliance … "

Wizard Corgan could not help but ask, "Could it be that the girl in the north provided it?"

Hearing this, Sanazar thought for a moment and agreed with this idea.

How could a mere rank 2 Fire Wizard like Grimm have the wealth to buy a world waymark from the three major organisations? This idea was too ridiculous! The biggest possibility was that he had received help from the outside world.

With Grimm's social circle, the only one who could provide him with such help was Alice, who was in the Dragonbone Waste in the north.

So, did the few Magi who disappeared from the Flame Monarch die in another plane, or were they stationed there?

According to Sanazar and Forgan's opinions, the truth was most likely the former.

After all, with Grimm's strength, he could only mobilize six to seven Magi at his peak, and most of them were new Magi. With this kind of strength, unless it was a miniature plane that was lacking in resources, they would not be able to take it.

Even if they did, five to six Magi in a small plane would be like sprinkling a pinch of pepper into a small stream. They would not even be able to taste it before disappearing without a trace. Wanting to rule a plane was just wishful thinking!

There were too few Magi, and it was difficult to form an effective governing structure. They would not be able to successfully develop the resources and wealth of other planes. On top of that, the mana in low-grade planes was thin, and was not suitable for Magi to train. For the Magi stationed there, this was undoubtedly a great torment!

Presumably, Grimm would not be willing to be stationed in a low-grade plane that lacked resources and mana all year round. He would have to take care of all the miscellaneous affairs of the secular world, while his own strength would not improve at all.

It seemed like Grimm had already suffered a great loss!
