The Blazing Flame Monarch.
The return of Grimm and Mary did not attract anyone's attention.
Most of the Wizards of the Wizard's Pagoda did not even know when the two of them had left. Some of the less informed ones still stubbornly believed that Grimm had locked himself in the upper levels of the Wizard's Pagoda to slowly stabilize his spiritual force after reaching level 2.
What they did not know was that the Wizards of Grimm's faction had already completed a dimensional expedition. The leader of the faction, Grimm, had even fought a Vampire Wizard of the same level.
Of course, the aftermath of the battle had not disappeared.
To put it bluntly, the aftermath of the battle between two Grade 2 Wizards destroying the Rose Manor had only just begun, and the severe consequences would only get worse in the next few months.
The Rose Manor was the private property of the Vic Family, and it had already been razed to the ground. The number of nobles and servants who had died numbered four to five hundred. Although Wizards usually did not care about the lives of these worldly agents, it was a different story when it concerned the reputation and glory of the family.
Regardless of whether the Vic Family took revenge in private or caused a ruckus in the scattered Wizard Association of the Tower Forest, Grimm would not be at peace. He would likely be condemned and suppressed by various factions. If he did not handle this properly, Grimm's faction that had just formed might come to a premature end. Even he himself might not be able to establish a foothold in the scattered Tower Forest region.
Of course, how this matter would develop would depend on the attitude of the Sarubo Family.
If the Sarubo Family was willing to step forward and take responsibility for this matter, the Vic Family would not be too ruthless out of respect for the Grade 6 Great Wizard. When the time came, Grimm would be able to get through this crisis safely, be it compensation of magical crystals or resources.
However, considering Grimm's current relationship with the Sarubo Family, it was almost impossible for the Sarubo Family to step forward. Grimm even had to be careful that the Sarubo Family would use this matter to kick him while he was down.
Hence, after bringing Mary back to the Blazing Flame Monarch, the first thing Grimm considered was how to strengthen his faction.
… …
Third level of the Blazing Flame Monarch.
After many years of operation, the magic facilities here were completely complete.
A sealing room, a library, a golem factory, an alchemy laboratory, a scroll production room … As long as it was a magic facility that Wizards could use, it had everything here.
Originally, these magic facilities were open to the public, and some of them had even been handed over to the Magi stationed in the tower and the resident Magi to manage and use them. However, in the past half a month, the Blazing Flame Monarch's butler, Garg, had suddenly taken back his authority to manage the sealing room and began to reject all non-core Magi's requests.
Fortunately, the use of the sealing room was very limited. Wizards might not even use it once in eight to ten years. Therefore, this small inconvenience did not bring too much trouble to the resident wizard.
However, there were still some Magi who could guess that the Blazing Flame Monarch's management was in a hurry to retract the authority to manage the sealed room. It was very likely that they wanted to seal and imprison some sensitive or powerful otherworld beings, or else they wouldn't have been in such a rush.
The upper echelons of the Blazing Flame Monarch were indifferent to these rumors and did not pay any attention to them.
Strictly speaking, there were only six core Magi who knew what kind of otherworld creature was imprisoned in the third level of the Blazing Flame Monarch's sealed room. Two of them were in the plane of the goblins, while the other two were in the far north. Within the Blazing Flame Monarch, only Grimm and Gargamel knew the inside story.
Even the Forest Demon Ava, without Grim's approval, Gargamel didn't dare to tell her about it.
After returning from the Rose Manor, Grimm brought Mary back to the Blazing Flame Monarch's first stop, which was the sealing room in the third level of the Wizard's Pagoda.
After going through a series of tightly guarded secret doors and layers of witchcraft verification, Grimm finally used his authority as the Tower Master to open the door of the sealed room. He then brought Mary into this mysterious place.
The sealing room sounded like a mysterious place, but in essence, it was just an ordinary room covered in graphite lines and inscribed with countless protective runes. It was protected by many mysterious barriers.
There were many different layers of seals in the sealing room, and their prices varied according to the level of the seals.
Through the ingenious design of magical geometry, the sealing room could effectively block the probing of any prophecy type Wizard Spells. Anyone who wanted to use Wizard Spells or magical items to probe the room would have to obtain permission from the owner of the Wizard's Pagoda. Otherwise, they would have to deal with the countless anti-detection spell formations.
Furthermore, there was a perfect Sealing Binding Spell Formation within the sealing room that could borrow the power of the Wizard's Pagoda to seal terrifying magical beasts or powerful otherworld creatures that could not be dealt with at the moment.
Thus, the sealing room became Grimm's temporary prison for the level 3 Lightning Dragon Armes and level 2 Draconian Zacha.
When Grimm and Mary stepped into the mysterious sealing room, they saw two pillars of light of different colors, one large and one small. The larger pillar of light sealed a terrifying lightning dragon that was seventeen meters long, its body covered in dense azure scales. Rune chains that seemed to have substance appeared out of thin air, wrapping around the lightning dragon's massive body.
Under the combined suppression of the runic chains and Plane of Existence, the Thunder Dragon, which had the strength of a Tier 3 monster, could not budge an inch. It could only close its eyes and use its powerful willpower to resist the Plane of Existence's Laws.
Beneath its body, a glowing Wizard Dagger was stuck between its chest and abdomen. Viscous dragon blood infused with the Law of Lightning flowed down the dagger, slowly dripping into a clay jar beneath the lightning dragon's body.
Outside the pillar of light, similar clay jars were piled up, reaching a height of over two meters. There were seven or eight jars filled with dragon blood that had their openings sealed.
At the other end of the sealing room, within a smaller pillar of light, the level 2 Draconian Zacha, who was bound by rune chains and unable to move, silently looked at Grimm with a complicated expression.
Grimm would never give anyone the authority to enter and exit such an important place. Even the Flame Monarch's butler, Gargamel, would not be able to enter and leave as he pleased. Hence, in order to 'take care' of the lightning dragon, Grimm had transferred the engineering support magic puppet from his laboratory here to be in charge of producing dragon blood.
Without Grimm's guidance, Mary's scarlet eyes stared unblinkingly at the lightning dragon Armes. No … To be more precise, she was staring at the dragon blood flowing happily beneath the lightning dragon's body.
"Go, drink to your heart's content! I'm sure this feast of dragon blood will make up for the deficit you've had for the past few days … "
With Grimm's permission, Mary instantly transformed into a hungry ghost that had been thirsty for a thousand years. She flashed into the pillar of light and lay on the lightning dragon's wound, gulping down the viscous dragon blood in large mouthfuls.
Her unbridled actions had infuriated the Thunder Dragon, Armes. However, as soon as the lightning energy within its body began to gather, the runic chains within the pillar of light blossomed with countless mysterious runes. The power of thunder and lightning condensed within Lei Long's body was like a broken wine bottle, instantly leaking out cleanly.
All the lightning energy was channeled into the mysterious space along the rune chains.
With the lightning energy in its body gone, the lightning dragon that was about to raise its head and roar suddenly felt its limbs go limp. It could only lie on the ground in grief and indignation, unable to struggle at all.
However, even if it could not retaliate openly, it still had some tricks up its sleeves.
The viscous purple dragon blood had just been sucked into Mary's body. Before she could digest and absorb the surging life force within, the dragon blood exploded in her stomach.
Although the lightning energy in the Dragon's blood had left its body, it still maintained a faint connection with the Rank 3 Thunder Dragon. Under Lei Long's command, the power of thunder and lightning within the Dragon Blood suddenly exploded, instantly blasting Mary's internal organs to pieces, turning her into a bloody mess.
Many of her internal organs had turned into a bloody mess that was hard to identify.
This kind of terrifying injury would be fatal to anyone who suffered it. However, to a vampire, it was only a moderate injury.
As the powerful life energy within the dragon blood was absorbed into his body, his five viscera and six bowels, which had been smashed like a pile of mud, began to regrow under the drive of the strange laws. As the powerful life force continued to pour into her body, the newly regrown organs became even stronger and more resilient than before.
However, not long after, following a series of lightning explosions, the newly regrown organs were once again destroyed by the lightning energy. However, this time, only a portion of them were destroyed. Some of the flesh and blood still remained.
As such, as the dragon blood continued to pour into her body, Mary's body would occasionally be struck by lightning and thunder, each time causing her considerable damage. However, Mary, who had already made up her mind to eat her fill, was unmoved. She gritted her teeth and lay on the wound, devouring the dragon blood in large mouthfuls.
As for the internal organs in her body, they were destroyed as soon as they were regenerated, only to be destroyed again …
It was as if she had fallen into an endless cycle. The lightning energy in the dragon blood, which Mary could not endure, was released. She used this process of destruction and reconstruction to slowly convert the dragon blood's life force into her own bloodline energy.
She had suffered unprecedented cruel torture in the Rose Manor. Although she had absorbed more than half of the Origin Blood, she had still lost a lot of power. Now, with the powerful Tier 3 Thunder Dragon blood, Mary was like a mouse that had fallen into a rice jar. The only thing she could do was eat, eat, eat …
She ate until her stomach was full, until the power of the bloodline in her body was full, until the blood energy almost made her body explode … Only then did Mary let go of her mouth with difficulty and stopped swallowing like her life depended on it.
