Only after the sky darkened did Grimm safely return to his Wizard Tower residence.
As soon as he entered his room, he locked the door and took out all the good stuff from his waist pouch. He lined them up on the wooden table and rubbed his hands, licking his lips as he excitedly looked from left to right, then from right to left. The excitement in his body and mind could no longer be described with words.
The 10 bottles on the left contained the Concentration Potions that he had been dreaming of. They were top-grade goods that were specially provided to the elite apprentices in the camp, and their effects were 20% better than those in the outside world. These Concentration Potions were sold for 200 magic crystals each, but they had already cost Grimm 2000 magic crystals. If it wasn't for this unexpected windfall, Grimm probably wouldn't have been able to afford them even if he skinned himself alive.
This amount of Concentration Potions was enough for Grimm to break through the threshold of a beginner apprentice and successfully raise his mental strength to the peak of an intermediate apprentice. As for whether he could successfully break through the threshold, it would depend on his potential.
Grimm's gaze lingered on the Concentration Potions for a long time before he reluctantly moved on to the next item.
It was a blue magic gem. The moment Grimm took it out, he could see tiny electric arcs lingering on its surface. It was like a magic gem with its own life force. It could continuously absorb the energy of lightning in the air and create a strange world that was most suitable for the survival of lightning elements.
Judging from its quality, this was definitely a magic core taken from the body of a quasi wizard Storm Giant.
In terms of species characteristics, the Storm Giant should be classified as an elemental creature, but the Storm Giant bloodline currently existing in the Sorcerer World was very strange. It was said that in ancient times, a great wizard had conducted some extremely dangerous bloodline experiments. He tried to use witchcraft to give his bloodline to a group of wind elementals in order to expand his bloodline.
On the Sorcerer Continent, those who could be called Great Sorcerers were those powerful Sorcerers who were above rank 3.
It had to be said that his experiment was very successful. He had successfully added a new species to the Wizard World, the Storm Giant. It was a powerful witchcraft creature that had both the bloodline power of a wizard and the body of an elemental incarnation.
It was a pity that these Storm Giants had problems with their own identity. Obviously, they were more willing to get close to the simple-minded and easier to control wind elementals. Therefore, after a large number of Storm Giants escaped the control of the Magi, they combined with the natural wind elements and built a small Storm Giant Kingdom in the Emerald Hills in the middle of the continent.
Due to their special identity and the dual characteristics of both sorcerers and wind elementals, they were able to summon countless wind elemental creatures from the elemental world after building a huge storm altar. This allowed them to become a moderately powerful force in the center of the Sorcerer Continent.
The Lightning Gem in Grimm's hand was most likely from the Storm Kingdom.
According to the witchcraft contract between the Storm Kingdom and the scattered towers, all forces in the central part of the continent were not allowed to hunt the Storm Giants for their elemental crystal cores. However, these sorcery contracts obviously could not stop the existence of the black market and hunters. Hence, such rare resources were still quietly circulating in the dark.
The Quasi Wizard level Earth Elemental Crystal Core that Grimm had obtained last time might have only cost 500 magic crystals, but this Lightning Gem had cost Grimm 1200 magic crystals. For no other reason than its rarity.
In terms of battle strength, perhaps the Earth Elemental Crystal Core could give Grimm a greater boost in battle strength. However, considering the variety of battle tactics, Grimm felt that it would be better to have a Lightning Gem. If the Earth Elemental Crystal could give Grimm the ability to move through the earth, what about the Lightning Gem? Perhaps it could give Grimm the ability to fly in the blue sky in advance.
To be honest, ever since he had flown in the sky on the Socratic Eagle, Grimm had been infatuated with the feeling of flying freely.
However, Grimm still needed the A.I. Chip to calculate and adjust how to use this Lightning Gem well, using the power of the spell formation to fully tap into the gem's potential. Hence, he could only put it aside for now and wait for the A.I. Chip to complete its calculations before deciding how to create a new generation of Lightning Golems.
As for the third item on the table, Grimm had exchanged the Magic Vine Lady's notes. It was a powerful fire elemental treasure that came from underground volcanoes — the Fire Diamond. Unfortunately, the Fire Diamond was only a magic treasure and not the core of a fire elemental creature. Hence, it was difficult to use it to create a fire elemental magic wand.
However, although it could not be used to create a magic wand, the Fire Diamond was still a magic treasure that Grimm had been looking for. With it, Grimm was one step closer to the magic wand he had envisioned.
Using the Fire Diamond as an inlay for the magic wand would undoubtedly increase the speed at which fire particles gathered. It would also increase the power of Grimm's fire elemental spells. Hence, it was not much less useful than a magic wand.
Now that he had the gem at the top of the wand and the Mithril for the rune formation to create the body of the wand, the only thing he lacked now was a magic wand suitable for Grimm. If he wanted to create a fire magic wand, Fire Dragon Wood was the worst choice, followed by Fire Coral. Finally, the spine of a fire elemental magic beast was the most suitable choice.
However, these rare resources could only be found by chance. Where could Grimm find the spine of a fire elemental magic beast that was suitable for him? That was why Grim had been hesitating all this time. He did not know if he should continue to wait for suitable materials to appear, or if he should gather some Fire Coral as soon as possible!
There would never be an answer to this question.
Therefore, Grimm could only smile bitterly and put them all into his storage belt.
Although he really wanted to try out the effects of the Concentration Potion, he still had an important mission to complete tonight. And this mission was directly related to the battle he was going to fight tomorrow.
Therefore, after admiring his spoils of war for the day, Grimm hurried to the 3rd floor of the Wizard Tower and went straight to the alchemy laboratory. He only returned to his residence when it was almost dawn.
Unfortunately, before he had even slept for 2 hours, someone knocked on the wooden door of his residence.
It was Kevin the Blackhand.
Looking at the way he followed Grimm closely, it was as if he was afraid that Grimm would suddenly run away.
However, when he saw Grimm's listless face, he could not help but ask, "What did you do last night? Did you forget that there was a very important battle today? "
"Uh … I suddenly received such a large sum of money yesterday. I was so excited that I couldn't sleep," Grimm said with a pair of dark circles under his eyes.
Kevin had an expression that said, "Only a fool would believe you." But in the end, he still asked out of curiosity.
"Are you sure you can win today's battle? You should know that in order to prevent a kid like you from suddenly appearing, those old people have been busy all night. I'm afraid they've already thought of various ways to deal with your Earth element puppet. You … Are you sure you can fight Mark? "
"Do you want me to win or lose?"
"This … Kid, to be honest, I still think highly of you. Your ability is unique among all the acolytes I've seen. If you use it well, you'll be very popular in a place like the Dark Crypt. This is also the main reason why I was so eager to recruit you into the elite group! But … but your first appearance was too eye-catching after all. Boss Baldy just wanted you to show off your skills and get familiar with the elite group. But you … you directly beat up an old man like Hei Mu. "
"Is it a big deal?"
"It's more than a big deal! I've never seen the members of the elite group so united against a common enemy. For you, they actually made plans, contributed magic tools, and used everything they could to deal with Earthwalking. So you should be careful today. I've already reminded that kid Mark, as long as you admit defeat, he'll stop immediately. I won't leave you with any lasting memories! "
"Lord Kevin, do you trust me?"
"Hm?"
"No matter how they prepare, I'm still confident in today's battle. So … If you trust me, why don't you bet on me?"
Kevin instantly fell silent. Looking at Grimm's serious expression, he was a little confused.
Today, he was going to fight against a rare opponent in the camp — Thunder Axe Mark. He didn't have an obvious weakness like Blackwood the day before. Blackwood was after all a dark spellcaster who dealt with corpses and flesh all day long. Once his curse attacks and Corpse Puppets' attacks were ineffective, he would be helpless. After all, his original body was a fragile human skeleton that would fall at the slightest touch.
But Thunder Axe Mark was completely different. His tyrannical strength was enough to fight against Grimm's Demon Crocodile Puppet. His outstanding physique also gave him a hopeless resistance to magic and physical attacks. As long as he had a way to force Grimm out of the ground, or a way to directly attack the ground, Grimm's Earth Puppet would not be able to last more than three to five minutes against him.
Under such circumstances, where did Grimm get his confidence from?
This huge puzzle had been bothering Kevin. Even when the two of them got off the giant eagle and walked into the camp, he was still thinking hard.
Looking at the crowd of people who had been waiting bitterly in the distance, Grimm smiled and whispered into Kevin's ear.
"Is there a need to be so troubled, Lord? You've already offended everyone when you brought me into the camp yesterday. Why don't they place their bets on me today? Once I win, what can they do to you, the creditor? Why are you still hesitating? "
Kevin's expression became even more bitter.
