His conversation with the Infernal Devil Kzoed was' pleasant 'and' relaxed '!
When Grimm's flaming figure disappeared from the market, a sinister sneer appeared on Blazing Demon Kzoed's dark red face.
"My lord, do you think we should send someone to follow him?"
Without a sound, a hazy human figure appeared beside the Infernal Devil. It looked like a short child about a metre tall, but its illusory body gave off a sinister and terrifying feeling.
Fire Assassin!
This was a strange creature that was half demon and half elemental. In the Fire Elemental Plane, it was a foreign hybrid that was not recognised by the natives. As they were proficient in stealth and assassination, they were rather nimble. Hence, they were often recruited by powerful existences to act as assassins.
"There's no need for that! He's now a hot target in the Fire Elemental Plane. There's no need for us to participate in the personal hunting activities of those stupid lords. It's just a bounty from a rank 2 lesser lord. It's not worth it to offend a rank 2 Magus! "
"So we're not going to do anything?"
"That won't do! We still have to take the bounty from the lesser lord. Anyway, as long as we provide the whereabouts of that Magus, we'll get a third of the reward. It'd be a waste if we didn't take it. Go, quickly tell the subordinates of the lesser lord that a human Magus has appeared in the Gaba Bazaar. Tell them that we can provide a magic portrait of that human Magus and see what price they're willing to pay! Hehe, this kind of risk-free income is what we should be doing. We're merchants now … "
Shortly after, the sinister laughter of the Infernal Devil Kzoed sounded in the bazaar.
The Hokage assassin, who has always acted sinisterly, shuddered and quickly hid his figure and left in a hurry.
After leaving the bazaar, Grimm dived into the sea of flames.
Grimm used the A.I. Chip to record all the information on the map of the Fire Elemental Plane that the Infernal Devil had given him, and then discarded it. According to the A.I. Chip's analysis, the sheepskin scroll had at least three obscure methods of locating items. If Grimm carried it with him, his movements would be completely in the hands of his enemies.
This map was rather crude!
On it, there were only some general descriptions of the names of the places and the geographical locations of the mountains and rivers.
Of course, this was also related to the laziness of elemental creatures.
Ever since they were born, they roamed the entire Fire Elemental Plane aimlessly, never caring about their location or what was around them. That was why they were too lazy to name these places, and it was even more impossible for them to draw detailed maps.
Therefore, according to this map, Grim only knew that the market was called the Gaba Market, and that it was a small local public market. The rest of the information was quite vague.
Inside the Fire Elemental Plane, one could see a sea of fire that stretched for hundreds to tens of thousands of miles. Apart from the raging flames, there was nothing else in the sea of fire. Even most fire creatures could not survive in it for a long time.
Only in the gaps between the Sea of Fire and the Sea of Fire could it be possible to condense some strange landforms and landforms. The land, hills, plains, and volcanoes that had a fixed shape were the most common places for fire creatures to gather.
Many powerful fire creatures occupied places with dense fire elements, treating those places as their homes or lairs. As such, they formed their own territories that were completely irregular.
After comparing the coordinates of the Fire Elemental Plane to the rough map, Grim finally confirmed that the Flame Lord he needed to assassinate lived in a special fire terrain called Fiery Dust Canyon. That place was 50,000 miles away from his current position. At his normal speed, it would take him at least a month to reach there.
Through various channels, Grimm could clearly sense that he was now trapped in a huge storm. It was as if there was an inescapable net waiting for him to crawl into it.
Faced with this situation, Grim could only slow down his advance. He turned towards another direction and found a relatively cold place to digest the Flame Spirits.
With the vastness of the Fire Elemental Plane, a Tier 2 Flame Lord like Arthez did not have the ability to monitor an area of tens of thousands of square kilometers. Strictly speaking, Arthez's sphere of influence was almost empty outside of Fiery Dust Canyon.
If he wanted his undisciplined fire elemental subordinates to build an intelligence network to monitor the surrounding area, they would not be able to do such a detailed job!
As such, once Grim left the Gaba Bazaar and washed away his traces with the sea of fire, he hid in a secluded place. Arthez would not be able to find any traces of Grim even if he sent all his subordinates to dig three feet deep into the ground.
Due to the absence of the main character, the once bustling activity of offering a bounty slowly cooled down!
…
Wizard World, Crimson Throne.
At this moment, the Lava Hall hidden deep underground was filled with the private army of nobles.
These people had brought a large number of craftsmen and slave soldiers from afar, using the inexhaustible wood to create batches of siege weapons. Now, they were using these siege weapons to advance toward the tall Wizard's Pagoda in the center of the hall.
However, their advance was extremely difficult, as there was an even more powerful Magic Weapon Army blocking their way.
The battle between the two sides had lasted for three days and three nights.
The private army of the nobles had sent out a large number of cannon fodder, raising thick wooden shields high and slowly advancing toward the Wizard's Pagoda while chanting slogans. Behind them were the heavily armored infantry that the nobles had spent large amounts of money to build.
These heavily armored infantrymen were all wearing enchanted heavy armor that was two fingers thick. There were almost no gaps or cracks on the front of the armor, and even the cylindrical steel helmet on their faces only had a tiny cross-shaped gap.
As the elite troops of the private army of the nobles, these heavily armored infantry were generally equipped with heavy weapons such as spiked hammers, flails, and double-sided battle axes. They formed a row of ten people, crowding together. From afar, they looked like a group of iron walls that could move freely.
Behind them, there were archers dressed in simple leather armor, carrying longbows and short axes on their backs. They were not the normal arrangement of the private army of the nobles, but rather hunters and mercenaries that had been recruited temporarily.
Logically speaking, this kind of arrangement should have been enough for them to kill most of the enemies. Unfortunately, when they were not facing the human army, they were the ones being slaughtered and ravaged.
In front of the Wizard's Pagoda, about a hundred three-meter-tall metal Magic Weapons formed a loose defensive line, using the violent magic rifles in their hands to fire metal bullets at the approaching private army of the nobles.
In front of the battle formation, there were more than twenty spider-shaped Mechanical Puppet Beasts waiting in formation. Each of them was five meters tall, with a spindle-shaped spider body, raised spider head, and giant pincers made of complex alloy that shone with a magical luster.
Around the metal body were four pairs of dark and deep metal joints, the ends of which were as sharp as blades. When they crawled forward quickly, a light stab would leave a triangular hole in the hard lava slab.
The main attack weapon of this spider-shaped Mechanical Puppet Beast was actually a pair of giant chelicera-shaped chainsaws installed on the front of its body. When it smashed aside the wooden shields in front of it, its metal limbs moving as it charged into the crowd, the two enormous chelicera-shaped chainsaws released ear-piercing rumbling noises, producing dazzling sparks between flesh and steel.
In front of the spider-shaped Mechanical Puppet Beasts, ordinary human infantrymen did not even have the chance to resist and would be cut in half at the waist, dying a miserable death. Heavy infantrymen wearing thick armor might be able to resist in front of them for a while, then gather around them and use the heavy weapons in their hands to smash the metal shell with all their might.
As long as they had enough strength and the weapon was hard enough, there was a certain chance that the magical machinery inside the Mechanical Puppet Beast's body would be destroyed, causing it to lose its ability to fight.
But every time this happened, it was also the time when the Mechanical Puppet Beast would spit out crimson red flames from its mouth. Due to the density of the enemies and the fact that it was difficult for the heavy infantrymen to dodge, every time the Mechanical Puppet Beast was surrounded while spitting out flames and striding forward, the terrifying scene of human bodies being roasted and heated iron cans being heated was simply unbearable to look at.
The flames spat out by the Mechanical Puppet Beasts were alchemy flames with temperatures as high as one to two thousand degrees, which could directly turn a human body into charred bones upon contact. As for those heavy infantrymen, their clothes were ignited by the surging waves of flames, and even the iron plates outside their bodies were heated to a blazing red.
In this chaotic battlefield, there were no slave soldiers to help them take off their armor that had already been burnt to a crimson red. These heavy infantrymen were burned to the point that their flesh was lacerated amidst waves of cries and howls, and black smoke was rising from the inside of their armor.
Faced with such a miserable scene, all the nobles holding the line at the back were so shocked that their faces turned pale. One by one, they turned their gazes to the wizards sitting comfortably at the back of the troops.
Under the approval of the high-grade wizards, official wizards led numerous sorcerer-apprentices and quietly approached the Mechanical Puppet Beasts that were wantonly slaughtering the Mechanical Puppet Beasts.
Following the explosion of concentrated sorcery, twenty to thirty apprentice-level sorcery combined with two to three sorcerer level sorcery was enough to overturn the Mechanical Puppet Beasts one by one. Although the surface of the Mechanical Puppet Beasts was plated with a layer of anti-magic metal, following the eruption of the battle just now, it was inevitable that a certain degree of damage had appeared. Now that they were being concentrated and saturated by the sorcerers and apprentices, they were naturally defeated one by one.
