After a long period of repair, the battered Flame Monarch finally regained its vitality.
In the Magical Secret Room on the fifth level of the Wizard's Pagoda, a small Teleportation Portal on the Flame Altar slowly opened. Two different fire creatures appeared.
Due to the existence of the Wizard's Pagoda's Energy Defense System, the moment the two fire creatures appeared, twisting energy chains extended from the walls of the secret room, bypassing the fire creature on the left and wrapping around the one on the right.
"Stand down!"
With a loud roar, the defense mechanism of the secret room shut down, and the energy chains that extended around the Flame Tiger's body dissipated.
The blazing flames around his body were extinguished in an instant, revealing Grimm's handsome and youthful face. The fiery red elemental flames quickly turned into a red Wizard Robe that covered his tall and muscular body.
"Sir Sindar, welcome to my Wizard's Pagoda. I wonder if you plan to leave immediately or find a place to settle down? "
Being within his own Wizard's Pagoda, sensing the dense energy spectrum lines and Wizard Symbols surrounding his body, that incomparable sense of power made him no longer afraid of the level three Flame Tiger's coercion.
Even though the Flame Tiger Sindar was extremely powerful in the Fire Elemental Dimension, he did not dare fight the owner of the Wizard's Pagoda head-on in the Wizard World under the suppression of the Will of the Dimension. Even though the two of them had signed a friendly contract, they could not harm each other.
But the methods of Wizards were too strange and unpredictable. He could not be sure if the other party had any special methods to bypass the contract and set up a fatal trap for him. So when he heard Grim's question, he immediately shook his head and said, "I still have some matters to attend to. You can release the authority of the Wizard's Pagoda and send me into the Sea of Lava …"
"If that's the case, then I will not keep Sir Sindar. Please … "
Under Grim's control, not long after the Teleportation Portal on the Flame Altar had closed, a new Teleportation Portal slowly opened up. Through the dark red energy portal, he could faintly feel the raging Flame Energy on the other side of the portal. The rumbling sound of flowing lava was endless.
Using his mental power to sense, Sindar confirmed that the opposite side was indeed a free sea of lava. Without any hesitation, he dived in and disappeared without a trace.
After the door of light closed once again, Grimm pondered for a moment before closing his eyes to sense everything within the Wizard's Pagoda.
It seemed like the Wizard's Pagoda had suffered grave damage some time ago, and several regions at the lower levels of the Wizard's Pagoda had already broken free from the control of the Energy Defense System. Many Energy Black Holes had also appeared on the defense network of the Wizard's Pagoda. This also meant that the Energy Nodes within the walls of the Wizard's Pagoda had already been damaged, and it would be difficult for them to reach their previous state of fusion without undergoing a large scale repair.
Grimm's Mental Energy Tentacles were like an octopus, extending and circulating within the Wizard's Pagoda wantonly along the energy network, silently evaluating the repercussions of the previous battle.
Other than the damage done to the Wizard's Pagoda, Grimm could also sense that there were more than a dozen Wizards' Spiritual Seas within the pagoda. The Soul Aura of these Wizards was unfamiliar, but they had all left their Soul Imprints within the Wizard's Pagoda's Control Crystal.
As the owner of the Wizard's Pagoda, Grimm naturally had the highest authority!
He quickly read through everything that had happened in the Wizard's Pagoda over the past six months, including the tragic battles that had taken place around the Wizard's Pagoda. Soon, he completely understood the origins of these unfamiliar Magi.
They were Wizard captives who had chosen to work for the Crimson Family to atone for their crimes!
In the Control Crystal of the Wizard's Pagoda, Grimm also found many pieces of Wizard information from the Lance Dimension and the Gnome Dimension. There were even more pieces of Wizard information from the Lance Dimension in the Wizard's Pagoda's Control Crystal, as if Gazlurvi was eager to talk to him.
After a moment's hesitation, Grimm used the Control Crystal to contact Gazlurvi, who was far away in the Lance Dimension.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he connected with Gazlurvi's mind, a familiar Soul Ripple entered his mind.
"Grimm … Grimm … You're finally back! Hurry up and help me! As long as you can get my Redina back, I'm willing to form a partner contract with you … "
It was … the Lightning Dragon Armes!
The so-called partner contract was actually a more elegant way of referring to the Giant Dragon's enslavement contract.
Once a Giant Dragon signed such a contract with someone, it would not be able to reject the other party's request to fight. However, as a partner, the other party would not be able to force it to fight against enemies that were too powerful. In most of the material planes, intelligent races could only become Dragon Knights by signing a partner contract with a Giant Dragon.
The situation that a Level 3 Lightning Dragon was willing to give up part of its freedom must be very troublesome.
That was why Grimm did not agree to Armes' request rashly. Instead, he tried to find out all the secrets from Armes.
As expected, Armes was willing to become Grimm's contract dragon because he wanted Grimm to help him deal with a powerful Level 4 Giant Dragon — Skryl the Blue Sky Wing.
After Armes had lured the Emerald Dragons and Green Dragons to the Lance Dimension, he had indeed lived a carefree and happy life. Unfortunately, the proud Redina was not someone that could be restrained by a small Level 3 Giant Dragon's territory.
She led the Green Dragons on a campaign and conquered the territories of three Level 2 Giant Dragon Lords. One of the defeated Giant Dragons was a direct subordinate of the Blue Sky Wing, Skryl the Blue Sky Wing.
Hence, as expected, the reckless actions of Aretina and the other dragons had attracted the attention of this powerful Tier 4 Giant Dragon.
However, out of the expectations of all the 'dragons', the moment Azure Sky Wing Skryl saw her, he was attracted by her stunning beauty. After a series of boisterous interactions, the Blue Sky Wing Skryl had successfully captured the heart of the Tier 3 Emerald Dragon Race beauty Aretina. The two of them had actually gotten together very quickly, living and working together.
When Armes realized that the situation was bad and hurried over, he was taught a lesson by Skryl the Blue Sky Wing.
With the Thunder Dragon's strength, Armes was naturally no match for a Tier 4 Dragon. Hence, he had been suppressing his frustration for a long time now. In the end, he hardened his heart and came to Grimm to ask for help.
If not for the fact that he was at his wit's end and could not find anyone to help him deal with a Tier 4 Giant Dragon, he would never have taken the initiative to extend an olive branch to a Sorcerer.
After all, entering a partnership contract with a Sorcerer could cost him his freedom for the rest of his life.
Before meeting Grimm, the Tier 3 Thunder Dragon Armes had still been debating over whether or not it was worth it. Now, however, after making his request to Grimm, Armes could not help but feel anxious when he sensed Grimm's hesitant mental undulations. He was actually worried that Grimm would reject him.
After all, agreeing to Armes's request meant that he would have to face a Tier 4 Giant Dragon head-on!
Even Tier 4 Sorcerers would have to think twice before making a decision.
While Grim was pondering and frowning, a hidden and obscure secret message was transmitted into his mind.
"Agree to it! I can think of a way to deal with a Tier 4 Giant Dragon! "
It was Alice's voice.
With Alice's guarantee, Grimm instantly calmed down. After hesitating for a while, he pretended to reluctantly agree to Alice's request.
Seeing that the mysterious Sorcerer had agreed to his request, Armes could not help but let out a long cry of excitement.
"Then it's settled. As long as you help me defeat Skrill and take back Aretina, I'll immediately sign a partnership contract with you."
Grimm snorted coldly, "I'll do my best to defeat Skrill, but I can't promise you anything about taking back Aretina."
"That's fine too. I can swear in the name of the Dragon God that as long as you take Skrill away from Aretina, I'll immediately sign a partnership contract with you! " His heart burning with anger, Armes sliced his dragon claw without hesitation and swore a powerful oath using the Origin Contract.
"Then just wait for my news! I'll arrange this as soon as possible. "
After comforting Armes, Grimm cut off his communication with the Lance Realm and silently contacted Alice, who was far away in the Tower of Destiny.
Alice seemed to have been waiting for him for a long time. Their mental pulses instantly connected through the Wizard's Pagoda.
"Alice, are you really confident that you can deal with a Tier 4 Giant Dragon?" Grimm could not help but ask doubtfully.
To be honest, with the Crimson Family's current strength, they would not be able to deal with a Tier 4 Giant Dragon even if they mobilized all their forces. If they made a mistake and exposed their metal fortress, Zruvi might even be expelled from the Lance Realm by the Giant Dragons.
At that time, without the indestructible metal fortress, the Crimson Family's massive profits in the Lance Realm would be gone. The damage the Crimson Family would bring to the Crimson Family was immeasurable.
That was why Grimm was extra concerned about Alice's thoughts.
"Don't worry. I already have a plan for this." Alice comforted him with a gentle tone, "We won't need the family's strength to deal with that Tier 4 Giant Dragon."
"You mean …"
"Yeah, those grade 4 old Northern Witches still owe me a favor. Now is the time for them to repay it!"
Tier 4 Witches?
Since Alice had said so, it meant that the Crimson Family was going to open up the Lance Realm, which was rich in Dragon resources, to the Northern Witches. Although it was a pity, when Grimm thought about the powerful Tier 4 Giant Dragons in the Lance Realm, he felt that there was nothing he could do about it.
After all, if the Crimson Family did not get rid of the Tier 4 Giant Dragons, it would be wishful thinking for them to swallow the entire Lance Realm.
