Grimm had gone into seclusion again!
This news was only spread amongst the higher-ups of the Crimson Family, and no one outside knew.
As for the reason why he had gone into seclusion, only a few people knew.
And this seclusion lasted for a long eight years …
…
"Lady Mary is back!"
"Lady Mary is back!"
The announcements quickly spread throughout the entire Wizard's Pagoda.
The apprentices who were still in the Wizard's Pagoda due to personal matters all swarmed out of their residences, sticking close to the walls and bowing respectfully to the beautiful red Witch.
"Welcome back, Lady Mary …" Words like "Welcome back, Lady Mary …" rang out.
Mary did not care about this, walking proudly in the middle of the welcoming group.
Eight years might have been a long time for an ordinary person.
However, for those high-ranking wizards, it was just the time spent on a large-scale witchcraft experiment.
Thus, Mary's appearance had not changed at all even after eight years.
If there was any change, it would be that she had become more mature, and more beautiful!
Her skin was as fair and flawless as jade, her silky, crimson hair flowing behind her, swaying as she walked.
Her face was exquisite and perfect, with a pair of bright, glowing crimson eyes. Looking from afar, they looked like a pair of perfect rubies. The corners of her eyes were slightly raised, a faint smile on her rose-petal-like lips.
She wore a bright red, tight-fitting leather armor, paired with a pair of black, tight-fitting leather pants. A green belt outlined her slender and beautiful waist.
That stunning curve, that smooth skin, it was enough to drive anyone crazy!
Anyone who saw her for the first time would think that she was a beautiful girl of eighteen to nineteen years of age. Who would have thought that this was a ruthless Vampire Wizard who killed without batting an eyelid, a Vampire Wizard who had slaughtered thousands of lives in another world?
Behind her was the Crimson Family's most popular Pink Army.
Walking at the front, following closely behind Mary, was the strange girl of mysterious origins, Emelia.
It had only been eight years since they last met, and Emelia had grown into a beautiful young lady. She wore a strange robe weaved from green vines and held a magic wand that glowed with a green light. There was a faint smile on her face as she glanced at the crowd of people who were welcoming her.
Her strength had already reached the pinnacle of the Type 1 realm!
It could be seen that Emelia had won Mary's favor these days, which was why she was at the forefront of the Pink Legion. Behind Emelia were seven female Blood Elves.
All of them were tall and slender, with long pointy ears. Their faces were exquisite and beautiful, and their figures were sexy and graceful. The most prominent feature they revealed was their pair of scarlet eyes, which added a hint of evil charm and murderous aura to their beauty!
This group of Blood Elves all had the strength of Level 1 or Level 2, and they also had a mix of various professions such as Battle Mage, Priest, and Archer. They had clearly become Mary's capable assistants in her battles.
Anyone would love to look at a beautiful woman who was pleasing to the eye, much less a Pink Army that was both pleasing to the eye and powerful. Thus, all of the acolytes in the Flame Monarch's Wizard's Pagoda swarmed out, using the most passionate and sincere cheers and applause to welcome Mary's return.
Over the past few days, the Crimson Family had spread their influence to every corner of the Elobis region.
Under the strong pressure of the Level 2 Worm Lich Lord Bliss, there were already three small Wizard organisations that had their legacies severed, and could only join the Crimson Family in silence. If not for the scattered Tower Forest Society suppressing the Crimson Family, not allowing them to expand their influence as they wished, the entire Elobis region would have become the Crimson Family's direct territory. There would no longer be any uncoordinated noise or unsightly 'trash'!
The Worm Lich Bliss expanded his territory in the Elobis region, while Mary chose to bring her Vampire Army to the Lance Dimension to seek help.
It only took three years for the brain monster, Gaz 'ruvi, to rebuild a giant metal city in a new area – the Eternal Capital.
In order to prevent the city from falling under the dragons' aerial attacks like a metal fortress, Gaz Rhuvi frantically strengthened its defensive capabilities at all costs.
The Magic Iron Fortress's three-meter-thick outer shell, five Giant Magic Cannons, and over a thousand Mana Cannons … Including the 70,000-strong Mana Machine Army inside the Eternal Capital, the Dragons would have to pay a price that would make even a Tier 4 Dragon weep in pain if they tried to break through this steel fortress.
After the Eternal Capital was built, Mary, Zacha, and Tigule became frequent visitors.
In the days when Grim was in seclusion, Mary, Zacha, and Tigule led the Dragon Slaying Team to seek help everywhere, killing or capturing lone Tier 1 and Tier 2 Giant Dragons. The Dragon Devourer Olivia also came after hearing the news, becoming the deepest dagger in their team.
During these eight years, two Tier 3 Witches paid their own Mana Crystals to come to the Eternal Capital. Then, they used the most violent methods to abduct two Tier 3 Giant Dragons. The Crimson Family obtained 1.2 million Mana Crystals and two massive dragon lairs filled with all sorts of treasures and resources.
Of course, the Crimson Family's increasingly rampant activities had also raised the alarm of the Dragon Lords of the Lance Dimension. Three years after the Eternal Capital was built, the Dragon Slaying Team, led by five Tier 3 Dragons, launched a large-scale attack.
And the result of this battle gave the Giant Dragons a huge shock!
Out of the five Tier 3 Dragons, two were injured and forced to flee … As for the remaining Dragons, they either ran away or were captured. Unexpectedly, they suffered a crushing defeat.
One had to admit that with the two Magic Furnaces overseeing the city, the Magic Cannons provided nearly infinite Mana, turning the sky above the Eternal Capital into a forbidden land for flying. Meanwhile, the Mana Cannons' attacks were the equivalent of a Tier 3 powerhouse's full-powered attack, dealing significant damage to the Dragon.
The two injured Tier 3 Dragons that had fled had been injured by these cannons!
As the Magic Cannons took a long time to charge up and had a long cooldown, the brain monster Gaz 'luwe had no choice but to build five of them in one go. When a group of Dragons attacked, he would use the Magic Cannons to bombard them from afar. When they got close, he would use the Magic Cannons to bombard them one after another.
A random punch could kill an old master!
With such an impregnable metal city and a fierce city defense system, the attacking Dragons met their Waterloo. They suffered a crushing defeat under the Great City Cannons.
In this battle, the Crimson Family managed to capture seven Dragons in one go. One of them was even a Tier 2 Dragon!
It was unknown whether Mary was blessed by the God of Luck or that the Tier-2 Dragon was truly unlucky, but after a small attempt, Mary actually succeeded in transforming the Tier-2 Dragon into a Blood Dragon.
With this, aside from the two Tier 2 Blood Knights and three Tier 2 Blood Elves, Mary now had a Tier 2 Blood Dragon. This allowed the Vampire Army to once again become the strongest faction within the Crimson Family!
To be honest, if not for the close relationship between Grimm and Mary, anyone else in Grimm's shoes would be worried about such a powerful 'subordinate'.
Mary had just brought her people into the Wizard Hall when a tsunami of screams and exclamations came from the Sorcerers Apprentices behind her. With the combined strength of the two Blood Knights and the Blood Dragon, a Tier 2 Dragon tied up like a rice dumpling was carried into the Wizard's Pagoda.
Over the past few days, Lady Mary had been able to reap some rewards every time she led a team to attack the Lance Realm. However, most of them were Tier 1 Dragons. A live Tier 2 Dragon like the one she saw today was still rare. This also meant that the Crimson Family would be able to earn more than a million Magic Crystals!
"You, you, you … Put this Earth Dragon in jail and lock it up properly. Let's see which blind customer will take a liking to it in the future … You, send all the gems and materials in the bag to Lana. Get her to work overtime to appraise them all … Remember, tell her that if she dares to send a Tier 3 Morning Star Gem to Kabi as a Luminous Stone again, I'll hang her up and teach her a lesson …"
The large bat wings on Mary's back unfurled, lifting her to the top of the hall that was more than five meters above the ground. This allowed her to clearly see every member in the hall.
The people she had called out to carry the Giant Dragon were Body Tempering Apprentices that the family had just nurtured. They had the strength of high-level or Prospective Wizards. Only monsters with muscles like them could lift such a heavy Tier 2 Earth Dragon.
The family appraiser Lana, who had been called out by Mary, rushed into the hall hurriedly. Her face immediately turned red when she heard the sharp sarcasm. However, when her gaze landed on the bags of various sizes on the Blood Dragon's back, cold sweat instantly rolled down her forehead. She screamed, "So … So … Many …"
It would be fine if it was an ordinary item. With her Wizard level mental energy, an apprentice level Appraisal Spell would be able to easily deal with it. However, if it was a Magical Item, she would probably need a Wizard level Appraisal Spell or Magical Item Inspection Spell to get a vague answer.
However, there were so many Giant Dragon treasures in front of her. How many Wizard level Appraisal Spells would she need to appraise all of them?
In the previous few trips to the Giant Dragon treasures, Gargamel, as the Chief Manager of the Crimson Family, had even opened up a Magical Energy Fountain from the Energy Room of the Wizard's Pagoda to Lana's residence. He had her drink a Magical Energy Potion when she was out of Magical Energy, and a Spiritual Vitality Potion when she was out of energy. She had spent fifteen days and nights to complete the mission …
However, the number of Giant Dragon treasures in front of her was obviously two to three times more than the last time, and the quality and level of the Magical Items were also higher than before. This … Lana would probably have to appraise until she died to complete the mission!
