Grade 4 … It's definitely Grade 4!
Under Grimm's command, the Elemental Magic Machine strode towards the exquisite coffin and pushed the lid to one side.
A cold, decaying aura gushed out from the coffin, causing the temperature in the catacombs to plummet.
If this wasn't the Chapel of Light, Grimm would have to be careful of the possibility of this Grade 4 corpse mutating. In the Planar World, Grade 4 was the limit of strength for most planes. At this level, one only needed to take one more step and they would be one step away from immortality.
That was why Grade 4 Knights who had reached the end of their lifespan would usually bury their corpses. If they did not take any precautions, with the powerful bodies and minds of Grade 4 creatures, there was almost a 100% chance that they would turn into Undead creatures after death.
That was why the Zambes Empire stored most of the corpses of the Holy Knights in the catacombs of the Chapel of Light, relying on the pure Holy Light to prevent their corpses from turning into powerful Undead.
As for the memorial and remembrance that was announced to the outside world, it was just a cover-up!
Lying in the coffin was a middle-aged man with a rough face and a purple-gold complexion. He was wearing a golden full-body armor, and a strange shield with a golden flying lion engraved on it was placed upside down on his body. There was also a strange-looking long sword placed on his side.
Although this Tier 4 Holy Knight had been dead for several hundred years, his skin and appearance were still vivid and lifelike. At a glance, the Holy Knight looked as if he was taking a nap. It was impossible to tell that he was already dead.
Grimm's black pupils flickered with a blue light as he quickly scanned the corpse of the Grade 4 Holy Knight. He could not sense any trace of soul in the corpse, but the strength of the body was still intact.
If a Necromancer saw such a well-preserved Grade 4 corpse, they would definitely be ecstatic. However, Grimm was not an expert in necromancy, so he could not turn this corpse into a powerful Undead. That was why he needed to think about how to maximize its value.
Grimm carefully reached out to touch the Grade 4 corpse and silently chanted the activation incantation, intending to store it in his Storage Ring. However, when a faint spatial fluctuation enveloped the corpse, an overflowing magical energy actually stopped Grimm's action.
Eh, what's going on?
Grimm narrowed his eyes and quickly found the source of the accident by following the fluctuations of magical energy!
Grimm found a magic ring embedded with a large white crystal on the pinky finger of the Grade-4 corpse. Even though it had gone through hundreds of years of silence and vicissitudes, it was still glistening with magical power and radiance. With a single glance, one could tell that it was no ordinary object.
Not to mention the magic ring, even the armor and weapons on the entire corpse were shining with a purple light. Based on the residual energy levels of these magic items, Grim was certain that they were all Tier-4 magic equipment.
It didn't matter if Grim could use them or not. If he brought them back to the Sorcerer World, they would definitely be worth a fortune.
Grimm carefully removed the white crystal ring from the finger of the corpse and held it up in front of his eyes to examine it.
"Beep, a high-energy magic item has been discovered. Would you like to perform a deep scan?"
"Let's scan!"
For ordinary magic rings, they either stored some kind of special spell or could be used to enhance the user's status. However, the magic ring in front of him was Tier-4, and the power it contained was naturally not something an ordinary magic ring could compare to. However, before he could analyse it, Grimm obviously could not use it.
With a strange buzzing sound, Grimm felt his spiritual force rapidly deplete. Finally, after a quarter of an hour, the A.I. Chip stopped scanning and analysing.
[Beep. Deep scan completed … The magic item's basic data is as follows …]
[Item name: Soden's Holy Ring]
[Item grade: Tier-4]
[Item attributes: + 5 Strength
+ 3 Vitality
+ 1 Agility]
[Special properties: This is the magic ring that the Tier-4 Holy Knight Soden loved when he was alive. It possesses indescribable power. According to the wearer's will, it can transform any energy into the purest holy light. When the wearer attacks an enemy, it can add 400 degrees of holy damage. It ignores defence and magic resistance!]
… …
Grimm's eyes widened as he stared at the stats of the magic ring projected in his mind by the A.I. Chip. His entire body could not help but tremble.
Damn it, as expected of a Tier-4 magic ring. Not to mention the additional stats, just the last special property alone was extremely powerful!
Every attack had an additional 400 degrees of holy damage. This terrifying power even surpassed most of Grimm's Tier-3 spells. The problem now was that he did not know if this additional damage was only effective against melee attacks or long-range spells.
If it was effective against long-range spells as well, then it would be equivalent to Grimm's spell strength increasing by 400 degrees. Moreover, it was the unpopular Holy attribute that ignored defence and magic resistance.
Grimm held the Ring of Soden in his hands and kissed it for a long time before he happily put it on his right pinky finger.
With it, Grimm immediately let the A.I. Chip scan his basic stats again.
[Grimm] (Basic Tier 3) Class Identity: Elemental Wizard (Flame Mastery) Basic Attributes: Strength 18 + 7, Constitution 21 + 4, Agility 11 + 2, Vitality 32 + 4. Class Skills: Body of Fire, Body of Flame Demon …
Now, even if Grimm did not transform into a Balrog, he still had 25 points of Strength and 25 points of Vitality. With this kind of physical strength, he could even fight a Tier-2 Silver Knight bare-handed without being at a disadvantage. Even without the protection of spells, his body could withstand the full-powered attack of a Tier-1 Fighter.
After taking off the Ring of Soden, the Tier-4 corpse no longer resisted the spatial fluctuations of the Storage Ring.
After storing all the items and corpses in the coffin into the Storage Ring, Grimm finally relaxed and began to collect the items that were not destroyed by the Flame Blast.
It was a rare harvest. The magical items in the Great Catacomb almost completely filled up Grimm's Storage Ring. After making sure that he did not miss anything, Grimm brought the Elemental Magic Machine back to the surface.
Grimm stayed in the Great Catacomb for a whole two hours. When he stepped out of the cathedral and soared into the sky, he realized that the Thunder Dragon Armes and the Flaming Tiger Sindar were nowhere to be found.
After all, they were summoned from another world by Grimm through a magic contract. It was impossible for them to stay in the Envik Realm for too long. Once the summoning time was up, they would return to their original realm under the restriction of the power of witchcraft.
Therefore, Grimm did not find it strange that they had disappeared.
Hovering high in the sky, Grimm could clearly see that the once beautiful and peaceful city was now in ruins.
Earlier on, the Type 3 powerhouses had engaged in a frenzied battle, destroying three streets and a large number of buildings in the city center. As for the Flame Gate that Grimm summoned, it released thousands of Otherworld Flame Creatures.
Grimm did not impose any restrictions on the flaming creatures, so they treated the human city as a place to roam and explore. They wandered aimlessly in Harkanth City.
Due to the hatred of life and the instinct of the Flame Creatures, wherever they went, they spread flames and slaughtered all living beings.
Therefore, the Flame Creatures were the ones that caused the most damage to the city!
As for the Tier-3 Thunder Dragon Armes and the Flaming Tiger Sindar, they were only here to seek wealth. As long as the humans did not block their way to the treasury, they did not have the time to slaughter them.
However, Grim could clearly see from the sky that the luxurious and luxurious City Lord's Mansion in the distance was already billowing with black smoke. Large parts of the building had their roofs dug out, and many storehouses had collapsed. It was a miserable sight to behold.
As for the commercial district on the other side of the city, it was also on fire, looking like it had been burnt to the top.
Grimm shook his head and sighed. He did not dare to stay here for too long. He put away his Elemental Equipment and summoned a Grade 1 Rock Python, which burrowed into the ground and disappeared.
… …
Magus World, Tower of Destiny.
On the astrological platform at the top of the Tower.
Even in the afternoon, when the sun was the brightest, the place was still dark. The dome was filled with faint starlight, and the entire hall was so dark that it made one's heart palpitate.
Alice was still sitting in front of the wooden table. She was wearing a starry robe, and her long silky hair was hanging loosely behind her back. She was arranging the tarot cards in her hand as she pleased, and at the same time, she was whispering to the shadow in the magic mirror in a gentle and pleasant manner.
Looking at their intimate and warm attitude, outsiders who did not know the truth would think that they were best friends!
"It's been a month. How's the situation on your side?" Alice shuffled the cards while pursing her lips, "But why do I feel that the life force of the guy you sent is getting weaker? Could it be that those natives seized the opportunity to encircle and annihilate him? "
Listening to Alice's sarcasm, the shadow in the magic mirror didn't say a word. He just stared at her coldly through the mirror.
The power of destiny was strange and unpredictable. It did not rely on one's basic strength like other domains.
For Physique Refinement Sorcerers, the stronger one's strength and constitution would give them a greater advantage in battle. The same principle applied to Elemental Sorcerers. However, Elemental Sorcerers valued the strength of their mental strength more.
For these two Witches of Destiny, strength would only allow them to scheme more and more, but it would not help in the competition of destiny.
