He was on tenterhooks along the way, but the journey back to the Wizard Tower was quite smooth.
When Grimm used a secret spell to disperse the Lightning Giant's huge body of wind elemental energy, the towering Elemental Puppet turned into seven crystal clear magic cores in the blink of an eye.
Without waiting for Grim to put them away, Mary rushed forward and snatched them into her hands. She stroked them over and over again as if she couldn't bear to part with them. After a while, as if she felt that just looking at them was not enough to express her love, Mary picked up the main core and gently rubbed it on her face, quietly feeling the slight numbness from the lightning that bloomed on her face.
"Ugh …" Seeing this, Grimm could not help but frown.
"Come on, these things look beautiful and pure, but in fact, they are battle puppets that kill without batting an eyelid!" Mary had just seen its violent and cruel side, yet she was still reluctant to part with it. This … This made Grimm feel that there were not many normal people on the path of a Magus!
Holding back the endless ridicule in his heart, Grimm finally took back his number one Magic Puppet from Mary and threw a ball of blood crystals to her. With the Rock Python's control of the earth element, it was not a problem to remove the mud from the pool of blood. He could only hope that Toriel's strength did not fall too much after losing so much blood. Otherwise, he would have gained a mortal enemy for nothing in the future.
After the battle, the Lightning Giant's crystal cores were fine, but the Rock Python Puppet's summoning crystal core was seriously damaged. The most direct result of using a high-level Rock Python Devil Puppet to tangle with a powerful Bloodline Quasi Sorcerer was that after Grimm dispelled the Devil Puppet's body, he found that the Summoning Crystal Core he had picked up was in a state of chaos, and its magical aura was surging. It was no longer of much use.
Grimm carefully examined it for a long time. When the A.I. Chip confirmed that the crystal core could no longer be repaired, he could only regretfully put it away.
After tidying up everything at the edge of the mountain range, the two quietly returned to the Magus Tower. However, just as the two of them were about to step into the gate of the Wizard Tower, a pair of Gargoyle statues squatting on both sides of the gate suddenly moved their bodies.
The gargoyle on the left crouched down from the stone platform and stared at Grim with its stone eyes. The gargoyle squeaked as its limbs rubbed against each other.
"Hey, little fella, Enforcer Lord Angus wants you to go to his residence immediately!"
As soon as it finished speaking, it retracted its body and returned to its previous pouncing posture, motionless and silent.
Grim was startled.
He had been going in and out of this place many times, and every time, he would see the pair of gargoyles guarding the entrance. However, he didn't expect them to be puppets, and wizards at that.
It seemed that this seemingly defenseless public Magus Tower was not as weak as he thought!
As a result, the rest of the journey became a terrifying journey that made one's hair stand on end. Wherever Grim and Mary went, the seemingly inanimate statues and the shepherdesses hanging on both sides of the corridor would all come to life, repeating the same words.
"Quick, go find Wizard Angus!"
Faced with these prompts, if the two of them still did not know that they were being watched by Wizard Angus, they would really be fools. However, this was what scared the two of them the most. They had no idea what method Angus was using to monitor them.
Thus, in a depressing atmosphere, the two of them walked into Angus' residence on the fifth floor of the Magus Tower.
Wizard Angus met them in the laboratory.
It was not as gloomy as he had imagined, nor was there any blood flowing everywhere. This official Magus' private laboratory was clean and tidy. The lights were bright, and it had the style and style of a high-grade laboratory. However, Grim could feel a glaring red glow in many bottles and jars. Whether it was a lively little animal or a single magic organ, they all emitted a strong energy aura.
This Wizard Angus was obviously concocting some kind of special magic potion. The laboratory table in front of him was filled with sulfurization bottles and reagents of different sizes. When the two of them arrived at the laboratory, Angus was gently shaking a sulfurization test tube in his hand. From time to time, he would raise it in front of his eyes to observe it carefully.
The test tube contained some blue mysterious potion. Every time Angus shook it, the blue potion inside would bubble and transform into various forms of sea creatures. Sometimes it was a mermaid riding a seahorse, sometimes it was a demon whale waving its tail and spraying water, and sometimes it was a group of silver swordfish jumping and chasing each other … In short, every time the test tube shook, they would change into different forms, appearing strange and mysterious.
Mary had never been able to resist such magical things, but she could not act presumptuously in an official Wizard's laboratory. She could only move her mouth to ask Grim. Perhaps Mary's rank was far higher than Grim's, but when it came to knowledge of magic and how to use it effectively, Grim was more than three streets ahead of her.
The blood of the deep sea mermaids!
Grim also mouthed the same thing. Only the blood of the deep sea mermaids in the deepest part of the Endless Ocean could have this special hallucinogenic effect. That's right, the magical scene they saw just now was not real. It was just the power of the illusion that was triggered by the slight vibration of the blue blood.
After a while, Wizard Angus put down the test tube in his hand and turned around to stare at the two of them.
"Just now, the head of the Wharton family protested to me, saying that your reckless behavior has damaged the dignity of their family. He asked me to hand you over to them to deal with. Do you think I should listen to his suggestion? "
Mary frowned. She really did not know how to answer. She tilted her head and stared at Grim, signaling him to answer with her eyes.
Grimm smiled and bowed: "Dear Lord Angus, as far as I know, the patriarch of the Wharton Family is an ordinary person! As a normal person, what right does he have to give you orders? If they really want me and Mary's life to atone for their crime, then the Wizard behind them will personally ask for it. "
Wizard Angus also squinted his eyes and looked at the pair in front of him in surprise.
Vampire and puppet master!
Not only that, but they were also elite Vampires and intermediate puppet masters!
But what made him surprised was that the core of this team was this weak intermediate Wizard Apprentice!
Was it because of this kid's excellent potential as a puppet master? Or was there some other reason? Otherwise, why would that elite Vampire girl be willing to give up her right to speak?
It had to be known that acolytes who were able to walk the path of a Magus were never good people. They were all arrogant and conceited, ambitious people who placed themselves at the center of everything. Asking them to be humble and kind to the weak was simply the biggest joke in the world.
Therefore, whenever a Sorcerer needed to form a team with someone else, the most powerful person in the team would be the leader, and everyone else would follow their lead. This was even more obvious among the apprentices, so Angus showed great interest in this team.
"Kid, just relying on your mouth is useless. You've messed with Toriel, the most promising wizard of the Wharton Family. I heard that because of your reckless behavior, that guy's advancement will be delayed by at least 3 years! Hehehe … Now the people of the Wharton family are going crazy, and they are looking for you everywhere. I'm afraid that when you walk out of here, there will be a group of people waiting to capture you and take the reward! "Wizard Angus sneered with evil intentions.
Grimm's heart tightened, but he was more helpless than anything.
If the Wharton family was really as strong as Wizard Angus said, they might not even have the chance to step into the Wizard Tower before they could even be captured. Now that Angus had said this, and his words were so threatening, he was afraid that they would be forced to walk into the trap. Facing the threat of an official Wizard, what choice could these 2 little wizard apprentices make?
"Honorable Mr. Angus, Mary and I are just little wizard apprentices. Of course, we will listen to everything you say. Is there anything we can do for you? "
Seeing Grimm being so tactful, Wizard Angus let out a satisfied smile.
"Take out your puppet and let me have a look!"
Without saying anything, Grimm cupped his hands and handed it over.
Using his fingers to pinch a few crystal cores, Angus's smile became even wider.
"It seems like you made it yourself!"
"Yes!"
"I'll give you 3 years. Can you become a wizard?" Wizard Angus suddenly changed the topic.
"Ah …" Grimm was so shocked that he couldn't say anything. Even Mary couldn't help but widen her eyes.
"There's nothing to be surprised about! I can only protect you for 3 years at most. Once that Toriel becomes a wizard first, I won't have any reason to stop him from taking revenge on you. As for the clamor of his family, it won't affect me. After all, you defeated him in a fair fight. If the family had to step in for this, then the Wharton family would lose all their face. But … "
"Mary and I are willing to pay any price for your protection. Do you have any orders?"
"Hehehe … It's so easy to talk to a smart guy like you. Here, this is a wizard contract. Sign it! Don't worry, I don't care about your current strength. Once you sign this contract, you will be signing a contract with the Byron family. I can use the family's name to protect you from the Wharton family for 3 years. "
"What do I have to pay for this?"
