Age of Adepts Chapter 257: Alice returns
Remember [lnmao.org] in one second, fast update, no popup, free to read!
Maisilan is dead!
An old veteran Adept with good strength has died inexplicably in a humble battlefield!
This shocking fact makes both belligerents a bit unbearable.
Caltea Hill is a land that is no more than 120 miles, with one city, two schools, three cities, and seven or eight human villages. Even if these manor houses and villages are ground into flour and converted into Magic Crystal, they can't stand the true value of an old-fashioned Adept .
So the tripartite strike came more to test the strength of Sarubo Clan on behalf of the forces and organizations behind them. If Sarubo Clan really suffers in the strength of Planar War, it will inevitably adopt a strategic contraction and give up some benefits. Then exchange space for time to fight for the restoration of your own strength.
It can be said that throughout the Sandtalin Region, such border wars occur almost daily, and the Adept Family and adept organization involved in it are not a minority. But dying a Adept for this, it became very rare.
As a party to the invasion, Carlos of the Mikain family can only helplessly declare that the party has been defeated, and the two sides have sat down again and negotiated the difficult compensation matters.
The occupied cities have to spit out one by one, and the looted villages have to double their compensation. The Mikain family even needs to come up with a lot of rare resources to compensate for the substantial loss of Sarubo Clan. As long as the Mikain family does not want to escalate the conflict between the two sides into a comprehensive family war, then this is the end of the matter.
As for the subsequent Mikain family's compensation for Black Hand Association to which Maisilan belongs, that is another matter.
And Grim and Kou Gen returned Ferdinand City directly after finishing the matter here.
But after this battle, Grim's frightening Fire Demon reputation also spread.
With one enemy and two, you can powerfully kill an old Adept . This kind of strength is a miracle for a new Adept !
It is said that a few days after the strike between the two sides, there were a lot of Adept who rushed to Rockall Castle to check the remains of the battle there. Every Adept who has seen the battlefield has a solemn look and a solemn expression!
Seriously, it has become so devastated that it is no longer suitable for human habitation.
It's like there was a violent volcano that once erupted there. The battlefield is full of terrible lava left by the magma rolling and cooling down. Break apart and crush some strange towering lava stones, and you will find some basically preserved metal armors inside, and the flesh and blood in the armor has been stirred up with the molten molten iron, and it becomes difficult to split.
The closest Rockall Castle to the battlefield has withstood the horrible Witchcraft strike. Most of the castle buildings have softened into mud, and then re-solidified into weird shapes.
Fortunately, with the compensation of the Mikain family, that Donner Viscount is more than enough to rebuild five castles.
After this battle, those bright and dark storms against Sarubo Clan will naturally disappear. Many families or organizations that originally wanted to find cheap in Sarubo Clan have also died down and become re-watched.
However, Grim also successfully harvested the hatred of Black Hand Association!
After Grim returned to Ferdinand City, I simply learned that this Black Hand Association is just a small-type organization with a 7-bit Adept . Except that their chairman is Second Grade Adept , that Maisilan is already the most powerful First Grade Adept in their organization.
Knowing such a message, Grim smiled and put the other's hatred behind. With a family standing behind, the other Second Grade Adept would not be able to come to him for trouble, otherwise Sarubo Clan's Third Grade Adept would kill his Black Hand Association in minutes.
As long as it is a fair showdown with open fire and bright arrows, the killer Grim has really not jealous of any First Grade Adept .
Given that Grim contributed a lot in the Battle of Rockall Castle, Kou Gen Adept took part of the Mikain family's war compensation to make up for his battle loss.
20,000 Magic Crystal, 5 points of family contribution, a large amount of Adept resources, and 3 Elemental Crystal Core of Adept level.
With these, Grim will naturally hide in Adept Tower of Ferdinand City, and will regain his strength day and night.
I have to say that the strange smoke of Maisilan and Carlos' Powerful Curse still brought him a lot of influence. Until the 7th day after the war, he was considered to have expelled all negative Witchcraft in his body and readjusted his body to the best status/mode.
Through this battle, Grim also clearly saw its advantages and disadvantages, and began to plan for the future Spell Path.
On the battlefield, the power of fire attribute Witchcraft is undoubtedly the most powerful, and this has been fully verified. However, in the small-type battle between Adept , the huge power of fire attribute Witchcraft may not be completely released.
It can be said that if there is no self-detonation of Flame Lord, and if there is no powerful instant Witchcraft of Scroll of Voodoo, Grim wants almost one enemy and two to achieve victory is almost a luxury hope!
So if Grim wants to continue to maintain its combat advantage, then strengthening its strength is the only way out.
However, the growth rate of Spiritual Force is urgent. It can only be improved by the hard work of meditation. Of course, searching for some suitable Spiritual Force potion or ingredients with good supplements is also a way.
But it obviously takes an extremely long process!
So if you want to strengthen and improve your strength in a short time, Magic Puppet and Otherworld Runes are the most promising efforts. And he promised the Underground Cave Adept 's Sky City party, and it will be another half year.
So after deep thinking, Grim decided to prioritize those Otherworld Runes, use them to strengthen their Witchcraft rune-marked body and Magic Puppet, and then consider other content.
Moreover, his trip to Other World has also harvested so many resources and unique item. It also takes a period of precipitation and accumulation to consolidate his foundation and complete the lack of Witchcraft knowledge.
So, in the next month, Grim hid in Adept Tower, stayed in the shallows, and soaked in magic laboratory all day, never showing up again.
Of course, during this period, Grim was not completely isolated from the world, but remained in touch with the outside world. On the third day he chose to retreat, the little Alice who ran out to do the task ran back and met him.
I haven't seen it in three or four months. I have to say that the progress of Alice's strength has made Grim all look sideways. It may take only a year and a half of effort to develop at this rate, and Alice can reach the standard of Adept .
"Bring it!" Alice opened his hand as soon as he broke into the Grim's room.
"What?" Grim was confused.
“Of course it ’s my gift!” Alice rolled his eyes angrily: “You ran a trip to Other World. It ’s impossible to bring back any gifts, right?”
Grim was speechless for a while.
"This ... Alice, it seems that I am your master! You maid didn't do anything and wanted to benefit from me, I'm afraid ..."
Hearing this, Alice, who was just as airy as before, immediately turned into a smile.
"Dear host, dear host, don't know what you need the lovely Alice to do for you?"
Seeing Alice's fearless appearance, Grim couldn't help but have a headache, and then sneered sneerly: "Since you grew up in a rich family, don't you know what a maid can do?"
"Sleep?" Alice cheered cheerfully: "Wow, wow! How about tonight? The lovely Alice is here to warm you up!"
Grim is completely speechless with a hand held amount.
Even though I know that the Alice in front of me is just lip service, but facing a little loli whose body and face are solidified at 7 years old, Grim is really unable to move forward and backward like facing the enemy.
I mean, this Alice is almost 17 years old. But this loli's body, this immature childlike face, really makes it difficult for her to be treated as her peers!
If her talent is ordinary, then she has such a stubborn character, Grim has already left her aside to eat soil. However, I saw the magic of a top-level "God Stick" in plane, Grim couldn't help but be curious about the "Destiny Sorceress" name on Alice.
If ... you can cultivate a Prophet that belongs to you, it will be of great significance for the future.
Because of this idea, Grim also has strong expectations for Alice. If you can have a chance to draw closer to her, then Grim will definitely not hesitate.
Grim looked up and thought, she can be useful to her, and it's not too shabby, it seems that there is only that thing!
Thinking of this, Grim waved to open the Witchcraft protection of the residence. A faint layer of dazzling light appeared on the walls, floor and ceiling of the residence. In this way, even those guys who have the most top-level permissions of Adept Tower, don't want to spy on the secrets of his residence without touching the perception of Grim.
"You ... what do you want to do ..." Alice stepped back sharply, both hands clutched his collar tightly, his eyes panicked, his expression panicked.
"Hum, just because of your sprout-like figure, the ghost is interested in making your idea!" Grim said badly: "Aren't you asking for a gift? Here, this is my gift for you!"
In other words, Grim took out a gray cloth pocket from storage belt and handed it to Alice with resentment.
"It's not my idea! What a gift Ah? looks so ugly ..." Alice squeezed the cloth pocket with two fingertips while pinching his nose.
Cloth pocket is obviously not magicked item, it is a common pocket sewn from linen and coarse cloth. It is not only worn out but also smells of decay and decay as the mouth of the bag is opened.
Seeing that the packaging of the gift was so rude, Alice instantly lost confidence in the content inside.
She stomped her nose, resisted nausea, and drew a strange fist-sized stone out of it.
"This is the gift you brought me from Iplane? A broken stone!"
Alice rolls his eyes, and then throws away the stone.
But as soon as the gray stone left her palm, a silver line of dazzling light sparkled in the air. The stone had not waited for the ground to fall, the silver thread began to oscillate, and the void in front of him faintly opened a small mouth. And that stone seemed to have its own intellect, and in a blink of an eye, the void hole disappeared into this plane.
Alice's harsh screams finally sounded.
"Void Stone!"
