Age of Adepts

It was originally a dark and damp crypt.

But after Greem's simple transformation, it became a simple and comfortable underground palace.

After leaving Hakans City, Greem also found a safe place nearby, and used the rock python to plunge 30 meters into the ground, quickly opening up a crude burrow covering an area of ​​50 square meters.

As for the ubiquitous moisture in the ground, a high-temperature barrier turned the originally moist soil into hard rock and soil. Then Greem took out a lighting stone and inlaid it on the top of the cave, and input a little magic power, so the place became bright.

Unleashing elemental magic equipment to serve as sentries, Greem rebuilt a stone bed in a corner of the crypt, and lay down on it with his clothes on, and fell asleep.

It had been 37 days since he broke into the Envik plane, and under the harassment of that annoying sword girl for more than a month, Greem almost never really slept, and rarely even practiced deep meditation. Although as a level 3 wizard, his physical strength was comparable to most monsters, but mental fatigue was unavoidable.

The erratic running around in the past few days, the spiritual backlash caused by the destruction of the flame clone, and the huge loss of spirit caused by the battle of Hakans City, these accumulations also made Greem a little tired. Once the safe place was opened, he fell asleep without saying a word, and fell into the deepest sleep.

It has to be said that for human beings, sleep is still the best way to relieve fatigue and relieve mental stress!

After Hei Tian fell asleep, Greem slowly woke up from his sleep when his mental fatigue completely disappeared. Sitting up in a daze, he yawned and stretched. Greem shook his head lightly, and then he completely recovered his sanity.

"Chip, how long have I been asleep?"

"40 hours, 37 minutes, 52 seconds..."

"Uh...it's been so long!" Greem rubbed his hungry belly and said with a wry smile, "No wonder I feel so hungry."

In fact, with the physique of a third-level wizard, even if he didn't eat for more than a month, he wouldn't feel hungry. The only reason why Greem felt this way was that his own energy consumption was too severe.

The Balrog heart that was reconstructed and implanted at level 1 was nothing but a level 2 demonized organ. When Greem's strength is weak, the energy output and power blessing it brings to Greem is undoubtedly very huge. Even Greem's ability to successfully complete the Balrog's transformation was achieved by channeling the demonic aura within the Balrog's heart.

But now that Greem has advanced to the third level, the flame witchcraft he stimulates or urges is often above four or five hundred degrees. This kind of energy level is no longer what the heart of the second-level Balrog can bear and bear. And the combat power bonus that the Balrog's transformation brought to Greem was no longer as huge as it used to be.

When facing level 3 enemies, the Balrog Transformation, which had helped him defeat powerful enemies many times, also degenerated into a relatively weak witchcraft ability, but it was not as flexible and flexible as the body of flame.

It was precisely because of the 'weakness' of Balrog's Heart that Greem's combat strength was weakened, and he could no longer overwhelm the audience with his terrifying and powerful strength as in the past.

If there is no need to fight, the flame energy requirement of the body is low, and the energy output by the Balrog Heart can basically meet Greem's activity needs. But once faced with a fierce battle, the flame energy output by the Balrog Heart would become insufficient, and Greem would need to spend a lot of mental energy to absorb the free magical energy in the converging plane space.

And this is the main reason for the rapid decline of the flame energy reserve in Greem's body!

Where does energy come from? From those high-energy foods, of course!

Therefore, after waking up, Greem also chose to eat and drink to make up for the lack of energy in his body, just like Katie Katie.

However, Katie Katie gnawed on a group of ferocious earth bears with a strength of only level 1, but what Greem took out of his pocket, and devoured crazily after a simple barbecue was level 3 dragon meat.

The energy gap between the two is simply incomparable!

After eating ten catties of dragon meat, Greem felt the warm breath slowly dissipating from his belly, and Greem burped comfortably, and his mind returned to its usual sharpness.

After getting enough sleep and food, it is time to review what I have gained in Hakans City.

That 4th-rank Soden Holy Ring is undoubtedly a high-level magic item far beyond the level of Greem's strength. With it, even though Greem is only a level 3 junior wizard, he still possesses the powerful power to crush ordinary level 3 wizards.

In order to avoid exposing its power in advance, Greem had no choice but to cast a 'camouflage technique' on it to make it less conspicuous on the surface.

After playing with the Holy Ring of Soden fondly for a long time, Greem brought it back to the little finger of his right hand, and then inspected other items.

In the next second, the Plague Poison Spirit that was integrated with his soul crawled out of the void, running around in front of him like a delicate doll.

Level 3...

After the battle of Hakans City, not only did Greem gain a lot, but even this plague poisonous spirit successfully advanced to Tier 3. Moreover, the jump of this level also caused some strange changes in its existence.

At level 1, this soul weapon exists completely in the form of a spell book...

At the second level, it has transformed into a wooden doll covered with strange runes...

Now that it has reached level 3, it is getting closer to a real living body. At least, from the outside, it looks like a strange little boy who is only 1 meter tall, with dark green skin and green eyes. His body is naked, and there is no sex organ between his legs.

Although its every move is still a bit dull and sluggish, it can't be as flexible as a real living body. But when 'he' was running happily around Greem, Greem still had the illusion that he suddenly had a 'son'.

"Master, I also want a name..."

While Greem was pondering and smiling, a timid child's voice came into his ears. And the other party's request also made him move slightly.

"Name? Why do you want a name?" Greem asked with a smile.

"Because the master has a name, Alice has a name, and Mary has a name, so... I want a name too!" It was obviously the first time that Plague Poison Spirit actively communicated with others. Although he stuttered at first, once Once you speak, your speech will become smoother and more natural.

Greem noticed that the plague poisonous spirit obviously has a spiritual connection with himself, and if he wants to communicate through a spiritual channel, he can instantly understand all of each other's thoughts and ideas, without using the "clumsy" and "ancient" communication method of language at all. .

However, it did it this way. Moreover, it still uses the common language of the Zambes Empire on the plane of Envik. This also means that Plague Poison can completely grasp Greem's almost huge knowledge reserve by virtue of the characteristics of soul fusion.

Although it is limited to its own talent, it cannot cast flame witchcraft, but most of the witchcraft knowledge summarized and organized by the chip can be shared.

Greem sighed deeply.

After spending so much effort and consuming such a huge amount of resources, I finally upgraded this strange item bound to my soul to level 3. From now on, it is no longer a chicken rib, but a powerful Tier 3 'assistant' who can really help him.

However, isn't this 1-meter-long body a bit small? What capabilities does it have?

As if sensing Greem's doubts, the Plague Poison Spirit took the initiative to let go of his mind, and presented his true side in front of Greem.

Target creature: Plague Spirit (tentative name)

Target race: magic spirit

Target level: Tier 3

Target basic attributes: strength 3 constitution 8 agility 5 spirit 31

Target magic property: poisonous property

Target Talent Abilities: Toxic Aura, Plague Spores, Soul Toxin, Plague Transformation

...

...

The list of skills projected by the chip is densely filled with combat skills with strange names and abilities. These are the basic abilities that Plague Poison has mastered so far, and as it progresses, these combat abilities will continue to be strengthened.

Greem browsed through all the data of the plague poisonous spirit, and couldn't help pondering.

It can be seen that the Plague Poison Spirit is also a special contracted creature that needs human protection to exert its powerful strength. Its strength, physique, and agility are obviously low, and they are only on the same level as those official wizards who have just advanced.

And all its strength is concentrated on the spirit.

The only thing I don't know now is how it fights? I am afraid that this point needs to be explored and corrected a little bit during the long combat career.

"From now on, your name will be Remy!"

Hearing Greem's words, the little boy covered in dark green cheered happily, and ran up and down to play with that big guy (Elemental Magic Equipment).

But Greem hesitated for a moment, took off the strange soul-gathering crystal from his waist, and held it in front of his eyes.

"Chip, scan and detect Soul Gathering Crystal!"

"Drip, the scanning work has started..."

With the slow flow of mental power, a dazzling blue light shot out from Greem's black pupils and hit the Soul Gathering Crystal. Vaguely, thousands of shrill and sharp soul wailings resounded from the soul-gathering crystal, making Greem dizzy for a while.

After a quarter of an hour, the scanning of the chip came to an end, and a new test report was presented to Greem.

Scan object: Gathering soul crystal

Target species: higher energy aggregate

Number of objects: After scanning, a total of 175 high-energy individuals were found, with a total energy intensity of 7963 Pato. One of the third-order individuals has an energy intensity of 4214 Pato, accounting for 51.92% of the total energy value. There are 18 Tier 2 individuals with an energy intensity of 2946 Pato, which is 36% of the total energy value of the battle. There are 156 Tier 1 individuals with an energy intensity of 803 Pato, accounting for about 12% of the total energy value...

After in-depth scanning and detection, these high-level pure belief energies can be absorbed and assimilated by the main body, and can supplement the spiritual attributes of the main body in a targeted manner.

After absorbing these belief energies, the subject needs to purify the spiritual energy on a regular basis, otherwise unpredictable spiritual variations will occur. To perform a ritual of spiritual energy purification requires witchcraft resources as follows:  …

Looking at the data and messages projected by the chip, Greem's eyes lit up suddenly, and his interest suddenly rose!
