Age of Adepts

Just when the major families were struggling with the invasion of foreign worlds and were exhausted, a more worrying thing happened.

According to the feedback from various monitoring points, the monsters in the depths of the Black Forest are rapidly gathering and converging, and there is a great tendency to rush out of the Black Forest in the short term.

Moreover, this is not a single action of individual monster lords, it seems to be a large-scale riot spontaneously and consciously in the entire Black Forest. The magic energy pouring into the plane during the magic tide is full of chaos and tyranny, and these monsters are all brutal and ferocious.

It is conceivable that such terrifying monsters gathered together, and then engulfed a larger number of beasts. Once it breaks out of the Black Forest, what a huge impact it will have on human society!

If it is not dealt with properly, I am afraid that the foundation of the entire wizard civilization will be shaken.

Moreover, the riot of the herd was not an isolated incident in one or two regions, but a fierce counterattack by the entire black forest of the wizarding world.

For tens of thousands of years, wizards suppressed and killed monster lords and kings too freely. Now that the demon tide is fueling the flames, it's time for the monster lords to avenge their hatred and hope to regain the dominance of the plane!

It has to be said that the wizards have been too lazy all these years, and it has been a long time since they cleaned up the high-level monsters in the depths of the Black Forest. So, beyond their perception, a group of new monster lords grew up, and they were eager to advance to become the monster kings who ruled the entire Black Forest.

As for the monster lords who want to become kings, launching a counterattack against the wizard group is the most direct and easiest method for them to make achievements!

Among their target choices, the Wizarding Association is too powerful to touch...

The puppet army of the Silver Alliance is in such a mess, it cannot be touched...

Although the witches of the Northland are a little weaker, they are very clumped together when they are in unison, and it is not easy to touch...

Therefore, the central part of the continent, which is like a plate of loose sand, has become the only goal and object for the monster lords in the depths of the black forest to sharpen their minions!

Although a considerable amount of beast tide broke out in the three major wizarding organizations, compared to the central part of the mainland, it was nothing compared to the big witch, and it was several orders of magnitude worse.

According to the information from some wizard families who risked their lives to investigate, the scale of the outbreak of the black forest demon tide is even greater than in the past, and the number of monster lords gathered is also very alarming. Once they gather enough numbers and rush out of the black forest, the impact on the human society in the middle of the continent is likely to be devastating!

As soon as such information appeared, it immediately attracted the attention of all wizard families, and made them panic even more.

Blocking the beast horde is not as easy as blocking alien invaders.

There are only so many gaps in the barriers of the planes. As long as the entrances and exits are blocked, one by one will break in and kill one by one. Although the work is arduous, the result is fruitful. And the entire central part can be said bluntly, completely surrounded and besieged by the Black Forest. Wanting to determine the attack direction of the beast horde is simply a fool's dream, don't even think about it.

Of course, wizards can also use astrologers and prophets to gain insight into the movements of monsters. But for a long time, the monsters have also formed their own unique means of concealment and confusion through constant struggles with wizards.

According to legend, the monster lords of the Black Forest also specially cultivated a "crow king" with prophecy ability, which was used to reversely suppress the prophecy and astrology of wizards.

Therefore, since the wizards did not detect the movements of the monster lords in advance, it would be even more difficult to "behead" them after they gathered in groups.

Since the impact of the beast horde cannot be eliminated in advance, then the central part of the continent can only passively wait for the moment when the beast herd rushes out of the Black Forest. All the central regions, especially those bordering the Black Forest, were even more uneasy, and even panicked.

Those areas occupied by Tier 4 forces are not bad. At least one strong person is in charge, and they are still psychologically stable. And those areas that don't have Tier 4 forces and only have small and medium-sized force associations can only try to shrink the scope of defense, and only want to keep the core area of ​​their own family.

As a result, panicked refugee waves appeared in the human kingdom in the areas they abandoned.

No one wanted to stay there and wait to be devoured by the beasts. The civilians fled their homes with their families and flocked to relatively safer 'inland' areas.

All of a sudden, people in the central part of the mainland were panicked and panicked!

…………

Throne of Fire.

Greem, with his body covered in red alder berries, was soaked in a huge wooden barrel taller than his head, which was filled with a foul-smelling, pungent blue liquid.

There is no need for flame heating, Greem himself is a humanoid stove.

Greem's body was dark red and full of luster, and through the translucent skin, he could faintly see the red hot blood flowing slowly below. It is said to be blood, but in fact it is no different from tumbling and boiling magma.

Under the scorching of his burning domain, the blue liquid in the wooden barrel gradually boiled as the temperature rose. The sticky and dense blue potion roared and vibrated like a liquid monster, and from time to time, transparent bubbles bulged out one after another.

Greem's entire body had been soaked in the blue liquid, and his pores opened and closed suddenly, absorbing the strange medicine that evaporated from the blue liquid, and releasing the energy toxins and life ailments accumulated in his body.

After soaking for 5 hours, Greem crawled out of the blue liquid with great difficulty until the blue liquid had completely turned into black water.

However, what is surprising is that Greem's smooth and smooth lines, dark red skin and firm body like black jade are not stained with water stains or filth after being drilled out of such a sticky and thick liquid medicine.

When he stood silently in the room, there was no doubt that a male body full of evil charms, strange and powerful!

"Chip, check yourself!"

"Drip, the mission has been accepted...the self-test begins..."

With a slight mechanical sound, a cascade of dense information flows down from the top of the retina and accumulates under the horizon, forming a three-dimensional human body model.

On the side of the model, Greem's current body information was listed in a neat manner.

"Grimm, male, Tier 4 semi-regular wizard (fire specialization), star beast bloodline (97%), chaotic physique (extraordinary magic resistance), regular heart (fire law 89%), basic body data: strength 21 constitution 15+2 agility 16 spirit 46+5, blood talent: energy black hole, fire rule (inextinguishable flame)..."

Looking at the current data, Greem couldn't help shaking his head and sighing.

Compared to before, his strength dropped by 6 points, his constitution dropped by 16 points, and his agility dropped by 3 points...

Although he won a complete victory in the battle in the Gravel Canyon, defeating Monash Gaia, the patriarch of the Golden Clan, and Servoris, the superpower of the association, but that battle was only a miserable victory in the final analysis.

The serious battle loss caused his physical fitness to decrease greatly, and his strength and agility also declined.

However, there are gains as well as losses. The consecutive battles also increased Greem's mental strength by 2 points, from 44 points to 46 points. Although the difference was only 2 points, it also benefited him a lot, and his mental state was unprecedentedly good.

Now he has officially become a fourth-level senior, and he has jumped up a small level again, and is one step closer to the real peak!

Under the double boost of the Vulcan Orb and the Book of Darkness, any increase in his body's power is reflected in a surge of several times, ten times in combat power. And with the tempering of these few battles, he also vaguely realized his future development direction.

The analysis of the bloodline of the star beast has reached 97%, and he can really have his own bloodline transformation ability in just one step. As for the chaotic physique, it is only an external racial characteristic of the star beast bloodline, and it is not yet one of his individual abilities.

As for the reason why the blood of the star beast can be unlocked to the current state, it is entirely related to the fish-shaped star beast that Mary sent back a few days ago.

Greem soaked himself in the liquid medicine formed by star beast blood and special witch medicine every day, and used the way of body refining wizard medicine to temper his body. As expected, his physique recovered by 1 point. And the biggest effect is this body's understanding and fusion of the blood of the star beast.

In the past, Greem relied entirely on the ability of flame witchcraft in battles, and the blood of the star beasts hardly exerted its due power. The reason for this is that he didn't find the right route and way to grow the blood.

And on the road of blood, he is just a rookie who has just started!

It is said that he has the blood of a star beast, except for the two trivial racial abilities of chaotic physique and energy black hole, he does not even show the most basic blood characteristics.

How could this match his current Tier 4 senior status!

However, the remains of the extraterrestrial beast that Mary accidentally sent allowed Greem to find a way to improve his bloodline.

Devour... Devour... Devour...

The most typical feature of star beasts is to devour continuously, devouring higher creatures, devouring intelligent life, devouring a large number of souls, devouring the origin of the plane...

These things are the source of growth and evolution of star beasts, and also the source of their strength.

Since Greem chose the star beast bloodline for himself, he could only develop and strengthen his own bloodline following the ancient growth methods of the star beasts.

However, as an intelligent life with principles and a bottom line, devouring other intelligent races will undoubtedly bring serious psychological shadows to Greem. Therefore, he chose to devour other star beasts without hesitation.

The star beasts looked strange, like monsters among monsters. Greem didn't have any psychological burden to devour them.

Of course, what Greem really devoured was not the flesh and blood of the star beasts, but the unique and strange genes in their bodies. Using the powerful functions of the chip, Greem can strip the beneficial gene fragments from the bodies of different star beasts, and then integrate them into itself by means of genetic puzzles.

However, with his current situation, I am afraid that only those star beasts of level 4 or above can bring him corresponding benefits. And none of these guys are good at it, and they are all terrifying monsters who slaughter a plane at every turn in the outside world.

Therefore, Greem really needs to spend a lot of effort to feed on them!
