Age of Adepts

Until Hegel left for a long time, Greem still stood there thinking silently.

Driven by the Cinderweb Spider Mother, all the busy flame creatures avoided where Greem was, not daring to disturb him in the slightest.

After a long while, Greem broke free from his deep thoughts and returned to his normal state again.

Very unexpected, but not so unexpected, the arrival of the other party seems to be reasonable.

It's just that it's a bit unexpected to come so early!

Want to be the Flame King? The way is actually very simple... It is enough to pull a large plane into the Fire Elemental Plane and let it merge into a part of the Fire Elemental Plane!

But Greem clearly knows the true value of a large plane...

The world of wizards is a large plane. Although the qualifications are older and the level of power is higher, the level of the plane is an undisputed large plane...

The arcane empire that Greem once invaded and witnessed its destruction is also a large plane. That huge size almost gave birth to a huge arcane empire that can rival the civilization of wizards!

Even in the multiverse where there are as many material planes as there are stars, there are only a handful of large planes, and each of them is the core of the war that those cosmic powers covet and compete for.

With Greem's current power, it is not a big problem to invade a small plane. But it became extremely difficult to invade the middle plane, and many times it would end in failure.

Just like the Lance plane, the kingdom of giant dragons that has already fallen into the hands of the Crimson family, the wizards are still in the midst of difficult development and gaps. Once you offend those Tier 4 dragon lords, even the steel city with astonishing defense will be pressed under the body of the dragons and constantly rubbed.

Not to mention the large planes, it was just such a medium plane that was still being developed, which allowed the Crimson family to earn a lot of money and their pockets bulging. So the benefits that can be obtained by ruling a large plane alone... that is something that makes people jealous just thinking about it!

And the king who wants to become the fire element plane is recognized by the plane consciousness here. The most direct and easiest way is to bring a large-scale plane and let it be assimilated by the fire element plane...

This simple and rude way made Greem speechless!

That's a good thing, isn't it good to be the king of the world directly? Why bother to exchange a large plane for the status of the king of the fire elemental plane?

But if you think about it carefully, the world king of a large plane may not be as powerful and powerful as a flame king of the fire elemental plane. And this point is determined by the level of the plane and the upper limit of strength of both parties.

The four elemental worlds of earth, fire, water, and wind are combined into a super-giant plane, which is two levels higher than the large plane. On the other hand, the fire elemental plane is also a super-large plane, which is one level higher than the large-scale plane.

Therefore, it is understandable that the identity of the flame king is more noble!

However, no matter how noble the Flame King's status was, Greem still didn't think it was worth it if he exchanged a large plane he controlled. However, if it is not your own large plane, it may be worth considering sacrificing it to the Fire Elemental Plane.

Of course, that Hegel traveled all the way to the Altar of Molten Fire, not just to tell Greem the way to become the Flame King, but to set a boundary with him.

King Zetas' domain is 7,000 miles northeast of the Altar of Molten Fire.

According to the agreement between Greem and Hegel, before he became a king, the scope of his direct territory could not exceed thousands of miles around the Molten Fire Altar, and he could not have more than three Tier 4 subordinates. Once the rules are violated, the surrounding flame kings have the right to expel them from the Fire Elemental Plane at any time.

Of course, the reason for such an agreement is most likely the regulations formulated by the flame kings out of consideration for protecting the native creatures of the fire elemental plane. Only in this way can we avoid the wanton hunting and plundering of those wild high-level flame lords by foreign powerhouses.

But in this way, Greem's desire to make a big splash in the Fire Elemental Plane was somewhat shattered. On the contrary, he has to plan carefully and carefully plan the quota allocation of these three fourth-tier subordinates.

After thinking for a while, Greem put all these troubles behind him, and concentrated on studying the strange ghost-like movement of that Hegel.

He had a feeling that the opponent's way of moving did not use any props or spells, but a purely rule-based power application technique. This is also the future development direction that Greem has been unable to enter.

Greem stood there quietly, the chip in his mind playing back the stored Hegel image over and over again. The playback speed is even slower to a certain extreme, almost decomposing every tiny movement of him into countless tiny displacement rubbings, and then studying it frame by frame...

In addition, it also contains various subtle changes in the energy in Hegel's body that the chip sees through.

When the two were combined, Greem finally discovered some clues.

rule……

As a rule wizard, the so-called source of power must always fall above the rules!

When the chip slowed down every movement of that Hegel to the extreme, Greem finally saw clearly how the power of rules in his body was coupled with the laws of the outside world, thus integrating his whole body The whole process of breaking out of the plane system and then breaking free at a specific position.

Use the plane rule system as a bridge to carry out short-distance transmission...

This kind of teleportation method can ignore any magic shield or spell barrier, and it can also ignore obstacles such as walls, ground, trees, rocks, etc. As long as the laws of the plane extend to the place, you can freely come and go as you like...

The only thing that can stop this kind of teleportation is the law barrier or rule protection!

But how many people in the plane can have such high-end protection?

If the wizard's tower supports all the protection and isolates all internal and external connections, it is possible to block the penetration of rules. But this kind of closed state is also extremely energy-consuming for Wuta. It is no problem to last for ten days and half a month, but the energy pool will always be exhausted after a long time.

At that time, what can be relied on to stop the penetration of such rules?

The more he analyzed and thought about it, the more powerful Greem felt that this technique of using rules became stronger. If you can use it flexibly in actual combat, then your enemies will be in bad luck!

"Chip, immediately establish a new research topic, fully deduce the high-level application of the flame rule, and the coupling compatibility between the flame rule and the plane rule..."

"Drip, the task has been established... The deduction task model needs to collect relevant rule information... The task has been refined and decomposed, and the subject needs to complete the correlation rule test before proceeding to the next step..."

swipe...

The light screen projected by the chip in Greem's mind was immediately overwhelmed by the massive transportation data. Numerous witchcraft formulas and calculation data rolled down from the top of the screen like an avalanche, piled up at the bottom of the screen, and piled up higher and higher, tending to drown the entire screen.

"Chip, you don't need to show these intermediate processes in the future, just show me the final result!"

"Drip, the order has been accepted..."

The next moment, the entire light screen was instantly cleared, leaving only three prerequisites glowing green.

"1. Regularized body (78% completed)..."

"Second, condense the flame will (the current progress is 0%)..."

"3. Complete the associated coupling rule fusion experiment (unexpanded)..."

Greem glanced slowly over the three prerequisites, thinking silently.

Regularizing the body, this is what he has been doing since he became a level 5 wizard. It's just that the regular energy in the Vulcan Orb has been used to radiate the body before, allowing it to adapt to the intensity of the flame rules.

But now, it is simply required to completely regularize the whole body, so as to achieve the point where it is completely integrated with the rule level!

After completing the first step, Greem already has the foundation to integrate into the rule system. But the Flame Will in the second step is also essential. Otherwise, without the control of the flame will, it is easy to integrate, but how to separate it becomes a problem.

After all, Greem just wanted to borrow the rule system, rather than giving everything he had to the other party. If there is no self-will, then the so-called integration into the rules is more like being swallowed by the rules.

Therefore, the most important thing is to condense the flame will that transcends the rules!

It's just that how to condense the will is also an extremely illusory problem. If Greem wanted to start researching, he would probably have to visit those veteran powerhouses from all sides or the old wizards of this faction.

There is no rush for such things, so I can only take one step at a time, and slowly explore.

Anyway, with the 10,000-year lifespan of a fifth-level great wizard, there is still a lot of time for him to squander at will.

As for the third item, it is possible to start some related experiments in advance.

However, if the regularized body is not completed, it would be too risky to conduct such an experiment rashly. Therefore, it seems that the matter of regularizing the body has to be paid close attention to.

And just as Greem was about to return to the Giant Rock Castle after dealing with some affairs on the Fire Elemental Plane, Fenbrain Thok received an interesting message.

The message was sent from inside the wizarding world plane, and the content of the message was very simple, just one sentence.

"The demigod lich Congnas has returned to the corpse plane, and it is said that he is attacking the fifth level..."

To be honest, Greem was not surprised to receive this news.

In terms of aptitude and strength, the demigod Lich Congnas is not inferior to him in all aspects. Especially after obtaining the Box of Severe Winter, its basic strength has improved by leaps and bounds, and it is improving in leaps and bounds.

It took so long to prepare for promotion, not because of its poor aptitude, but because of the particularity of creatures like liches!

Liches are undead, a typical undead creature.

They don't have flesh and blood in their bodies, and they don't have veins and veins, so they don't have the life energy to nourish the soul. Under such circumstances, their advancement is almost entirely achieved by the leap of the soul.

Soul transition may not be the most difficult thing, but remodeling the Lich's phylactery so that it can accommodate new souls... This is the most difficult part for Liches to advance.

And once the promotion fails, if the Lich's phylactery is endangered, even if it was a terrifying demigod lich standing proudly at the pinnacle of the plane one moment, it may be wiped out in the next moment, and the soul will not exist.

Therefore, it is several times more difficult and troublesome for a lich to advance than a human wizard.

Unless they have absolute certainty, they dare not try it lightly!
