The Wizarding Age

The battle in the nightmare territory was just a war of thoughts.

The battle inside was fierce and violent, but outside was still calm and peaceful.

When Mary forcibly embraced and gained control of the nightmare castle Keslin, Grimm's consciousness was immediately repelled by a huge force and driven out of the nightmare territory.

Still in the secret room of the nightmare castle, Grimm and Mary opened their eyes one after another.

Grimm frowned, but Mary was beaming with joy.

"Success?" Grimm knew it was a bit redundant as soon as he asked.

There was no need to ask, no need to see Mary's smugness that was about to explode, just by the strange resonance between the other party's soul and the nightmare castle, the result could be known.

Yes, the moment she withdrew from the nightmare territory, Mary's soul was connected with the nightmare castle under her. As the blood-colored energy flowed, this strange creature with both alchemical life and flesh-and-blood life curled up under Mary's blood-colored authority, as docile and obedient as a puppy.

The force field suppression that had been lingering on Grimm and Mary all along also dissipated instantly.

Inside the castle, the powerful blood-colored energy replaced the past life energy and became the source of power for the Nightmare Castle to maintain its huge form and energy system.

"Give that energy orb back to Keslin? Otherwise, it can only limit its home advantage to the inside of the castle. With the energy orb, the nightmare territory can be expanded to at least a thousand meters away. At that time, Keslin's home court will be within 3 miles around the Nightmare Castle!" Mary asked impatiently.

Although the energy orb was on her, she still had to respect Grimm's opinion on how to use it.

"It's your pet, you decide!" Grimm smiled, and his words also indirectly agreed with Mary's opinion.

Mary happily took out the energy orb from her bosom, and a stream of blood-colored energy immediately lingered around her, turning into a red pillar with a groove on the top. As soon as Mary put the orb on, the red pillar immediately shrank into the floor.

A moment later, the blood color of the Nightmare Castle surged, and layers of energy force fields overflowed from the core area of ​​the castle. Every time they went to a place, they expelled elements and energy that did not belong to themselves. Almost in an instant, the layers of dense energy fields wrapped up the Nightmare Castle again, making it the home of the new life Keslin again.

Grimm estimated that after being controlled by Mary, Keslin had the strength of a 4th-level advanced level, and had not yet reached the level of forbidden life. And the Fried who was sacrificed by her blood also became a 4th-level dead soul bound by the Nightmare Castle, but his strength dropped to the 4th-level primary level.

"How is it, how does controlling Keslin help you?" Due to the existence of the energy field, even Grimm found it difficult to directly and clearly detect the detailed information of Keslin, and could only ask Mary vaguely.

"Nothing, just one more 4th-level senior subordinate!" Mary smiled like a flower, with a proud look on her face: "However, if the battlefield is placed in Keslin's home court, I also have the confidence to fight with you super strong men!"

That is, the power of the two combined can reach the peak of 4th level!

Unfortunately, the mobility of the nightmare castle incarnated by Keslin is too poor, so Mary can only act as a defensive super strong man. Although it is not perfect, Grimm still nodded with satisfaction.

This time, the foundation of the Crimson Family is really stable!

Before, Sanditalin had been bombarded by the appearance of Grimm, a pseudo-super strong man, and the waves have not stopped until now. In addition to Sanditalin, the conspiracy calculations in the surrounding areas, whether open or hidden, have also come like a tidal wave.

This time, the Crimson Family will strive forward no matter what.

If they can't make it through this hurdle, the Crimson Family will only fall apart under the ravages of the storm. As a 4th-level wizard, Grimm may be able to escape, but other members of the Crimson Family will find it difficult to continue to gain a foothold in the central part of the continent.

Now, Mary's strength has also improved by leaps and bounds because she has controlled Keslin. In some aspects, she can even compete with super strong people.

This is undoubtedly a stabilizing force for the Crimson Family, which is in the storm circle!

There is no need to fight, no need to bluff, just a little bit of the mouth will be revealed, and those ambitious people with ulterior motives will be scared away, and the enemies in the dark will be afraid to act rashly, and it will save the Crimson Family countless troubles.

It is precisely because of his thorough understanding of this problem that Grimm suddenly smiled.

"Then as a gift for you to get the Nightmare Castle, let's hold a banquet here! Anyway, there are quite a few family representatives who have come here these days, so we just happened to receive them all."

"Hmph, holding a banquet is fake, I think you want to scare those messengers! Okay, the time is set for tomorrow night, and I will give you a surprise then!" Mary snorted lightly, obviously seeing through Grimm's tricks.

The two smiled at each other, and their faces showed great expectations.

The second day.

After nightfall.

All the family messengers waiting here received a notice from the Crimson Family and began to come to this Keslin Castle one after another.

After a few days of getting along, everyone had a new understanding of this Keslin Castle.

Obviously, a blood sacrifice had just been held in the castle not long ago. Due to the terrifying number and quality of wizards involved, the entire castle was shrouded in lingering resentful souls and a pungent smell of blood.

But this time, when they rode various mounts to the castle, they immediately noticed a different atmosphere from before.

The resentful souls were swept away, and even the bloody smell became much lighter, turning into a faint mist similar to blood energy.

And the ones who greeted them at the gate of the castle were no one else, but the many vampires under the command of the Blood Queen. The men were elegant, the women were pretty, all dressed in gorgeous clothes, with elegant and noble postures, and the whole banquet was well organized and orderly.

In addition to many high-level vampires, the top leaders of the Crimson Family also gathered here.

Only those who showed up included the Red Dragon Witch Meryl, Mystique Emelia, Emerald Beauty Dragon Aretina, Insect Witch Bilis, Goblin Great Sage Kirby, Brainless Sok, Goblin Wizard Locke, Demonized Goblin Leader Gongga.

After so many years of tempering and settling down, most of these Crimson Elders who have followed Grimm for hundreds of years have reached the 3rd level. As for those who can't keep up with the Crimson, they are either gradually eliminated or have died of old age. In short, those people will never appear in such occasions again!

However, these are not surprising. What really makes the visitors feel uncertain is the waiters who shuttle back and forth in the banquet hall.

No envoy who can attend the Crimson Banquet is easy to deal with. At least he must be a 2nd level wizard.

Those big families may only send one main wizard as an envoy, and the level will not be lower than 3rd level. Most small and medium-sized families may only have one or two level 2 wizards in the whole family, so they can only be honest and rush here with the patriarch as an envoy.

As a mid-to-high-level wizard, he has naturally witnessed countless wizard banquets, but the Crimson Family is unique in using high-level spirits and dead souls as waiters.

In the banquet hall, the waitresses holding silver trays and shuttling among the crowd are not humans or vampires at all, but beautiful and charming human-shaped nightmares.

The nightmare, also known as the night demon, is a strange monster with wings and tails that looks charming and hot. Their greatest ability is to absorb the energy of intelligent life through dreams.

Therefore, in many witchcraft books, they are extracted from the strange monsters and the dead and classified as spiritual creatures. But no matter how they are divided, they are obviously not orthodox intelligent life, but a kind of extremely dangerous and terrible creatures.

However, the Crimson Family was able to tame the nightmares and let them serve many wizards, which fully demonstrated its profound foundation in this regard.

These nightmares are all terrible spirits of level 2. If they are placed in those small wizard families, they will be terrifying demons that can easily exterminate their families. But here, they are just humble servants and slaves, serving the wizards present wholeheartedly.

But when these nightmares shuttled through the crowd, those ordinary level 2 wizards had some signs of trembling and unstable spirits. They could only secretly bless themselves with some witchcraft protection, and then carefully stay away from these nightmares.

The level 2 wizards sighed only about these insignificant things, while those level 3 wizards felt deeper and more directly than them!

The best among the level 3 wizards are already qualified to conduct some research on laws. Although they cannot touch and control the laws, they can still use some witchcraft to simulate the effects of similar laws.

Therefore, when the Level 2 wizards were making a fuss about the nightmare maid, these Level 3 wizards were looking at the Keslin Castle in front of them calmly.

Weird, weird, strange

For some reason, unlike the feeling a few days ago, the Keslin Castle in front of them seemed to have undergone some strange changes. The faintly revealed aura seemed completely unfamiliar, making them a little unsure.

Was their perception wrong, or was there really something strange about this Keslin Castle?

However, just when they were feeling suspicious about this, the protagonist of today's banquet, Blood Queen Mary, appeared in front of everyone in a gorgeous red dress, stepping on the creaking stairs.

And when she appeared, the expressions on everyone's faces changed from suspicion to shock, and they could no longer hide it.

How is this possible?
