Chapter 0145: Proud Little Loli
Like the last calm before a super storm, the atmosphere in the Swamp Tower seemed quite strange.
In a small wizard family resource point, all wizard apprentices added up to only 49 people, and 3 of them were junior apprentices who had just learned meditation.
Among such a group of apprentices with relatively low overall strength, 4 famous quasi-witches suddenly appeared out of thin air. And any of these 4 quasi-witches would probably be considered outstanding in the group of quasi-witches. Such a weird situation would make people scream weird in any place!
After all, any quasi-witch needs to consume a lot of resources to appear, and to become a wizard, they need a little bit of luck in addition to a lot of resources. With the current situation of the Swamp Tower, it is a fluke to be able to support a quasi-witch, not to mention four at once.
Perhaps it is precisely because of the existence of these four quasi-witches that the Salubo family attaches increasing importance to the magic swamp. In addition to the mission hall, the Kroot Mystic Hut, Lil's Business, Difensi Gourmet Association, Fenrir's Pet Shop... these shops and businesses that are specifically opened for wizard apprentices have also gradually entered the Swamp Tower.
Among them, the Goblin Shop opened by the Goblin Kirby has also been booming.
What is different is that from time to time, one or two things that can be called fine products will appear in Kirby's Goblin Shop, either magic gems, or witchcraft materials, or witchcraft equipment. In short, no matter which one, it will trigger a frenzy of scramble among many middle and high-level apprentices.
As for the unremarkable Goblin Kirby, he also has a lofty status among the apprentices of the tower that outsiders can hardly reach. If nothing else, just because of the three quasi-wizards standing behind it, no one in the Swamp Tower dared to provoke it.
Since Alice became a member of the tower, she originally thought that she would be driven by Grimm to do this and that every day. Who knew that since that day, she never saw this nominal "master" again. To her surprise, Grimm was a man who never left his house. He would hide in his house and read books, or tinker with something in the alchemy laboratory.
His three meals a day were delivered to his house by Kirby, the goblin, and he never showed up on weekdays. Although this made Alice less embarrassed to meet Kirby, it also made her feel a little angry at being ignored.
For a few days, Alice interrogated Kirby again and again, and dug out all of Grimm's deeds from his rise to the present. In addition, she also used her identity as a quasi-witch to learn about Grimm's early deeds from several apprentices in the tower.
It can be said that the more she understood, the more confused Alice was!
If a person's life has its own fate, then Mary's life trajectory is clear at a glance.
Mary's apprenticeship that is really worth mentioning all started with that witchcraft experiment. Before becoming a vampire, her life was unremarkable. After becoming a vampire, she began to soar, directly jumping from the primary level to the advanced level, and then she became a quasi-witch.
So, it was the weird witchcraft experiment led by Anderson wizard that changed Mary's life!
From these messages, Alice can clearly see the development of Mary, and can also estimate the height of her life that she may reach based on her actions. Everything is so clear and intuitive!
But such a set of theories is a bit unreasonable when applied to Grimm!
The turning point of Grimm's change is almost the same as Mary's. He seemed to have suddenly possessed some magical power overnight. This often made Alice wonder if the wizard Anderson did something to Grimm while doing the experiment on Mary? Otherwise, his changes in the latter period are simply too amazing!
During the three-month mission period, he grew from a primary apprentice to a senior apprentice, and also crossed the intermediate apprentice stage with mediocre strength. And his winning trick is the elemental puppet that is always invincible. As for himself, he is obviously taking the route of an elemental wizard.
Alice still remembers the elemental puppets in Grimm's hands. Her two tragic failures were all due to these hateful elemental puppets!
There are sufficient numbers, many types, and powerful and targeted!
This is Alice's personal evaluation of these elemental puppets.
It stands to reason that if such elemental puppets are operated in the way of elemental life summoning, not only special witchcraft rituals are required, but also the summoner needs to bear a huge mental burden. It is impossible to be as easy as Grimm.
Alice also noticed that every time Grimm summoned an elemental puppet, he needed an elemental crystal core as a witchcraft material, and the runes on the crystal core were everywhere, and it looked like it had been deeply transformed. Therefore, she dared to conclude that the deep secret that made Grimm so powerful must be hidden in these crystal cores.
For this reason, she deliberately wanted to get close to Grimm and get more answers from him to uncover these mysteries. Unfortunately, Grimm lived in a deep house and rarely left the house, which made her, a maid in name only, completely useless.
So, after seven days of forbearance, Alice snatched the plate from Kirby the Goblin and stood at the door of Grimm's residence instead. The only person who could freely enter and exit Grimm's residence was the annoying Mary. Even Kirby the Goblin needed Grimm's permission to enter every time he delivered food.
It didn't take long for Grimm to finally remove the protection on the door after sensing Alice's mental fluctuations.
Reaching out and pushing open the door, Alice strode in with a tray.
The room was still as simple as before.
Compared with the last time, it was even more messy!
It was clearly daytime, but the lighting crystal on the wooden table still emitted a bright but not dazzling soft light. This made Alice wonder if the other party had been busy from last night until now and had not rested at all?
The ground was full of discarded parchments, some rolled together, some spread out, and some kneaded into a ball... Each one was depicted with dense and extremely complicated rune lines and mysterious witch formations. Alice had no research on witch formations, so she felt a headache when she saw this highly professional mysterious knowledge.
Standing on tiptoe, carefully avoiding the debris thrown all over the floor, Alice came to the wooden table.
The wooden table was also so messy, with witchcraft books spread out everywhere, one on top of another, almost covering most of the tabletop. And Grimm was lying on his stomach in front of the table, silently painting something on a piece of parchment.
But it was obvious that his progress was not smooth.
Halfway through the painting, he raised the parchment and tried to examine it, and soon shook his head and cursed in a low voice, crumpled the parchment and threw it behind him.
Alice turned her head to avoid the oncoming paper ball, and angrily put the plate heavily on the wooden table. Due to her "carelessness", the pile of books finally collapsed.
Uh... what's going on?
Grimm raised his head and looked around in confusion, but his angry eyes met Alice's provocative eyes.
"Huh? When did you come?" Grimm rubbed his temples and felt a slight pain in his head.
Since his own strength increased greatly, Grimm has discovered the benefits of a high physique.
After three consecutive days and three nights of sleeplessness, if it were in the past, he would have been exhausted. But now, except for some fatigue caused by excessive mental exhaustion, his body is still as strong and energetic as it was three days ago.
"I came here today to ask, how are you going to accommodate me? Just let me wander around in this dirty and dilapidated place day after day like now? The witchcraft facilities here are simply too old and backward. Compared with the outside, this is simply a wild desert in the wizarding world!" Alice put her hands on her waist and complained angrily.
It can be seen that she has had enough of the Swamp Tower these days.
There are no advanced witchcraft potions, no slightly normal food and beverages, no advanced materials needed for witchcraft experiments, and the simple personal residence is almost like a sheepfold... In such a backward and dilapidated place, Alice can't imagine how Grimm and his friends survived!
If it weren't for the recent business or organization that brought some changes to the Swamp Tower, Alice felt that she would have rotted in this dark and humid magic swamp.
Facing a hardworking "subordinate" who volunteered, Grimm showed a gratified smile on his face, and took a piece of white bread from the plate and stuffed it into Alice's hand, smiling: "If you want to find something to do, then let me see your skills first. Can you throw this thing on Kirby's head?"
As soon as the words fell, the white bread in Alice's hand disappeared.
She patted the bread crumbs in her hand and stared at Grimm with disdain, as if you were coming.
Grimm's mouth opened slightly in surprise.
But he quickly adjusted his mentality and picked up another piece of bread and stuffed it into Alice's hand, but this time he stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers, and actually opened all the protections of this magic residence.
Alice curled her lips in disdain, grabbed the bread with both hands and rubbed it slightly, and after a strange space fluctuation, the bread disappeared again.
Grimm's expression became more and more solemn.
After stuffing the last piece of bread on the plate to Alice, Grimm not only activated all the protections of the magic residence, but also concentrated his mind and suddenly opened a light red barrier that was enough to cover the entire room.
You know, at this moment, Alice is in up to four layers of elemental protection or witchcraft barriers. If she still...
Unfortunately, Grimm's brain has not yet finished turning, Alice shook her hand, and a small void black hole appeared in front of her. Then she quickly reached into it with the hand holding the bread, and when she pulled it out, her hand was empty.
And the void black hole also disappeared quickly! chapter;
