Age of Adepts

Blood replacement cannot be done overnight, and the whole process may take several months.

The drop of liquid stored in the blue crystal is Greem's use of the prepared source-stealing worm to swallow the body of the strange star beast, and then extract the complete blood power from the source-stealing worm, and then go through a series of tempering and Purification, just obtained such a drop of 'blood'.

Most of the star beasts have a chaotic physique, and what they absorb is also the kind of violent magical energy that has not been purified or filtered, so they are completely different from plane creatures in every aspect.

Inside Greem's chest, the shattered blue crystal was already wrapped in a cavity formed by flesh and muscle. At this moment, wisps of blue-black mist were evaporating from the drop of liquid, and then absorbed by the fine whiskers tightly wrapped around the crystals.

This slow-release mist gradually spread to every corner of Greem's body along with the blood flow. Everywhere he went, there would be some subtle and strange energy exchanges with the flesh, muscles, bones, veins, and organs there.

Some mysterious energy penetrated into Greem's flesh and blood organs, which caused some unpredictable changes. The process of this change is not as calm as Greem's surface shows.

Greem was lying on his back on the floor, a look of pain flashed across his young face from time to time, and a certain part of his body would suddenly twitch and convulse from time to time.

However, no matter how intense the pain in the body was, Greem would not forcibly interrupt the process, but just silently controlled the progress of blood replacement by relying on the chip's small and fine perception ability.

And in the back of his mind, a tiny light screen was projecting a blood-red number.

"...21%...22%...23%..."

Sometimes the numbers on the screen remain motionless for several days, and sometimes they change rapidly within three to five minutes. Every change of it means that Greem's body is undergoing earth-shaking changes, and these changes are usually accompanied by unforgettable pain.

This can be seen from Greem's sometimes sober and sometimes drowsy state of mind!

During the period of Greem's retreat, the Crimson Clan also went into a dormant state.

Most of the affairs in the Ailuoweisi area have been delegated to the nobles of the Crimson Dynasty, and the wizards of the Crimson Family have returned to the family headquarters except for continuing to garrison resource points in various places. Show up.

Not only the members of the Crimson family are eagerly awaiting the birth of a new fourth-level wizard, but even the entire Sandi Tower Forest has countless families or organizational forces silently waiting for the final result.

Those wizards or organizations who have offended or attacked the Crimson Family in the past are like ants on a hot pot, feeling very irritable but helpless. Once that Greem really becomes a fourth-level wizard, and even without the Crimson Clan doing anything, those snobs who want to make a fuss about it will rush forward and exchange their heads for a small promise from the Crimson Clan .

At that time, there will be no place for them in the entire central part of the continent!

Although every region of the wizarding world has the laws and regulations of 'Strictly Prohibiting Internal Killing', those things obviously can only restrain middle and low-level wizards. For a fourth-level wizard who has already stood at the pinnacle of the wizarding world, any laws and regulations are invalid. Only Tier 4 or a strong combat power equivalent to Tier 4 can make these Tier 4 wizards a little bit scrupulous.

But when they were facing Greem, which old guy from the association would admit to attacking the association's "popular fried chicken" for a little profit!

It can be said bluntly that Greem at this moment is simply the heart and soul of all fourth-level wizards in the association. It hurts so much that it hurts, so why would she go to trouble him at this time.

On the contrary, in order to prevent some short-sighted guys from disturbing that Greem's advancement, the association even secretly dispatched two elite wizard troops to station at the border of the Elovis region. On the one hand, they are protecting Greem, but on the other hand, they also imply surveillance and control.

On the second day of Greem's retreat, the senior members of the Crimson family, represented by Gargamel and Wen Lier, secretly came to Kirslinburg and met with Vice President Milva.

The purpose of their trip is also very simple, just two words, 'blackmail'!

In fact, it can't be called extortion, after all, the association planned Greem first.

If Greem didn't know what was going on, the association could use the terms of the contract to force Greem to accept that damned terrible mission after he reached the 4th level. At that time, the incident happened suddenly, and Greem had no choice but to accept the reality and embark on the road to the plane of death.

In this way, the association can satisfactorily resolve this matter at the minimum cost!

It's a pity that Greem now knows the whole story.

So at this moment, the association can no longer pretend to be deaf and dumb, hoping that the other party will swallow this bitter fruit by force, and bear all the dangers and losses on itself.

If the association really wanted to annoy Greem, he would stall for a while and refuse to advance. At that time, although he would be severely punished by the association, the association could only choose one more from the existing fourteen fourth-level wizards.

After all, the Sandi Tower Forest Association is not like the three major wizarding forces, which has strict internal discipline and strong binding force, but is just a loose wizarding alliance that does not belong to each other. Once you really want to recommend one of them to 'death', I am afraid that it will fall apart in a matter of minutes and may withdraw on a large scale.

And this is the capital Gargamel and Wen Lier came to bargain with the association.

I want the horse to run, but I don't want the horse to eat grass. Where can I find such a good thing!

Following Greem's orders and instructions, Gargamel showed his ability to mess around, the lion opened his mouth wide, and made one after another outrageous demands in front of the Milva vice president, asking for resources, You want territories, people, treasures, and knowledge...

Almost everything Gargamel could think of, he made a long list, filled in the back with a big number, and then argued hard with the other party.

Tier 4 wizard? what is that? Does it have anything to do with my request?

It has to be said that Gargamel, who is dedicated to his duties, really deserves to be the 'Crimson Butler'. For a mere 'little' resource, he dared to jump and curse in front of a furious Tier 4 wizard.

And the Lorien wizard in the middle has one head and two big ones. After appeasing this one, he will appease the other one. It was hard to suppress the two fire heads, but when a new topic was brought up, the two fire heads exploded again.

A 2nd-level wizard and a 4th-level wizard quarreled with a blushing and thick neck, and then a 3rd-level wizard next to them tried to persuade them to fight...Wen Lier, who was standing next to her, was twitching all the muscles on her face, and it was very hard to hold back her smile. Many times, she felt in a trance that the scene in front of her was so ridiculous, but after thinking about it, she felt that it was reasonable!

After knowing all the inside information, Wen Lier also knew very well that the Vice President Mirva looked furious on the surface, but he was actually very happy in his heart.

After all, it is much better for the association to lose some resources than to fall apart because of a dangerous quota!

Therefore, no matter how fierce and unbearable Gargamel's troubles are, he is only angry, angry, angry...

Besides, with the strength of a fourth-level wizard of Milva, if he is really angry, how can a third-level subordinate be able to persuade him? I'm afraid that if a witchcraft is thrown over, the world will be quiet, and how can he tolerate a second-order like an ant being so arrogant and domineering in front of him.

His anger is just a statement!

I'm just warning Gargamel, although the Association is at fault in this matter, don't go too far on your side. It's just that what is too much and what is not too much, this boundary still needs to be tested by a 'rogue' like Gargamel.

In the case that both parties are unwilling to tear their faces apart, the so-called bargaining is actually more like a farce!

After a hoarse and protracted 'heated discussion', the two parties finally reached a basic agreement on a series of resources, items and knowledge lists.

When the parched Gargamel and Wen Lier, accompanied by Laurian, went to the association's treasury to 'carry' the supplies, the anger on the face of Vice President Milwa who was left alone in the room also subsided little by little. .

"They are quite open this time, a little too greedy!" Milva said coldly, not knowing who he was talking to.

"It's good to be greedy, it's wonderful to be greedy... If they don't be greedy, I'm afraid the association will be in big trouble this time!" President Fried's projection came out from behind Milwa without a sound.

"The loss this time is not a little bit, even resources and materials, they have a big appetite!" Milva still felt a little bitter.

"Can those resources and materials be worth the value of a Tier 4?" President Fried asked with a smile.

Milva was silent.

Finally, the little unhappiness just now passed away quickly.

Milva gritted his teeth secretly, thinking that those things were money for that Greem's life!

…………

The infusion of a large number of resources, materials, treasures and knowledge has also made the foundation of the Crimson family stronger and stronger.

Most of the crimson wizards have no way to know the crisis faced by the upper echelon of the family, they only know to be immersed in the joy of the family's "bundle harvest".

The Patriarch is about to become Tier 4. If these family members are left too far behind, how can they follow in the footsteps of the Patriarch. Therefore, without the agitation and momentum from the upper echelons, there was a frenzy of efforts to improve and advance among the crimson wizards.

With the abundant family resources, those family wizards with outstanding potential and talents also received a lot of resources. Therefore, there are countless guys who have improved one after another.

It's just that most of these guys who have improved are small-level upgrades, and the number of real 1-to-2, or 2-to-3 is still extremely rare.

And among the hard-working figures of many wizards, a lonely and down-and-out guy is particularly eye-catching!
