Chapter 0165 In the woods
Grimm walked slowly into the jungle.
Although he was weak now, he had the foundation of a wizard after all. Even with his bare hands, he could not be hurt by ordinary creatures. Moreover, he had a vague feeling just now that the magic puppets he had refined might not be affected by the law mutation, so he was eager to find a secret place to verify it.
The jungle was full of creeping vines and low bushes, with half-green and half-red berries swaying on the branches, and the wind blowing in was full of the fragrance of green grass and moist water vapor.
It was half a mile away from the camp. Looking back, the dense tall ancient trees covered the sky and the sun. Whatever he did here would not be noticed by people in the distance.
Grimm took out an earth crystal core from his storage belt and threw it on the soil. As the misty earth elements began to gather rapidly, the dark and shiny soil began to bulge and deform continuously, and in a few seconds, it formed a human-like earth magic puppet.
Since the soil here was not screened before shaping, countless broken branches, rotten leaves, and earthworms and insects crawling in panic can be seen on the body of the mud demon puppet!
Grimm frowned.
This is a mud demon puppet with the strength of a junior apprentice. Although it is not as high-level as the demon crocodile hunter, it should not be so weak!
According to his test in the wizard world, such a first-level mud demon puppet should be up to 2 meters in size and weigh 600 to 700 pounds. But now it seems that this mud demon puppet is only 1.5 meters at best, and its weight is nearly 1/3 less.
It seems that the summoning of the demon puppet is not affected by the variation of the law, but the scarcity of magic elements here has reduced the strength of the demon puppet and made it difficult to reach the best level. This tiny flaw did not frustrate Grimm. Because for this plane war, his storage belt is densely packed with various types of demon puppet crystal cores, roughly counting two or three hundred.
This is the result of his hard work for half a year. Grimm has always believed that if he cannot crush the enemy in terms of quality, he can overwhelm the enemy with terrifying numbers!
Grimm closed his eyes and sensed the mental power consumption of summoning mud puppets. With his current mental power, it is obviously enough to support 100 mud puppets to step onto the battlefield. In the following time, Grimm repeatedly verified the remaining types of puppets, including water man, rock python, wind breath monster, lightning giant, flame dog, flame lord...
Grimm sensed the mental power consumed by each of them in detail, and then memorized them one by one in his mind.
Since he was promoted to a wizard, his sudden increase in mental power has also made the previously envisioned magic puppet army vaguely feasible. With Grimm's current mental power, he can probably support 100 primary magic puppets (mud magic puppets, flame dogs, wind breath monsters), or 25 advanced magic puppets (water man, magic crocodile hunter, rock python), or 10 quasi-witch-level magic puppets (lightning giant, water spirit, lava dog), or 5 wizard-level magic puppets (flame lord).
However, there is still only one Fire Lord among the wizard-level magic puppets at present, so the scarcity of high-level magic puppets can only make Grimm focus on the group fighting strategy of low-level magic puppets!
Just after Grimm checked various types of magic puppets in turn, the chip suddenly issued a sharp alarm.
"Ding, a strange life substance is found, and it is spreading special mental fluctuations..."
Grimm turned around suddenly, and his black pupils as bright as morning stars passed through the nearly 100-meter gap in the forest, and his sight fell on a strange flying insect lying in the dense branches and leaves.
This is a finger-sized flying insect covered with black and shiny shells, lying on a thick branch, covering its insect body with wide leaves. If it weren't for the chip's reminder, Grimm would really have no way to find such a hidden "lurker" when his mental power was severely suppressed!
Bastard, it's the spy of the evil insect Entik.
Grimm frowned, and red light flashed in his eyes. The branches where the flying insects lived in the distance immediately billowed with smoke, and were instantly ignited by the gathered fire elements.
The flying insect knew it was exposed, and flapped its wings with a faint metallic luster and wanted to slip away, but unfortunately Grimm's second "Ignition" had already locked it. The law mutation of the other plane still affected Grimm's first witchcraft, forcing him to make up for the second one.
The sudden burst of flames instantly engulfed the flying insect, and it twisted its fat body and screamed in pain, making a sound similar to that of a human. It seems that the evil insect Entik attached a trace of mental power to the flying insect's eye line, and now it suffered a little at the hands of Grimm.
In a clearing in the forest 1 mile away from Grimm, Entik, who was covered in a black robe, stood there quietly, and a cold snort came from the shadow of his hood.
Like Mary, the evil insect Entik did not rely too much on elemental witchcraft due to his special physique, so he was not greatly affected by the law mutation. This gave him the idea of taking the opportunity to kill Grimm.
The main reason for not choosing Mary is that vampires are too difficult to deal with and are also difficult to kill. And Grimm is just an elemental wizard after all. Once his own strength drops seriously, it is more reliable to sneak attack and kill.
Unfortunately, the scenes of the flying insects peeping made the evil insect Entik feel cold to the bone. That damn Grimm actually has such a number of annoying magic puppets, which makes Entik irritable and uneasy.
It was his mental fluctuations that became restless that allowed the chip to detect the existence of the flying insects. As the flying insects were engulfed by the flames, Entik's spiritual world felt a faint pain.
Hmph, I'll let you live a few more days!
Entik cursed a few times, turned around and disappeared quickly.
Although he looked calm on the surface, he was actually very nervous.
That Grimm didn't seem to be much weaker, and even became more terrifying. Once he surrounded himself with his magic puppet army, and Mary, who moved like a ghost, although Entik was very confident in his strength after becoming a wizard, he was still not sure to fight against them!
So after cursing a few times, he ran away quickly.
After all, he was also worried that Grimm would suddenly change his mind and come to hunt him down.
…………
Mary was moving quickly in the woods.
The vampire bat she transformed into sometimes flew into the blue sky and looked down at the nearby mountains and forests; sometimes rushed into the dense forest, quickly flying through the green treetops, branches, vines and spider webs.
Wherever she passed, she startled many small animals in the forest and they hid in caves. Through the gaps between the dense and sparse branches and leaves, she peeked at the strange blood-red giant bat in fear.
Occasionally, she would break into the homes of those powerful monsters and provoke them to attack in groups. Unfortunately, in front of Mary's lightning speed, their clumsy and heavy bodies couldn't even eat dust.
Pterosaurs, griffins, rocs, four-armed apes, razor boars, saber-toothed elephants, ogres...
Along the way, Mary had to sigh that the richness of biological resources in this plane had far exceeded her imagination. The density of biological clusters was even more amazing!
However, in contrast, the strength of these creatures was much weaker than that of the wizard world. Monsters were rarely seen in the wild jungle!
The scarcity of magical creatures may be a great thing for ordinary humans! In this way, human gathering points will be safer and there will be fewer unnecessary sacrifices. But for those who possess extraordinary powers, this is a great bad thing! This makes them have fewer opportunities to hone themselves and learn from nature.
Why are wizards so powerful? It is because the wizard world has equally powerful monsters! If you want to protect the peace of the human world and allow humans to survive, then wizards must become stronger and smarter than monsters!
Therefore, the strength of wizards is the natural result of thousands of years of struggle with bloody and cruel monsters, and it is definitely not caused by the rise of one or two genius wizards!
If this plane lacks powerful monsters or monsters, then the primitive natives here will naturally not be able to produce too powerful individuals. This is the truth of plane development that all wizards believe in!
Why are all wizards beyond level 4 in the wizard world forced to leave? It is to maintain a situation in the wizard world where the overall strength of wizards is equal to that of monsters, and then artificially create a cruel and harsh living environment to motivate and hone more qualified wizards.
This truth is the conclusion drawn by Grimm after synthesizing the development trends of several regions, so Mary naturally knew it. But she never cared about such bullshit theories. The only thing she cared about was whether there was any sweet blood food here that could impress her!
The giant bats that were charging recklessly finally attracted the attention of the overlord of this mountain forest. A rare three-headed chimera flew into the sky and swooped down at her at high speed.
Chimera is a powerful magical creature with a lion's head, a goat's body, and a snake's tail. Ordinary chimeras have only one head and can spit out a flame with extremely strong adhesion. Once a chimera grows three heads, it will have three different elemental attributes: fire, venom, and wind blades.
Such a monster can barely squeeze into the ranks of intermediate monsters in the wizard continent, but here, it is already an extremely powerful high-level monster.
Suddenly seeing a monster that can arouse her interest, Mary immediately became excited and agitated, teasing the three-headed chimera to quickly pass through the jungle. Her body is much thinner and slender, and can quickly insert between the almost impenetrable canopies of tall ancient trees. However, the Chimera, which is sturdy and has a wingspan of 12 meters, can hardly move as easily as she does.
So, with a series of crackling and breaking sounds of branches, the Chimera, like a bulldozer, rushed straight into the dense jungle and opened up a wide road.
In such a narrow space, the clumsy and sturdy Chimera is far less light and agile than the vampire bat, and can turn flexibly. Therefore, after chasing for a distance, seeing that there was no result, the angry three-headed Chimera rushed into the sky and madly flooded the area where the giant bat was with violent three-series spells.
