Chapter 0405: Witch Tower

Three major wizard forces...

Northern witches on the north coast, the Silver Alliance on the west coast, and the Wizard Association on the east coast!

They each have their own knowledge heritage and cultural traditions, and they show a high degree of monopoly and exclusion to the outside world. Fast updates and no ads.

When it comes to Northern witches, everyone recognizes that their characteristic is fierceness!

Especially fierce!

Without this fierce momentum, how could a group of witches open up a large territory in the North with nothing, and let the witch heritage last for tens of thousands of years without interruption?

It is this fierceness that they forced back the monsters in the Black Forest and competed with them for precious land inch by inch. Why do the people in the North believe in this group of witches so much? Because it was the Northern witches who opened their arms and blocked the invasion of the terrifying beast tide and terrible monsters with far more courage than the male wizards.

Witches are the real guardians of the North!

In contrast, the Silver Alliance is more like a ragtag army.

Its top leaders are not as good at fighting as the witches in the North, but they are good at control and technology monopoly. They have floating fortresses, teleportation magic arrays, puppet armies, large quantities of scrolls, potions, magic wands... These are all rare resources and daily consumables that wizards cannot do without.

Monopolizing these also earns them a huge amount of resources and magic crystals.

So many people regard the Silver Alliance as a super huge business organization, and extremely despise their wizard identity.

As for the Wizard Association on the East Coast, it is a completely orthodox large wizard organization.

Their biggest feature is the completeness and comprehensiveness of the knowledge system, and the full use of wizard talents.

In the central part of the continent, in the Sanditalin area, the conquest and development of the secondary planes outside the domain are carried out in the form of families. The manpower and resource consumption of the early plane wars are borne by a single family, while the development and resource recovery in the middle and late stages are the cornerstones for the family to continue moving forward.

But in the Wizard Association, the plane conquest is completely led by individual wizards.

There are many "explorers" in the Wizard Association. Their individual combat power may not be very strong, but they are extremely good at void exploration and plane search. They wander in the depths of the endless starry sky, exploring one dangerous area after another. Whenever they find an unoccupied secondary plane, they will list its plane coordinates for sale in the association.

And the powerful wizards in the association will bid in turn, and the highest bidder will win.

The wizards who have obtained the plane coordinates are responsible for recruiting a suitable wizard team, breaking the plane barrier through powerful means to establish a stable outpost camp in the secondary plane. Once the teleportation wizard array is built, the follow-up matters can basically be taken over by the Wizard Association!

And the subsequent conquests, occupations, and resource development will be handled by professional wizards of the Wizard Association. The wizards who successfully laid down the outpost camp only need to wait for the harvest of resources!

Therefore, the secondary planes occupied by the Wizard Association are maintained by the association, and many wizards are just hired and employed by it. In this way, some powerful wizards have also broken free from the cumbersome and complicated process of plane occupation, cleansing, and ruling.

Use war to usurp resources to continuously strengthen themselves, and then rely on strong strength to conquer more planes. This is a sustainable development model chosen by the Wizard Association for itself!

So considering the strength of the three wizard forces, the strongest is undoubtedly the Wizard Association, followed by the Silver Alliance, and the Northland witches are at the bottom.

However, if a wizard conflict occurs in a small area, judging from the combat power they show, the Northland witches are first, the Wizard Association is second, and the wizards of the Silver Alliance are the weakest!

This is the current power structure of the entire wizard world.

As for Sandi Tallin, which is located in the central part of the continent and occupies the largest population and land resources, it is nothing more than a loose wizard family alliance. On the surface, it seems to have the largest number of wizards, the largest population of people under its jurisdiction, and the most extensive land resources, but its strength is not even worth mentioning.

The only reason why it was not swallowed by the three major forces was that the three major forces were afraid of the consequences of their rash actions, and they were afraid that their rash actions would provoke the other two forces to join forces. Therefore, although the three forces were trying to expand their influence in the Sanditalin area, they were unable to make a breakthrough due to the extreme xenophobia of the local wizard families.

Although the old men of the Sanditalin Association fought fiercely for power, once they encountered signs of the three major forces intervening in the central region, they were very united. It is better to kill the wrong person than to let him go, and never let any wizard family in the Sanditalin area turn to one of the three major forces!

All the central families that were quietly infiltrated by the three major forces will be quietly defeated in a family war, without exception!

Anyway, there is a lot of time, so Grimm pulled Gargamel to chat.

Although he has a considerable understanding of the intelligence about the three major forces through books and actual contact. But chatting with Gargamel still benefited him a lot, and he learned a lot of well-known "secrets" from the side!

Of course, in his spare time, Grimm couldn't help wondering how the two Silver Alliance wizards would build a wizard tower. After all, in the Knight Plane, the Salubo family sent out more than 20 or 30 elite family members, and just barely built a model of a war wizard tower in a month.

The Silver Alliance sent only two tower-building wizards, which... This made Grimm feel incredible in every aspect. Moreover, the amount of stone, special metals and magic gems needed to build a wizard tower is also extremely terrifying. Can the two tower-building wizards carry them all with them?

Of course, in the area selected by Grimm, the volcanic rocks there can be used locally, which can save a lot of stone consumption. But even if the two wizards work non-stop for nine days, it is still difficult to complete such a difficult task!

The more I think about it, the more incredible it feels!

However, Grimm can guess that they must have brought a lot of special golems for tower building with them, only in this way can the problem of labor shortage be solved. But what about the etched rune array? If you want to make the wizard tower a wizard facility completely controlled by wizards, then I am afraid that every stone in the entire wizard tower must be etched with a rune array with completely different functions.

Solid runes, anti-magic runes, anti-prophecy runes... None of these things can be missing. Then outline the magic lines and energy nodes that spread throughout the tower, supplemented by the necessary rune magic arrays. This huge workload is simply overwhelming. Can it be completed by just one wizard?

Could it be that the Silver Alliance has developed some kind of golem construction that can automatically etch magic lines and rune magic arrays? It seems unreliable just to think about it!

However, while Grimm was guessing randomly, nine days passed quickly.

Finally, the wizard named Eugene stepped out of the cave group and sent Grimm a witchcraft message.

So Grimm led Gargamel and Sabrina to rush into the underground cave.

A dark red "tower" stood there silently, standing in the central area of ​​the cave group. The tower body is made of a large amount of volcanic rocks, and with the excessive fire energy inside, the entire wizard tower exudes a hazy red light.

If Grimm guessed correctly, the lava well he found had probably become part of the base of the Wu Tower, and the Wu Tower's energy room was already connected to the magma sea below. This also indicates that this 'tower' will never be short of energy.

At least there will be no shortage of fire energy!

As he slowly approached the Wu Tower, a pair of fine gold doors at the bottom of the Wu Tower slowly opened, and three wizards from the Silver Alliance were waiting for Grimm's arrival inside.

In the hands of the rune array master, there was a strange crystal shining with colorful light.

"This is the control crystal of the core magic array of this Wu Tower. You need to use it to activate the rune magic array of the entire Wu Tower. Only then will this Wu Tower be truly opened. Okay, you go in alone to complete the soul confirmation!"

A trace of excitement appeared on Grimm's handsome face, and he nodded silently and took the strange crystal.

The solid, cold, transparent crystal seemed to be surging with strange magical energy... He held the crystal and looked at it carefully. Grimm nodded to the three people and then walked slowly into the Witch Tower alone.

The Witch Tower has five floors. The first thing you see when you walk in is a huge witchcraft hall, which will also be the main public activity place for wizard apprentices in the future. In the future, this place may be crowded with people and have complete witchcraft facilities, but now it is an empty hall.

In addition, Grimm also saw a small library on the left side of the hall, and the apprentice residence was on the right side, with a row of small stone rooms, and of course there was no furnishing inside.

The spiral stone staircase leading to the upper level is located in the corner of the hall. Because it has not been carefully polished, the simply carved stone steps and walls still look a bit rough and simple.

When Grimm held the control crystal in his hand, the internal structure diagram of the entire Witch Tower had actually been completely projected into his mind. However, the elemental altar in the energy room has not been unsealed, and the core witch formation of the witch tower has not yet taken over the small rune formations distributed throughout the tower, so the entire witch tower is still in a silent state and cannot respond to his commands.

Stepping into the spiral stone staircase, some special witchcraft secret words and rune gestures were projected in front of Grimm. Only by reciting the spell with the gestures will the temporary passage leading to the underground material warehouse on the first floor and the energy room on the second floor be opened in front of him.

Otherwise, this spiral stone staircase can only lead to the second floor above ground.

This also means that those who do not have control authority should not even think about getting close to the material warehouse and the energy room!

Grimm hesitated for a moment, suppressed the urge to visit the energy room first, and instead walked slowly up the stone staircase, heading straight to the fourth floor where the core witch formation was located. chapter;
