Chapter 0040 Loans

The giant crocodile king of the swamp is dead.

Died at the hands of two inconspicuous little men!

Greem commanded the soil demon puppet to quickly kill the giant crocodile king, harvested some important biological materials and an earth crystal core the size of a pigeon egg, and then ran away before many swamp giant crocodiles surrounded him.

And when Greem's figure disappeared at the end of the path, behind a ghost tree less than half a mile away from the battlefield, Mary in red was looking at the giant swamp crocodile in the distance that kept making angry short hisses with her eyes filled with confusion. Under her body, the broken bodies of 14 carrion crows were discarded crookedly.

She had a panoramic view of Greem's entire battle just now, which made her feel a little sad.

Swamp giant crocodile king?

That's a terrifying monster that even she won't mess with!

Although the Swamp Giant Crocodile King only has the rank of senior apprentice, and she is also a senior apprentice, the actual combat power is not calculated in this way. With her super agility, the giant swamp crocodile king couldn't even touch the hem of her clothes even if it had wings. However, the thick and despairing scales of the giant swamp crocodile king cannot be broken through by her "weak" attack.

If you really want to talk about it, the giant swamp crocodile king can't catch up with her, and she can't beat the giant swamp crocodile king.

So Mary in Red clearly knows the limits of her abilities. Without good defense, she might be able to torture many wizard apprentices. But as the apprentice's strength continues to improve, her advantage will become smaller and smaller.

And now, an inconspicuous junior apprentice "little brother" has actually hidden such a method, and can use that weird clay puppet to kill this giant crocodile king in the swamp.

This...this really made her a little confused!

Looking at the broken crow corpse beneath her, her eyes were a little confused and wandering.

That was the "little brother" she accepted with her own hands! When did he become the main force in the battle, and he became a slave who cleans up peripheral informants? For no reason, Mary felt a surge of anger in her heart, and her green eyes were stained with blood.

He is the boss, and he is just a younger brother. This primary and secondary relationship must not be changed! It seems like it’s time to find time to teach this self-righteous “subordinate” a lesson. Although he had been kind to him before, that could not be the reason for him to ride on her head. Well, teach him a lesson when you get back!

Suppressing the manic and muffled shouts in her heart, Mary swooped forward and transformed into a petite vampire bat, flapping her wings and disappearing from the spot.

When Mary in red knocked on the door full of anger, she was greeted by Grim's bright smile.

Pulling Mary into the room, Grim presented his gift like a treasure.

"Mary, what do you think this is? Don't you like the blood of strong men? Do you think this is useful?"

The fishy and pungent viscous blood was put in a clay pot and presented to Mary with Greem's hands holding it. His face was shining with anticipation, with an expression of hoping to be praised.

"What...what is this?" Mary asked anxiously.

Somehow, her anger, which had just come to the door in a fierce manner, disappeared in an instant, and even her own speech became somewhat stagnant.

"Don't ask first. Try it first and see if you like it! I made a lot of them this time. If you like them, I will go to the laboratory to purify them and get rid of the fishy smell. This will definitely taste better! "

Mary in red had a tight pretty face and criticized unreasonably.

"How can anyone give a gift like you? There is no decent decoration, just use a rough clay pot to hold it. At least it should be replaced with a crystal clear tall crystal cup! And how do you extract this blood? Don’t you know that the sweetest thing in a living thing is the heart’s blood? For the sake of your sincerity, I will forgive you for being rude this time. Remember to pack them up and offer them to me next time!

"Understand, understand, understand... understand, understand, understand... this... Mary! You have read so many things, and I'm afraid it will take a lot of time to finish them all at once. My knowledge may not be enough..."

Mary in red's green colored eyes were narrowed into a thin line, with a dangerous light flashing inside.

"What? Are you borrowing money from me?"

"No, no... I'm just borrowing it temporarily, and I'll return it to you when the things I put up for sale are sold." Greem couldn't help but laugh. The earth crystal core harvested this time is obviously better than the previous one, and the space for laying out the witch formation is also larger. How to use it more rationally has become a big problem.

The time for departure was getting closer and closer, and the time left for him was getting less and less, and there were still several urgent things waiting for him to complete.

The earth-type crystal core just harvested is undoubtedly one.

Greem already had an alternative idea about this crystal core. Since they are both earth crystal cores, why can't the summoned earth demon puppets be connected in energy? Wouldn't it be better if we separate and work on our own, but together we share energy?

For Greem's new idea, the chip has already completed the preliminary calculations, and it only needs to collect a part of the witchcraft knowledge of energy connection and soul coordination to formally construct it.

The second thing that Greem was eager to do was appropriate defensive witchcraft.

He currently has two fire magics, one is a close-range attack, which also has some self-defense function, and the other is a pure long-range attack, which always leaves him with a huge loophole in personal protection. If he doesn't find a way to improve this, he will always be a scum that can be easily killed in front of those senior apprentices.

The evil insect Entik is simply an indestructible cockroach with the splitting of the insect body, and is not afraid of enemy attacks at all. The mad woman has a very high physique and her own attack power is indestructible, so she never needs to worry about her own safety. The ability of Hawkeye Crusa is unknown. Red Mary is extremely agile and has a terrifying method of sucking blood to regenerate, so she is also a cockroach-level figure.

These senior apprentices that Grimm can collect information from have already had their own complete and systematic witchcraft paths. Whether it is offense or defense, they have their own unique coping methods, so the combat power they show is also very different. But no matter who he faces, Grimm is not sure that he can survive from them.

This is Grimm's current flaw.

Due to the lack of knowledge and resources, Grimm is at the bottom of the list even among the junior apprentices. So far, he has not really chosen his own path, so there is no witchcraft system built around his own wizard path.

Although he was determined to become a rule wizard before, and he also had some methods of the esoteric wizard. But before he could work hard for it, this damn mandatory task interrupted his normal path forward.

If he followed the previous plan, he should now invest most of his resources in the basic knowledge and theory of fire witchcraft, and strive to improve his mental strength so that he can catch up with the big team as soon as possible and become an intermediate apprentice. And according to his estimate, this process will take at least 3 months to see initial results.

But now there is a red nightmare-like mandatory task pressing on his head. If he does not have a means to deal with it when the time comes, he may not even have the chance to regret and will die in that terrible dark cave. For this reason, Grimm had to adjust the resource allocation plan and put all the chips on summoning puppets.

The direct consequence of this is that Grimm is going bankrupt!

He didn't have enough knowledge points to go to the alchemy laboratory, nor did he have enough knowledge points to collect defensive witchcraft, and he didn't have enough gold coins to buy some suitable props...

Other things can be put aside, but not having enough knowledge points to support the refining of new crystal cores is really the death of Grimm. Otherwise, he wouldn't have given up his face and wanted to take advantage of Mary.

Mary's colorful eyes stared at Grimm for a long time, and finally nodded silently.

Getting an "investment" from Mary, Grimm immediately rushed to the alchemy laboratory and chose 7 hours of ample time super luxuriously.

This time, the earth crystal core left by the Swamp Crocodile King was the size of a pigeon egg. According to the design of the chip, in addition to several basic control witch arrays, more space can be reserved for energy nodes. Therefore, the last crystal core for summoning magic puppets only had 4 energy nodes, and this one will reach 9.

More energy nodes mean more complex witch array designs and numerous structural changes, so the chip has been busy with calculations and tests since the moment the crystal core was in hand.

And when Grimm had processed all kinds of witchcraft materials in advance, the chip was considered to have completed this work.

"Ding, the latest magic puppet summoning crystal core structure design has been completed, do you want to transmit data?"

"Transmit!"

As a stream of data came in, Grimm closed his eyes and finally saw this custom-made three-dimensional witch array.

Counting carefully, there are as many as 15 large and small witch arrays that need to be etched on the surface of the pigeon egg-sized summoning crystal core, and they need to be connected to form a more sophisticated and huge perfect witch array. Only the chip can complete such work so quickly, but Grimm can't even parse most of the rune structures inside.

After trying several times, Grimm had to give up this self-torturing and meaningless contest and pay attention to the problems that need to be paid attention to when etching.

The chip is like a powerful auxiliary tool. With its help, Grimm can completely avoid the lack of knowledge and skills and directly decompose the overall work into countless simple and direct local operations. With the help of trivial local operations, Grimm, a beginner in alchemy, can complete those complex rune structures that only alchemy masters can master and refine in one go.

Therefore, at this time, Grimm is more worried about whether he can do this job, but whether his mental strength can support such a huge and tedious task project.

However, he seems to have no way out.

As soon as possible, he will form the magic puppet troops he needs, optimize the means of attack, and then squeeze out time to master a defensive witchcraft, so that he can attack and defend at the same time. This is the key to surviving this mission!

Grimm took a deep breath, stood in front of the alchemy table again, put aside all distractions, and devoted himself to the preparation of the new summoning crystal core.
