Chapter 0474: Magical Insects

When a ‘small’ turmoil broke out again in the Black Forest, Grimm was busy in his laboratory.

Every time he completed his spiritual tempering, Grimm’s spiritual space would collapse slightly. During this period, he had to consume a large amount of energy substances by ‘eating and drinking’ to support the energy consumed by his body and mind during rapid self-recovery.

This is fortunate.

Because they are in the Black Forest, there is no shortage of monster resources.

It is said that there is a saying in the team of combat wizards: Only the wizard who can eat the most can become the wizard who can fight the most!

From this sentence, we can basically taste the attitude of wizards towards eating and drinking.

This is not because wizards are gluttons who are addicted to eating and drinking, but because of the fragility of the human body.

Whether it is an elemental wizard or a body-refining wizard, the human body is not a help for wizards, but a great constraint.

The higher the wizard's level, the more terrifying the elemental torrent the body needs to withstand when activating high-level witchcraft. If Grimm did not transform his body into an elemental form in time after becoming a fire wizard, then every time he activated a powerful fire witchcraft, it would cause substantial damage to his body.

You can imagine that the terrifying lava flames of up to thousands of degrees are running wildly in the body's blood vessels. If there is no strong body, I am afraid that these high-level witchcrafts will have burned the wizard's own blood vessels and flesh into ashes before they are activated.

And the elemental body will need more energy and material to support it!

The energy and material converted from an ordinary person's daily diet may not be enough to support wizards to cast the most insignificant witchcraft. Therefore, as an alternative high-energy creature, wizards must also rely on alternative diets to support the normal activities of this body.

For wizards, the so-called exquisite foods in human society are not only delicious, but also have no benefits for the body. If wizards want to become increasingly powerful, the magic energy meal made of monster flesh and blood is their indispensable daily aid.

Because it is adjacent to the Black Forest, the Flame Throne naturally has a great advantage in the storage of monster resources!

In the task hall on the first floor of the Witch Tower, the long-term task of purchasing monster flesh and blood is always at the top of the task list.

In the breeding room of the Witch Tower, some ordinary monsters with delicious meat are kept all year round. However, these monster flesh and blood will only be open to the upper level of the Witch Tower, so those lower-level wizard apprentices have almost no chance to taste them.

With the improvement of the ruling power of the Flame Throne, more and more wizard apprentices are attached to the Witch Tower. In addition to learning, experimenting and practicing witchcraft, their daily activities include traveling and exploring, which is also an increasingly common activity.

With the expansion of the apprentices' activities, the Flame Throne has a deeper understanding and exploration of the surrounding terrain.

Not long ago, a senior apprentice accidentally discovered the traces of a group of earth fire dragons while exploring deep underground. After he sold this information to the Wu Tower, Grimm's daily table had a main course called "Fire Dragon Ribs".

Of course, this name is a bit exaggerated!

A big and strong, stupid earth dragon that is comparable to an ogre can only be regarded as a sub-dragon creature with dragon blood flowing in its body. I'm afraid no one can tell the origin of their bloodline with the real fire dragon, but the trace of fire dragon blood in their blood is real.

Because the earth fire dragons live deep in volcanoes all year round and love to devour sulfur and fire energy cores, their flesh and blood are also soaked with a strong breath of fire elements.

Back then, in the elite apprentice camp in the dark crypt, Grimm only ate a meal of earth fire dragon ribs, which made his strength soar. Although now that he has become a wizard, the flesh and blood of these auxiliary magic creatures can no longer bring him a huge improvement as before.

But if he continued to eat it, the fire dragon ribs would still have a considerable impact on Grimm's body.

If eating and drinking lightly every day can make his body and spirit grow significantly, I'm afraid no wizard can resist the temptation of this red dragon fruit!

An adult earth fire dragon weighs 3,000 kilograms. After removing unnecessary offal and organs, the amount of rib meat that can be obtained is about 2,000 kilograms. After fully calculating the energy content of the fire dragon ribs and Grimm's fire magic power growth needs, the chip set a basic amount of 50 kilograms per day for Grimm.

50 kilograms of meat ribs!

If Grimm was an ordinary person, I'm afraid he would not be able to eat such a terrifying amount even if he was full to death.

But all this is just a small matter for Grimm.

Although Grimm still has a human appearance and normal human breathing, if you put him on the operating table for an autopsy, you will find that all his internal organs and flesh and blood tissues are completely different from those of humans.

This is also something that cannot be helped!

After becoming a wizard, any human will go further and further on the road of "alienation" until the day when they can never turn back. Even guys like Bilis have abandoned even the most basic human thinking and have ridden on the road of insectization without looking back!

In addition to the ribs of the fire dragon, Grimm has also tried the flesh and blood of the ground fire lizard.

Unfortunately, the sour and fishy smell is comparable to the witch medicine that the apprentice of the potion has randomly mixed. After trying it once, Grimm put it on the blacklist of the table.

In addition to all kinds of indiscriminate eating, Grimm now does the most common thing every day.

Now Grimm's spirit has been steadily improved to 8 points, almost on par with the wizard Korgan who has been promoted for more than 100 years. They are all senior old-fashioned wizards. But Grimm is lagging behind in all other physical attributes.

This is actually related to his short promotion time!

After being promoted to a wizard, he was busy running around, leaving him no time to settle down and consolidate his foundation. If it weren't for his many auxiliary means, I'm afraid he would never have achieved his current record.

Taking advantage of this rare "seclusion" time, Grimm immediately began to temper his body in all directions. This so-called medicinal bath is actually a means for low-level body-refining wizards to strengthen their bodies.

Use drugs or toxins with strong energy to constantly stimulate the wizard's body cells, so that they can achieve a dynamic balance between rapid death and recovery, so that they can continuously stimulate the body's potential to fully tap the physical strength.

Of course, using this method, you first need to solve the problem of continuous weakness after physical tempering.

And this can be completely solved by relying on the magic energy package.

It's just that Grimm is doing mental tempering and witch medicine body tempering at the same time, so the double weakness of body and mind often tortures him very uncomfortable.

You know, as a wizard, even if he usually stays indoors, he can grasp everything that happens in the wizard tower in detail with his strong mental perception. Even when necessary, he can control the changes in the pattern around the Black Forest like his arm.

However, at this moment, as his body and mind fell to the bottom, his mental power could not be released, and his body was weak. This mortal-like "feeling of weakness" gave him the illusion of being beaten back to his original form!

As the leader of a faction, this weak side must not be seen by his enemies and subordinates, otherwise it is very easy to cause some unpredictable things. So during this period of time, Grimm has never left the fifth floor of the Witch Tower, and even Gargamel, who prepared a medicinal bath for him, has never seen him in person.

Since his body and mind have been so weak that he can't see anyone, Grimm simply closed the door and began to carefully study some research projects that have been shelved for a long time.

In the past two days, the research project that he has been following up on is the "alien insect" that knows the spider's nest!

Unlike the mutant insect mother, this still alive alien insect obviously has its own unique survival ability.

If the mutant insect mother is pursuing "parasitic coexistence" with the host, then this alien insect is simply usurping and plundering.

This alien insect was taken from Medusa's body at the time, and was placed in it by the old spider himself, hoping that it could break out of the body and become a powerful assistant for himself. The power of this alien insect lies in its ability to plunder the host's innate instincts and transform them into nutrients for its own growth.

Although the innate instincts plundered in this way cannot restore the host's abilities 100%, it still makes Grimm feel sincerely surprised and shocked.

Throughout the ages, a person's innate nature has almost been determined at the moment he is born. Although it can be optimized and improved through a large number of rare resources in the later period, it is simply unimaginable to want to change your initial talents drastically.

After obtaining the alien insect, Grimm has read relevant books and historical records many times, but he has not found any information about this insect. At least in the witchcraft books and ancient books that Grimm has come into contact with, he has never heard of related and similar cases.

This further illustrates the preciousness of this alien insect's ability to plunder the innate abilities of other creatures!

Therefore, from the moment he got this alien insect, Grimm set up a laboratory for it alone and authorized the chip to conduct comprehensive testing and cultivation on it. After a series of witchcraft experiments, Grimm got a mixed result.

On the one hand, the insect can indeed plunder the innate instincts of the host organism.

On the other hand, the innate instincts it plundered are fragmented and disordered, and it is impossible to reassemble them through experiments.

Just like the old spider parasitized the insect on Medusa, even the old spider does not know what kind of abilities the mature insect will gain in the future. It is impossible to fully absorb Medusa's innate petrification technique, but a weakened version of the "paralysis gaze" has a considerable chance of forming.

How did this strange witchcraft ability come about? I am afraid that no wizard can clearly explain it.

This may be the main reason why the wizard world is always shrouded by a powerful mysterious force! chapter;
