Age of Adepts

Gilneas City.

In Continent Central, this small town with only 1 10,000 people is really unremarkable.

As the edge of Sarubo Clan, not at all the fully functional Adept Tower, but only a stone paved stone tower.

In recent years, the number of Sarubo Clan Adept has been decreasing, and the main Adept strength has been concentrated in those core areas. The Bluestone Tower, like the city of Gilneas, has not been officially posted for thirty-seven years.

Due to the lack of necessary manpower, the Bluestone Tower’s exterior walls have been covered by creeping vines everywhere, and the iron fences that are more than two meters high are also rusty. In many places, the holes are so large that they can be drilled.

The small gardens that once flourished were also abandoned. There were only weeds in the flower beds and a small pond that had dried up. The bluestone trail that extends from the garden gate to the Stone tower gate has been covered with fallen leaves and dust, and it seems that no one has ever passed by here.

So when Grim’s black carriage stopped at the gate of the garden, it was such a desolate and bleak scene.

“Adult, do we have to find a hotel to settle down, and then find someone to clean it?” Sablina’s shape is a bit weird, so always use black-robed to cover himself when going out. Seeing the sight in front of her, she helped Grim down from the carriage while she was suggested.

As for Billy, as a groom on the way, he stood by and stood by.

Grim is a black Adept gown, not at all attached to what Huge might’s Witchcraft, but just a simple energy shield. Since there is no need for combat for the time being, the three Aion Stones are included in the lumbar pocket. Grim slammed the ‘Destroyed Flame’ Sorcerer Staff and walked into the garden.

As soon as he walked into the garden gate, Grim clearly perceived a weak detection ripple sweeping his body.

Hey, the Witchcraft facility here has not completely failed.

Grim was full of suspicion and walked forward. The originally tangled vines suddenly came alive and retreated to the sides like a snake, giving way to the road.

Oh…

The Sorcerer Staff in Grim’s hands regularly slate the slate and walk through the bluestone path that lies among the weeds and vines. As he stepped forward, the front of the Variations Vinegar was also stepping back, revealing some slabs of bones on the exposed slate.

On the side of the bone, there are still broken daggers and decaying ropes.

Obviously, this is some 觊觎Adept wealth, thieves who want to take advantage of the Tower to fight the autumn wind.

These ignorant guys know where Adept’s terrifying. Even if this tower is left unattended, it is not something that these mortals can set foot on!

Planting some Magicked vines and bloodthirsty plants near the Adept home is also a protective method prevalent in the Adept world. These magical plants are not only blood-thirsty, but also long-lived. They don’t die easily even if they don’t have time to take care of them.

For the ordinary person, these carnivorous plants are simply terrifying creatures comparable to monsters. For Adept, they are the most tame and lovely ‘watchdog’.

Passing through the tortuous garden of less than 100 meters, Grim came to the front of the Stone tower.

When he tapped on the heavy stone gate with the Sorcerer Staff, an old face emerged from above.

“You have 5 to give you a passphrase at a time, or you will be punished by Adept!”

“The Light of Yale!”

“The password is correct! Welcome to Lord Adept.”

With the disappearance of Witchcraft’s servants, the door that had been dusty for many years was finally opened in a burst of squeaky noise.

“Sablina, take my identity token and start the core sorcerer array under the Stone tower!”

“Billy, you go to visit the managers here and let them report to me about the latest situation tonight!”

After sending the two followers, Grim began to walk through the tower.

3-Layer’s Stone tower, 1st floor is the place where apprentice and handyman rest and live. 2nd floor has a simple library and alchemy lab, and 3rd-layer is the residence of Adept. The 3-Layer is connected by a spiral Stone Staircase connection from the Stone tower.

It can be seen that the last time Adept left was a few decades ago. Although the Stone Tower also has some protections, there are regular Apprentice Adepts coming back to supplement Magic Crystal, but the energy pool is always in an energy-starved state.

This has also caused most of the closed windows to fail, and the erosion of dust and years has made the living facilities in the tower unusable. Even in some rooms, the magic vine has climbed half a wall. It seems that if you want to live here, you must carefully clean both inside and outside.

Grim pushed the wooden door open and went to a bedroom-like room.

A table and a chair with a wooden bed.

The whole room is rudimentary.

Grim’s sharp gaze swept through the house quickly, slowly walking to the wooden table, and rubbing the thick layer of dust on his hand, revealing a line of quirky text resembling a magical pattern.

“Death is with me!”

…………

It was only in a short half hour that Grim’s arrived. Gilneas City sent people to the Bluestone Tower.

The gloomy first floor is in the hall.

The decaying old furniture has been cleared.

Temporarily placed a beautiful red paulownia dining table, Grim leisurely leaned on the high back chair, while savouring the delicious little goose liver, while quietly examining the smiling Alva Viscount in front of him.

Alva Viscount is the manager appointed by Sarubo Clan and the City Lord of Gilneas.

At the moment, the other party is holding a thick layer of parchment, and constantly reports on the development of the small town in the past few years with a slight sigh of relief. Grim was not interested in this information, but he did not speak at all.

After all, they are waiting for the real ‘leading role’ tonight!

An hour later, on the occasion of the dry words of Alva Viscount, the sound of the horseshoe striking the bluestone was heard outside the Tower.

Immediately, the two servant Apprentice Adept came in.

They are the two Chief Apprentices of Sarubo Clan stationed at the pit and resource points.

The Chief Apprentice, stationed at the Iron Ring Excavation Site, is a Pseudo-Adept named Yuri, who also succeeded the Sac Chief Apprentice in the disaster two months ago. The person who is stationed at the Level 2 resource point is a guy named Morse and a Pseudo-Adept.

Seeing the arrival of the two Chief Apprentice, Alva Viscount, who had been smiling all at once, immediately flew back to the side and handed the stage to them.

For the name of Fire Demon, the two Pseudo-Adept have been heard in the field, but they have heard it. So I suddenly saw Grim and immediately came over to give gifts.

Seeing that the three were fairly sympathetic to themselves, Grim also turned off the idea of ​​standing up and began to ask the two Chief Apprentice about the situation ahead.

“I am in a good situation there. The resource points are apprentice 23 people, handyman 17 people. I have strictly prevented them from going out during this time, so nothing happened!” Morse could not help the applicants with a smiling face: ” Grim, your 2 apprentice came to report last month, I have arranged them in the inner courtyard, there is no problem in safety…”

Grim didn’t talk, just rushed his tiny jaw.

Some time ago, Grim’s 4 name Advanced Level apprentice, 3 was sent to the family here. So in public and in private, Grim can only run this trick, using their own wings to protect these bad luck eggs that have been caught by the fish.

“I just came to an Advanced Level apprentice and I have arranged for ore supervision. Although this work is complicated, there is no problem with safety…” Yuri also explained two sentences quickly, and then appeared on his face. Hesitant expression: “On the mine, someone was missing in the last few days. Although I didn’t find any clues, I doubt…”

“Alva Viscount, you have stayed in Gilneas for more than a decade. Recently, have you seen any unusual people in the vicinity?” Grim came to the beginning and didn’t know anything about the situation here. The source of intelligence can only rely on the three in front of us.

“You know, adults, Gilneas city is not at all decent Adept resources, so there is very little Lord Adept to stay here. But there are a few apprentices, I have secretly sent people to monitor, not at All What is abnormal!” Alva Viscount frowns, telling the information he knew about it, it sounds like there is nothing wrong with it.

“Well, you have to work together in the local affairs. Yuri and Morse, each manage their own territory, don’t let the enemy infiltrate into it. Alva, you have to work harder to monitor the movements of the periphery. Report the information to me. I am living in the Stone Tower for a while…”

“Adult, this Stone tower has not been taken care of for decades. You see if you go to my castle for a few days, I am looking for someone to fix it here and then stay again?” Alva Viscount has a good face Smile: “Gilneas city is small, but the big and small aristocrats in the city have already heard your prestige. They are waiting for your drive at this moment, you see if it is…”

When it comes to this, Alva Viscount’s face floats up and is a smile that a man knows.

“The things like entertainment are still considered when the situation is calm! Now the only thing we need to do is to do our own work and wait to see the changes in the situation!” Grim faintly rejected the other’s proposal.

He could feel it, and when he refused Alva Viscount’s banquet request, the two Chief Apprentice’s Spirits were slightly fluctuating.

It seems to be a bit disappointing.

It seems that in the days when there was no Adept, the private relationship between the two Chief Apprentice and the Sir City Lord was quite close.

After the three men left, Grim called Sablina and Billy in.

“Tonight, you two find a room on the first floor to stay, sleep well, nothing to do not go out!” Finished, Grim’s eyebrows picked, coldly asked: “Is it clear?”

“Yes, adults!”

Sablina and Billy hurriedly leaned over.

No reason, they have a tight heart, always feel something will happen in the tower this evening!
