Chapter 145
It was like the last calm before a major storm, the atmosphere within the Swampy Tower was rather strange.
The Swampy Tower was just a small resource site owned by Adept Family, and it only had a total of 49 Apprentice Adepts. There were even three Beginner Apprentices who had just learned how to meditate.
Yet, in this group of apprentices whose overall strength was on the low side, four famous Pseudo-Adepts had made their appearance without a proper ground. In addition to that, among the population of all Pseudo-Adepts, any one of these four alone could be considered an outstanding existence. This was an abnormal situation, no matter where it happened, people would shout at its bizarreness.
After all, it took a huge amount of resources to cultivate a Pseudo-Adept. And in order to become an Adept, besides hefty resources, they also needed some luck. With the current situation of the Swampy Tower, it would take extreme fortune to cultivate a single Pseudo-Adept, let alone produce all four of them at the same time.
Perhaps, it was because of the existence of these four Pseudo-Adepts, Sarubo Family had paid more attention to the Magical Swamp. In addition to the Mission Hall, the Arcane Hut of Clute, the Popoli Merchant, the Dephene Association of Delicacy, the Fenrir Pet Shop… all these shops and merchants who focused on apprentices had opened their businesses in the Swampy Tower.
Mixing amongst them, the Little Shop of Goblin opened by Snorlax had flourished in business.
Different from other businesses, from time to time, there would be one or two items that could be rated as that of premium quality that appeared in Snorlax’s little shop. They were either magical gemstones or magical materials or magical equipment. In short, no matter what sort of items, they would always attract a large crowd of Intermediate and Advanced Apprentices rushing to purchase them.
As for that honorable Snorlax who didn’t have an impressive appearance, it actually had an exalted rank amongst the apprentices of the tower, which was something hardly matched by any outsiders. The reason was simple, just with the three Pseudo-Adepts standing behind it, nobody in this Swampy Tower had the courage to provoke it.
One could tell that she had had enough of staying in this Swampy Tower.
She couldn’t find any higher grade magical potions, she couldn’t enjoy a slightly normal delicacy, she couldn’t obtain any of the advanced magical materials required for her magical experiments, and her residence was simply like a sheep pen… In this backward and dilapidated place, Alice just couldn’t imagine how Greem and the others managed to survive!
If not because of those merchants or associations who recently came into this place, bringing some changes to the Swampy Tower, Alice felt like she was going to rot in this dark and wet Magical Swamp.
Faced with a hard working ‘subordinate’ who took the initiative and to come to him for work, a gratifying smile emerged on Greem’s face. He casually took a white bread from the meal tray and placed it into Alice’s hand, and said with a smile on his face, “If you want to find something to do, why don’t you show me your abilities first? Can you toss this thing over at Snorlax’s head?”
Right after he finished his words, the white bread in Alice’s hands had disappeared.
She clapped her palms and rubbed off the bread crumbs, throwing a disdainful gaze over at Greem and portrayed a look of ‘just try me’.
Greem opened his mouth slightly out of surprise.
He quickly readjusted his mentality, picked up another piece of bread and placed into Alice’s hand. This time, he snapped his fingers and activated all the defense mechanisms of this magical residence.
Alice curled up her lips in disdain, grabbing the bread with both hands and gave it a rub. A strange spatial ripple was sensed in the air, before the bread disappeared once again.
Greem’s expression became even more dignified.
After he gave the last piece of bread over to Alice, not only had Greem activated every single defense mechanisms of his magical residence, he also focused his mind and unleashed a light red force field that covered the entire room.
Right now, Alice was residing within four layers of element defense or magical force fields, if she could still…
But too bad, before the thought could fully form in Greem’s mind, he saw Alice waved one of her hands, as a small spatial black hole emerged in front of her. After that, she quickly stretched the other hand with the bread into the black hole. When she finally pulled her hand out, there was nothing left in her palm.
Meanwhile, the spatial black hole had disappeared instantly!
