Chapter 1023 - Crimson Power
Chapter 1023 Crimson Power
As one of the indirect beneficiaries of the war on the other plane, Alice successfully advanced to Third Grade on the fifth day of Greem’s return to the World of Adepts. She was now a high-grade adept.
Alice had decisively won in her battle against First Witch of Fate Maysa. Naturally, she had obtained a tremendous amount of Fate power feedback. Meanwhile, having helped the Crimson Clan defeat the vastly superior Fabres Clan had also allowed her to gain elementary proficiency over the veins of the world’s development. Thus, it wasn’t at all surprising that she had advanced so quickly.
This improvement allowed her to catch up and surpass Mary and Oliven, becoming the second most powerful authority figure within the Crimson Clan, second only to Greem.
However, Mary had obtained a large amount of high-quality blood from powerful individuals. As long as she successfully absorbed and assimilated the blood into her power, she should quickly advance by one to two minor grades. As such, it wasn’t entirely obvious who would hold the seat of second-in-command within the Crimson Clan yet.
While the three leaders of the Crimson Clan were chasing after each other and trying their best to improve themselves, most of the other Crimson adepts were also desperately following in the steps of the clan.
In the twelve years that came after the victory over the Fabres Clan and the domination of the Ailovis Region, many of the Crimson adepts slowly started advancing into Second Grade adepts due to the tremendous amount of adept resources and the guidance sent their way.
What used to be a pathetic squad of no more than a few adepts had now developed into an impressive and intimidating army.
Meanwhile, his hands and legs had devolved to various extents. They looked like branches that had lost all nourishment from the tree, skinny and withered. From a distance, they almost looked like slender chicken claws.
However, the overwhelming serpentine bloodline within him caused him to brim with life. His intimidating jade green eyes exuded an oppressive aura of cruelty and viciousness whenever they blinked.
Gargamel had now reached Advanced Second Grade. For the two First Grade succubi before him, he was as fearsome and vicious as a monster.
Gargamel looked at the succubi flaunting her natural Charm ability and hissed, “Little girl, as long as you aren’t worried that I’ll eat you out of some sudden hunger, you are free to visit me tonight. Kehkehkehe.”
There was no need to put on a vicious expression. Gargamel’s terrifying appearance and sinister aura alone were enough to scare the succubi pale. She fell silent and didn’t dare to probe any further.
The other succubus had clearly been around longer and knew the rules better. She gently said, “Lord Gargamel, the master is still working in the laboratory. You can wait in the hall on the third level first. Please follow me!”
The succubi led Gargamel towards a floating disc that would lead to the third level.
The floating stone disc was made out of red ochre found in the Eisent Region. There were plenty of strange magical patterns on the stone, even without any magical treatments or processing.
The three people got onto the disc. The succubi touched the disc somewhere, and powerful magical energy surged into it. The red-ochre floating disc turned translucent and glowed with a faint magical radiance.
It then slowly took flight, carrying the three people to the upper levels of the tower.
Gargamel’s eyes gleamed when he passed by the second level.
Tremendous changes had been made to the floor. Several semi-translucent magical barriers separated this floor of the tower into a dozen massive living areas. Each living area contained strange creatures of odd appearances, and the areas they lived in each had a unique environment.
Hot and dry deserts, snowy plains, flaming volcanoes, dark and humid swamps; there were all sorts of environments, each tailored with care and finesse. It was evident that the creator had spent a lot on the project and possessed a tremendous understanding of the arcane arts.
The clan leader’s power had increased yet again!
