<h4>Chapter 353: Six Stigmata Sorcerers!</h4>


    Trantor: EndlessFantasy Trantion Editor: EndlessFantasy Trantion


    In the temporaryboratory of Grimm, on the hugeboratory table.


    A huge magical array, made up of glowing magical runes of different colors emanated an ominous air of the ult code of life and death.


    It was the “enigmatic energy reversed digestive system carcass refinery array” that took Grimm a century toplete.


    On top of the carcass refinery array, pieces of living flesh were intertwined, squirming as they wrap around each other. Each of their sensory nerves was enveloped in a string of magical runes.


    The magical runes were floating above the sensory nerves. It was quite a sight.


    At the center of the carcass refinery array was a Heart of Vitality that was beating unceasingly.


    The intertwined and squirming sensory nerves were taking on the beating heart as their core. They carefully injected their nerves into it. A chimera that looked like an Amonro began to take shape in the center of the carcass refinery array.


    Grimm observed for a while. Beneath the Mask of Truth, he was frowning.


    “Caw, Master, is there something wrong with this chimera carcass refinery?”


    The myna was also looking at the carcass refinery curiously as it perched on top of Grimm’s shoulder. The sharp myna could sense something wrong with Grimm’s emotion.


    “Something’s not right for sure. There’s some problem with the “reversed energy digestive system”. But if it were an experiment, it would be passable.”


    As he was talking, Grimm took out an enigmatic stone from the dimensional gap and walked toward anotherb table.


    He ced the enigmatic stone into a device and carefully ground it down to a fine dust. He then put a small amount of it into his jar that he had been cultivating the living flesh in.


    He stirred the concoction cautiously before pouring a few drops of nutritional fluid on top of the Heart of Vitality.


    Grimm sighed. “Hopefully this would make up for some of the errors, but this chimera’s enigmatic seal could only bepleted in theb now and not out on the field.”


    There was a little error in Grimm’s enigmatic energy reversed digestive system carcass refinery array. It pulled down the chimera’s enigmatic sealing powers greatly.


    ording to his estimates, Grimm could only finish up the chimera’s enigmatic seals in theboratory.


    Myna didn’t mind it at all and said excitedly, “Caw caw caw, sure there are some errors, but overall it was a sess! Master, we should celebrate this properly!”


    Myna’s celebration naturally meant that a feast was in order.


    Grimm red at the Myna. “You go celebrate on your own, I am going to cultivate the Natural Elemental Soul now. This chimera will take shape in a month.”


    Cultivating the Natural Elemental Soul was simr to how a sorcerer would cultivate his own Soul ve. They were the sorcerers’ means of trapping the soul.


    The natural elemental soul was the key to controlling the chimera through sorcery.


    A monthter.


    As he reced the magical stones on the carcass refinery array for onest time, the living flesh on top of theb table hadpletely taken up the Heart of Vitality as its core seamlessly. Grimm’s second phase chimera was finally done!


    It had the basic features of an Amonro but without the long tails. There was a patch of long, white fur that covered its body. The fur was a distinct feature of a creature from the Burrow World. The chimera seemed to have been influenced by the naturalws of the Burrow World.


    Grimm ordered the chimera toe down theb table.


    The chimera was a meter in height and two meters in length. It looked like an Amonro, or a pig from the Sorcerer World.


    Constitution: 153,


    Fortitude: 115~255


    Strength: 79~268


    Vitality: 134~248.


    Abilities: Lesser Enigmatic Seal, Shadowmeld, Resistance against frost damage less than a hundred points, fire elemental attack.


    Grimm was a little disappointed. He mumbled, “We’ll call you Enigma #1 then.”


    The chimera could no longer be of much help to Grimm. It was no wonder that Grimm became disappointed in it, so much so that he didn’t even bother to give it a proper name.


    After some thought, Grimm decided to test out the exact ability of its enigmatic energy reversed digestive system.


    He walked to aboratory table and took out a Wolfspider that had just hatched.


    The Wolfspider was seven centimeters in length. Its body was still semi-transparent. The spider was the second generation that had been bred by Grimm in theb, not an original specimen from the burrow.


    After grinding down a few enigmatic stones into powder, and adding them into the magical ink, Grimm drew up a simple supportive magical array and ced the hatchling Wolfspider in the center of the magical array.


    Grimm turned toward Enigma #1. “Use the enigmatic seal on this Wolfspider.”


    A surge of enigmatic energy gushed out from the mouth of Enigma #1. With the help of the supportive magical array, the hatchling spider that was originally at seven centimeters long gradually shrank into two centimeters, then one, and finally, it turned into a tiny dot.


    Enigmatic #1 then swallowed the dot-sized Wolfspider.


    Grimm shrugged. Just sealing a tiny creature, even with the help of a supportive magical seal, took so much effort. Grimm was really disappointed in the performance of the chimera.


    No longer interested in Enigma #1, Grimm beganpiling the errors and weaknesses of the “enigmatic reversed digestive system carcass refinery array” in a note.


    ...


    Three dayster.


    “Caw? There’s a Thought Echo going on here!”


    The Myna squeaked curiously. Although Enigma #1’s Thought Echo was so weak to the point that it was insignificant, it was actually present. Enigma #1 really had the ability to use the Thought Echo!


    Grimm let out a sigh of relief and chuckled. “It’s only consumed a hatchling Wolfspider. If it continues on to seal the same creature over and over again, the chimera would evolve in the direction of the power that it gets after digesting the enigmatic energy that it had sealed enigmatically.”


    As he thought about this, Grimm began to feel more rxed.


    Even though the chimera experiment wasn’t aplete sess, it was able to prove that evolving a chimera using the enigmatic energy reversed digestive system was feasible.


    “Caw caw, master, why don’t you put Enigma #1 under my care for you, what do you think?”


    The Myna was buttering Grimm up again.


    Grimm didn’t really care much about Enigma #1, but there was some research value in it. He coldly dismissed the myna’s notion. “We’ll talk about itter.”


    Grimm once again walked toward theb table and continued to inspect his enigmatic energy reversed digestive system carcass refinery array for any errors.


    ...


    Twenty-two yearster.


    “Master Grimm, the great master passed a message to me. He’s asking you to go to the void fortress right this moment!” The Thousand-eyed Carcinus called from outside the temporaryboratory.


    Hmm?


    ck Isotta?


    Grimm’s expression became stern. He dared not dy and packed up everything in theboratory within half an hourss. There was a slight anxiety beneath his Mask of Truth. So, ck Isotta is going to give him the special assignment?


    What could a Level-6 Grand Stigmata Sorcerer’s special assignment entail?


    Grimm stood on top of the Thousand-eyed Carcinus, bringing the myna along with him as they rushed to the void fortress.


    At the void fortress, crowds of demon-hunting sorcerers were standing and discussing, as if something big had happened.


    Swoosh! Swoosh Swoosh!


    Three Level-3 Demon-hunting Sorcerers flew toward the Thousand-eyed Carcinus at breakneck speed. One of the sorcerers wore a ck mask. He called out to Grimm, “Demon-hunting Sorcerer Grimm, follow us.”


    He obviously knew who Grimm was, and he’d been asked by ck Isotta to greet him.


    Grimm took a deep breath secretly.


    Themotion, as well as the pressure and tension was boiling at the void fortress. It seemed like ck Isotta was going to hand him a mission that was beyond his wildest imagination.


    Grimm followed the three Demon-hunting Sorcerers across the busy fortress square.


    In the middle of the square, the magical clouds on top of the lower sorcerer’s tower were spiralling rapidly. There must be some huge magical energy ripples that elicited such a huge reaction.


    As Grimm was sensitive toward spatial ripples, he could easily sense that the square had been sted by a huge wide-range spatial ripples. It was very unusual.


    Grimm entered the base of the void fortress under the guidance of the three Level-3 Demon-hunting Sorcerers.


    “Master, I feel something is off.” The Myna whispered at Grimm’s ears.


    Duh...


    Grimm ignored the Myna. After going throughyers andyers of defensive positions, not less than ten rays of red lights scanned across Grimm thoroughly. They were apparently trying to verify Grimm’s identity.


    Buzz...


    “Confirmed identity of human sorcerer of the sorcerer’s world.”


    After the announcement from the mechanical voice, the Level-3 Demon-hunting Sorcerer that wore a ck mask nodded at Grimm. He was scrutinizing Grimm beneath his mask as he pointed toward a huge metallic door across.


    “Go now, the great ck Isotta is waiting for you inside.”


    All those introductions made Grimm nervous. But he nodded without showing any fear in him. He clutched his Sabbatic Goat Staff and walked toward the huge metal door.


    nk!


    The metallic door opened up by itself. In the well-lit great hall, Grimm saw at once ck Isotta that was sitting high up in the Elemental Throne. The spaces around him were crumbling endlessly.


    As Grimm was about to bow in the sorcerer’s manner, he noticed something was off.


    After quickly surveying the great hall beneath his Mask of Truth, Grimm’s body trembled instinctively. His face grew pale.


    “Six, six...six Stigmata Sorcerers!”


    At the high chairs within the great hall, there were six Stigmata Sorcerers who were above Grimm’s level of a real sorcerer sitting quietly. All eyes were on Grimm as he made his entrance in the great hall.
