Age of Adepts

chapter-97
Though their minds were filled with worries, the return journey back to the Adept Tower had gone rather smoothly.
After Greem used a secret magic word to disperse the huge Wind Elementium body of Lightning Giant, within the blink of an eye, the massive monster simply turned back into seven crystal clear, dazzling magical cores.
Before Greem could put them all away, Mary had leapt forward and placed them in her palms, giving them a good fondle and careful examination, while showing a look of great affection. After some time, as if just looking at them wasn’t enough to express her love, Mary actually brought the primary core to her face and kept stroking it gently, quietly feeling the slight tingling sensations caused by the tiny electricity sparks on her face.
Ugh… looking at this scene, Greem couldn’t help but feel helpless, as some black lines appeared on his forehead.
Come on, though these cores looked beautiful and glittery like some pure and magnificent objects, they were actually a fighting Golem that killed without blinking its eyes! After Mary had witnessed the savage and brutal performance of the Golem, she actually showed great attachment to it. This… Greem couldn’t help but sigh with mixed emotions, telling himself that most of the people who took the path of an Adept were those who had some sort of weird mentalities.Suppressing the complaints he had in his mind, Greem finally took back his number one Golem from Mary’s hand. At the same time, he tossed a blood-colored crystal over to her. With Rock Snake’s ability to control Earth Elementium, it wasn’t too big an issue to filter out blood mixed with the dirt. His only hope was that after losing such a huge amount of blood, Toril wouldn’t have his overall strength drop too much, or else, for no reason, Greem would have to face another deadlier enemy in future.
Even after such a violent battle, all the summoning cores of Lightning Giant were still intact, but the summoning core of Rock Snake had suffered a lot of damage, which was the result of getting an Advanced Apprentice level Rock Snake to risk its life to pin down a formidable Bloodline Pseudo-Adept. After Greem dispersed the Golem’s body, only then had he realized that the Elementium on this summoning core was in a state of disorder and the magical energy was leaking uncontrollably. It simply looked as if it couldn’t be used anymore.
Greem took some time and examined it thoroughly. When the Chip finally confirmed this summoning core could no longer be repaired, he had no choice but to put it away regretfully.
And after tidying up themselves at the edge of the mountain range, both of them finally returned to the Adept Tower stealthily. However, as they were about to step into the main entrance of the Adept Tower, the two rock ghost statues placed on either side of the entrance suddenly moved.
