On her shoulder perched her angry parrot, Leafie, "All these thanks to some myna. If it wasn't for it, we would have been jolly well on our way back home."

"Ga?"

Myna wanted to defend itself but could find no suitable words to react. It murmured instead, "I, Lord Myna, did not do that on purpose. I, Lord Myna, am not just any run-off-the-mill myna too."

Myna's voice went softer and softer, drowned by self-consciousness as he spoke.

Grimm shook his head, "It was not a disaster. Yes, there was trouble, but being found by these flying squirrels could earn us some extra reward of Sorcerer Essence."

Extra Sorcerer Essence as a reward?

Sorcerer Essense always had its charm among sorcerers. Sorcerer-Apprentices would kill to be a Demon-Hunter, and Sorcerers would also risk their lives to partic.i.p.ate in a Demon-Hunting Expedition mission. What else would they want other than Sorcerer Essence?

Everything within the Sorcerer World could be bought with Sorcerer Essence.

"How much Sorcerer Essense are we talking about?" asked the old sorcerer who first joined Grimm's expedition.

Grimm pondered for a while before answering, "Five to ten pieces I presume. The actual number still needs evaluation of Battle Command before it can be finalized. I will now contact our Bright Sorcerer's rescue team."

Grimm took out his crystal orb and two pieces of Null World Stone, trying very hard to hide his weak condition.

Ignited by Grimm's Magic Power, the Null World Stones vaporized into a cloud of white mist circling the crystal orb in his palm.

Over time, Grimm felt a close connection with a certain soul somewhere far away.

The crystal orb flashed, and after a vague beating, the elderly Bright Sorcerer Julni appeared. The old witch said gravely, "Grimm, are you in trouble?"

"Yes."

Grimm responded with a similar tone, "It's a swarm of flying squirrels. I was blocked at the exit in a nest of the world. The flying squirrels numbered to about 300,000 to 400,000."

Julni's old face changed to an expression of awkwardness, clearly looking uncomfortable.

"That many? Grimm, you know, although I took over a group of Soul Slaves, I'm just a leader of a team with 25 Demon-Hunters, ..."

Grimm seemed to have expected the response saying, "It doesn't matter. Apart from you, I will contact another Bright Demon-Hunter team to aid us."

As she nodding, Julni seemed to regain her calm. "Okay, tell me your coordinates."

"Seven-seven-nine-four-six-three, six-eight-two-six-five-four-three-one, one-nine-two."

Julni nodded, and after a moment of silent calculation, she raised her head and said, "After a month, I will reach your coordinates and join the team of other Bright Demon-Hunters that you called."

"Okay."

Grimm nodded, closed the crystal orb connection, and melted another Null World Stone.

Grimm crystal orb flashed and a moment later, Cameron's handsome face appeared.

He stood on the back of an Abyss Dragon with a significant number of Soul Slaves Army behind him. Beside him stood a group of Bright Demon-Hunters.

"Grimm? You ..."

Grimm replied, "Cameron, please help me contact Captain Istanrima. There have been unexpected events, and I need your help."

"Ah? Okay!"

Surprised as he was, Cameron rode his dragon to the front of the Bright Sorcerer team quickly, pa.s.sing the crystal orb to his own Demon-Hunter team leader, Istanrima.

Soon, the crystal orb in Grimm's hands reflected the image of an honorable Bright Demon-Hunter. He was old, yet stern and majestic.

"Well, Grimm, is there anything I can help you with?"

After the customary sorcerer greeting, Grimm said, "Master Istanrima, I encountered some troubles at coordinates 7-7-9-2, 6-4-6-3, 6-8-2-6 6-5-4-1, 1-9-2. I was blocked by a group of flying squirrels inside the exit of the World Nest. Your aid is sorely needed. "

"Oh? How many are they?"

Istanrima seemed a little surprised, a hint of joy flas.h.i.+ng in his eyes.

"Well ... about 300,000 to 400,000!"

The old witch was calm as she nodded. "Okay. I'm quite a distance from the coordinates you've provided me, and it'll take me about two months to get there. Yes! Hehehe! I sure didn't expect to be continuously called for missions!"

Soon after, she closed the crystal orb connection.

Grimm breathed a sigh of relief, put away crystal orb, and looked at the team members around him who were also relieved. He spoke in a deep voice, "So, let's wait here, and they will contact us when the time comes."

"Okay."

Everybody left the Thousand-eyed Carcinus. They occupied a small area near the pa.s.sage and went on to tend to their own business.

While slowly rejuvenating his Magic Power, Grimm took out a piece of strange fur in which he wanted to study the clues of the self-sealing knowledge system. He began to study it carefully.

One month soon pa.s.sed.

Grimm took out his crystal orb again. A light curtain flashed, and Julni's old face appeared.

"Grimm, I've reached your coordinates."

Through the crystal orb's light curtain, Grimm saw more than twenty Bright Sorcerer players and hundreds of Soul Slaves behind her.

Nodding happily, Grimm was ma.s.sively relieved. He continued, "In a month's time, the team of Bright Sorcerers I contacted will arrive. We can work together then…"

Another month pa.s.sed.

Grimm led five other Demon-Hunters and flew out of the Burrow. Thousands of Soul Slaves and hundreds of Bright Demon-Hunters were fighting a fierce battle.

After taking a deep breath, Grimm gradually formed a dark red energy ball on the top of his Sabbatic Goat Staff.

"Fire Blast!"

Swoos.h.!.+

The dark red beam of light flickered.

With a loud roar, a dark red beam of light exploded among the flying squirrels, its billowing flames drowning out hundreds of them. The other five Dark Demon-Hunters behind him started their own battle as well.
