However, no matter how much the Tower of Dusk had developed, it was just a local force in the Breezy Plains, after all, while the messenger of the Gilded Kingdom represented the powerful Gilded Kingdom that had the best fleet in Anril. There was a huge gap between the two, and when the two were put together, it was like comparing a remote mountain village to a bustling city. It was impossible to treat them as equals.
Hence, the messenger of the Gilded Kingdom naturally wouldn't be particular about any diplomatic etiquette with the Tower of Dusk. After a small surprise, the messenger of the Gilded Kingdom put on the posture of a messenger of a kingdom, and went straight to the gate of the Tower of Dusk's Magic City. He said to the mage in charge of reception, "Go and inform your president that the messenger of the Gilded Kingdom has something to talk to him about. Tell him to come and see me. Besides, my time is very precious, so don't hold a welcoming ceremony or anything like that. "
Hearing the words of the messenger of the Gilded Kingdom, the mage couldn't help but have a strange expression. Ever since Lin Li stepped into the Sanctuary-realm, it was the first time a visitor put on such an attitude. He even said that he would hold a welcoming ceremony. Even during the period when the Tower of Dusk had just been established, those who dared to put on such an attitude did not end up well!
The mage in charge of reception looked at the people of the Gilded Kingdom from head to toe. Although he was very displeased with their attitude, he was, after all, on duty. Hence, he did not waste too much time. After bringing the messenger of the Gilded Kingdom to the reception hall, he turned around to inform the senior executives of the Tower of Dusk.
At this moment, Lin Li was continuously challenging stronger opponents in the Barbarous Arena. Hence, the mage in charge of reception naturally couldn't see him. Hence, he reported the news of the arrival of the messenger of the Gilded Kingdom to Gavin, who was a senior executive of the Tower of Dusk.
The messenger of the Gilded Kingdom was undeniably lucky. Fortunately, Lin Li didn't have the time to meet them. Otherwise, given their attitude, Lin Li would have thrown them out of the Tower of Dusk even if he didn't destroy them. After receiving the report from his subordinates, Gavin, who came to meet the messenger of the Gilded Kingdom, was much calmer.
"Are you Felic, the president of the Tower of Dusk?" the messenger of the Gilded Kingdom asked when he saw Gavin enter.
"Hehe." Gavin smiled, not bothered by the attitude of the Gilded Kingdom's envoy. Of course, he wasn't enthusiastic, either. After gesturing for him to take a seat, he calmly said, "I'm sorry, our president has not been here recently. What brings you here, envoy?"
Gavin did not explain much to the envoy of the Gilded Kingdom about Lin Li's matter, and instead directly asked him about his purpose of coming there. For a person with a good temper, this was probably the most intense response.
Hearing that the president of the Tower of Dusk was not around, the messenger of the Gilded Kingdom couldn't help but frown, but he did not dwell on it. Instead, he said, "Okay, I'll tell you then. Tell your president that we will be holding a meeting in Calon City in 10 days, and the leaders of the various forces of the Breezy Plains will have to attend. That's all."
The envoy of the Gilded Kingdom didn't even mention his name when he came up, and he didn't even mention the topic of the meeting. After saying that, he got up and bade farewell, looking like he was afraid to stay there for another second.
Gavin still had a calm expression on his face, and he did not ask what the matter was. When the messenger said that he wanted to leave, he stood up and sent them to the door. After the people of the Gilded Kingdom swaggered off, the mages around Gavin could not help but look indignant. If Gavin had not been there, they would have probably lit the sky lanterns on those arrogant guys.
Faced with the complaints of his subordinates, Gavin waved his hand indifferently, and instructed them to do their own things. He then went to the inverted tower of the Sky Castle through the Teleportation Portal of the Tower of Dusk.
Gavin did not wait long in the hall of the inverted tower, and bumped into Lin Li and the others who were coming out of the Barbarous Arena one after another. Hence, he reported to Lin Li about the visit of the messenger of the Gilded Kingdom, as well as the meeting that would be held in Calon City in 10 days.
"Gavin, you're too good-tempered. It's a pity that I didn't make it in time. Otherwise, I wouldn't have let them leave so easily." Alan, who had been through countless fierce battles, had a ferocious aura around him at this moment, and was no longer as refined as an ordinary mage.
Faced with Alan's sarcasm, Gavin smiled indifferently, and said, "Isn't there still a negotiation? If things don't go well, wouldn't you have more reason to teach them a lesson?"
"Mr. President, when you see it, will you bring us along?" Alan seemed to have been tempted by Gavin's words, and turned around to speak to Lin Li with a smile on his face as if he was asking for some benefits. Clearly, the group of mages led by Alan had unknowingly become belligerent after experiencing countless battles in the Barbarous Arena.
Lin Li rubbed his chin, squinted slightly, and said, "Well, we've been here for a long time, and it's indeed time to relax. However, there are still 10 days left. If you can advance by another level in these 10 days, I'll bring you along. Otherwise, you can stay here. "
"Whoosh!" With a series of footsteps, everyone, including Elan, disappeared without a trace in an instant. They all charged into the Barbarous Arena once again.
Seeing this scene, Gavin was a little dumbfounded. How long had it been? Why had the group of mages become so belligerent?
"Okay, Gavin, things in the Tower of Dusk have been back on track recently. If you have time, come here often to train. Although it won't allow you to advance quickly, such battles are still very effective in improving your combat power. "Gavin was an old man who had joined the Tower of Dusk since its establishment, and Lin Li naturally wouldn't forget his contributions.
Although Gavin's strength had increased greatly during the magic tides this time, his achievements would probably stop there for the rest of his life if there was no way to digest the increase. If he could enter the Barbarous Arena and train through a lot of actual combat, Gavin would be able to quickly integrate the power that he had obtained so easily into his body.
"Yes, President. As long as I have time in the future, I will come here often." Although Gavin was obsessed with power, he also knew that the path of magic was the right path for a mage. Power and wealth were all illusory. In particular, when he saw his companions around him, many of whom had joined around the same time as him, were continuously improving their strength, he couldn't help but feel a sense of eagerness.
After chatting with Gavin for a while, Lin Li once again resumed his routine, and continued to continuously challenge powerful opponents in the Barbarous Arena. Although Lin Li had yet to defeat his 11th opponent, he had still gained a lot. At least, he wouldn't be sent away by his opponent in seconds, and would be able to last for a few minutes.
His opponent was a powerhouse at the peak of the Sanctuary-realm, and Lin Li was only level-27. Being able to last for a few minutes against a powerhouse at the peak of the Sanctuary-realm was already an impressive achievement. It would probably scare people to death if they heard about it.
At this moment, five giant battleships from the Gilded Kingdom were quietly docked in the port city of Calon City on the southern coast of the Breezy Plains. The originally spacious port was almost occupied by the five giant battleships, and the other merchant ships and cargo ships had no choice but to turn to the nearby small port.
Calon City was originally the territory of the Dark Blade, and the port of Calon City played a huge role in the Dark Blade's development and becoming the top of the top 10 bandit groups in the Breezy Plains. Later on, the Dark Blade was destroyed by the Tower of Dusk, and Calon City was taken over by the nearby Malfa Family. The Tower of Dusk chose a mine that seemed to be abandoned not far from Calon City.
At that time, Cheyenne of the Malfa Family was very puzzled by the Tower of Dusk's choice. After all, it was obvious which was more valuable between a prosperous port and an abandoned mine. However, it didn't take long for Cheyenne to regret his choice. The Tower of Dusk actually managed to dig out the Tera Mine in the abandoned mine, and discovered that the reserves were not low at all.
Of course, Cheyenne was also self-aware. If the Tera Mine really fell into his hands, it would probably not be a good thing, and would even bring disaster to the Malfa Family.
On the flagship of the Gilded Kingdom's fleet at the port of Calon City, a few people who were obviously dressed differently from the sailors were standing on the deck leisurely overlooking the scenery of the entire port.
With the wealth brought by the port trade, Calon City was considered one of the most prosperous cities in the entire Breezy Plains. However, even the tallest building in the city didn't seem to be higher than the deck of the Gilded Kingdom's giant battleship, allowing the few people to stand on the deck and see almost half of the city clearly.
The few people on the deck of the battleship were the main leaders of the envoys of the Gilded Kingdom this time, and the one who was sent to the Tower of Dusk was just a messenger. They all had an extremely high status in the Gilded Kingdom, and they didn't think that the president of a local force in the Breezy Plains was worthy of being personally invited by someone as honorable as them.
"General Nasry, you're too careful. We're just going down for a walk. Our battleship is docked in the port, and those good-for-nothings wouldn't dare to touch us even if they had 100 guts." The one who spoke was a man in his thirties with blonde curly hair. He looked rather handsome, but his expression was full of arrogance.
The arrogant golden-haired man was called Cantory, and he did have the right to be arrogant. Not only was he the favorite son of the chancellor of the Gilded Kingdom, but he was also the disciple of the Illuminati. In addition to his noble status, his strength was also a reason for him to be arrogant. At the age of 30, he was already a level-24 Legendary powerhouse, and was definitely an unparalleled genius among the younger generation of the Gilded Kingdom.
The General Nasry that Cantory mentioned was the commander of the fleet and the commander-in-chief of the Third Fleet of the Gilded Kingdom. As the commander-in-chief of the Third Fleet, Nasry was well aware of the importance of the mission to the Breezy Plains to the entire navy of the Gilded Kingdom. Hence, he dared not be negligent at all.
In fact, Nasry originally had the same thoughts as most people in the Gilded Kingdom, and they all felt that with their powerful navy, they would be able to sweep through the scattered Breezy Plains. However, he didn't expect to suffer a huge blow before his previous plan could be fully carried out. Not only did he lose many Legendary powerhouses, but he also lost two giant battleships.
After all, the Gilded Kingdom was an island nation on the sea, and did not have rich mineral resources. Hence, every giant battleship was extremely precious. This time, the Gilded Kingdom's plan to target the Breezy Plains was actually because they were eyeing the mineral resources of the Breezy Plains, and hoped to obtain the urgently needed minerals from the Breezy Plains. Otherwise, the development of the navy would come to a standstill. For the Gilded Kingdom that was founded on the navy, the development of the navy would have a huge impact on the entire kingdom.
"Cantory, we're bound to affect the interests of the forces of the Breezy Plains this time. We have to be careful."
Nasry shook his head slightly. Cantory's identity was special, and although it would be a great merit to complete the mission, he wouldn't have to bear any consequences even if the mission failed. Simply put, he was there for the sake of being gilded. However, it was different for Nasry. The previous plan had failed, and the loss of the personnel was not a big deal. The key was that the loss of the two battleships could not be explained. If the mission failed, his career would probably come to an end.
"General Nasry, you think highly of them. I don't think there's a need to negotiate at all. If they dare to go against us, we'll just destroy them all," said Cantory. In the Gilded Kingdom, Cantory was definitely the best of the younger generation because of his noble status and excellent talent. Everything he did had always been smooth sailing. Hence, he naturally did not take the forces of the Breezy Plains seriously.
Cantory's words made Nasry feel uncomfortable because he made it seem as if he was a coward. Hence, he reminded, "Don't forget, although the forces of the Breezy Plains are in a state of disunity, there's still a Sanctuary powerhouse holding the fort. I believe Elder Jorre is well aware of how terrifying a Sanctuary powerhouse is. The Ashen Warlock is not someone we can fight against with our ships and cannons. If we really provoke him, I'm afraid none of us will be able to go back. "
