However, it was Lin Li's order, and even if Gavin and the others were puzzled, they would not disobey Lin Li's orders. Anyway, the Tower of Dusk now had a huge amount of wealth, and the investment of hundreds of millions of gold coins in Papuria City was actually just a drop in the bucket.
Of course, the actions of the Tower of Dusk also attracted the attention of the other forces, especially the Gilded Kingdom, who seemed to be a little nervous. Cantory and Jorre had promised to give the Tower of Dusk the nautical information, but they did not expect the Tower of Dusk to decide to develop their naval forces so quickly.
The Gilded Kingdom was far away at sea, and once a war broke out in the Breezy Plains, they would definitely need to provide support through the sea. If the Tower of Dusk also had a certain amount of naval power, it would be a great threat to the Gilded Kingdom when a war broke out in the future. Although Cantory and the others were confident that their kingdom's fleet was definitely not comparable to the Tower of Dusk's newly established fledgling fleet, it would still be troublesome.
In order to figure out the intentions of the Tower of Dusk, the Gilded Kingdom used a lot of connections in hopes of finding out something from the young president. However, when the matters at the port and the shipyard were on track, Lin Li once again returned to the inverted tower of the Sky Castle, and did not give anyone a chance to find out anything at all.
In the inverted tower of the Sky Castle, Lin Li, who had already reached the peak of level-27, no longer needed to train himself through the Barbarous Arena. Perhaps he would still gain some enlightenment in those battles, but it would not be of any obvious help to the improvement of his strength.
Lin Li returned here again mainly because he wanted to explore the higher floors of the inverted tower, hoping to find an opportunity to break through. However, what made him feel strange was that he couldn't find the staircase to the higher floors of the tower even though he had searched the space on the second floor of the tower. It seemed that the only way was to enter the Barbarous Arena.
However, after entering the Barbarous Arena, Lin Li only experienced a few more battles, and was sent out without any resistance after defeating his last opponent. Could it be that this was the end of the inverted tower? That was obviously impossible. Although the magical books on the first floor and the Barbarous Arena on the second floor were of incomparable value, Lin Li believed that they were definitely not all the treasures that Geresco had left behind.
However, when Lin Li was at a loss, and was about to put the matter aside for the time being, he suddenly discovered that there seemed to be something wrong with the stone platform where the crystal ball was placed when he was observing the battle scene through the crystal ball outside the Barbarous Arena. To be more specific, the God's Eye mageweath engraved on the stone platform made Lin Li vaguely notice something strange.
The God's Eye mageweath was very common in the various Magic Towers. It was a common method used to monitor the surroundings of the Magic Tower, and it was usually only at the Master level. The difference was that the mageweath engraved on the stone platform could not only monitor across space, but also record and store the battle scene. It could also allow people to observe and study the battle scene from all angles. Hence, the complexity of the God's Spirit's Eye mageweath had reached the Guru-level standard. It could even be said to be a peak Guru-level mageweath.
However, when Lin Li saw the Guru-level God's Eye mageweath for the first time, he understood all its functions at a glance, and did not spare any energy to pay more attention to it. After all, to him, improving his strength was the most urgent task at the moment, and such a simple auxiliary Guru-level mageweath was not worth wasting time studying.
However, this time, Lin Li still couldn't find the entrance to the next level, and he couldn't find a way to continue spending time and energy to improve his strength. Hence, he naturally had the energy to pay attention to the things that originally seemed to be trivial. Lin Li was initially just looking at it casually, as if he would pick up a piece of paper and read it for a long time when he was bored. However, after taking a look, he suddenly couldn't take his eyes off it.
It turned out that there seemed to be another mageweath of unknown use hidden in the Guru-level God's Eye mageweath. Just like how the Conquering Mageweath and the Psychic Array shared mana pathways above the Sky Castle, there was also a mageweath hidden in the God's Eye mageweath that shared mana pathways.
Moreover, the Conquering Mageweath and the Psychic Array only shared the main mana pathways to achieve the purpose of sharing the source of mana. However, the God's Eye mageweath could not actually be said to share the mana pathway with another mageweath. It was simply like using the existing mana pathways to form another mageweath, and there was almost no deviation between the two. Just from that alone, it was obvious that Geresco's attainments in inscription were much higher than Highlord Osric's.
In Lin Li's opinion, the mageweath was already at the peak of Guru-level, and was probably only a step away from the legendary Divine Smith level. If the mageweath was a magic trap, Lin Li would have to spend at least a month or two to crack it, and there would definitely be dangers during the process.
Fortunately, after careful observation and research, Lin Li knew that the mageweath hidden in the God's Eye mageweath was not a fatal trap, although it was also a triggering mageweath. Actually, it made sense. Since Geresco had left the treasure to Lin Li, why would he leave any fatal trap here? At most, it was just a test for Lin Li.
Lin Li spent half a day analyzing the entire mageweath bit by bit, and finally found out that the mageweath hidden in the God's Eye mageweath was actually more like an evaluation device. It was just like the method used by ordinary Guilds of Magic to test a mage's mana and talent, except that it was more sophisticated.
Why did the mageweath for this review have to be hidden so well that Lin Li almost missed it? He could not guess the reason behind it. Be it magic, inscription, alchemy, or even pharmaceutics, they were all about the understanding and use of power and Laws. Perhaps the powers involved between them were different, but in terms of rules, they could be said to be the same. The ultimate goal was to step into the realm of the gods and obtain the power of the gods.
Lin Li was able to discover the hidden mageweath in the God's Eye mageweath not only because he had Guru-level attainments in inscription, but also because he had a deeper understanding and mastery of the Laws through this period of training. Hence, the hidden mageweath could actually be seen as a test for him. If he discovered the mageweath as soon as he entered, it meant that he had already reached a certain level of understanding of the Laws. Naturally, there would be no need for him to enter the Barbarous Arena to train.
After figuring out the activation method of the mageweath, Lin Li gently pressed his palm on the center of the mageweath on the stone platform, and slowly injected his mana and mental strength into the mageweath. With Lin Li's movements, the mageweath on the stone platform that was holding the crystal ball gradually became brighter, until it engulfed Lin Li's figure and everything in the hall.
At this moment, Lin Li suddenly felt as if there was an eye in the dark that could see through everything about him from the inside out. Be it his mana or mental strength, his understanding of the Laws in his soul, or his accumulated battle experience, they were all displayed in the endless light. It could be said that it was an extremely detailed assessment of a person's strength. There was nothing more real and comprehensive than such an assessment.
When the light receded like the tide, a staircase leading to a higher level appeared on the wall on the side of the hall. However, there was no turn in the staircase, and it went straight up. One could already see the end of the staircase when standing at the bottom. Lin Li left the crystal ball and stone platform, and walked up the stairs step by step. Soon, he arrived at the third floor that he had been thinking about for a long time.
The space on the third floor was not very large, but because there were not too many furnishings, it seemed a little empty. On the ground of the third floor, there was a huge Alchemy Array that occupied the entire ground. However, it seemed that only the mana source in the center of the Alchemy Array was still emitting the light of mana. The rest of the Alchemy Array was in a dormant state, and did not immediately activate because it appeared. There was not a trace of mana flowing in the magic circuit.
The Alchemy Array had to be related to the key to entering the third floor. Lin Li suppressed the excitement in his heart, and quickly left the stairs. He carefully stepped into the huge Alchemy Array, and began to take a closer look.
The Alchemy Array was also close to the existence of a Divine Smith, and Lin Li could even vaguely feel that there was already a trace of the aura of a Divine Smith in it. That was precisely the reason that he still felt like he was looking up at the Alchemy Array on the ground even though he was also a Guru of Alchemy Arrays.
However, what shocked Lin Li even more was that the Alchemy Array that was close to the realm of a Divine Smith that he could not master was actually the same as an Alchemy Array that he had seen in the game Endless World.
The Alchemy Array in the Endless World was called the Door of the Prehistoric World, and it was the entrance to a large group dungeon that allowed players to enter a prehistoric world through the Door of the Foreign Realm.
Since that world was called the Great World, there was naturally no lack of Great World Magical Beasts with terrifying strength, and the number of Great World Magical Beasts was not small.
