"Rest this afternoon."
The group of four returned to the Guild of Magic. Macklin only said one sentence, and went straight upstairs to look for Aldwin.
To be honest, he was quite satisfied with the performance of the three of them this morning. Apart from Mason's stupidity, the other two were definitely rare geniuses, especially the kid named Felic. That Mana Retroaction could only be described as amazing. Macklin had never seen anyone who could reach such a level at this age.
He had to have a good talk with Aldwin …
As soon as Macklin left, Orrin went to the meditation room alone, while Mason suggested going to Alanna for a stroll.
Lin Li looked at the sky, and remembered the appointment with the toothless adventurer. So, he had to turn down Mason's invitation.
Originally, he wanted to ask Sean to go with him, intending to take the opportunity to buy some clothes for him. However, after searching around the guild, he could not find the fellow. In the end, Lin Li had to leave the Guild of Magic alone, and walk along the bustling streets all the way to the Adventurers Guild.
Compared to the remote Jarrosus, Alanna was like another world.
Even the crowd in and out of the Adventurers Guild was very different from that in Jarrosus.
In the Jarrosus Adventurers Guild, a level-six warrior like McGrenn was already considered good.
But when he walked into the Alanna Adventurers Guild, Lin Li saw several adventurers who were close to level-10, and one of the bandits had even reached level-12!
It was noon, the most deserted time of the day for the Adventurers Guild.
At this time, the mission had just been updated, and most people were busy fighting with magical beasts. Except for a few unlucky people who did not receive the mission, who would have nothing better to do and waste time in the guild hall?
If a level-12 bandit could be seen at this time, wouldn't there be a chance to see an adventurer above level-15 if the mission was updated?
After walking around the guild hall, he did not see the toothless adventurer called Hank.
Lin Li could not help but be a little puzzled. From his words and deeds along the way, this guy really wanted to pull him into the Silver Hand. Why did he not show up with such a good opportunity today? Could it be that he was delayed by something?
Seeing that it was still early, Lin Li was not in a hurry.
He found a seat and sat down, and waited patiently.
Who knew that they would have to wait for almost two hours?
It wasn't until the afternoon that Lin Li saw this guy rushing into the guild hall.
"Mr Felic!" Hank had just entered the hall when he saw Lin Li sitting there from afar.
Just as Lin Li was about to greet him, he suddenly felt that something was wrong. This guy seemed to be injured. There was a bandage wrapped around his right hand, and there was even a circle of blood on it.
"Injured?"
"It's just a small injury, nothing serious …" Hank smiled, but did not bother about the wound on his hand. He only looked around anxiously before asking carefully, "Oh, yes, Mr Felic, where's your Warrior companion?"
"Warrior companions?" Lin Li was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that he was referring to Sean. "Oh … He had other things to do, so he didn't come out with me."
"Oh …" Hank nodded, and did not ask more about Sean.
After exchanging a few more pleasantries with Lin Li, Hank stood up apologetically and said, "I'm really sorry, Mr Felic. I had planned to come over very early, but I didn't expect that there would be an accident on the way. Now I have to go back to the encampment immediately to report. I'm afraid I don't have time to bring you over today …"
Lin Li smiled indifferently. "It's nothing, business is more important."
"See you another day, Mr Felic."
"See you another day."
Lin Li was not in a hurry to go to the Silver Hand's encampment. Anyway, he had three months. Besides, if he really wanted to go, it would be the same even without Hank's introduction. A level-12 Magic Shooter would be treated as a distinguished guest no matter which mercenary corps he went to. No one would dare to not welcome him.
After watching Hank walk out of the guild hall, Lin Li stood up and gently patted the dust off his Robe of Wrath. He planned to return to the Alanna Guild of Magic first.
"Mr Felic …" But just as he walked to the entrance of the guild hall, he saw Hank turning back. He stood at the bottom of the steps with an abnormally hesitant look on his face. "Mr Felic, you … Do you know Ina?"
"What happened to Ina?" Lin Li's heart suddenly tightened.
"Captain Ina, she … Something happened to her!"
"What?"
As soon as Hank's voice fell, he saw the Magic Caster's expression change. A huge pressure suddenly spread out, and this power was so powerful that Hank, who was in the middle of it, felt as if he could not breathe. Then, he saw that the originally kind and amiable Magic Caster's expression had become extremely ferocious.
"Tell me the whole story!"
One was a level-12 Magic Shooter, and the other was a warrior apprentice. Under Lin Li's pressure, Hank had no room to struggle at all. He swallowed his saliva with difficulty, and told the whole story from beginning to end.
The cause of the matter was a batch of magical crystals.
This morning, when Hank passed by the Thousand Leaves Tavern, he happened to meet a few acquaintances of the Silver Hand, including the new Captain Ina. She had just completed a mission with her subordinates, and was drinking and celebrating in the Thousand Leaves Tavern. After she recognized Hank, she warmly invited him in for a drink or two.
Seeing that it was still early, Hank did not decline, and joined in the celebration.
But just as he was halfway through his drink, an accident suddenly happened.
A group of people from the Ruby Moon Mercenary Corps suddenly barged in, led by a level-nine warrior named Marco. As soon as they rushed into the Thousand Leaves Tavern, they clamored for Ina and the rest to hand over the batch of magical crystals. Otherwise, they would capture all of them and hand them over to the leader of the Ruby Moon Mercenary Corps.
Of course, Ina and the rest refused. After a dispute, a conflict quickly broke out.
The other party had the advantage in numbers, and there was a level-nine warrior making a move. The Silver Hand only had seven or eight people, and the most powerful among them was Ina. The strength of the two parties was not on the same level. When the conflict started, several people from the Silver Hand were injured, including Hank himself.
Seeing that the situation was not right, he took advantage of the chaos to escape.
Hank originally wanted to return to the Silver Hand's base to ask for help, but when he passed by the entrance of the Adventurers Guild, he suddenly remembered the mage he had an appointment with.
He did not know much about the mage's strength, but the monster warrior who was with the mage had left a deep impression on him. That night at the Forest Shade Inn in Blackhills Town, he had seen clearly that the monster warrior had effortlessly killed more than a dozen bandits, including a level-eight warrior.
Moreover, Hank vaguely remembered that the mage called Felic seemed to be on friendly terms with Captain Ina. If he asked for their help, perhaps the chances of saving the people would be higher …
It was only then that Lin Li finally understood why this fella had hurriedly asked about Sean the moment he entered the guild hall. It turned out that this was what he had in mind …
For a moment, Lin Li could not help but feel lucky that this fella had returned. Otherwise, he would not even know what had happened to Ina.
"Bring me there."
"Should I call that Mr. Warrior …" Hank was still a little guilty. After all, he had only seen the strength of the monster warrior that night in Blackhills Town. He did not know that the mage standing in front of him was actually a freak more monstrous than the monster.
"Immediately!"
Lin Li really wanted to give this fella a kick. There was at least an hour's journey between the two guilds. Who knew how much time it would take to go back and forth. By the time he found Sean, it would be too late. Save the f * ck? Save the f * ck!
"…"
Seeing that Lin Li was angry, Hank did not dare to say anything more. He only brought Lin Li to the Thousand Leaves Tavern anxiously.
The Thousand Leaves Tavern was not far from the Adventurers Guild. In addition, Lin Li was eager to save the people, so he used two Hastening Spells — one for himself and the other for Hank. Under the effect of the Hastening Spell, the two of them walked as if they were flying. In just two to three minutes, they arrived outside the Thousand Leaves Tavern.
"Marco, what exactly do you want?"
As soon as they arrived outside the Thousand Leaves Tavern, Lin Li heard a familiar voice coming from inside. It was Ina!
In his anxiety, Lin Li kicked open the door of the tavern. Then, he saw more than 20 adventurers surrounding a team of Silver Hand people.
And among the group of Silver Hand people, there was a figure holding a sharp sword that was very familiar.
"Ina!"
"Mr … Mr Felic?" At this moment, Ina almost thought that she was dreaming. She had never thought that she would be able to see this young mage in Alanna, which was thousands of miles away. Lin Li's appearance evoked countless memories in Ina. She thought of the Sunset Mountains, thought of the Wyvern, thought of Cromwell, and thought of her father who had faced a group of Magic Shooters alone …
"Mr Felic … Daddy … Daddy …" The girl, who was abnormally strong and holding a sharp sword to resist the strong enemy, suddenly burst into tears.
