He could already feel that the pressure in this space was rapidly increasing. Who knew when his small body would explode from the pressure.
Lin Li naturally also felt the changes in the space. Clearly, the dragon corpse outside had almost recovered, and its strength was probably not much different from how it was at the beginning. Besides, due to the stimulation of the power of the seal, the dragon corpse's combat power was probably stronger than at the beginning.
Fortunately, Lin Li quickly set up his own settings, and immediately took out a few magic materials from the Ring of Endless Storm to repair the seal. As several types of magic materials were added to the seal, the Seal Array formed by the four Guru-level mageweath arrays finally began to operate smoothly.
At the same time, the 12 Alchemy Arrays that Angelano had repaired also began to operate under the influence of the Seal Array. The mana that was emitting light quickly filled the entire Seal Array through the mana circuit, causing the light of the entire Seal Array to become increasingly intense.
Lin Li, who had completed the last step of the repair, did not even look at the changes in the seal at this moment, and simply flashed to Angelano's side. Without hesitation, he picked up Angelano and was about to leave the space immediately. However, just as Lin Li was about to leave, he found an ancient-looking notebook under Angelano's butt.
However, Lin Li couldn't be bothered to study the notebook now, and he only saw a name vaguely written on it — Collins. He seemed to have something to do with the Gilded Kingdom. Due to the fact that the power of the dragon corpse was sealed, he could not use the power of the Space Robe. Hence, he had no choice but to carry Angelano and wrap himself in the Domain World before flying away from the seal like a cannonball.
Behind Lin Li, the mana in the space began to boil, causing a large vortex to appear at the bottom of the sea. The vortex was continuously expanding towards the surroundings, as if there was a bottomless hole at the bottom of the sea. Even with Lin Li's strength, he could feel the huge attraction from the seal in the process of leaving quickly.
Lin Li couldn't help but feel a lingering fear. If he hadn't left in time, he would probably have been sealed here forever like the dragon corpse even if he hadn't been crushed by that force. He did not doubt this at all. After all, the seal could even seal such a powerful dragon corpse. He reckoned that unless he could become a god, he would not be able to break the seal even if he reached the peak of the Sanctuary-realm.
At this moment, an unbelievable scene took place on the battlefield above Cage Island. The dragon corpse, which was about to swallow the heavily injured Elvis and the others, suddenly let out a deafening roar. The sound waves of the roar even caused Elvis and the others to vomit blood. However, the dragon carcass did not erupt. Instead, they saw the dragon carcass twisting and struggling in the air as if it had gone mad, as if it was trying to break free from an invisible rope.
At the same time, there were also shocking changes on Cage Island below the battlefield. The surface of the sea around the island seemed to be boiling like a boiling pot, and it gradually spun around the island, forming a huge vortex with Cage Island as the center. As the giant vortex continued to rotate, a powerful rotational airflow gradually struck the sky from the bottom up, as if it was going to drag the entire sky into the vortex.
Faced with such a situation, Elder Zumar and the others did not dare to delay, and hurriedly exerted all their power to flee into the distance. After all, they were not bound by the power of the seal. Hence, although their strength was far inferior to that of the dragon corpse, it was not as difficult for them to escape.
Only when they felt that they had completely gotten rid of the influence of the vortex did they finally stop, and turn around to look at the dragon corpse in shock. The domineering and overbearing dragon corpse was now like a pitiful bird that had been caught in a net, constantly trying to break free from the invisible net. Below, the momentum of the giant vortex was also getting more and more terrifying. The surface of the sea had sunk deeply, and the reefs under Cage Island that had been covered by the seawater were all exposed. It even gave them the illusion that they could see the bottom of the sea.
"W-what the hell is going on!?" Although Elder Zumar's task was to reinforce the seal, he had never seen what the seal looked like when it was really in full force. Hence, he was full of bewilderment when faced with this scene. He was well aware that the seal had already been destroyed, and he had never heard of a broken seal that could automatically recover. In that case, would they still need to reinforce it from time to time?
Of course, Zumar also thought of Lin Li, who had disappeared from the battlefield, but as soon as that thought arose, it was instantly extinguished. The seal under Cage Island was also set up by the ancestors of the Gilded Kingdom, and Zumar did not think that the young president of the Tower of Dusk had the ability to repair the seal.
It was already unbelievable that such a young man could step into the Sanctuary-realm. Even if he had started learning magic while he was still in his mother's womb, it had only been more than 20 years since then. Even if he spent all his time studying magic, it would still be an incredibly short period of time. Most mages were only Archmages at most at his age, and were still infinitely far from the Sanctuary-realm.
Zumar had to admit that Lin Li's magical talent was unprecedented and would never be matched by anyone in the future. If Lin Li had learned inscription in addition to magic, and even reached the level where he could repair the seal, Zumar really suspected that this guy named Felic might be a deity who had descended to toy with him.
However, Elvis and the others immediately thought of Lin Li, and there was almost no doubt about it. To them, Lin Li was already a powerhouse whose status had vaguely surpassed that of the Ashen Warlock. No matter what incredible things had happened to him, they would take it for granted.
This kind of blind trust could even be said to be a little close to worship. Elvis and the others had unknowingly raised Lin Li's position in their hearts infinitely. It was an exaggeration to say that if he continued to develop further, Elvis and the others might really become Lin Li's believers, just like how the believers of Holy Light believed in Holy Light.
At this moment, a figure suddenly shot out from the bottom of the sea like a cannonball in the relatively calm sea in the distance. The figure was none other than Lin Li, who was still holding Angelano in his hand. After emerging from the bottom of the sea, he did not leave to return to the Sky Castle, and instead quietly watched the dragon corpse struggle like Zumar and the others.
Seeing Lin Li emerge from the bottom of the sea, Zumar immediately looked as if he had seen a ghost, and had an extremely incredulous expression on his face. Why did that kid emerge from the bottom of the sea? Could it be that the seal under Cage Island was really repaired by that kid!? That was a method that the ancestors had used in order to save the Gilded Kingdom. How could it be repaired by such a young kid!?
Even though the seal had been repaired and the dragon corpse had been resealed, it should be a very perfect result for Elder Zumar's task. However, Elder Zumar was unwilling to believe that the seal would be repaired by a young man like Lin Li. In Elder Zumar's opinion, even the current Lord of the Illuminati would not be able to repair the seal, let alone a young man like Lin Li.
However, apart from that, Elder Zumar could not think of any other explanation for why Lin Li would emerge from the bottom of the sea, and why he would come out when the seal suddenly exerted its power again. However, no matter what, when Elder Zumar looked at Lin Li in the distance, he couldn't help but be a little more wary, and he had already labeled Lin Li as a powerful opponent.
At this moment, the powerful dragon corpse began to slowly fall to Cage Island below while struggling desperately. In the beginning, the speed of its descent was still very slow, but it gradually became faster and faster. In the end, it fell straight into the crack on Cage Island like a meteor, and only a roar of anger and despair came from the crack.
Next, Cage Island, which had already cracked open, began to gradually close up, and in the end, even the trace of the crack disappeared. At the same time, the large vortex formed on the surface of the sea also began to rotate slower and slower until it completely returned to its original state. Only the natural wind and waves would be stirred up from time to time.
"President Felic, it's really all thanks to your help this time. Otherwise, I'm afraid this dragon corpse would have really broken free from the seal." Elder Zumar finally snapped back to his senses when Lin Li approached him. While secretly suppressing the shock and bewilderment in his heart, he thanked Lin Li seemingly sincerely.
Lin Li did not look smug at all, and instead calmly said, "Elder Zumar, don't be so polite. I hope the Gilded Kingdom can fulfill the previous agreement as soon as possible."
Hearing Lin Li's words, Elder Zumar couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth. Clearly, he was trying his best to remain calm. Although he did not know what terms Cantory and the forces of the Breezy Plains had negotiated, he could imagine that the price they had to pay was definitely not small. After all, the forces of the Breezy Plains did not have a good relationship with the Gilded Kingdom, and now that they were asked to take the risk to provide assistance, the greedy fellows definitely wouldn't take action without paying a satisfactory price.
However, what really made Elder Zumar's heart ache was the losses that the Gilded Kingdom had suffered in this battle. Although Cantory was a special envoy, there was a limit to what he could command. Elder Zumar, who was well aware of that, did not take it to heart. However, the series of fierce battles on Cage Island had really made the Gilded Kingdom pay a huge price. More than 10 alchemical battleships had sunk, and the others had been damaged to varying degrees. Not to mention, many elites had died there.
Such a loss could no longer be measured with money. The alchemical battleships were not something that could be built with money. Each alchemical battleship was the culmination of the wisdom and sweat of countless people in the Gilded Kingdom, and would take at least nearly 10 years to complete. With the national power of the Gilded Kingdom, they could at most build two to three alchemical battleships at the same time, and that was under the condition that they had sufficient materials and did not need time to accumulate them. After all, the Gilded Kingdom was overseas, and some resources were still rather scarce. Hence, it would take a long time to accumulate enough materials to build an alchemical battleship. In other words, this battle had directly caused the national power that the Gilded Kingdom had accumulated for hundreds of years to go up in smoke.
When the dragon corpse wreaked havoc in the Gilded Kingdom back then, it had caused an extremely heavy blow to the Gilded Kingdom, and almost destroyed the entire fleet of the Gilded Kingdom. After so many years of accumulation, the scale of the fleet of the Gilded Kingdom was still incomparable to that of the past. Hence, it was obvious how massive the losses were back then. However, the Gilded Kingdom had now lost more than 10 alchemical battleships, which could definitely be considered a huge setback in the Gilded Kingdom's national power.
Besides, there was also the loss of talents that made Elder Zumar's heart ache. He had never thought that the team would suffer such a loss here after making it all the way to the Blackwater Swamp and the Levidan Canyon without a single casualty. Those talents were all elites that the Gilded Kingdom and the Illuminati had painstakingly nurtured. Although it was extremely difficult to step into the Sanctuary-realm, no one could be sure that none of those who died here would be able to step into the Sanctuary-realm in the future. Even if the Sanctuary-realm was still a little ethereal, it was still not easy to nurture a Legendary powerhouse, and a large amount of resources would be required to nurture one.
Compared to the losses in these battles, Elder Zumar did not care about the rewards that the Gilded Kingdom had to pay to the forces of the Breezy Plains. After all, the things that were given out could be taken back one day, but the things that were destroyed by death could never be taken back no matter what.
Under the influence of the seal, the entire space where Cage Island was located almost became a magical vacuum zone, and a large amount of magical elements were sucked into the depths of Cage Island along with the dragon corpse. As the dragon corpse was resealed, the surroundings of Cage Island gradually returned to peace, and a large amount of magical elements also surged over from all directions like a tidal wave, filling the void in this space.
Cantory, who had been nervously watching the situation of the battlefield from the periphery, finally heaved a huge sigh of relief at this moment. However, he immediately thought of the terrifying power displayed by the young president of the Tower of Dusk and the Sky Castle hanging above his head, and the joy in his heart was immediately reduced by more than half.
Although the assistance of the Tower of Dusk and the various forces played a very crucial role in this operation, it also made Cantory see the difficulties that the Gilded Kingdom would face in the Breezy Plains in the future.
