There seemed to be some kind of magical power in this old voice. It was as if an invisible hand had grabbed Aeron's throat. The incantation he was chanting was stuck in his throat, and for a moment, he couldn't spit out even half a syllable. The immense pressure and the surging magical elements seemed to vanish without a trace in the blink of an eye.
The fallen leaves that filled the sky floated down, and the forest returned to its previous tranquility.
Everyone's gaze fell in the direction of the voice.
Then, they saw a skinny old man walking out from the bushes. He looked to be in his sixties or seventies, and his face was full of wrinkles. He was wearing a gray mage robe that was wrinkled and dirty, as if it had not been washed for decades. When he walked out of the forest, almost everyone could smell the strong smell of medicine coming from his body …
As the old man walked closer, Lin Li's eyes lit up.
"How are you? Are you hurt?" The old man's expression was full of concern.
Lin Li's heart warmed, and a smile appeared on his face. "It's nothing, I was just scared …"
"Master Andoine, what do you mean?" Aeron's face was as pale as a sheet, as if he had just suffered from a serious illness. This was the result of the bite of mana. It was not as easy to interrupt a level-15 spell as it was for a low-level spell. Even though he was a high-level Archmage, he had to use all his strength to control the chaotic mana.
As soon as Aeron said that, there were a few gasps from the surroundings.
Apart from Lin Li, almost everyone was stunned.
They had never thought that this slovenly old man would be one of the six Legendary-mages of the Felan Kingdom — Andoine of the Jarrosus Guild of Magic!
Mason's gaze was dull. He had heard many stories about this Legendary-mage since he was young, but he had never thought that one day, such a legendary figure would be standing in front of him. Moreover, it seemed that he had a close relationship with his roommate …
At this moment, even Orrin's face showed some excitement. Among the mages of the Felan Kingdom, who had not heard of Andoine's name?
As for Matthias's two roommates, they were completely dumbfounded from shock …
They never thought that the guy named Felic would even know a Legendary-mage, and it seemed that they had a close relationship.
He didn't know what was wrong with him just now. He thought that with Aeron's support, he wouldn't have to be afraid of anything. He actually foolishly ran out to help Matthias, and now he was in trouble … He also had a backer, and it was a Legendary-level backer!
I'm done for … I'm dead for sure this time.
Actually, he was just scaring himself …
Andoine had no time to pay attention to them now. His eyes were fixed on Aeron.
"You still dare to ask me what I mean?" Andoine's voice was full of anger. If he had not arrived just now, Aeron would have blasted Felic with a level-15 spell.
How could an Archmage resist the wrath of a Legendary-mage? As soon as Andoine finished his sentence, a huge pressure had already covered the entire clearing in the forest. Under the pressure of the powerful mental strength, Aeron's face became even paler than a piece of white paper.
"Master … Master Andoine …" Aeron did not expect the old man to fall out with him without giving his father any face at all. Looking at the endless magical elements surging up, Aeron was dumbfounded. He could not understand the background of this young mage named Felic. How could he make Andoine so angry?
He was too familiar with the look on Andoine's face. When Bathrilor returned from Jarrosus, he had the same look on his face. Aeron was very clear that this level of anger would only appear when a loved one was hurt. Could it be that this Felic and Andoine …
"Let me tell you, this is what I mean!"
An incomparably large amount of Mana was suddenly released.
How could Aeron resist the power of the Legendary-level? With a scream, the middle-aged man was sent flying, and then crashed into a tree with a bang.
The force of the collision was so strong that even the giant tree, which was so thick that it would take two people to wrap their arms around it, could not help but shake a few times. Lying on the ground, Aeron felt as if his whole body had been smashed apart. His mind was blank, and all he could hear was a constant buzzing sound. Just as he was struggling to get up, he suddenly felt a warm current gushing from his chest, and then he spat out a mouthful of blood …
"Now, do you know what I mean?" After severely injuring Aeron with the Instant Repelling Spell, Andoine did not intend to stop. As he spoke, he slowly approached Aeron who was under the tree with a murderous look in his eyes.
Seeing Andoine approaching him step by step, Aeron only felt a surge of fear in his heart.
Now he knew that this old fellow was not joking. He would really kill him …
"Andoine, you … you can't kill me!"
"Why can't I? Just because of your father, Aldwin? Hmph, I'll get even with that old fellow sooner or later. The person I asked him to take good care of was almost killed by his precious son! "
Seeing that Andoine was really going to make a move from afar, Lin Li could not help but be shocked. He really did not expect the old fellow to be so angry.
Lin Li walked up helplessly, intending to persuade Andoine.
After all, Aeron was Aldwin's son. If he really killed him, it might bring some trouble to Andoine. Anyway, he did not suffer any loss, and only suffered a little shock. There was no need to make things so serious …
Lin Li was about to speak when he suddenly heard a gust of wind coming from above.
Puzzled, he looked up and saw Macklin flying towards him at an extremely fast speed with the help of the Levitation Spell. While maintaining his flying speed, he shouted, "Master Andoine, can you give me some face?"
"Why is it you, idiot?"
Being called "idiot" made Macklin feel very aggrieved. In the Alanna Guild of Magic, it was always him who called others idiots. When had he ever been called that? But facing Andoine, he did not dare to refute at all. After descending from the sky, he had to smile obsequiously. "Heh heh … Who asked me to be lucky enough to become your student's trial mentor …"
Andoine looked at him suspiciously. "You, idiot, are actually Felic's trial mentor?"
"Of course, ask your student if you don't believe me." Anyway, Macklin was thick-skinned. Being called an idiot by the old fellow, he just treated it as a mosquito bite. After forcing himself to admit it, he smiled obsequiously and cautiously persuaded, "Why don't you let this kid go for Aldwin's sake …"
"If it's for Aldwin's sake, it's not impossible …" Andoine nodded. To be honest, he did not want to fall out with Aldwin. After all, Aldwin was a level-21 legendary mage and the president of the Alanna Guild of Magic. Although he was not afraid of him, it was not very interesting to really make a feud with him.
After a little hesitation, Andoine's gaze fell on Macklin again. "However, there is one thing that I am not at ease about. What if he goes to trouble Felic after I let him go?"
"I promise, absolutely not!" Macklin glared at Aeron fiercely. He really could not understand how a person like Aldwin could have such a stupid son.
Who was Felic? In addition to being Andoine's disciple, he was also the hope of the Alanna Guild of Magic. The magical weapons he forged were directly related to Highlord Osric's mausoleum. Even I can't bear to say a harsh word to him. Aeron, on the other hand, wants to kill as soon as you come up. Damn it, go ahead and kill. Let's see if your father Aldwin will beat you to death after you kill Felic …
"What guarantee do you have?"
"Listen to me slowly …" Macklin pulled Andoine to a secluded corner. Then, he slowly talked about Lin Li's forging talent, and the bet between the Guild of Magic and the Adventurers Guild.
It took a full ten minutes to explain the ins and outs of the matter.
"In short, you can rest assured that today was just an accident. Hurting Felic? Not to mention me, even Aldwin would never allow Aeron to act so recklessly! "Finally, Macklin concluded with such a sentence.
"Intermediate … Intermediate blacksmith?" Andoine glanced at Lin Li from afar, and the expression on his face seemed a little strange. He really wanted to ask if there was anyone more monstrous than him in this world.
An unprecedented magic genius, a master-level pharmacist, and now an intermediate blacksmith?
Apart from having children, what else could this kid not do …
