When the light of the Teleportation Array dissipated, the people who were originally standing in the Teleportation Array were already nowhere to be seen.
Almost at the same time, a Teleportation Array in the central square of Lantis City lit up, and Lin Li, accompanied by Hegel and the others, slowly walked out of the light.
After walking out of the Teleportation Array, Lin Li couldn't help but be astonished at this moment even though he thought that he had seen much of the world.
Although the Octopus Clan lived in the sea, they did not really soak in the water. Only the weak Sea Clan, which was similar to the rural people on the mainland, would live in the water all day long like fish. However, the water vapor in the city was very heavy, and it made some people feel damp. After all, the Sea Clan couldn't live without water.
There was a transparent canopy tens of meters above the head of the underwater city of Lantis, which separated the seawater and the city into two different worlds. Looking up from below, one could even see schools of fish passing by above their heads, which felt like a flock of birds looking at the sky from land.
Some of the buildings in Lantis City were single-story, while others were two or three stories tall. However, they all looked like enlarged conches. The colors of the buildings were also different, and there were even various patterns. The colorful colors made Lin Li feel like he had entered a fairytale world.
The city was decorated with clusters of brightly-colored corals instead of trees that were planted on the mainland. In the eyes of the Sea Clan, the corals should not be valuable, but if they were brought to the mainland, any of them would probably be sold at a sky-high price.
The entire Lantis City was not resplendent and magnificent. Instead, it gave Lin Li a dreamy feeling. Of course, that was also the reason why it was his first time seeing an underwater city. In his original memory, there was only an underwater corridor like the aquarium. Hence, the shock that Lantis City brought him was greater.
Elder Zumar followed Lin Li, and acted as a good tour guide. He said, "The Lantis City of the Octopus Clan can be considered the largest underwater city among the many Sea Clan cities. It's even better than the capital of the Gilded Kingdom, Hopra City."
The entire Lantis City of the Octopus Clan looked exceptionally gorgeous against the backdrop of the seawater, reminding Lin Li of the world he came from and the legendary Crystal Palace of the Dragon King.
Among the seven overlords of the Endless Ocean, the Octopus Clan might not be the most powerful, but the wealth accumulated over countless years was incomparable to the other clans. This could be seen from this Lantis City. It could be said that every piece of construction material had an extremely shocking value.
In addition to precious materials, since the Octopus Clan was a clan rich in inscriptionists, they naturally armed the city with various mageweaths. With Lin Li's eyesight, it was very easy for him to see through the mageweaths. Even the deeply hidden mageweaths could not escape his eyes.
Lin Li did not know what the other places in Lantis City were like, but he could tell that almost every inch of space was filled with mageweaths. However, the strongest mageweath or mageweath array here was only at the Guru-level. Most of them were Master-level mageweaths.
The mageweaths had all kinds of powers, including offensive, defensive, and trap-type mageweaths. Each type of mageweath was definitely highly sought after in the outside world, and could be recorded in the history of inscription. However, given Lin Li's current eyesight, the excellent Master-level mageweaths and even the Guru-level mageweaths did not arouse much interest in him.
The only thing that caught Lin Li's attention was a Guru-level mageweath array that was similar to the Conquering Mageweath of the Sky Castle. It was said that during the heyday of the Octopus Clan, there were more than 20 Gurus of Inscription in the entire clan, and the Guru-level mageweath array was left behind by the 20 Gurus of Inscription.
The Guru-level mageweath array was called the Kingdom of Gods, and just like the Conquering Mageweath, it had the power to greatly increase the strength of its members within a certain range. However, although the name of the Kingdom of Gods seemed to be more resounding than the Conquering Mageweath, its actual effect might only be one-tenth of that of the Conquering Mageweath.
Of course, even so, the Kingdom of Gods mageweath array could definitely be considered a top-notch mageweath array in Anril. The Octopus Clan was the only one that could complete the Kingdom of Gods mageweath array with the help of 20 Gurus of Inscription. If it were other forces, they would not even think about it.
With these mageweaths alone, the city of Lantis was enough to become an impregnable city in the Endless Ocean. Perhaps its functions and power could not be compared to the Sky Castle, but it could definitely be considered a sacred land. Lantis City definitely had a lot to do with the fact that the Octopus Clan could stand tall in the Endless Ocean for countless years, and had always been ranked in the top three among the many Sea Clans.
Under the personal guidance of Great Lord Hegel, Lin Li listened to Elder Zumar's introduction of Lantis City softly while walking towards a large, colorful building opposite the Teleportation Portal that looked like a colorful conch.
The building that looked like a colorful conch could be said to be the political center of Lantis City. Great Lord Hegel and the elders would usually hold meetings there to make various decisions for the Octopus Clan. This time, the strange-looking building had clearly become the venue for the Octopus Clan to welcome Lin Li.
At this moment, there were already many members of the Octopus Clan waiting in line in front of the building, and judging from the clothes they were wearing, they should all be considered influential figures in the Octopus Clan.
Seeing this scene, even Elder Zumar was taken aback. No matter how the welcoming ceremony was in the past, it was all fake. Now that the big shots of the Octopus Clan had come out to welcome Lin Li, it truly reflected the importance that the Octopus Clan attached to Lin Li.
Elder Zumar knew that Lin Li's attainments in inscription were extremely high, but the fact that he could make the Octopus Clan put on such a show was beyond his expectations. After all, he did not know how high Lin Li's attainments in inscription were, and the status of the Octopus Clan in the field of inscription was well known.
Hegel brought Lin Li to the front of the crowd, and began to introduce his clansmen to Lin Li. In the past, Elder Zumar and Saint Edmund had also visited Lantis City before, and some members of the Sea Clan had also introduced them to some of the people who were welcoming them. However, at that time, Elder Zumar still remembered clearly that the tone and attitude of the people who were introducing them and welcoming them were all full of pride and arrogance.
However, this time, when Elder Zumar followed Lin Li over, he discovered that Hegel's tone seemed to be filled with fear and trepidation when he introduced the people to Lin Li. His tone and attitude were completely different from what he remembered.
"Master Felic, this is the Master of Inscription, Josna, who is in charge of the mageweath scrolls of the Octopus Clan. He has done some research on mageweath scrolls," Hegel introduced enthusiastically when he led Lin Li to an old man of the Octopus Clan.
After hearing the introduction, Lin Li simply nodded with a smile on his face, and said, "Hello."
Master Josna is in charge of the mageweath scrolls. What a dull introduction! However, in fact, Zumar knew that Master Josna could be said to be the chief producer of the mageweath scrolls of the Octopus Clan, and his attainments in inscription were definitely top-notch in the Octopus Clan. Master Josna's works would probably cause a bidding frenzy at any auction, and he might even set a new auction record.
Elder Zumar still remembered that when he visited with Saint Edmund the last time, Master Josna did not even show up. In fact, when Saint Edmund mentioned that he wanted to get to know Master Josna, Josna replied disrespectfully, "I'm not free."
When it came to the next person, Hegel smiled, and introduced him to Lin Li. "Master Felic, this is my teacher, the Guru of Inscription, Hakrkro. Many of the mageweaths in Lantis City were created by him, and he has also participated in the drawing of the mageweath array of the Kingdom of the Gods."
"Oh, hello, Master Hakrkro." Lin Li's expression did not change much, and it was as if the person in front of him was no different from the previous ones.
On the other hand, Elder Zumar, who was at the side, was dumbfounded after hearing Great Lord Hegel's introduction. Lin Li might not know the name Hakrkro, but Elder Zumar knew very well that Hakrkro was a legend in the Endless Ocean.
In terms of seniority, the Grand Elder of the Octopus Clan, Hayes, was like a primary school student in front of the Guru of Inscription, Hakrkro. Legend had it that during the period of the Ocean Dynasty, Hakrkro was the chief inscriber of the Ocean Dynasty. After the Ocean Dynasty was overthrown, Hakrkro led the Octopus Clan through countless difficulties in the Ocean War, and eventually became one of the seven overlords.
The most powerful mageweath array in Lantis City of the Octopus Clan, the Kingdom of the Gods, was the work of Hakrkro, who led more than 20 Gurus of Inscription to complete. The completion of the Kingdom of the Gods also made the Octopus Clan's Lantis City an impregnable city.
With Hakrkro's status and identity, even the Illuminati's priest might not be able to see him even if he came to visit. In the past thousands of years, there had been no news of Hakrkro in the Octopus Clan, and people even thought that the famous Guru of Inscription had passed away.
Elder Zumar never thought that he would be lucky enough to meet the Legend of the Octopus Clan with Lin Li's help.
With Great Lord Hegel's introduction, Elder Zumar was surprised by the identities of the people who welcomed him. When he visited with Saint Edmund in the past, the Octopus Clan's welcoming team consisted of only some of the relevant high-level figures, as well as a few famous Masters of Inscription.
However, through Great Monarch Hegel's introduction, Elder Zumar heard one name after another that could be considered as resounding thunder in his ears. They were all famous Masters of Inscription in the Endless Ocean and even in the entire world of Anril. In fact, among them, there were some who had not been heard of for many years, and were once considered legendary by everyone in the outside world.
In front of the powerhouses of the field of inscription, even figures like Saint Edmund could not put on any airs. Elder Zumar always felt inferior to them for no reason. However, Lin Li did not show any special expression here, and simply nodded calmly as a form of greeting.
Faced with Lin Li's attitude, the powerhouses of the Octopus Clan in the field of inscription did not show the slightest dissatisfaction. Although there seemed to be some suspicion in their eyes, no one jumped out to say anything inappropriate.
After some introductions, Hegel led Lin Li and the Masters of Inscription of the Octopus Clan into the colorful conch-shaped building. At this moment, Elder Zumar was already a little muddle-headed, and did not know what he was doing. He simply followed Lin Li instinctively.
Hegel invited Lin Li to Lantis City mainly for the sake of getting some pointers from Lin Li, and Lin Li did not want to waste too much time there. Hence, the two of them soon got to the main topic after some pleasantries.
The Masters of Inscription of the Octopus Clan had long received the news that Hegel had sent back. Although many of them might not really believe that Lin Li, the human inscriber, really had such high attainments in inscription, they had already prepared a lot of questions.
Most of the Masters of Inscription of the Octopus Clan had reached a bottleneck in the study of inscription for some reason, so they had plenty of questions about inscription. For example, the Guru of Inscription, Hakrkro, had been a Guru for thousands of years, but there had been no improvement in inscription for a long time. If Hakrkro could break through the bottleneck, his attainments in inscription would probably soon reach the peak of the Guru-level, and he might even get a glimpse of the mysteries of the Divine Smith's domain.
However, Lin Li was not there to give a lecture on inscription. There were so many Masters of Inscription in the Octopus Clan, and if he were to answer questions one by one, it would probably take him at least three to five months to finish. Hence, when the people of the Octopus Clan were about to start asking Lin Li for various questions under the instructions of Great Monarch Hegel, Lin Li reached out and stopped them without standing on ceremony.
Seeing Lin Li's actions, Elder Zumar, who had just snapped back to his senses, once again fell into a state of confusion. This President Felic is really daring. He actually doesn't give the powerhouses of inscription any face at all!
Lin Li then looked at the back of his seat, only to see that there was a blank wall that should be used to hang things like maps in some councils. He stood up while everyone looked at him in bewilderment, walked to the front of the wall, and reached out to take out a crystal inscription pen. He then began drawing on the wall directly.
Lin Li drew the mageweath very quickly, and by the time the people below reacted, he had already put away his pen and walked towards Great Monarch Hegel. He said, "Okay, if they have any questions, they can go there and find them themselves. Let's talk about the matter of the Inscribers going to the Tower of Dusk.
