After comforting Mason, Lin Li turned around and smiled apologetically at the two Magic Shooters. "I'm sorry, both of you. This is my friend. He came to me for an urgent matter, which is why he violated the guild's rules."
"So it's Mage Felic's friend …" The two Magic Shooters were here every day. How could they not know the background of this young man in front of them? This was the person who had defeated Macklin in the arena, and the youngest Archmage in the history of the Alanna Guild of Magic. They had even heard from several Archmages that this Felic's achievements in the future would definitely be above Gryffindor's!
Since he had already apologized, how would the two Magic Shooters dare not to give him face? They quickly put on a smile, and explained to Lin Li apologetically, "I'm sorry, Mage Felic. We really didn't know he was your friend at first. You also know the guild's rules. We had no choice but to do this. Please don't take it to heart, Mage Felic …"
"Understood, understood …" How could Lin Li not know what the two Magic Shooters were thinking? He could not help but find it funny at that moment. He was not Matthias, so why would he take such things to heart? He smiled and brought Orrin to the side.
"Big Brother Mason, speak clearly. What happened to Orrin?"
"Something big happened to the gigolo!" Mason said while panting. "When I woke up in the morning, I found out that you had already come to the Omniscient Tower. I discussed with the gigolo, and decided to go to the arena to practice. To be honest, I learned a very powerful magic recently, and wanted to try it out with him. I didn't expect to meet Gryffindor and his companion when I just arrived at the arena …"
"Gryffindor?" Lin Li's heart skipped a beat when he heard that name. He remembered clearly that when they first came to Alanna, the two of them got into a fight as soon as they met. If not for the fact that there were many people in the guild hall watching, they might have gotten into a fight on the spot.
Now that they met in the arena, how could it be anything good?
"Yes, that Gryffindor." Mason gnashed his teeth. "That bastard is really asking for a beating. Every time he sees a gigolo, he would mock and ridicule him, saying that trash is trash. After not seeing him for a few years, he still has the strength of a Magic Shooter. To think that I used to regard him as my only opponent. F * ck, it's fine if he scolds a gigolo, but why did he scold me too? So what if I'm a Magic Shooter? Are Magic Shooters not human?"
"…" Lin Li rolled his eyes. It was really hard to get used to Mason's jumping train of thought. "And then?"
"Then, the gigolo got excited …" Mason said, and he couldn't help but show some doubts. "To be honest, this is really strange. It's not like you don't know the gigolo. He's not very likable. He acts like someone owes him a lot of money, but when did you see him getting excited? You didn't see the scene at that time. The gigolo's eyes were red. When he stared at that bastard Gryffindor, it was as if he wanted to bite him to death … "
"So serious?" Lin Li was a little confused.
Indeed, Lin Li knew that these two people had a feud. But why was Orrin so agitated? In the past month or so, the two of them had met many times. Although they ignored each other, they had never shed all pretense of cordiality like today. Could it be that something happened in the past few days that he didn't know about?
"He was just that agitated …" Mason sighed as he spoke. "In the beginning, I could still hold the gigolo back. But later, I don't know what Gryffindor said to him, but the gigolo went berserk on the spot. I couldn't hold him back no matter how hard I tried, so I hit him with a Chilling Touch …"
"What the hell …"
Lin Li had a headache. What was wrong with Orrin? How could he be so silly to attack Gryffindor? Gryffindor was an Archmage now. When they met in the guild hall a few days ago, Lin Li knew that this guy's strength was unfathomable. Even Lin Li might not have the confidence to win against Gryffindor, let alone Orrin who had not broken through to level-14.
This was bad …
"How is Orrin now?"
"He was hit by a Flame Blast, and has been sent to the emergency room …"
"Damn it, Gryffindor, you have guts!" Lin Li gritted his teeth. "Let's go, bring me to see Orrin."
"Yes …"
When the two of them hurried down from the Omniscient Tower and rushed to the guild's medical room, they saw the unconscious Orrin lying on the hospital bed. His face, which was usually pale, was now as white as a sheet. When Lin Li stood outside the medical room, he even faintly sensed the aura of death.
Beside the bed, Macklin was pacing back and forth anxiously, and his mouth was cursing indecently.
"Damn it, you bunch of idiots. What's the use of the guild keeping you? I asked you to find a Priest, but you can't even find one?"
"Mr Macklin, I've already looked for one, but … but …" The two apprentices stood there trembling and stammering as they tried to explain. "But, Alanna only has one Priest, Bishop Ryan. He went back to the Brilliance Shrine last month to report on his duties …"
"Damn it, Ryan, that idiot. When I don't want to see him, he's always running around in front of you, saying that God loves the world. Love your mother, I need you now, and you actually went back to the Brilliance Shrine. Damn it, if you have the guts, stay in the Brilliance Shrine forever and never come back, or else I'll teach you a lesson …"
"The old man's temper is getting worse …" Lin Li muttered softly, and then gently pushed the door open.
"Felic, you're finally here …" Macklin let out a long sigh of relief when he saw Lin Li enter. He was clear about the kid's abilities. If there was anyone else other than the Priest's theurgy who could save Orrin, it would be him.
"Why are you so angry?"
"It's all because of this bunch of idiots. They can't even do such a small thing. Damn it, Gryffindor, I'm not done with him this time. If Orrin dies in the Guild of Magic, how am I going to face his teacher in the future? Hurry up and think of a way to save his life first. "
"Let me see …" Lin Li nodded his head. He sat down in front of Orrin's bed, and took a closer look at the injury on his back.
After taking a look, Lin Li immediately frowned.
The damage caused by the Pyroblast was not that serious. Although his back was a mess of flesh and blood, it did not really hurt Orrin's internal organs. What really made Orrin step into the gates of hell seemed to be another kind of force. When Lin Li sat down in front of the bed, he could clearly see that there seemed to be wisps of black mist drifting away from the mess of flesh and blood …
When Lin Li saw the wisps of black mist, he immediately knew that he was in big trouble.
He remembered that when he was in Jarrosus, Lin Li had seen the same thing on McGrenn.
But this time, Orrin's situation was much more serious.
Yes, this was the power of the curse.
Back then, McGrenn was afflicted with the Sleeping Curse, which could only be considered as a medium power among the many kinds of curses. A bottle of Dispelling Potion could cure 80% of it. But for the current Orrin, not to mention a bottle of Dispelling Potion, even 10 bottles would not work.
This time, Lin Li really had a headache.
Although he was proficient in pharmaceutics, he was not an expert in curses.
This time, he could not even tell what kind of curse Orrin was afflicted with. He could only barely judge from the wisps of black mist that Orrin's situation was far more serious than McGrenn's.
"For the time being, his life is not in danger …" Lin Li shook his head, and stood up from the chair. His expression was a little solemn. "But the situation is very bad. We may have to find someone to help …"
"Find who?" Macklin looked anxious. "I'll get someone to look for him right away."
"Wait for this first …" After Lin Li finished speaking, he took out a glass bottle from his pocket, and passed it to Mason. "Brother Mason, help me get a glass of water, and dilute this bottle of potion. Then, let Orrin drink it three times, with an hour interval between each time. Remember, don't let him drink it too early, or else his body will not be able to take it."
"Alright." Mason nodded his head, took the glass bottle from Lin Li's hand, and went to look for water.
After thinking about it, Lin Li took out a crystal card from his pocket. "Mr Macklin, can you find someone to help me make a trip to Glittergold Bank?"
"Why do you want to go to Glittergold Bank?" Macklin was stunned.
"To find someone." Lin Li passed the crystal card to him. "Find an apprentice, and ask him to take this crystal card to any Glittergold Bank. Tell him that Felic has something to ask Mr Hoffman for, and is waiting for him at the Guild of Magic."
"Alright …" Macklin took the crystal card, and went to look for someone anxiously. To be honest, he really did not believe that this crystal card would be able to get Hoffman to come. But, forget it, he had to make every possible effort. If even this fella could not save Orrin, then Orrin would really die in the Alanna Guild of Magic this time.
After walking for a short distance, Macklin stopped again. "Then, what are you going to do?"
"I'm going to look for someone too. The curse on Orrin's body is too strong. I have to find a priest to help."
"Priest? That old bastard, Rene, has already returned to the Brilliance Shrine. What f * cking priest is there in Alanna … "
"I'll explain it to you when I'm back …" Lin Li said, and hurriedly left the medical room.
After coming out of the guild hall, Lin Li quickly called for a carriage, and went straight to the Dawn Cathedral. That was the only church of the Brilliance Shrine in Alanna. If Lin Li did not remember wrongly, Archbishop Englos had told him that if he needed any help in the coming month, he could look for him there.
"Damn it, I owe two favors at once. Gryffindor, I'm not done with you!"
