"So fast …" Lin Li mumbled softly. To be honest, Moke's visit had surprised him. He had planned to visit that old faker Basel in Doland when he had time today. The old faker had promised to help him recruit a batch of strong mages. This old faker was very cunning. If he did not urge him, who knew when he would change his mind …
Oh yes, there was also the old faker himself. This fella was a real Legendary-mage. If he could really pull him into the Guild of Magic, he would not have to worry about anyone posing a threat to him for at least a year and a half.
Hence, Lin Li called Norfeller and Ujfalusi early in the morning, and prepared to bring them to Doland's library.
Who knew that before he could even wash his face, he would be blocked by Moke at the door …
"President Felic, do you want to go take a look now?" Moke's expression was not good. Asking a Master of Inscription to set up 10 Wards of Bad Luck was a very humiliating thing in itself. He did not expect that after he reluctantly helped him set it up, Moke would actually ask "so fast". Wasn't this clearly doubting his professional standards?
Moke really held it in before he suppressed the urge to scold him. But when he spoke again, his tone was obviously stiffer.
"Then let's go take a look …" Unfortunately, Lin Li was having a headache now. When would he find time to go to Doland? The mages under Basel were the only strength he could rely on now. If he messed this up, his days in the Breezy Plains would definitely not be good.
So much so that he did not even notice that Moke's tone had become stiffer. Of course, with Lin Li's character, even if he noticed it, he would most likely not take it to heart. They were not related in any way, so why should he please him? What, you said you're a Master of Inscription? F * ck, I'm a Guru of Inscription …
Lin Li was racking his brains as he followed Moke out of Black Clouds Town. When he stood at the entrance of the town, he could already see the outline of the tower. The towering tower was covered in magic runes, and under the illumination of the morning sun, it revealed a mysterious and solemn aura. The short Herza was standing in front of the gate of the tower, chatting with a few engineers as he raised his head to look at the entrance of the town.
"Morning, Mr. Herza."
"Morning, Mage Felic … Oh no no no no, I should call you President Felic now …"
Herza welcomed the two of them into the tower with a face full of smiles. As he joked, he introduced a few engineers to Lin Li. These engineers were sent by the Supreme Council. Out of the 24 Guilds of Magic in the Felan Kingdom, at least 20 of their towers were built by them. Although they were not very strong in magic, they would be courteously received by the presidents of the major guilds wherever they went.
Lin Li was no exception. He was indeed rather polite to these engineers. Of course, it was not only because of their status, but also because they had fulfilled his requirements. When the construction of the tower started, Herza had asked Lin Li what specific requirements he had for the tower. At that time, Lin Li did not think too much about it, and made seven or eight requests. Now that he thought about it, he suddenly realized that these requirements were rather harsh.
Lin Li had thought that the engineers would be scolded, but when the construction of the tower was completed, Lin Li suddenly realized that the requests he had made back then were carried out by the engineers meticulously. Lin Li was still a little embarrassed to this day …
Actually, this was not strange …
This time, the engineers sent by the Supreme Council were all people who focused on the field of architecture. Their personalities were a little weird. When they heard those requests, the first thought that popped up in the engineers' minds was not "this fella is making fun of me", but "this fella is so daring!".
It was always easier for daring people to win the favor of others. Moreover, Lin Li was definitely young and promising no matter how one looked at it. He was the most outstanding young mage among the 24 Guilds of Magic, the final winner of the finals in the Aurora Square, and had the power of an Archmage at such a young age. Now, he was appointed as the President of the Breezy Plains Guild of Magic. This was the youngest President of a Guild of Magic in 1,300 years. Furthermore, he had a unique understanding of architecture. Such a person was naturally someone the engineers would be happy to get to know.
Herza only made a few casual introductions, and everyone started chatting familiarly. The harmonious atmosphere was like old friends who had not seen each other for a long time. Moke, who was at the side, could not help but mutter, "When did this fella become a social butterfly? Why is he able to chat with these bad-tempered and stubborn engineers the first time we meet? "
Actually, this was not strange. Although Lin Li was not very proficient in architecture, as the saying went, "Even if you have not eaten pork, you should have seen a pig run, right?" For Lin Li, who was proficient in five Life Skills, it was not difficult for him to chat with the engineers. The knowledge in his head was enough for him to handle any situation. He could even use the five Life Skills he had mastered as a foundation to give some suggestions that would make the engineers' eyes light up …
In short, no matter what Moke muttered, Lin Li had indeed built up a friendship with the engineers in a very short period of time. One of the engineers, Lucin, even promised on the spot that if the tower of the Breezy Plains needed any remodeling, he would be willing to help anytime and anywhere.
"F * ck …" Moke instantly opened his mouth wide. He simply did not dare to believe what he had heard. These engineers were famous in the Supreme Council for being bad-tempered and stubborn. Other than a few people, no one could order them around. Even if the presidents of the major guilds wanted to ask for their help, they had to ask nicely. As for whether they were willing to help in the end, it mostly depended on their mood …
Moke completely did not think that these bad-tempered and stubborn fellows would actually take care of this Felic so much. Even before the other party had mentioned it, they had already taken the initiative to promise to help.
The group chatted as they entered the guild hall. In the center of the guild hall, the engineers had placed a huge crystal ball according to Lin Li's request. The crystal ball had already been enchanted with three spells. These three spells were the Warlock's Eyes, the Mirror of Truth, and the Magic Illusion. The design of this crystal ball was similar to that of the Emerald Tower. They both used the Magic Illusion to connect to the Warlock's Eyes. Through this crystal ball, Lin Li, who was in the tower, could clearly see every single movement that was hundreds of miles away.
Of course, there were actually some small differences between the two. That Mirror of Truth was added by Lin Li on purpose. In order to add another Mirror of Truth in addition to the two enchanted spells, the engineers could be said to have racked their brains. But now that they saw the effect, they felt that their initial efforts had paid off.
The Mirror of Truth was only a level-six spell, and most mages could easily master it. But when it was enchanted on the crystal ball and received the support of the tower's own mana source, the effect immediately had an earth-shattering change. The effect of the level-six spell, the Mirror of Truth, only had a radius of tens of meters. It was specially used to deal with invisibility effects, such as the Invisibility of mages, or the Stealth of high-level bandits. For mages, this was basically a method to prevent assassinations. But when its effective range was expanded to hundreds of meters, it was another matter. The Mirror of Truth would cover the entire tower, and anyone who had ill intentions would immediately reveal their true form on the crystal ball …
"Such guts …" After seeing this crystal ball with his own eyes, even Moke could not help but secretly admire this Felic's guts. Enchantment of two spells on a crystal ball had long been a custom among mages. This did not mean that mages were unwilling to enchant more spells, but the ability of the crystal ball to withstand magical elements was ultimately limited. Every additional trace of magical elements would increase the risk of failure. Even if it was only a level-six spell, it would still require thousands of attempts before it could succeed. A crystal ball easily cost hundreds of thousands of gold coins. Who would be so free to go against an astronomical figure of gold coins?
But Moke did not realize that this crystal ball in front of him was actually not completely the same as those he had seen before …
There might not be any difference at first glance, but if one were to observe carefully, they would realize that the color of this crystal ball was slightly deeper than the average, and the brightness was also slightly higher. But these differences were not very obvious. Actually, as long as Moke stretched out his hand to touch it, he would immediately realize that this crystal ball actually carried a trace of warmth when he touched it …
But even if Moke stretched out his hand to touch it, he would most likely only feel that it was a little strange. After all, things like Psionic Crystals were not something that everyone could recognize. In fact, not only Moke, even those engineers who personally placed the crystal ball only knew that this crystal ball was a little strange. As for what exactly was strange, they could not say. After all, they were only good at architecture, and they were somewhat amateurs towards magical crystals.
Among so many people present, perhaps only Lin Li knew why this crystal ball could be enchanted with three spells.
Because … this crystal ball was taken out by Lin Li himself!
When the tower had just started construction, Herza had reminded Lin Li that it was best to place a crystal ball in the tower. This way, it would be very convenient to monitor all the movements in the surroundings. When he heard this, Lin Li almost immediately thought of the Psionic Crystal in the Ring of Endless Storm. Its incomparably powerful magical amplification ability, and its far more outstanding elemental holding characteristics than ordinary crystals. No matter which aspect it was, it determined that it was the best choice for a crystal ball.
But, Lin Li was not satisfied …
How could monitoring the range of the tower compare to monitoring the entire Black Clouds Town?
"Oh yes, Mr Moke, can you do me a small favor?" Lin Li looked around the crystal ball, and then asked Moke with a face full of smiles.
"What small favor?" Moke was obviously stunned for a moment …
