Amidst the clattering of hooves, a few carriages sped past, stirring up a cloud of dust on the road. In one of the carriages, Rina, who was dressed in silver armor, was frowning. This young Paladin recalled the words that her teacher, Englos, had said in the past two days. She had never seen her teacher, Englos, speak so highly of anyone in the past two days.
In the past two days, her teacher seemed to have been talking about the genius called Felic, and the pharmacists' gathering in Alanna. According to her teacher, this genius pharmacist called Felic was omnipotent. He only used a few minutes to solve the problem of the entire Pharmacists Guild. Her teacher even felt that he was the only person in the world who could cure the Viper's poison.
"How is that possible?" As the only Judge Paladin of the Paladins, and the disciple of Archbishop Englos, Rina had the opportunity to come into contact with some of the top secrets of the Brilliance Shrine. She knew that His Majesty had been poisoned by the Viper's poison for decades, and that the Brilliance Shrine had been looking for a way to cure it. Almost all the famous doctors and pharmacists in the whole of Anril had been invited to the Church of Dawn to try, but His Majesty was still tormented by the Viper's poison after decades …
Rina could not believe that a so-called genius in his twenties could cure the Viper's poison that countless doctors and pharmacists could not.
Perhaps her teacher was really exaggerating this time …
Oh, yes, her teacher seemed to have mentioned that this genius pharmacist called Felic was also the youngest president of the Guild of Magic in Anril. Today was the day he was inaugurated as the president of the Breezy Plains Guild of Magic.
A few carriages slowly stopped outside the Tower of Dusk. Rina opened the door and alighted from the carriage. She followed closely behind her teacher as they walked towards the open gate of the Tower of Dusk. The morning sun shone down, making Rina's golden hair even more dazzling.
"Englos, it's been a long time!" Just as Englos and the rest alighted from the carriage, Herza came up to them from afar. The old man was wearing a brand new robe today, and his messy hair was combed neatly. From afar, he looked like he was a decade younger.
"Hehe, it's been a long time, Herza."
"Oh, yes, where's Archbishop Martin? Didn't he come with you?"
"Martin had some matters to attend to, and may only come a little later. He asked me to apologize to you first." Englos said apologetically before introducing Rina. "Oh, yes, let me introduce to you. This is my disciple, Rina. She is now in the Holy Paladins."
"Miss Rina has entered the Holy Paladins at such a young age? Englos, your Brilliance Palace is indeed full of geniuses, I really envy you for having such a talented disciple... "
"Herza, it has been years since we last met. Why are you still so hypocritical? The most insane genius in Anril is in the Supreme Council. Who else do you have to be envious of? "
"It's not as exaggerated as you say …" Although Herza sounded humble, the smile on his face was unusually smug.
"Oh, yes. Rina, let me introduce you. This is Mage Herza. Aren't you interested in pharmaceutics? You can ask Mage Herza to give you some pointers. He's an authority in pharmaceutics in the Supreme Council …" Lin Li said.
"Pah, don't make fun of me. It's not like you don't know who the most authoritative person is …"
"Hehe, how's Mage Felic recently? Ever since the exchange meeting, I haven't seen him for a few months. Today is his big day, so why hasn't he come out to meet anyone? "
"That kid is in the study. There's nothing we can do about it. Arbitrator Apophis is here and wants to see him. Even Hoffman is waiting in the guild hall now. Do you want to go over and have a chat with Hoffman?"
"Apophis is here too?"
"Yes, he came this morning. He dragged Felic into the study. As you know, his relationship with this kid is not ordinary …"
"That's true …"
The two of them chatted casually, and Rina, who was at the side, didn't interrupt. She just listened quietly.
If Rina had thought that her teacher was exaggerating in the beginning, she was getting more and more curious now. She really wanted to know what was so special about this genius pharmacist named Felic.
Of course, at the same time that she was curious, Rina felt a little indignant …
According to her teacher, this Felic was even younger than her. He was only 20 years old this year, but he was already recognized by everyone at such a young age. Everyone was talking about this Felic as they walked into the guild hall from the carriage. Their words were full of praise and compliments. What she saw and heard along the way filled Rina with curiosity. She really wanted to know if this Felic was really that amazing …
The two of them followed Herza and quickly entered the guild hall. Hoffman was squatting on the ground and studying the huge crystal ball. His originally short and fat body looked even more comical now.
"Hoffman, why are you here so early?" They were all Master Pharmacists and often interacted with each other. Englos was naturally more casual when he greeted him.
"Englos, you old fella, you're here too? Take a seat, I want to study this crystal ball first … "Hoffman shouted without turning his head.
"Is there a problem with this crystal ball?" Englos moved closer with a puzzled look, but his expression froze the moment he took a look. "Amazing …"
Although Englos wasn't good at inscriptions, he was a Master after all. At their level, many things were already interlinked. He didn't know anything about magic circuits or magic nodes, but when he saw the mageweath on the base, he knew that it was definitely the work of a Master.
"Heh heh, now you know how amazing it is. I've been studying it for the whole morning …" Hoffman pursed his lips and stood up shakily. "The Supreme Council is indeed full of hidden talents. Such a powerful mageweath can be inscribed on a random crystal ball. I wonder which bastard did it …"
"Achoo!" At this moment, Lin Li, who was sitting in the study, sneezed for no reason. He rubbed his nose and muttered to himself, "Who's so despicable to scold me behind my back …"
Sitting opposite Lin Li was a short old man with a messy beard and messy white hair. His gray robe was stained with dirt, and he looked like a destitute old man. However, no one, including Lin Li, who knew him would dare to use the word "destitute" to describe him.
That was because he was Apophis, one of the three arbitrators of the Supreme Council. He was a powerhouse who had reached the Legendary-realm 1,300 years ago, and one of the few Sanctuary Masters in Anril. Who would dare to use the word "destitute" to describe such a person?
"Andoine is such a disappointing thing. After teaching you for so long, he actually made you like this. When I get back, I'm going to break his legs …" The old man's face was full of exasperation. "Look at yourself. Such a good talent in magic has been ruined by you. If I were you, I would have been too ashamed to live in this world …"
"…" Lin Li did not know whether to laugh or cry. This old man's temper was too strange. He would scold people for no reason, but Lin Li could not retort. The reason was simple. This old man named Apophis was Andoine's mentor. In other words, he was Lin Li's Grandmaster …
Even if he was not afraid of anything, he could only accept being scolded by this old man …
"Don't think that I don't know what you're thinking just because you don't speak. Are you unhappy? Let me tell you, you're wasting your rare talent by learning magic from Andoine. If I had your insane mental strength, I would have surpassed that bastard Geresco long ago … "
"Actually …" Lin Li touched his nose, and carefully defended himself. "Actually, I'm not that bad, right …"
"Bullsh * t!" Who knew that it would have been better if he hadn't defended himself? The moment he said that, the old man shot to his feet. "Is there any place here that's protected by the mageweath's power? Bring me there. I'll let you know just how weak you are right now!"
"Erm …" Of course there were places protected by mageweaths, and there were quite a few of them. In fact, if Lin Li wanted to, he could make the All-Kill Array protect the entire Tower of Dusk with just a single incantation. However, Lin Li did not want to tell this eccentric old man that he was a Sanctuary Master. Even with the protection of the mageweath, Lin Li would most likely beat the crap out of him …
"It's okay if you don't have it, I'll just suppress my strength …"
"Yes, of course there is. There is too much of it …" Lin Li almost had a heart attack. No matter how much a Sanctuary Master suppressed his strength, he was still at least at the Legendary-level. If they really fought, he could easily cripple him. It would be better to find a place protected by the mageweath. At least the mageweaths of Element Annihilation and Mana Melting could lessen his injuries …
Since he was going to die anyway, Lin Li gritted his teeth and made up his mind to recite a few spells.
As Lin Li's spell was completed, the power of the All-Kill Array immediately shrouded the whole Tower of Dusk. At this moment, almost everyone could feel a strong force spreading in the Tower of Dusk. But, most people did not know where this force came from.
"Eh?" Feeling the power of the All-Kill Array, the old man who had been disdainful of Lin Li's magic suddenly had a look of surprise on his face. "What mageweath is this?"
