"This mageweath is amazing …" At the mention of the All-Kill Array, Lin Li beamed with joy, and lied without hesitation. "This is the masterpiece of Master Moke from the Supreme Council. In order to get Master Moke to help me set up this mageweath, I spent a lot of money. Just the bribes alone amounted to hundreds of thousands of gold coins, and a lot of rare magical materials, before I finally …"
"Pfft!" Apohis did not know whether to laugh or cry. This fella was indeed as shameless as the rumors said. There was not a single word of truth in his mouth. What messy Master Moke? How could he not know Moke's abilities? At most, he was at the level of Aldwin. It might not be a problem for him to set up some ordinary mageweaths, but it would be a joke if he were to really set up such a powerful mageweath that shocked even himself …
"If you don't believe me, you can ask Master Moke yourself …" Lin Li did not care so much, and put on a fearless attitude. Anyway, with the identity of the person in front of him, he would not really interrogate him about the origin of the All-Kill Array.
"Scram!" Apohis was so angry that his nose almost became crooked. Moke had gone back two or three days ago, so where was he going to find him?
The old and the young came out of the study, and went up the stairs to the fifth floor. There should have been a library there, but the magic books had not been delivered yet, so it was a little empty now. However, it was suitable for a battle between two mages.
"How about here?" Lin Li chanted a spell, and opened the door. At the same time, he separated a bit of mental strength to control the All-Kill Array in the basement, and let the power of the two mageweaths, Elemental Annihilation and Mana Melting, fill the empty library.
"Not bad." Apohis nodded, and there was some approval in his eyes. Of course, he was not praising the library, but the All-Kill Array in the basement. At his level, he was already well-versed in everything. He did not need any understanding of inscriptions to be able to clearly grasp every bit of the flow of mana in the All-Kill Array. It was also because of this that he knew better than others how powerful this strange mageweath was …
"Have you really fought alongside Geresco before?" Lin Li asked curiously after he entered.
"Of course …" To Apohis, that was the most glorious period of his life. Even after 1300 years, he could not help but feel proud and nostalgic. "Actually, I've known Geresco since I was very young. We learned magic together, and … Damn it, you little bastard, don't you have any shame?"
Apohis didn't expect that just as he was immersed in his memories, a huge fireball whizzed towards him with a "boom" …
This was a level-16 fireball. Without any protection, even a Sanctuary Master could not help but be flustered. He could only curse while putting up an Elemental Shield. With a muffled bang, the fireball exploded on the Elemental Shield that he had just put up. In an instant, countless sparks flew, illuminating the empty library and igniting his messy beard …
"Damn it, how dare you sneak an attack on me?" The fireball came too quickly. Even with Apohis's abilities, he could only use the Elemental Shield to protect his vital parts. As for his beard and hair, he could not care about it at all. As a dignified Sanctuary Master, he actually suffered a small loss in front of an Archmage.
"Why, is it illegal to sneak an attack on you?" Lin Li laughed shamelessly. Not to be outdone, he retorted while chanting with all his might. In an instant, another fireball whizzed out …
"Kid, you've got guts!" Apohis was so angry that his lungs almost exploded. This kid was too shameless. He used a sentence to provoke his memories of the past, and then took the opportunity to sneak an attack with a fireball. Fortunately, he was a Sanctuary Master, and could instantly cast any spell below level-20. If it had been a Legendary-mage, he might have been embarrassed …
However, Apohis was a Sanctuary Master, after all. After dispelling the fireball with an Elemental Shield, he took control of the situation. He did not chant a spell, nor did he cast any spells. He only felt a huge wave of mana spread out, making Lin Li feel as if there was a mountain pressing down on him, making him unable to move or breathe.
"By the way, Arbitrator Apohis, did you fight with the High Elven Queen when the allied forces attacked the Sky Castle?"
"Of course, I was … Damn it, why did I tell you about the past? I'm going to beat you to death today, you little bastard … "Apohis was distracted, and almost fell for another big trick. In a fit of anger, the old man simply shut his mouth.
Once the old man shut his mouth, Lin Li immediately complained incessantly …
For a moment, Lin Li only felt that the mana around him was shrinking continuously like a huge python, wrapping around his body more and more tightly. No, not only his body, but his mental strength was also tightly compressed under this terrifying force. The originally powerful mental strength was like snow meeting the sun in front of the Sanctuary Master, melting without a trace in the blink of an eye …
The door of the library was tightly shut, but the terrifying magical waves made every guest turn pale with fright. Although Apophis had only used a very small amount of power, and although the All-Kill Array had already suppressed the power to the limit, everyone could still clearly feel the majesty of a Sanctuary Master.
Those who could attend today's ceremony were at least the president of a Guild of Magic. In terms of strength, they were at least at the level of an Archmage. They knew better than anyone else how terrifying the magical wave that emanated from the library was.
"Damn it, these old demons of the Supreme Council are really freaking sick …" Englos, Sendros, Hoffman, and the others could not help but curse under their breaths as they felt the power that made them tremble. The three old demons of the Supreme Council had not fought for more than 1,300 years, and it was only today that everyone suddenly realized that the power of these three old demons was far beyond their imagination …
Of course, more people had another question in their minds — which psycho dared to fight with these old demons?
Englos looked around in shock, and then looked at the tightly shut door of the library on the fifth floor. A strange expression suddenly appeared on his face. "Could it be Felic?"
…
It was not until half an hour later that the terrifying magical wave gradually calmed down …
"So, do you still want to fight?" Apohis asked with a satisfied smile as he patted the dust off his robe.
"Only an idiot would want to fight …" Lin Li cursed weakly as he laid on the ground. F * ck, this old man is too sick. Other than the simplest Elemental Shield, he did not use any magic from the beginning to the end. He only manipulated a pure mana, and he easily fixed me until I was paralyzed. F * ck, if I were to use a few more spells, I'm afraid I won't even have the strength to lie down.
"Now do you know what you did wrong?"
"It's my fault for attacking too late. If I had attacked earlier, your hair might have been burnt off …" Lin Li muttered as he took out a bottle of Recovery Potion from his pocket. Damn it, the Sanctuary Master is so inhumane. How could he injure me like this even under the protection of the All-Kill Array …?
"Nonsense, what's the use of attacking earlier? At the Sanctuary-realm, mana has completely become a part of the body. As long as there is a slight abnormality in the magical wave, the mana will automatically react and naturally form a defense system. Do you think that the Elemental Shield just now was controlled by me? I'm already a man with one foot in the grave, how could I have such a quick reaction? Can't you use your brain … "
"Then why didn't it automatically protect your beard?" Lin Li looked at the old man maliciously, and his gaze fell on the half-burnt beard …
"Damn it …" Apophis stomped his feet in anger when Lin Li's words hit his sore spot. It was indeed a moment of carelessness on his part. He did not expect that this kid with level-17 abilities could actually release a fireball instantaneously. As a result, he was caught off guard and actually hurt his beard.
"But then again, a Sanctuary Master is really powerful. You only relied on an Elemental Shield to withstand at least 10 of my fireballs. How did you do that?"
"That's nothing …" Apophis became arrogant again after being flattered by Lin Li. He shook his messy beard, and said, "If I wanted to, I could use an Elemental Shield to withstand 100 of your fireballs. This comes from my understanding of mana and Rules. Let me tell you, this is the true essence of magic. No matter how powerful your magic is or how fast your recitation is, it is not comparable to a Wind Blade that truly embodies the essence of magic."
"Isn't this a little too exaggerated? I have also mastered many Rules of Magic, and more than 10 of them are the core ones. But why can't I be like you and use an Elemental Shield to withstand 100 fireballs? "
"Pfft, how can you talk about mastering Rules with that little ability of yours, and more than 10 of them are the core ones? In my opinion, you haven't even touched the edge of the Rules. That's right, you do have a rare talent, but you don't know how to use it at all. Now, you're like a kid who thinks he's smart, holding a sharp weapon, but doesn't know how to use it. Sooner or later, you'll hurt yourself …"
