Lin Li was in a daze. He had spent a lot of time studying these core laws ever since he had obtained them. Especially after he had arrived at the Breezy Plains, he had locked himself in his house for a month, doing nothing but studying these core laws in silence. After that, he had even created Arcane Combustion and Countercurrent Vortex, two spells that belonged only to him. All along, Lin Li had thought that he had at least gained some understanding of these core laws, although he could not say that he had a thorough understanding of them. He had not expected this old man to say that he had not even touched the edges of them …
But, Lin Li knew that Apophis would not speak carelessly.
After spending the morning together, Lin Li had gained some understanding of this Sanctuary Master. Indeed, he was hot-tempered and had a weird personality. Sometimes, Lin Li even felt that he was another Gerian. However, there was one thing that Gerian could not compare to, and that was his understanding of magic. This hot-tempered and weird old man might be one of the people in the whole of Anril who had the deepest understanding of magic!
The old man's life was too long. Long ago, during the Dark Ages, when the High Elves were still ruling this land, the old man had already broken through the Legendary-realm. He fought alongside the God of Mages, Geresco, and killed the High Elven Queen, Azshara. He even used magic to shoot down a Sky Castle. In this long life, he was getting closer to the essence of magic!
In the battle just now, Apophis was not just torturing Lin Li. In fact, he would take the time to give Lin Li a few pointers occasionally. He did not give much pointers, and his tone was not very good either. But, almost every word pointed to the key points. To Lin Li, it was as if he had been enlightened, and he immediately felt that everything before him was clear!
"Then, what should I do?"
"Well, hehehe …" Apophis laughed wretchedly, and his half-burnt beard twitched. "I came to the Breezy Plains this time to tell you about this. It's a pity that you don't know how to respect your elders. How dare you lie to such an amiable old man like me? Damn it, what work of Master Moke? Do you really think I'm blind?"
"That's called a Mageweath Array …" Lin Li did not intend to say it at first, for fear that he would be targeted by the Supreme Council. However, he could not care less now that he had a favor to ask …
"Isn't it just a mageweath array? What's so great about it? You actually pushed the blame to that idiot Moke …" It was the first time that the old man had the upper hand in a verbal argument, and he instantly revealed a proud smile. However, as he smiled, his smile stiffened, and he jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. "Mageweath array?"
"Yeah …"
"Damn it, I don't believe it. How can there be such a thing as a mageweath array!"
"Just a few low-level mageweaths …"
"Not even low-tier mageweaths!"
"…" Lin Li rolled his eyes, and decided not to say anything.
After jumping around for a long time, the old man seemed to have sensed something. He then looked at Lin Li, who remained silent. After a long time, he cautiously asked, "Is it really a mageweath array?"
"Really …"
Judging from the flow of mana, it doesn't look like an Alchemy Array. That's right, it's a Mageweath Array … "Apophis stared at Lin Li for a long time before he suddenly laughed. It was a brilliant smile, and his wretched old face had almost shrunk into a flower." Ahahaha, I knew it. Although Andoine isn't very capable, he has a good eye for people. I've really picked up a treasure this time. Kid, tell me honestly, are you a Master of Inscription or a Guru of Inscription? Damn it, Mageweath Array, are you a Divine Smith? "
"How can it be so exaggerated? It's just a few low-level mageweaths …"
"I don't care if it's a low-level mageweath or not. Kid, how about we make a deal? I happen to need a powerful mageweath after a period of time. Help me settle this matter, and I'll show you the right path … "At this point, the old man seemed to be afraid that Lin Li would not believe him, and vowed," Don't worry, as long as you follow the path I show you, with your talent, you'll definitely break through to the Legendary-realm in half a year! "
After staring at the old man for a long time, Lin Li only said one sentence. "You'll be responsible for providing the materials …"
"Deal!"
…
The old man and the young man hid in the library, and no one saw them until noon. Speaking of which, it was actually a little rude. There were so many guests coming from afar, and it was not right for the host to hide in the library. Moreover, the guests that came today were all big shots with high status, such as the two Archbishops of the Brilliance Shrine, the two High Priests of the Darkness Shrine, the prince of the Felan Kingdom, and the boss of the Glittergold Trade Union. They were all distinguished guests that ordinary people would not be able to invite …
However, everyone present knew who the two people hiding in the library were, so no one said anything. It couldn't be helped. With the identity of those two, not to mention hiding for a morning, even if they hid for a day or two, the people present could only continue to wait.
It was not until lunchtime that the old man and the young man slowly came down from upstairs.
"Kid, don't forget what you promised me, or else I won't be polite to you!" Apophis walked in front with a wretched smile on his face. He threatened Lin Li as he walked down the stairs.
"Got it, got it …" Lin Li, who was walking at the back, was limping. Half of his face was already swollen, and he looked as pathetic as could be.
While Herza was preparing for the ceremony, Lin Li sneaked back to his bedroom, changed into a new robe, and treated the wound on his face. As he applied medicine on his face, Lin Li could not help but curse in his heart. This old man was too uncultured. As the saying goes, don't hit someone's face in a fight. But this old man just had to hit Lin Li's face out of all places. Half of Lin Li's face was almost swollen like a pig's head after more than 10 wind blades and icicles. Luckily, he had prepared some Recovery Potion, or else he would not know how to go out and meet people …
By the time Lin Li came out of his bedroom, the inauguration ceremony had officially begun.
Lin Li was wearing a brand new robe, and his good figure was set off by the robe. He wore a black pointed hat on his head, and the Dragon's Eye on the tip of his Aether Staff glowed faintly. Apart from the disharmonious bruises on his face, Lin Li looked flawless. Even Apophis, who never had a good word to say, could not help but mutter a compliment at this moment. "I really can't tell that this kid is so shameless just by looking at him …"
"Good afternoon, everyone. I am honored to announce that the Supreme Council will appoint a new guild president. His mission and responsibility is to maintain order in the Breezy Plains …" Herza walked up to the stage amidst the enthusiastic applause. "Now, please allow me to introduce the new president of the Breezy Plains Guild of Magic, the most outstanding genius among the young mages, Archmage Felic!"
"Mr. Herza, you're too kind …" Lin Li walked up to the stage with a smile, and said a few polite words in a practiced manner.
At this moment, Rina, who was in the crowd, secretly frowned.
Rina had a feeling that she had seen this person on the stage somewhere before, but when she wanted to take a closer look, she was blocked by the bruises on his face. This President Felic was really too much. He knew that today was a big day, and yet he still went to fight with someone. Now that half of his face was swollen like a pig's head, he was happy …
Rina could not help but want to laugh as she looked at him. That face was really too comical. Not only was it red and swollen, it was also covered in bruises. It was as if he had accidentally spilled paint, and it was all over his face.
At this moment, Rina wasn't the only one who wanted to see through the bruises. President Amman from the Thunder City Guild also felt that the figure looked familiar.
"Strange, why does he look so familiar …" Since the beginning of the inauguration ceremony, Amman had been wondering where he had seen this young president before. This was really too strange. He had been researching that potion formula that he had obtained by chance for more than 10 years, and had never left Thunder City. Furthermore, this young president's accent did not sound like he was from Thunder City. Why did he feel that he looked so familiar?
Oh, no, he had indeed left once a few months ago …
During the gathering at the Pharmacists Guild, he had brought Milo to Alanna to participate in the gathering. It was also at that gathering that he had embarrassed himself the most in his life, and the person who embarrassed him seemed to be called Felic!
When this memory suddenly popped up in his mind, Amman suddenly felt cold sweat trickling down his back. That's right, it was really that pharmacist called Felic. Be it his age or his figure, they were all exactly the same. Amman finally understood why the inauguration ceremony of the President of the Breezy Plains Guild of Magic would invite guests from the Brilliance Shrine and the Darkness Shrine. Moreover, they even invited two archbishops and two high priests at the same time. Damn it, Englos and Sendros were obviously here for this young pharmacist!
At that moment, Amman felt his hands and feet turn cold. He had never thought that Felic would be able to climb up the ranks so quickly. He was appointed as the President of the Breezy Plains Guild of Magic at such a young age, and it seemed like he was highly appreciated by the Supreme Council. Even Arbitrator Apophis was present at this inauguration ceremony. Looking at the way the two of them walked down the stairs, Amman could tell that the relationship between Felic and Apophis was not ordinary no matter how stupid he was …
