"Are these 12 oil lamps that powerful?"
"Duh …" Connoris snorted in disdain. "Let me tell you another secret. Osric's purpose in creating these 12 oil lamps was to turn them into one of the strongest weapons in the Eternal Furnace. Hehe, if not for that lunatic's early death, the High Elves might have already possessed the Eighth Sky Castle. How could you humans defeat the High Elves so easily and become the true ruler of Anril …"
"Weapon? You mean to say that these 12 oil lamps are actually a part of the Eternal Furnace? "
"Of course. Otherwise, do you think that lunatic had nothing better to do, and went to the Abyss purely for fun?"
"…" Even with Lin Li's composure, he could not help but be stunned for a long time after hearing this secret from Connoris. Lin Li had personally entered the Eternal Furnace before, and knew better than anyone else in this world how perverted the Flame Palace floating in the sky was.
Moreover, that was only an incomplete Eternal Furnace.
If it was really like what Connoris said, and the Eternal Furnace was restored to its peak state, and the 12 oil lamps that sealed the 12 Demon Lords were completely integrated, then the Eternal Furnace would really be the Eighth Sky Castle …
"Lunatic …" This was the only title that Lin Li could think of that was fitting for Osric.
That was the only title that was befitting of the talented Highlord. The entire High Elves had only managed to create seven Sky Castles after countless years, and Osric had almost succeeded with his own strength …
"Oh, yes, almighty Soul Trader. You've said so much, but you still haven't told me how to deal with that Humerus Wyrm …"
"Heh heh, that's why I say you're lucky. To be honest, it's your fortune to have met me. I witnessed the entire process when Osric was making these twelve oil lamps. I know them better than anyone else in this world. It's too easy to seal that Humerus Wyrm. All you need is a spell …" Lin Li said as he looked at Lin Li, "Heh heh, that's why I said you're lucky. Honestly, it's your fortune to have met me.
After Connoris finished speaking, he recited a spell in the High Elves Language. Perhaps it was because it was too long ago, or perhaps it was because he did not hear it clearly back then, but Connoris' recitation of the spell became intermittent.
Fortunately, Lin Li had been in Anril for more than a year, and his mastery of the High Elves Language had already reached a proficient level. In addition, he had a deeper understanding of the core magical laws during this period of time, and it was not too difficult for him to analyze any magic spells.
It took Lin Li less than a minute to memorize the incantation, and he even helped Connoris pick out a few grammatical mistakes.
"Very good, almighty Mr Soul Trader. You must be tired after talking so much. Have a good rest. When we return to the Tower of Dusk, we'll talk about courtesy and respect …" After saying that, Lin Li completely disregarded Connoris' objections, and directly cut off the mental communication between them.
"Despicable …" Connoris could only curse before the mental communication was cut off. Then, he sank into the depths of the Ring of Endless Storm.
"Courtesy and respect? I'll settle the score with you when we get back … "Lin Li scolded as he slowly walked towards the Humerus Wyrm. At this time, the remaining magical wave of the Lich had become extremely weak. If one was not a powerhouse above the Archmage level, they would not be able to detect such a weak magical wave …
The surviving Death Knights had already stopped attacking under Lin Li's command. They only continued to exert pressure on the Humerus Wyrm, and restricted it to a corner.
When Lin Li walked over, the Humerus Wyrm had also reached its limit. The skeleton that was originally shining with a metallic luster was now pale and battered, and looked no different from an ordinary Skeletal Warrior. Now, there was no trace of a level-20 Undead creature on the Humerus Wyrm. Its power could only be described as pitiful, and even this pitiful power was depleting rapidly …
The Humerus Wyrm was still struggling with all its might. Waves of dragon roars came from the depths of the cave, but there was no trace of Dragon Might in the roar. It sounded like a low-level magical beast letting out a cry before its death …
"Luckily, I've found you a new place to stay …" Lin Li slowly took out the oil lamp from the Ring of Endless Storm, and began to recite a spell …
As Lin Li recited the spell of the High Elves, the level-15 magical crystal embedded in the oil lamp started to emit a gentle white light. As time passed, the white light became brighter and brighter until it illuminated the whole cave.
In this dazzling white light, the Humerus Wyrm that had been lying on the ground suddenly stood up, and swept its tail that was tens of meters long across the ground, causing a cloud of dust to rise. The earth-shattering dragon roar made Lin Li think that the powerful level-20 Undead creature had returned …
However, after letting out an indignant roar, the Humerus Wyrm lowered its head like a docile kitten. It allowed the white light to envelop its body, and allowed its body to become fainter and fainter in the light …
"Oh my God …" Among the 11 members of the advance party, apart from the few from the Tower of Dusk, only Adelo understood what this meant …
This meant that this young mage had also taken over the summoned creature — a level-20 Humerus Wyrm — when he defeated the Lich. Adelo could not imagine how many people would be a match for this young mage when this Humerus Wyrm was summoned.
This was too scary …
"When I get back, I have to tell Hutton about this and get him to restrain the people from the Malfa Family. Don't ever provoke this scary fella. Oh, yes, and Harvey. I heard that Harvey had some conflict with this fella before we came out. I hope he didn't cause any trouble for the Malfa Family …"
While Adelo was trembling in fear, Lin Li had already completed the seal on the Humerus Wyrm.
After sealing the entire Humerus Wyrm, the oil lamp in his hand did not seem to have changed much. It still looked like an antique snuff bottle that the nobles often played with. The only thing that had changed was the level-15 magical crystal that was embedded at the bottom of the oil lamp. The dazzling white light seemed to have used up a lot of mana. Lin Li could clearly feel that this level-15 magical crystal that was embedded a few days ago did not have much mana left …
"This oil lamp is good, but it uses up a lot of mana …" Lin Li could not help but feel his heart ache at the thought of the price of a level-15 magical crystal. Luckily, this kind of seal was not common. Otherwise, he might not be able to afford the consumption of this oil lamp even if he sold himself.
The Lich was smashed into pieces, and the Humerus Wyrm was completely sealed. The gloomy cave seemed to have become clean all of a sudden. Even the cold wind that blew occasionally no longer had the pungent smell of decay. Lin Li led the members of the advance party who had yet to recover from the shock, as well as the dozen or so Death Knights who were lucky enough to survive, and walked towards the altar in the distance, one step at a time.
The journey of a few hundred meters was unusually peaceful. There were no more Undead creatures to harass them. However, compared to this peaceful journey, Lin Li's heart was already filled with excitement. He knew that he was getting closer to Gloomy Dark. The Lich had fallen to its death, and the Humerus Wyrm was sealed. In the Scar of Death, there was nothing that could stop him from grasping Gloomy Dark in his hands!
This was his biggest gain from entering the Scar of Death …
Compared to regaining Gloomy Dark, sealing a Humerus Wyrm was insignificant. Gloomy Dark and Holy Light respectively contained the two purest forces in the world. One was Darkness, and the other was Light. In the hands of others, they might only be two powerful magical weapons. However, in the hands of the previous owner of the Stars of Fury, they would unleash terrifying power.
It was not an exaggeration to say that as long as he could master both Gloomy Dark and Holy Light, he would be invincible below the Legendary-realm even if he was physically weak!
"Gloomy Dark, long time no see …" Lin Li slowly stopped less than 10 meters away from the altar. This altar was indeed the work of the High Elves. The entire altar was made of Moonstones. Even in the deepest darkness, it would emit a faint light.
The entire altar was about 30 meters tall, and it was probably not much smaller than the massive Humerus Wyrm. At a glance, it looked like a towering steeple, and there seemed to be a bust of a High Elf carved out of moonstone at the top of the steeple.
The magical wave that was unique to Gloomy Dark was emitted from that bust.
"This …" Lin Li raised his head to look at the bust, and suddenly revealed a puzzled expression. Although he could tell from its ears and eyes that this bust belonged to a High Elf, Lin Li did not know why he felt that the face of this bust was somewhat familiar …
With this doubt in mind, Lin Li released a Warlock's Eye.
As the Warlock's Eye got closer, the face of the bust became clearer. However, no matter how hard Lin Li tried to recall, he could not remember where he had seen this bust before.
