Could something have happened to Norfeller? Lin Li could not help but frown. Norfeller's abilities were no longer the same as when he had just started following Lin Li. Although he had not reached the Legendary-realm yet, he was infinitely close to it with the help of the night.
A Legendary-realm Vampire might not be able to fight against some of the powerful magical beasts in the Haiga Mountain Range, but it would not be a problem for him to leave the battlefield quickly if he met a tough opponent.
Just as Lin Li was feeling strange, he vaguely heard some noises coming from outside the campsite. This was rare in the elves' campsite. Although the elves worshipped freedom, it did not mean that there was chaos and disorder. It was freedom under the premise of order.
Thinking about the message from Norfeller's blood oath, Lin Li had a hunch that the noises outside might have something to do with Norfeller. At the thought of this, Lin Li did not hesitate much. He casually kept the Book of Eternity, and walked out of the tent quickly.
The Malfa Family's campsite was located west of the elves' campsite. Apart from the protection of the elves' vines, there were no changes to the layout inside. Lin Li's tent was still located in the middle of the campsite. After leaving the tent, he would reach the exit of the Malfa Family's campsite.
When Lin Li walked out of the Malfa Family's campsite, he saw a few elves talking loudly not far away. One of them was stepping on his servant, Norfeller. There were seven arrows that emitted an emerald green glow on Norfeller's body. Under the suppression of the emerald green glow, Norfeller's energy waves were almost undetectable.
"It seems that this disgusting vampire is a high-level undead creature."
"So what? Under our Jacques' [Seven Star Archery], he still couldn't withstand a single blow. It can only blame itself for coming to the wrong place. How can dirty Undead creatures like them stain the Sacred Mountain of our elves? "
Jacques could not hide his smugness under the compliments of his companions. He looked down at Norfeller, and said in disgust, "It's a pity that my arrows have been dirtied by this fella's blood …" As he spoke, he lifted his leg and stomped on Norfeller.
But at this moment, a cold and low voice came clearly from the side. It made the elves feel chills all over their bodies. It was as if their souls were exposed to the biting cold wind.
"Let him go."
There was no fluctuation in Lin Li's voice. There was no trace of anger in his voice, but it was filled with boundless killing intent.
In fact, ever since Lin Li touched the edge of the Legendary-realm in the Scar of Death in the Blackstone Mountains, he had experienced many fierce battles with the powerhouses. Norfeller, a Vampire servant who had yet to reach the Legendary-realm, seemed to be of no use.
However, Lin Li had not forgotten that if Norfeller had not taken the initiative to sign a blood oath with him and become his servant, he would not have been able to walk out of the underground palace of the Undead in Jarrosus. Although it could be said that Norfeller was following his former master's will, there was no doubt that he had helped Lin Li.
When Lin Li left Jarrosus, came to the unfamiliar Breezy Plains, and became the first President of the Breezy Plains Guild of Magic, it would have been difficult for him to change the situation so quickly without the help of his loyal Vampire servant, Norfeller.
Although the Breezy Plains Guild of Magic was said to have the support of the Supreme Council, the help that the Supreme Council could provide was too limited. Moreover, if Lin Li had not been able to make a breakthrough, he would have lost the value of an investment in the eyes of the Supreme Council.
The level-17 Ice Howler that Lin Li had encountered when he rescued the son of the castellan of Roland City in the Dragon Mountains was probably not worth mentioning now. However, at that time, Lin Li had only just become an Archmage. If Norfeller had not been there to protect him, he would not have had the chance to use any of his tricks at all.
Ever since Lin Li stepped into the Legendary-realm, the opponents he faced also became stronger and stronger as his strength increased rapidly. Be it the Lord of Darkness of the Abyss of Tharlen or the Crimson Dragon in the underground palace, Norfeller's strength could no longer provide any help. However, Lin Li knew that even if he did not force him with a blood oath, Norfeller would definitely not hesitate to sacrifice his life for him.
There were all kinds of people around Lin Li. There were mages who were attracted by the generous treatment, pharmacists who joined the Tower of Dusk for the sake of learning pharmaceutics, Lich Ujfalusi whom Lin Li defeated and subdued, and elders who sincerely cared for him. However, when it came to the most loyal person who would sacrifice his life for him without hesitation, Norfeller was the only one who deserved the title of a loyal servant.
Now, Norfeller, the loyal servant who had been with him since he was in Jarrosus, was not only injured by the ignorant elves, but also trampled on and humiliated. Even with Lin Li's state of mind in the Legendary-realm, he could not suppress the anger in his heart.
The cold voice was like a piercingly cold wind. The elves had never known that killing intent could be so terrifying. It was as if it had a physical form, and they did not even dare to turn their heads to see who it was. At this moment, the elves felt as if they were isolated from their surroundings. It was as if they had left the elven camp and entered an unknown territory. In this territory formed by the killing intent, there was no light, no sound, and even their own heartbeats were about to stop.
How could this be? What am I afraid of? Have I forgotten my pride as an elf!? Jacques screamed in his heart as he twisted his neck bit by bit.
After all, he was also an elite among the younger generation of elves. Jacques suppressed the fear in his heart and finally turned his gaze towards the direction of the voice. "Human … Human! Was it you who spoke just now!? "
When he realized that the culprit was a human mage, Jacques heaved a sigh of relief. Although the pressure was still there, it was not as suffocating as before. This was because he knew that this was the camp of the elves, and these humans were here to seek cooperation with the elves. Would they really dare to kill him!?
Upon hearing Jacques's words, the other elves immediately regained their senses. At the same time, they were ashamed of their behavior just now. Their handsome faces were distorted and hideous in anger. It was simply intolerable for them to be frightened by a human mage to the point of breaking out in cold sweat.
There was a huge difference between having confidence and not having confidence. Even though the murderous intent that was locked onto Lin Li didn't change at all, the elves led by Jacques knew that this human mage definitely wouldn't dare to lay a finger on them. Although the killing intent that had terrified them still sent chills down their spines, they felt that it was more of a bluff by the human mage.
Yes, it must be a bluff! The elves secretly cheered themselves on. This was the camp of the elves, and there were many Legendary Masters of the elves here. Would a mere human mage really dare to kill them?
Unfortunately, the elves knew too little about Lin Li. In Gerian's words, Lin Li was born like a cat, and it would be fine to touch his fur. However, if he accidentally stepped on the cat's tail, he would be in big trouble. Even the incarnation of a deity would probably get scratched.
"Human, are you trying to cover up for this Undead creature?" Jacques did not believe that the other party would dare to lay a finger on him. This was the territory of the elves, and anyone who was not blind would know that the abilities of both parties were not on the same level. Furthermore, the natural pride of the elves made it impossible for Jacques to lower his head. "I have to say, this is a rather foolish decision. You will have to face the wrath of the Goddess for a filthy Undead creature. Human, it is not too late to regret now. Leave this place, and I can pretend that nothing happened …"
To Jacques, this was a rare kind advice. However, this time, his kind advice didn't get any response. The human mage just walked over slowly as if he didn't hear anything.
The surroundings suddenly became very quiet, and even breathing could be heard clearly.
Lin Li's steps were very light and slow, and there was no expression of anger on his face. However, for some reason, Jacques felt a chill run down his spine. That feeling was really like being stared at by a venomous snake, and he felt a chill from head to toe.
The air seemed to have frozen, and the magical wave in the surroundings gradually became intense. It was just a thin and weak human walking over slowly, but to Jacques, it was as if a terrifying magical beast had opened its bloody mouth …
Legend has it that the Elves were an elegant and noble race. However, even the elegant and noble Elves also had their own emotions. Their elegance came from their handsome appearance, their extremely long lifespan, and their persistence and confidence in perfection. All of these made it hard for them to avoid looking down on other races when they came into contact with other races.
However, when they realized that they could not look down on each other, this condescending attitude naturally became somewhat laughable …
Feeling the strong magical wave in the surroundings, Jacques swallowed a mouthful of saliva unnaturally. Although his expression was still arrogant and disdainful, his feet had already involuntarily taken a few steps back. At the same time, there was a slight tremble in his voice.
"You … What are you trying to do, human? I'm warning you …"
Lin Li did not say anything else, and only continued to walk towards the elves. With every step he took, the magical wave that was emitted became stronger. The wide magic robe on his body moved without any wind, and gradually, it made a loud sound as if it was in the midst of a raging gale.
A withered leaf seemed to have suddenly gained a life of its own as it slowly climbed up from the ground and leaped into the air. Under the guidance of an invisible force, it was like a withered yellow butterfly that danced around Lin Li. Perhaps due to the call of its companion, the leaves followed closely behind and turned into butterflies. They flew into the air without hesitation, and formed a long snake that spiraled into the air.
There was no change in Lin Li's expression. There was only a heart-palpitating chill. Even the dancing leaves could not stop his gaze that seemed to be able to freeze one's soul. His hair flew in the air. It seemed that every strand of his hair contained an immeasurable amount of mana, and it shone with a strange light in the night sky.
The invisible magical wave, under the embellishment of the fallen leaves, surrounded Lin Li's body, forming a huge whirlpool. The magical elements in the surroundings surged towards Lin Li's body like a tidal wave. Without using any magic, just the highly concentrated magical elements caused his body to be shrouded in a layer of hazy light.
"Human, I'm warning you again. This is the Sacred Mountain of the elves. If you dare to lay a hand on an elf here, Goddess Monferra will not let you off!" Jacques's voice started to become hurried, and even his breathing gradually became heavier.
Lin Li's gaze swept across the few elves, and finally locked onto Jacques. He did not recite any spells, nor did he take out his magic staff. He only extended his arm forward slowly.
The mana vortex that surrounded Lin Li suddenly accelerated without warning, and the long snake that was formed by the countless fallen leaves was also torn apart by the invisible force and disappeared instantly. Without the embellishment of the fallen leaves, it looked as though the mana whirlpool had dissipated. But looking at Lin Li's feet carefully, be it the fallen leaves, weeds, or pebbles of different sizes, they were all crushed into invisible particles in a single leap. The magical elements in the surroundings surged violently, as though the space was about to collapse.
Then, a pillar appeared in the void under the night sky, followed by two pillars … A huge arm that emitted a faint glow appeared in front of the elves as though it had torn the void apart. In an instant, all the light in the surroundings seemed to have been absorbed by the huge arm. The five fingers opened up, and each finger was bigger than a person. They seemed to be covering the sky and earth as they grabbed at the elves.
There was no recitation, and there was no enhancement from the magic staff. Although the huge arm that was formed by magic was terrifying, the elves felt that it was more like a bluff. Even if they were not mages, they knew that the more powerful a spell was, the longer the magic incantation and the longer the casting time. Hence, the elves believed that regardless of whether it was an illusion or some other magic, it was just an empty shell that could be cast so easily.
