Lin Li had only released this Demon Gordon out of curiosity, and not because he had any use for himself or the Tower of Dusk. Hence, Lin Li naturally couldn't be bothered to spend more time on this guy.
Seeing that Lin Li was about to pull the trigger, Gordon didn't want to walk into his grave as soon as he got out of the cage. Hence, he hurriedly yelled, "I promise you, I'll do whatever you want."
It seemed that this demon wasn't that strong-willed after all. Lin Li really didn't know why the High Elves would lock this guy up here. Lin Li found it funny, but his expression remained cold. "You don't need me to teach you what to do, right?" he said.
"Yes, yes." Gordon lamented his bad luck. He thought that he had regained his freedom, but he didn't expect to be locked up in another cage before he could even rejoice. Although he was unwilling, he didn't dare to delay any longer. He hurriedly submitted his Soul Oath obediently, for fear that Lin Li would kill him out of impatience.
Everyone didn't understand why Lin Li wanted to subdue such a demon, but Cheyenne got some inspiration from Lin Li's actions. Cheyenne was the only Legendary powerhouse in the Malfa Family now. Hence, he could only defend Aminya, which even slowed down the progress of his abilities. Although the Dark Blade had suffered heavy losses, they still had two Legendary powerhouses, after all. Hence, their overall abilities were still stronger than the Malfa Family. If the Malfa Family could have another Legendary powerhouse, it would definitely be beneficial to the development of the Malfa Family.
At the thought of this, Cheyenne said to everyone just as Lin Li was about to leave with Gordon, who had regrown his body. "Elder Randy, Mage Felic, I'm sorry, please wait for a moment." He then returned to the crystal ball and reached out to tap it.
Everyone was naturally aware of what Cheyenne was thinking, but no one said anything. They simply stood there and waited to see what kind of demon Cheyenne would release.
Cheyenne tapped on the crystal ball a few times, and finally, the image was fixed on a cage. There was a Demon Winged Angel imprisoned in the 50th level of the Abyss.
It was called an angel because the wings on its back weren't made of flesh like the wings of other Abyssal Demons. Instead, they were a pair of pure white wings. However, upon closer inspection, one would discover that the white color of his wings was not pure and flawless. Instead, it was a kind of paleness.
Winged Angels possessed extremely high speed and were proficient in concealment and concealment. The pair of bone spurs on their arms were even more indestructible. They were famous assassins in the abyss. In terms of assassination, the Winged Angels were not inferior to Lansdale of the Dark Blade. In fact, they were even stronger to a certain extent.
Throughout the years of fighting with the Dark Blade, the Malfa Family had suffered many losses in terms of assassinations. Even though Lansdale didn't strike easily, his disciples' hands were stained with the blood of the Malfa Family's mages. On the other hand, Cheyenne had more or less suffered some losses when fighting with the Dark Blade.
Hence, Cheyenne thought of the Winged Angel. Perhaps he didn't need him to assassinate anyone, but having a Legendary-level Assassin like the Winged Angel would definitely be beneficial to the development of the Malfa Family in the future.
Cheyenne tapped the crystal ball lightly and opened the cage that imprisoned the Winged Angel. However, what was strange was that although the cage had been opened, there was no aura that erupted at this moment. It was as if the cage was empty.
At this moment, Cheyenne, who was standing in front of the crystal ball, suddenly waved his magic staff and released a Gas Explosion Spell beside him. Then, he used this force to leap to the side.
However, the Gas Blast Spell did not hit any targets. Cheyenne, who had leaped to the side, suddenly turned around and slammed his staff on the ground before he could stabilize himself. A circle of flame ripples immediately spread out from his body.
However, just as the flames spread around, a figure suddenly appeared behind Cheyenne, and the bone spur on his arm silently pierced towards Cheyenne's heart.
Cheyenne was extremely depressed. Why was the demon that Mage Felic had released so much nonsense just now, but the one that he had released didn't say anything at all, and attacked as soon as it appeared? He was an assassin who was not inferior to Lansdale. Although Cheyenne was rather experienced in dealing with such sneak attacks and assassinations, he was still forced to be flustered.
More importantly, Cheyenne's best means of dealing with assassination had been destroyed in the Seven-Realm Spiral. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so afraid of the Winged Angel's attack. Fortunately, Cheyenne had recovered his strength to its peak state when he was on the third floor. Otherwise, he really wouldn't have known how to deal with this.
"Master Cheyenne, if you want to understand the Winged Angel's strength, you'd better leave this place and go back to do so." While speaking, Lin Li raised the Helios' Scepter in his hand, and countless Arcane Missiles immediately blasted towards Cheyenne's surroundings.
The Arcane Missiles weren't very powerful, especially for a Legendary-mage. It was a rather low-level magic spell. However, Lin Li didn't intend to help Cheyenne beat up the Winged Angel. After all, the Winged Angel didn't have an insane recovery ability like Gordon. Hence, he didn't use the Crossbow of Reincarnation, and only used the Arcane Missiles to force the Winged Angel to reveal itself.
Seeing that Lin Li had already made his move, Elder Randy couldn't stay idle either. After receiving a signal from Elder Randy, Gildor drew his bow, and 14 sharp arrows shot out almost at the same time, shrouding Cheyenne in all directions.
Although the Winged Angel was very fast and good at hiding, there was limited space here, after all. Facing the attacks of so many Legendary powerhouses at the same time was like a fly facing a huge fly swatter. No matter where it flew, it would be swatted.
Seeing that the Winged Angel was forced to reveal itself, Cheyenne immediately waved his scepter, and blasted the magic spell that he had prepared …
After signing the Soul Contract with the Winged Angel, Cheyenne could not hide the joy in his eyes. With the 100 pieces of magical equipment and a Legendary-level Winged Angel, the Malfa Family and the Dark Blade's power had finally reached a balance. Moreover, it could be predicted that the Malfa Family would definitely surpass the Dark Blade after a few more years.
Seeing that Lin Li and Cheyenne had subdued the powerful Abyssal Demons one after another, Elder Randy and the other elves felt a little unnatural. Associating with demons had always been an action that the elves despised. In their eyes, Undead creatures were filthy existences, while demons were synonymous with evil and depraved.
However, Elder Randy couldn't help but feel a little envious of Lin Li and Cheyenne. After all, those two Abyssal Demons were not rookies who had just entered the Legendary-realm. It wasn't easy to find such powerful fighters. Unfortunately, as an elf, it was impossible for him to sign a Soul Contract with a demon. If he did that, he would not be tolerated by the entire elven race, even if he was the eighth elder.
Actually, the elves had gained the most on the fourth floor. After all, they had found the sacred unicorn, while Lin Li and Cheyenne had only found a Legendary-level fighter each. At the thought of this, Elder Randy felt more at ease. Hence, he asked Lin Li and Cheyenne, "Mage Felic, Mage Cheyenne, should we go take a look at the fifth floor next?"
Although everyone had gained something on the fourth floor of the Central Tower, and the elves had even found the sacred unicorn, everyone was still somewhat disappointed. If it had been somewhere else, perhaps the gains would have been rather impressive. However, they were in the Sky Castle, where the Immortal King's treasure was located. Hence, the gains were a little unsatisfactory.
When they arrived at the fifth floor of the Central Tower, they were surprised to discover that there were two doors with gorgeous patterns that blocked their view. That was a little interesting. The previous few floors were almost unguarded, and they could see everything clearly at a glance. Yet, there were two doors here. What could be behind those doors?
At first, everyone was still a little worried. If there was a Magical Thousand-contraption Lock on the door, no one would be able to enter. However, Lin Li carefully observed the patterns on the door, only to find that they were just patterns, and had no defensive effect at all. With a light push, the two magnificent doors slowly opened to the sides, revealing the scene inside the room in front of everyone's eyes.
The things in the Central Tower were beyond everyone's expectations time and time again, and the fifth floor was no exception. In the spacious room, there were more than ten rows of tall bookshelves. It was just like the library of the Central Tower. Every bookshelf was neatly filled with all kinds of books, each of which was emitting a faint magical glow.
Looking at the rows of bookshelves and the dazzling array of magic books on the shelves, everyone couldn't help but feel excited. No matter how powerful a piece of magical equipment was, it could only be used by one person. However, knowledge could benefit more people. Hence, no matter how powerful a piece of magical equipment was, its value was still limited. Only the value of knowledge was infinite. No one doubted the value of the magic books in the room. This was the last Sky Castle, and it was the treasure of the Immortal King.
The war at the end of the Dark Age caused the civilization of Anril to regress greatly. Not only were there a large number of lost potions, inscriptions, and alchemy, but even magic was much worse than before. The reason why Anril was still known as the heyday of magic was actually only because the two magic tides made it easier for mages to improve their abilities. In fact, everyone knew that the magic civilization of this era was far from being comparable to the Dark Age when the High Elves were ruling.
Everyone walked into the room excitedly, and walked through the rows of bookshelves. No one took the lead to take the books on the bookshelves, but the names of the authors and the titles of the books were enough to let them know that this batch of books was definitely of immeasurable value.
From the theoretical research of magic to the analysis of various high-level magic spells, the magic books could be said to cover all aspects of knowledge in the entire field of magic. Even the Supreme Council probably didn't have such a complete collection of books. Besides, the authors of those books and notes were all powerhouses who were brilliant during the Dark Age.
"Fenix! This is Fenix's work! "Someone exclaimed when he saw the names of a few of the notes.
Even though the Dark Age had ended more than 1,300 years ago, the name Fenix did not lose its halo. The most trusted guardian of the High Elven queen, the creator and first commander of the Magic Legion, the creator of several forbidden-level magic spells, and so on. All of them were worthy of respect.
However, after Fenix, the crowd saw the dazzling names one after another, and the shock they felt deep in their hearts was indescribable.
Aegno, the first dean of the High Elves' Royal Magic Academy, the greatest magic theorist of the Dark Age. The classification of mages' abilities that he formulated had been used to this day. Elrond, the genius mage of the High Elves' royal family, the first mage to convert dragon-language magic into magic in the High Elves' language. Melgrad, the chief royal mage, the creator of instantaneous magic …
Looking at the names that could become symbols of an era, everyone found it increasingly difficult to suppress their excitement. Their eyes flickered non-stop, and even their breathing became more and more labored. Everyone knew what it meant to have these books. If powerful magical equipment could create a powerhouse, then knowledge could create generations of powerhouses. It would definitely have an immeasurable effect on the future development of a force.
Finally, everyone stopped at the other side of the room. Lin Li, Cheyenne, and Elder Randy, the three leaders of their respective forces, did not say anything. They merely made eye contact with each other, and reached a tacit understanding. Almost at the same time, the three forces split up and began to plunder the High Elves' treasure of knowledge.
Although the books and notes were very precious, there was still a difference in quality between them. However, no one could keep all the books for themselves. At this moment, it was time to test everyone's eyesight. Whoever could find the most valuable part of this ocean of knowledge would be the one who reaped the most benefits from this floor. This was also the tacit understanding that the three factions had reached in that second.
All the books and notes were shrouded in a faint magical halo, which seemed to be a very obvious sign. When mages edited their own works or notes, they would always attach their aura to the books and notes. Hence, the more powerful the author, the more magical halo their works would have.
