Sometimes, when something was truly beyond imagination, it would cause people to lose their imagination. In the eyes of the mages, the huge crystal could be some kind of magical crystal or something else, but it definitely couldn't be a magical crystal.
"What we have to do is actually the same as usual. We just have to meditate here and accumulate mana. On the bookshelf over there are the magic books that Mr. President brought back from the Haiga Mountain Range. They are complete magic teaching materials used by the High Elves from the Dark Age. During this period of time, if you have any questions, you can go there to find the answers on your own. If you can't find the answer, Mr. President will also give you an answer … "Gavin said before choosing a place to sit down, and began to meditate.
After hearing Gavin's instructions, everyone was actually somewhat disappointed. Could they really improve their abilities greatly in a short period of time just by meditating and studying as usual?
However, when everyone sat down and began to meditate, they were so shocked that they almost screamed out loud.
When mages meditated, they would capture the magical elements in the space, and then convert them into their own mana to store. They would then continuously expand the limits of their storage. Be it the process of capturing or converting, it would consume a certain amount of mental strength of the mage.
However, these mages had just begun meditating, and had yet to mobilize their mental strength when the massive amount of mana around them surged into their bodies like a flood. It was too frightening. This was not meditation at all, but the mana that was surging in crazily. In just an instant, they could already feel an obvious increase in their abilities.
With Lin Li's current abilities at the peak of level-23, the mana he obtained by standing beside the control crystal for a moment was equivalent to that of a week of meditation. Needless to say, these mages were only level-19. There was even a level-15 Archmage who reached level-16 after sitting down for a while.
If it weren't for the sake of maintaining the normal operation of the Tower of Dusk's competitive mechanism, Lin Li could totally let the hundreds of mages of the Tower of Dusk join in, and create a large number of Archmages in a short period of time. However, the Tower of Dusk now had 20 alchemy puppets that Lin Li had brought back, and it could be said that there was no lack of combat power below the Legendary-level. Most importantly, they had Legendary-level combat power. Lin Li hoped that there would be Legendary-mages who truly belonged to the Tower of Dusk among the 40 mages during this period of nurturing.
Several level-19 mages stood up. They knew that they would reach the peak of level-19 very soon, but they were still very far away from the Legendary-realm. They were already the cream of the crop, so they naturally hoped that they could improve further during this period of time. They didn't want to fade into the crowd when they left.
For mages below the Legendary-realm, the way to increase their strength was to accumulate mana. However, if they wanted to step into the Legendary-realm, they would need to enrich their magical knowledge as a foundation to understand and feel the mysteries of Rule Power. The level-19 mages led by Elven were full of anticipation for the magic book that their president had brought back from the Haiga Mountain Range.
The High Elves Print was a compulsory language for the mages of the Tower of Dusk. Hence, it was not difficult for them to read those magic books. However, the first person who got the magic book frowned slightly after flipping through it. He muttered, "This … This doesn't seem to be much."
The others also took down the magic book from the bookshelf and flipped through it in bewilderment. At first, they were indeed a little puzzled, but as they read more, they gradually understood the value of those magic books. The problems that had troubled them in the past were easily solved as they read. They could also find ways to correct their misconceptions and small problems that they usually didn't think much of. They could clearly feel that the theoretical knowledge in the magic book was like a key that slowly opened the door to the Legendary-realm for them.
"Tegel, why are you back? Has the Dark Blade retreated?" Sorenson, the patriarch of the Malfa Family, asked in surprise when he saw Tegel and the others who had suddenly returned from the Tower of Dusk.
"The Dark Blade did not retreat …" Tegel and the others thought of the scene that day, and their expressions became rather unnatural. The shock that the young President had given them was too great. No one dared to believe that the young President was actually only in his early twenties.
However, Sorenson took the expressions of Tegel and the others to mean something else. Hence, he asked in a low voice, "If the Dark Blade did not retreat, could it be that the Tower of Dusk has been conquered?"
Sorenson couldn't help but secretly hate the elders. If they hadn't objected, he wouldn't have sent only Tegel and the other four over. Now that the Dark Blade had conquered the Tower of Dusk, their strength would definitely increase greatly in a short period of time. Those lunatics were probably going to deal with the Malfa Family next. However, what the Malfa Family needed now was not war, but time for development.
"No, no, it's the President of the Tower of Dusk. He's back," Tegel hurriedly explained.
"What? The young President of the Tower of Dusk is back!?" Sorenson immediately stood up in shock when he heard the news.
"Yes, Patriarch. Not only did President Felic return, he even severely injured Borg of the Dark Blade with a single blow." Even now, Tegel still shuddered when he recalled the destructive blow of the Light and Darkness Sword.
"He only used one blow …" Sorenson couldn't help but clench his fists. Although he had heard from his father that President Felic of the Tower of Dusk had reached the peak of level-22, he reckoned that even a level-22 Legendary powerhouse might not be able to severely injure Borg, the old rival of the Malfa Family, with a single blow.
"Later on, Borg and Baldela joined forces, but they only lasted for a short while before their power was sealed by President Felic using some unknown magic. The Dark Blade's attack on the Tower of Dusk was completely destroyed." Sorenson was already finding it hard to accept, but Tegel continued to say something even more unbelievable.
Damn it, this is too crazy. Did that young President Felic be nurtured by the gods for half a year!? Sorenson sat back in his chair and looked at the other four mages beside Tegel, but he could tell from their expressions that Tegel was not lying.
"Prepare the gifts, Tegel will be the messenger … Wait, I'll go there personally. Also, keep an eye on the properties of the Tower of Dusk in the city, and don't let anyone infringe on them. Otherwise, they will be killed without mercy! " After all, Sorenson was the patriarch of the Malfa Family. Hence, he quickly suppressed the shock in his heart, and made new arrangements for the new changes.
Sorenson was no longer a child, and he would not blindly worship anyone. He would not always think that his idol was invincible. He knew that Tegel and the others were not lying, and he also knew that even if his father, Cheyenne, had broken through to level-22 this time, he would not be able to defeat Borg and Baldela alone. The young President of the Tower of Dusk was definitely terrifyingly powerful. Fortunately, the Malfa Family had not done anything to harm the interests of the Tower of Dusk in the past six months.
"The young President of the Tower of Dusk is back! He defeated Borg and Baldela of the Dark Blade all by himself! "
A shocking piece of news spread out from the Malfa Family, and spread throughout the entire Breezy Plains in various ways in a very short period of time.
Horrifying shrieks could be heard in the Castellan Mansion of Doland City at night. According to the servants of the Castellan Mansion, the domineering young master was almost beaten to death by the enraged castellan. If not for the fact that the castellan's wife tried her best to hold him back, Doland City would have lost a major scourge. Everyone who heard the news shook their heads and sighed. Indeed, scourges could live for thousands of years.
Castellan Arathor of Roland City immediately summoned Sienna, the leader of the mercenary corps, who had been neglected for a long time. After a secret discussion, Sienna left Roland City with a lot of gifts. Next, Arathor ordered the constables in the city to investigate all the cases of robbery and vandalism in the past six months, claiming that they had to give the victims a fair and satisfactory explanation. All of a sudden, the entire Roland City seemed to have entered a state of war. A large number of city guards shuttled through the city, and the illegal groups were uprooted one by one.
"Pa!"
William was so angry that his face turned pale. He pointed at a steward in front of him who had a palm print on his face. His fingers were trembling with anger. "Who allowed you to change the terms of cooperation? Who gave you such authority!?"
"Master William, I'm doing this for the good of the Time Consignment Store. We can definitely reap greater benefits from the cooperation with the Tower of Dusk," the steward explained with a terrified expression.
"You!"
William was helpless too. Who would have thought that the young President, who had been confirmed dead by the Malfa Family and the elves, would miraculously return after half a year, and become even more terrifying? That young President was not a magnanimous person. If he knew that such a problem had arisen during the past six months …
"No matter what method you use, find the person in charge of the Tower of Dusk here, and return them the benefits that you've obtained by changing the terms of the agreement in the past six months. Also, sign a new agreement, and give up a portion of the benefits on the basis of the previous agreement. Also, if you dare to act on your own again, I'll skin you alive! Scram! "William was also infuriated. Otherwise, he wouldn't have said such ruthless words.
The news spread from the Malfa Family, and quickly spread throughout the Breezy Plains through various means. Although those who had interacted with Lin Li were shocked by his strength, they had no choice but to believe that any miracle was possible when it came to the young President.
However, there were still many forces of various sizes who scoffed at the news from the Malfa Family. In their opinion, it was very likely that the Malfa Family had released fake news in order to fully take over the Tower of Dusk. The two Legendary leaders of the Dark Blade were famous powerhouses in the Breezy Plains. Even if the young President of the Tower of Dusk were to return, he wouldn't be able to defeat the two of them with a single move and seal their power. That was simply a myth.
"Mr. President, the patriarch of the Malfa Family, Sorenson, is waiting for you in the guest hall."
"Mr. President, the castellan of Doland City has sent a gift to congratulate you on your safe return. The messenger is waiting for you in the guest hall …"
"Mr. President, Castellan Arathor of Roland City has sent a messenger …"
"Mr. President, the Time Consignment Store …"
After arranging the special training for the mages, Lin Li began to answer some questions for Wilkinson and the rest in the following days. However, at this time, prominent figures of the Breezy Plains arrived at the Tower of Dusk one after another with valuable gifts.
In particular, the patriarch of the Malfa Family, the top family of the Breezy Plains, Sorenson, had come personally. This undoubtedly placed the Tower of Dusk on the same level as the Malfa Family, or even higher. Although Cheyenne had personally come to invite Lin Li more than half a year ago, Cheyenne had already stepped down as the patriarch, after all. Only the current patriarch, Sorenson, could truly represent the attitude of the entire Malfa Family.
The castellan of Doland City directly kidnapped his son, saying that he would let the Tower of Dusk deal with him as they pleased. He even transferred the ownership of a nearby mine to the Tower of Dusk.
Castellan Arathor of Roland City had originally wanted to entrust Sienna to be the messenger, but after considering that Sienna had been neglected for a period of time, he decided to bring his children to the Tower of Dusk. No matter what, his children were also Lin Li's acknowledged students. With this relationship, everything would be easier to negotiate.
"Beckley, calculate the losses of our businesses in the past six months. It's time to settle some accounts with them," Lin Li said to the middle-aged mage Beckley who was beside him after sending a group of messengers away.
Beckley did not have much talent in magic, and had only broken through level-10 at the age of 50 to become a Magic Shooter. He also knew that he had reached the end of the path of magic. Hence, he focused most of his energy on the business of the Tower of Dusk, and gradually became Gavin's right-hand man. This time, Beckley followed Lin Li around to deal with all aspects of matters when Gavin participated in the special training.
In the past six months, Beckley had long been frustrated after seeing the business of the Tower of Dusk being continuously attacked by various forces. In fact, with the strength of the Tower of Dusk, it would be easy for them to deal with most of the forces even if Lin Li did not intervene. After all, not every force had a Legendary powerhouse. However, the Tower of Dusk was constantly attacked by the Dark Blade, and could not muster the strength to deal with the clowns. They could only watch as the losses were recorded one after another.
After the news of Lin Li's return to the Tower of Dusk spread, the Tower of Dusk became extremely crowded during this period of time, and the leaders of the major forces came to visit with lavish gifts. Although the arrival of those big shots was not publicized, and was instead rather secretive, they were all influential figures in the Breezy Plains, after all. Hence, it was inevitable that some observant people would notice some clues.
