Coming out of the level certification room, Lin Li locked himself in his room again.
The duel with Cromwell would begin a day later, and before that, he still had a lot of things to prepare. As Old Grimm had said, a truly powerful mage must eliminate all accidents. Lin Li could not eliminate all accidents with his strength, so he had to prepare some small things for himself.
The Robe of Wrath that had been enchanted with the anti-magic attribute with the Abyss Mithril Gold Rod and could hold 30 scrolls was a must. Although the space of 30 scrolls was a little superficial, the anti-magic attribute enchanted on it was definitely something Lin Li needed. If it weren't for the Robe of Wrath on him at Castellan Isaac's banquet, how could Lin Li not have been hurt at all?
After choosing the mage robe, Lin Li rummaged through the Ring of Endless Storm.
But the result made him a little embarrassed. With his wealth in the Endless World, he had actually forgotten to prepare a set of equipment for his mage smurf. The Robe of Wrath had become the only thing he could bring out.
Hence, Lin Li had no choice but to take out the Winter Staff. It was the only piece of equipment that Andoine had given him. Although it was only a level-eight magical crystal of a Frost Behemoth, it was still a suitable weapon for Lin Li, who had always liked ice magic.
"Eh!" When he took out the Winter Staff from the Ring of Endless Storm, Lin Li suddenly saw two familiar things. It was a dirty canvas and a ring with a black diamond.
Lin Li vaguely remembered that these two things should have been contributed by the Leviathan Gorilla when he saved Ina.
The dirty canvas was quickly thrown aside by Lin Li. He couldn't understand what was drawn on it anyway, but the ring made him a little happy. It was something with a strong magical wave. When he found it in the tree hole of the Leviathan Gorilla, Lin Li knew that it was at least of the same level as the Robe of Wrath.
It was just that after coming to Jarrosus City, firstly, he couldn't use it for the time being, and secondly, he didn't have the time. After a while, he actually forgot about it …
Now that he had found it again, he decided to study it properly.
He first tried to infuse mana into the ring to see if he could trigger the magical properties of the ring itself. This was common sense that Andoine had taught him. If he got a piece of magical equipment that he could not determine its use, the best way was to infuse mana into it. Under the stimulation of mana, most magical equipment would reveal its own properties.
The common sense that Andoine had taught him was indeed correct. Just as Lin Li began to inject mana into the ring, the black diamond inlaid on it began to emit a faint light. The light was a little strange — deep and dark, just like the legendary eyes of the Abyssal Demons.
Seeing the reaction from the ring, Lin Li was even more confident.
He began to slowly increase the intensity of his magic power output. This was a process that required a lot of patience. If the magic power output was too fierce, it was very likely that a rare piece of magic equipment would be completely destroyed.
However, Lin Li soon discovered that he seemed to have been too careful.
The intensity of the mana output continued to increase, and the light of the black diamond became more and more dazzling. However, the true attributes of the ring were still not revealed. Lin Li began to get a little anxious, and the increase in the intensity of the mana began to increase gradually.
But that strange ring still did not change …
"F * ck! What the f * ck is this … "Lin Li could be said to be very familiar with his own mana. Now that he was close to the level of full output, even the most powerful magical equipment should have been activated with such a huge influx of mana. Why did this f * cking ring have no reaction at all?
"Could it be that I've found the wrong way?" Lin Li did not feel discouraged that the input of mana did not work. After all, this was only one of the ways to judge the attributes of magical equipment. It was just that it was the most widely used. Other than that, there were many other ways to activate it. Some creators would even deliberately set traps on the magical equipment.
Lin Li gently held the ring inlaid with the black diamond in his hand, and began to try to use his mental strength to penetrate it. Just like when he first created the gold rod, he used this trace of mental strength to establish a subtle relationship with the ring. Mental strength was a sensitive and delicate thing. Through this trace of mental strength, Lin Li could completely grasp any situation in the ring.
The moment the mental strength penetrated the black diamond, Lin Li felt the abnormality in it.
It was a very strange feeling. It was as if that trace of mental strength had completely transformed into Lin Li himself, and that small black diamond had become the whole world.
The world in the black diamond was just like the dark and deep light it emitted, with a thick and strange aura. When Lin Li's trace of mental strength penetrated it, he noticed the abnormality in it. It was endless darkness all around, and no matter how that trace of mental strength penetrated, it seemed to be unable to get rid of the shroud of darkness. A strong attractive force came from all directions, chaotic and violent, as if it wanted to completely tear that trace of mental strength into pieces.
The moment the strong attractive force came, Lin Li knew that he had done something stupid. The penetration of mental strength was a very dangerous thing to do, let alone a ring of unknown origin. If this trace of mental strength was completely torn apart, he would not be able to make up for the shortcomings left in his mental strength even if he made great progress in magic in the future.
However, it was too late for regrets at this time. Under the strong attractive force, that trace of mental strength could no longer be retrieved. Lin Li could only desperately stabilize his mind and carefully control that trace of mental strength to shuttle quickly in the darkness. His goal was the only light in the endless darkness.
The light was in the distance ahead. It was weak and flickering, but in the endless darkness, it seemed abnormally dazzling. The strong attractive force continued to tear the endless darkness in front of him. From time to time, he heard all kinds of voices that seemed to be whispers and murmurs. They were hoarse and low as if they were sleep-talking.
Along with these voices, there were all sorts of emotions such as sadness, joy, laughter, and tears. All of these emotions seemed to have surged into Lin Li's mind all of a sudden. Even with his insane mental strength, he almost collapsed in an instant.
After barely stabilizing his mind, Lin Li only felt cold sweat dripping down his back. This kind of pure mental strength attack was more terrifying than magic. If he was not careful, he would be doomed eternally. At this time, he had already begun to regret why he had taken the risk to use his mental strength to penetrate.
