The sudden influx of emotions tore at Lin Li's mental strength. At that moment, he felt like he had completely broken down. It was as if he was suffering from schizophrenia. One moment he was laughing, and the next moment he was crying. Along with the crying and laughing came bursts of tearing pain. The pain that gushed out from the depths of his mind had nothing to do with his physical body. It was the purest form of agony. He could not divert his attention, nor could he alleviate it. He could only let it wreak havoc in his mind.
Under the torture of this inhuman pain, Lin Li felt like he had gone mad. No one knew how long this pain lasted. It could be a second, or a year. Just as Lin Li was on the verge of breaking down, a ray of light tore through the endless darkness …
It was as if a red sun rose from the east in the darkest moment before dawn. The rays of light shone through and filled the entire world with vitality. That was what Lin Li felt now. After the ray of light tore through the endless darkness, endless light shone through and swept away the haze. The world became pure at once.
The dream-like voice disappeared from his ears, and the various emotions disappeared without a trace. Through that trace of mental strength, Lin Li could clearly feel a sense of tranquility and peace.
Other than that dazzling light, there was still an endless void around him. There was neither time nor space. There was only the purest and most primitive nothingness. It was as if everything was just for the existence of this light.
After a short moment of respite, Lin Li extended his mental strength again, and quietly explored that patch of light …
With the previous lesson, he did not dare to be careless. Everything was carried out carefully. The extremely weak trace of mental strength was divided into dozens of tentacles, and probed one by one.
The light seemed to contain some kind of power and Rules, and it maintained a tenacious and unyielding resistance against the invasion of Lin Li's mental strength. The resistance made the invasion extremely difficult, and Lin Li had no choice but to control the wisps of mental strength to wander around in search of a gap to invade.
This was a process that was filled with patience. After thousands of attempts, a trace of mental strength finally penetrated …
The moment his mental strength invaded the ring, it fused with the light. At the same time, there seemed to be a loud bang in the depths of Lin Li's mind. It was a complete fusion, and it felt like a soldering iron had landed on the ring and branded Lin Li's unique mark.
This brand was more thorough than the one on the metal rod. The metal rod was only controlled by a trace of mental strength, but this time, Lin Li had completely left his own Mental Brand on the ring, making the entire ring a part of his mental strength. He did not need any mana or mental connection at all. He could activate the attributes on the ring with just a thought.
"Good stuff …" After leaving his mark on the ring, Lin Li fully understood what kind of magical equipment it was. He had never thought that a level-eight magical beast like the Leviathan Gorilla could contribute such a powerful collection.
The real strength of this ring was that it could create an elemental channel in an instant. It could lead all the magical elements that might hurt the wearer into this special channel. The magical elements that were led in would be stored in a complete form. Be it the elemental arrangement or the magic structure, there would not be any changes. When needed, the owner of the ring could also release the stored magic through the activation of mana …
The only thing that Lin Li felt regretful about was that this channel could only be created once a day, and the magic that could be guided could not be more than five levels higher than his own level.
But apart from these two flaws, this ring with the black diamond embedded in it could be said to be perfect and flawless. Not only did it give him a chance to be immune to magic, but it also gave him a powerful spell for free. If he used this ring well, with Lin Li's current abilities, he might even have a chance to defeat an Archmage …
"Not bad, not bad …" After putting on the ring contentedly, Lin Li grinned until his eyes were squinted. After being happy for a long time, he suddenly remembered that such a useful magical equipment did not have a name. "Since it uses a channel to be immune to magic … I'll just call it Torrent of Elements …"
With this Torrent of Elements Ring, Lin Li felt that he didn't need to look for Gerian anymore. The Guild of Magic had been very poor in recent years, and the only few pieces of magical equipment that could be taken out were probably those contributed by the Mannes Family last time. The magical equipment placed in the guild warehouse either improved mental strength or provided mana. Why would a monster like Lin Li, who was similar to a magical beast, need this little bit of improvement?
Looking through the Ring of Endless Storm again, there seemed to be no usable equipment …
Hence, Lin Li naturally started thinking about potions.
After selecting a few commonly used herbs, Lin Li hesitated a little, and carefully took out a black lotus petal.
This was probably the so-called character determines fate. If Gerian was the one fighting this duel, with the old man's arrogant character and facing an opponent he had defeated easily before, he might really go straight to the duel without even taking his staff …
But Lin Li had always been cautious. Even if he was facing Cromwell, whom he had easily defeated, he still wanted to be fully prepared before the duel. Although the black lotus petal was precious, it was really not worth mentioning compared to his own life.
Besides, he would not be so naive to think that this duel would really be so easy.
Old Merlin had clearly seen everything that happened in the Emerald Tower that day. With his eyesight, how could he not see that Cromwell was not Lin Li's opponent at all? He was not an idiot. How could he send the only heir of the Merlin Family to his death knowing that there was a great disparity in strength?
With all these unreasonable points, Lin Li was almost certain that the Merlin Family definitely had a powerful backup in this duel. The Cromwell who would appear in the Daylight Square tomorrow was definitely much stronger than the one he knew!
