Next, Lin Li pointed the Helios' Scepter forward, and a Six-pointed Star Array appeared on the ground out of nowhere. The tall Demon Gordon thumped his chest and walked out of the Six-pointed Star Array with heavy steps. Although Gordon's strength was not worth mentioning in the Sky Castle where countless demons were imprisoned, and Lin Li had subdued him out of curiosity, he still had a lot of strength. However, after devouring the various precious metals that Lin Li had fed him, including a piece of Divinity Metal, his strength had improved considerably, and he could at least be considered a force to be reckoned with.
After summoning the Lord of Nightmares, the Crimson Dragon, and Demon Gordon, Lin Li did not stop. 10 Shadow Assassin puppets made of Shadow Iron appeared beside him in the blink of an eye. Lin Li had obtained 20 Shadow Assassins in the Sky Castle, and had used them for the first time when he was dealing with the Dark Blade. However, at that time, he had only sealed the souls of some magical beasts in the alchemy puppets, and could not exert the full power of the Shadow Assassins.
This time, in order to explore Osric's mausoleum, Lin Li had specially sealed the souls of the assassins that Ujfalusi had secretly collected during the battle with the Dark Blade in the 10 alchemy puppets, making them real Shadow Assassins. Although the souls of the assassins were not powerful enough to make the Shadow Assassins reach the Legendary-level, they were still at the peak of level-19. With the characteristics of the Shadow Iron, the combat power that they could exert was definitely not just at level-19.
Looking at the Crimson Dragon that was circling above his head, the Lord of Nightmares that was shrouded in black fog on Lin Li's left, the tall Demon Gordon that was glowing with a metallic luster on his right, and the 10 Shadow Assassins that were like shadows that exuded a dangerous aura, everyone was shocked speechless. Others would at most have one or two trump cards up their sleeves, but this young Legendary-mage actually had a whole bunch of trump cards in his hands. How could he let others live? Of course, in the current situation, the more trump cards Lin Li had, the more hope everyone felt. They could not wait for him to take out one of the trump cards and destroy the Zago Demons instantly.
Rosen was the only one who looked at the trump cards that Lin Li had thrown out with a sullen expression. He was not worried about what would happen next, but rather angry at Lin Li for not taking them out previously. If he had used them against the silver-armored Death Knight, he wouldn't have had to rush to use the Wyrm Summoning Staff.
However, even though everyone was frightened, Lin Li did not stop moving. He took out a magic scroll from the Ring of Endless Storm, tore it open, and a huge Six-pointed Star Array flashed in front of him. Next, the Lich Ujfalusi, the Vampire Norfeller, and 18 Death Knights who were riding on Shapeshifters and exuding a strong death aura gradually appeared in the Six-pointed Star Array.
It was a Summoning Scroll of Slaves. As long as it was a slave that had formed a Soul Contract with Lin Li, it would be instantly summoned to its master's side no matter where it was in Anril. It was also because of this scroll that Lin Li did not directly bring the two Undead servants into the mausoleum. Instead, he planned to use them as a surprise attack. However, it was no longer meaningful now. If they could not get through the crisis in front of them, everything else would be useless.
Rosen also knew about the two Undead servants, Ujfalusi and Norfeller. Hence, when he saw that Lin Li had summoned them, he thought to himself that Lin Li had finally used all his trump cards.
However, Lin Li could not be bothered to talk to the two Undead servants. Instead, he raised his arm again, and pointed the Dream Garden in front of him. "My little ancestor, hurry up and come out, or I'm going to die!" Lin Li muttered with a helpless and bitter smile on his face.
Finally, a small head popped out of the Dream Garden and looked at the surroundings, especially at the Zago Demons that were getting closer and closer. It then flew out reluctantly and landed on Lin Li's shoulder. It pulled Lin Li's ear with its little claws, seemingly blaming him for disturbing its sweet dreams.
Compared to when it was just born, there was almost no change in the size of the tender Elemental Wyrm Xiao Hua. However, the patterns and spots on its body had become much clearer and more gorgeous. After absorbing the mana of the Sky Castle's magical crystal in the chaos of time and space for half a year, its strength was already worlds apart from when it was first born. Although it was still in its infancy, it had already broken through the threshold of the Legendary-level, and its strength was no weaker than that of the Elemental Wyrm's projected avatar.
If the trump cards that Lin Li had revealed previously had only surprised Rosen, the appearance of the petite and adorable tender Elemental Wyrm Xiao Hua completely shocked Rosen. Although it was only the size of a palm, it looked like a pet that women loved, and the mana that it emitted was only about level-21 or level-22, the pure and mighty Menace of the Dragon that it exuded made people involuntarily worship it. Even a level-23 Legendary-mage like Rosen seemed to feel incomparably small under the mighty Menace of the Dragon. It was a feeling that he had never felt before, even when he was in front of the arbitrators.
Looking at Lin Li's surroundings, Rosen could never have imagined that this young mage would have such a terrifying power. It was no wonder that this young mage could lead the Guild of Magic that had been established for less than two years, and act unscrupulously in the Breezy Plains. Not to mention in the Breezy Plains, even in the entire Felan Kingdom, there were probably only a few forces that could rival them.
Glancing at Andoine who was not far away, Rosen was filled with jealousy and hatred. He really didn't know what kind of luck his competitor had to have to accept such a student. Compared to Andoine's student, Gryffindor, who was known as a magic genius and the successor of Geresco, was simply a huge joke.
"Damn it, is this little bastard the illegitimate son of the Goddess of Fate? Why does he always get lucky?" Seeing that the student he had picked up had achieved so much in just two years, Andoine was naturally gratified.
When Andoine first picked up Lin Li in the Sunset Mountains, Lin Li was alone, and he couldn't even be considered an apprentice in magic. Now, in just less than two years, Lin Li had already become a level-23 Legendary-mage. In terms of status, he was the dignified President of the Breezy Plains Guild of Magic, and the Tower of Dusk had also become a major force in the Breezy Plains.
In two years, Lin Li had already reached a height that most people could not reach in their lifetime, which was something that Andoine had never expected at the beginning. Not to mention those who were not talented in magic, even if they were recognized as geniuses in magic, how many of them would linger outside the Legendary-realm for their entire lives?
Although Aldwin and Macklin did not come into contact with Lin Li as early as Andoine, Lin Li was only a Magic Shooter when he went to the Alanna Guild of Magic for the trial. At that time, the magic talent that Lin Li showed had already surprised the two old men. Now, looking at how long it had only been since that trial, Lin Li's growth rate was so fast that even the God of Mages, Geresco, might not have been as insane back then.
As Lin Li threw out his trump cards one after another, the short few seconds felt like an eternity to them. The shock in their hearts was more than the sum of their entire lives. While they were shocked, they seemed to have seen a glimmer of hope. Although they were going to face the Zago Demons, looking at the powerful subordinates around Lin Li, it might not be impossible for them to overcome the difficulties in front of them.
Throwing out all his trump cards? Don't forget that Lin Li still had four powerful pieces of the debris of the stars in his hands. However, even so, Lin Li still felt that the situation in front of him was not optimistic. Unlike the others, Lin Li knew more about the terror of Tyrant Balak and the Zago Demons. With the power that he had, it was obviously still far from being able to survive in a hopeless situation.
Finally, after the Legendary powerhouses released their respective Magical Domains, the vanguard of the Zago Demon army rushed up the hill where the crowd was. A battle that seemed hopeless to the crowd broke out as the two sides collided. In the blink of an eye, the crowd was drowned by the terrifying Black Current that was formed by countless Zago Demons. They formed a battle circle and were like reefs in the tide, enduring the impact of the waves.
The one that rushed at the front was the cannon fodder of the Zago Demons, a type of demon known as the Sickle Black-armored Demons. However, it should not be forgotten that this was the 72nd floor of the abyss. Even if they were cannon fodder, it was only relative to the more powerful demons. To the human team, the Sickle Black-armored Demons were all above level-15, and were simply the most elite warriors.
The Sickle Black-armored Demon looked like a killer mantis among insects, but each of them was as tall as two people. They were covered with hard and smooth black carapace, and their two forearms were huge dark red sickles. There were even horrifying fine serrations on the blades of the sickles, which could easily split a person in half. Even the Elemental Shields of the mages could only last for a moment under the terrifying attack of the sickles.
Due to the large number of mages, they had the largest area of contact with the Zago Demon army even though they had shrunk their formation under Macklin's command. In the face of the tide-like attacks of the Zago Demons, the impact they suffered was several times greater than that of the Legendary-mages. Fortunately, Macklin had the Commander's Badge that the High Elves' Magic Legion had once used, and the Mental Network connected everyone as a whole. In the past, they would have to be extremely careful to cast a joint spell, but under the connection of the huge Mental Network, it was like casting a spell by one person, and there were no harsh restrictions.
After all, these mages were the elites of the elites, and they had truly experienced life and death situations. Although they could not help but feel fear and despair when they saw the Black Current formed by the Zago Demons surging towards them, there was only determination and seriousness on everyone's face when the real battle began.
It could be said that when there was no battle, they were still alive and had all kinds of emotions that humans should have. However, after the battle began, they became parts of the sophisticated machine that was the mages. Be it positive or negative emotions, they were all immediately forgotten at this moment. If the commander needed them, they wouldn't even take a second look even if their best companions or brothers died in front of them. Even if they had to use their bodies to block the enemy's attacks, they wouldn't frown or hesitate at all.
A row of mages pointed the Crescent Staffs in their hands in front of them in unison, and an ice wall that was several meters wide instantly blocked the path of the Zago Demons. Unfortunately, the ice wall that was stronger than a real city wall seemed to be made of paper in front of the Sickle Black-armored Demons. Through the crystal clear ice wall, the densely packed figures of the Sickle Black-armored Demons could be seen. In the blink of an eye, the dark red sickles had already penetrated the ice wall, and web-like cracks quickly spread from the breach to all directions.
However, just as the Sickle Black-armored Demons broke through the ice wall, the overwhelming magic spells had already swept over, and engulfed the Sickle Black-armored Demons at the front along with the broken ice wall in an instant. Just as the magic storm was about to end, another stronger ice wall was erected near the original position almost without any interruption.
It was also considered a team battle, but compared to the Alanna mages, Lin Li's side seemed to be much messier. The Light and Darkness Domain had been fully activated, and 10 Shadow Assassins were hidden in the darkness. From time to time, their figures would flash beside the Sickle Black-armored Demons, and their extremely sharp blades would always be able to accurately pierce through the gaps in the solid and smooth carapace. When the Sickle Black-armored Demons noticed them, they had already hidden in the darkness again, and even hid in the shadows of the Sickle Black-armored Demons.
However, although the attacks of the Shadow Assassins were sharp, the damage that they could cause to the Zago Demons was almost negligible. The vitality of the Zago Demons was famous for being tenacious. Not to mention piercing the body of the Sickle Black-armored Demons, even if their heads were chopped off, they would still be able to continue fighting for a long time while spurting blood. Hence, after discovering this situation, Lin Li had no choice but to order the Shadow Assassins to target the joints of the demons. He did not want to kill the enemies with a single blow, but as long as they could make the enemies lose their combat power, it would be a good method.
The 10 Shadow Assassins were considered a small combat team. However, due to the fact that the characteristics of the battle were mainly assassination, it was impossible for them to form a battle formation and fight the enemies face to face. On Lin Li's side, the only ones that could really be considered a team battle were the 18 Death Knights who had followed him since a long time ago.
