The higher-ups of the Brilliance Shrine all knew that Lin Li was very likely to be the Son of The Holy Light in the prophecy of His Holiness. He had even helped His Holiness get rid of the Viper's poison, and was the benefactor of the entire Brilliance Shrine. Hence, when they heard that Lin Li wanted to meet His Holiness, they immediately brought him to the Dawn Cathedral on the peak of the Holy Mountain.
Lin Li and Pope Rosario talked alone for the entire night, and no one knew what they had talked about. They only knew that when Lin Li left, Pope Rosario personally sent him to the door of the Dawn Cathedral.
After walking out of the Dawn Cathedral, Lin Li did not say much to the crowd, and simply apologized before casting the Power of Flight and flying towards the Darkness Shrine.
In the Night Canyon, Lin Li landed on Obsidian Square, and was immediately surrounded by the believers of Darkness who had noticed him. However, before anyone could ask, Sendros had already walked out of the shrine, and invited Lin Li into the shrine while the believers of Darkness stared at him in bewilderment.
After a long night of conversation, Sendros stood on Obsidian Square and watched Lin Li leave the Night Canyon. He simply shook his head without saying anything in response to the questioning gazes of the few high priests around him.
The unique shape of the Tower of Dusk in the Breezy Plains had already become a wonder of Doland. It was unheard of to build a Mage Tower like a torch. In fact, even the mages of the Tower of Dusk did not know that the burning building on top of the tower was the legendary Eternal Furnace built by Highlord Osric, let alone outsiders.
Lin Li landed directly in the Black Front Fortress in the Eternal Furnace, where the Lich Ujfalusi, the Vampire Norfeller, and 40 Holy Death Knights were absorbing the transformed Death Aura in the Black Front Fortress. Ujfalusi and Norfeller's strength had already reached the peak of level-22, while the 40 Holy Death Knights were all level-18 or 19. It seemed that the Black Front Fortress that was built with the skeletons of the Titans was indeed very effective on Undead creatures.
"I saw the two magical crystals you traded. Are you going to get those two items this time?" Connoris asked Lin Li who was sizing up his Undead subordinates while standing in front of the gate of the Black Front Fortress.
"Yes, you should be aware of the recent happenings in the Tower of Dusk. I don't know how strong the other party is, so I can only try my best to improve my strength. Although those two magical crystals are of a lower level, they should be enough to maintain the Ice and Fire Domain, "Lin Li said as he turned around.
"Seems like you've gained a lot of benefits from this trip. You've actually …" Connoris finally felt the change in Lin Li. Although he had a deep understanding of Lin Li's perverseness, he could not help but be dumbfounded.
"Hehe, you might be scared to death if you talk about it. I did get some benefits, but I almost lost my life." Lin Li walked out of the Black Front Fortress, and told Connoris about his experiences while walking out with him.
"Damn it, Flame Dragon Lothar. Although that fella was defeated by Tyrant Balak, the fact that he was able to escape from Balak shows that he's very powerful." Connoris was secretly speechless, and secretly rejoiced that he had left Lin Li's body long ago. Otherwise, he would have been scared to death by Lin Li sooner or later.
"Can you guess why the Immortal King did not allow the Dragon of Destruction to appear?" Lin Li asked as he recalled the discussion he had with Nefa and Rogge. In the past, he would ask Connoris directly if he had any questions. Although Connoris was not straightforward with his words, he would always give him an answer in the end. However, Lin Li did not know how much Connoris knew about the Immortal King.
However, Connoris answered straightforwardly this time. He shook his head, and said, "How would I know? If I had reached the level of the Immortal King, I wouldn't have ended up like this."
Damn it, I knew it. What Soul Trader? It's all bullsh * t! Lin Li did not say anything, but immediately quickened his pace, and left the Eternal Furnace to enter the Tower of Dusk.
The President is back! The first mage who saw Lin Li rubbed his eyes in disbelief, and forgot to greet him for a moment. He only reacted when he heard that Lin Li had asked him to look for Gavin. At the same time that the mage went to look for Gavin, the news of Lin Li's return spread quickly, and the Tower of Dusk was in an uproar.
Recently, the business of the Tower of Dusk had been obstructed by unknown forces, which made every mage of the Tower of Dusk feel extremely depressed. It was not that they were afraid of the enemy, but rather that they had to know who their opponent was even if they wanted to fight desperately. Everyone knew that those who jumped out were just insignificant figures, and the real opponents were still hiding behind the scenes. What was the point of dealing with those insignificant figures? Instead, it would give others something to use against the Tower of Dusk, and they would criticize the credibility of the Tower of Dusk.
However, Lin Li had returned now! Back then, when the Tower of Dusk was attacked by the Dark Blade, Lin Li returned and defeated the two Legendary powerhouses of the Dark Blade with just one magic spell. And this time, those forces that were playing tricks behind the scenes could only wait for their bad luck! The mages of the Tower of Dusk all had similar blind admiration and trust for Lin Li. They all believed that there was no problem that the young President could not solve.
"President, I'm sorry, this is my negligence," Gavin immediately apologized with a guilty expression after seeing Lin Li.
"It is indeed your negligence, and you will be punished, but not now. Now, go and choose 40 mages according to their strength. I have something to do, so we'll talk about it later. "Lin Li waved his hand and let Gavin leave the room. Although the stolen items weren't of much value to him, and betrayal was inevitable for a force, it couldn't be denied that Gavin was indeed responsible for it. Although he had always been satisfied with Gavin's work, Lin Li could not ignore this matter easily this time.
Soon, Gavin selected 40 Archmages, each of whom was level-18 or 19, and even close to the Legendary-realm. There was also Alan, who had stepped into the Legendary-realm. Lin Li did not say much to them, and simply told them to follow him. He then led them out of the Tower of Dusk, and headed towards the Dragon Mountains.
As soon as the team entered the mountains, the sky suddenly darkened, and the massive Humerus Wyrm appeared above the team with the Lich Ujfalusi. A black bolt of lightning landed beside Lin Li, and revealed its figure. It was the Vampire Norfeller. The mages of the Tower of Dusk were already very familiar with the two Undead servants. Hence, although their appearance was a little sudden, it did not cause any special reactions from the crowd.
However, soon, there was a dense and hurried sound of hooves, and a team of 40 Holy Death Knights, led by a Holy Retribution Knight, caught up with the team from behind. Although the Holy Death Knights lived at the top of the Tower of Dusk, no one had ever seen them before. At this moment, the mages of the team began to get nervous.
However, after the Holy Death Knights caught up with the team, they immediately slowed down, and did not show any intention of attacking. That made the mages secretly heave a sigh of relief. At the same time, they also understood that the terrifying Holy Knights were also the subordinates of the young President.
However, it was not over yet. An alchemy flying tool landed in front of the team, and it turned out to be Connoris who got off the flying tool and put it away using an Alchemy Array. He then walked towards Lin Li.
"Don't you know how to fly? Why did you bring such a thing over? I thought that coward Angelano followed us too." Lin Li rolled his eyes at Connoris in disdain.
Previously, Lin Li had also wanted to bring Angelano along. After all, the Titan-level Alchemy Colossus was already close to the Sanctuary-realm, and it should be of some use to deal with the Retribution Knight Rodhart. However, Angelano was not his servant, after all. As soon as he heard that he was going to fight a terrifying enemy, he shook his head vigorously without waiting for Lin Li to say anything.
"That cowardly Goblin made it. Don't you think that this thing will definitely fetch a good price if we sell it?" Connoris followed Lin Li as he excitedly talked about the business opportunity that he had discovered.
"Let's wait until we get past this stage," Lin Li said, pouring cold water on him without holding back.
Although Lin Li had been very calm about the matter this time, it did not mean that he did not take it seriously. In fact, he knew very well that the trouble that the Tower of Dusk had encountered this time was definitely much more serious than any of the previous ones. The fact that the Blood Moon Clan could survive until now as a remnant of the High Elves and become one of the largest underground forces of the Breezy Plains showed how terrifying they were. The Mithril Alliance had been passed down from the Dark Age when the High Elves ruled, and later managed to stand up to the Blood Moon Clan. If they did not have some tricks up their sleeves, they would have probably been destroyed long ago.
Apart from those two forces, Lin Li could think of the other top forces of the Breezy Plains that probably played a certain role in this matter. Those top forces that had been operating for thousands of years and had long been deeply rooted in the Breezy Plains might not be famous, but each of them was definitely not simple.
It could be said that this time, the Tower of Dusk was no longer facing a single force, but the entire Breezy Plains. If they could get through this, everything would naturally be fine. From then on, the Tower of Dusk would become the top force of the Breezy Plains. If they could not, they would be in huge trouble, and might even be removed from the Breezy Plains.
That was the reason that Lin Li had no choice but to lead his subordinates to the underground palace as soon as he returned, even though he had yet to figure out Rodhart's background and come up with the safest solution. He had to obtain Polar Snow and Raging Flames, even if he had to destroy the Ice and Fire Natural Domain. He would only have the confidence to lead the Tower of Dusk through this obstacle if he had all seven pieces of the debris of the stars.
The Dragon Mountains, which used to be the lair of the Syer Bandits, had now become dilapidated. Lin Li led the team through the collapsed walls and broken walls. Soon, they arrived at the back of the mountain that was filled with strange rocks. In front of the inconspicuous cave, Lin Li paused for a moment, feeling a little nervous. After all, he was about to face the Retribution Knight Rodhart, who had once made the entire Breezy Plains tremble.
After passing through the dark cave, the majestic underground palace finally appeared in Lin Li's line of sight again. At this moment, the mages in the team finally knew that their President had brought them there to hunt for treasures. All of a sudden, everyone was a little dumbfounded. Many of them were born and raised in the Breezy Plains, but they had never heard of such a place in the Dragon Mountains.
After walking through the long corridor, the team arrived in front of a palace. Lin Li slowly pushed the door of the palace open, and the magic lamps that had been extinguished when he left lit up one by one. At the instant that the door was pushed open, the massive and suffocating aura surged out like a flood.
This time, Lin Li's strength was no longer what it used to be, and he did not feel the slightest discomfort in the face of the terrifying aura. However, the mages behind Lin Li could not help but exclaim when they sensed the terrifying aura. After all, Lin Li had already stepped into the Legendary-realm when he first came, and the mages of the Tower of Dusk were all Archmages apart from Alan.
Lin Li strode into the palace, and his footsteps sounded extremely abrupt in the silent palace. Connoris and the Undead servants followed behind him slowly. Although the mages could feel the terror in the palace, they still followed Lin Li without hesitation when they saw him walking in.
Finally, the throne that was made up of wyrm skeletons and the figure sitting on the throne with a sharp sword in his hand gradually appeared in front of everyone. He had long silver hair and was wearing a dark golden knight's armor that was engraved with exquisite mageweaths. The joints were decorated with hideous single-horned demons' skulls, and the scarlet cloak behind him seemed to be the color of coagulated blood.
"Have you thought of how to deal with him?" Connoris asked softly. Although he had obtained Osric's perfect body, it was originally created by Osric for himself. After he occupied it, the speed of fusion was very slow, and he still could not exert the power of the Sanctuary-realm. Hence, Connoris was rather fearful of the Sanctuary-realm Retribution Knight Rodhart.
"I don't know, but I'll use all my means. I don't believe that I can't deal with him," Lin Li said. He did not immediately go to the secret chamber below to get Polar Snow and Raging Flames. Instead, he continuously took out various precious magical materials from the Ring of Endless Storm.
The first thing Lin Li set up was the Requiem Array that had once expiated the Titan Spirit. The Alchemy Array could convert mana into Divine Power, and was said to be able to purify all evil forces in the world. Of course, it was just a name. Although Lin Li had used the Requiem Array to expiate the level-25 Titan Spirit, he dared not expect it to be absolutely effective on Rodhart now.
