Although there were only five major families left, the Mithril Alliance was still the top force in the Breezy Plains, and the middle-aged mage was Joseph Taylor, the current patriarch of the Taylor Family. He was also the person in charge of the Mithril Alliance for the past 10 years.
Although Joseph did not see Lin Li attack, he felt the huge shock in his soul when he rushed over just now. It was said that the President of the Tower of Dusk had level-23 power, but based on his personal experience just now, Joseph could conclude that the massive and unstoppable mental strength was definitely not just level-23.
"Patriarch Joseph, you have to avenge us." When Charles heard the conversation between Joseph and Lin Li, he knew what kind of situation he and his subordinates would be facing. His face immediately turned pale. Although those mages were not all of the mages in the family, they had caused such a huge loss all of a sudden. He was afraid that he would not be able to keep his position as the patriarch anymore.
Looking at the dejected mages who were crawling up from the ground, Joseph felt like his heart was bleeding. The five major families were not living very well now, and the loss of talents was the biggest problem they were currently facing. However, dozens of mages whom they had high hopes for were now crippled by Lin Li in the blink of an eye. That was really one disaster after another for the Mithril Alliance. Although these mages were all members of Charles' Dida Family, how could Joseph not understand the principle that they were bound together for good or bad?
Looking at Charles who was grabbing his sleeve, a trace of disgust flashed in Joseph's eyes. If it weren't for the fact that the former patriarch of the Dida Family had suffered a backlash when summoning the Abyssal Demon Dragon, how could a good-for-nothing like Charles have taken over as the patriarch? Those in the Dida Family who had the intention of nurturing puppets probably hadn't realized it. Although good-for-nothings were easier to control, they were more likely to cause trouble.
However, the alliance had its own rules, and even the person in charge could not interfere with the internal affairs of the member families. Joseph took a deep breath, and said, "Don't worry, I think the Ashen Warlock will handle this matter fairly."
"Yeah, why didn't I think that he actually dared to make a move in the Ashen Warlock's territory? Given the relationship between the Ashen Warlock and the Dida Family, he definitely won't let him off, and that Tower of Dusk of his too." Charles seemed to have already imagined the scene of the Tower of Dusk being destroyed by the Ashen Warlock.
Charles' words not only made Joseph feel even more disdainful, but even the faces of the mages who had stood up became even uglier. The relationship that Charles was talking about was actually because the Ashen Warlock had asked the Dida Family for some specialty herbs, but the Ashen Warlock never owed anyone a favor. Hence, he gave the Dida Family a magic spell to summon Abyssal Demons.
The value of this incantation could be said to be far greater than those herbs. As long as it was used well, it would be enough to increase the strength of the Dida Clan rapidly. If a Legendary powerhouse could summon a Legendary-level Abyssal Demon as a subordinate, then what about two or three Legendary powerhouses? Dida Family, and Demon Clan, Li, Clan, Chen. on, Family, Family, Dragon, and God, Demon, Family God, Family, Family, and Dragon.
Unfortunately, Daniel, the former patriarch of the Dida Family, was too greedy when he summoned the Abyssal Demon, and actually wanted to summon the powerful Abyssal Demon Dragon. In the end, although the Abyssal Demon Dragon was summoned, it refused to obey him at all. Not only did it turn Daniel into ashes, it almost destroyed the entire Dida Family. If it weren't for the Ashen Warlock who captured the Abyssal Demon Dragon, the Mithril Alliance would probably be left with only the four major families.
After Daniel's death, the Dida Family began to fight for power again. In the end, the result of a mutual compromise was to let Charles, who was almost useless except for his magical talent, become the patriarch of the Dida Family. However, Charles's magical talent was gone now, and he could be considered to be completely useless. He would probably be ousted from the throne of the patriarch after two years.
Joseph quietly turned his gaze to the upper floor of the inn, only to see that the window had already been closed. For some reason, he felt a little relieved. He turned his head, and said, "Charles, you can still walk, right? For the sake of your safety, I think you'd better stay in the campsite before we meet the Ashen Warlock. Don't provoke the people of the Tower of Dusk again."
"Yes, Patriarch Joseph, I know." Charles lowered his head, but a trace of resentment flashed in his eyes. After all, he was still the patriarch of the Dida Family, and Joseph actually called him by his name. Did he really think that he would definitely lose his position as the patriarch after he returned!?
Joseph walked in front and led the crowd to the campsite outside the town, but he didn't stop plotting. Charles's magical talent being destroyed was actually not a bad thing. In another two years, it would be the Dida Family's turn to be the leader of the Mithril Alliance. If the Mithril Alliance were to be handed over to that fool, it would really be a disaster. After returning this time, if the Dida Family were to do something like that again, it would be better for them to unite with the other three families and get rid of the Dida Family as soon as possible.
The young President of the Tower of Dusk was indeed extraordinary. Even if he was not level-24, he should be at the peak of level-23. Besides, he had two Legendary Undead servants. Although the Mithril Alliance could deal with them, they would still have to put in a lot of effort. Fortunately, they had roped in the other two families this time …
In the small inn, when Joseph and the others left, Lin Li was already seated at the table, and continued to read the historical biography quietly. Due to the fact that he was not clear about the Ashen Warlock's character, he did not dare to take the risk of reading the Book of Eternity here. After all, the Ashen Warlock was a powerhouse on the same level as the three arbitrators. The experience in the big rift and the fight with Rodhart made him realize how terrifying a Sanctuary powerhouse was. Even if he had the seven pieces of the debris of the stars, he would probably not be able to contend with him at this moment.
When it was time for dinner, the inn became lively again. However, it was different from before. It was just that the fat inn owner welcomed some guests. Lin Li was sitting in the restaurant downstairs, drinking juice and eating barbecued meat. The two Undead servants did not need to eat anything. If Norfeller were to drink blood, he might scare the civilians in the town. Hence, they simply stood behind Lin Li, one on the left and the other on the right.
Among the new guests of the small inn, there were warriors, mages, and humans who exuded a faint Menace of the Dragon. However, all of them had one thing in common, and that was the aura of a Legendary powerhouse. However, after entering, everyone could not help but look at Lin Li in shock. After all, there were two Legendary-level servants standing behind him, which would be terrifying no matter where they were.
However, after seeing the appearance of Lin Li and the two Undead servants clearly, they immediately thought of Lin Li's identity. The young President of the Tower of Dusk was already a Legendary-mage in his early twenties, and had two loyal Legendary-level Undead servants following him. That was no longer a secret in the Breezy Plains.
Lin Li didn't have to guess to know that those people had to be the leaders of the various top forces of the Breezy Plains who had been invited by the Ashen Warlock. However, while those people were familiar with each other, Lin Li did not recognize any of them. He only knew one named Joseph, whom he had a grudge against. Hence, he continued to eat his dinner.
"Haha, Master Felic, I knew that you would definitely be invited this time," said a familiar voice.
All of a sudden, a familiar voice sounded, and Lin Li raised his head to look at the door, only to see a meatball that was even fatter than the fat shop owner walking towards him quickly. It turned out to be Hoffman, the President of the Glittergold Trade Union.
"Mr. Hoffman, why are you … Oh, I didn't expect to see you here. Please take a seat." Lin Li initially wanted to ask Hoffman why he was there, but he thought that the Glittergold Trade Union was also a top force of the Breezy Plains, and it wouldn't be strange for Hoffman, the President of the Glittergold Trade Union, to appear there.
Although Lin Li didn't care much about the hostile gazes, he was still very happy to meet an acquaintance that he had a good relationship with. Lin Li stood up and gestured for Hoffman to take his seat, and then asked Norfeller to clear away the dinner on the table. He then said to Hoffman, "Mr. Hoffman, I'm very happy to see you here."
"Haha, I've long guessed that Roland would definitely invite you this time. By the way, I've heard about you going to the Brilliance Shrine and the Darkness Shrine. I also heard that you left a pharmaceutics notebook for that dead-faced Sendros … "Hoffman began chatting with Lin Li excitedly.
The leaders of the various top forces initially wanted to go forward and greet Hoffman when they saw him enter. However, no one expected Lin Li, who was usually easy to talk to, to actually go straight to the President of the Tower of Dusk after casually saying a few perfunctory words to them. Hoffman's exaggerated behavior really shocked everyone. They all thought that the Glittergold Trade Union and the Tower of Dusk were just ordinary partners, but it seemed that things were not that simple.
Joseph of the Mithril Alliance, in particular, lamented his bad luck when he saw this scene. He initially planned to join forces with the Glittergold Trade Union to suppress the Tower of Dusk's business with their massive financial resources. However, it seemed that he had to be more careful. If the Glittergold Trade Union provided a large amount of funds to the Tower of Dusk, the difficulty of implementing his plan would probably increase exponentially.
"It's too noisy here, let's go to the room to talk," Lin Li said when he heard Hoffman asking about pharmaceutics. Hence, he got up and invited him to the room to talk. Of course, it wouldn't be too noisy, but apart from Hoffman, almost everyone present could be enemies of the Tower of Dusk. Lin Li didn't have the heart to teach his enemies.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I was too anxious." Hoffman stood up with a smile and looked at the people around him. While following Lin Li upstairs, he said in a low voice, "Master Felic, I heard that the Tower of Dusk has encountered some problems recently. If there's anything you need the Glittergold Trade Union to do, please feel free to let me know. I dare not promise you anything else, but as long as you ask for funds, I'll definitely cooperate fully. "
Watching Lin Li and Hoffman's figures gradually disappear at the end of the stairs, the people below finally recovered from their shock. Although the people present were not much weaker than the Glittergold Trade Union, they had to admit that no one could compare to the Glittergold Trade Union in terms of wealth.
"President Mogadi, Patriarch Claus, I've already asked someone to prepare a room for the meeting. I think we should have a more in-depth discussion about the Tower of Dusk." As the person in charge of the Mithril Alliance, Joseph represented the other four forces to invite President Mogadi of the Blood Moon Clan and Patriarch Claus of the Caesar Family for a meeting.
The cooperation between the three forces had already begun a long time ago. Otherwise, almost all the forces of the Breezy Plains wouldn't have suppressed the Tower of Dusk in all aspects. However, it seemed that the plan during this period of time did not achieve the expected results. Although the Tower of Dusk had suffered a certain loss, it was clearly still within the acceptable range of the Tower of Dusk.
Now, seeing how enthusiastic Hoffman was towards Lin Li, Mogadi and Claus had some doubts about the cooperation led by the Mithril Alliance. In terms of business, the difficulty of defeating the Tower of Dusk, which had the huge financial support of the Glittergold Trade Union, was probably quite hopeless.
"What else is there to talk about? According to your previous plan, we haven't gotten any benefits at all, and we've even lost a large sum of money. Now, it seems that the Glittergold Trade Union is going to support the Tower of Dusk. I can't think of anyone else in this world who is richer than the Glittergold Trade Union. I'm afraid that we won't get anything in the end. "Mogadi was obviously very dissatisfied with Joseph's previous plan.
"Haha, President Mogadi, where's the pride of wyrms in your bloodline? It's just a small force that has just been established for two or three years. Do you have no confidence?" Joseph asked in a disdainful tone.
Mogadi, the president of the Blood Moon Clan, had the blood of wyrms and humans flowing in his body. Hence, Joseph would use the pride of wyrms to agitate him. In fact, although Mogadi had the bloodline of wyrms, he did not have the ability to transform into a real wyrm. However, after awakening the bloodline of wyrms, his body would be covered with solid dragon scales, and he would have extremely strong magical and physical defense abilities. At the same time, he would have a strong physical strength that was not inferior to that of wyrms. He could even spit out dragon breath. He should be considered a half-dragon and half-human existence.
"Small force? Will a small force be invited by the Ashen Warlock? In three years, he grew from nothing to something and developed to the extent that even you want to get rid of him. I do admire that young man. By the way, I heard that the Mithril Alliance also has a talented young patriarch. Why didn't I see him today? " Mogadi did not fall for Joseph's provocation, and instead teased Joseph about the puppet patriarch of the Dida Family.
