"But the Elder Council!" Hearing these words, Aube Merlin completely lost his composure. If he could, Aube Merlin would really want to crack open the other side's head and see what kind of thoughts he had!
'Doesn't he know that refusing me would only push the situation to an irremediable stage?'
At that time, the Elder Council would be in trouble, and he would only have two choices. One was to obediently hand over the Gilded Rose and become a puppet of the Elder Council, and the other was to immediately rebel against the Merlin Family and become enemies with this first-rate force of Okland.
Aube Merlin simply couldn't understand.
'How could the seemingly intelligent Mafa Merlin make such an unwise choice?'
"Do you know what the consequences of this will be?" Aube Merlin's voice was somewhat hoarse, and his eyes were bloodshot as he looked at Lin Yun. Aube Merlin simply couldn't accept this outcome.
'How could it be like this …
'This is impossible …'
'Didn't I already consider all possibilities before coming here? Apart from cooperating with me, Mafa Merlin really has no way out. Why would he make such a choice?'
"I know …" Lin Yun smiled, but just as he was about to say something, he heard footsteps coming from outside the door.
Then, he saw William Merlin and Ross Merlin walking in with swollen faces.
The two of them were pale and panting, looking as if they had just fought a few hundred magic beasts. At this time, the two of them were supporting each other as they entered the room, but they suddenly saw Aube Merlin sitting there and froze.
"Aube Merlin, why did you come?" The two of them were two of the three geniuses of the Merlin Family, and the competition between them had already reached a white-hot level. Their relationship was even worse than William Merlin's. Ross Merlin's tone wasn't polite at all.
"Hehe, Ross, long time no see." On the other hand, Ross Merlin was much calmer. Although he couldn't help but be stunned when he saw the two of them, his expression quickly returned to normal and he even revealed a polite smile.
"You're not welcome here."
"We haven't seen each other for so long, but your temper is still the same. Haha, I only came today to discuss a deal with Cousin Mafa. It just so happens that you are also here, how about you help me persuade Cousin Mafa …"
"Cousin Ross, help me send Cousin Aube off …" Since Ross Merlin and William Merlin were here, Lin Yun was naturally not interested in talking to Aube Merlin. He only showed an apologetic smile, and once again focused on optimizing the Elemental Tide.
"Did you hear that, Aube Merlin?" Ross Merlin sneered and took a step forward, separating Aube Merlin from Lin Yun.
"Hey, Cousin Mafa, listen to me …" Aube Merlin was somewhat anxious.
But Lin Yun had already lowered his head and started his previous work. As for what Aube Merlin said, Lin Yun simply didn't have time to care.
"What, Aube Merlin, you still haven't left? Do you want me to personally send you off?" Ross Merlin's expression turned cold, and mana fluctuations mixed with the aura of the Endless Spring spread out unrestrainedly. It looked like he would immediately attack if there was any disagreement.
In fact, if Aube Merlin kept pestering him, Ross Merlin might really attack him.
To Ross Merlin, every minute Aube Merlin wasted here would mean a minute of delay in obtaining the complete Elemental Tide. If he could use a fight to make Aube Merlin leave, Ross Merlin definitely wouldn't be polite.
"Okay, okay, I'll leave …" Aube Merlin wasn't a fool. Seeing Ross Merlin's attitude, he knew that this deal couldn't be discussed today. He could only raise his hands to show that he didn't plan on attacking Ross Merlin. He retreated towards the door while still trying to persuade him. "But, Cousin Mafa, I advise you not to think that Ross Merlin can help you. To tell you the truth, Ross Merlin doesn't have an ally in the Elder Council. If you don't want to be eaten by those old guys, your only choice is to accept my investment and become a shareholder of the Gilded Rose. Only I can help you …"
After saying this, Aube Merlin finally left the room.
"Aube Merlin wants to invest in the Gilded Rose?" William Merlin felt strange. How come he hadn't heard of Aube Merlin's wealth before? He actually dared to think about investing in the Gilded Rose …
"3,000,000 golds for 40% of the Gilded Rose's shares …"
"He's crazy …" William Merlin almost laughed. Let alone 3,000,000 golds, even 30,000,000 golds wouldn't be enough for the current Gilded Rose. 40% of the Gilded Rose's shares was simply daydreaming …
"Haha …" Lin Yun chuckled, but didn't say anything else.
The thirteen formulas had already been completed. All that was left was to optimize the Meditation Law Set. This wasn't a complicated task for Lin Yun. It took less than two hours for Lin Yun to put down his quill and hand over a thick stack of paper to Ross Merlin.
"This is the complete Elemental Tide, study it carefully."
"Yes, yes, yes …" Ross Merlin's hands and feet were shaking as he held the stack of paper.
He looked at Lin Yun with a complicated expression.
Ross Merlin obtained the first section of the Elemental Tide when he was in his teens. Later, he relied on this incomplete Meditation Law Set to advance by leaps and bounds. Not only did he become a 5th Rank High Mage before the age of thirty, but he also obtained the strongest Magic Conducting Rune of the Merlin Family, the Endless Spring. From that time, Ross Merlin knew that the Elemental Tide was the path he had to walk on.
But later, the incomplete Elemental Tide started to reveal its flaws. After becoming a 5th Rank High Mage, Ross Merlin couldn't advance an inch. In order to continue his broken magic path, Ross Merlin thought of every possible method. He went to one plane after another, adventuring after another. Ross Merlin spent a lot of effort, but in the end, he only found a vague clue. And when Ross Merlin learned that this clue was in the hands of his greatest opponent, Stan Watson, Ross Merlin truly despaired.
There was a time when Ross Merlin felt that his life would stop at the 5th Rank of the High Mage realm.
But he hadn't expected that a malicious blackmail would let him get to know this younger cousin from Thousand Sails City. Then, his entire life would change.
Now, as he held the complete Elemental Tide, Ross Merlin faintly felt heat spreading in his eyes.
"Cousin Merlin …" After handing over the complete Elemental Tide, Lin Yun no longer paid attention to Ross Merlin and instead called William Merlin over. "Cousin Merlin, your research into the Crimson Heart has been very thorough. It could be said that you have already reached the level of the High Mages of the Crimson Tower. If you had started researching the Crimson Heart earlier, your Magic Conducting Rune would have been the famous Raging Flames Forge. Unfortunately, you started researching the Crimson Heart too late …"
"Ah?" William Merlin had originally been very envious of Ross Merlin obtaining the Elemental Tide he had yearned for even in his dreams. But when his younger cousin said those words, William Merlin felt a bit disappointed.
"Thus …" After thinking for a bit, Lin Yun fished out a stack of paper from his pocket. "I prepared the Lava Heart for you. This is the strongest Meditation Law Set of the Crimson Tower. It has 13 formulas, and the Burning Wrath of Heaven is different from the Crimson Heart. This Meditation Law Set is very tyrannical. Once studied to a certain degree, it will thoroughly destroy your original Magic Conducting Rune and then rebuild a Fire Magic Conducting Rune even more powerful than the Raging Flames Forge on top of the ruins …"
"So powerful?" William Merlin's expression suddenly changed. The disappointment on his face instantly disappeared and was replaced by an indescribable pleasant surprise.
"The prerequisite is that you can endure the pain brought about by this Meditation Law Set …"
"Of course, no problem!" William Merlin was very excited, so how could he ponder over the meaning of Lin Yun's words?
"Haha …" Lin Yun shook his head. He didn't tell William Merlin that the pain he was talking about was true pain, a pain that made one wish they were dead.
After the two of them obtained a Meditation Law Set, they impatiently wanted to test their power, so they only sat for a bit before returning to their rooms.
After the two left, Lin Yun didn't stay idle.
Lin Yun took out the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel.
At this time, the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel had already been completed, and the unique mana fluctuations of a True Spirit Magic Tool instantly filled the room. The disk made of Latour Gold Essence was about the size of a palm, and the Star Gem and Elemental Amber each occupied a semicircle. The surroundings were covered in runes and arrays. With a single thought from Lin Yun, these runes and arrays immediately revolved, and a huge amount of power started gathering on the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel.
'Worthy of Latour Gold Essence …' Even Lin Yun couldn't help inwardly exclaiming in admiration. The carrying capacity of a Ten Thousand Spell Wheel made of Latour Gold Essence could only be described as shocking. After all, the runes he had carved on the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel had all come from the Book of Death. If it had been an ordinary magic material, it wouldn't have been able to bear this kind of frightening power and would have already been damaged, not to mention the Star Gem and Elemental Amber.
Elemental Amber was one thing …
But the Star Gem contained a wisp of World Power. How could ordinary magic materials bear the power of World Power?
'Now, let's see if Anderfa keeps his word …' After testing the power of the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel, Lin Yun started rousing his Magic Array, awakening the sleeping Anderfa within the 10th Magic Array.
