These were all investigated by Wollings, so it wasn't a secret. The most important part was that during the auction of the Star Gem, that young mage had a conflict with Hanson Charlotte. After the auction, Hanson Charlotte and the few powerhouses he brought disappeared without a trace.
Even as a 5th Rank Archmage, Ofrin was scared witless by those mana fluctuations. He was no doubt no match for Wollings.
Wollings, who was originally overbearing, instantly felt a burst of fear. It was as if he had met his natural enemy. He was terrified and uneasy. After letting out a blood-curdling scream, Wollings slumped in his chair, his whole body emitting a black mist that was erased by the mana of the Truth Chapter.
Lin Yun nodded and didn't say anything else before leaving the study.
Wollings suddenly let out a sharp sneer. That voice sounded like it came from hell, and an extremely cold aura spread to every corner of the study. Berserk mana fluctuations rose up.
The first time he came to the Ancestral Land, his goal was to fuse his Magic Array. But at that time, he discovered that the architecture of the temple where he was undergoing the Bloodline Ceremony reminded him of the Nesser Dynasty, the era of Dragons and Elves.
After staying in his residence for a day, Lin Yun left his room and passed through the Merlin Family Manor. He walked along the shore of the Fallen Star Lake and quickly reached the bottom of that cliff.
Mafa Merlin was a child of the Merlin Family who had been stranded outside and had returned to the Merlin Family a few months ago. Moreover, this young mage called Mafa Merlin also had the Gilded Rose in Thousand Sails City and monopolized the entire eastern alchemy market. He even spent over thirty million golds at the auction a few months ago.
Wollings had a grave expression and didn't say anything. He used his actions to answer Ofrin's question. Berserk mana fluctuations overflowed as the pressure of a 5th Rank Archmage was released. His target was Lin Yun, who was sitting on the side.
He had already heard from his cousin William that this area of the Ancestral Land's Guardian Tower was very strange. Some young geniuses who came here for the Bloodline Ceremony encountered powerful magic beasts. There was even a very unlucky guy who encountered the Soul of an ancestor and was scared away. He didn't even have time to carry out the Bloodline Ceremony. After returning to the Merlin Family Manor, he became even crazier.
Lin Yun walked for close to an hour before reaching the bottom of the canyon. Yesterday, when he left Patriarch Ofran's study, Ofran reminded him that Sir Ryan from the Ancestral Land had told him to go to the Raging Flame Plane a few months ago. It was said that someone wanted to see him.
Ofran sneered. 'With Mafa Merlin's strength, he already has the qualifications to be treated as an equal. So what if I say something?' He even has the qualifications to make a move against you! '
The canyon where the Ancestral Land was located was shrouded in dense fog all year round. It was hazy and one simply couldn't see what was inside. This was the most mysterious place of the Merlin Family.
"You, you …"
Speaking of which, the Charlotte Family still hadn't looked for trouble with him …
"F * ck off …" Lin Yun indifferently glanced at Wollings and inwardly shook his head. Sure enough, it was just as he thought. The Charlotte Family had the support of the Thousand Souls Sacrifice, which was why they were so arrogant. Just now, he had used the Truth Chapter to completely erase the demonic power within Wollings' body.
Ofrin was thoroughly stunned. He looked at the young man in a daze. The shock in his heart couldn't be described in a few words. His throat moved as if he wanted to ask something, but he swallowed his words and ultimately reminded him, "Mafa Merlin, it would be best for you to go to the Ancestral Land before heading to the Raging Flame Plane …"
At that time, he knew that the Merlin Family wasn't as simple as it seemed on the surface. After the trip to the Tulan Mountain Range, his conjectures were confirmed. The Merlin Family truly wasn't simple. The scene reflected by the damaged Heaven Puppet in the workshop on the 10th floor made him discover that an ancestor of the Merlin Family had actually followed Charles the Emperor and participated in the battle to destroy the Throne of Life.
This was simply too unfathomable ….
"Ah! What is this … "
"Okay …"
Right at this moment, an indifferent voice sounded.
But, Wollings had only been a 3rd Rank Archmage a month ago …
Lin Yun guessed that the ancestor who wanted to see him had a higher seniority than Sir Ryan, or else Sir Ryan wouldn't have personally come to pass on the message.
But he hadn't expected that the young mage would take out a mysterious Magic Tool that would make his power fall back to the 5th Rank of the Archmage realm.
It was rumored that an ancestor of the Merlin Family came from this place and followed the late king of Andalusia to establish his kingdom. After his success, he once again entered the Ancestral Land and never came out. From that time on, the entire canyon was filled with thick smoke.
Naturally, Ofran wouldn't say this out loud. He knew how powerful the young mage was. Three months ago, he was already on par with the 5th Rank Sword Saint, Thorne Merlin. But now that they met again, the young mage gave him an extremely dangerous feeling. Thus, he knew that the young mage seemed to be even stronger than before.
As he thought of this, Lin Yun bewilderedly looked at the depths of the canyon. That place was shrouded in a layer of dense fog, making it very difficult to see clearly. He suspected that the strange undulation could have been emitted by a magical beast or the soul of an ancestor …
'How could his strength increase so quickly?'
Lin Yun also felt that this mysterious Ancestral Land should be hiding a huge secret.
But …
He didn't dare to get angry when the young mage told him to get lost. He panted heavily as he propped himself up from his chair with difficulty and ran out of the study without looking back.
"Wollings, you dare to attack our Merlin Family!" Ofran was extremely angry as he stood up.
"Ofran, the current Charlotte Family is no longer the Charlotte Family of the past. I advise you to obediently hand over that territory. Do you really have to shed all pretenses of cordiality and make a big fuss?" Wollings had a mocking expression as he looked at Ofran's expression and couldn't help feeling proud of himself.
After getting the news, Wollings suspected that Hanson's death was related to this young mage.
Wollings truly wanted to die. With the support of the Thousand Souls Sacrifice, his strength had advanced by leaps and bounds and he had reached the 5th Rank of the Archmage realm. He was even a bit stronger than Ofran. It was because of this that he had the confidence to force the Merlin Family to hand over that territory.
The last time he entered the Ancestral Land was when he had just stepped into the Merlin Family Manor. After a lot of twists and turns, he managed to obtain Patriarch Ofran's consent. Moreover, that trip to the Ancestral Land had given him quite a bit of inspiration. There were actually a dozen seven-story magic towers in the depths of the canyon. This meant that there were over a dozen Archmages in the Ancestral Land, and there was even a nine-story magic tower, which represented a Heaven Rank powerhouse.
"It's been a long time since a youth dared to talk to me like that. Haha, I really want to see what gives him the confidence to be so unbridled …"
…
Wollings' expression became very bad as soon as Lin Yun said those words. He looked at the source of the voice with a sharp gaze. It was a young mage that Wollings recognized.
"Sir Wollings, could it be that you are deaf? Patriarch Ofran already told you to leave …"
After carefully sensing it, Lin Yun felt that those fluctuations were somewhat strange. The dense fog in the canyon flickered with light as if there were countless mysterious runes moving up and down. And that fluctuation seemed to have fused with those mysterious runes. This should be the reason why it was so hard to detect.
"That, Mafa …"
As he thought of this, Wollings' expression turned cold and he looked at Lin Yun with killing intent. "Ofran, look at the youngsters of your Merlin Family, what have they become? As an elder, you should properly discipline them. How could a junior like him have the qualifications to interrupt our conversation?"
After reaching the bottom of the canyon, although it was still covered in dense fog, they could faintly see the silhouettes of a dozen towers. The manor was clean and the surrounding scenery was very beautiful. It was hard to see the end of it. At this time, Lin Yun 'expression suddenly changed as he sensed a hidden fluctuation. If he hadn't been rousing his Magic Array, he might not have been able to discover that fluctuation.
At this time, an ancient book emitting an aura of death appeared in Lin Yun's hand. He gently flipped a page and saw that it was the Truth Chapter, known as the book that could see through all things. It could eliminate all evils and make all falsehoods unable to hide. It was the natural bane of evil existences. Resplendent rays of light burst out of the book and numerous characters appeared one after another. They rapidly gathered in the air and turned into a huge rune that contained terrifying power.
As for the Star Well that Cousin William obtained in the study on the 9th floor, it pointed towards the gravedigger of the Silver Era, Noscent's greatest alchemist, the Dark Sage. The current Merlin Family was most likely a descendant of the Dark Sage. Of course, this might just be a coincidence.
But that tower didn't emit any mana fluctuations, as if it had already lost its master.
As for Wollings, he looked as if he had aged a dozen years, he looked very weak.
Ofran's expression suddenly changed when he sensed those mana fluctuations. He looked at Wollings in disbelief, his throat twitching, but no sound came out. The current Wollings was already a 5th Rank Archmage, and an extremely powerful one at that.
"Haha, Patriarch Wollings, you are meddling too much …"
But that young mage's strength hadn't reached the point where he could contend against Hanson Charlotte. He knew Charlotte's secrets and clearly knew that even some Archmages or Sword Saints might not be able to kill Hanson Charlotte. 'Could it be that a powerhouse of the Merlin Family made a move?
'No wonder Wollings is so arrogant …'
