This really made him depressed. Mark Watson was not only a young genius, but he had already reached the Archmage realm before the age of 35, and his background was so frightening. Not only did he have a 7th Rank Archmage as his teacher, but he also had an even more powerful grandfather.
But to Lin Yun, it was only a bit troublesome.
"Not just anyone can bully my grandson. Mafa Merlin, since you already know that Mark is my grandson, you should be aware that your current situation is very dangerous. Let alone a Commander like you, even if Oren Merlin of your Ancestral Land appeared to protect you, I would still kill you …" Zeuss sneered, his body emitting terrifying mana fluctuations. "Naturally, it's not unforgivable for a young man to make a mistake. I can give you a chance to immediately cripple your Mana Whirlpool and stay in the Merlin Family for the rest of your life, or you will still die."
After saying this, Zeuss stood there, calmly waiting.
In his eyes, his meaning was clear enough.
Mafa Merlin only had two paths to take. The first was to be killed by him, and the second was to cripple his Mana Whirlpool and become an ordinary person, living in regret for the rest of his life.
In fact, it wasn't that he was magnanimous. As a mage, he clearly knew how painful it was for a mage to have their Mana Whirlpool crippled. It could be said that they would rather die than live.
Regardless of which path Mafa Merlin chose, he would be able to vent his anger.
At this time, Zeuss might not have noticed that Arthus and Rhett, who were standing behind him, were sweating profusely and nervous.
That young mage named Mafa Merlin might not be too powerful, but his trump cards were extremely frightening. They had all experienced it. First, there was a level 38 Frost Dragon, and then there was a puppet comparable to an 8th Rank Archmage.
What they had experienced not long ago was simply a nightmare for them …
Especially Rhett. Half a month ago, he had been besieged by a Frost Dragon and a puppet in the Merlin Family's camp. He had almost lost his life in that camp, and a series of things had happened while he was grinding his teeth.
It was to the point that his disciple, Mark, had asked him why he hadn't taught Mafa Merlin a lesson. He had no choice but to brace himself and say that he couldn't deal with Mafa Merlin for the time being.
Was that the truth …
No, it wasn't like that. It wasn't that he couldn't deal with him for the time being, but he simply couldn't!
Originally, he wanted to warn Mark to never provoke that young mage again. However, he suddenly realized that the relationship between him and Mark had become a lot more distant. Until now, he had not found a chance to tell Mark about what happened that day.
But it was too late. Mark 'of Zeuss' grandfather was an important member of the Ancestral Land. He had doted on Mark since he was a child and simply couldn't bear to see him suffer.
Sure enough …
After learning that Mark had been injured in the Merlin Family's camp, he ran over to cause trouble for the young mage.
He naturally hated Mafa Merlin to death, but the other side's trump cards were too terrifying. A Frost Dragon and a puppet that could only be crafted by someone close to the peak of the Artisan realm.
Under such circumstances, Zeuss coming to cause trouble for the young mage was courting death. Let alone Zeuss, even if there was another 8th Rank Archmage, they might not be able to injure Mafa Merlin.
Not to mention that there was only one Zeuss.
If they fought, Rhett was certain that Zeuss would definitely be the one to suffer!
Moreover, this would bring a lot of trouble to the Watson Family. Finding clues about the scepter was extremely important to the Watson Family. Even if they only took a third of the profits from the cooperation of the three major forces, it would make the Watson Family's strength advance by leaps and bounds.
But if Zeuss thoroughly infuriated the young mage to the point that the Watson Family was pushed out of this cooperation, the losses would be too great.
But just as Rhett was thinking about this, he suddenly heard the young mage's voice.
"Haha, Sir Zeuss, I would like to ask …" Lin Yun indifferently looked at Zeuss with a mocking expression, "Are you awake?"
'It's over …'
'I'm really done for this time …'
Hearing the young mage's voice, Rhett's heart thumped and cold sweat trickled down his forehead, but he didn't bother to wipe it.
Nothing could be done about it, the young mage's words would undoubtedly provoke Zeuss' anger.
'Then …'
A battle was unavoidable.
After making a move, Zeuss' outcome was already set in stone, he would be thoroughly defeated.
'What should I do … What should I do …'
Rhett was anxious to death. At this time, he suddenly felt an extremely terrifying mana fluctuation spreading in all directions. He suddenly felt stifled and looked at Zeuss with a frightened expression.
'Please don't make a move!'
"Sir Zeuss … Sir Zeuss, don't be in such a hurry to make a move. There must be a misunderstanding here, let's talk things over …" Helplessly, Rhett could only wipe the cold sweat off his forehead while bracing himself to persuade Zeuss.
"Rhett, what did you say …" Zeuss angrily looked at Rhett with an extremely cold expression, "Haha, I really didn't expect it, Rhett. Regardless of what is said, you are still Mark's teacher. Not only did you not help Mark when he was being bullied, you even dared to speak up for Mafa Merlin. You are truly capable."
At this time, Zeuss was also filled with disgust towards Rhett. At that time, he had been busy with the affairs of the Ancestral Land and couldn't spare any time to guide Mark, so he could only hand over his beloved grandson to Rhett.
At that time, Rhett was only a member of the Ancestral Land and hadn't joined the Council. Seeing that Rhett had spared no effort in teaching his grandson, Zeuss specially mentioned Rhett's name in a meeting to smoothly make Rhett a Representative with his influence in the Council.
But now, Rhett had completely disappointed him.
"Err … Sir Zeuss, please … Please listen to my explanation …" Sensing Zeuss' cold gaze, Rhett couldn't help feeling a chill and subconsciously lowered his head.
'I'm really wronged …'
'How is this helping Mafa Merlin? I'm clearly stopping you from courting death …'
At this time, Rhett was truly helpless. He clearly knew that only by telling Zeuss about the Frost Dragon and the puppet could they avoid this battle.
Otherwise, with Zeuss' fiery temper, even if the young mage hadn't seriously injured Mark, his provocative words would have been enough to make Zeuss explode.
"Alright, Rhett, I don't want to hear any of your explanations …" Zeuss impatiently waved his hand and coldly glanced at Rhett, not concealing his disgust. He was already thoroughly disappointed in Rhett.
But after saying that, Zeuss didn't rush to make a move. Instead, that frantically surging mana fluctuations gradually dissipated.
In fact, he had already calmed down.
It wasn't that Rhett's persuasion was effective, but there was another reason. This was the true reason he had left the Ancestral Land and come to the Horn of Fertility.
As an important member of the Watson Family's Ancestral Land Council, Zeuss could naturally come in contact with the core secrets of the Family. Moreover, he knew that the ancestors of the Watson Family could be traced back to the end of the Nesser Dynasty. After the establishment of the 3rd Dynasty, the Watson Family's magic staff rapidly rose until the present day.
Such an ancient Family with such a long history simply couldn't be compared to ordinary forces. There was a large amount of precious information stored in the Ancestral Land, and among these materials, there was the most shocking one. It was precious information regarding Ancient Gods. The Watson Family had been studying this information since the start of the 3rd Dynasty in an attempt to find clues regarding Ancient Gods.
Not long ago, that old man who had lived for close to a millennium suddenly found Zeuss and took out that secret information. When he saw that information, Zeuss was truly stunned, he was indescribably shocked. It was actually related to Ancient Gods.
Then, he learned that through the efforts of the Watson Family, they finally found some clues and deciphered a lot of important information. One of them mentioned a name, Constance. All kinds of signs pointed to the fact that this Ancient God called Constance had been seriously injured and fell in the Raging Flame Plane, his body falling into the Wailing River.
In fact, the Watson Family had already deciphered these clues several hundred years ago and attached great importance to the fight over the Raging Flame Plane. It could be said that they disregarded everything and attacked four forts in a row, continuously nibbling away at the Wailing River. But over a hundred years ago, the Ancestral Land dispatched a group of powerhouses to secretly explore the Wailing River, but they didn't find the corpse of an Ancient God. This made the higher-ups of the Ancestral Land's Council very disappointed and they almost gave up on looking for the Ancient God's corpse.
However, a few days ago, news suddenly came from the Horn of Fertility that a space crack had appeared at the end of the Wailing River. Immediately, several councilors in the Ancestral Land who knew about it thought of the corpse of the Ancient God and Devil. Perhaps the clues deciphered from that information were all true …
Thus, after some discussion, the Ancestral Land's Council decided to dispatch Zeuss.
As he thought of this, Zeuss frowned and looked at the black-robed mage not far from him. He wasn't unfamiliar with that person, he knew that he was from the Black Tower's Holy Land. His name was Falton, and he had already reached the 8th Rank of the Archmage realm a long time ago. That Falton might be his biggest competitor this time.
