Lars raised his head and walked through the Flame Demon Fort, disbelief flickering in his eyes.
'Damn, what happened here? How come the Merlin Family looks like they took the wrong potion? Did they all drink a Berserk Potion?
'Eh, isn't that Gelu Merlin? That guy was still a 9th Rank High Mage last month, how could he have advanced to the 1st Rank of the Archmage realm?
That guy has been stuck at the 9th Rank of the High Mage realm for over twenty years, right? How did he advance?
'And those few, they weren't that powerful last month, how could they have advanced now?'
A doubtful light flashed in Lars' eyes, but he still felt some disdain in his heart. 'Look, most of the powerhouses in the Flame Demon Fort are Great Mages, there aren't many High Mages, and all the Archmages seem to have fallen. So what if that Gelu Merlin advanced to the 1st Rank of the Archmage realm?
'It's not that their overall strength is weak. Apart from H.e. Mafa Merlin and a few of his subordinates, the Merlin Family can't even withstand a single blow. Their commander, Thorne Merlin, is only a 5th Rank Sword Saint. I really don't know what the Merlin Family is thinking. They are so weak, yet they still want to share the benefits of the Raging Flame Plane.
'Truly a group of trash. But apart from H.e. Mafa Merlin, that 6th Rank Archmage from the Ancestral Land was actually crippled by H.e. Mafa Merlin in one move, and Sir Zeuss actually didn't stand up for him.
'After returning, Sir Zeuss cursed Sir Green, and the entire fort could hear him. It was said that the saliva he spat was enough for Sir Green to wash his face.
'That huge warship was driven back by H.e. Mafa Merlin, it was truly frightening. I heard that that warship annihilated all the Raging Flame Beastmen of the Fireblade Tribe in a few minutes.
"Sir Green is really stupid. Sir Zeuss specifically warned me before leaving that the Fireblade Tribe's Tribal Chief, Hoppet, was personally killed by H.e. Mafa Merlin, an 8th Rank Archmage!
But it was said that H.e. Mafa Merlin had returned to the Merlin Family later on, and his relationship with the Merlin Family wasn't very good. After coming to the Raging Flame Plane, the people there didn't seem to accept H.e. Mafa Merlin.
What a bunch of idiots …
Lars followed the guide in front and suddenly saw a Beastman sprawled on the roof of a large tent, snoring loudly and emitting a dangerous aura.
'This is Sir Mafa Merlin's retainer, Sir Xiuban? 'Truly frightening, it is said that he followed H.e. Mafa Merlin for a bit over a year and went from a stupid Beastman to a powerful 4th Rank Sword Saint. Look at his aura, he is even more powerful than a 5th Rank Sword Saint.
'Truly frightening, it is said that there is also a terrifying Frost Dragon following H.e. Mafa Merlin.
'Unfortunately, I'm a member of the Watson Family, Sir Mafa definitely doesn't like me. Otherwise, I would definitely be thick-skinned enough to follow Sir Mafa …'
"We're here, wait here for a bit. Sir Mafa is currently conducting an important alchemy experiment and will only come out after a while."
A voice interrupted Lars' reverie. Lars snapped back to reality and nodded arrogantly.
Disdain flashed in Lars' eyes as he looked at the back of that member of the Merlin Family. Apart from Sir Mafa Merlin, the Merlin Family didn't have anyone worth looking at.
'Hmpf, in my opinion, the Merlin Family is filled with cowardly fools. They only shamelessly pulled Sir Mafa Merlin back to the Family after seeing how powerful Mafa Merlin is.'
Lars sat in the spacious reception room, not in a hurry. It was said that Sir Mafa Merlin was a formidable Master Alchemist … No, it was said that he had already advanced to the Artisan realm. Waiting for an Artisan wasn't shameful. Many of them wanted to wait, but they didn't have the opportunity.
After ten minutes, Lin Yun looked at the continuously changing solution in the beaker and nodded with satisfaction.
"Hmm, I'll wait for another half an hour before proceeding to the next step. Let's go see the Watson Family first."
Lin Yun looked at his messy hair and dirty clothes, but he didn't care. Time was pressing, so he didn't have time to waste. He casually tidied himself up before walking towards the reception room.
He pushed open the door and immediately heard a berating voice.
"Hmpf, who let you in!"
Lars coldly looked at that young man who seemed to be in a hurry. His clothes were so dirty, and his hair wasn't even tidied up. It looked like he had definitely entered the wrong room. 'Such a lack of upbringing, he didn't even knock before entering.'
'The members of the Merlin Family are becoming more and more unsightly. No wonder they are a bunch of trash. In this Flame Demon Fort, only H.e. Mafa Merlin, who returned later, can be considered a powerhouse.'
A stunned expression flashed on Lin Yun 'face. He thought that he had entered the wrong room, but when he looked, it was indeed the reception room.
Lars sneered as he looked at Lin Yun.
"Truly lacking in upbringing, you didn't even know to knock before entering. I am a messenger of the Watson Family, a guest of H.e. Mafa Merlin. I have important matters to discuss with H.e. Mafa Merlin, yet you rashly walked in. Is the Merlin Family so unruly?"
Lars looked at Lin Yun 'stunned expression and suddenly showed a look of disdain.' Truly an idiot, he actually became stupid. Doesn't he know to apologize and leave? 'Forget it, for the sake of H.e. Mafa Merlin, I won't bother with these idiots.'
"What are you looking at? Why haven't you left yet? I'm waiting for H.e. Mafa Merlin, what are you still standing here for? Don't tell me you don't know to apologize and politely close the door … "
Lars was furious, suddenly thinking of teaching a lesson to the idiots of the Merlin Family and chattering away at Lin Yun.
If it wasn't for the fact that this was the Flame Demon Fort and that H.e. Mafa Merlin didn't seem to have a good temper, he would have definitely made this idiot suffer a bit.
A trace of helplessness and amazement could be seen on Lin Yun's face. He looked at his own clothes and immediately knew that this guy had misunderstood.
"If there isn't another Mafa Merlin here, then the one you are looking for is me …"
"… Look, besides H.e. Mafa Merlin, who else is there in your Merlin Family … Mafa Merlin … What, you are Mafa Merlin …"
As he spoke, Lars suddenly reacted to what Lin Yun had just said.
His face turned deathly pale and he instantly jumped up from his chair, shivering as he mumbled.
"You … You are H.e. Mafa Merlin … This … That …"
Lars was terrified, his legs kept shivering and cold sweat kept dripping down, as if a Heaven Rank behemoth was standing in front of him.
He remembered that Sir Zeuss had specially looked for him to have a talk, afraid that he would cause a disaster.
'Lars, after you go, don't offend H.e. Mafa Merlin. To tell you the truth, the Tribal Chief of the Fireblade Tribe, Hoppet, was killed by H.e. Mafa Merlin, and he killed him very easily.
'H.e. Mafa Merlin isn't like those weak guys of the Merlin Family. If you want to die, don't drag me down. Lord Merlin has a very good friendship with our Watson Family, and the members of the Watson Family won't destroy that friendship. I've made it clear enough, do you understand?'
Lars was sullen, on the verge of tears. He shivered and couldn't say a word. 'Sir Zeuss clearly said that offending Sir Mafa Merlin would result in an ugly death and that the Watson Family wouldn't stick up for him.'
"H.e. Mafa Merlin, this … That … I really didn't know it was you, please … Please don't take it to heart …" Lars was on the verge of crying.
His face was deathly pale, and he was holding the table with one hand, his legs already soft.
"What did Sir Zeuss send you here for?"
Lin Yun casually asked.
Lars hurriedly took out a letter from his chest pocket and put it on the table with trembling hands.
"Sir Zeuss sent me to deliver a letter … This, H.e. Mafa Merlin, I really didn't know it was you, please be magnanimous, that …"
Lin Yun waved his hand, feeling disinclined to bicker with this guy who was about to piss his pants.
Lars saw Lin Yun 'action and his intelligence suddenly broke through the limits. He hurriedly walked over, but his legs were already soft and he fell to the ground, but he didn't dare to stop. He crawled up and thanked Lin Yun profusely, almost crying as he rushed out of the reception room.
After leaving the reception room, Lars was deathly pale and didn't care about his image. He crazily rushed out of the Flame Demon Fort as if he had been chased by a Heaven Rank Vicious Beast.
Lin Yun didn't pay attention to Lars and waved his hand at the letter on the table. The envelope automatically opened and a very polite letter floated in front of him.
The first part was a bunch of polite words, followed by the first part. The time was almost up and everyone had already started gathering at the Storm Fort. Lin Yun told Lin Yun to take the elites of the Merlin Family and rush to the Storm Fort when the time was up.
With a wave of his hand, the letter turned to ashes and Lin Yun rushed to the alchemy laboratory once again. The important experiment was still going on, he didn't have time to waste.
Lin Yun entered the alchemy laboratory and forgot about everything else. But an uninvited guest arrived at the Flame Demon Fort.
A middle-aged man wearing a black robe with a proud expression walked into the Flame Demon Fort with large strides, not even looking at the Flame Demon Fort's guards.
Just as the Merlin Family's mages were about to step forward and ask, that middle-aged man burst with powerful mana fluctuations. The mana fluctuations were like a tide that turned into gales that sent everyone within several dozen meters flying.
9th Rank Archmage!
In an instant, everyone was greatly alarmed, and the leader of the guards also understood who it was.
In the entire Raging Flame Plane, the number of 9th Rank Archmages could be counted on one hand. He was wearing a black robe and was so arrogant, as if looking at others would make them feel dirty. Only that person from the Black Tower would be able to do so.
