Michael held the ring with a troubled look on his face. Unlike the other Dark Elves, she only saw the surface. She was willing to follow this Magician's idea and deliver it to His Majesty. After all, His Majesty didn't care what method was used, as long as he could see the person.
However, as she held the ring in her hand, the powerful magic made Mabel understand that this ring was far more than just the ability His Majesty had mentioned. It was also mentioned that it was a pair with the ring on his hand. Mabel didn't mind any relationship, but that didn't mean she could accept any form of master-slave relationship. Fasnath had no mercy for betrayers.
Lin guessed her concerns and said, "You don't have to wear the ring on your finger. Just put it in a small cloth bag and bring it back to His Majesty. " After some thought, Lin added, "Apart from being able to use my Blink spell to locate my target, this ring also has some auxiliary and life-saving magic. You can treat it as an ordinary magic item. There won't be any forced actions or requirements after you wear it. "
Mabel held the ring, but it felt as heavy as a thousand pounds. She asked dryly, "Why?" Of course, the exchange of rings represented marriage, but that was only between nobles. Commoners, adventurers, and other Homo sapiens didn't have any special meaning when giving rings. However, giving powerful magic items couldn't be said that there was no meaning behind it.
Lin explained, "This time, I was able to get through this crisis. Your sacrifice to come into contact with me with Fasnath's token was also crucial. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that you saved my life. So, I can promise you three times that I can help you when you encounter danger that you can't deal with. Of course, it's under the condition that you wear the ring. After all, that's the only way I can appear near you. After three times, it depends on the situation. I don't want you to abuse such a promise and become a firefighter or a hired thug. "
Since it was to repay the favor of saving his life, there was no reason not to accept it. Not to mention, Mabel was well aware of the man's strength. With just that elusive magic, even if she couldn't win, she could at least escape. After thinking it through, Mabel didn't argue. She nodded and said, "Thank you," and put the ring on her right index finger.
Lin summoned the apprentice behind him and continued, "Let Kaya teach you how to use it. If there's nothing else, you can leave. I'm tired. You're also injured. If you want to stay and recuperate, I'll get someone to prepare a guest room for you. "
Myrtle rose and saluted. "There is no need to trouble you, Lord Tripwood. The sooner I return, the sooner His Majesty Fasnus will be able to meet you. He has admired you for a long time. "
In the face of such flattery, Lin only nodded indifferently. Ever since the first time he helped the World Tree Wadwal open up a new path and successfully advanced, all the World Trees were interested in him. It seemed like even the one underground was no exception. But after seeing Vadwo and Lahti, he found that there was not much difference between the observable phenomena of the two, and his desire to explore the twenty-one World Trees faded.
However, since he had received help, there was no reason for him to refuse. He wouldn't waste too much time either, so there was no harm in taking a look. After making an agreement with Malcolm, Lin left without saying a word. Since he had just woken up, there were still many things that he needed to clarify.
As he left slowly, when he passed by the Dark Elves scattered all over the guest room, they all felt a chill run down their spines and hurriedly retreated.
The reason why the Dark Elves were afraid of this Mage was not only because of his strange strength, nor was it because of his ruthlessness and decisiveness. It was more because of his cold eyes, as if he was looking at something unimportant. Or rather, as if he was looking at a dead person.
Anyone who possessed a single trait would not necessarily be feared by others. On the contrary, they might be targeted because of their arrogant behavior. But when three traits were gathered in one person, then one would have to seriously consider whether it was right to provoke such a person.
The Dark Elves might have little contact with the outside world, but it didn't mean that they didn't understand the ways of the world. Not to mention, there was still a mess of blood on the ground that had not been cleaned up, warning anyone who didn't have eyes.
After leaving, Lin pondered. The Dream Incarnation that seemed to have assimilated with the Divine Spark had completely disappeared after that sword strike. The authority that was originally condensed by the Divine Spark gushed out, and half of it poured into the Dream Magic Tower, filling up the Dream Magic Tower that was originally full of holes and scars.
The obvious advantage was that the original body of the Dream Magic Tower had some inevitable gaps between the bricks and stones, but now they were completely filled up. The direct manifestation of this was that the magic array runes engraved on the tower could be made about three times smaller than before. This meant that the magic capacity that the Magic Tower could support with the same surface area had increased by three times, and he had more room to perform.
The second was that the original Dream Magic Tower's main constituent elements were the energy tides of the multi-dimensional gap, and not the eight authorities of the Mystical Land. When these energies were used to operate the inherent magic engraved on the tower, there wouldn't be too much of a problem, such as Flash, Starry Night, and so on, or their extension magic.
But when one wanted to operate the original magic that used the eight authorities of the Mystical Land, they had to use the authority that someone had originally cultivated. Someone who could use Flash almost limitlessly was no better than a little mage who had just crossed the threshold when it came to performing traditional magic in the Mystical Land, and could only cast a few fireballs.
This was also the reason why most mages in the Mystical Land didn't like to use offensive magic, because it consumed too much authority and didn't have high combat effectiveness. On the contrary, if they used some auxiliary magic, not only would their combat effectiveness increase, but the magic and authority that they retained could also be used to deal with unexpected situations and increase their chances of survival.
But now, after being blessed by the eight Lords of Authority, he was lucky to survive. The Dream Magic Tower was no longer composed of pure inter-dimensional foreign energy, and the total amount of the eight authorities was almost equal to the foreign energy. It was a kind of balance, and there was more than enough to use traditional magic in the Mystical Land.
At this moment, Lin couldn't help but smile bitterly. Previously, when he was in danger, he was crazily complaining that in martial arts novels, it was easy to transfer sixty years' worth of power, and it shouldn't be possible in reality. What was going on with him now? Should he change his expression to one that said, "How nice."
However, the benefits he received were not all the power that the eight Lords of Authority had infused into him. A very small part of it spilled to the outside world, and the remaining twenty to thirty percent was absorbed by his magic equipment, or more accurately, the Black Tortoise Totem on his back.
Speaking of which, the cause of this incident was an unforeseen event caused by the Four Spirit Totems of Earth coming together with him. Just like in many novels and movies, a single fragrance or food would not affect the human body, but when mixed with another in the environment, it would become highly toxic.
When the Black Tortoise Totem of the Four Spirit Totems was woven on the jacquard machine, there was no obvious abnormal reaction. And when he was causing trouble, he was hiding under the night sky and was not exposed to the outside world.
But when he put on the robe with the Black Tortoise Totem, it was as if the Black Tortoise had jumped out of the night sky and appeared in the Mystical Land. Of course, the identity of an Outer God would cause an immune reaction in the Mystical Land itself, which led to a series of subsequent events.
After obtaining twenty to thirty percent of the authority that was suspected to have been destroyed, the Black Tortoise was assimilated into the Mystical Land and even had a trace of divinity. In other words, with this opportunity, a certain someone did not become a god, but the totem on his clothes did. Compared to the so-called "artifacts," which were the artifacts used by the gods, the clothes themselves were the carriers of the gods.
It was just that although the starting point was high, the accumulation was insufficient. According to the process of the forging of the Divine Persona that Lin had witnessed with his own eyes in the dream, the Black Tortoise had found its own unique arrangement of authority, but the quantity was insufficient. The Divine Persona formed by the woven divinity authority was only a small one, and it did not even cross the boundary of Lesser Divine Power.
The current situation was that although the totem on the clothes had become a god, it was in a dormant state. On the other hand, it was slowly absorbing power from the air, strengthening itself bit by bit.
Because of this, the Lord of Guardians, Apopros, who did not allow gods to walk in the Mystical Land, did not appear to strip a certain someone naked and insist on throwing the clothes into the non-existent Divine Kingdom.
For this state, a certain someone called it a "demigod" for the time being. And Lin felt that the reason why the Black Tortoise had to go dormant was not just a lack of authority. There should be other factors, but he could not figure them out at this stage.
But this experience also allowed Lin to understand some things. In fact, the follow-up caused by the Black Tortoise totem could be avoided, as long as the totem was just an ordinary pattern. The specific method was to first weave the secret patterns belonging to the eight authorities into the pattern during the weaving process, and leave some flaws in the pattern.
This was an allusion to the 'finishing touch'. Moreover, it was actually quite practical.
When he was planning to make the first set of clothes, he did not think about this, so the Black Tortoise pattern on the silk was complete. Although magic was added to the clothes, it was done from the most fundamental point, which was the enchantment during the silk reeling process. But the weave and pattern of the clothes did not have any magic array patterns that belonged to the Mystical Land.
It was like having a strong physical body without a soul. Any wandering soul could run in and take control of this physical body. And a certain transmigrator who was related to the myths of Earth made the clothes an entity that those mythical beings could attach themselves to, so they ran out of the night sky, and then things got out of hand …
So when he planned to use the three totems of the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, and Vermilion Bird in the future, other than using the magic array patterns that belonged to the Mystical Land on the patterns of the three spiritual beasts, and deliberately leaving flaws, Lin did not plan to use these special totems from Earth on the clothes he was going to wear.
Knowing that it was a landmine, he still wanted to test how to step on it so that it would not explode. How suicidal would one be to do such a thing? Besides, there were a lot of external factors that played a part in getting through the crisis this time. Who could guarantee that the 21 World Trees would help him a second or third time, or even bet that the eight authorities would not kill him the second or third time?
Factors that could not be controlled should not be included in the plan. This was a certain someone's way of thinking.
