“BOOM!” The loud sound was like a bomb that exploded above Ronald’s head. At that moment, Ronald really felt like his head had been bombed. That feeling was like a large and invisible hand had grabbed onto his heart and squeezed tightly. After that, it was like a surge of cold air came from beneath his feet...

There were flares all over the sky. Coupled with the searing heat, they made it feel like a plague was surging towards the guard towers. The power of the Flaming Storm was the most incisive at this point. Ronald was only stunned for a moment, and the sky full of flares already surged towards him. When he realized it, and tried to retreat, it was already too late. He could but watch as the flares swallowed the guard tower.

In that second, Ronald seemed to have heard a hasty chanting. After that, the old man behind him raised his magic staff, and the large gem embedded at the top instantly gave of a dazzling light. In the blink of an eye, a gale swept past. When these two magical forces collided, even space seemed to have been distorted. While the gale swept past and the blazing flames let up for a moment, the old man seized the chance to grab Ronald’s collar.

“Jump!”

The two of them seemed to have jumped off the guard tower at the same time. The old man hastily chanted while he was midair. With the support of the Levitation Spell, the two of them landed softly on the ground like leaves.

Ronald was a level-fifteen warrior. After the initial shock, he quickly regained composure a high-level warrior should have. When his feet had just landed on the ground, his crimson red Combat Energy had started to spread. It protected himself and the old man behind him. With the sky full of roaring flares, they could no longer take a step forward.

“It really is him!” The old man did not mention any names, but Ronald knew that “him” referred to the Emerald Tower’s Felic.

“What... What do we do?” After thinking about the danger just now, Ronald could not help but break out in a cold sweat. This time, he really did not dare not to trust what the old man said. Ronald swallowed his saliva with difficulty. The gaze from his only eye showed that he was panic-stricken.

“Gather up the forces. We must counterattack as soon as possible. I will try my best to buy you time.” After the old man said that, another hasty recitation was heard. With the support of the Levitation Spell, he was like a black arrow, flying towards that chain of mountains.

Lin Li stood at spacious flat ground. He observed the Demon Fall Valley while hastily reciting. At his back, there were at least a hundred mages gathered. Furthermore, there were countless mages wearing robes in a location further away. They rushed over one by one. At this time, the majority of them were looking at this twenty years old young mage with fear.

Almost all of the mages in Jarrosus had come here this time. Other than the members of the Emerald Tower, there were at least five hundred men that were deployed by the forces of Jarrosus. Within the past few months, they more or less heard from their own leaders that there was a genius in the Emerald Tower. A genuine genius. His talent was unsurpassed, and his strength was immense. At the same time, he had a deep knowledge of pharmaceutics. Almost every praise could be used describing this genius. It was especially so for those like Ysera that knew well how powerful Lin Li was. They gave out warnings repeatedly before setting off. Don’t ever go against the words of Mage Felic or question Mage Felic’s decisions. Otherwise, even the Magick Potion may not save you...

After the repeated warnings, the name “Felic” had long been etched deep inside everyone’s minds. It could be said that none of the hundreds of mages present were strangers to the name “Felic”. Other than a lucky few, almost nobody had seen him take action with their own eyes. For most of the mages, everything were just rumors.

Those that were more timid had maintained a peculiar reverence for him from the start, viewing him as though he was a demon from the Abyss. Those that were braver had thought otherwise. They had always felt that no matter how powerful this Felic was, he was just an overrated young genius...

But now, be it those braver or those more timid, they had a thorough understanding of the prowess of this young mage. There was incomparable strength and violence. In just that short instant, he had already cast almost ten Flaming Storms. The casting speed was fast, and the execution was powerful. It was simply terrifying...

Almost all of the mages could not tolerate it, and swallow their saliva. They used a gaze normally designated to view monsters as they stared at that young mage who was reciting incantations. All of them could not help but mumble to themselves, “Is this something a f*cking human can do? Could it be that this guy’s a magical beast that’s wearing human skin?”

“Weird, why is this guy so familiar?” After Lin Li had released the tenth Flaming Storm, he took a breather. After that, he saw that there was a familiar silhouette flying from afar. Lin Li could not help but feel uncertain. He pointed at the familiar silhouette flying over to him and inquired Gerian, who was beside him.

Gerian was laughing while watching Lin Li cast spells. Each time a Flaming Storm was cast, Gerian’s smile would get more sheepish. When the tenth Flaming Storm was released, the fatty had already turned around and looked at the leaders of the 16 forces with a gaze that was up to no good. The meaning behind his gaze was just too obvious. Take a look, just take a look. This is the pride of the Emerald Tower. All you of trash actually dared to be arrogant when the Emerald Tower was down and out. Do you want to end up like Shadow’s Nest?

Nobody wanted to...

So, the leaders of the 16 forces buried their heads. Nobody dared to look at Gerian. It was not a joke. To look straight at this fatty at this time? What if he took it as a challenge? This damned fatty was still gullible, but what if Mage Felic took it seriously?

After scanning through the faces of the leaders of the 16 forces, Gerian finally gave a satisfied smile, but he only smiled midway when he heard Lin Li’s voice from the side. After that, Gerian’s smile suddenly froze. “F*ck, that’s Old Merlin!”

“What?”

Lin Li had a shock, and looked at the silhouette flying fast in the sky. The more he looked, the more familiar it was. It was the same magical wave, and the same figure. The only thing that was different would be that he seemed to be more frail as compared to back then in Jarrosus. But, the magical wave being emitted from his body seemed to be stronger than before..

“It really is Old Merlin...”

“Nonsense, I have fought with Old Merlin for decades. Even if he were to turn into ashes, I would still recognize this old man...” Gerian finished his rambling, and then started to frown. “F*ck, this old man. I knew that he wouldn’t disappear so easily. As expected, this old man had actually teamed up with the Shadow’s Nest. I told you so—where else could that idiot, Evan, get such balls. He knew that he could not afford to offend the Emerald Tower, but he actually dared to go against me every time. So, it was actually this old man pulling the strings behind the scenes...”

This time, Gerian was really troubled.

Old Merlin was one of the strongest mages in Jarrosus. Even if it was Gerian with his full powers, he had not been able to overcome this old man after fighting for tens of years. The only time he won was when he relied on the Awakening Potion that Felic gave him.

“F*ck, this time, it really is going to be troublesome. My mana has collapsed, where do we find an Archmage to take him out?”

“I’ll go talk to him...”

“What are you going to talk to him about—” Gerian had not finished speaking when the expression on his face froze. He stood there with a dazed look; his mouth was wide open as though he had seen a mouse rape an elephant. “F*ck, what the hell. Bastard, when did you break through to the Archmage realm? Why is it that I did not know of it...”

“You didn’t ask me, either...” Lin Li dropped that sentence, and flew over towards Old Merlin with the support of the Levitation Spell.

“F*ck, this bastard is getting more and more out of hand. He actually hid it from me...” Gerian’s tone was anguished, but his fat face was already smiling jovially. This was truly a surprise within a surprise. No matter how well informed he was, he would never imagine that this kid had already broken through to the Archmage realm after going to Alanna for two months...

“He really is an Archmage...” Ysera had swallowed his saliva. Yesterday, back at the Emerald Tower, he had already faintly felt it, but he just did not dare to believe it. Now, he had seen it with his own eyes. Ysera had no choice but to admit that there were always some people in this world that could not be measured by common sense. Profound knowledge and unsurpassed talent. Many times, they could only be described as “monsters”...

As for the hundreds of mages that came to the Demon Fall Valley this time round, all of their jaws were wide open. If those ten Flaming Storms had made them dumbfounded earlier, then this Levitation Spell almost scared them to death...

F*ck, an Archmage in his twenties. Was there anything more monstrous in this world?

When the crowd was discussing, Lin Li had already flown to the sky above the Demon Fall Valley.

“It’s been a while, Mage Felic.” This pair of young and old Archmages had stopped at the same time when the distance between them was a hundred meters. Old Merlin’s voice sounded more frail than when he had been at Jarrosus.

“It’s been a while, Merlin Family Head Matthew.”

“I don’t know if I can ask what is the purpose for Mage Felic to come over to the Demon Fall Valley today?”
