Chapter 470 - Return
Connoris sent another segment of ancient demon language into Lin Li’s consciousness, and said, “Because the Lord of Darkness has already been fused into the Dragon of Destruction’s magical crystal, this Throne of Darkness has already lost its master. You can leave behind your own Soul Brand on the Throne of Darkness by using this demon language phrase and become the new master of the Throne of Darkness. As for those treasures, won’t they belong to you?”
“Is that so? I wouldn’t be kept here forever, right?” Lin Li asked carefully.
“This Throne of Darkness is actually similar to the Eternal Furnace. They both float within a Crack of Space. As long as you find another Crack of Space outside, you can summon it whenever you like.”
Hutton saw Lin Li steer the Humerus Wyrm to land and quickly brought the Magic Lamp over, saying, “President Felic, we have to find the Throne of Darkness next. I wonder if you have any suggestions?”
Lin Li took over the Magic Lamp, and smilingly said, “Don’t be hasty, we can’t leave immediately.”
All of their experiences after entering the Abyss of Tharlen had allowed Lin Li, this young President of the Guild of Magic, to leave an impression in Hutton’s mind that he was omnipotent. Achieving the Legendary-realm by 20 years of age, single-handedly defeating the Lord of Darkness left behind by the Dragon of Destruction, and screwing over the notorious Lord of Souls, Mephistos, while he was at it. From Hutton’s point of view, this was no longer considered human. Only the word “demonic” could be used to describe this monstrous young president. Hutton was even unable to imagine whether there was anything in this world that this monster could not achieve…
Since this monster already had plans, then Hutton would naturally be at ease and patiently wait. After all, everything had already surpassed his imagination. Even if he wanted to worry, he did not have the ability.
Lin Li shot a glance at the spot where Hutton disappeared, and continued, “Mr Tutankhamun, you said ‘the chosen one’. What does that mean?”
“You will know about this later. Since you’ve passed the test, then these three items will be passed to you as arranged.” Tutankhamun did not answer Lin Li’s question, but gave him the three items that Geresco had left behind instead.
Lin Li was finally at ease. It seemed like he did not have to exchange anything. Since it was like this, there was no need to stand on ceremony. Lin Li impolitely pocketed the items with excitement.
“You still remember what we talked about, right?” Tutankhamun asked.
Lin Li, who just kept the items, nodded his head, and said, “Yes, the issue about the Crack of Space.”
This time, he also thought that these three items were not given for free. No matter how much he did not want to be a savior, there were some things that he had to do for his own survival.
“That’s right. You must remember that there is not much time left. If you are unable to reach the Sanctuary-realm before the Crack of Space opens, then there’ll be dire consequences…”
“Yes.” Lin Li nodded his head and did not ask what the consequences were.
After all, those consequences surely would be something like the total destruction of Anril…
Lin Li was not concerned whether Anril would be destroyed or not, and he had no interest in becoming some great hero that saved the entire world. But the issue was that once the Tear of Space opened, countless prehistoric magical beasts would charge into Anril. This was not something funny. If it was not dealt with properly, it could be fatal to everyone…
Lin Li was not willing to save the world, but if he could save his life by saving the world, Lin Li would not mind it…
But, wasn’t the Sanctuary-realm a little too far? Furthermore, it had to be within three to five years. This was simply forcing him to do the impossible…
Although he had already obtained the three treasures of Geresco, only a mage that had truly broken through to the Legendary-realm would know how hard it was to proceed to the Sanctuary-realm from the Legendary-realm. Every level from level-20 to level-24 had a gigantic gap before it. For many Legendary-mages, one such gap was sufficient to spend their life on.
Which mage that had entered the Legendary-realm was not a person filled with talent? But how many of these people filled with talent had advanced past level-20 in their lives?
Tutankhamun raised three fingers, and said, “Three years. You’d better be prepared that you only have three years. Geresco estimated the next magic tide’s arrival time, but he could not accurately pinpoint the year. There were too many anomalies, and thus he could not take everything into consideration. Hence, although it is said to be within three to five years, you need to prepare based on the shortest deadline possible so that no accidents will happen.”
To attain Sanctuary-realm within three years. This was something impossible no matter whom you asked. There was not a single person that dared to say that he’d reach Sanctuary-realm in 30 or even 300 years, not to mention three years.
“I’ll try my best…” Lin Li’s face had a wry smile. Time was running out.
