“Come to think of it, although our Tower of Dusk has just been established, we do not have many outstanding mages under us. It is their luck to meet such a generous President like you who does not mind spending money on them. d.a.m.n it, I’m jealous of all the magical equipment,” Gerian exclaimed enviously as though he saw a child who drank valuable potions like soda drinks…

“Oh, then how are they performing?” Lin Li asked curiously. “No matter how good the equipment is, it ultimately lies with their users. A lamb that is fully donned in armor would never defeat a lion.”

The batch of people in the Tower of Dusk was all referred by Basel, and not directly trained or brought up by the organization. Although he had interacted with them for some time, it was not to the extent that he could understand all of their background and personalities.

Speaking of this, Lin Li remembered that Basel still owed him an answer. That mage who resembled a Legendary powerhouse actually requested to join the Tower of Dusk that had just been established. He could not bring himself to believe the credibility of this man. After negotiating with Basel, that man promised to tell Lin Li the truth after two months. Afterwards, the Tower of Dusk had to deal with the mission in the Blackstone Mountains and the leftover bandits from Syer. These commitments had postponed his interaction with Basel.

“I’m going to ask that old man to tell me everything when I return!” Lin Li said with determination. Although he knew Basel had no ill intentions, Lin Li did not feel secure leaving this matter hanging.

“What are you saying? What old man?” Gerian asked curiously as Lin Li spoke to himself.

Lin Li waved his arms. “No, it’s nothing. Please continue. How are these people?”

“Hehe. Fella, did you hear how a group of lambs led by a lion could defeat a group of lions led by a lamb? Under my wise leaders.h.i.+p, what are those leftovers from the Syer Bandits? I’m not boasting, but as soon as I entered the battle, I put down more than half of the 2,000 men. The rest of them had no choice but to scurry off like rats.” This achievement made Gerian beam with pride.

“Oh? So the rest of them were the reason that held you and your lambs here for the next two months?” Lin Li asked as he glanced at Gerian skeptically.

“This…” Gerian’s faced dimmed immediately. He smacked his palm on the map in frustration. “d.a.m.n it, that is when my luck took a turn…

“Do you know how long it took me to chase them to this canyon? Two days. Not to mention that they split their men between the two lines of defense on the left and right side, even if they had ballistae and catapults on the last line of defense, it would not be much of an obstacle for us. You wouldn’t imagine what we met when we got really close to their nest.”

“What?” Lin Li asked curiously. He really could not imagine what treasure the leftovers of the Syer Bandits could have.

“The Alchemy Colossus! Do you know? There were four freaking Alchemy Colossuses at least 10 meters tall!” Gerian gestured wildly with his four short and stubby fingers.

Lin Li was shocked by what he heard. How could somebody with alchemy background not know what an Alchemy Colossus was? If the practice of magic was to develop the limits of one’s potential, then the practice of alchemy would no doubt lay in maximizing the use of external forces.

Speaking of the Alchemy Colossus, one just had to talk about the extinction of the Goblin race in Anril. The Goblins did not have mighty powers or notable talents in magic, so they had to depend on external forces to survive. In order to make up for their natural shortcomings, the Goblins used their clever and innovative minds to create the Alchemy Colossus, and integrated it with machinery. They paved the way for a short-term magic civilization called Magic Machinery.

When Lin Li was playing this type of game in the Endless World, he once attempted to explore a relics mission of the Goblin City. It was like a duplicate of the humans’ steampunk era. The products of Magic Machinery were commonly seen in the Goblin’s living environment.
