Gerian the fatty forgot to close his mouth as he looked on. He, who knew Felic better than most, secretly thought to himself, d.a.m.n it, he was only a level-7 or 8 mage when he first arrived in Jarrosus, and only started learning magic not too long ago. He seems to improve at a tremendous speed, and just like that, he has become a Legendary-mage.

Ever since Andoine, there had not been a figure like that in Jarrosus, and Gerian was upset that he had nothing boast about whenever he met other mages.

“d.a.m.n it, this Felic is from Jarrosus’ Guild of Magic; if we were to trace it all the way back and his teacher is Andoine, that old fellow’s from Jarrosus too.” After recovering from his shock, Gerian immediately started happily picturing what he could boast about in the future. “A Legendary-mage at the age of 20? None of the geniuses that the Guilds of Magic in Felan boast about can measure up to him.”

While the old fatty Gerian was happily thinking about everything he could boast about, the others in the Tower of Dusk saw hope. They saw how wonderful the future of the Tower of Dusk could be. A good background and backing were important in every occupation, and if one’s boss was influential, then they would be able to enjoy the benefits of it too, but if one’s boss was lacking, then there was a limit to how far one could go as well.

“Legendary, Legendary-realm indeed!” Gavin initially only joined the Guild of Magic because of Mr Basel’s request, and he was ambitious too. He had thought about taking over after seeing that Lin Li was so young, but after seeing how Lin Li dealt with the Syer Bandits, this thought had been banished.

The fact that the President was now a Legendary-mage did not only concern him. The Malfa Family was able to flourish because they had a Legendary-mage. The Tower of Dusk had only been established not long ago, and they had thought that they would have to work incredibly hard for a long time before they could enjoy some fame. Now that their President was a Legendary-mage, it would not only serve as deterrence to others, but also attract many mages who wished to receive some guidance from a Legendary-mage even at the expense of paying for it.

Gavin was elated and thankful at the same time; thankful because he had been discerning and did not leave a bad impression on the President, and elated because the reputation of the Tower of Dusk would be better now that the President was a Legendary-mage. Since he was the President’s right-hand man, his status would also rise accordingly.

Mr Basel was said to join as the Head Referee too, and then, once the Tower of Dusk had two Legendary-mages leading them, who would dare belittle them? Gavin was still an ambitious man, except that now, his ambition had become motivation for him to help the President manage the Guild of Magic well instead of vying for the President’s spot. When the Guild of Magic became more influential, so would he as the right-hand man of the President.

The other mages of the Tower of Dusk were all thinking about the same thing as Gavin as they all knew that having a Legendary-mage in the organization made a world of difference. No matter how powerful an organization was, if it lacked a Legendary powerhouse, then it would always seem to be lacking in foundation as though it might fall any time.

The mages of the Malfa Family finally understood why Hutton had emphasized time and again not to come into conflict with the people of the Tower of Dusk. They had thought that the Malfa Family had a Legendary-mage backing them, and thus they did not care much for a newly established Guild of Magic. Now, however, they realized that the Tower of Dusk also had a Legendary-mage, and a young one of only 20 years old at that.

n.o.body could say for sure whether they would become an Archmage or a Legendary-mage or a Sanctuary Master. However, it was almost certain for a 20 years old Legendary-mage to become a Sanctuary Master as all he needed was time. After all, the G.o.d of Mages Geresco had received top-notch education when he was younger, yet he had only become a Legendary-mage at 30 years old.

The mages of the Malfa Family stared at the mages of the Tower of Dusk with envy and a tinge of awe.

Nothing was perfect in the world, and even though the Alchemy Colossuses were so powerful that even Lin Li would have a hard time going against them, he was an Alchemy Guru who knew everything there was to know about the Alchemy Colossus. There was no need to go head-on against them.

Lin Li immediately flew towards the four Alchemy Colossuses after he finished making the Disintegrating Array instrument. It was tedious to make an Alchemy Colossus, because it was very time-consuming, and that was not considering the various magical ingredients that were needed. It would be much easier to just steal them, especially since he did not have to disintegrate all the Alchemy Arrays on the Alchemy Colossuses, since he could just use the Disintegrating Array to disintegrate some of the core ones for the machine to become useless.

Given that Lin Li was an Alchemy Guru, it was all too easy for him to locate the core arrays on an Alchemy Colossus’ body.

d.a.m.n it, this was good stuff. Even though there were flaws in the arrangement of the Alchemy Arrays, it would save him a lot of time compared to actually building one. He could just modify it a bit, and maybe it would reach the Legendary level. Then, he would have another trump card he could use. Lin Li held the Disintegrating Array instrument in his hand, already regarding the four Alchemy Colossuses as his new possession.

These four Alchemy Colossuses could be controlled by any Magic Shooter, and if he could have four nearly Legendary-level Alchemy Colossuses to help him in battles, then they would definitely be a treasure of the Tower of Dusk.

Everyone’s attention was on Lin Li as they wondered how this young Legendary-mage was going to turn the tables around. Some of them thought that a Legendary-mage would easily capture the Alchemy Colossuses, but others were worried that he would not be able to do so, since even Legendary-mages differed from each other. While Lin Li was definitely a Legendary-mage, he was only 20 years old, and surely he must have only been in the Legendary-realm for a short while—it was worrying to think about how he was going to face four Alchemy Colossuses which were comparable to a Legendary magical beast each.
