d.a.m.n, this human being is terrible, he is even more demonic than demons! Angelano manipulated the alchemy machine; he had already left Lin Li’s side. He stared at Lin Li, the young mage who he’d initially thought was easy to deal with, keeping his guard up. At this moment, after watching Lin Li torture the Fire Demon King, he began to recall the conditions that he had discussed with Lin Li previously. If it were not for the alchemy machine, Angelano would have long been scared soulless.
Angelano was known as one of the three most powerful warriors of Osric, but after leaving the t.i.tan-level Alchemy Colossus, he was just a Goblin that even ordinary people could beat. He had profound knowledge in Alchemy and superb alchemical skills, but he would only feel safe when he was hiding in the t.i.tan-level Alchemy Colossus. Hence, Osric was the only one who knew that the mighty Angelano was actually only a timid Goblin.
Lin Li’s actions were way more brutal than the demons’, and Angelano was obviously terrified. Even though he had already run far, far away, he was still trembling, and the sounds of his alchemy machine clinking could still be heard.
However, no one was paying attention to Angelano now, because the scream that suddenly sounded on a spiritual level was particularly shrill and miserable. The fear that it caused in the humans was no less than the horror it brought to Angelano. The shrieks of pain made everyone empathize with the demon, and everyone’s soul was secretly trembling.
Rosen, who had always regarded Lin Li as an eyesore, had a somber and sullen expression at this moment. He stood still and remained silent while feeling fearful towards Lin Li because of the latter’s brutal means and nature. Although he didn’t know what Lin Li asked the Fire Demon King about, he felt that any piece of information, be it significant or not, would probably result in an unpredictable change.
Moreover, Rosen was also a master of mageweaths, and when he saw Lin Li drawing the mageweath of the Celestial Purification Fire, he felt an inexplicable horror in his heart. It was no wonder that Master Moke continuously sang praises about Lin Li after returning from the Tower of Dusk which he had drawn a mageweath for. Despite being a true Master of Inscription, he still found it difficult to draw the Celestial Purification Fire with ease within a short period of time. Besides, Felic, who was only in his early twenties, had only achieved great progress and attainments in magic, yet he also had great achievements in drawing mageweaths, pharmaceutics, and inscription. He found a enemy like him to be terrible.
Aldwin and Macklin glanced at each other, but they both saw a trace of shock and fear in each other’s eyes. Using a Master-level G.o.dly Soul Potion as the cost, and activating the Celestial Purification Fire potion to torment the soul of the Fire Demon King was probably something that only the lunatic Lin Li could think of.
Although Andoine was Lin Li’s teacher, he had not been teaching Lin Li magic for that long; hence, he did not know much about Lin Li, either. After witnessing Lin Li’s behavior, he could not help but secretly think to himself, d.a.m.n it, this kid is more ruthless than I am. That Fire Demon King is already dead, yet he’s still torturing his soul.
Of course, although Andoine was also taken aback with Lin Li’s behavior, he did not think that Lin Li went overboard. After all, his opponent was an Abyssal Demon—their enemy. The only thing that he felt sorry about was the loss of the G.o.dly Soul Potion. After all, even if the Fire Demon King knew some information about the mausoleum, it probably wouldn’t be significant. Otherwise, the Fire Demon would have long plundered it.
Lin Li also ended the cordial conversation with the Fire Demon King, and stood up to turn around, only to see that the mages had all taken a step back in shock. Of course, everyone was just behaving subconsciously. After all, the miserable cry of the demon’s spirit had given them too much of an impact.
Lin Li smiled indifferently, and pointed to the depths of the palace before saying, “After we pa.s.s through this, we’ll reach the real burial place of Osric. He’s said that it’s on the top floor of the central tower. I believe he wouldn’t dare to lie to me. If everyone has already rested enough, let’s continue and set off.”
Lin Li had tortured the Fire Demon King for a long time, but no one asked much about what information he got. Rosen knew that even if he asked, he would be unlikely to obtain the real answer. Hence, he decided not to ask about it at all. Meanwhile, Andoine and Aldwin seemed to have also known that no matter what information Lin Li had gotten, the latter would definitely speak up if it were related to the safety of everyone. Since he refused to speak, he definitely had his reasons for keeping mum.
Although they were put in dangerous predicaments while fighting in the previous battles, they did not use up too much power or energy. Hence, after a little discussion, the leaders agreed to go with Lin Li’s proposal, and proceeded to continue exploring the depths of the palace.
All of the mageweaths in the tall and s.p.a.cious palace had become dimmer, and the original silence was restored. The battle marks on the ground were soon cleaned up as if nothing had happened.
However, there was a new screaming resident sealed in the Summoning Lamp in Lin Li’s Ring of Endless Storm.
“Despicable human being, shameless liar, I have told you everything I know and you won’t be able to get anything out from me anymore. Let me out!” the Fire Demon King roared in exasperation, and his ma.s.sive Spiritual Force continuously impacted the seal on the Summoning Lamp, causing large rays of radiant light to emanate from it.
In fact, when Lin Li took out the Summoning Lamp to seal the Fire Demon King, the latter was more worried than excited. With his level-24 abilities that were close to the Sanctuary-realm, he felt that there was no way the insignificant human mage Lin Li would be able to seal him, even with the magic lamp created by Osric. He felt that he could use the power of the seal to leave his body and teach the despicable Lin Li a hard lesson.
