Advent of the Archmage Chapter 415

It was just a group of Dark Griffin Knights . There were more than 30, which was quite a lot, but they were only at Level-5 . Link took out his Demon Slayer Whip and turned three nearby griffins and their knights into bloody rain with a single strike .

The other Dark Griffin Knights were shocked . The Red Dragon was difficult to handle, and now there were strong reinforcements . They couldn't stay any longer and turned to run .

They were insignificant so Link didn't chase after them . "Let's fly towards Ferde," he told Lannie .

Lannie made the small airship turn and fly towards the Ferde Territory in the southeast . In the cabin, Link turned to look . Felina had already caught on and followed .

The two flew one before another . About half an hour later, Ferde's trademark yellow dirt appeared in their vision . Link pointed at a patch of space . "Let's stop there . "

After stopping, Link jumped out of the airship . Felina gradually descended as well . A few seconds later, she landed with a thump . Lowering her head, she looked at Link strangely . "Master, how come you have Dragon Power?"

Maybe the queen gave it to him but he didn't have it when they separated last time . So what could it be? Was Link secretly of the dragon bloodline? Was his ancestor a dragon? Felina couldn't figure it out .

Link knew about her confusion . He chuckled . "I can't explain it now . I'll tell you in detail when we have time . Did you come this time to find me?"

While speaking, Link was also observing Felina . Since last time, her power had increased as well . Before, she had just entered Level-8 . Now, she was already closer to Level-9 than eight .

Felina took the initiative to explain . "For some reason, the Mana density around the Dragon Valley has increased a lot . All of my race has become stronger… I'm here this time under the queen's orders . She said that the Emerald Council will hold a higher level meeting in the Dragon Valley one month later . All the upper members will group in the Dragon Valley . She wishes you to attend . "

"Oh, I see . "

It was normal that the Mana of Dragon Valley was increasing . The crack was right in the Colorado Mountain Range where the Dragon Valley was located in . This was probably the reason why the Emerald Council would hold the meeting there .

After thinking, Link said, "There's still one more month . There is still a lot of time and you're wounded . Come rest in my territory for a few days . "

"Sure, why not?" Felina smiled .

Link returned to Lannie's airship and they continued flying . To be honest, he really liked this airship . There was a pilot, wind didn't blow in his face, and the seat was comfortable . He could lie down, say a destination, and Lannie would take him there . This was practically his private jet .

He decided he had to find a way to make Lannie his personal pilot . Within ten minutes, the Scorched Ridge of Ferde appeared before them .

Last time Link left Scorched Ridge, he'd spent quite some time in the Dragon Valley . Then he spent some time in the Golden Plains and the Orida Fortress . Adding all that time together, it had been almost half a year .

During this half year, Scorched Ridge had completely changed .

There were many, many new houses built in rings around Scorched Ridge . Because the development happened too quickly, the planning was a bit disorganized and it looked messy from the sky . However, it was a kind of lively mess . It was like the chaos of flora and fauna all growing in spring .

Lannie looked down and was shocked . "So many people! So many horses! So many roads! So many boats in the port!"

Within half a year, the one-mile radius around Scorched Ridge was packed with houses . There were stone houses, thatched shacks, wooden buildings, and many incomplete buildings . On the ground, there were countless moving black spots—all busy workers . There was barely anyone free . Everyone was busy with their tasks .

In the distant pier, countless ships filled with products were driven into the port . At the same time, many left . There were all types of ships, including the new boats of the High Elves, Southern flat-bottomed cargo ships, and even the pointed ships of the Beastmen .

One could clearly feel the bustling liveliness with just a glance . If the North was a dark and icy hell, this was a bright and blazing heaven!

All the clouds in Link's heart from the killing and deaths were scattered by this great vitality .

"Ah," he breathed, leaning back in his seat, entirely relaxed .

Whoosh, whoosh . There was the sound of wings flapping . Two Griffin Warriors had discovered the airship and dragon . They got closer, surrounding them . A officer-like Warrior held a magic musket and pointed at them from afar, yelling, "The Scorched City forbids flight . Land immediately!"

Lannie was a bit upset and looked to Link . "Master, isn't this your territory? Why can't we fly?"

Link wasn't clear either . "It should be for safety," he said with a smile . "Since we're here anyway, let's just land . "

"Lirico City doesn't forbid flying . " Lannie started to descend unwillingly . Felina was here as a guest and naturally followed .

The griffin officer also landed . He walked over to the airship and took out a stamped scroll . "According to Act 125," he began reading, "all flight is forbidden in the airs above the city . Violators shall be fined five silver coins…"

As he spoke, there was a soft sound and the airship cabin opened . Link walked out .

The officer was still reading out loud . "For repeating offenders, the fine shall multiply…"

The soldier beside him recognized Link . He quickly walked over and mumbled, "Sir, it's the lord . "

"What lord… ah, the lord?!" The officer moved the scroll aside and looked . It really was the lord, he realized awkwardly . With the scroll in his hands, it would be bad if he kept reading but he couldn't stop either . He stood rooted to his spot, cold sweat forming on his forehead .

Link chuckled and tossed five gold coins over . "I indeed broke the rules and should be fined . You didn't do anything wrong . This is the fine for my friend and I . The rest is your bonus . "

Unexpectedly, the officer was stubborn . He insisted on only taking one gold coin . His reasoning was just as well . "Lord, this is my duty . I don't need any bonuses . The fine for you two is ten silver coins, or one gold coin combined . I cannot take any more . "

He had a personality and Link appreciated people with principle . He didn't insist on his own way and accepted the four extra gold coins . Patting the officer's shoulder, he said, "Good job . Keep doing well . "

"Yes, Lord . " The officer straightened and saluted to Link . There was more sweat on his forehead now . No one could know how much stress he felt before Link .

Link didn't stay there for long . He waved at Felina who had transformed into her human shape and walked towards Scorched Ridge with Lannie .

When the three went far, the soldiers let out a breath . The officer's legs turned to jelly and he almost collapsed . Holding onto a soldier, he said, "Support me . I'm going to faint . "

Even if Link hadn't purposely released his Legendary aura, it still caused immense mental pressure on these regular Warriors . He also had prestige as the lord and his reputation as a Magician . The officer had even talked back at Link . They were already commendable .

On the other hand, Link was walking on the road filled with mud and horse feces . He felt so uncomfortable .

Lannie jumped around and said, "Ah, it's so smelly, so smelly . This place is drowning in horse feces . "

It looked impressive from the sky but inside it, she felt like she was in a waste pit . Felina was more straightforward . She took out a veil and held her nose .

Link could only chuckle wryly . "It'll get better . It's developing too fast now and many things can't catch up . "

Humans relied on horses for transportation . When there were more horses, naturally there would be feces everywhere . They couldn't compete with the Yabbas .

However, after three minutes, a new carriage came from behind to their side and slowed gradually . There was a knight beside it too . He jumped down the horse and saluted to Link . "Lord, please enter the carriage . "

Link didn't recognize this knight but his armor had Link's emblem . He had to be a subordinate so Link opened the door and climbed in . Once inside, the three were finally relieved .

"Once our craftsmen are here, I'm going to make them invent a car to get rid of the waste," Lannie said seriously . "They'll shovel the waste on the road every day . Otherwise, this city isn't livable . "

She gesticulated as she spoke and her expressions were dramatic . Link and Felina were both tickled .

The group reached the heart of the territory—Scorched Ridge .

There were walls around Scorched Ridge . Within it, the terrain flattened immediately . There were stone tiles on the ground as well . Instead of horse feces, there were flowers on the side of the road . The passersby were dressed properly as well . It was like a different world .

Scorched Ridge was faintly like the elite area of a city now . The radius had changed a lot too, even including the Mage Tower 900 feet away . Link also discovered that there were three medium-sized Mage Towers under construction right now .

"Lucy did pretty well," he had to say .

The development was much faster than he'd predicted . If he had to do this himself, he would go crazy .

Just as he was lamenting, the carriage arrived at the entrance of the Mage Tower . Link got out the carriage and realized the door was already open . Eliard was smiling at him .

Link stared at Eliard in shock . Within half a year, this guy had reached the pinnacle of Level-6 . Judging from his focused eyes and calm composure, he had quite an attainment in magic .

Link was extremely pleased at the improvement of his good friend . He walked up and embraced Eliard, patting his back heavily before letting go . They met eyes and laughed heartily .

"You're stronger than I'd expected," Eliard lamented .

"You've improved beyond my imaginations," Link said happily . He really wished Eliard could catch up . That way, he wouldn't have to fight alone .

"Come, let us wait in the Mage Tower . Manager Lucy and Commander Jacker will come promptly . "

Link nodded . He waved at Lannie and Felina; the three entered the Mage Tower together .

There were more than 50 apprentices in the main lobby . They all stood up, not daring to even breathe . When Link's group finally walked up to the second floor, they all let out a sigh of relief . Then the discussions started .

"Is that the lord?"

"He's so powerful . I couldn't even raise my head . My heart was pounding . "

"No sh*t! The lord is a Level-8 Magician! He's the most powerful human!"

Link couldn't hear any of that because he was already at the main hall of the second floor . This was the place for official Magicians and the numbers lessened considerably . There were only a dozen people here . Link recognized some but others he'd never seen before . They had joined afterwards .

Link saw Rylai here .

She had gotten much taller and was now a Level-2 Magician . She was even more like a water spirit now . There seemed to be a layer of water light around her . This was indeed extraordinary water talent .

Right now, she sat in the corner reading . She didn't know Link was back but when she heard footsteps, she looked up instinctively and was shocked . Standing up quickly, she said, "Tutor . "

Link made a sound in response . He actually felt the most guilt towards Rylai . He had planned on teaching her personally but never had time . Then he'd handed her to Milda but Milda ended up staying in Aragu .

A child with such great potential for water magic was about to be wasted by him .

He couldn't stay there anymore and started upstairs . At the same time, he vowed that he would find a responsible and talented Tutor for Rylai .

At the stairs, he asked, "Is Celine here?"

"No, she is currently in the Girvent Forest dealing with the people from Delonga . She doesn't return often . Now, she's the Death Scythe now . That's how powerful she is," Eliard said, laughing .

"What about bullets?"

"Master Weissmuller makes them for her . That's all he does now . "

"Great," Link replied . But inside, he felt uncomfortable .

He hurried all over the place to help others but neglected those closest to him . One was his official apprentice; the other was the love of his life . This couldn't do .

Before the main hall of the top floor, Eliard said, "Celine uses this hall now . Only she can open the rune at the door . "

Link glanced at it and chuckled . "I still remember the code . "

He entered the code and the magic door opened . The group entered and took their seats . Within a while, there were many footsteps .

Link looked over and was met with a bunch of people, including King Leon .
