Chapter 881: Eternal Darkness
And what makes Gergila even more frightened is the terrifying spell casting speed of the other party, you must know that for legendary magic, it is not only the fast chanting of spells, but also the casting speed can be fast, just like taking a bucket of water, if it is a water pipe, no matter how big the water pipe is, there will always be a waiting time, but if it is directly from the big river. If the magic output of ordinary magicians is like a water pipe, then the magic output of the forest is undoubtedly a rushing river. If it weren't for the need to chant spells, if it weren't for the need for elemental ordering, I'm afraid that legendary magic could be completely instantaneous.
The arena was completely covered in ice and snow, and a sun-like fireball suddenly appeared in the sky above the arena, illuminating the entire arena as bright as day. And under the reflection of the ice and snow, there was no longer a trace of shadow in the arena for a while, and Gergila, who used the dark guard, couldn't help but be forced out of the shadows.
The second disadvantage of the Dark Guardian is that there is no Guardian without Darkness. Of course, in principle, darkness is everywhere in this world, but whoever made it possible to create a small area without shadows in the arena. If it was outside, Gergila could have flashed out of the area and cleaned up the opponent with the help of the dark guard, but here he could only show up, otherwise he would have to jump out of the field, wouldn't that be tantamount to taking the initiative to admit defeat.
The legendary magic Sunfall was actually used for lighting, and Gergila was almost so angry that she vomited blood when she saw such a scene. Of course, even if he really wanted to vomit blood, with his skeleton-like body, there would be no blood to vomit at all. And at this time, before he could react, countless powerful magic had already swept over like a storm.
In the stands of the arena, those dark believers were completely frightened, and everyone almost held their breath and watched the fierce battle on the field, not daring to make the slightest strange noise. From the very beginning, Lin Li and Gergira walked onto the field, and everyone in the stands already decided in their hearts the outcome of this battle. Although the young magician was a guest invited by the Chief High Priest Sendros, he was too young in the eyes of everyone. Yes, at such an age, reaching the legendary realm and becoming a twenty-third level legendary mage is indeed very remarkable, but experience takes years to accumulate, and it is not just talent that can erase the gap in experience.
But now, the dark believers in the stands know that under absolute power, the role that experience can play can indeed be almost erased. Those powerful magics, although some of them are even unknown to everyone, but just looking at the layers of ripples on the magic protection around the field, you can fully imagine the terrifying power that destroys the world. In this battle, who wins and who loses, although everyone is unwilling to admit it, but the Great Priest of Gergila has obviously fallen behind, and there is still no need to guess the victory or defeat.
However, Lin Li didn't want to end the battle too quickly, because he still remembered that it was a competition, and he wanted to learn more about dark magic through the competition. Therefore, although it seems that the magic storm is terrifying, it is only to force Gergila to use all his strength, in fact, he has always grasped a degree, a degree that allows Gergila to hold on and have the strength to fight back.
"Darkness is eternity, and everything in the world will eventually return to darkness!" Gergila paused the staff in his hand on the ground, and suddenly the white ice and snow under his feet turned black as if it had been stained with ink, and continued to expand rapidly. And the oncoming magical storm suddenly lost all color after entering the area of black snow, drowning in endless darkness, as if it had never existed.
"Eternal darkness? This is probably the dark magic recorded in the Dark Scriptures. Seeing that all the magic attacks had disappeared inexplicably, Lin Li's face was not surprised, and his eyes also flashed with excitement. Although he has not studied dark magic specifically, he also has some understanding of the various dark magic circulating on the Anriel continent. And the magic that Gergila had just used, perhaps called Eternal Darkness, was not in Lin Li's memory, and he couldn't think of any other source except the Dark Cult.
Moreover, from the spell cast by Gergila just now, Lin Li did not feel too many fluctuations in magic, but felt a divine aura as if facing the Light Divine Technique, which further affirmed the speculation in his heart. When many people think of darkness, they immediately associate it with evil, but just because evil likes to lurk in the darkness doesn't mean that the darkness is necessarily evil. After all, the two great temples of light and darkness used to be one, and the temple of light had the magic of light, and it was impossible for the temple of darkness to be without something similar.
Although the immediate crisis was solved at once, Gergila was secretly complaining in his heart, eternal darkness was not something that could be used casually. Don't look at the magic storm that swallowed the other party at once, but how much magic you swallow, how much magic you have to pay, and this time you directly let your magic power almost bottom out, how much magic power does that perverted guy have!
Gergila is now completely convinced, and in the environment of the Dark Temple, his strength is enough to compete with the legendary powerhouses of level twenty-four. However, the opponent's legendary mage of the twenty-third level has not improved his strength in the slightest in this environment, and he may even be suppressed to a certain extent. is obviously in favor of himself, but he still ends up in such a situation where he is almost powerless, which can only show that the other party's strength is much higher than his own.
But now, Gergila doesn't want to admit defeat, and there are still a lot of dark believers in the surrounding stands. Thinking about how to save face for the other party at the beginning, I didn't expect that now I am about to lose face!
And just when Gergila was in a dilemma, the four high priests, including Zochira, who was found by Sendros, were standing in front of a huge crystal ball, watching everything that happened in the arena. Watching Gergila being forced out of the Dark Guardian, watching Lin Li's stormy magical bombardment, and watching Gergila have to use Eternal Darkness to protect herself. Although the magic storm disappeared without a trace in the eternal darkness, Zocira and the others knew in their hearts that the victory or defeat had actually come to an end at this time.
"You guys, don't you remember what I said?" Senderos turned his back to everyone, his eyes were also fixed on the picture in the crystal ball, although his tone was calm, his heart was actually also full of shock at the strength that Lin Li had shown.
"This, between Gergila and Master Ferre, is just a fight, we are not the slightest rude to him, and Master Ferrei is also happy to exchange practical experience with Gergilla." Zochira replied with some trepidation.
"Hmph, I don't know your mind yet, how is it now, are you relieved?" Sendros didn't get angry, after all, in fact, the five high priests were also worried about the fate of the Dark Temple, and this time they did not act rudely towards Lin Li, and they did not squeeze Lin Li in words to carry out this so-called exchange.
"Yes, Master Ferry's strength is indeed impressive, and I believe that in this matter, it will definitely be able to help us a lot." Zochira and the others hurriedly replied, but there was still some reservation in their words, only saying that they could help, but they didn't say anything about everything relying on him or anything like that.
"Forget it, in order to avoid this kind of thing again, it's time for me to reveal some information to you. Why do I value him so much, just for his twenty-third level strength, for his grandmaster-level potion attainments, and for the power of the Tower of Dusk? Let me tell you, I'm pretty sure he's the one we've been looking for in the Dark Temple! Sendros decided to reassure the high priests, lest something happen to them while he was away. Once or twice, Lin Li may not feel anything, but three or four times, with Lin Li's temper, I'm afraid things will really be difficult to clean up.
"What, he's the guy we're looking for? How could it be, there was not a trace of darkness on his body! Zochira and the others were shocked, which was even more unbelievable than what Sendros had said before.
"Would I joke with you about this kind of thing!" Sendros silenced everyone's discussion with a word, and continued: "In the next few days, I will go to the Altar of Eternal Darkness to verify some things, and I don't want to hear that you have done anything rude to him when I come back." Otherwise, you will become sinners in the Dark Temple! Go ahead. ”
The four High Priests left the room with complicated expressions and walked in the direction of the arena, slowly digesting the shock caused by Sendros's words. They knew what Sendros said, and they didn't have to doubt it, but they couldn't convince themselves in their hearts. If the other party is really the person that the Dark Temple has been looking for, then this crisis in the Dark Temple may indeed be overcome with his help. But the problem is that everyone is the great priest of the Dark Temple, and they should be very sensitive to the aura of darkness, but from the time they saw the magician of Nafer until he fought with Gergilla, he didn't feel a trace of the dark aura on his body, how can this be explained.
With questions in their minds, the four high priests finally returned to the arena, but by this time the arena had completely returned to silence. The dark believers in the stands had all left, and the magic protection around the venue had been put away, only Lin Li and Jergila were sitting together and exchanging everything in the battle just now.
"Zochira, Pradio...... Where have you been?" Gergila felt something bad when she saw that the four men had only come at this time. I don't know when the four of them left, but if it was something else, the four of them wouldn't leave together, after all, this matter was to test the strength of Ferre Mage, which was the most important thing now.
"We went to the High Priest of Sendros to talk about something, and what happened to the outcome of your discussion with Master Ferry." Zochira asked knowingly, but it was also a hint to Gergila that Sendros didn't care about it anymore.
Gergila secretly breathed a sigh of relief, turned her head to look at Lin Li, and said with admiration: "Master Ferry's strength is indeed convincing. This exchange has really benefited me a lot, and I really hope that I will have the opportunity to ask Master Ferrey more in the future. Moreover, what made him even more convincing was that in the end, the other party did not let himself be unable to get off the stage, but cleverly designed a tie situation, which made him feel comfortable and more convinced of the other party's strength.
"The Great Priest of Gergila is too polite, your attainments in dark magic have given me a lot of insights, and I hope to ask you more about dark magic in the future." Lin Li said modestly.
After that, Lin Li and Gergila continued to discuss the knowledge of magic, and Zoqila and the others also joined in, but except for Gergila, who didn't know the situation, the other four high priests looked at Lin Li with a much stronger sense of scrutiny.
In fact, when it comes to fighting with Jergilla, Lin Li's gain is not very big, but discussing the problem with the five high priests later is definitely a big gain. After all, these five high priests are all strong men who use dark power, although the werewolf Pradio and the black knight Nostaro do not use dark magic, but their power also comes from dark power, which can make Lin Li have a better understanding of dark power from another direction.
After a pleasant conversation, Lin Li stood up and said goodbye to the five high priests, preparing to go back and combine the knowledge of the Book of Eternity to digest today's harvest. However, just as he was about to leave, he was stopped by the High Priest of Zochira, and asked strangely, "High Priest Zochira, is there anything else?" ”
"This ......" Zochira hesitated for a moment, but finally made up her mind and said, "Master Ferret, this Dark Temple, I guess you have visited almost the same in the past two days. However, I will say that there is one more place that you should definitely not miss, if you will, how about I take you to see it tomorrow? ”
"Oh? It won't be very troublesome," Lin Li asked very considerately when he saw that Zochila seemed to have made up his mind. In fact, in Lin Li's thoughts, he has indeed visited the entire Dark Temple, and the only thing that has not been past may be the place where the Dark Temple collects books. Of course, that kind of place must also be the top priority of the Dark Temple, and Zochira's embarrassment is probably because of this.
"No, it won't," Zochira quickly shook her head, but because of the wide hood, it only felt as if a light wind was blowing.
