Chapter 786 - Messenger (1/2)

Lars Watson looked around as he walked into the Flame Demon Fort, disbelief flickering in his eyes.

'Damn, what happened here? Did the entire Merlin Family eat something wrong?

'Hey, isn't that Geru Merlin? That guy was a 9th Rank High Mage last month, how come he's a 1st Rank Archmage now?

'That guy had been stuck at the High Mage realm for twenty years, hadn't he? How did he advance?

'And it's not just him, there are a few others that weren't as strong a month ago. How come they've advanced now?'

Doubt flashed in Lars Watson's eyes, but he still felt disdainful. The Flame Demon Fort mostly had Great Mages. There weren't many High Mages, and the Archmages had fallen... So how could that Geru advance to the Archmage realm?

It wasn't as if they were all weak, but besides Mafa Merlin and his entourage, the entire Merlin Family here looked as if it would easily collapse. 'Their Commander, Thorne Watson, is only a 5th Rank Sword Saint... I really don't know what the Merlin Family is thinking. They are so weak, yet they think of sharing the benefits of the Raging Flame Plane...

'Truly a pile of trash, except Sir Mafa Merlin, of course. Sir Green was a 6th Rank Archmage from the Ancestral Land, but he was actually crippled by Mafa Merlin, and Sir Zeuss didn't even help Sir Green out.

'After returning, the entire fort could hear Sir Zeuss scolding Sir Green, and people said that he was so angry that just a spurt of his saliva was enough to wash over Green's face.

'That huge warship had been driven back here by Sir Mafa. I heard that this warship annihilated all the Raging Flame Beastman of the Fireblade Tribe in a few minutes… truly terrifying.

'Sir Green was incredibly stupid. Sir Zeuss repeatedly warned me before leaving that the Tribal Chief of the Fireblade Tribe, Hoppet, was personally killed by Mafa Merlin, and he was a Peak 8th Rank Arch-Warlock.

'And reportedly, Mafa Merlin didn't have an especially good relationship with the Merlin Family upon his return. After coming to the Raging Flame Plane, the people there refused to comply with him.

'Truly a bunch of idiots…'

Lars Watson followed the guide in front of him and suddenly noticed a sleeping Beastman sprawled on his back atop a large tent, snoring loudly. His body was emitting a dangerous aura.

'Isn't that Sir Mafa's follower, Sir Xiuban? Truly powerful. It was said that he has followed Mafa Merlin for more than a year and, from a stupid Beastman, became a 4th Rank Sword Saint. But his aura feels stronger than a 5th Rank Sword Saint.

'It was also said that a frightening Frost Dragon was also the follower of Sir Mafa.

'Unfortunately, I'm from the Watson Family, so Sir Mafa would definitely look down on me, or else I would have thickened my face to become one of his followers.'

”You can wait here, Sir Mafa is working on an important alchemy experiment, wait until he comes out.”

A voice interrupted Lars' delusion. Lars turned and arrogantly nodded.

Disdain flashed in his eyes as he watched the back of that person. Besides Sir Mafa, there wasn't a single Merlin that could be looked up to.

'Hmpf, the Merlin Family is filled with cowards and idiots. Seeing Sir Mafa's strength, they could only thicken their faces and pull him back into the family.'

Lars sat in the empty reception room, not worried at all. It was said that Mafa Merlin was also a formidable Master Alchemist that might have already advanced to the Artisan realm. Waiting on an Artisan wasn't an issue. Many people would actually hope for such an opportunity without ever receiving one.

After a dozen minutes, Lin Yun looked at the solution that kept changing in his beaker and nodded with satisfaction.

'Hmm, this still needs another half an hour before the next step. Let's meet with the visitor from the Watson Family.'

Lin Yun noticed his messy hair and filthy clothing, but he didn't care. Time was pressing, and he didn't have time to waste. After quickly tidying himself, he walked towards the reception room.

After pushing open the door, he immediately heard a shout. ”Hmpf, who let you come in?”

Lars was coldly looking at this youth with a ruffled appearance. 'His clothes are filthy and his hair is a mess, he looks like he walked into the wrong room. He even entered without knocking, truly boorish of him.

'The people of the Merlin Family's headquarters are becoming more and more embarrassing. No wonder they are all a bunch of trash. In this Flame Demon Fort, only someone like Sir Mafa can be considered a powerhouse.'

A trace of amazement flashed on Lin Yun's face, and he truly thought he had gone the wrong way for a moment. He even checked, but this was really the reception room.

Lars sneered as he looked at Lin Yun.

”You are really uneducated. You don't even know how to knock after opening a door! I am the messenger of the Watson Family and Sir Mafa Merlin's guest, I have an important matter to discuss with Sir Mafa, yet you are so bold as to come in like that. Is the Merlin Family that lawless?”

Seeing Lin Yun's stunned appearance, Lars immediately looked down on him. 'So stupid, you don't even know how to apologize and leave? Forget it, for the sake of Sir Mafa Merlin, I won't bother to bicker with that idiot.
