Another World's Versatile Crafting Master Chapter 983 - Owner Of The Well of the Sun

Chapter 983: Owner Of The Well of the Sun

Seeing that he couldn’t provide information that would satisfy his master, Garl began to panic a little. After all, he was still thinking about how he could one-up Angelano. Besides, how could a qualified servant be unable to answer his master’s questions? Therefore, after thinking for a moment, he somewhat hesitantly said, “Respected Master, I have also heard some rumors from other demons, but I don’t know if they’re true or not, so…”

“Go ahead.” Lin Li could not blame Garl for anything, because it couldn’t be helped that he had a low status. He was just a watchdog. How could he know anything about his owner? Even if he did, it would still be based on hearsay.

“Yes, rumor has it that the owner of this place already existed when we, Abyssal Demons, arrived.” Garl carefully told Lin Li all the information that he knew. Of course, he had to make up his mind to do it. After all, such information was definitely doubtful since it was obtained from hearsay.

It already existed before the Abyssal Demon arrived? Lin Li immediately heard the problem within it. Putting aside the origin of the mysterious owner of the Well of the Sun, according to Garl’s statement, it seemed likely that the owner was not an Abyssal Demon. If it was not an Abyssal Demon, could it be that it was a High Elf that survived since the Well of the Sun used to be the Sun Shrine of the High Elves?

However, the next thing Garl said was beyond Lin Li’s expectations. “Although we don’t know who the one who spread it was, there are rumors that the owner seems to be a human.”

“A human?”

According to Lin Li’s thoughts, the owner would likely be a High Elf if it wasn’t an Abyssal Demon. However, he never expected that it would be a human. Could it be another unsung human hero from the Dark Age?

However, when Geresco had destroyed the Tree of Eternity back then, the Sun Shrine sunk into the s.p.a.cetime rift, and turned into the present Well of the Sun. During that disaster, even the Sun Shrine was half destroyed, and Lin Li couldn’t imagine that anyone could have survived that disaster. Could it be Geresco who had gone missing? However, the time when Geresco left Anril didn’t tally with the time that the Well of the Sun was formed. Moreover, with Geresco’s strength, he could have already shuttled through the void as he pleased. He wouldn’t have been trapped in this place.

Although Garl said that the owner of the Well of the Sun was probably a human, Lin Li was not happy about it at all. He would never forget how he had obtained the seven pieces of the debris of the stars from the Well of the Sun in the Endless World. In other words, the other party probably had the real debris of the stars, and that was truly strange.

Although he had chatted with Garl for quite a long time, Lin Li did not stop at all. Instead, he continued to walk towards the depths of the endless void. Besides, the debris of the stars, Nothingness, that he held was continuously emitting power that seemed real yet illusory. It shrouded him, and allowed him to resist the attack of the power of Nothingness in the surroundings.

Although there was Nothingness around him, Lin Li had a clear memory of it in his mind, and the direction he was walking in at this time was exactly where the Lord of Nothingness was hiding. After covering a distance of about a few hundred meters, Lin Li finally stopped, and at the same time raised the Void Spear in his hand, swinging it into the Nothingness.

As the Void Spear cut through the s.p.a.ce, a ma.s.sive rift was formed as if a black cloth had been slashed by a sharp blade. The golden rays of light that belonged to the Well of the Sun were also darting out of the rift in the void. As the rift appeared, a fierce roar was also suddenly heard throughout the s.p.a.ce. As the void vibrated rapidly, a pitch-black figure landed in front of Lin Li.

However, the pitch-black figure, which was also the so-called Lord of Nothingness, surprisingly did not attack Lin Li immediately after it appeared. Instead, it knelt in front of Lin Li.

“Great Supreme Monarch, please pardon my rudeness. I was just sleeping, and had no thoughts of disrespecting you.” The Lord of Nothingness was almost kneeling in front of Lin Li.

Lin Li was taken aback by the Lord of Nothingness’s words. What is going on? Since when did I become a supreme monarch? I’m afraid that the only one who could be addressed as the supreme monarch by the Lord of Nothingness is the owner of the Well of the Sun. Did this Lord of Nothingness also recognize the debris of the stars like Garl did, and thus mistook me for the owner of the Well of the Sun?

However, when Lin Li was being stunned, the Lord of Nothingness suddenly reacted, and his body, which was initially crouched in front of Lin Li, suddenly expanded and once again filled the entire s.p.a.ce, filling up the crack that Lin Li formed. Immediately afterwards, the ma.s.sive Power of Nothingness surged towards Lin Li again in a bid to turn Lin Li’s body into nothingness.

If this is a plot, it’s a bit silly!

Although Lin Li was stunned, his reaction was not slow at all. A wave of force suddenly emerged from the debris of the stars in his hands, moving towards the attack that was charging at him. The two waves of the Power of Nothingness collided, but it did not result in any fluctuations at all. The Power of Nothingness seemed to have been immediately swallowed and a.s.similated by the debris of the stars, Nothingness, almost without any resistance.

It wasn’t that the Lord of Nothingness was too weak, but he just happened to be restrained by the debris of the stars, Nothingness. With the power of Nothingness, it was simply much easier for Lin Li to deal with the Lord of Nothingness now as compared to in the beginning. The debris of the stars, Nothingness, had the advantage of being able to create one huge rift after another. The Power of Nothingness that spread throughout the s.p.a.ce was also devoured in large amounts.

Lin Li did not have to speculate to determine the location of the Lord of Nothingness like he did in the Endless World previously. He did not have to rack his brains to think of battle strategies like he did in the Endless World, either. Now, he had finally experienced the feeling of putting the enemy in a position where they did not know what to do with him. The incoming Power of Nothingness was only a supplement for the debris of the stars, and could not harm him in the slightest. The Lord of Nothingness, who was hidden in the void, could only watch as his power got devoured, while his Domain was sliced up.

In just a moment’s time, the Lord of Nothingness and the endless void completely disappeared from this world, and the palace that was hidden in it once again shone with dazzling rays of golden light. On a side note, the magic gears on this floor had long lost their effectiveness, like those in Garl’s place previously. Almost everything had been transformed into nothingness by the Lord of Nothingness.

Those changes might not seem like much to others. After all, they did not understand the power of the Lord of Nothingness, and could not experience the terror he would bring, either. However, Garl who had lived in this world for thousands of years understood Nothingness very well.

Although the Lord of Nothingness could not cast any offensive spells at the enemy unlike other demons, based on his ability to transform everything into Nothingness, he could be in the top ranks among all the Demon Lords in the Well of the Sun. However, the Lord of Nothingness and the Nothingness Domain that he had been managing for thousands of years had already been easily destroyed by Lin Li in just a few moments. Although Garl had already signed a Soul Contract with Lin Li, he still felt a sudden chill.

“Great Master, you’re just as admirable as a deity. Even the sun in the sky of Anril can’t compare to your brilliance. It’s my honor to be able to become your servant…” Seeing that the Lord of Nothingness had been killed, Garl immediately started b.u.t.tering Lin Li up.

“Cut the c.r.a.p and tell them they can come over,” Lin Li ordered Garl harshly while thinking about the scene that took place just now. Why did the Lord of Nothingness mistake me for the owner of the Well of the Sun? Is it purely because of the power of the debris of the stars, Nothingness?

Of course, that was not impossible. After all, the debris of the stars, Nothingness, was too unique, and almost no one would believe that there would be two identical sets of the debris of the stars in this world. If the owner of the Well of the Sun really had seven pieces of the debris of the stars as well, it seemed that it would be normal for the Lord of Nothingness to mistake Lin Li for the owner.

However, at the thought of this, Lin Li had another question in mind. Since the Lord of Nothingness had already identified Lin Li as the owner of the Well of the Sun, it meant that the rumors that Garl had mentioned before were true, and the owner of the Well of the Sun was really a human. However, that also meant that the Lord of Nothingness had most likely met the owner of the Well of the Sun. Otherwise, how could he be so sure that the owner of the Well of the Sun was a human?

Hence, a question that was even more unfathomable to Lin Li appeared. Since he had seen it, why would he still be mistaken?

“Garl, what is the Lord of Nothingness’s status like here? Could he have seen the owner of the Well of the Sun before?” asked Lin Li, who could not figure it out at all. Although Garl was not doing well there, he was at least the Demon Lord of a certain floor. Having lived there for thousands of years, he should more or less know something useful.

Garl had just relayed Lin Li’s instructions to the expedition. After hearing the question, he secretly recalled something, and gloatingly said, “Although the Lord of Nothingness, Darc, is only on the third floor, he definitely has superior strength here. He was only banished to this place by the owner because of something that he had done.”

The problem of the Lord of Nothingness was somewhat similar to Garl. One liked to transform everything into nothingness, and the other liked to swallow everything. They were naturally detested by the owner for being so unscrupulous. They were lucky enough not to have been gotten rid of by the owner.

The only difference between the two was that Garl was not strong enough to occupy the top position, while the Lord of Nothingness had been banished to the lower floors. In that case, it was very likely that Lord of Nothingness should have met the mysterious owner of the Well of the Sun.

Do I have such a common face? Lin Li couldn’t help but remember that many people had mistaken him for the Immortal King in the past as well as recall the Immortal King statue in the Scar of Death that looked a lot like him. Even when he was in Prince Brahere’s mausoleum, Brahere actually called him “Father” a few times.

Is the owner of the Well of the Sun the Immortal King? He has seven pieces of the debris of the stars, and I’m always mistaken for him. Who else could it be other than the Immortal King!? The Well of the Sun was originally moved here by the Immortal King, and in a certain sense, the Immortal King was indeed considered the owner of the Well of the Sun.

At the thought of this, Lin Li couldn’t help but s.h.i.+ver. If he really met the Immortal King, he would be in big trouble.

The Immortal King was a powerful existence that was truly the closest to a G.o.d in Anril. In the past, Lin Li might have felt that this claim was a bit exaggerated, but after experiencing everything that he had in the previous realms, such a statement was simply modest in his opinion.

Are mortals capable of creating worlds and creating life!? That method of creation was probably something that even an ordinary G.o.d might not be able to master. It was a power that only a truly dominant G.o.d of creation could possess. Although Lin Li had already stepped into the Sanctuary-realm, he was still far inferior to the Immortal King. Even if the three arbitrators of the Supreme Council were to join forces, they might not be a match for the Immortal King.

However, after Lin Li thought about it carefully, he felt that it did not seem possible. If the owner of the Well of the Sun was the Immortal King, would Osric still be able to create such trouble in the Sky Castle? Or could it be that the owner was the Immortal King, but had already left this place long ago?

At this moment, the expedition team, which had been waiting outside for a long time, also quickly arranged themselves neatly in a single file and entered after receiving Lin Li’s orders.

When Archbishop Martin and Donald saw the stern expression on Lin Li’s face, they immediately panicked a little before hurriedly going forward to ask, “Master Felic, did you encounter any problems?”

It was no wonder that the two of them were that nervous. In their opinion, it would definitely take a huge problem to make a Sanctuary powerhouse vexed.

Of course, Lin Li wouldn’t tell them that he suspected that they might encounter the Immortal King here. Besides, there was no evidence yet. Even if there was, he could not just say it, either. Once he did, even Archbishop Martin and Donald would probably collapse immediately, what more the ordinary members of the team. Not everyone had the courage to face the Immortal King.

Of course, that was just a conjecture. Lin Li could not be certain that they would definitely encounter the Lord of Nothingness. Hence, he simply shook his head, and said, “Nothing, I was just thinking about some of the methods that the Lord of Nothingness used to apply some Laws.”

To be honest, his explanation wasn’t convincing, but Archbishop Martin and Donald dared not interrogate Lin Li even if they had some doubts. They had no choice but to accept it. Not only did they accept it, they would have to smile and compliment Lin Li serviently by saying that he was hardworking, and that it was no wonder he had made such accomplishments.
