Another World’s Versatile Crafting Master - Chapter 1218

Chapter 1218: Tension

The Giant Shark Clan was not entirely trying to show off their power by kicking up such a big fuss, though it was one of the reasons. Rather, they just wanted to ensure the safety of the prince, Grina. The Giant Shark Clan managed to rise to their current position and status entirely because of their combat power, and it wouldn’t be wrong to say that they had enemies everywhere. If someone knew that the prince of the Giant Shark Clan ended up alone, they might launch an assault against the Giant Shark Clan, especially since the Gilded Kingdom was so far away from the turf of the Giant Shark Clan. If there was a mishap, they wouldn’t be able to receive aid in time.

“Hurry up and get your president to come out! How dare he let our prince wait for such a long time? Does he really think he’s a big shot?” said one of the guards beside Grina. Although he was just a guard, he was nonetheless snobby and arrogant, completely disregarding the people of the Tower of Dusk.

At this juncture, Dorick walked out, and said, “I’m sorry, but our president doesn’t have time to see you!”

“What?!” The people of the Giant Shark Clan were all stunned, not daring to believe what they had just heard. Grina was the prince of the Giant Shark Clan whom even King Bradlor of the Gilded Kingdom had to treat with great respect when summoned by Grina. Yet, the president of the Tower of Dusk, which was just a small force of the Breezy Plains, actually refused to meet Grina!

After recovering from the shock and processing what the other party said, Grina flew into a rage and even began to tremble. As the prince of the Giant Shark Clan, he had never suffered such mistreatment before. It was simply a huge insult to him! He came here only with the intention of buying some seahorse slaves, and he also felt that the Tower of Dusk, which was just a small force, would never turn him down. However, he didn’t expect that he wouldn’t get a chance to meet Lin Li at all.

“President Felic has really piqued my curiosity further. I will see who he really is. How dare he disrespect the Giant Shark Clan like that?!” Grina couldn’t contain his anger any longer, and after saying those words through clenched teeth, he signaled for his subordinates to charge into the embassy.

Grina had four Sanctuary powerhouses with him. In his opinion, the Tower of Dusk was just like a nobody. If it were the palace of the other six major Sea Clans or the embassy of a human kingdom, he might still have some concerns. However, he felt that the Tower of Dusk was just a minor force from the Breezy Plains that they could easily barge into.

However, when the people of the Giant Shark Clan were about to attack, Norfeller, who was standing in front of the embassy, suddenly disappeared without a trace. Afterwards, the entire space was shrouded in a faint layer of sanguine fog, while the people of the Giant Shark Clan unanimously felt that they were being watched closely by something with a killing intent.

At this moment, even the Four Divine Generals of the Giant Shark Clan who were at the Sanctuary-realm couldn’t help but tense up and feel a little scared. They even felt that they would face a fatal blow if they took another step forward. Even a Sanctuary powerhouse wouldn’t be spared from what was awaiting them.

They never thought that the Tower of Dusk actually had a Sanctuary-level Assassin. Very few Assassins could reach the Sanctuary-realm, but those who could would definitely be terrifying, nightmarish existences. Assassins who had reached the Sanctuary-realm had the ability to fuse themselves with the World Laws, and even fellow Sanctuary-level Assassins would not be able to detect their presence easily. They could be considered impossible to defend against.

In particular, a more terrifying thing was that Norfeller, the Sanctuary-level Assassin, was also a Sanctuary-level vampire, the likes of whom Grina had never seen before. Unlike ordinary Assassins, Norfeller was a vampire who was a master of Dark Magic. The combination of Dark Magic and an assassin would be a great threat to almost any kind of profession, which was the reason that people often said that vampires were natural-born Assassins.

With Norfeller’s action, the people of Giant Shark Clan suddenly seemed to have frozen in place, while the Four Divine Generals immediately protected Grina anxiously. They knew that even they might not be able to avoid the assassination of a Sanctuary-level vampire, let alone Grina, who was only at the peak of the Legendary-level.

“Anyone who dares to take a step closer will die!” An ethereal and cold voice that was full of a killing intent came out of the void.

Norfeller was just giving the people of the Giant Shark Clan a warning now, so they could sense the intense killing. However, once he attacked, even a Sanctuary powerhouse wouldn’t be able to sense the killing intent at all.

However, Grina would never be able to tolerate such a situation. He pushed away the Divine General who was standing in front of him, and looked at the members of the Tower of Dusk. “Why? Do you want to attack us? You must not want to leave the Endless Ocean in one piece!”

Grina was not scaring them. Although the Giant Shark Clan could not be considered the ruler of the Endless Ocean now, no one would doubt their ability to dominate given their current power. For a force that made a living on sea, offending the Giant Shark Clan on the Endless Ocean would be tantamount to digging their own grave.

However, in the face of Grina’s threat, the people of the Tower of Dusk did not react much, as if they weren’t aware of the Giant Shark Clan’s existence. Of course, apart from Connoris and the others, the mages of the Tower of Dusk really didn’t know much about the Giant Shark Clan.

Besides, the mages of the Tower of Dusk had always been very confident in their president, especially since they could make it back from Cursed Island under Lin Li’s leadership. Having witnessed with their very own eyes how capable and formidable their president was, they definitely wouldn’t take Grina’s threat seriously.

Connoris and others were even more nonchalant. Lin Li was the only one they respected and the only person whose orders they would obey. They did everything he told them to without considering the consequences at all. Besides, they knew Lin Li’s strength even better than the others, and were also aware of the trump cards that he had. Although the Giant Shark Clan had four Sanctuary powerhouses here, they were confident of defeating them if they really got into a fight.

However, as tension arose, and they were about to get into an intense fight anytime soon, Elder Zumar and his apprentice, Forcus, happened to arrive in time.

Elder Zumar and Forcus came over this time to get in touch with Lin Li. After all, they had to rely on Lin Li to carry out the resurrection plan of the Founding Saint of the Illuminati. However, when he saw what was going on, Elder Zumar could not help but cry out in his heart, regretting his decision to come because he had arrived at the wrong time.

This is such a disadvantage! Elder Zumar was extremely frustrated, but since he had unfortunately encountered such a matter, he couldn’t really act like he didn’t see anything, especially since Lin Li was still of great use to the Illuminati now. If they got into a conflict, the Illuminati wouldn’t be able to handle the resurrection on their own.

Thinking about the trade-offs, Elder Zumar was extremely conflicted. He then exclaimed, “Please don’t be impulsive, let’s talk properly!” While saying that, he walked towards the spot in between the two parties together with his disciple, Forcus.

However, as soon as he did, Elder Zumar couldn’t help but shudder as he could vaguely sense an ethereal killing intent sweeping past his body. Back on Cursed Island, he had watched Norfeller, the vampire of the Tower of Dusk, ascend to the Sanctuary-realm. Hence, he immediately figured out why the Giant Shark Clan would be that nervous. No one would be able to stay calm if they were targeted by an Assassin who was at the Sanctuary-realm.

What made Elder Zumar feel particularly troubled was the fact that the leader of the Giant Shark Clan was Grina, the prince of the Giant Shark Clan. Having been developing on the Endless Ocean for so many years, the Illuminati inevitably had to deal with the Sea Clans. Hence, Elder Zumar was rather familiar with Grina.

The people of the Giant Shark Clan had always been extremely haughty and arrogant. After all, everyone knew how powerful the Giant Shark Clan was, and Grina, the prince of the Giant Shark Clan, was even more conceited. Now that Grina was being disregarded by the assertive President Felic of the Tower of Dusk who wouldn’t tolerate disrespect, it was difficult for Elder Zumar to persuade any of them.

Elder Zumar’s appearance eased up some of the tension at the scene, but the attitude of both parties remained largely the same. If they had been pretending, one of the parties would likely have used this opportunity to give themselves an out, but clearly neither of them was.

Elder Zumar stood in the middle between the two sides, feeling the fury of one party and the cold killing intent of the other. He really wanted to just stay out of it and leave, but for the sake of the interests of the Illuminati, he had no choice but to get involved. Thus, he chuckled bitterly, and said, “Prince Grina and my friends from the Tower of Dusk, please simmer down. We can always talk things over calmly!”

Although Elder Zumar had intervened in time, he still hadn’t figured out how the Tower of Dusk and the Giant Shark Clan got involved with each other. He wouldn’t be surprised if it was someone from the Gilded Kingdom that was confronting the Tower of Dusk, but it was Grina of the Giant Shark Clan who had just come to the Gilded Kingdom!

Although Elder Zumar was a prestigious figure of the Gilded Kingdom, he was far inferior compared to the prince of the Giant Shark Clan. However, no matter what, Elder Zumar was still backed by the Illuminati, after all. Grina could disregard Elder Zumar, but not the Illuminati. Hence, Grina got a grip on his anger, and humphed coldly. “Zumar, this matter has nothing to do with you. If I don’t teach the person who had the guts to offend me a hard lesson, he won’t learn that there are some people in the Endless Ocean that he cannot afford to mess with.”

Grina did not give Elder Zumar a chance to make peace, and instead made his decision to go against the Tower of Dusk clear. Thus, Elder Zumar couldn’t say what he had prepared to, and had no choice but to turn to the Tower of Dusk. He said, “My dear friends of the Tower of Dusk, can anyone tell me what is going on here?”
