Chapter 860 -527: The Temple of Fantasy and Knowledge God Azus_2
This was the main reason Lis was heavily injured; the wounds sustained in the battle with Andrew weren’t as severe.
Looking back now, the fight with Andrew was indeed quite risky.
Lis felt the temperature of the desert beneath him slowly dissipating, while he tried to recover his physical state and, at the same time, reviewed the previous battle in his mind.
Undoubtedly, the biggest reason Lis could gain such an advantage was Andrew’s carelessness.
Honestly, in a situation where Andrew didn’t understand Lis’s abilities and was repeatedly hit up close, any other Golden Mage would have died horribly.
But for Andrew, he only suffered minor injuries.
This being the weakest Legendary Mage, if it were a Legendary Warrior or Legendary Assassin, Lis might not have been able to achieve this.
Based on the information reconnoitered from the previous battle with Andrew, Lis now roughly had an estimation of the strength of the Legendary Rank.
For Bronze Rank Professionals, upgrading a level improves one point in six attributes.
Once it reaches Silver Rank, the enhancement increases to three points, while also compensating for the attributes previously registered in the birth records.
Golden Rank Professionals receive a six-point attribute enhancement per level.
Since Lis’s agility and strength attributes were stronger than Andrew’s, he could scout out Andrew’s attributes.
Andrew, having just become a Legendary Mage not long ago, lacked fighting experience, so his strength and agility attributes didn’t have many enhancements from specialties and abilities.
This meant that Andrew’s increase in strength and agility attributes was almost entirely due to level advancements.
By comparison, Lis estimated that after breaking through the Legendary Rank and achieving a life transcendence, each level would bring about a 20-point enhancement in six attributes.
That’s really outrageous!
Compared to the enhancement in Golden Rank, it’s almost a threefold difference!
Besides, Legendary Professionals also have enhancements related to their Legendary Rank and Legendary Domain, explaining the huge disparity between Legendary and Golden Rank Professionals.
That also explained why Andrew was so arrogant when facing Lis, harboring a tutoring attitude.
By the time he realized something was wrong, the Elf Sage opposite him was indeed a “freak”, but it was already too late.
However, Lis did not have any concern or fear.
Differing from the confused state when he first reincarnated into the Gaia World, Lis had a clear understanding of his abilities.
How many Golden Rank Professionals throughout history could engage in battle with a Legend?
In his previous life, so many Golden Rank players couldn’t survive the aftermath of battles of those powerful Legends during a real world war, let alone join the Divine Level battlefield.
No matter what, now Lis already held the ticket to the Legend in his hands.
The Legendary Rank that Andrew was at might seem an unreachable goal for ordinary people, but it was nothing serious for Lis.
Though Lis obtained many benefits from Andrew, he did not like this passive feeling.
Accidents often come unexpectedly; no amount of post-event gains can offset the risk Lis took.
If he could, Lis preferred following plans step by step, which would be much safer.
After all, for Lis, the future path forward was already clear, and the important thing was to climb higher step by step.
It’s decided! When he breaks through the Legend Rank, the first thing Lis will do is go to Archibald Kingdom to get revenge on Andrew.
Lis is confident that he can break through to Legend within the next few years, which is quite a short period for the already Legendary Mage Andrew, so his strength won’t have significant advancement.
Considering that Lis could suppress Andrew for a period even when he’s at Golden Rank, once he becomes a Legend, beating Andrew will be even easier.
Andrew probably would not expect that, even though he foresaw Lis’s potential to become a Legend, it wouldn’t happen so fast.
Back then, he was stuck at this threshold for decades.
Lis should first focus on how to break through to Legend!
Slowly standing up from the dune, Lis looked out into the distance.
In his view was the endless desert blending with the horizon, and the gradually darkening blue-purple twilight.
By the way, where was this place?
Lis patted his body, shaking off the sand.
Looking at the situation, it appeared to be in the Endless Desert on the western part of Fanor Continent?
Lis’s guess wasn’t unfounded.
Desert terrain on Fanor Continent is quite rare, apart from the region west of Jianuo Mountain Range, other places on the continent almost have no desert.
Due to the blockade of Jianuo Mountain Range, coupled with the presence of the Dwarf Kingdom, the communication between the Western Desert and Fanor Continent is quite difficult; traveling to other regions of Fanor Continent is more convenient by taking merchant ships and crossing the ocean.
There are not many intelligent races living in the Endless Desert, especially humans; most are concentrated in coastal areas.
Although this desert is quite barren, it doesn’t mean other creatures don’t exist.
Creatures have strong adaptability; in the seemingly lifeless desert, when the sun sets and the heat dissipates, tenacious beings emerge to seek food.
At least in Lis’s ears, he could already faintly hear the rustling sounds from under the sand.
This desert doesn’t have an exclusive name; intelligent beings and humans living here each have different names for the area, most travelers who come here call it Endless Desert.
This place once seemed to be a fertile land, but some unknown incident happened long ago, turning the fertile land into this desert.
Likewise, due to the desert’s protection, there are many unknown ruins and treasures hidden beneath it, proof of the former kingdoms and extraordinary organizations.
However, finding ruins in this desert is like finding a needle in a haystack; due to the inherent fear of the desert, rarely any adventurers come here looking for treasures.
Yet, sometimes ruins emerge due to various accidents.
For example, the temple of the Fantasy and Knowledge God Azus buried deeply under the desert.
This place is one of Lis’s goals; he plans to return to Danerluo Port after completing his affairs in Gorden Kingdom, then head to the Western Desert to search for this temple.
Version 2.0 “All-out War” has already progressed mostly, the time left for Lis is limited.
When version 3.0 “Otherworld Exploration” starts, the Phillips Crystal will descend from the void surrounding Gaia World, one of which will land near Danerluo Port.
Then, due to the powerful spatial force of the Phillips Crystal, surrounding areas will randomly open space passages leading to otherworlds around Gaia World.
At that time, Lis will be very busy and must seize the first opportunity.
This was the reason Lis spent so much effort and time acquiring the territory of Danerluo Port.
Before that, Lis must quickly enhance his strength, ideally break through to Legend.
By then, he will be confident in securing this opportunity.
It’s important to know that there will be many people coveting the space passages around the Phillips Crystal, as it almost represents the best way to explore new territories and acquire more resources and wealth.
If the space passage leads to an undeveloped, resource-rich otherworld, it will be the greatest treasure.
Not only the Human Kingdom, but even the Church of the Gods will be tempted to join in.
If Lis has greater strength, he could even earn Gold Coins from adventurers or charge a passage fee to the Church of the Gods.
The temple of the Fantasy and Knowledge God Azus records all divine arts collected by the god Azus.
This is also Lis’s best chance to acquire divine arts skills and gain the specialty of a Priest Basic Profession!
Lis adjusted his status as he transitioned time, early to determine his location.
Lis looked around and chose a direction to walk aimlessly.
Without the ability to use spells, he could only rely on his legs to find direction.
