Chapter 231 - This Is a Trap!



Chapter 231 This Is a Trap!

Outside the library of Ulambus, several archmages personally brought the seven Dragon Balls to the center of the square. In the periphery of the square, there were already hundreds of gremlins and iron golems and dozens of djinns floating. These djinns were all blue, their bald heads had braids, and their muscles were well-developed. However, they did not have lower bodies because their lower bodies were just a cloud of mist.

These djinns were actually air elementals from the Elemental World. After the mages summoned them, they sealed them in magic lamps to serve as slaves.

Having mastered magic and spells, mages had always been arrogant and haughty Perhaps in their eyes, they could enslave any lower-level creature…

After placing the seven Dragon Balls on the ground, the archmages suddenly looked at each other, speechless.

After a while, someone finally asked, “Ahem! Okay, who knows the incantation to summon?”

“I don’t know!”

“I don’t either!”

“Damn it, doesn’t anyone know?!”

The mages were dumbfounded. Only then did they realize that no one present knew the so-called incantation.

“What’s going on?” someone asked angrily. “Didn’t you ask about the summoning incantation of these Dragon Balls when you sent the djinns to collect them?!”

“How can you blame us? Aren’t you the same?!” another mage retorted angrily. “Who said that the Dragon Balls have a summoning incantation?” someone asked. “Where did this legend come from in the first place? Can’t we just trace it back to the origin and ask?”

“It’s useless!” A mage sighed. “I remember that at first, it seemed to be a passing traveler that heard it from a Sylanna’s Ancient. According to the Sylanna’s Ancient, the incantation seems to be lost…”

When Roy created the Dragon Balls, he had only set them as a positioning signal, and they could not summon anything at all. So when he mentioned it to the Sylanna’s Ancient, he could only vaguely say that it was lost. It did not matter if he said that, but now, he had caused the mages of Ulambus to suffer.

One of the mages was unwilling to fail and ordered, “There’s no other way. Search! Bring out all the books and documents related to ancient times. Find if there are any incantations that can be used!”

That’s right. They had spent quite a lot of effort to collect these Dragon Balls. Thanks to the fact that they had obtained the Dragon Balls earlier, they had gathered them first. If they simply gave up halfway because they did not have an incantation, they would be laughed at to death if word got out. At that time, there would probably be many people wanting to take these Dragon Balls from their hands…

Therefore, the entire academy became busy. A large number of djinns flew in and out, carrying piles of parchment scrolls and books with yellowed pages, while the archmages just laid on the square and began searching for possible incantations.

It had to be said that the mages did indeed have this confidence because the Academy cities of Bracada could be said to have collected most of the wisdom and knowledge on the entire continent. If you wanted to borrow all kinds of ancient books and texts, it was absolutely right to ask the mages. This was because the mages of the Academy also possessed a very unique ability, ‘Arcane Omniscience’!

Of course, this was an ability that only high-level archmages knew how to use. This ‘Arcane Omniscience’ allowed them to understand some lost magic. They could obtain any magic that had appeared in history through this ability.

In addition, there were some hermits in this world, especially the seers of the Blind Brothers. They were a group that knew how to prophesize. If the mages really could not find something that worked, they could even seek help from these seers.

Therefore, they believed that there was no secret in this world that they could not understand…

These archmages were now targeting some recorded incantations, but they did not know the specific uses.

“Do you think it’s this sentence… The blood of pure silver, the heart of black iron, sinners who are disrespectful to the gods? Struggle in this endless labyrinth, know thy own powerlessness!”

“… No reaction, not this sentence!”

“Ah! It may be this sentence: Return with piousness and heroic souls. Come, light and shadow, protect the glory of the world!” “Idiot! That’s the guardian angel summoning incantation. What are you looking for?”

“I am the one who connects to the path of the stars. Thou, respond to my summons and cross the gate. Open the Gate of the Giant Crab! Cancer!”

“There’s still no reaction. Find more!”

“What about this? O fragment of the Lord of Nightmares, O freezing black blade of nothingness loosed from the bindings of the world, be my power, my self, and let us together walk the path of destruction, shattering even the very souls of the gods.”

“… Bastard, do you want to summon demons?”

“Key which hides the powers of the dark, reveal your true form before me. I, Sakura Kinomoto, command you under our contract. Release!”

“Tyrant’s Eye, activate! Release the seal! Be destroyed, real! Blow up, synapses! Banishment This World!”

“Balalal energy, waah, black magic transformation!”

“Open Sesame!”

“Damn it, where did you find these messy incantations?!” One of the mages could no longer hold it in and smashed his staff on the head of another mage. The next second, a group of mages began fighting… The djinns at the side looked at each other and then continued to observe expressionlessly with their arms crossed. A group of mages engaging in research often fought for no reason over a small argument. The djinns were already used to it. It was a good thing for the other mages to attack directly because with their pitiful strength, they would not be able to hurt each other. Instead, it would be bad if they used magic to fight.

After fighting for two minutes, the mages were exhausted. They then separated while panting, picked up the ancient texts, and began to try again. At this moment, one of the mages found an incantation from somewhere and read, “With the external power of the King of Shadows who ruled the world, turn this object into a supreme treasure. Pray for a bountiful harvest, sing holy praises, bestow upon me, leave my name in history. With my magic power, I turn it into mud and contaminate it with my concept. I will spread it wildly and completely rewrite the legitimate lies…”

When this inexplicable incantation was recited, everyone did not pay much attention at first. But unexpectedly, with the gradually chanting of this incantation, the positions of the Dragon Balls placed on the square changed!

A faint black dot appeared in midair where the Dragon Balls were. This black dot quickly expanded to the size of a fist, then to the size of a basin, and the black dot also turned into a circular black vortex.

“This… This is!” A mage opened his mouth in surprise and exclaimed, “It’s a spatial gate! The incantation is working!”

After he shouted, the other mages reacted. Their eyes were full of fanaticism as they screamed at the mage chanting, “Continue! Don’t stop! Don’t stop!”

The mage was equally energetic, so he chanted even louder.

In fact, if it were any other normal person, they would have been wary of such a strange incantation that mentioned the King of Shadows and contamination. However, the mages did not care too much. After the spatial gate opened, whether it was a good or evil creature, the mages did not mind at all. They were eager for something unknown to appear so that they could have more motivation to explore.

Sometimes, mages were no different from mad scientists…

However, as the spatial gate continued to expand, the aura coming from the other side of the gate made the mages feel that something was wrong! “What’s going on? A strong smell of… sulfur…”

“I smell it too. There seems to be a flame aura…”

The mages’ faces changed as they suddenly thought of something. They panicked and screamed, “Stop! Stop! This smell is the smell of demons!”

The mages welcomed all unknown creatures, but the problem was that the aura and smell coming from the other side made them realize that the place connected to the spatial gate was most likely similar to Sheogh, where the demons were… No, it was probably even more terrifying than Sheogh because even if the demons of Sheogh teleported out, there would not be such a strong smell of sulfur and flames on the other side of the gate!

One of the mages reacted quickly and rushed over to press the chanting mage to the ground, stopping his recitation in time. However, even though the chanting had stopped, the spatial gate was still expanding.

Because this spatial gate was not opened by the incantation of the mage…

“Oh no, we can’t stop it !” the mages exclaimed. Then they quickly shouted at the djinns beside them, “Ring the alarm! Be on guard against the demon attack!”

So, in just a few seconds, as the alarm bell in the city rang, all of Ulambus fell into chaos!

A large number of gremlins began to gather. The iron golem troops also took heavy steps in unison as they converged at the square. Above the bell tower of the city, rubble splattered, and statue-like stone gargoyles awakened. They flapped their wings and flew into the sky. The nagas drew their weapons from their waists, waved their six arms, and twisted the lower half of their snake bodies as they rushed over…

The entire city was alarmed, but it had to be said that despite the chaos, the troops gathered very quickly. This was because the mages in the city often caused trouble due to various magic experiments, and the city guards had long gotten used to emergency situations…

“We… We were deceived!” a sorcerer muttered as he stared at the expanding spatial gate. “This is a trap! A trap by demons!”

“The only thing we can pray for now is that those who come out of the spatial gate are not powerful demons…” another mage said dejectedly.

The expansion of the spatial gate finally stopped, and the huge black vortex floated in the air above the square. Under the gazes of countless people, a demon claw suddenly appeared from the darkness, grabbed the edge of the spatial gate, and then a tall four-winged demon appeared…
