Chapter 231 - This Is a Trap! (1/2)

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.”
