From Skeleton Soldiers to King of the Undead - Chapter 223
c220 On the importance of charisma
[The war lord came to the small world deep in the ruins and discovered the ancient and secret elemental plane]
[Quest: Elemental Contract]
[Note: Use spells to contract powerful elemental spirits. Difficulty: B, Reward: Experience points and free points are awarded based on the strength of the contract target]
An ancient and hidden plane?
I have never seen anything like it in Orario and the Labyrinth…
“Next!”
Just as Roja was browsing the tasks in front of him, another mage stepped onto the altar.
He was one level stronger than the previous one. He threw his magic power into the elemental gate in the same way, but did not get a response after a minute.
“Time is up.”
After the person presiding over the ceremony announced the end, he sighed heavily and walked away very frustrated.
Whether the elemental spirit can be contracted and the strength of the contract target have an impact on the mage’s own strength, but there is no absolute relationship.
It depends more on a certain “talent” of the individual, which is like an innate characteristic.
“oh……”
At this moment, there was a low exclamation from the crowd.
That was the third mage to take the stage. He had an ordinary appearance and a somewhat dull expression.
But after he sent his magic power to the sky, a huge ice peacock flew down from the gate of the elements, its crystal feathers flashing with brilliant colorful light.
As it slowly descended, large amounts of water mist and snowflakes drifted down from the sky, reflecting an illusory rainbow in the sunlight.
“good.”
Even the clergy who presided over the ceremony praised the male mage, not to mention the envious looks in the eyes of the mages in the audience.
Advanced elemental spirits.
Roja evaluated the magic power of the peacock. It was probably the same as the male mage, and it was at the level of a senior mage.
If the two can really work together to cast ice attribute spells, it will be more than one plus one equals two, and they should be able to sweep the same level.
At this time, in the gate of elements, you can vaguely see the figures of many spiritual bodies, big ones like giant dragons, small ones like sparrows, with different attributes, some strong and some weak.
While this ceremony was going on, those unique beings were also watching the mages, seemingly making a selection.
The powerful elemental spirit allows the Grand Mage to transcend levels and release forbidden spells?
Roja thought of Saint Malphite’s forbidden spell “Calling the Mountains”.
It is not an exaggeration to say that it will destroy the world. If it is released outside the ruins and mazes, it will be a real catastrophe that can kill countless living beings.
The difficulty of the mission is only B, so you should be able to contract one at a minimum, right?
Thinking of this, Roja left the crowd in front of him and walked forward.
The people who were pushed away by the magic looked at Roja in confusion, surprised by the weird dress, but a faint sense of oppression made them choose to shut up.
In full view of everyone, Roja walked to the altar.
The cleric said in a deep voice: “Are you the next mage on the list? Why didn’t you come wearing mage robes? Where is your wand?”
Many people turned around and noticed Roja walking towards the altar.
Who is this weirdo? Most people have this kind of doubt subconsciously.
“The next person is me! Not him…”
Lifting into the air was prohibited during the ceremony. A short and fat young mage shouted anxiously, trying to squeeze out of the crowded crowd.
Um?
The cleric looked down at the list in his hand in confusion and asked sternly: “What is your name and which college you are from…”
At this time, Roja had already stepped up the last step and reached the top of the altar.
“I’m not the mage here.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a cold breath emanated from him.
Gudong——!
The next moment, the cleric’s eyes widened in fear and his whole body stiffened.
For a moment, he felt that his heartbeat had stopped, and the scenery in front of him seemed to have lost its color, leaving only black and white.
——Am I going to be killed?
These were the thoughts that emerged in the minds of several clergymen at the altar at the same time after seeing what seemed like a scene in the afterlife…
“I won’t kill you.”
Roja responded to their fears: “Just borrowing the altar.”
The leading cleric was the strongest and had reached level five. He was the first to recover from the death hallucination. He said with some fear:
“Sir…where are you from?”
“Coming from outside.” Roja responded casually and came to the center of the altar.
That kind of contract spell is not complicated. He has already mastered the spell through mind reading, so it should be able to have some effect.
“From outside? Outside the small world?!”
“Is someone from the outside coming in? The devil’s prophecy…”
There were many mages and warriors with extremely high hearing in the crowd, and they were all shocked when they heard Roja’s words.
Everyone immediately thought of the doomsday legend passed down from ancient times. Everyone knew what it meant for outsiders to appear here.
“Coming from outside…are you an adventurer from Orario?!”
The leading clergyman was startled and couldn’t help but step back.
The expression under his mask changed again and again, and he hurriedly waved his hand to his subordinates, signaling them to report to the Parliament and the Pope as soon as possible.
He himself did not leave, but retreated to the edge of the altar, shouting to the noisy crowd below: “Quiet, no one is allowed to leave!”
…
Roja knew exactly what these people were thinking, but there was no need to pay attention to it.
Under the gaze of everyone, he stretched out a hand towards the elemental door above his head, preparing to channel his undead power into it.
To him, the power of the undead is equivalent to the magic power of other mages. Although it is exclusive of the magic power of the Holy Light system, it does not exclude other magic elements.
The power of the undead represents death, but the elements of fire, earth, water, etc. do not mean life.
“boom!”
The light black air wave formed a wind column, which was released from Roja’s hand and poured into the dazzling colorful gate in the sky.
“Rumble…”
With his endless magic power delivery,
The Elemental Gate, which was originally only about ten meters in diameter, suddenly began to expand!
Fifty meters, one hundred meters, two hundred meters…
Under the horrified eyes of everyone below, the Gate of Elements finally turned into a huge hole of 500 meters, covering most of the square area!
This door is about to burst.
Sensing signs of instability at the hole in the sky, Roja stopped in time.
“Jiji!”
A few seconds later, a silver “sparrow” appeared from the hole. Although it was not large, its body was flashing with silver arcs, and it looked very extraordinary.
“Advanced elemental spirit!” A mage in the crowd showed longing eyes.
It shouldn’t be…
Roja felt that this sparrow with level 3 magic power was really weak.
Um?
Suddenly, an eagle with wind element rushed out of the hole, grabbed the sparrow and swallowed it in one bite.
After it ate the sparrow, it swooped down towards Roja below, obviously wanting to sign a contract with him.
Someone exclaimed: “It is a wind spirit with powerful magic power and extremely offensive power! It is suitable for casting wind attack spells…”
The magic power is about level five, which is not satisfactory…
Just when Roja was about to use contract magic to establish contact with the falcon,
“Roar——!” A giant dragon whose whole body was burning with flames poked its head out of the hole and turned the falcon into nothingness with one breath.
“Smaug the Fire Dragon!”
This famous flame spirit turned to look at Roja and let out a friendly chirp.
However, behind it, a giant fish monster shaped like a “Kun” slowly opened its abyssal mouth…
