Chapter 91: How are acquaintances?
Merry Winterwind and Naloras Sunstrider were at Violet Castle again, but this time, they were invited.
"Lord Antonidas, have you made any new discoveries?" As soon as he entered, Naloras asked impatiently.
"Yes!" Archmage Antonidas nodded, gesturing to the golden notebook on the table.
"This was found in Alexis' study by two of my students!" He calmly introduced, "There was a powerful protective magic released above, but now, I have removed it!" ”
Merry and Naloras were both there listening silently, waiting for further explanations from Antonidas.
"There's something very important in the notebook...... Alexis had previously discovered the traces of a demon, and he suspected that the deaths of four council members had something to do with it! So he came up with a way to destroy this demon, he disguised himself as a power-hungry mage, and asked this demon for help, hoping that the demon would give him strength...... At the same time, at the moment of his trade with the demon, rely on another powerful mage to take the opportunity to summon this demon and kill it! ”
Merry and Naloras looked at each other.
"So, Alexis went to find Medivan?" Merry asked softly.
"In fact, he was suspicious of both of us, he just told us both that he was going to find Medivan, and the rest of the details were kept secret! It's a pity that he's suspicious of the wrong person......" Naloras sighed.
Alexis' decision, while wrong, was understandable, and in this case, the Guardian was clearly more trustworthy than the two ordinary members of the Council of Tirisfa.
"Maybe we can take advantage of that too!" Merry suddenly spoke, "He must know some of it, too?" We summoned this demon, tortured it, and got some useful information from it? ”
"I'm pretty good at teleportation spells, and I'm confident that I'll summon them! And even if it is summoned, the three of us can easily defeat it! "The problem is that both of you are too strong, and if you ask that demon for help, it won't be fooled......"
"I can find my students and do a little help......" Antonidas whispered.
……
Carlin followed his mentor to a dense and peaceful grove in the Silver Pines Forest.
Along the way, Archmage Antonidas was giving him what he needed to do today, as well as its do's and don'ts.
"According to what is written above, get in touch with the demon and agree to his conditions, as long as he agrees to give you power......
"And after that, I'll give you a hint, you immediately disconnect from all contact with the demons, and then run as far as you can, so as not to be hurt by the aftermath of our battle!"
"If the demon finds out something unusual about you, you should immediately cut off all contact with it, and we will find another way!"
Antonidas made every detail clear to Carlin......
Karin was a little surprised, he didn't expect the mentor to actually use himself to summon a demon...... However, he said that he had arranged everything so that Carlin would be in little danger.
Soon, Carlin followed his mentor to his destination.
There were already two mages here, one of them wearing a black cloak and a black hood, and his face was not visible at all; The other was an elven mage, an old but elegant High Elf with a very unfamiliar face, and for some reason, Carlin always felt that his appearance was somewhat similar to that of Prince Kael'thas.
The bodies of the two mages invisibly exude a very terrifying pressure, and they are both very powerful mages, at least with the strength of the Eight Rings!
The elven mage had even set up a summoning circle on the ground.
It seems that he is going to take advantage of the moment when he is "trading" with the demon and use this to forcibly summon him?
"Are you ready?" The man in black asked.
His voice was hoarse and sounded odd.
Carlin nodded.
"Don't worry...... In case of accidents, your safety should be the priority, just disconnect from the demon, and everything else can be discussed in the long run! Antonidas did not forget to instruct again.
Carlin nodded again.
Raise your head and look up into the void...... Follow the route written in the golden notebook and find the demon's will!
A little closer...... The distance, it's close, the will of that demon......
"Who's calling me?"
A strong voice, ringing in Carlin's head!
But Carlin, at this point in his mind, is broken...... Why is this demon's will, he is a little familiar with it?
Wait, this voice seems to be the will of the demon he encountered when he flew over the land of ghosts on the Dragon Eagle.
"Who is it, why don't you respond to me......" The demon was obviously a little impatient to wait!
"That...... Dear Lord of the Abyss, it's me, I may need your help. Carlin had no choice but to bite the bullet in response.
"It turned out to be that arrogant and small mortal! Hum! The demon sneered, "But I can't afford the title of King of the Abyss. ”
This demon still recognizes himself, does he have such a good memory?
"Great will, I apologize for the recklessness I once had...... And now I really need your help, more strength and power...... Woo......" Carlin said almost in tears, "I used to be a ...... No, the most genius mage of the Windranger family, as a result, lost all his magic due to an accident, and after years of meditating very hard, he only had three fighting powers...... Don't ...... the strength of the third stage of the mage's apprentice."
I didn't expect this demon to listen attentively to the "story" made up by Carlin.
"Sounds like a very tragic story...... Tiny mortal, are you willing to believe in us and join us at the cost of your own soul to gain great power, unlimited power? The demon asked solemnly.
"Of course, I'd ......," Carlin said without hesitation.
Before he could finish speaking, Carlin only felt the powerful will closing in on him.
And then...... Abruptly stopped!
"Carlin, the ritual is complete, let's go!" Archmage Antonidas was heard shouting.
"Damn, it's a trap...... Cowardly reptile, how dare you ......" and heard the demon's roar.
“…… Willing to,! ”
Carlin cursed as he turned and ran as far as Antonidas had instructed him to do.
