Chapter Twenty-Four: Narrator

Sylvia had a hesitant look on her face, and she held out her two hands, as if she wasn't sure if the exchange had been successful.

"I'm redeeming a bloodline enhancement called a magic elf, and according to the description on the information given by the ball of light, a magic elf is a creature made of pure magical energy. It is very similar to the Arcane Spirit, but the difference between the two is that the Arcane Spirit is the product of the erosion and mutation of the Arcane Energy, and although it has an endless supply of Arcane Energy in the body, it does not have an autonomous mind and can only act on instinct.

The magic elves are different, although the magic elves can generate magic power on their own, but compared with the arcane spirits, they are far inferior, but the magic elves have a strong arcane affinity, and the bloodline exchange provided by this main god is an improved version. So you don't have to worry about me turning into a glowing little blue man, at least my appearance won't change. ”

In fact, Sylvia said, she didn't value the two bloodline talents of magic elves and self-generated magic, and compared to the arcane energy provided by the arcane essence, the self-produced point was really not enough.

What she values most is the special physique of magic elves, because magic elves have the same phase as arcane energy, so they don't have to worry about magic addiction at all, just like a fish doesn't have to worry about drowning in water.

"So you can now use magic without limits?" Xing Tianyu asked in surprise.

"It should be, at least in theory."

"We'll just have to wait and see how it turns out."

Sylvia released dozens of magic, exhausted the magic power in her body in one breath, and then sat there and waited quietly, but the feeling of hunger and thirst and emptiness before did not appear, she closed her eyes, and could clearly feel that the arcane energy of her body was gradually recovering, just like a person who had exhausted his physical strength recovered his strength, although slowly, but without any side effects.

When she opened her eyes, Sylvia suddenly showed a look of surprise.

"It seems that the bloodline of this magic elf has indeed been successfully exchanged!"

Hearing this, everyone's expressions were different, Xing Tianyu was happy, but the others were congratulating, but their faces were full of regret, envy, and regret.

If they had exchanged the Book of Otherworldly Things, they would have been able to gain great power.

However, this emotion soon disappeared, and compared to the power that could be obtained from the wishes of the lamp god and the constant summoning, the things that could be exchanged for the points given by the main god of the light ball were not so attractive.

The night passed quickly, and the next morning, after a hearty breakfast, a group of people gathered again on the summoning platform. Today, it's Lucifer's turn.

Lucifer was in a hurry, and among the seven people, three of them were bound to get the lamp god, one was Ozawa-kun, in order to lift the curse, and the other was Shadow and the Red Witch, and the other was to exorcise the Red Witch's addiction.

In contrast, the attitude of others towards the lamp god is certainly very longing, but they are not so impatient.

However, now, Ozawa-kun's curse has been lifted, the red witch's addiction has been resolved, and the professor, the lich, and the white frost have recently become obsessed with that brain monster, which makes everyone's willingness to summon the lamp god not so serious.

Although no one said anything, there was no doubt that if there were two more setbacks, the team that summoned the Lamp God would probably be at risk of falling apart - at least that's what Lucifer thought.

So this time, he boldly made some changes to his spells, and became less conservative than before.

"All right, guys. Without further ado, let's start summoning. Lucifer simply omitted the explanation of the incantation, and soon the ritual began.

Standing in the summoner's position, Lucifer began to recite his incantation.

[A mysterious existence from an unknown world]

[The eternal and immortal will, the mind that perceives all things, the existence that ignores the law, and the mysterious things that play the world]

[I call you in the name of the fortunate one, I call on you in the name of the unfortunate, I question your existence in the name of mortals]

[In the name of the Oath of the Lamp God]

[I call you to come to this world]

Although the situation of each summoning of the people before was different, this time, there was an anomaly.

The spell was quickly completed, and the spiritual energy vortex gradually took shape, and the spiritual power consumption was extremely huge, only slightly smaller than when the primordial ancient god was summoned, but in a burst of shining white light, when the summoning ceremony ended, everyone did not notice that anything had come to this world.

Several people looked around and were surprised to find that there was nothing around except for the seven.

This is the first time.

"That thing can't be invisible, right?" The lich asked subconsciously as he began to pull out a mirror and look around.

The others also reacted almost at the same time, stealth is a common occurrence in summoning rituals, so they each resorted to the trick of detecting invisibility.

However, Xing Tianyu and White Frost had already turned on psionic vision, Sylvia also released a manifestation technique, and the professor used a magic lamp to scan around, and Lucifer called out a few batwing demons that could detect invisibility, but still found nothing. It was as if nothing had been summoned, but the summoning ritual just now had clearly taken effect again, which made everyone extremely strange and puzzled, and a group of people stared at each other, all looking surprised.

Although it seemed like there was nothing, the summoning ritual just now was clearly reactive, so several people were stretched to the extreme at this time, but there was no way.

Sylvia suddenly seemed to remember something, "I may have a way!" As she spoke, she took out a mirror from her magic pocket, which was a magic mirror she had summoned some time ago, and gently stroked it with her hand, and a golden human face immediately appeared in the magic mirror. Any commands? My dear hostess. ”

"Magic Mirror, Magic Mirror, tell me, did we just summon something?"

"Of course, hostess. Your summoning ritual has been very successful. ”

"And what about the thing we summoned? Where is it? Why can't I see it? ”

"It's inβ€”"

Click, before the magic mirror could finish its sentence, suddenly a huge mark cracked on the mirror, and the face in the mirror screamed and disappeared suddenly.

"Hey, Magic Mirror! Magic Mirror! Please reply when you hear it! - Damn! Sylvia put the mirror away and looked around in disbelief.

"Get out of here, you bastard, I know you're nearby!" Sylvia shouted twice, seeing that there was no response, a sneer flashed at the corner of her mouth, her hands were closed, and a silver ball of light appeared in her hand, "Show up for me!" With a strong wave of her hands, the silver ball of light immediately began to expand, spreading in all directions, instantly coating the surrounding area of hundreds of meters with a layer of silver.

This magic is called [God's Vision], and theoretically, whether it is a spirit or invisibility, it will be revealed, but the result is that nothing is out at once.

At this moment, Sylvia's face suddenly changed.

Everyone looked around, and for a moment they all fell into a state of panic, and there was silence all around, except for the sound of the wind blowing through the sand.

However, at this moment, a voice suddenly sounded.

[Sylvia was obviously a little incredulous, her magic had disappointed her for the first time, it was obvious that this time what she had summoned was an existence that she couldn't understand herself, but at the same time, she was also a little surprised, she had seen too many strange things in the past few days, 'Maybe it's time to stop' Sylvia thought that after solving her magic addiction problem, she had become less enthusiastic about summoning the lamp god, especially when the things summoned were getting weirder and weirder each time. 】

The voice sounded without warning, faint and calm, not like a conversation with someone, but like a narrator in some movie.

"Who is Sylvia?" The lich asked suddenly. "Wait a minute, Scarlet Witch, you won't just call Sylvia, will you?"

White Frost glared at him, "I'm more curious about that voice than to me, why does it sound like it's right next to us, but we can't see anything?" ”

"Looks like we've summoned something." The professor said, digging out various other props from his backpack and searching around Sylvia.

However, nothing was found.

"It looks like it's neither a spirit nor an invisible thing, or even an energy fluctuation to be found, it's something we can't understand at all." The professor said nervously and excitedly. "The only thing I'm thankful for is that it doesn't seem to be a threat so far.

But this is completely beyond common sense.

"So your name is Sylvia?" The professor asked.

Sylvia nodded with a somewhat ugly face, the real name is very sensitive among summoners, and everyone tries not to let others know, but I didn't expect her to be exposed inexplicably, although it's not a big deal, but it's always a hidden danger, but fortunately they don't know that my full name is Sylvia Berdra, Sylvia thought.

But at this time, the voice rang out again.

[Sylvia suddenly discovers that her name is known to others.] She didn't know how this happened, and all the while, she tried to hide her real name as much as possible, after all, it was basic common sense as a summoner. Now, however, for some unknown reason, her real name has been revealed, and luckily they don't know that my full name is Sylvia Berdra, Sylvia thought. While she was annoyed, she thought that it would be fair that she should know the real names of other people. After all, her trust in these companions in front of her is very limited, especially to Lucifer and Ozawa-kun, she had secretly released the Secret Magic Eye on these two before, monitoring their actions at any time, but she did not find any useful information. 】

[However, she doesn't intend to say what she thinks in her heart, some things just need to think about it in her heart.] 】

The voice sounded like a narrator, but what the narration revealed made several people look at Sylvia together.

"Is it true? What kind of Rausch arcane magic magic did you put on the two of us? Lucifer asked angrily. And Xiao Zejun was also angry, but probably because Xing Tianyu saved his life, he didn't say anything.

Sylvia opened her mouth, about to explain. The voice rang out again.

[Lucifer felt extremely angry that he was being watched by his companions, which made him feel angry and a little weak at the same time, because he himself also sent several invisible shadow demons to secretly monitor the movements of other summoners. However, he decided to cover up his inner weakness with outward anger, and at the same time secretly prayed that his secret would not be discovered, but this worry was mostly unnecessary. Because his behavior is so stealthy that it is almost impossible to detect. 】

This time, everyone's eyes were on Lucifer. "Shadow Fiend, huh? I just said that I always felt like someone was watching me. White Frost said angrily, "You voyeur! ”

"I didn'tβ€”and why should we believe that voice?"

"Hmph, whether you have done it or not, you know it in your heart."

At this time, the voice rang out again.

[White Frost felt sincerely disappointed, which reminded her of an invitation from a mage in the world of Atlantis a few months ago. That mage organization had always wanted to gain access to the secrets of summoning, and in return, they were willing to summon White Frost into their world after obtaining the technology. And because of some unrealistic fantasies about the world of Atlantis, White Frost has agreed to the other party's request and provided relevant information, she has always felt guilty about this, feeling as if she had betrayed the summoner organization, but now, the actions of her companion make her realize that no one can be trusted, and she decides that once she has completed this operation, she will accept the call and leave the world that she is tired of. 】

The professor's face was full of shock, "Oh my God! Hoarfrost! How can you do that! Betraying the secrets of summoning, do you know how bad your actions are? If only the council had known. ”

And the lich was also gloating, "Hmph, I know she's not a good bird, she usually pretends to be like Snow White, and she betrays our secrets, and wants me to say that we should arrest her." ”

Although the Lich's tone is righteous and awe-inspiring, in fact, in his heart, there are also hidden secrets. The voice followed the buzz again.

"Stop!" The lich's face changed, and he hurriedly shouted loudly, and he looked towards the sky, unsure where he should look. "I know what you're trying to say, so I'll just shut up, right?"

But the voice didn't let him go.

[The secret of the lich is that he has secretly taken refuge in the Soul Serpent of the world of Neracero: Soul Eater Aladosako, in exchange for an immortal soul at the price of his service, even if his body is destroyed, his soul can be resurrected through the power of the Soul Eater, for which he even promised to take the initiative to open a portal for the world of Nella Thro when it invades. 】

This time, everyone's eyes were even more hostile. At best, the behavior of hoarfrost can be regarded as selling technology and harming the interests of the organization. And the lich's behavior is a proper leading party.

"Hey, I didn't say that. I'm just saying... The lich wanted to explain, but couldn't seem to speak. Suddenly, as if he remembered something, he cried out, "Lucifer is right, why should we listen to it?" That voice is simply sowing discord. ”

"The Lich is right, it's clear that it's trying to sow discord, it's an otherworldly creature, and we all know otherworldly creatures can't be trusted. If we believe it, it's a trick. But it was the hoarfrost who said this.

[White Frost agrees with the lich's words for the first time, and she even feels a little grateful to the lich, whose actions make her actions seem less shameful.] At the same time, the hostility towards the lich that had always been turned into a strange feeling at this moment. 】

"Hey, I don't have any strange feelings!" White Frost shouted, but the crimson on her face made her seem less convincing.

The lich glanced at the white frost in some astonishment, and his eyes rolled as if he had thought of something.

[The lich suddenly thought of a good idea, and he thought that maybe he could use this trick to get out of his current predicament. 】

The lich opened its mouth, but hesitated not to speak immediately.

"What do you want to say?" Xing Tianyu asked with a cold face.

"I want to say that we don't have to take the words of this voice. First of all, we're not sure that it can actually know what we're thinking, and at the same time, we're not sure if it won't lie, so we don't have to listen to it. The lich spoke, but he didn't have much confidence, for it was evident that the narrator had already spoken his mind before he could open his mouth.

[The lich's words drew a chorus of approval, which is a good point to make and can be very suitable to cover up the darkness in everyone's hearts.] However, they knew in their hearts that the rift had appeared, and although they could still continue their activities, they no longer had any trust in each other. The Professor was the first to realize this, and he made up his mind to leave the camp with the Brain Monster tonight, in fact, he had already thought of a plan, several of the so-called bombs he had brought out were actually disguised teleporters, and at the slightest thought of him, they would teleport the Brain Monster to a place that only he knew. He'd already figured out how to explain the disappearance of the Brain Monster, and when it was over, he would have plenty of time to study the amazing creature. 】

The professor hurriedly shook his head, "I definitely don't have this idea!" ”

"Are you sure? So you wouldn't mind handing over the management of Dream Brain, would you? The lich asked with an unkind face.

"Traitors who sold their souls are too embarrassed to talk to me about trust?" The professor was also anxious.

"Who do you say is a traitor?" Seeing the tension, the atmosphere became tense. Xing Tianyu suddenly yelled, "Shut up for me!" ”

His roar contained the power of the Spirit Venerable, and the scene was completely silent for a while.

"Guys, don't forget what we're here for? What we're going to do is summon the god of lights, and it's a very risky business. I don't know anything about your past, and I don't care if you want to escape this world, or sell our world to someone else. It's all your own business, I don't want to interfere, and if I have something like that, I don't think I'll do your business. ”

"At the same time, it's normal for us to be wary of each other, after all, we didn't have any friendship before that. It's not a strange thing to spy on each other, it's an instinct of self-defense, an instinct that humans have evolved over millions of years, and those who lack these instincts are long dead. So there's no need to be angry, deep down, you should know that this is normal, so stop pretending to be noble. I don't have the time to discuss these useless things with you. Let's figure out how to deal with the otherworldly creature in front of us, or how to continue summoning the Lantern God. ”

His words made the previous tense atmosphere disappear without a trace, and everyone thought about it, among the summoners, it is estimated that there are no good birds, and everyone gathered together to summon the god of lights, and what to do with those useless things.

"You're right."

"The Shadow is right."

Everyone agreed, either in agreement, or silently nodded.

The atmosphere of mutual tension has finally eased.

However, the voice rang out again hauntingly.

[The Shadow's words brought the summoners back to their unity, at least on the surface, they decided to put aside their prejudices against each other, but what they didn't know was that a great crisis was approaching, the shadow of death had loomed over everyone's heads, and the consequences of their previous unbridled summoning were destined to bloom on this night, and this night was destined to be a night of dangerous killing, but I don't know, how many people will be able to see the sun tomorrow morning]

After the voice finished speaking, a burst of eerie music immediately sounded very appropriately, just like the kind that often appears in horror movies, which made everyone subconsciously feel a sense of horror, as if something bad was about to happen.
