Chapter 1: Ordinary People Called
As a stone fell on the huge stone slab, the surrounding light gradually disappeared along with the magic array shining on the ground, and the middle-aged man in the magic robe kept flipping through the books in his hand, as if looking for some information. Beads of sweat the size of beans dripped from his forehead, and his eyes were full of confusion and doubt, as if he was a little inexplicable about this human being in the center of the teleportation array.
"I think my teleportation array is fine. The middle-aged man said as he continued to rummage through the books, even though there was absolutely nothing on them that could solve the current situation. The more he flipped through it, the more tired he felt, and finally he simply closed the book, looked at the "Beast Summoning Guide Manual" on it, and took a "puff", and then the flames that came out of his hand instantly engulfed it, and the book turned to ashes.
He looked up at the summoned creature—or, rather, the human creature that was indistinguishable from them. According to the books, the result of this summoning should be an elemental creature from another world, at least an elemental creature. But it turned out to be a strangely dressed human, who still looked confused, not understanding the current situation.
The middle-aged man coughed twice and asked the young man in strange costumes, "That...... Sir, where do you come from, do you need me to send him back?" he said, bowing slightly—after all, it was indeed his fault to summon people into this world.
The young man stared at him, as if he hadn't realized what was going on, he looked at everything around him suspiciously, as if he had never seen these things before, and carefully read every detail before turning his head in front of the middle-aged man.
"Huh, where is this? Didn't I cross over?" the young man patted his head as if he had reacted to something, and looked at the middle-aged man, "So this is the NPC leading the way? I remember that I died in a car accident." He said something that the middle-aged man didn't understand at all, and stood up and walked in front of the sluggish middle-aged man.
"Hello, hello! My name is Ke Zhou, a lot of advice, a lot of advice. The young man took the initiative to hold the middle-aged magician's hand, but this time it was the middle-aged man's turn to be confused, "Uh...... Hello, my name is Xiao Liu, a high-level space magician of the Northern Eagle Kingdom...... That, where are you from?" Xiao Liu himself was also a little strange, this kind of ghost thing is usually impossible to encounter, he could feel that the person in front of him did not have the slightest magic power fluctuation, it should not even have a basic magic energy pool.
Ke Zhou let go of his hand and patted his head, "I'm from...... emmmmm, I can't tell where I'm from. But do you really know magic? It feels so powerful. Ke Zhou said, looking at Xiao Liu in front of him excitedly, as if he wanted him to perform some magic. Xiao Liu felt a little strange at this gaze and inquiry—there should be nothing in this world that is not magical.
Immediately after, a two-meter-long black staff appeared in his hand out of thin air, and the surrounding air suddenly became a little dense, and a large amount of black particles gathered towards the staff, spinning like a storm and burrowing into the staff. The staff gradually emitted a black glow, a special light that darkened the room. With the chanting in Xiao Liu's mouth, the black particles began to gather towards the clearing, and gradually combined with each other, and finally solidified into an entity.
In just a dozen seconds, twenty warriors with giant swords in their hands and black armor appeared in front of Xiao Liu. They were half-kneeling on the ground, the swords in their hands in front of them, and surrendered in front of Xiao Liu. Xiao Liu, on the other hand, waved his hand and pointed at them, "This is magic, although it can be said to be space magic, but most people prefer to call it summoning magic." Immediately after, with a wave of Xiao Liu's hand, these creatures turned into black particles and disappeared. This made Ke Zhou's eyes look straight next to him, and he couldn't stop nodding.
"You are also called by me...... It's just that the original purpose was to summon a Myriad Book Beast as my research assistant. I just don't know why, maybe the material ratio is wrong? Or what's wrong, anyway, you're here with me now. Xiao Liu said as he touched his head with a wry smile, "So, until I find a way to send you back to your original place, you should stay with me first." ”
Xiao Liu said, giving an apologetic smile, while Ke Zhou immediately knelt down, "Master, teach me magic, I want to learn magic!"
Magic is a very attractive skill for anyone living in the real world, and Ke Zhou is one of the most obsessed people in this category. It's just that before he could continue, he was picked up by a middle-aged man, "Don't be in a hurry to kneel first...... There's bad news for you...... Your body seems to have some differences from ours, and it's likely that you won't be able to carry magic. Xiao Liu said as he lifted Ke Zhou to another room full of various instruments and threw him on the bed.
Ke Zhou looked around, and Xiao Liu had already taken out something like a magnifying glass, and kept looking at Ke Zhou's whole body. The magnifying glass emitted a strange light, which scanned every inch of Ke Zhou's skin with a soft touch. Soon, Xiao Liu dropped the magnifying glass, took out his staff instead, and began to chant slowly again. Countless black particles surged around Xiao Liu again, and they rushed into Ke Zhou's body like a storm—but in fact, Ke Zhou didn't feel anything.
The black particle storm lasted for about ten seconds before it stabilized, and then Xiao Liu patted Ke Zhou's shoulder and said to him with a depressed face:
"There's very little mana storage unit in your body...... Let's put it this way, your blood is so different from ours that they can't store this energy called magic like we do. As a result, you can be said to be almost completely incapable of using any magic, let alone becoming a magician...... In other words, in our world, no matter how bad your talent is, you can unleash an arcane missile, but you can't. ”
Xiao Liu's statement made Ke Zhou a little difficult to accept, as if a big dream had been broken. His first reaction was whether he could replace his body organs so that his body organs could be the same as normal people in this world, but he also thought that this world was a non-scientific world, and such a method might not be able to meet him in his life, or even if he did, he might not be able to succeed.
"I was just trying to see if I could send you back to the world you came from...... But your body seems to be seriously resistant to the magic I have put on you...... Then I tried the magic of the Dark Enhancement series again, and found that your body was also severely resistant. Xiao Liu said, picked up a stone casually, and the black particles on his body quickly gathered towards the stone, and then, a burst of black light appeared on the stone.
"Even the stones of this world can be directly strengthened, but your body can't...... This makes me interested, how the hell did I summon you?"
Ke Zhou listened blankly and shook his head. And Xiao Liu used something on him again, this time not even black particles appeared, but a yin wind suddenly swept through Ke Zhou's body, constantly trying to burrow into his body. After about ten seconds, the yin wind dissipated, and with it, Xiao Liu's more serious brows were furrowed.
"Well, would you like to stay and work with me on it? As he spoke, he applied the same thing to a stone, which soon cracked in the stone.
Ke Zhou didn't really understand what he was doing, but he was very surprised that there were cracks in the stone, because he didn't expect that this ability just now was a lethal ability, "This is ...... What?" He asked Xiao Liu with some trepidation, after all, magic is such a thing...... Strange.
"It's a curse...... Obviously, though, like augmentation and teleportation magic, it won't work for you at all. Xiao Liu said and began to sort out the research equipment, "After all, I summoned you...... I will provide you with food and lodging, and you can also read my research results as you like. Of course, I also hope that you will let me study your body, after all, it took so much time to summon you......"
As he spoke, holding a large pile of tools, he opened the door and slowly left the room.
