Chapter 720: Ritual

On the other side, at the same time, on top of the ruins of Babylon where the clay tablets were found.

At the moment, there are no ordinary people here.

Tony Stark is here, Alicia's two older sisters, Isabel and Eugenia, and the demon slayer mage Zangzath is actually here.

In addition to this, there are a large number of magicians standing behind them.

They are all true scholars in Hogwarts, focusing on the study of ancient magic and ancient rituals.

Most of the texts they studied were compiled by Char from the library of the Fairy Land and the library of Hades, so they were all very old orthodox rituals.

At this moment, it is estimated that these are the only people who can hold such a ceremony in this world.

Actually, at the beginning of the war, they were prepared here.

The pre-preparation for this ancient ritual is unusually time-consuming, and the risks are enormous.

But if they succeed, they may be able to turn the tide of the situation today!

In the darkness of the night, they gathered in front of the ancient stone slabs, dressed in robes inlaid with stars and holding staffs inlaid with precious stones, which radiated a faint light. The air is filled with a faint smell of spices and smoke, which mix together to create an ancient and solemn atmosphere.

Clay tablets are an important way to record the ancient Sumerian region in the valley of the two rivers.

In fact, in this ruin, people have excavated 16 clay tablets, and the contents of the clay tablets are a complete chronology of Sumerian kings, also known as Sumerian kings.

In this royal table, the Sumerians claimed that their first king, Arulim, fell from heaven and reigned in the city of Elidu, and reigned for 28,800 years, which means that the Sumerians claimed that their first king came from the sky, and their civilization came from heaven.

The Sumerians calculated the chronology in SARS, a SARS is 3600 years, and the first king in the king table is 8SARS.

Then the second king, Alaraja, also reigned in Elidu, reigning for 10sars, 36,000 years.

The third king, Nmen Luana, reigned in the city of Badtibera and reigned for the longest time, 12sars, 43,200 years. After that, there were a total of 8 kings, who ruled the Sumerian dynasty for more than 240,000 years.

The time of the reign of these kings is actually a testament to the existence of a vast and mythical age in the distant past.

However, because such a long period of time is so incredible in this era, there is a great deal of controversy among archaeologists in this era.

After the eight kings, there was a great flood that existed in many myths.

According to Sumerian myths and legends, it was because the world was too chaotic, the sins of people were too great, and the gods thought that the world was too noisy, so they launched a great flood to wipe out everything from mankind, and only a few sheltered people survived.

In the aftermath of the Great Flood, dozens of kings reigned in succession. Although the reign of the king after the Great Flood was significantly shortened, only more than a thousand or a few hundred years, compared to ordinary people, it was also a god-like existence.

Until the appearance of a king "Gilgamesh", this king is a person who is clearly recorded in history, he is the fifth king of the Sumerian city-state of Uruk, and he is also the protagonist of the earliest epic poem in history, the epic of Gilgamesh.

And the life span of the king after him began to return to normal rapidly.

Interestingly, in Greek mythology, there are similar descriptions and legends of the Golden Age, the Silver Age, and the Bronze Age, where human life and strength were gradually diminishing.

This may also be a record of the beginning of the weakening of the magic.

The clay tablets themselves do not possess magical powers, but magicians can use this medium to communicate with ancient and powerful mysterious beings across the boundaries of time and space.

The stone slabs are covered with intricate patterns and mysterious symbols, each of which is like a trace carved by time, telling endless secrets.

This ritual will not succeed at any time in the past.

Because in the era of the end of the law, the magic power of this world is thin, and there is no soil for séance at all.

But that's no longer the case.

As many dragons died on the land, the magic in their bodies returned to the circle of the world cycle, providing the soil for the séance.

At this moment, the magic of this world is even comparable to that of the gods!

In other words, all the dragons that died in the land, including wurms, were actually "sacrifices" to complete this ritual.

Tony, who was performing this ceremony, seemed to realize something, and a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes.

He was clearly aware of that as well.

At this moment, everything that is happening seems to be moving in a certain direction under the guidance of some kind of human will.

Because whether it is the soil where these dragons invade the world and make this existence séance, or the discovery of these stone tablets, it is too much of a coincidence

However, Tony clearly knew that this ritual could not be stopped at this moment.

"Under the deep night sky, I call to the ancient gods.

Thou hast dispelled the haze of chaos with the form of thunder,

In the name of the stars, you illuminate the dark corners.

You are the lord of the storm,

Thy hammer of thunder, which crushes all stubbornness,

Your Condor wings, soaring through the sky.

You are the king of the gods, ruling over heaven and hell,

Thy wisdom is like an abyss, unfathomable,

Your power is unstoppable.

Most High God, I call you, answer my call,

Rise from the abyss of fate and descend from the river of time.

Let the power of your thunder ignite the fire in my heart,

Let the eye of your condor guide me in the right direction.

You are the bridge between the past and the future,

Thou hast trodden between heaven and earth,

Your deeds are etched in history.

Thou hast conquered the rebellious god with the wrath of thunder,

With the light of the stars, you have guarded the peace of the world.

I salute you, I pray to you,

May you come into the world and give me strength and wisdom! ”

As the mages uttered the words, their staffs began to glow brightly, and these rays of light intertwined in the air to form a complex and beautiful circle. The air was filled with powerful magical fluctuations, as if even time and space had frozen at this moment.

At this moment, the light in the center of the stone slab gradually lit up, emitting a deep and mysterious blue light, as if it was a portal to another world.

In the sky, a huge gear was projected onto the curtain by the blue light.

The gears slowly turned, making a heavy clattering sound, as if a long-sealed door was slowly opening with an ancient spell.

And behind the gate the sacred, in the wake of it.

But also at this moment.

The sky suddenly darkened, as if enveloped by a mysterious force. Suddenly, a crack slowly cracked open in the heavenly dome, as if the boundary between heaven and earth had been broken. Immediately after, a huge vertical pupil appeared in the crack, like a majestic mountain, towering into the clouds, overlooking the earth.

This vertical pupil exudes a deep and mysterious light that makes it impossible to look at it directly. Its presence caused the entire earth to fall silent, as if all life trembled under its gaze. The air around them seemed to freeze and suffocate.

The magic here is too huge, so almost instantly, this vertical pupil locked onto this area.

Feel the mystery coming from the magic array.

The pupil also contracted to a point in an instant.

At this moment, anyone can see fear and urgency in that eye.

Suddenly, a dazzling beam of light emanated from the center of the vertical pupil. Like the wrath of the gods, this beam of light suddenly descended, directly towards the ritual.

The beam of light lit up the entire sky, like the light of the end of the world.

But at this moment, the light on the stone slab suddenly burst out, lighting up the entire night sky!

A powerful force erupted from the stone slab, forming a pillar of light that soared into the sky.

The beam of light collided with the beam in the sky above, and the shock wave generated by the two energies spread out in all directions, destroying everything around them.

Even the dragons on the moon could see the dazzling light on the continent, and the terrifying magic made the whole earth tremble.

In this pillar of light, under the slightly widened eyes of those magicians.

A mysterious figure gradually appeared, he was dressed in brilliance, his face was solemn and mysterious, as if he held the fate of all things in the world.

His thunderous voice, full of domineering and majesty, also resounded in the hearts of every magician.

"I am the embodiment of thunder, the lord of storms, and the creator of stars.

I am the King of the Gods! The God of Creation!

When the ripples of fate touch my existence,

I, too, will come again!! (End of chapter)
