Wizard Alchemist

Chapter 703 The King of Bone Demons (2-in-1)

"Damn it, those wizards finally came after all!"
And it just so happens that we chose to go to this planet, Tanzania!

"This world is doomed! We must get out of here as soon as possible!"

"But before that, it's best to cause them some trouble, otherwise those old guys in the council will say we're cowardly and run away at the first sign of trouble!"

While this is indeed roughly the truth, the elite mages of Achinila would naturally not accept it willingly.

They immediately used all the knowledge they had to set up a magic array in a secluded manor.

……

Before I knew it, it was late at night.

In the basement of the manor, in a spacious hall that had been specially prepared.

Five Yachinila mages formed a circular circle around the inverted pentagram magic circle.

Their individual figures flickered, their blood-red, ghostly projections illuminating the walls and ground like wandering spirits in the candlelight of the formation.

A pungent odor filled the air along with the burning sulfur, and on the central stone floor, a magic circle pattern outlined with white phosphorus was spontaneously combusting, emitting an eerie glow.

Why haven't we been able to get in touch with them yet?

"Keiros, is this damn formation of yours even going to work?!"

Crouch, the chief mage among them and primarily responsible for providing magic, complained.

"I feel like I'm being drained dry! And those wizards could find this place at any moment!"

"No problem, there shouldn't be any problem..."

Kairos muttered to himself, his mental energy rapidly searching for the complex patterns at the edge of the array.

As a newly minted mage specializing in summoning, the complexity of this magic circle was indeed a challenge to his knowledge.

The magic required to activate it far exceeds what one person can handle, which is why the idea of ​​having at least five people work together to cast the spell was conceived.

Unexpectedly, this created new problems regarding the magical connection between them, the coordination between them, and the use of materials.

"The binding runes in the eastern quadrant are a bit blurry..." another mage reported in a deep voice, "There's a phenomenon of void erosion happening over there!"

Crouch cursed under his breath and turned to his companion on his left: "Don't be stingy with your treasures. I know you have bone powder made from high-grade demon bones. Sprinkle it on me!"

Urged on by him, his companion reluctantly took out his spellcasting kit and sprinkled a small amount of precious demon bone powder on it.

High-level demons are already difficult to kill, and the phenomenon of their corpses remaining in the material plane after death is extremely rare.

Therefore, it can be considered precious.

However, precisely because of this, the previously somewhat unstable Void Runes have finally resumed their expected operation.

Then, the entire magic circle suddenly stabilized and began to emit intense light.

"Offerings, quick!"

Just then, another monk gave a reminder.

A dozen or so warriors and their followers escorted the local natives. The Potan aliens stepped forward and mercilessly killed them with their swords, piling up their corpses on their respective platforms.

Kelos felt a sharp pain in his stomach, and his face twitched slightly.

"Oh, damn it! When I discussed this plan with you guys, no one told me that you were planning to use live sacrifices to amplify the effect of communicating with hell! I should have known better than to do it!"

"Don't worry, the natives of this world don't really fit the aesthetics of the councilors, or even the aesthetics of the monster protection organization. Everything will be fine!"

Besides, even if something were to happen, it would only be a mere few dozen Potanians...

Just do it if it is not prohibited by law!
Our laws in Achinila don't have any provisions protecting these indigenous species!

At a crucial moment, Crouch once again demonstrated his leadership qualities.

Now that he was on the pirate ship, Kelos could only stop complaining and focus on the forbidden summoning ritual before him.

"Gates of Hell, open!"

Finally, amidst a strange tremor.

A crack appeared in the stone slab at the center of the magic circle, from which dark red light burst forth.

Immediately afterwards, the crack rapidly expanded, instantly transforming into an oval-shaped, scarlet portal that stood upright, approximately 3 meters high.

A wave of heat, mixed with the smell of sulfur, hit him in the face, forcing Kelos to raise his arm to shield his face.

"We did it!" the others cheered.

Amidst everyone's anticipation, a skeleton, its entire body made of bones, appeared—like an insignificant skeletal soldier in a dimensional battlefield…

But the Bone Demon, dressed in imposing armor and significantly stronger than an ordinary skeleton, reached out and gripped the edge of the hole, "squeezing" out through the portal.

Only when it fully appeared and everyone retreated did they realize with some surprise that the other party was much larger than they had imagined, and the aura emanating from it was much more evil and powerful.

"No...this is not right..."

After clearly seeing the other person's figure, Kelos turned pale.

"The magic circle's specifications only allow for the summoning of mid-level demons, but... what's going on here..."

“Foolish mage, it is I, the great lord of the seventh level of hell, the Bone Demon King, Lord Osteron Daemon, who has answered your call…”

They just appeared here!

Next time, remember to make the portal bigger!
If there's a next time!

Hearing this, Kylos and Crouch were both surprised and delighted.

This is a demon with high intelligence; these words are tantamount to acknowledging the summoning contract between them.

Osteron agrees to act as a party to the contract and to respond as necessary to the summoning spells of Kelos.

Offer him some basic assistance when he needs it...

The others couldn't help but look at Kelos with a mixture of envy and jealousy.

"This is the summoning system!"

"Damn it, you really deserve to die! You succeeded on your first try!"

"He's only been promoted for a short time, yet he's already formed a contract with a high-level demon-level Bone Demon King?"

Although they did not recognize this demon, they could roughly determine its identity based on basic "planetology" and knowledge of demons in hell.

This is an existence with top-tier level three strength, enough to dominate the seventh level of hell!
Recovering from his immense surprise, Kelos quickly bowed and said, "Your Excellency Osteron, I offer this world to you..."

That's right, instead of sleeping at night, they were secretly conducting this evil sacrificial ritual in the basement of this manor...

It was all to summon powerful demons and present this material world as a gift to the demons of hell!

There are many conflicts between mages and demons. Upon hearing this, Osteron chuckled dryly, "You've left us to clean up this mess again..."

But kid, you're lucky. I'm fairly satisfied with the native souls of this world!
Sign this contract, then get out! ******
As soon as he finished speaking, an ancient, yellowed scroll flew out. When it was unfurled, it was none other than the "Kritik Contract"!
This is a legendary summoning contract established by an ancient sorcerer known as "Kritik" after he personally descended into hell and became acquainted with many powerful demons through a series of battles.

Its essence is a summoning contract of the framework agreement nature. The general content is that after a summoning ritual that meets certain specific conditions, the member demons and their descendants, or other powerful beings who voluntarily join this contract, jointly abide by and maintain this contract.

Over time, it has become an essential scripture for summoners and one of the most widely circulated and used "mother" summoning contracts in the magic world today!

Thinking of this, the other mages couldn't help but feel even more envious.

As a top student who graduated from the Summoning Department, Kelos naturally knew what this meant.

With a touch of excitement, he quickly checked the authenticity of the contract and signed his name on the projection of the original document.

From then on, he also became the creator of the Kritik Pact!
Specifically, the one who formed a pact with him was the Bone Demon King, Osteron. However, as a high-ranking hell lord with numerous powerful subordinates, most of the responders were ordinary bone demons or elite experts.

Soon, he sensed that his "Summoning Mark" was faintly connected to the Bone Demon King before him, as well as many other hellish beings under his control.

This is based on the premise that Osteron can secure his position as lord.

If you have fewer subordinates, the quantity and quality of those who can respond to your call will be greatly reduced.

The ground shook again, this time more violently.

Even the dust on the ceiling was falling down, and tables, chairs, candlesticks and other items were overturned.

Amidst the chaos, more and more monsters, guided by the power of the contract, climbed and squeezed out from the surrounding void.

Beyond the oval-shaped portal, more cracks of varying sizes continue to appear.

Crouch, Kylos, and the others quickly fled the scene.

……

"Sweeping away this world is easier and simpler than I expected!"

"We're pretty lucky; this is another place with a weak will to resist, which we can easily conquer!"
I had a vague feeling that these Potanians now only felt awe and obedience towards us…

In the blink of an eye, a few days later.

In one of the famous tourist attractions on Potan, Orgrimmar was comfortably soaking in a hot spring, with female warriors from the Chakra World reclining on either side of him.

On the shore not far away, a row of native maids... The beautiful women among the Potan people stood there obediently, serving dishes with reverence.

As the female warrior reached out, she quickly brought out a precious fruit from the fruit platter.

Aug enjoyed being fed by the female warrior, but said to his subordinates who were also soaking in the hot spring beside him, "This place has useful resources..."

Have the statistics been compiled, including those for minerals and various foods?
Also, are there any magic crystal mines here?

After serving the wizards for a while, he began to understand the needs of those adults.

"This planet Potan doesn't have very rich magical resources, but fortunately it has several elemental gem mines and a barren magic crystal mine."

The reserves of various metals, including gold, silver, copper, iron, and mercury, are also quite abundant.

Their world government has a department called the Resources Department, and I've already sent some capable subordinates to take over and formulate a tax-farming plan!

"Yes, this is something Lord Roy specifically instructed us to do, so we must not make any mistakes."

Aug said.

"But taxation is too troublesome, and we don't have much time!"

……

At the same time, on the other side.

Roy was leading Edrali and the others to inspect the Potan aliens' weapons and equipment.

Due to their physical constitution and psychic abilities, the Potan aliens are not suited to using armor, but they have developed some decent energy weapons, such as magic beam cannons and electromagnetic cannons!

Roy personally examined them and found that most of them had reached level one or higher power, with some elite specimens even reaching level two!

The level 2 referred to here only refers to individual weapons, or miniaturized constructs such as autonomous combat puppets.

Large warships, for example, have even reached the peak of the second level.

Soon after, a small batch of nuclear weapons was discovered!

Looking at the detailed information on the launch silos scattered throughout Potan, Roy was pleasantly surprised.

"Even a technologically advanced world needs to reach a relatively late stage of industrialization before it can unlock weapons of mass destruction like nuclear weapons."

However, the Potanians' technology tree exhibits some strange leaps in development.

It seems unsurprising that the fruit of nuclear weapons has been borne ahead of schedule.

They were then confirmed to have outdated launch capabilities, which at best could only defend against some secondary worlds or corresponding small groups of enemies.

Against someone capable of withstanding a nuclear bomb with their bare hands, it's utterly useless except to provoke them.

"But I can make full use of this!"

Furthermore, possessing nuclear weapons means having a large quantity of raw materials such as corrupted uranium crystals, which can also be used to produce a large amount of the base agents for panaceas, uranium-based agents, and other similar products!

Roy immediately made a decision to have the Potanians and Aragians screen for demonized uranium essence together!
After that, he and Aug and the others had a brief exchange and confirmed the various resources that the world possessed, which greatly satisfied them.

However, at this moment, Roy fully realized that he could not stay in this world for long.

Because the central star region is still an enemy-controlled area behind enemy lines, if the situation on the front line changes and they send out powerful forces to encircle and annihilate us, we will have to run away!
It's not necessarily true that we can't win...

But you still have to run.

Because once surrounded, the consequences would be unimaginable.

What else can we do?
Hurry up and pick out some good stuff to take home!
As a result, Roy devoted a lot of attention to this matter in the days that followed.

Unexpectedly, just over a month later, two pieces of news suddenly came to light.

A large number of demons have appeared in the western city of Carod!
Several mages attempted to set up a teleportation array to leave this world, but were discovered and destroyed by the patrolling Adari, who then captured them!
The two pieces of news arrived almost simultaneously.

Roy immediately sensed a connection and had Adria bring them over for a personal interrogation.

It turned out they were blaming each other and arguing.

To be precise, all four of them were blaming the summoning mage named Kelos.

"It's all your fault! You said the advantage was on my side and we could turn the tables..."

"If we leave earlier, nothing will happen?"

"You lucky summoner, you've really gotten cocky, thinking you've become a powerful being? Where's your Bone Demon King? Why isn't he here to save you?"

In just a few words, he confessed without being asked, revealing the whole story.
