Mystic Overlord: Reading Gives Strength-Chapter 1054 - 1048: Contact

Although it is an underground building.

The underground space of the Three Beam Tower is essentially no different from the tower above, also enclosed by those three long pillars.

Ronald and Il descended from the elevator.

The first thing blocking their way was a locked rock door, with sixteen crimson grooves spread across the entire stone, where the violent magic fluctuation was extremely obvious, as if to remind those who came here — this is an extremely dangerous thing, and should never be touched!

Standing at this spot, Il immediately turned to Ronald and asked:

"Boss, do you know what this is?"

Ronald shook his head frankly:

"I don't know, and I've never seen a similar spell described in any of the related ancient texts."

Although continuously cramming knowledge from the mystical side.

But one thing is certain, there are undoubtedly an abundance of secrets Ronald has yet to know, especially in this era from hundreds of years ago, where everything is untraceable.

Encountering such a thing in the military structure of Rachimont's underground.

Can only be said as a development within reason.

And as for the rock door blocking their way, Il, after a brief thought, realized a very serious problem:

"Boss, can the ability Costate taught you handle this?"

"I remember that thing is suitable for dealing with intangible arrays like barriers, and it can also manage inscriptions. But for something this bizarre, can it really be used?"

What Il could see was something Ronald had also already realized.

So he just simply shook his head and walked straight toward the rock door in front of them:

"I don't know, and I don't intend to use it."

"To deal with something that looks this troublesome, I have a better option."

Shwip—

Immediately, Ronald activated "Humanity's End."

The Complete Technique of the Divine Comedy unfolded around him, instantly engulfing the rock door within its range. And the sixteen grooves originally on the rock surface also completely lost their color at this moment.

— At least in front of the Complete Technique "Humanity's End."

— They cannot perform any of their original effects.

"Il, step back a bit and keep watch for me around."

Ronald quickly issued a command, then both hands were already placed on the sides of the rock door.

He didn't want to waste the precious time that "Humanity's End" had unfolded.

At the moment, using sheer non-human terrifying strength, he pushed the heavy door in front inward.

Clack clack clack—

The friction between the rock and the ground, Ronald could also clearly feel the force coming from his hands. Although this door was heavy, without the spell's protection, it could only serve as ordinary physical defense.

In just a few seconds, Ronald had pushed open this door.

Everything behind it was immediately revealed to his eyes.

Previously, on the upper floors of the tower, the caster from the scroll room indicated a crystal ball was stored here, to contact the Grand Mage Shui who was outside.

But the actual situation differed somewhat.

Behind the sealed door was a treasure room covering an entire floor, where various items emanating magic fluctuations were stored, along with several chests specifically used for storing treasures.

If this wasn't history...

Wait!

Ronald initially thought this was a residual image left by history, and taking items wouldn't matter. But then he reconsidered; this indeed used to be everything, but it doesn't mean that in the real Rachimont Ruins, the Three Beam Tower doesn't exist!

Solving the problem of this ruin now.

Then going back to the outside world, finding the corresponding place, he might actually be able to get quite a few good items!

"..."

With this thought, Ronald's attitude immediately changed.

Not only was he looking for the crystal ball used to contact Shui, but he also activated "Greed's Original Sin," identifying some very eye-catching treasures within the treasure room.

In doing so, he was indeed dazzled.

Magic artifacts to enhance spell effects, items for attack or defense aside, there were even magic potions that could permanently enhance physical constitution!

Even after all this time traveling, it was Ronald's first time seeing such things.

As a once magical city.

This treasure room of Rachimont was truly filled with a dazzling array of treasures.

Hiss hiss hiss!

Just then, a sound came from the entrance of the treasure room.

Ronald turned his head and saw the firelight lighting up there.

After the duration of "Humanity's End" passed, the sixteen grooves on the rock door did not continue to remain dormant. They gradually emerged from weakness and then lit up with crimson evil fire along their pathways.

In just a blink of an eye, flames linked up at the door, then dragged the rock door across the ground, ultimately converging again.

Bang!

With a low thud, the rock door sealed shut again, seamlessly fitted.

Ronald had no particular reaction to this.

Because under his watch, the sealed door showed no signs of transmitting messages. In fact, as a completely sealed treasure room, it instead became their guarantee of safety.

— Isn't it just fine?

While Ronald paused to assess the situation, Il was rather at ease, continuing to explore the surrounding area.

She had great trust in her master's abilities, so she didn't care about this at all.

Thus, within those few seconds, Il found what they came for before Ronald did:

"Boss, is this the crystal ball?"

Ronald turned his head to see Il standing in front of a small table, having just uncovered a dark blue cloth on top.

And below, a crystal ball, approximately twenty centimeters in diameter.

It quietly sat on a plush cushion.

"..."

Upon seeing the crystal ball, Ronald sensed a very stable magic energy within, and it vaguely seemed to connect to something in the void.

All signs indicated that this was the communication device they were looking for.

"Il, well done."

Ronald simply praised Il, then walked forward to touch the surface of the crystal ball.

For these mystical creations, the usage is generally quite simple.

— Just touch it with your own magic energy.

Thus, in the next second after connecting with his magic energy, Ronald could feel this crystal ball was connected to seven other places, allowing him to freely choose one as a communication target.

Choosing one out of seven wasn't much of a difficulty.

Because there was only one that was the closest, located just on the continent east of the Dusk Ocean.

Thus, Ronald began sending out a contact signal.

...

Soon, a man who appeared to be in his forties, with a firm expression and a dignified aura, appeared within the crystal ball's image. From his expression at the moment, he was evidently a bit surprised by this communication.

His gaze went through the crystal ball's image.

Immediately locking onto Ronald, right in front:

"What happened at Rachimont? Why are you contacting me urgently this way?"
