From Skeleton Soldiers to King of the Undead - Chapter 219 Elemental Spirit

Leaving two copper coins behind, Roja left the fruit stall and walked forward along the street.

The bustling pedestrians unconsciously parted in front of him, making way for a spacious road.

Roja now knows that this small world is composed of three racial forces: Irish elves, shaman orcs, and Novas humans. The three parties are hostile to each other, and fierce small-scale battles have broken out all year round.

In this small closed world, the three major races fought frequently and each gave birth to strong men up to level seven, which was nothing to worry about for him.

As for the final trial and the Bull of Heaven that Roja is concerned about, these are legends that have been circulating here since ancient times and are known to everyone.

Legend has it that when outsiders appear in the ruins, it means the end is coming.

And if you want the race to continue in the apocalypse, someone needs to be able to pull out the sword in the stone deep in the Elf Forest and open the door to the final trial.

Those who pass the final trial will hopefully become heroes and save the world.

Roja didn’t know if any adventurers had entered here before him, but ordinary people in the royal city probably didn’t know the relevant information.

He must go to the Elf Forest to take a look at the so-called Sword in the Stone.

But before that, there was another thing that aroused Roja’s interest.

Walking on the street, bursts of rich elemental particles blew in your face with the wind.

Except for the vendors who stayed where they were, pedestrians from the entire block were walking forward in groups, with expressions of excitement and joy on their faces.

“A lot of magic…”

“Hurry up, the ancient altar is about to be opened…”

…

This is what the vendor said, the annual grand ceremony, the main content is that the mages of the royal city open the ancient altar and contract with the powerful elemental spirits.

With Roja’s poor magic knowledge, he didn’t know what kind of existence the elemental spirit was.

He has seen mages summoning elemental puppets and contracted monsters, but those do not seem to be the same thing as the so-called elemental spirits here.

Soon, he arrived at his destination.

The central area of ​​the city is a wide circular square. In the center of the square is a simple circular altar made of yellow stones.

Circles of ancient magic patterns were engraved on the top of the altar. One meter above the ground, a large red fireball was suspended, exuding a hot aura.

That flame…

Roja stared at the fireball on the altar and felt that it seemed to be alive.

Is that the elemental spirit?

At this time, the area was surrounded by a huge crowd, including ordinary residents watching the ceremony, as well as many mages wearing robes.

“The sacrifice begins!”

There were three men wearing masks and black robes, who looked like clergymen, presiding over the ceremony at the altar.

“Angang!” A pig with magic words painted all over its body was lifted up and screamed miserably.

The cleric waved his hand, cut off the pig’s head with an air blade and threw it into the flames together with the body.

“call!”

The flames instantly swallowed up the corpse and turned it into ashes, while itself expanded in a large circle.

“Moo——!” Immediately afterwards, another white cow was carried up, its throat was cut, and it was thrown into the fireball.

This was nothing until human prisoners, orc slaves, and elf slaves were also thrown into the fireball one after another, which seemed a bit like ancient evil sacrifices.

When the next sacrifice was carried up in chains, there was a sudden buzz among the crowd.

“What kind of monster is that?”

“Never seen…”

…

Um? Roja was also very surprised.

It was a short monster with two wings on its back that looked like a devil – a dwarf. It was a monster of the same type as the devil and the devil monarch tiefling. Not long ago, it was driven by the abyss to attack adventurers.

Appeared here unexpectedly…

There was a thought in his heart, and he had a bad premonition.

There are monsters left over from ancient times in the small world, but after generations of reproduction, they can only be regarded as super weakened versions compared with those in the maze. Even the magic stones are almost gone. They are one of the main sources of meat for the three major races here.

But monsters like the dwarf, as can be seen from the facial expressions and psychological activities of the people around them, are completely alien monsters to them.

“The orcs have surrendered to the abyss demons… These are the demon relatives captured from the border. Now they are sacrificed to the elemental spirits…”

A cleric said, waving his hand to chop off the head of the dwarf and throwing it into the fireball.

“boom!”

The fireball exploded in size, expanding to the size of a house, then transformed into the shape of a big bird, flapped its wings and rose into the sky.

“Buzz——”

The clouds in the sky dispersed, opening a giant circular door surging with colorful flames, exuding a massive amount of magic elements.

Elemental plane?

Roja touched his chin and felt that the world on the other side of the door might be similar in nature to hell.

The flame bird roared, fluttered its wings and flew in before disappearing, but the door to the other world was not closed, and a large amount of elemental particles were still pouring out.

The leading cleric said: “From now on, all the mages on the list will come up in order, and the spirit of contract elements…”

The ceremony officially begins,

After his name was called, a young senior mage walked up, looking a little nervous and excited.

He stood on the altar, lowered his head and closed his eyes, clasped the wand in both hands and chanted a spell, and finally waved the wand and pointed it towards the sky.

“Boom!” The pure magic power burst out, turning into a beam of light and shooting into the elemental gate in the sky.

Everyone looked up.

A few seconds later, red light emerged from the elemental gate, and a red kitten composed of pure fire elements flew down from above and fell into the mage’s arms.

“It’s a first-level fire elemental spirit!”

“It’s pretty good. It’s better than nothing. Many people can’t succeed. He’s lucky…”

…The crowd below made some comments after seeing the kitten.

Roja then learned by reading the thoughts of the people around him that this elemental spirit was indeed a life born from a certain elemental plane.

It can be attracted by the magic power of the mage and then establish a contractual relationship with the caster. Its function is to greatly enhance the power of certain types of elemental spells.

In the past, there were even seventh-level great magisters who, through the strengthening of elemental spirits, cast super-level spells that were as destructive as forbidden spells.
