Chapter 1418: Chapter 588: The Third Summoning Altar_2
[Seventh-tier·Summoning Altar]
[Quality: Ordinary]
[Usable Tis: 1/1]
[Offerings: 0%]
This is an unused summoning altar, but it’s only of ordinary quality, which ans it can only be used once, and the offerings are zero.
It seems that only humans can use the summoning altar, as these mutant rats are unable to activate it, so it remains brand new.
With this one, Wang Tao already has 3 summoning altars, all of them seventh-tier.
The first summoning altar is of excellent quality, but it can only be summoned once. Wang Tao has already prepared the offerings to 100%, ready to summon that so-called “Stone God” at any ti.
The second summoning altar is of epic quality, currently able to summon 4 tis, with the offerings also at 100%, ready to summon the “Fire God”.
Both of these summoning altars were used by others; Wang Tao just picked up the leftovers.
Now this is the third summoning altar; it can only be summoned once, it’s unused, the offerings are zero, and it’s unclear what can be summoned from it.
Wang Tao was previously eager to try, thinking about summoning sothing after reaching Level 6. But now… he thinks it’s better to plan for the long term.
Because ascending from Level 6 to Seventh Level is much harder than he imagined, and the power at Seventh Level is definitely much stronger than Level 6. Wang Tao feels that with his current strength, he can’t even defeat a Seventh Order Lord, let alone sothing two levels higher than Lord Rank, the Destruction Level, so he definitely can’t rush.
“First let’s prepare its offerings, there are plenty of zombies here…”
Wang Tao imdiately set the summoning altar back on the ground, brought the zombies over, and threw them onto the altar, then activated the summoning altar.
These zombies were instantly trapped inside it, and after 24 hours, they would all turn into offerings.
Although there were many zombies in the forest, according to Wang Tao’s experience, this was obviously not enough for 100% offerings; more zombies would need to be brought over later. However, it was no big deal; sacrificing these zombies would do for now.
As Wang Tao activated the summoning altar, he suddenly heard a faint call.
“Wang Tao… Wang Tao…”
This voice sounded like a strange language; Wang Tao couldn’t understand it. But oddly enough, Wang Tao felt as though it was calling him…
He imdiately turned his head, looking towards the summoning altar not far away.
“It’s not an illusion, the voice ca from the altar! Is this… trying to lure ?”
This raised Wang Tao’s eyebrows.
Aside from him, others couldn’t see the summoning altar’s attributes unless soone who had used the summoning altar inford another user about the specifics. Otherwise, those who use the summoning altar for the first ti are first lured by the summoning altar.
Wang Tao was curious as to how this summoning altar would lure him.
So, Wang Tao entered the range of the summoning altar.
The calling voice was imdiately clearer.
“Wang Tao… Wang Tao… Wang Tao…”
Wang Tao imdiately walked towards the center of the altar.
The entity inside the summoning altar shouldn’t have the ability to hurt him, but just to be safe, Wang Tao still maintained a significant level of caution.
“Believe in , and I will grant you infinite strength… Believe in , and I will grant you infinite strength…”
After arriving at the center of the altar, the voice got straight to the point, and its voice had an icy edge, making Wang Tao feel an inexplicable chill.
“Who are you?”
Wang Tao asked directly.
“You may call … Ice God!”
Ice God? Clearly, this was a monster proficient in the Ice System. Combining the fact that its speech made one feel cold, Wang Tao deepened his understanding of its abilities—this was definitely not sothing he could win against at his current stage!
However, the opponent couldn’t co over; it was just pretending to be mysterious, and now Wang Tao wasn’t afraid of it. So Wang Tao asked again:
“How will you give strength? How much strength will you give ?”
“You must first believe in …”
The voice spoke leisurely, its inherently cold tone making it appear deeply mysterious and imposing.
“How do I believe in you?”
“You only need to sign a contract with , and you can beco my believer, and I will grant you infinite power…”
As he spoke, sothing resembling a parchnt floated out from the center of the Summoning Altar and landed in front of Wang Tao. It was inscribed with ghostly talisman-like text, indecipherable to him.
The voice seed aware that Wang Tao couldn’t understand, and kindly reminded him:
“Use your HP, ignite the contract… Use your HP, ignite the contract…”
This parchnt exuded a cold, mysterious, and powerful aura, making Wang Tao feel strangely drawn to it, as if signing the contract would indeed grant him infinite power.
Wang Tao quickly shook his head, diverting his gaze from the contract.
No wonder others are easily tempted, even soone as willful and prepared as Wang Tao subconsciously took a half step forward. If it were soone less determined, they would have probably signed it already.
Naturally, Wang Tao wouldn’t just do as instructed, because in his eyes, this contract had a na—[Contract: Slavery]
[Control over the signatory’s life and death]
Clearly, signing this contract ant that his life and death would be controlled by the “Ice God.”
So Wang Tao continued asking:
“What will I lose after signing the contract?”
“…”
The Ice God appeared not to expect Wang Tao’s calmness. It paused for a mont before speaking again gently:
“Becoming my believer, you will not lose anything, instead, you will gain infinite power…”
“I don’t believe it.”
“…”
“My mother has always taught that there’s no such thing as a free lunch. Even if there were, it wouldn’t be my turn. So, this kind of thing where I can gain power without any cost must be a trap!”
After saying this, Wang Tao turned and walked away without any hesitation.
“…Wait!”
The Ice God finally seed a bit unsettled.
Each of Wang Tao’s responses was beyond its expectations.
Was this human’s willpower really so strong? Or was it because it had not worked in a long ti, causing so rustiness in its professional skills?
“Is there anything else? My mom is calling ho for dinner.”
Wang Tao spoke impatiently.
He initially ca in curiosity upon hearing the call, wanting to encounter this so-called “God,” because knowing more now would make dealing with it easier later.
Then Wang Tao realized that this entity was much smarter than he had anticipated, capable of seamless communication.
So, it was clearly a good opportunity to gather more useful information from it, thus deliberately being unconventional to provoke it.
Of course, Wang Tao could also learn from the “Stone God” and “Fire God” during summoning, but it seems they rembered Wang Tao and didn’t have a good impression of him. It might not be possible to communicate properly, so this newfound “Ice God” seed more appropriate…
“…”
The Ice God fell silent again.
Although it said nothing, Wang Tao could feel the surrounding air suddenly beco much colder.
This made Wang Tao even more cautious.
“This monster is indeed powerful! Not only does its speech co with special effects, but its mood can even lower the temperature here…”
This ability had completely exceeded Wang Tao’s understanding.
However, the Ice God didn’t lose its temper; it was not easy to co across such a sacrifice, and it was eager to proceed sooner.
“You are very smart; I like smart people. To gain infinite power, a price indeed must be paid. The cost is, you need to fill the altar with offerings. As long as the offerings are sufficient, I will grant you infinite power… This price should be easy for you. Hurry, use your HP, ignite the contract…”
The Ice God’s voice, embedded with a chilly effect, slowly continued.
“I knew there couldn’t be no cost!” Wang Tao said in an ‘I knew it’ manner, then shook his head decisively, “No deal.”
“…”
