134: Chapter 85 Netti Card_2 134: Chapter 85 Netti Card_2 “?”
“What exactly is going on?”
Leon was confused by the attitude of Miss Mage.
But Lola did not continue to dwell on the aningless formalities with Leon.
“Alright, I have understood what this is all about, the thing that Aphrodite took such pains to create is indeed a masterpiece.
Although it doesn’t achieve the ultimate result she wanted in my view, it is undoubtedly very valuable to you.”
Saying this, Lola suggested, “While I can still guide you, would you like to give it a try?
I do hope that with this object, you can bring back to Rolannar sooner.”
Leon gave a wry smile, foggy-headed, “Miss Lola, please bear with the ignorance of a non-professional like …
May I be so bold as to ask what this card is actually for?”
Lola was not impatient, and explained very patiently, “Its prototype is a type of Magic Container, which can only store so simple magic.
But because of so otherworldly ideas soone had in the past, Aphrodite took that as inspiration, attempting to combine Magic Technique Study, Summoning Spirit, and alchemy, to create a Great Magic capable of summoning any concept that has ever existed in the world.
Put simply, this…
this…
hmm, never mind, let’s just na it after her surna for now.
This ‘Netti Card’ can, based on a specific condition as the dium, utilize the power of the Spirit Realm and the Dead Sea to bring forth into the world the Spiritual Body that the spellcaster desires.
But it is far more thorough than simply calling back the Undead from the Dead Sea; Aphrodite hoped to be able to peel individuals whose souls were dissipated into oblivion from upstream in the River of Ti, allowing them to return to the present world…”
As she spoke, Lola’s voice grew heavier.
“However, she ultimately failed…
She created a powerful ritual that I must admire, that even risked tainted forces and used the soul as the price, but this still fell far short of achieving her ultimate objective.”
Leon suddenly understood the key point that was most aningful to him, “I see, you an to say that this ‘Netti Card’ can summon Undead whose souls still linger?
This Magic Card is like so kind of Summoning Technique, that can revive certain Wandering Souls that had once existed?”
Lola replied, “Correct, with so modifications to the ritual, I should be able to make the summoned Undead Spiritual Body serve you.
However, since you have not studied magic, the Magic Elent within you cannot convert a lot of magic Power, and you won’t be able to sustain the existence of too powerful souls…
Hmm, let think…
If we use the vast Earth Vein Spiritual Power beneath the Mage Tower as a temporary solution,
then you would only be able to use this card at the Earth Vein nodes.”
Half-understanding, Leon listened and couldn’t help but interject, “Can anyone use this card?
How about Kovis’s Magic Power?
Could he summon more powerful souls?”
Lola said, “If I give the card to that boy, he can indeed maintain so relatively strong Wandering Souls, but you should think carefully, there is only one card right now.
In my haste, I can’t make the souls housed in the Netti Card serve both you and him at the sa ti, if I give the card to him, then you won’t be able to use it~…
By the way, do you really trust others so easily?”
“You saw for yourself, that kid didn’t want to involve us earlier, foolishly trying to divert the enemy on his own; with such character, why wouldn’t I trust him?
Moreover, he and I now have the bond of life and death; if I lend the card to him, wouldn’t he have to agree when I ask for his help?” Leon shook his head, not worried at all.
He also didn’t want, due to his limited capabilities, to prevent this Magic Item that sounded so impressive from reaching its fullest potential.
Summoning the Spiritual Body of an Undead to be a Summoned Demon seed very powerful; if it could only summon so riff-raff while in his hand, it would be better to let Kovis try summoning so formidable Wandering Souls.
Of course, this wasn’t without other considerations.
In Leon’s heart, he had already been nursing the idea of recruiting Kovis.
On this journey, he had suffered considerably at the hands of magic, and having a Magician consultant by his side would an he wouldn’t be without recourse should he face magic-related conflicts in the future.
Using the card as a ans to bind the young man to his side was a worthwhile exchange.
Miss Lora, though reliable, couldn’t possibly advise at every mont…
Hmm?
That’s not right, wait a mont…
summoning the Undead?
Leon felt like he almost missed out on the true potential of that artifact’s value.
“…If that child were to use the Netti Card, with the amount of Magic Power he could sustain, the body of the Fla Sun Guard you specifically brought over could co in handy, with both the body and spirit present.
In this way…”
Leon didn’t wait for her to finish, but carefully interjected, “Miss Lora, I hope you won’t find this offensive, you ntioned before that you have already passed away, right?
Then this Netti Card…
Can it…
summon you out from within ?”
Lora’s voice began to laugh lightly.
“Heh~, I thought you wouldn’t bring it up…”
Hearing her tone, Leon felt delighted, sensing there might be a chance.
He dared not entertain the thought of commanding her with this Magic Card.
After all, he still needed her to teach him how to use it, how to make the Undead loyal; Miss Mage was no fool.
How could she willingly deign to beco his “Summoned Demon.”
Leon simply felt, if he could get this mysterious and omnipotent Miss Mage to appear regularly and communicate with him, the help he would receive would far surpass that from any other Undead henchman.
Leon vividly rembered the terrifying commotion created by the illusion of Lady Aphrodite just monts ago.
And this “Lola Illaril” surely wouldn’t be much weaker than the Purple Robed Lady, whether she was her teacher or not.
“Summoning into this container…
is not impossible to try.
If the card left by Aphrodite was indeed intended to carry ‘her,’ then the material used should be strong enough to contain my spirit.”
Lora spoke as if eager to try, yet did not forget to warn him in the end: “But I must remind you, even if it’s possible to summon my Spiritual Body into this card from within you, neither that child outside the tower nor any Spellcaster you’ve ever t would possess the Magic Power to use this card of mine.
This ans that even if I could appear briefly with the aid of the Earth Vein Spiritual Power here, I’d still be unable to freely leave the area where the Spiritual Power of the tower converges.
You’d better think it through.”
“I’ve thought it through, Miss Lora.
Since this item originally belonged to Lady Aphrodite, it’s apt to be used on you, her old friend.
Besides, just conversing with you has already brought far greater help than anything else; if this realm is about to dissipate, who knows how difficult it would be to communicate with you in the outside world?” Leon’s words carried flattery, which was also the bare truth.
“Moreover, didn’t you say you’d be willing to teach Magic if there was an opportunity?
Well, now could be that ti, and I can start learning spells from you.”
He hardly hesitated.
With an excited heart, Leon followed Lora’s instructions to the fifth floor storage of the Mage Tower, where he found various ritual materials Miss Mage needed.
Then, from Lady Aphrodite’s workshop, he took the professional Magic Technique drafting tools and went up to the open tower top.
According to Miss Lora, the highest level of the Mage Tower was the place where energy could be manipulated most easily.
The tower top was specifically designed for casting spells.
Usually, when Mages build their towers, they would deliberately asure the intersections of the Magic Power vortices in the surroundings at great heights.
They would design this place in advance for the tower top’s construction, accounting both for safe magic casting and fitting most magic ritual principles.
The concepts of above and below are not just about orientation from one’s own perspective in various Magic Techniques…
Although he had yet to succeed in summoning Miss Lora, it felt to Leon as if he had already learned a lesson.
Under Miss Mage’s careful guidance, he silently crafted the necessary Magic Techniques for the ritual, following the complex Magic Technique-Rune diagrams on the drawings with the professional tools from the workshop.
