I Can Summon All the Gods-Chapter 1

At the westernmost end of Icacia Continent, a convoy of more than 20 people was slowly moving forward. There were only three carriages. Someone was in one of the carriages, and the other two were full of goods.

However, such a team was conspicuous and luxurious in the desolate and barren border of Naton County. Especially when civilians saw the four knights riding tall and jujube red horses with shields and swords in front of the convoy, their eyes were full of respect.

“Uncle Kotter, when will we arrive?”

In the carriage, the young man put down the magic book, opened the curtain of the carriage, and asked the middle-aged knight.

The young man was about 16 or 17 years old. He wore a simple black robe, and his angular and handsome face looked somewhat pure. His eyes were somewhat deep, and there was a touch of indifference after experiencing vicissitudes of life.

After withdrawing the reins, Kotter Harlan shrank the distance between him and the carriage and reported respectfully, “Master Locke, it’s only half an hour’s drive away from Lister. It will take about an afternoon to reach your castle.”

“Okay, thank you, Uncle Kotter.”

Hearing that there was only half an hour to go to his territory of Lister, Locke Capet nodded his head.

“It’s our honor.”

Kotter replied sincerely and respectfully. He didn’t show any disrespect to the master, who was called the most useless person by other nobles in Naton County.

When he saw the magic book beside Locke, he couldn’t help but sigh in his heart. Master Locke was such a nice person! Why did God have to be so cruel and let him have no magical talent! 𝗳𝔯𝙚e𝒘e𝚋𝘯𝚘ν𝙚l.𝑐o𝙢

Thinking of the dilapidated residential quarters he had seen along the way, Kotter sighed even more.

Although he felt sorry for Locke, he was not distracted at all. He was on full alert. According to his observation of the surrounding environment, there might be groups of beasts here.

Sitting back in the carriage, Locke read the magic book, shook his head helplessly, and put it back on the shelf. There were more than a dozen books about magic on the shelf. The pages were slightly rolled up, which were flipped through often.

There was only half an hour left before they arrived at Locke’s territory. He didn’t want to continue reading and decided to have a rest.

He put hands at the back of his head and leaned against the carriage, lost in thought.

16 years… He had been in this world for 16 years.

Yes, Locke was not from this world, but from the Earth.

In the past 16 years, Locke had basically known about the world.

This world was very similar to medieval Europe, where there were many kingdoms. The difference was that there were many extraordinary existences of power in this world.

There were mages, destroying mountains and forests instantly.

There were guardians of holy light and the noble and loyal holy knights.

There were swordsmen, with a sword in hand, killing the demons powerfully in the whole world.

There were also some powerful warriors, breaking stones by strength.

…

In addition to these professions, there were also all kinds of strange creatures, such as dragons, phoenixes, elves, demons and so on.

All in all, this was a world extremely similar to the Earth but filled with extraordinary power.

In his previous life, Locke was obsessed with the career of a mage in online games. When he knew that mages existed in this world, he was extremely excited.

Relying on the wisdom of adults, Locke was able to write when he was three years old and outperformed his peers in terms of intelligence. He was good at learning the magic theories and could even draw inferences about other cases from one instance. Soon, he won the honor of “the number one genius in Naton County”.

However, fate played a big joke on Locke. When he was tested at six years old, the magic crystal in front of Locke did not respond. This meant that Locke’s magic talent was zero and he couldn’t become a mage!

Locke also fell from heaven to hell and became a laughing stock of Naton County.

Since the achievements of the mage were limited, Count Capet wanted to train his son to be a knight like him.

But as an earthling of the 21st century, how could Locke give in so easily? Regardless of the resistance of Count Capet, he had learned stubbornly the magic for ten years. In the end, he failed in the magic and missed the best time of the knight practice.

Locke’s reputation as a loser gradually spread in the noble circles around the Capet family.

Helplessly, Count Capet managed to ask for a baron title for Locke through his connections. The fief was Lister which was barren and deserted and no one wanted.

It was well-known that Lister was poor. Locke wouldn’t be envied if he got such a fief through some connections.

Although the fief was not good, it was at least a title of baron. Count Capet gritted his teeth and let Locke come over.

Damn it! Locke could feel the magic element and absorb them into his body. Why was his body always like a funnel and couldn’t keep magic element!

Locke couldn’t help but clench his fists at the thought of the situation that had happened to him every time. His eyes were full of unwillingness and loneliness.

Half an hour later, Locke felt the carriage stop.

“Master, we have arrived at Lister.”

The voice of Kotter came in the carriage.

Locke walked out of the carriage and saw the scene in front of the carriage. Even with his composure, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

The surface of the giant stone, which could be called barely a boundary tablet, was pitted as if it could break apart at any time. The word “Lister” on the boundary tablet had already been eroded by the wind and rain, blurry and invisible. Only a few marks of the knife were left, and a few letters could be barely seen.

Behind the boundary tablet, there were withered plants and sparse trees. Such a desolate scene showed the barrenness to the fullest.

What was more horrible was that the whole world was so quiet that there was even no sound of birds or beasts.

Fortunately, Locke had a strong ability to accept the fact. He suppressed his depression and said to everyone with a smile, “From now on, this is our home. Cheer up, everyone. I believe that we can build up Lister with our own hands!”

“We also believe that under the leadership of Master Locke, Lister will become better!”

With a smile on his face, Kotter replied with approval.

The two’s words cheered up the others.

After a short pause, the convoy began to move forward again. The carriages creaked.

“Ding~”

“I have detected that host has arrived at the territory, and the system of gods has been activated!”

“To reward the host for activating the system successfully, you will be rewarded with a big gift bag for newbies. Do you want to open the system now to receive the reward?”

As soon as the carriage passed the border tablet, Locke heard a continuous and cold mechanical sound.

In the carriage, Locke’s body trembled and his heart almost jumped out of his chest.

Yes, he just heard the voice of the system!

Locke’s eyes widened and his breath quickened. As a young man who had read all kinds of time travel novels in the 21 century, he was too clear about what these voices meant!

The golden finger, which he had waited for 16 years, appeared!

At this moment, Locke wanted to shout to the sky to vent his depression, resentment, and humiliation in the past 16 years! But he held it back in the end. If he did so, he would be doubted by Kotter and others whether he was crazy or not.

“Open the system!”

Locke took a few deep breaths and tried to calm himself down. His trembling voice was full of uncontrollable excitement.
