Mystic Overlord: Reading Gives Strength-Chapter 473 - 470: Verifying the Outcome of the Battle

Ronald suppressed his impulse to take immediate action.

The urgent push to proceed with the experiment and the injury that Mr. Xiang had sustained served as a warning alarm, and Ronald was not inclined to see any further recklessness.

He glanced at Mou Li, who was intently focused beside him and asked a fairly obscure question:

"Mou Li, if the casters from Salaman do use the same spell to summon a high-level demon, will the same demon appear each time?"

Mou Li, truly a caster from the "Book Research Society."

No sooner had Ronald asked the question than she very confidently replied:

"If the summoned being is indeed powerful, the same one will appear. Just like this Salaman caster here, whom he should have summoned... wait a moment, Ronald, have you encountered this demon before?"

After saying a couple of sentences, Mou Li immediately realized the possibility implied in Ronald’s words.

Turning to look at the man beside her, her gaze changed instantly, and her demeanor shifted towards solemnity and authority.

Was this the kind of personality state she had seen before?

Ronald noticed Mou Li’s change and nodded naturally in response:

"Indeed, it was an enemy I encountered back in Burlington. At the time, this demon was actively serving as a subordinate of the ’Nine Commandments Secret Society.’"

"..."

Mou Li looked at Ronald for a few seconds.

Confident that the man in front of her was not lying, a subtle yet powerful magic fluctuation suddenly emerged from her:

"I am trying to demonstrate ’Dream Analysis’ here and I believe in doing so, I am not overstepping the bounds of neuropathology..."

Softly reciting her spell to activate it, Mou Li also slightly adjusted her stance toward the center of the hall. The bending of her torso and knee joints were all adjustments made in anticipation of impact.

"Be careful, Ronald."

"One can’t be directly certain about these things, but it’s still wise to prepare defenses."

In the audience seats, Ronald and the group from the "Book Research Society" were quietly making preparations, yet they failed to draw much attention from other casters.

There was no helping it; this night, the castle of White Shore was teeming with casters.

Everywhere one looked, enigmatic practitioners using spells could be spotted, busy observing various phenomena or engaging in exchanges, which caused such overt acts to be unconsciously overlooked by those present.

Meanwhile, the Salaman caster continued his endeavors.

Having completed his summoning, he immediately commanded Lama to stand in the center of the arena. As a caster who could summon such a formidable demon, he looked around the arena with natural arrogance.

"Ladies and gentlemen, as you can see, this is the strongest creature I have summoned."

"If anyone doubts this result, feel free to step into the arena and test it for yourself. I have absolute confidence in my spells!"

Observing the Salaman caster’s demeanor, and combining the feedback from the power of "Fury."

Ronald conceived a thought.

Perhaps he was overthinking, and this caster in the arena merely came as a scholar up for discussion, with Lama summoned solely due to the inherent attributes of the school’s spells.

After all, an organization like the "Nine Commandments Secret Society."

Would have no reason to be involved at such a time...

"My elemental fire is definitely stronger than your demon, and since you’ve made such bold claims, I must now put them to the test!"

At that moment, another female caster in the arena spoke up.

She seemed quite dissatisfied with the arrogance of the Salaman caster, and her words carried a distinctly aggressive tone.

Faced with the challenge from his debate opponent, the Salaman caster shrugged nonchalantly in response: "Madam Eveli, I know you are a renowned master who finds it hard to accept such reality."

"But a strong entity is ultimately strong."

"If you feel discontented, you can naturally let these two summoned creatures compete with any means, but the result won’t be any different."

"..."

"Hmph—"

Faced with Salaman’s provocation, the caster named Eve responded with a cold laugh.

"You’re thinking too much. I’m not planning on using mere combat power to test the strength of the summoned creatures. For this situation, measuring the magic essence of the summoning is the most accurate decisive data."

"Then, suit yourself."

After the exchange of words, Salaman confidently watched the opposite side.

The summoning master named Eve then immediately began chanting a spell.

Being called a master, the caster naturally had some skills, and in just a couple of breaths, she completed her spell to check the summoned creatures.

At that moment,

centered around the castle hall, a faint wind of magic power blew past.

Whether it was the Flame Spirit summoned by Eve or the Demon Rame summoned by Salaman, at the moment the breeze passed, a special magic fluctuation burst forth from them.

This magic fluctuation was not harmful, nor would it interfere with the normal casters.

Its sole ability was to reflect whether the summoned creatures were powerful or not.

The result was very clear.

Although both were extremely powerful creatures, the magic fluctuation from Demon Rame was noticeably higher than that of the Flame Spirit; there was no doubt that, in terms of summoning spells, Eve was defeated.

However, at this moment...

Probably no one cared about the outcome of such a competition.

Because even if the intensity of the magic fluctuations from Demon Rame and the Flame Spirit were added up and then multiplied several times over, they still could not compare to an incredibly powerful magic fluctuation present in the field.

The source of this magic fluctuation

was Ronald, who was standing in the spectators’ area.

"..."

Although everyone present looked completely stunned, they uniformly turned their gaze towards Ronald.

After all, they were all seasoned individuals from the mystical side.

They also understood the normal level of spells, and what the standard for summoned creatures was.

The ability to completely overshadow the summoned creatures of Eve and Salaman by such a degree indicated something everyone was clear about.

"Is... is this gentleman?"

At this moment, Eve spoke up.

Being an unquestionable authority on summoning magic, she understood the reliability of her spells and automatically completed in her mind what she thought was the most likely scenario.

"Could you... can you call out the possessing spirit within you, for everyone to see—"

"Is it you? Ronald!"

At that instant, the call of the demon interrupted the caster’s dialogue.

At this moment, Demon Rame also recognized Ronald, who had originally mingled among the crowd. Instantly breaking free from Salaman’s summoning contract, it shouted and flew to the top of the castle hall.

"You dare to foil our plans again?"

Immediately, the magic power from the demon drastically spread out.

Activating a magical formation that had long been buried underground in the castle!
