Chapter 116 The Failed Summoning Ritual
Chapter 116 The Failed Summoning Ritual
The two closed their eyes, as if they had traveled through time and space to a void.
Very strange.
According to ancient records, when communicating with deities, one could see their figures from afar.
They use power as a bridge to connect and transmit the power of the heart to each other.
It can even soothe the other person's emotions.
This is the case when communicating with deities such as Palkia and Dialga.
Of course, when a divine beast is extremely angry, if one's divine power is insufficient, one will be repelled by the storm of the divine beast's rage. Their ancestor, Damos, was very powerful and was able to withstand the astonishing power of the beast's rage and keep moving forward.
But in any case, at least we can see the figure of the god Al.
However, this is not the case when connecting with Arceus; all that can be seen is emptiness.
Strange, even with the Golden Radish's cooperation this time, why haven't we seen Arceus yet?
Of course, there is another possibility: they were too far away to see clearly and mistakenly thought Arceus was not there.
They hoped it was the second possibility.
"Luo Kai, let's use our full strength!"
Arceus's favorite golden radish is right here; if this doesn't work, then there will truly be no chance.
The audience below the stage were buzzing with discussion.
"Strange, why hasn't it responded for so long?"
"Shh, they're trying to communicate with the gods, it's not that simple. Just wait quietly."
"Chirp chirp chirp~" The blue cotton bird kept its newly bought phone pointed at the two people on the stage, feeling a little tired. Why hadn't it received any messages for so long?
Fang Zhou was secretly surprised. What exactly was going on?
The golden light in front of the two on the stage slowly disappeared, but Arceus did not appear. Even the mayor couldn't help but go up on stage to inquire about the situation.
"It's alright, Mayor, let's try one last time."
"Okay, thank you both." The mayor nodded and stepped down from the stage again, leaving professional matters to the professionals.
The two divine messengers looked at the other apprentices around them, "Come, all of you, come here and lend me your power!"
Just like in the movie, Sheena and Damos hold hands and concentrate their power on one person.
The apprentices nearby sprang into action, joining hands to connect their power to Luo Kai, and finally to Xina.
"Superpower!"
Sheena let out a roar, and everyone's power erupted instantly, emitting a dazzling light!
The next moment, Sheena re-entered the void.
Finally, this time it was different. A scene appeared before her eyes, but it made her scream out loud, her face full of horror and disbelief!
In the void, Arceus was surrounded by wisps of black mist, appearing to be in extreme pain.
The next moment, as if it had made up its mind, its body turned into tiny specks of light and disappeared!
At the same time, the eighteen stone slabs on his body fell off one after another, and some of them even shattered into pieces as they fell.
How is that possible!
Arceus is the creator god!
is invincible!
How could it possibly have perished!
No wonder I couldn't communicate with Arceus! No wonder I never received a response! No wonder the Spring Feast never brought Arceus down again!
Because Arceus has fallen!
"Dululu~"
The poisonous moths around the Ark appeared very uneasy.
"What's wrong with the whitefly moth?"
"Dululu~" The Poisonous Butterfly shook its head, indicating that it didn't know either. It only felt a strange sadness, and at the same time, it felt very familiar with the golden light that appeared on the stage.
On the stage, the ritual to summon the gods finally came to an end.
Sheena's eyes widened, devoid of any light, and she collapsed straight down, only to be quickly caught by those around her.
Clearly, what they just witnessed was something mortals could not bear to look at, and even those with the talent to communicate with the gods suffered immense physical damage.
The messenger who presided over the invocation ceremony fainted during the ceremony, which was a serious incident. The town mayor immediately arranged for someone to take the messenger to the hospital.
"I'm sorry, but due to special circumstances, the invocation ceremony for this spring banquet will have to end here. Please remain calm and do not panic."
The mayor tried his best to calm the people around him.
But a murmur of discussion still broke out below.
"Why did she suddenly faint? This girl looks quite robust."
"I thought I'd finally get to see Arceus, but alas, I never expected this."
"Has Arceus abandoned us humans? Why hasn't he shown up for so many years?!"
Fangzhou noticed that Robin had sat down next to him at some point, but her face was completely expressionless.
Robin, who always boasted of being omniscient, was asked curiously by Ark, "Do you know anything inside information? Why did the summoning of the god fail, and why did the divine messenger faint?"
Robin shook her head; she really didn't know that.
She said nonchalantly, "Whatever. If I can summon it, I can; if I can't, I can't. Look at all these people here. How many of them have actually witnessed Arceus's descent?"
That's true.
After the initial panic, everyone calmed down and resumed eating and drinking as usual, just like in previous years.
In any case, they never saw Arceus successfully summoned.
Robin asked curiously, "Tomorrow will be summer, what are your plans?"
As she sipped her juice, she said, "Hops can be planted in the summer and used to brew wine. It tastes very good, fragrant and delicious."
She swirled the juice in her glass as if it were fine wine, not juice.
"It would be even more perfect if it were chilled."
Fangzhou imagined enjoying a chilled beer brewed on his own estate on a hot summer day; it was indeed very pleasant.
Speaking of iced drinks, something came to mind.
Tomorrow he plans to visit Daigo and ask how the fin fossil can be revived.
The ice cellar can now be prepared for construction.
"You want to build an ice cellar? Sure, but it won't be cheap. It involves site selection, support, digging, and soil transportation. To prevent the cave from collapsing, we also need to take some safety measures. All in all, it will cost 80,000 Alliance Coins."
Fangzhou gasped; this was currently the most expensive building in the manor.
Fortunately, he still has 200,000 yuan in savings, and the estate continues to produce honey, otherwise he really wouldn't be able to afford to build it.
The spring banquet ended at 10:30 p.m. Fangzhou returned to the manor and, seeing that the system settlement was not yet at midnight, began to prepare other things.
"Here, Cocodora, try this." Ark made a small pendant out of the top-grade hard stone that the system rewarded after capturing Cocodora and put it on Cocodora's head.
Then I took out another rope, modified it a bit, put it on the bluebird, and tied a mobile phone to the end.
"This way you can hang your phone around your neck all the time and don't have to worry about losing it."
"Chirp chirp chirp~" The blue cotton bird chirped twice, looking quite pleased.
Finally, the clock struck twelve.
Spring ends, summer begins.
[System settlement begins]
