Wang: "Flint, do you have the power of telepathy? Use it on him."

Flint: “Understood.”

He took out the holy symbol and gestured, and Cosette gained temporary telepathic abilities.

This spell is sometimes used for torture, because when being tortured, the person being tortured may accidentally reveal his true feelings through telepathy.

But Cosette was clearly well-trained. As soon as he gained telepathic abilities, he angrily rebuked the Savior Team: "You actually took the initiative to attack the friendly Olympian Union that wanted to help you! If the news leaks out, you will be in trouble! Just wait, the Savior Team will soon become the target of public criticism!"

Wang: "Don't be ridiculous. You were planning to kidnap Elizabeth and me. I heard it clearly."

Cosette: "I cast an anti-detection spell!"

Wang: "I didn't use magic, but the technology left by the Cyclops. As long as you enter the underground ruins, I can monitor you from all angles."

The prerequisite is to place the hand on the crystal ball which serves as the control center. Of course, the king will not tell this to Cosette.

Seeing that he couldn't refute it, Ksette stopped pretending: "Humph, we do have such a plan, but it's just a backup plan. If we are happy to cooperate with you, we won't need it."

Wang: "I think that using your equipment to defeat the cult can be considered a form of cooperation. You guys have specially prepared so many scrolls of controlling humans in order to control me to flip through the books. I don't think we can use up all these scrolls of controlling humans even if we tear them apart until the cult is destroyed."

Cosette: "You don't think that if you destroy my triggering and chain triggering skills, you will be safe, right?"

Wang: "Did you really prepare a spell that uses both the super magic skills of fixed and silent casting? But using these two skills at the same time will increase the magic level. You are only an eighth-level magician. What kind of magic can you cast?"

Cosette: "Indeed, no one would prepare a magic that possesses both of these supermagics, but have you forgotten that I am a wizard from the Union of Arcane Laws?"

Minsk exclaimed, "He's going to take spells from the shared spell pool of the Union of Arcane Magic! He can just cast those spells!"

Cosette: "High-level alien oath binding!"

A burning ring-shaped wall of fire suddenly appeared on the floor in front of Cosette. Inside the wall of fire was a magic circle based on a pentagram. Then something like living grease grew out from the center of the pentagram, and in the blink of an eye it condensed into a bright red creature with horns and wings.

The king immediately determined what the thing summoned by the Otherworldly Oath was: "Devil! This is a devil!"

The creatures summoned by the Higher-Level Alien Oath must complete a task assigned by the caster in exchange for their freedom.

Cosette: "I command you to restore my ability to cast spells!"

Summon the devil to restore your spellcasting ability. As long as the spellcasting ability is restored, you will have the capital to fight back.

I can only say that Ksette had a good plan.

But he missed one point.

Wang: “Hey, it’s you.”

The summoned devil ignored his summoner and turned to look at Wang: "It's you! Good boy! How dare you summon me?"

Wang: "No, it was you who was summoned over there. Not me. I am only at the fourth level, and I can't perform the eighth level of advanced alien oath binding."

Yes, Ksette forgot that the king was the child brought up by the Devil Archduke.

Chapter 229 The Devil’s Trick

Cosette was very surprised: "What's going on?"

The summoned devil raised an eyebrow, "Oh? Why is this guy talking telepathically? Oh, you silenced him, didn't you, kid!"

The devil shook his head and said, "It's still that little bad guy with a head full of evil ideas."

Flint: "Wait, full of evil ideas?"

Devil: "How long have you been traveling with him?"

Flint hesitated for a moment. After all, this was a question from the devil. There might be a trap hidden in it. However, such a simple question should not hide any big traps. Thinking this way, Flint replied: "It's almost half a year. It should be half a year after autumn."

Devil: "Then you should know his nature. This guy is the one who gives his opponent a laxative before a duel with a mage. He uses the prophecy spell to predict who he will face today and gives the drug in advance. As long as his opponent is taller than him, he will do this to him."

Wang: "You're right. I can beat people who are only one ring higher than me normally. I've even beaten a senior brother who is three rings higher than me."

Devil: "Yes, by building momentum in advance, using rhetoric and disguise, pretending to be your teacher to surprise test the students, confusing the other party's mind and betting on the other party's spell failure, this is not a fair way to win."

Flint: "Wait, even if the opponent fails to cast the spell, how are you going to win?"

Wang: "Use the back projection. Because I was facing the teacher's face, his protective spells failed one after another, and I threw him off the duel table. It turns out that mages still need to exercise their wrist strength."

Flint: "I thought you had muscles for picking up human girls."

Compared to the average thin wizard, Wang has a very strong physique. This was actually discovered by the members of the rescue team at the very beginning of the adventure.

Wang: "I told you, we even have a professor in the tower who specializes in boxing."

Devil: "That old man with the iron fist, say hello to him for me."

Xette couldn't hold back any longer: "Devil! I summoned you to do things for me. Don't you want to be free?"

Because it was telepathy, his extreme anger was also conveyed through his thoughts.

The devil ignored Cosette and turned to ask Wang: "Isn't this your classmate? It seems that he didn't learn devil studies well."

Wang nodded: "The first sentence of the introduction to demonology: 'Never believe that you can perfectly restrain the devil, but let the devil produce 'such an expansion will be more beneficial to you', so that it will actively abide by the contract.'

"'Demonology is the science of dealing with demons.'"

The devil snapped his fingers and said, "You have recited well. You are as familiar with the contents of the book as ever."

Cosette: "What do you mean? Are you saying that the devil will break an oath?"

Devil: "Huh, do you think we are the unsteady ones like the Paladins? No, the devil never breaks his oath. If I accept your mission, I will definitely remove all the shackles on you. But, your mission is too casual, so I will accept it. Do you understand?"

Wang: "What he meant is that he has ten thousand ways to circumvent the contract conditions you gave."

"Not that many," the devil interrupted the king, "at most a thousand."

Cosette looked confused: "But this spell..."

Wang: "You should have used the eighth-level monster summoning spell. It's an eighth-ring spell. The summoned monster won't remove the restrictions on you, but we still have to fight for a while. After all, our female team member is not here now, and we are missing..."

The king paused, raised an eyebrow, and changed the topic: "It's not that much less firepower, just one less Marika. Although Nini is very accurate with the bow and arrow, her combat effectiveness is still a little lower than Marika's."

Flint: "Okay, Master Li Guang is here. No matter what the Eight-ring Monster summons, it can't be a match for Master Li Guang."

Wang: "That's right. So, summoning the devil seems to be the best solution. Summoning the devil may not necessarily restore your ability to cast spells. After all, look at you now, your hands are tied, your mouth is silenced, and you don't have any spellcasting materials or equipment on you. You don't even have a fig leaf.

"The devil could probably solve all the problems with a snap of his fingers, turning you into the terrifying Eighth Ring Mage again in one step. After all, we have no way to erase the spells you have prepared. I know there is a spell that can do this, but I still can't cast it."

Minsk and Ksette were both shocked, and simultaneously exclaimed and telepathically said, "Is there such a spell?"

Devil: "Yes, the king's teacher can do it."

Wang: "That's not important. The old man is not here. Let's get back to the current situation, Cosette. You actually used such a simple restriction to make the devil work for you. Isn't it common sense to sign a contract to negotiate with the devil?"

Devil: "That's right. You should at least limit the ways I can achieve your conditions. I can remove all the restrictive spells on you, cut the ropes on you, and then take back all your confiscated equipment and put it on you.

“For a devil like me, it’s a snap of the fingers thing.

"But I can also turn you into a beauty-hating demon, which also has the ability to cast spells. That guy also has the ability to cast spells, so he can be considered to have restored his ability to cast spells."

Wang: "You are a devil, but you turn people into demons. It's really a bad taste."

The devil and the demon are mortal enemies. The bloody battle between them has been going on for thousands of years. When the devil and the demon meet, one of them must die.

Even Wang's uncle and junior uncle could not put the summoned devils and demons together.

When Wang was a child, every time he finished his care period with the Devil Archduke and before handing over the baton to the Succubus Queen to feed her, his teacher would stay with him for a while first. This would allow the devil's aura on Wang to dissipate. Otherwise, the Succubus Queen would most likely not be able to suppress her inner hostility and strangle the Wang to death.

However, the Devil Grand Duke does not hate the aura of the Succubus Queen Kulanoti at all. After all, compared to the chaotic demons, the devils are lawful and more rational.

They would pour a glass of fine wine and taste it while smelling the scent of their mortal enemy.

The devil in front of the king laughed loudly: "Really? I think this suggestion is great. This is your first loophole, the caster. The second loophole is that you did not set a time limit for me to complete the commission. How could you miss such an important thing? I can watch the king torture you until he is satisfied."

Wang: "We don't intend to torture him, we just intend to control him with the spell of controlling humans, and then let him reveal all the secrets of the Union of Arcane Law.

"For example, how does he cast spells? I originally thought that the shared spell pool of the Union of Arcane Magic was... a more restricted existence, but I didn't expect that he could cast an eighth-level spell without hand gestures or spells."

At this time, Minsk spoke up: "Because these spells have been cast, and then they are stored in the shared spell pool."

Wang: "How is this achieved? Our Mage Tower doesn't have any more detailed records."

Minsk: "It is equivalent to a shared trigger spell. If the mages of the Union want to join this spell pool, they need to deposit a part of their soul in the underground of the Union, so that the spells can be projected through the soul as a medium."

Wang: “You know it very well.”

"I just made my own guess. You should ask him for the details."

Wang looked at Ksette and said, "I admit, I am interested. Since the Union of Arcane Magicians can build such a shared magic pool, we should be able to copy one. Maybe the report written by copying the shared magic pool of the Union of Arcane Magicians can be published in this year's academic journal."

At this time, the devil showed a devilish smile: "Then you have to discuss it with me carefully. After all, I only need to snap my fingers and your plan will be ruined."

The king looked at the devil and said, "Are you going to sign a magic contract with me under these circumstances?"

Devil: "Why not? I will help you obtain the secrets of the Union of Arcane Law, and your price is just a few souls."

Wang: "The second rule of the introduction to demonology is: 'Do not sign a contract offered by the devil.'

"I'm very good at demonology."

Devil: "Then I can only snap my fingers..."

Wang: "Master Li Guang!"

The next moment, Li Guang appeared in front of the devil and punched the devil in the abdomen: "Penetration force!"

A stream of true energy poured into the devil's body.

The devil laughed: "You are still as decisive as ever, young master! But I have a feeling that you will deal with us often in the future. Goodbye!"

The next moment, the devil disappeared.

Flint: "Did you miss a step to pronounce the real name? King, you should know the real name of this devil, right?"

Wang: "The devil is very cunning. Even if you know his real name, he has various ways to bypass the restrictions of his real name."

Flint, Minsk, and Ksette exclaimed together, "Can it be bypassed?"

Gotrek: "Gao?"

King: "Yes. The devil can, but for the demon, even if you know its real name, you have to kill it twice."

He turned to Cosette and said, "Can you use one more spell from your shared arcane pool?"

Minsk: "No, he used an eighth-level spell. He must return an eighth-level spell within a week before he can use the shared spell pool again."

The king came to Cosette and said, "My goodness, I am more interested in your shared arcane pool. Can you tell me the secret of this thing? How is it achieved?"
