Hogwarts Summoning Guide

More than a dozen kagune sprouted from the back of the ogre king, each as thick as an ordinary person's thigh, resembling an octopus stretching out its limbs, somewhat similar to Hastur's octopus monster. However, these kagune were merely energy substances emitted from mysterious organs on the ogre's back, unpredictable and extremely powerful.

The kagune are dark brown tentacles that do indeed shimmer with mottled iridescent light, even some of them are dazzling. They completely defy the laws of physics and can change shape at will, yet their ends are incredibly hard, comparable to divine weapons.

The Demon Blade Princess was the first to engage the Ogre King. Her movements were extremely fast; ordinary people could only see a blur. Her extra-long katana created a protective barrier of blades, from which more than ten sword energies burst forth, meeting one of the Ogre King's kagune.

The sword energy was like a smoke ring hitting a shockwave, instantly shattered by the kagune. The end of the kagune had already transformed into a huge axe blade, cleaving down, or rather smashing down, towards the face of the Demon Blade Princess. With that kind of momentum, if it hit her solidly, the Demon Blade Princess would probably be stuck to the ground and unable to be pried off.

Yaodao-hime decisively dodged to the side, but the kagune seemed to have its own consciousness, swinging half a circle in the air and chasing after Yaodao-hime.

With a twist of her body, Jorogumo flew into the air. A thick spider silk on her back connected her to the stalactites on the stone top, which was tens of meters high. A white tissue grew from her back, twisting and turning into a spindle that made people want to lose their appetite.

The attacking kagune slammed heavily onto the ground, creating a large crater in the hard rock. Jorogumo immediately sprayed out dozens of sticky white spider silk threads, which tightly bound the kagune.

Meanwhile, the one-eyed monk-like Qingfangzhu let out a loud shout, his body growing to over four meters tall as if inflated. He slammed down the giant demon-subduing pestle in his hand to meet the incoming kagune. The weapons clashed, producing a deafening roar that would have made it impossible for an ordinary person to stand.

Fujiwara Ichiura charged straight at the ogre king like a ghost. His two kagune transformed into long spikes, but when they struck him, they were like chopsticks catching an eel. Sparks of chaotic purple energy flew from the point of impact, but this did not stop his forward momentum.

Just as Fujiwara Ichiura, moving with lightning speed, broke through the attack net formed by the ogre king's seven or eight kagune and rushed in front of him, the huge monster suddenly opened its mouth wide in front of Fujiwara Ichiura. Fujiwara Ichiura looked up and was immediately frightened. The monster's long tongue and long sharp teeth had turned into kagune, blooming in its mouth like a flower, and covering Fujiwara Ichiura like an umbrella.

Chaotic power erupted from Fujiwara Ichiura's body. Without any warning, he unleashed his signature move: the Cursed Spell. A ball of evil fire instantly ignited from the ogre king's chest, the flames rapidly engulfing the monster's head.

On the other side, Bai Lin quickly emerged from the waterway. Ahead was a relatively narrow underground stone passage, like a hole chewed out of the rock by a giant sandworm. The temperature was also much higher, and it seemed that lava was not far away from the passage.

He glanced at the team's SAN value. Although it was dropping slowly, he dared not let his guard down. He didn't know if dropping it any further would affect his thinking and reaction. He could only lead his teammates to continue accelerating and rushing deeper into the earth's core.

The encyclopedia kept popping up warnings, indicating that they were getting closer and closer to the source of corruption and that continuing would pose a great danger. However, they were already in a difficult situation. Fujiwara Ichiura and Gracoa's intentions were quite clear: if they were not stopped today, thousands of ogres might appear on the eastern lands tomorrow.

The enormous rumbling sound from deep underground had already reached Bai Lin's ears through the stone passage. It seemed that some super-powerful creatures were fighting a decisive battle underground. He was both happy and anxious. He was happy that Fujiwara Ichiura had not succeeded yet, but anxious that he could not directly teleport there and destroy Fujiwara Ichiura's chrysanthemum!

Dozens of emerald green eyes faintly lit up in the darkness ahead. A large group of demons emerged from the cracks in the rocks, howling as they rushed toward Bai Lin's figure, wanting to tear him to pieces. They were spies left behind by Fujiwara Ichiura along the way.

Bai Lin was extremely anxious. How could he tolerate these little devils? He unleashed sword energy that could reach twenty or thirty meters in a matter of minutes, and the demons were cleaved in two from a great distance. Before they could even scream, their souls were sent to their deaths.

Graccia glared ahead. Fujiwara Ichiura had already fought the ogre king for dozens of rounds. The cursed fire not only failed to burn the monster to ashes, but also thoroughly enraged it. Countless kagune transformed into countless deadly weapons, forcing the three powerful shikigami to retreat repeatedly. Fujiwara Ichiura was clearly not getting the better end of the deal either.

Gracchus, of course, noticed the enemy intrusion into his territory. Being attacked from both sides enraged him. He coldly shouted, pointing to the passage behind him, and said to Fujiwara Eiko, "Take your men and clear out these rats!"

Fujiwara Eko and the mages of the Ship of Light were terrified by the battle ahead. Although they were all somewhat psychologically twisted, even Fujiwara Ichiura, who had always worshipped the gods, seemed to be suppressed in the face of thousands of ogres. This made their obsession waver. Upon hearing Gracua's order, Fujiwara Eko gritted her teeth and led her subordinates back into the underground stone passage.

"Those who block my way shall die!" Bai Lin roared in the stone path, his forward momentum unaffected. He slaughtered the demons and weaker shikigami along the way as if they were melons and vegetables. When a dazzling multicolored light seemed to appear ahead and the sounds of battle became clear, he knew that his destination was not far away.

"A Grand Array of Ten Million Souls!" A woman's voice came from the darkness ahead. Immediately afterward, a patch of eerie blue flames ignited in the air, instantly forming a strange and terrifying array.

Countless ghosts suddenly surged out of the formation, just like the opening of the Gate of the Underworld in historical fragments.

Some of these souls are skeletal, wearing tattered armor, and some are even unable to take on a human form. However, they all carry the aura of the underworld, which cannot be dealt with by physical attacks. If one is entangled with them, even someone as powerful as Bai Lin would find it very troublesome.

"Ah, it's my sister's voice!" Hiroyuki Edogawa recognized the woman's voice immediately.

"Kerry, leave this to us, you break in quickly!" Catherine shouted.

Bai Lin looked at the ghosts being slowly squeezed in the stone path ahead. He could certainly use the Call of the Gods Owl to subdue the ghosts, but casting the Guardian Angel Spell required his presence, which would inevitably take some time. He gritted his teeth and nodded to Catherine.

Once he leaves, their soul connection will lose its biggest link, and their SAN value will decrease twice as much. Therefore, he doesn't have much time, so he has to fight fast.
