Chapter 406 Legendary Cripple
Michael's hands trembled in excitement as he picked the Legendary Summoning Scroll. It weighed heavily in his hands even though its actual weight was not even 500 grams.
'A Legendary Summoning Scroll...is that actually one?!' Michael wondered, barely able to contain his excitement.
Legendary Summoning Scrolls were said to be among the most precious treasures within Ancient Ruins, Rifts, and Dungeons. They could also be procured outside these unique places, but there was only a minuscule chance to have one Legendary Summoning Scroll dropped from the corpse of a Mythical Existence.
Just like Mythic Summoning Scrolls dropped from Superior Existences every now and then, Mythical Existences dropped Legendary Summoning Scrolls – though rarely.
Yet, someone like Michael could procure Legendary Summoning Scrolls by combining a million Summoning Scroll Fragments. How insane was that?
'If I extract the Summoning Scroll Fragments from an Ordinary Summoning Scroll....will 27,000 Ordinary Summoning Scrolls and 331,200 Fragments be enough to form a second Legendary Scroll?' Michael wondered all of a sudden. His eyes moved to the stash of Ordinary Scrolls and his eyes began to glimmer. There was only one way to find out.
Thus, he used Extraction on ten Summoning Scrolls to find out how many fragments he obtained.
Unfortunately, he was disappointed big time with this experiment. Using Extraction on 10 Ordinary Summoning Scrolls rewarded him with merely 100 Summoning Scroll Fragments. That was a lot less than Michael had hoped for.
'100,000 Summoning Scrolls for 1 Legendary Summoning Scroll...
Well, that is actually better than I expected. A Legendary Summoning Scroll is likely to Summon a 5-Star Summon, after all.'
Michael had yet to use Extraction on Summoning Scrolls purchased on the market. He never tried to do that, but he could instinctively feel that Extraction wouldn't be able to obtain as many Fragments as he received from the Scrolls he had procured through hard work.
'Even if Extraction can only extract 5 Fragments from a purchased Ordinary Scroll that means I would need 200,000 Scrolls to form one Legendary Summoning Scroll. If an Ordinary Summoning Scroll costs 5,000$, I would have to spend one billion...that is...actually quite feasible.'
Even if the rate of Extraction were to be much lower than anticipated, Michael doubted that he would have to pay more than 10 billion to procure enough Ordinary Scrolls to form a Legendary Summoning Scroll.
The only issue was that no shop would allow Michael to mass purchase that many Summoning Scrolls. The demand for Summoning Scrolls was always extremely high. Thus, shops were regulated to avoid selling too many Summoning Scrolls to Lords. Every Lord had only a specific monthly quota that was adjusted according to their Society Rank, Tier, and unique achievements.
As a Tier-2 Lord without special Society Rank or achievements, Michael could probably purchase 50,000 Summoning Scrolls a month, but that was about it.
Therefore, it would be much easier to use his funds differently. He could still get hold of 50,000 Summoning Scrolls a month and extract them to slowly accumulate the Fragments required to conjure another Legendary Scroll, but it would be a slow and arduous process. Even then it should be worth it.
But those thoughts and ideas were for the future. For now, he has one Legendary Scroll, 27,040 Ordinary Scrolls, and 331,200 Summoning Scroll Fragments to use.
330,000 Summoning Scroll Fragments were merged into 33 Mythic Scrolls, leaving Michael with enough chances to summon a few 3-Star Summons.
While that would have excited him before, Michael's whole attention had moved to the Legendary Scroll.
"Even if I'm extremely unlucky, the worst Summon I can get will be a 4-Star with one unique trait," Michael mumbled, while Lilica spoke his next thought aloud,
"Of course, you hope to be lucky enough to summon a 5-Star Summon, maybe even a 6-Star Summon."
Michael was not too sure about the probability for each star rating, but he had heard rumors about someone summoning a 7-Star Summon with a Legendary Summoning Scroll. That was something one could usually only get by being extremely fortunate when using a Fortune Summoning Scroll.
Michael knew his luck well enough to understand that he wouldn't Unable to contain his excitement and expectations anymore, Michael left the warehouse and moved to the Summoning Gate. All Scrolls were stored in his storage whereas the Legendary Scroll rested in his hands. It vibrated violently as if eager to be used immediately.
That was exactly what Michael intended to do. He tore the ruby seal from the Legendary Scroll the moment he reached the Summoning Gate. His impatience was evident as Michael stared at the Legendary Scroll as it unfolded itself.
The golden scroll ascended into the air through the will of unknown forces. It revolved around Michael while revealing the content written within it.
Michael was curious about the ominous black letters written on the golden parchment, but he didn't dare to use Extraction to extract the wisp of knowledge that the Legendary Scroll contained.
It would be interesting to get to know more about the summoning principle, but it wasn't worth potentially destroying a Legendary Scroll merely to obtain some sort of information.
The golden scroll stopped revolving around him as a trace of resolve entered Michael's mind. He knew what kind of Summons he required the most right now.
Combatants!! The more high-ranked combatants with great potential the better.
Michael stared at the Legendary Scroll with a firm resolve. However, the moment the Legendary Scroll dashed toward the energy pool of the Summoning Gate, Michael closed his eyes.
He didn't dare to look at the Summoning Gate, fearing that his cursed luck would result in turning the Legendary Scroll's great power into a non-combat 4-Star Summon.
Of course, that wouldn't be bad either, but it was not what Michael wanted.
obtain a 7-Star Summon. But what about a 6-Star?
"Oh my gosh!" Liopham blurted aloud. That was not common for the Forest Elf, but the same could be said for the usually quiet Pheli.
"Wow. That's amazing!" She squealed, shaking Opars who was standing next to her with his eyes wide open.
Curious about what was going on, Michael opened his eyes. He looked straight at the Summoning Gate where six bright stars illuminated the Gate's frame.
"6-Star!!" Tiara exclaimed at the same moment.
'As if?!' Michael's mind thundered, and his heart began to beat wildly. He pressed his hands together and grit his teeth trying to suppress his excitement.
Any type of 6-Star Summon would be great, but Michael hoped that his last bits of luck wouldn't betray him right now.
'A combat Summon please!' He screamed in his heart as the outlines of the Summons formed in the energy pool.
Time slowed down for Michael as his entire being focused on the situation ahead of him. The 6-Star Summon emerged from the Summoning Gate, revealing his imposing figure to the outside world – or so Michael had hoped to happen.
Unfortunately, reality looked a little bit different from what Michael had been hoping for. The 6-Star Summon in front of him was not a huge wall of muscle but an old man wearing silver armor that seemed way too heavy for him.
The old man moved slowly from the Summoning Gate's stage, the heavy armor pulling him downward. But that was not all. A huge broadsword was fastened to the backside of his armor. A single glance was enough to tell that the huge broadsword was, at least, as heavy as the old man's heavy armor.
'What the fu–...' Michael was just about to curse when he noticed that the old man slipped. The old man was about to fall when Michael shot forward to break his newest summon's fall. He caught the old man and felt the weight of the old man's armor and sword for the first time as well.
"Holy shit!" Michael cursed aloud. 'That's fucking heavy! How can this old man even move in this heavy armor? Isn't he Tierless?!?'
Despite looking like a roughed-up man in his 70s or 80s, the old man summoned to his territory as a 6-Star Summon was quite powerful. The armor and sword he wielded must be weighing hundreds of kilograms, yet the old man could walk around it despite being Tierless.
He might have had difficulties walking and fell over near the edge of the Summoning Gate's platform, but that was not the important part.
Michael removed the heavy broadsword from the old man's back, which allowed the old man to move freely. Circulating energy through his body to make sure he could carry the broadsword somewhat easily, Michael stared at the old man for a while. Only then did he realize that one of his arms was missing, replaced by a prosthetic arm that moved like an ordinary arm would.
'That is my 6-Star Summon? I...don't know what to think about that...' Michael thought, feeling a little let down as the Link of Loyalty with the unknown old man was formed.
The Link of Loyalty was not firm, but it wasn't shallow either. It provided him with a fair amount of information upon getting completed, which was how Michael found out who the old man was and what he was capable of.
"Head of the Sacred Knight temple. Also known as the Immortal Knight Siegfried Dracoon," Michael mumbled which the Immortal Knight responded with a faint chuckle. n(.Ovelb1n
"Since you were able to Summon me I can hardly call myself Immortal Knight don't you think so...my Lord?" Siegfried Dracoon asked with a chuckle. He realized quickly that the Link of Loyalty suggested he call Michael 'Lord'. That didn't sit well with the Head of the Sacred Knight Temple. Unfortunately, he couldn't do anything about that since his Lord had yet to allow him to ignore the formalities.
"You must have survived countless battles to be honored as the Immortal Knight. Of course, a title is just that, a name given by others. It doesn't mean that you're actually immortal," Michael responded with a shrug, his gaze lingering on the old man.
"Something about you feels different. Will you ever be able to fight?" Michael asked rather straightforwardly when he sensed that something about the old man was off. Siegfried Dracoon might be physically powerful, more so than others. However, something deep inside him seemed to torment him. That was what Michael sensed through the faint link of loyalty at least.
"Your perception is quite good. Our Link of Loyalty has just been completed, yet you can already tell that something is wrong with my constitution," Siegfried Dracoon said, a sad smile forming on his lips. "Since you're worried about my combat prowess, I think I should tell you about it now rather than later."
Siegfried paused for a second before he continued.
"I won't be able to fight for you."
Michael tried not to sigh the moment the words rang through his ears. He could have guessed that already. It was such a shame.
Unfortunately, his 6-Star Summon didn't seem tha— " But I can reconstruct the Sacred Knight Temple with the powers I possess." Siegfried said, a smile forming on his lips.
"Your powers?" Michael asked, a glimmer of hope resurfacing in his eyes.
"I have the power to instruct and train your subjects. I can stimulate their latent potential and turn them into 1-Star Blessed Squires, 2-Star Holy Knights, or even 3-Star Sacred Knights if their potential, loyalty, and belief are strong enough!!"
Michael froze in front of the old man when he heard what he said. It took him a few moments to digest what he heard just now.
'I hit the fucking jackpot!!'
