Becoming An Ancestor In Another World From This Day On

Chapter 261: Demon Binding Ropes

Harris’s eyes lit up. He looked at Ron and Dick and said, “I’m with you!”

Ron nodded and instructed, “Karuman, I’ll have to trouble you to operate the flying ferry.”

With that said, he flipped his right hand upward, and a magical tool to control the flying ferry appeared in his hand. He handed it to Karuman.

Karuman sighed in his heart and took the magical control tool. “Alright.”

This time, he had taken the initiative to follow them because he wanted to show off in front of the two young masters. Ever since the Nicholas family clan started to recruit retainers, he had sensed a strong sense of crisis.

In fact, when the members of the Nicholas family clan broke through to the Great Archmage realm one after another, he had a sense of crisis and powerlessness in his heart… because he had already sensed that his advancement speed could no longer keep up with the Nicholas family.

The Nicholas family had risen too quickly!

Back then, as an old servant, he could still escort Young Master Ron to participate in the trial… But now, he was no longer of much use.

In the battle of return earlier, he had killed a seriously injured top Great Archmage like he had picked up a bargain. This was already his best combat record currently.

The Nicholas family had recruited six Great Archmagi in a row, two of whom were of the same level as him.

Such a sense of crisis made him uneasy. He could no longer relax like before… He had to show his ability in front of his master!

He, Karuman, still had value to stay in the Nicholas family!

Compared to the other retainers who were in a daze, his greatest advantage was that he knew the benefits of being loyal to the Nicholas family far surpassed the imagination of ordinary people!

......

The new retainers were still focused on the superficial things but Karuman could already see things clearly.

However, this time when he followed them out, the subsequent development of things was different from what he had envisaged… Looking at the current situation, even if he wanted to follow the two young masters, he could not.

If he insisted on following them, not only would he not be able to fight, he might even be a burden to the two young masters!

After seeing the situation clearly, Karuman sighed in his heart. He could only separate from the young masters for the time being.

After a brief exchange of two to three words, Ron, Dick, and Harris left the flying ferry and leapt toward the place where the secret treasure had emerged.

As for Karuman and the three retainers, as well as Leonard, and Clane, who had followed them, they took the flying ferry and flew out of the mystic realm of the ruins.

Many other Magi had made the same choice as them. All of them had followed after the medium-grade sacred weapon. No one had even entered the entrance of the vortex… Clearly, the battle outside to snatch the sacred weapon was intense.

After they had left the flying ferry, Ron and the other two quickly arrived at the treasure mountain where the sacred weapon had emerged. They landed in a cave halfway up the mountain.

At the entrance of the cave, there was still the lingering aura of a broken magic formation. Looking in, it was pitch-black and dark. It was impossible to see clearly. Even magical power could not penetrate.

It seemed that there was at least an even more powerful magical protective formation in this treasure mountain!

In other words, this blessed land was the true residence of the Divine Mage!

After the medium-grade sacred weapon had flown away earlier, many Magi had chased after it from here. Currently, there was no one at the entrance of the cave. The situation inside was not known.

The three of them exchanged glances and activated the magical power in their bodies at the same time. They broke through the barrier and charged into the blessed land!

“Moo!”

However, just as they entered, their ears were pricked by a strange scream, and a powerful threatening aura greeted them!

The gold-tint magic robe on Ron’s body flashed, and a Holy Light Shield enveloped Ron and the others.

Boom!

In the next moment, the light shield was hit by a huge shadow, emitting a loud bang.

The huge shadow was repelled by the light shield. The three of them looked at the huge black shadow in unison. When they saw it clearly, they revealed shocked expressions. “This…”

“This… is a wooden bull?!”

What was attacking Ron and the other two was not a Mage or a magical beast, but a huge wooden bull!

The wooden bull was ten meters tall and as tall and strong as a hill. Its entire body was made of wooden blocks that were brown to black, but it was as alive as real life. After being thrown back by the protective shield, it even became dizzy. It shook its head, and the parts on its body made a crisp clicking sound.

Dick’s eyes lit up. He said in surprise, “A mechanical puppet!”

The mechanical puppet was a special creation. Like the talisman, it was actually a kind of magical equipment if carefully compared. However, it was very different from other magical equipment.

The refinement of such a creation, like talismans, required a special refining technique. The refining technique of such a mechanical puppet was a branch from ordinary refining techniques, or rather, an advanced version.

Currently, the magical weapon refinement technique which Dick had learned did not have any methods to refine puppet creations. However, as a weapon refiner, Dick was interested in this kind of alternative equipment refinement technique. He had once searched for and investigated many special magical equipment…

Among them, this mechanical puppet could be described simply as a magical equipment that could move!

There were two types of mechanical puppets. One required a Mage to operate it, and the other could move on its own under certain circumstances.

The puppet creation in front of him was probably the latter!

In addition, this wooden bull also emitted an extremely powerful aura of a magical beast. It seemed that this wooden bull was driven by a level-6 magic core!

With the level-6 magic core and the refined mystic wooden body, the strength of this puppet creation was equivalent to that of a level-6 magical beast!

Could this wooden bull puppet be the gatekeeper puppet for the residence of the Divine Mage?

Looking at the damaged state of the wooden bull, there were many cracks in it… it was impossible to tell how many battles it had experienced and how many magical weapons it had been attacked by.

However, as long as the mechanical puppet had not been completely damaged or its energy totally exhausted, the commands set by its master would be carried out.

Dick guessed that the reason why this wooden bull could still be a gatekeeper was very likely because the Magi who had barged in had only repelled it and then left in a hurry. After all, this wooden bull was really difficult to deal with… The wooden bull had probably been set to guard the door, so it had been staying here. Every time someone came in, it would fight them head-on.

At this moment, Dick suddenly sensed the fluctuation of the Strange Sacred Flame on Ron, who was beside him. He quickly stopped him.

“Ron, don’t destroy this wooden bull! I want to keep it and study it!”

Hearing this, Ron paused for a moment and agreed.

After retracting the Strange Sacred Flame, he used the Demon Binding Ropes to bind the wooden bull tightly.
