Just as Li Jie and Strange were looking at the sacred sword stuck in the huge crystal, something strange happened.
They were now in Wizard Merlin's crypt. In terms of position, it was more than thirty meters underground.
There were many taboos here, and the temple above was also there to protect the crypt.
It could be said that Wizard Merlin's crypt was well preserved, and the sacred sword should be safe here.
However, something unexpected happened today. Just as Li Jie and Strange were looking at the sacred sword, Strange's body suddenly changed.
"What?!"
Strange's body suddenly emitted a faint light, and then the light became brighter and more obvious.
This sudden change caught Li Jie and Baron Mordu off guard.
"What are you doing?" Baron Mordu asked loudly, "I don't care what trick you're playing, you better stop right now!"
"What trick? I'm not playing any tricks. I don't know what's going on either. "Strange was also confused. He didn't know what was happening to his body.
The inexplicable light on his body grew brighter and brighter, like a blazing sun, illuminating the entire crypt. And Excalibur, which was illuminated by the light, also changed.
Originally, the sword was just calmly inserted into a large blood crystal. However, after being illuminated by the light, the holy sword actually began to tremble slightly and slowly came out of the crystal.
"What the hell is going on!?" Baron Mordu immediately mobilized the array to suppress the sacred sword that was about to break free from the crystal.
But the sacred sword seemed to be summoned by someone. Even though the array in the crypt was activated, it couldn't stop the sacred sword from breaking free from the crystal's control.
Li Jie, on the other hand, seemed to be deep in thought. The way he rubbed his chin and pondered made the motorcycle baron very unhappy. From his point of view, this matter was definitely Li Jie's doing.
Everything was fine at first. Why did they want to look at the sacred sword? If they wanted to look at the sacred sword, then so be it. Why did such a sudden change happen? As a Temple Mage of the London Temple, Baron Mordo had the responsibility and obligation to protect everything here, including Great Mage Merlin's relics.
In the entire crypt, the most valuable relic was none other than the Excalibur that the Great Wizard Merlin had forged for King Arthur.
This Holy Sword had all kinds of magical legends, but it was different from the legends on the market. Mages knew more about this Holy Sword. The stories that the mages knew were even more bizarre than the stories that parents told their children about King Arthur.
For example, King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table were Wizard Merlin's important allies in the past. They had helped Merlin venture into many foreign worlds. This treasured sword had slain various evil gods and pierced through the hearts of many demons.
This sword was even more powerful than the ones in the legends. It was said that once it was restored, it could cut through the seals of the multiverse.
Initially, when no one had forged this treasured sword, it did not possess such great power. However, after a long period of battle, especially after King Arthur had followed Wizard Merlin to many other dimensions and fought against many Demon Gods, the power of this sword had grown stronger.
If this sword were to be lost, Baron Mordo could not imagine what kind of punishment he would face. Even as the eldest disciple of Ancient One, he would not be able to escape the punishment.
The strange movement of the Holy Sword had awakened many of the mages who were studying in Greenwich. They might not be qualified to come to the lowest level of the crypt, but they all returned to their posts and began to activate the spell formation in the crypt.
However, even after activating the heavy seals, they still could not suppress the Holy Sword's desire to escape from the crystal.
Seeing this, Li Jie suddenly remembered that this Holy Sword was very similar to Thor's Hammer in a certain aspect. When this thought appeared, Li Jie could not help but say, "Wizard Mordo, don't you think it's strange? This sword seems to be summoned by someone. "
Baron Mordo hated Sister Li to the core. If not for Li Jie bringing Strange here, none of this would have happened.
"Don't joke around. After King Arthur's death, no one could wield it anymore. Even the Ancient One couldn't pull it out of the crystal stone. This is a divine weapon, it only belongs to its master. Only someone with King Arthur's aptitude is qualified to wield it. "Baron Mordo refuted Li Jie's statement without hesitation.
"I don't know what you and Strange are up to, but I've already informed the guards. None of you are allowed to run. You must give me an explanation for this. "
Baron Mordo was already certain that Li Jie and Strange were behind this. Perhaps Trunch was using this method to take revenge on him. Revenge for not giving him the recipe for the hair-growing potion, and for throwing him out of the Holy Cathedral in such a humiliating manner.
Strange could not control his body. It was as if he was frozen in place. His body emitted a light that shone on the crystal. The longer the light shone on the holy sword, the more power it would have to break free.
"Damn it, can't you turn off the light bulb?!" Baron Mordo was furious when he saw Strange still glowing. He even stopped activating the formation with his hands and punched Strange's face with all his might.
One had to know that this was a heavy punch from a Mage. That was too terrifying. Even a Berserk Warrior could not match the power of a Mage's fist!
However, even though Strange was knocked unconscious, he still could not stop glowing. He was like an oversized light bulb, shining brightly in the underground palace.
Li Jie had already heard the story Strange told him about Merlin's daughter. The story of a woman named Roma and a man named Brian.
Brian was said to be the successor of King Arthur. At least, that was what Roma said. She said that the man had the ability to wield the holy sword, so she wanted Strange to help her take out the holy sword and give it to Brian.
Li Jie guessed that Roma might have done something when she first met Strange. Perhaps she was not confident that she could persuade Strange to help her steal the holy sword.
Li Jie did not know why the woman wanted the holy sword so much. He did give some reasons to Strange, but those reasons did not hold water in Li Jie's eyes.
She was an old monster who had lived for a thousand years. Well, maybe not a thousand years, but at least 800 years. At least she should be the same age as Ancient One.
Would she judge a person with such a stupid reason? Just because Ancient One borrowed the power of the Dark Plane, did she think that Ancient One was a bad person? People had two sides. There were no pure good people in this world, and there were no pure bad people.
"I know it's you, Roma. Come out!" Li Jie shouted at the empty underground palace.
Mordo was surprised. "Who are you talking to?"
Li Jie ignored him and continued shouting. "I'll give you a chance. Come out now and we'll talk. Maybe there's a chance. Otherwise, don't blame me for using my last resort. "
Li Jie threatened, but there was no response.
The corner of Li Jie's mouth twitched. "Well, you forced me to do this." Li Jie stretched out his left hand. The Ring of Wizardry that Ancient One had given him was on the index finger of this hand. (The Ring of Wizardry was worn with the Ring of Wizardry gloves, not directly on the hand.)
Li Jie did something he had never done before. Even when he was in trouble and needed help, he had never done this.
In fact, the Ring of Wizardry that Ancient One had given him wasn't just a keepsake. At the same time, it was also a life-saving charm for Li Jie.
When he needed it, he could use the ring to summon Ancient One at any time. When he used the ring, it meant that the situation was urgent.
This was a divine artifact. Li Jie didn't plan to let it fall into the hands of an ignorant person. Just look at Thor's Hammer and Odin's Scepter. If these divine artifacts used their full power, they were much more powerful than nuclear weapons.
It wouldn't do to give such a divine artifact to an ignorant person on Earth. Li Jie didn't know if this woman called Roma was good or bad. What if she was a bad person?
Just as Baron Mordo and the others were activating the formation, a powerful pressure appeared in the sky above the London Holy Cathedral.
