As the ritual proceeded, the underground hall began to shake, and ancient runes glowed on the walls, as if some dormant power was being awakened.
Suddenly, a deafening roar erupted, causing the entire hall to tremble.
When the dust settled, the old nobles were surprised to find a group of gargoyles clad in stone armor and wielding sharp blades standing before them.
Their eyes gleamed with a ghostly green light, as if they were warriors returned from hell, ready to fight for the old nobles.
Meanwhile, on the other side of Crystal Song City, Reina stood atop the tallest tower of the royal city, gazing at the storm in the sky.
Her face was filled with gravity; she knew that this storm was not only a natural disaster but a crisis that could overthrow the order of Crystal Song City.
"We must take action!" Reina said to the guards beside her, "Invoke the Ice Hell Energy to calm this storm!"
The guards immediately sprang into action, chanting a spell to summon the power of Ice Hell.
