The next day, Ron took out the Iron Wrench Emblem that Vinard had given him in his study.
He took a deep breath and slowly infused magic power into the emblem.
The process to establish communication took much longer than expected.
The runes on the surface of the emblem lit up one by one.
But the activation of each rune was accompanied by a long wait, as if the signal had to cross countless barriers to reach its destination.
After three minutes, the emblem finally established a stable connection.
However, what came from the other side of the signal was an unsettling noise:
The sound of metal hammering, the shrill alarms of energy overload, and the low rumble of some large mechanical device in operation.
Occasionally, technical instructions in the ancient wizard language could be heard, the tone urgent and full of anxiety.
"Wait... it's not the right time now..."
