Lan Mu had long felt that there was something wrong with him. When he attacked his own people, Lan Mu wasn't surprised at all.
Seeing him easily summon so many monsters, such as spiders, minotaurs, three-headed snakes, and so on, he could basically conclude that the monsters in this world were his doing.
Needless to say, he must have seen the value of the Mountain Giant and wanted to use it for himself.
However, his colleagues couldn't win, so they might as well use their true strength to subdue the Mountain Giant. That would expose them, so he could only deal with his colleagues who were dragging him down first.
"Do you really think I'm a monster with a bad brain?"
Lan Mu couldn't be bothered to listen to his nonsense. The battle was in full swing, so if he didn't take the opportunity to get rid of him, would he listen to his thoughts?
This so-called genius seemed to have a deep grudge, but he had already been blinded by hatred. He would do anything for revenge, trying to use monsters to destroy the Empire. He had killed countless people, so he was no different from a monster.
No matter what kind of hatred he had, or what kind of past he had, his actions deserved death, not to mention that he wanted to subdue Lan Mu.
Lan Mu's decision wouldn't change even if he didn't listen to his nonsense.
The Mountain Giant's weakness was too obvious. From the other party's ability, he could summon an army of monsters, so he definitely couldn't be underestimated. If he waited for the other party to free up, Lan Mu wouldn't be completely confident.
Fortunately, Beirut seemed to be hiding a lot of things. He had been undercover as a teacher in the academy for many years, hiding his identity, and secretly summoning monsters to attack humans. Years of suppression had caused his mentality to become twisted. Now that he was exposed, he was a little complacent and seemed to think that the Mountain Giant was a monster with low intelligence.
Lifting his leg, Lan Mu looked at the bloody mess and nodded.
If he continued summoning monsters like this, even ants could bite an elephant to death. The Mountain Giant couldn't run away, so the result was unpredictable.
The monsters' attacks didn't stop, and they instantly tore apart the remaining mages.
These monsters were similar to the beasts on Earth, but they emitted magic waves.
Some of them were monsters, some stood like humans and could even use weapons.
In a short time, Beirut had summoned hundreds of monsters. When these monsters saw Beirut die, they all looked at one of the humanoid monsters.
The humanoid monster looked like a demon, but its body was thin and somewhat stooped.
He didn't have a strong body or a strong aura like the demons, but his reddish-black skin and short horns made people feel that he was related to the demons.
For the time being, Lan Mu considered him a Devil Dweller. He seemed to be the leader of this group of Devils.
The Devil Cultivator was surprised by Beirut's death, but he was also somewhat resentful.
He and the other demons grunted a few times, but Lan Mu could not understand what they were saying.
"Let's deal with it first!"
Lan Mu grabbed a huge rock and threw it at them. At the same time, he took a big step forward, wanting to trample them to death.
The Devil Cultivator raised his hand in annoyance and shot out a red magic ball. The moment it hit the boulder, it shattered into pieces and fell to the ground.
Behind him, a large group of Spider Monsters extended their silk-like objects and wrapped around Lan Mu's feet in the blink of an eye.
However, Lan Mu's strength was too great. Although the spider silk was tough, it couldn't do anything to him.
Forcefully stepping down, many of the Devils were crushed into mud.
The other Devils roared a few times, and all kinds of magic hit Lan Mu's feet, causing the rocks to shatter.
Lan Mu hurriedly sucked in the rocks and repaired his broken feet.
The magic in the Devils' bodies was different from this world. It had all kinds of unique attributes and was mixed with evil power.
Seeing Lan Mu easily repair it and looking at the mountain next to them, they quickly dismissed the idea of fighting the Mountain Giant.
The Devil Cultivator grunted a few times and suddenly fished out a few black gems from Beirut's remains.
With a cry, he retreated with hundreds of Devils like a tide, leaving the mountain.
Lan Mu chased for a few steps and stopped.
The Mountain Giant was not good at chasing. If he was far away from the mountain, his strength would be greatly weakened.
What were rocks? The Devils could easily destroy rocks, but he was too big. With the addition of the mountain rocks, he was in an invincible position. This was why the Devils were chased away.
Lan Mu did not want to cause any more trouble. It was good that the Devils left. After all, they were not on the same side as the humans.
At this moment, all the humans present were dead. The two sides found each other difficult to deal with, so they tacitly stopped fighting and retreated.
...
Lan Mu walked for a long time, hiding in the depths of the mountains. He swept open an open space and sat on the ground.
As he rested, he thought about it.
"The Devils were summoned by Beirut... But they obviously have intelligence. They seem to have some purpose for listening to Beirut's orders."
"If I'm not wrong, Beirut inadvertently communicated with the Devils' world, or simply the Devils' world. He summoned the Devils for revenge. Perhaps his hatred coincides with the Devils' pursuit, so they listen to him? "
"No, the Devils have already arrived in this world. They also have their own leaders. There is no need for them to listen to the orders of a native Mage... It is more likely that they want to summon more Devils through this Mage. With so many Devils now, it is still too far away for them to take over this world."
"Can't the high-level Devils be summoned by themselves? Can they only rely on Beirut? "
Thinking of this, Lan Mu opened his mouth and spat out the teaching materials, carefully flipping through them.
He studied until midnight and finally finished reading all the teaching materials.
"Summoning spells can only summon foreign objects to one's side. There has never been a summoning spell that can get oneself to another place. The only one who can do this is another Mage."
"The Academics do the same. They let the Mages become partners with each other and perform emergency summoning in times of crisis to get their partners out of danger."
"Without anti-summoning... how can I go back?"
Lan Mu felt a little bad. The summoning spells of this world could not help him go back.
"The Devils chose Beirut as their spokesperson and let him summon more companions. This can be explained by the fact that these ordinary Devils do not know how to summon themselves, nor can they learn summoning spells."
"Even if there is a powerful Devil that can do it, he has to come first. Beirut's summoning ability also has a limit. He can only summon targets with magic power similar to his own. The headmaster's level of magic power is not enough to summon a super Devil. If that kind of existence can't come, the Devils can only rely on their 'spokesperson' for the time being... "
"The situation should be close... Beirut is dead. The Devils' priority now must be to find a new chess piece."
"I'm afraid that they belong to the Devil. In the end, they summon a real Devil. This world is basically useless."
Lan Mu couldn't stop thinking. The situation was the worst.
Summoning was one-way. The Devils could use the native chess pieces to accomplish their goals, but Lan Mu could not! No one on Earth could summon him back!
"If I can't go back... I'm done for... My roots are on Earth!"
"Why is summoning so bad? Can't I summon myself to another place? Okay... I'm taking it for granted... "
"Waiting for a certain transformation to travel between worlds? How long do I have to wait! "
"No! I must find a way to go back! "
Nothing was more important than returning to Earth. The situation there was not stable. Without him in charge for a long time, the preachers in Riwa might cause trouble.
In the end, he could only pin his hopes on summoning.
"Summoning has been perfected for thousands of years. The people in this world have played with it, but in the area of crossing worlds, it can only be done randomly. No one has been able to reverse the summoning."
"Why?"
Lan Mu stood there like a mountain, thinking silently for three days.
In the past three days, he had only learned the basics of summoning. After all, it was too complicated. People in the academy had to study it for several years before they could become a qualified mage. It was impossible for him to learn it in three days.
"I don't believe it. Summoning can bring me here, but can't send me away?"
The mountain-like Mountain Giant disappeared, and the ocean-blue Asari appeared in its place.
Lan Mu flipped through the teaching materials again. After memorizing them in his mind, he began to look for inspiration.
The Asari were much more efficient than the Mountain Giant when it came to learning.
Almost instantly, Lan Mu understood summoning.
In about ten minutes, he had completely mastered it and could use it flexibly. His attainment in summoning was no less than that of a headmaster.
Mastering it was not the end. Lan Mu planned to lead a revolution in summoning and improve the magic system of this world to another level!
"Countless mages can't do it, but that doesn't mean I can't …"
"I will definitely create a new summoning!"
