Inhuman Warlock-Novel

Chapter 536 - 536: Reverse Summon

The Summoning Circle worked with the nature. It was something that took the summoned beasts back to their worlds after the summoner died or when the summoner decided to send them back. It was a natural process.

Since Lucifer tried to use his decay on the Summoning Circles, something changed in the circles. It was as if his decay did damage the Summoning Circle but not the way he was expecting.

Instead of stopping the Summoning Circle, he damaged the limiter of the Circle, which made sure that only Summoned Beasts were called back.

The summoning circle spread to find five meters, swallowing everything inside, living and dead. All the bodies disappeared. Salazar also disappeared, and so did Jenilia.

The entire place was left empty.

After half an hour, Milena reached the place with her team.

"Looking at the scene, it should be the place where the battle took place. Apparently it's already over," Arthur commented, observing the scene.

"He didn't even tell us that it was over. His pilot must know who to contact and where to go. Let's go to his base." Milena flew back to the plane that was circling in the sky with her team.

...

Thud!

"Ouch!"

A body fell on the ground, followed by a pained noise of a lady.

Soon after, a man also fell on the ground, appearing out of thin air. The man slowed down time so he couldn't be hurt. He safely landed on the ground. He appeared in a different place than the lady before him, but he wasn't too far. The distance was only a hundred meters between the two.

Next, another man appeared, who happened to be a silver haired young man. Lucifer also controlled his body mid-air to safely land on the ground.

He landed in the middle of Jenilia and Salazar.

Salazar ran to Lucifer. Jenilia glanced at him briefly before she looked around. She wanted to approach him too, but she decided that it was better to leave.

She turned around and started walking away.

"And where are you going?" Lucifer shook his head, raising his head towards the lady.

The barrier once again appeared, trapping the lady.

Salazar caught up to Lucifer. "This place looks strange, doesn't it?"

He could see the trees that were blood red instead of green. The sky was pale green, which also looked odd.

And they couldn't see any sun in the sky.

"Are we even on earth?"

Lucifer also observed the sky. "I'm not sure either. I shouldn't have messed with the Summoning Circle. It's a teleportation formation as well. Maybe it tossed us into another world? Or maybe it's just a different part of the earth?"

He wore his glasses and tried to call Kellian, but the call didn't collect. He also couldn't use any data. It was as if the glasses were disconnected from the satellite.

"I was right. We aren't on earth," Lucifer muttered.

"If not earth, then where? And how would we go back?" Salazar asked.

"We'll have to find a way back. Maybe we can try the same thing again. Summon a beast and then mess with the formation. Better than nothing," he added.

Lucifer nodded as he looked around. "The problem is how to summon a beast? I don't have the powers of a Summoner. And apparently Zhu's body didn't come here with us."

Just as Lucifer finished speaking, a body dropped to his feet, appearing out of thin air. The body belonged to one of the Warlocks under Zhu.

"It looks like bodies came too. Zhu's body should be coming here as well. Then we can leave. Fortunately, it isn't that bad." Salazar said, sighing a breath of relief.

"You shouldn't raise any red flags at this point," Lucifer let out, smiling wryly.

He stopped before Jenilia. "Where were you running off to? Do you even know we aren't on earth? Without us, you won't be able to get back."

"We aren't on earth?" Jenilia asked, stunned.

Lucifer pointed up. "Look up. Since when is the sky on earth green? Now stop being an idiot and work with us."

Lucifer removed the barrier prison as he sat down, waiting for more bodies to come.

Every minute, one body fell from the sky. The beasts didn't come even after all this time.

"There it is!" Lucifer stretched his arms as he watched the body of Zhu fall.

His head fell fifty meters away from his body. First, he flew to the head, and then he went to the body.

As Lucifer's back was facing Jenilia, she couldn't see what he was doing. All she saw was that the body of Zhu had decayed.

She couldn't help but shake his head. Such a powerful Warlock was reduced to ash by a kid. No wonder the Warlock Council was so interested in the Uprising leader. He was even more threatening than what they heard.

She could also remember his words. It was them who had attacked the Uprising, not the Uprising who attacked first. It was true that they were arrogant, but that didn't change the fact that they were just defending themselves now. Moreover, if it was true that they didn't kill her father, then it meant they were in the wrong.

Her mind was totally conflicted right now. She was her enemy who wiped the team she was a part of. But she was also the person who was in the wrong and not him. Did she really have the high ground to blame him? In fact, his men died before their men died.

Lucifer stood up and walked back to Salazar.

"Are you ready to try?" Salazar asked.

"It's not that easy. Summoning isn't similar to other powers. I need to practice a lot before succeeding. Do any of you know how to make it easier? I focused more on how to defeat a Summoner in Academy than how to train like a Summoner," Lucifer responded, shaking his head.

He was capable of summoning, but he didn't know how to.

"I saw Sir Zhu summon his beasts, but I didn't see how he first summoned them. How did he establish a contract with the beasts? I didn't know."

"I didn't see him summon either. And the one that I did see summon back in the Academy was a low grade summoner. He couldn't Summon a high level beast. Whatever, I'll try the way I know first. If it works, it works."

"And if it doesn't work, we will try your way."

"Ah, Lucifer. Look up." Salazar muttered, staring in the sky.

Lucifer also looked up, stunned. Tens of Shadow Dragons could be seen flying away.

"So many of them? Ah, do you think we are in the world where beasts are summoned from?" Salazar asked.
