Long Live Summons

Chapter 853: Once Is Enough To Make Stupid Mistakes

“Are the two of you here to kill my newborn beast?” Yue Yang closed the gold box again.

On the back of the Fire Griffon, the first Heaven Ranker laughed but did not answer.

The Heaven Ranked warrior riding a Winged Unicorn secretly swore in his heart. No matter what, even if it was under the command of his leader, he will never break the damned golden box. Even if it did contain a newborn beast, he wasn’t going to take this risk. Just now, he saw with his own eyes that his companion Bai Lu made an unchangeable mistake even if he regretted it— it was an irrevocably grave mistake!

He looked at his companion, his eyes reflecting a gaze that was befitting when one sees a dead person.

In the sky, the Power of the Law was condensing.

This was a sign of the impending punishment after the challenger’s failure. If remembered correctly, Bai Lu’s beast, the ‘Giant-Antler Deer’ had already died twice. If it dies again this time, then Bai Lu himself will become a beast!

“Boss, help me!” Bai Lu yelled in a panic and asked for help from the Heaven Ranker who was his leader.

“You can no longer be saved,” The leader rode away with the Fire Griffin ruthlessly, and before he soared into the sky, he turned his head and delivered a sentence to Yue Yang, “I like interesting newcomers, but this is just the beginning. I look forward to your more exciting performances. By the way, I forgot to tell you that before your arrival, you had more than a dozen companions who came to the Beast Valley. In fact, three have already left, and the rest are still looking for the possibility of clearing the Level. Perhaps they will be happy to see you, too. Do you need me to bring them the news of your arrival?”

“Is that so? Thank you for your kindness, but I think it’s better for me to go by myself and give them a surprise,” Yue Yang understood what this guy meant. He tried using a confident tone to test if Yue Yang knew the people that were ahead.

“Although they are not very friendly to me as they remain very wary and refuse to make new friends, please let them know that I am very sincere and friendly. I am at least the friendliest of the Three Chiefs of the remaining residents in the Beast Valley, haha!” The self-proclaimed friendly leader that rode on the Fire Griffin soared into the sky, completely ignoring Bai Lu’s call for help.

“Ryoma, for the sake of our friendship, help me…” Bai Lu asked for help from the Heaven Ranker who rode on the Winged Unicorn.

“I’m sorry, I can’t do anything,” He said,backing a hundred meters away.

Bai Lu, who usually had a very arrogant attitude, was now shaking all over out of fear.

He didn’t know when it started to happen, but a cloud of black mist filled his body. Because of the protection of the Law, the black mist could not cause any damage to Bai Lu’s body, but the Heaven Ranked Giant-Antler Deer under Bai Lu wailed in pain. Surrounded by the black mist, its body swelled like a big balloon. Its bulging belly was rounder than an angry capybara ball, eyes and tongue forced to protrude out of its own body.

Bai Lu felt that things were bad, but he could no longer care about the beast. He was so scared to the point where he ‘swished’ and jumped into the air.

Boom!

At the same second.

Bai Lu’s hard-trained Heaven Ranked Battle-type Beast, the Giant-Antler Deer’s whole body exploded into pieces, spewing flesh and blood flew all around. The curse activated, and it took less than ten seconds for the beast to expand and explode.

What made Bai Lu even more terrified was that the Power of the Law that quietly gathered in the sky had now reacted immediately.

His body was no longer protected.

The punishment of the Law acted as scheduled, and there was no room for escape.

A flash of thunder blasted Bai Lu’s head, scorching him directly as he fell to the ground.

“Help me!” Bai Lu stretched out his hand to his companion for the last time. However, he could clearly see his hand gradually transforming into a deer’s hoof in the clump of black mist.

“No, no! Oh my God, this is terrible!” The Heaven Ranker who rode the Winged Unicorn became frightened and fled hundreds of meters away from his companion, lest he would also be contaminated by the contaginity of the black mist. After the beast died three times, the challenger would no longer be protected by the Law. This meant that they would directly transform into the beast he previously cultivated under the influence of the Law.

In front of Yue Yang, the arrogant Bai Lu writhed on the ground.

While his mouth wailed, his body slowly started to deform. Huge antlers grew on the top of his head whereas his hands and feet turned into four hooves. His head and body quickly transformed into the appearance of his original mount. Besides having the original memory of his mind, the current Bai Lu was no different from his previous mount, and that included the strengths that were exactly the same as the Deer Beast he cultivated.

If he still had his original strength, his leader would not have turned a blind eye.

Only after Bai Lu’s failure ended up turning him into a beast did the leader no longer treat him as a person. The worst part was that this kind of occurrence was considered the norm. In the Beast Valley, it was very common for such things to happen!

“Protect me. If you protect me in my time of weakness, I will divide half of all the treasures I got. Half of the portions will be yours,” Bai Lu struggled painfully. Facing this cruel reality, he had no choice but to accept the facts.

“I want your ‘Deer-Fetching Treasure Sabre’,” Ryoma, the Winged Unicorn beast rider, was no longer polite with him as he dared to demand the treasure.

“T-that… Fine!” Bai Lu, who had become a Giant-Antler Deer, agreed in humiliation.

Unexpectedly.

Things have changed.

When Bai Lu conjured the Deer’s Sabre from his storage ring, he threw it to the Heaven Ranker Ryoma who rode his own Winged Unicorn. However, the man retreated as soon as he took it. Bai Lu tried to pursue him just two steps behind, but he immediately realized that he was still very weak and it was impossible to keep up with Ryoma. For a moment, he was desperate, and his knees weakened before he fell to the ground, wanting to cry but unable to do so. It turned out that all it took was for the proud and aloft ‘him’ to smash a golden box to be abandoned. Not only did the leader ruthlessly leave him, but even Ryoma, who usually feared him, had taken the opportunity to bite.

H-how am I supposed to put up with this?

A shadow draped over Bai Lu’s eyes.

He looked up and found Yue Yang, who was still holding the golden box, looking down at him.

“A-are you going to kill me?” Bai Lu was surprised at first before he reacted. His opponent only possessed a mere newborn beast that had no ability to kill him. His thoughts flashed—if he could get the energy of the newborn beast, he would be able to quickly recover from his weak state. Although he couldn’t change back into a human form anymore, he could become a beast that also possessed great strength.

Live on, I have to live on.

How can I make sure that I can survive though?

Maybe…Bai Lu’s eyes rolled and he made up his mind. Getting up, he bowed his head to Yue Yang, “As long as you don’t kill me, I am willing to be your mount!”

Yue Yang was thinking. He seemed to think that it was a pretty good idea to have a Giant-Antler Deer Beast as a mount.

Bai Lu was very afraid that he would refuse, so he showered him with praise. He flattered that student Yue Yang was the best master in the world, and it was a blessing to be able to serve him for three lives as a mount. He was willing to be a life-long mount to make up for his previous offenses. In short, all the flatteringly revolting words were spoken. As Bai Lu was talking, he didn’t fail to secretly look at the golden box.

Student Yue Yang gently opened the golden box, letting the Thumbelina-like Reaper Mantis come out again to get some fresh air, “Getting a mount, huh? What do you think? Although this guy looks a bit disgusting, it doesn’t matter if he’s stuck in the Beast Valley. If we get him, we don’t have to bother to find a mount. Besides, you will also have a helper in your early stages of growth.”

The Reaper Mantis nodded in agreement, “Mhmm.”

The moment she nodded, Bai Lu seized the opportunity, bursting out with energy emanating from all over his body.

Although he had just been punished by the Law to turn into a beast and had yet to fully adapt to his new body, it was fair to say that eliminating a newborn beast with his own giant antlers was not a problem at all.

The giant antlers were like the power of a group of mammoths. Under the impact of the cone-shaped shockwave, even the fake, golden box that once contained the Reaper Mantis disintegrated into a pile of dust, let alone the Reaper Mantis herself. Yue Yang looked in front of him with a little bit of astonishment as a pit of more than 800 meters appeared.

On both sides of the pit, the trees were broken, overturning on both sides of the ditch.

The ground trembled in panic.

This was the power of a blow that broke out from Bai Lu’s sneak attack.

“Hahahahaha! I’ll say, kid, you really are a newcomer— you really don’t know anything about Beast Valley! Naive one, let me teach you a lesson: never trust the enemy and never reduce your cautiousness. In the Beast Valley, no one can be trusted. Did you really think that I, Bai Lu, will be made into a mount that bows down and obeys orders? Pui! I am the king of the prairie, the capable who dominates the strong; so how can I let a newcomer boss me around? You really are so, so naive!” Bailu laughed loudly, “In addition, I will let you in on one more truth for free. In the Beast Valley, when a beast kills the opponent, it will gain the energy of the opponent. So if you don’t kill your opponent, you will never be able to improve! I hope you, naive fool, can strive to live for a few more days. It’s really unfortunate that your second kill, third kill and the final kill wouldn’t fall into my hands, but do take your time to find your Battle-type Beast that is now in another world. This is the Beast Valley, not Heaven, hahaha!”

“I think he made it clear enough, so I probably don’t need to repeat it anymore?” Yue Yang took out a gold box again. As soon as he opened it, the Reaper Mantis came out from inside.

“Mmhm!” The Reaper Mantis nodded obediently.

Bai Lu’s laughter was cut off like a knife’s slash, and he looked at the golden box in Yue Yang’s hand innocently.

He froze.

He couldn’t think at all.

Hidden in the small woods a few kilometers away, Ryoma, the Winged Unicorn Heaven Ranked rider, was peeking with a held breath. When he saw this scene, he started to perspire in fear.

How many golden boxes were there on this kid? How did he switch them? No, those are not important… The important thing is that it wasn’t me who did it. Fortunately, I didn’t start a sneak attack and wasn’t as desperate to steal the energy of the newborn beast. Otherwise, I would have been a goner.

“Ah, y-you lied to me? You knew I would launch a sneak attack, so you deliberately tricked me, right?” Bai Lu understood a little now.

“You are so smart!” Yue Yang stretched out his thumb and praised him vigorously.

“Y-You, I-I, I’m going to kill you!” Bai Lu was now fully aware that this kid had deliberately opened the golden box and tempted him to be fooled. As long as he dies, the fragile newborn beast will be considered his first win. By then, he would be able to obtain a growth in energy!

Bai Lu didn’t know when he would die, but he knew that he didn’t have much time.

The shadow of death struck his heart.

The crimson-eyed Bai Lu rushed towards Yue Yang and the giant antlers once again picked up the Reaper Mantis. Even if death was inevitable for him, he would at least have someone to massage his back!

The Reaper Mantis jumped out of the golden box and her small body faced Bai Lu who had attacked with all his strength. The Reaper Mantis spun like the wind, gently hitting Bai Lu’s body. This kind of slight blow did no harm to the Bai Lu, who was in the form of a Heaven Ranked beast, but the Law of the Beast Valley determined that the two were fighting.

If one party dies, then the energy of that party will become the other party’s spoils!

Bai Lu rushed over and was about to kill the Reaper Mantis with its huge horns.

Suddenly, he stopped.

His whole body contracted painfully and he curled into a ball.

Like the original Giant-Antler Deer, his belly bulged, and the energy of his entire body was automatically concentrated within his abdomen, no longer controlled by his own will.

“I’ll tell you the truth. If the Divine Power of Calamity fails to curse the target, it will not disappear. It will only lie in search of opportunities. It can even remain dormant for a lifetime until there comes a chance to curse the target. Please don’t underestimate the Divine Power— it is the power of the Law governed by its Master’s will; it’s just that the Divine Power differs and the intensity would also be varied, so don’t think that the Divine Power will disappear that easily. Finally, I’ll give you a piece of advice, along with the other people like you who prey on me like you’re a predator: once is enough to make stupid mistakes. Do not repeat them over and over again while continuing to remain dense!” Yue Yang turned and left.

When he turned around, Bai Lu’s body exploded with a bang.

Flesh and blood splattered everywhere.

A huge head had also exploded from it, and a white magic crystal was thrown into the sky amidst the bloodstains. The Reaper Mantis caught it in her small hand with a soft ‘huh’ as she spread her wings and flew around the splashing blood, floating back into the golden box.

Although she was a newborn, under Yue Yang’s plan, she succeeded in making her first kill.

Whether she killed it personally or not was not of importance at all— the most important thing was that it had been approved by the Law of the Beast Valley.

“How terrifying!” In the distance, the Heaven Ranker who rode on the Winged Unicorn was hidden in the small woods as he peeked at the sight, wiping a handful of cold sweat from his forehead with a trembling hand.

He had seen a lot of newcomers.

But he really hasn’t seen anyone who was as genuinely terrifying as this kid!

The powerful and arrogant Bai Lu had simply been toyed to death by this kid. Even until his last breath, he was played by the hands of the other party.

This kid is just too scary! Forget it, I won’t provoke this kind of guy; I’ll just have him harm those guys behind the gates.

What will happen to those guys who are behind when they meet this scart kid? I guess if so, an entire wave of misfortune will probably spread throughout the whole valley, right? If this is the case, it might be a good thing for me to have such an odd newcomer arrive!
