Li Huailin was unable to react to the sudden turn of events. Li Huailin did not notice the thing that had appeared behind him at all. By the time Li Huailin could react, he was already surrounded by darkness. Judging from the situation just now, he might have been swallowed by something relatively large.
What was it? From Li Huailin's judgment, he could basically confirm that it was the monster known as the Demon God. That's right, he had already discovered some of the characteristics of this monster. First, the lowest level of the Demon God was red in color. This type of Demon God did not have any special characteristics. Basically, it was just some random soldier with exceptionally good Stamina. It was likely that it did not have any special abilities.
The blue Demon God that had appeared after that seemed to be of a higher level. It also appeared to have been strengthened. Li Huailin felt that the strengthened parts of its body had been strengthened. For example, the centaur Demon God had strengthened its legs, allowing it to run faster. The other slimmer Demon God had strengthened the wings on its back, allowing it to fly.
Based on this line of thought, the thing that had swallowed him had probably strengthened its mouth? At present, Li Huailin was surrounded by darkness. After trying it out for a while, Li Huailin discovered that the torch could be used here. He lit the torch and looked around. He found himself in a strange-looking circular room. There was nothing around him and it did not feel like he was in the stomach of something. Instead … it felt like he had arrived in a special space.
"In short, let's give it a try first." Naturally, Li Huailin did not want to stay here. Thus, he began to think of a way to leave.
As for the situation outside, Matanna was slightly taken aback when he saw the person who had appeared in front of him. Then, a little excited, he shouted, "Lord Horapps!"
The person who had appeared before him was a slightly lean man. He was still wearing a cloak and his face could not be seen clearly. That's right, he was Horapps. Although Li Huailin did not know, Matanna and the others were already close to the rendezvous point. Horapps was originally waiting for Matanna to return with a report. However, no one came. Just as he was feeling a little strange, he sensed the fluctuations of the battle and immediately came over to check on the situation. It was then that he saw Li Huailin.
He immediately recognized Li Huailin, so he could more or less guess the current situation. Of course, Horapps knew how powerful Li Huailin was, so he had been searching for an opportunity to kill him. As he waited, he found a good opportunity. It just so happened that Li Huailin's attention was on Matanna, so Horapps hurriedly seized the opportunity to launch a sneak attack. Sure enough, he swallowed Li Huailin before he could react.
"Matanna, what's going on? How did you guys end up encountering this guy?" Seeing that his sneak attack had succeeded, Horappus heaved a sigh of relief and asked Matanna. "What's going on?"
"I'm very sorry, Sir Horapps." Matanna was also a little frightened. That's right, the order they received was only to deal with a few of Li Huailin's subordinates. They were not to confront Li Huailin head-on. Therefore, Matanna's actions were actually somewhat against Horapps' orders. In fact, this kind of behavior had led to a rather terrible result. Now, Matanna was a little regretful. If it weren't for his stubbornness, Michaela wouldn't have … So, Matanna directly admitted his mistake. Of course, he also hurriedly explained the current situation.
"You idiot!" Horappus snarled at Matanna.
"This is all my fault, Sir Horapps. If it weren't for me, Michaela wouldn't have …" Matanna lowered his head and said, no longer having the arrogant attitude from before.
"But … your recklessness has created a good opportunity for me," said Horapps. That's right, he didn't really care about losing a subordinate. Honestly speaking, he could find someone else to replace a subordinate like Michaela at any time. However, this useless subordinate actually gave him a chance to ambush Li Huailin, and he even succeeded. In his opinion, this was a very worthwhile trade. "Alright, I'll give it to you." Michaela nodded, "That's right.
"Sir Horapps, that guy …" Matanna immediately asked. Of course, he also wanted to know if Li Huailin was dead or not.
"You're really stupid. That guy is an adventurer. Even if you kill him, there's no point. You'll just resurrect him somewhere else. That's why my order was for you to deal with his subordinates." Horapps said. "But the situation is a little different now. I didn't expect that he would choose to leave the observatory at this time. This gave me an opportunity. You probably don't know about my Deity Warden ability, right?"
"Yes, Lord Horappus." Matanna nodded.
"My Deity Warden's ability is rather special. As long as you're swallowed by my Deity Warden, you'll be teleported to a sealed space. This ability is very special and can restrain the abilities of adventurers. Although this ability can't really kill him, it can trap him there, which is equivalent to imprisoning him. According to my magic, I can maintain the summoning for at least five days. And according to the rules of the world trial, if that guy doesn't return to the observatory by tomorrow, he will be disqualified from the trial. In other words … "
"We succeeded?" At this point, Matanna naturally understood the situation. They had successfully stopped Li Huailin from participating in the trial. In other words, their ultimate goal had been achieved? Matanna inexplicably heaved a sigh of relief. Although his close friend Michaela had sacrificed himself, his sacrifice was worth it. They had successfully stopped Li Huailin. If Michaela knew about this, he would probably be happy.
"Not bad. Although your actions were very rash, at least you created a good opportunity for me." Horapps was in a good mood, so he couldn't help but praise Matanna. Horapps knew that his strength was actually at the bottom of the Seven Attendants, and there was a huge gap between him and the others. The main reason he was selected was because his Deity Warden's special ability could restrain adventurers. Horappus himself had always been very unhappy about this matter. He felt a strange sense of inferiority, but the current situation made him very happy. Because the person who got rid of their biggest target was him. So what if they were stronger than him? In the end, wasn't he the one who got rid of Li Huailin?
He was so happy that he wanted to immediately report this matter to His Majesty the God King, and then flaunt his achievement in front of the other attendants. Unfortunately, they should still be inside the observation center, but it didn't matter. This was already an established fact. When it was time to gather, he would naturally make the other attendants who had looked down on him drop their jaws.
"Lord Horapse, will that fellow not be able to escape?" Matanna suddenly asked with a worried tone. That's right, because he had been frightened by Li Huailin's strength earlier, he had become more cautious now as he asked Horappus.
"How is that possible!" Horapps said directly. This wasn't as simple as swallowing him. As Horapps spoke, he patted his Deity Warden beside him. This Deity Warden's color and appearance were rather strange. He had seen blue and red Deity Wardens before, but this Deity Warden was white. It wasn't very big, even smaller than Matanna's Deity Warden. It looked a bit like a big lizard, but this guy's mouth was really big. How big was it? It had already extended to a circle around its body. That's right. Simply put, if this guy completely opened its mouth, its entire body would feel like it was split in half.
Although Horapps' Deity Warden wasn't very strong, it was powerful because of its special ability. The things it swallowed weren't really swallowed, but stored in a special space. This ability had many applications. For example, it could be used to store things, or it could be used to imprison prisoners. It wasn't a direct combat ability, but it was very effective at the moment.
"The space inside this fellow is a special space. It is not something that can be broken out through brute force. Unless the other party has a special spatial ability or is strong enough to tear space apart, it will be impossible for them to break out," Horappus said confidently. That's right. Even the other attendants weren't strong enough to tear space apart. Unless the God King personally took action, Horapps felt that no one could do so.
Of course, this thing also had a certain limit. For example, he had to maintain the state of summoning. Otherwise, once this thing returned, it would automatically spit out everything in its stomach. Fortunately, Horapps' Mana was enough to maintain the summoning for at least five days. That was enough.
"I see." Matanna nodded. Although he couldn't imagine the extent of Horapps' ability to tear space apart, no matter how strong Li Huailin was, it was impossible for him to be that strong. So, it should be …
"Ugh … Ugh …" Just as they were thinking about it, the White Demon God beside them suddenly started trembling. Just as the two of them were wondering what was happening, two huge hands suddenly reached out from the White Demon God's mouth and clamped down on the White Demon God's mouth.
