Everyone felt their hairs stand on end. At this moment, they noticed that thick chains were tied around the bodies of the two Cerberi. The other end of the chains was connected to an ancient war chariot.
A humanoid creature wielding a flaming whip was sitting on the war chariot, driving the two Cerberi around as though they were horses!
The humanoid creature was approximately three meters in size. Compared to the two Cerberi, it was considered extremely small. However, when the whip landed, the Cerberi screamed in pain, not daring to resist.
The humanoid creature sitting on the war chariot gave them the illusion of being at ease. However, upon closer inspection, they were shocked to discover that it had no facial features.
It had no eyes, no nose, no ears, and no mouth. Its pure white face was shrouded in a layer of hazy dark light, making it look like a Fiendgod from myths and legends!
Following closely behind the war chariot were over 30 Rock Hell Little Evil Demons. These Rock Hell Little Evil Demons were slightly larger than those at the periphery, with a faint layer of dark radiance covering their bodies. Clearly, they were stronger than ordinary Rock Hell Little Evil Demons. However, at this moment, they were lined up in two neat rows, running behind the war chariot, appearing as though they were the servants of the faceless god.
This is?
Marguerite!
This was the first name that popped up in everyone's mind.
This fellow was too famous. It wasn't because it had manifested its shadow on Earth during the Age of Darkness, but because one could find the shadow of this kind of faceless demon god by flipping through some ancient books. It was once worshiped by some dark families as a god and worshiped. It was one of the most famous totems of the dark system.
They were actually able to see this mythical creature with their own eyes? This …
Everyone dared to take a deep breath, their bodies drenched in sweat. Even from afar, the pressure emitted by the faceless god, Margaret, was enough to make everyone tremble in fear, making it hard for them to move. This was most likely a terrifying creature of the 5th rank, or even higher. Furthermore, it was one that possessed a high level of intelligence.
Many humans who understood the Dimensional World sighed. It was fortunate that they had the protection of the natural laws. If these monsters were to descend on Earth, it would truly be the dark era for humanity.
It was also fortunate that Sister Hong had given them a timely warning. If they had walked out of the mountain wall that could hide them, they would have been discovered in an open space. If that happened, they wouldn't even know how they died.
Da da da da da …
The Cerberus quickly pulled the chariot and dashed away at an incredible speed, disappearing into the distance.
The threat had been eliminated, but everyone still felt a lingering fear in their hearts. That kind of power was too terrifying. The natural deterrence of a high-leveled lifeform against a low-leveled lifeform made it impossible for anyone to even think of resisting. Wang Zhong felt that although this fellow could not be compared to the legendary level-7 lifeforms he had faced in the Hyperdimension when he was randomly teleported to various dangerous places, it was more realistic. Perhaps he had already become numb to the huge gap between them, but the threat of this monster was indeed real.
After the 'da da' sound disappeared for a while, just as Reynolds was about to make a move, he was stopped by Sister Hong's gaze. Gently shaking her head, it didn't take long for the spectre-like Hell Dog to emerge from the mist. Looking around, its nose sniffed around, only leaving after a long while.
Everyone's bodies were about to turn stiff. What the fuck is this? Frankly speaking, as long as they suppressed their Soul Power, they would basically be concealed by the strong environment. What's more, Sister Hong was proficient in concealment. If they were discovered by these monsters, they would definitely die in this godforsaken place.
After a long deadlock, everyone forcefully endured the corrosion of the darkness energy. Only after confirming that these fellows wouldn't return did they heave a sigh of relief. Wiping off the cold sweat on her forehead, Sister Hong regained her composure and looked towards Gong Yi with lingering fear. "This is … the 2nd layer?"
Without talking about Sister Hong, everyone seemed to have the same thoughts.
The Faceless God and Demon from the legends! Margaret was too terrifying! A legendary life form! If the 2nd layer was filled with such a monster, what was the point of continuing? With everyone's strength, they would just be courting death.
A chill ran down Gong Yi's spine. There wasn't any mention of this in the information he had gathered. Furthermore, there wasn't any mention of the legendary Faceless Devil, Margaret, in any of the records he had read up on the cursed lands. In fact, even the military's information did not mention anything about it.
"It shouldn't belong to the 2nd layer. Can't you see that it's in a hurry? Perhaps it's patrolling or something else." Exhaling, Gong Yi felt that this should be a coincidence. Calming himself down, he continued, "The so-called cursed lands have many layers, with every layer being connected to each other. In the early days, humans were rather cocky when they first occupied this place, as they felt that it wasn't much. In the end, the Evil Demon Legion surged out from beneath the ground …"
Everyone's faces turned slightly ugly. One could imagine how miserable that would be. This was the reason why this place was called the cursed lands. As long as they could defend it, humans would build a dimensional base station. Only by mobilizing the strength of the entire Federation and gathering all of their experts would they be able to contend against the Evil Demon Legion in this godforsaken place. However, what were the benefits?
Throwing people like them here would probably be the most worthwhile.
"I thought that there would be fewer Evil Demon Legion life forms in the 2nd layer. However, if we were to bump into a fellow of this level …"
Everyone felt their scalps turn numb. Although they agreed with Gong Yi's words, they still felt a wave of lingering fear when they thought back to the terrifying pressure they had felt.
"Since we're already here, let's take things as they come. In fact, we already have no path of retreat. Therefore, regardless of what lies ahead, we can only give it a try." said Wang Zhong.
"Little brother is insightful. Risk will always exist, and this is a path of death." Gong Yi had already calmed himself down. Pausing for a moment, he continued, "There's a magma river a few dozen kilometres ahead. There's a hidden path on the mountain wall there that leads directly to the next layer. Let's hurry up. We shouldn't bump into that fellow again on that small path. "
Everyone nodded their heads, not daring to delay any longer. Following Gong Yi, they hurriedly set off. Seeing the worried looks on everyone's faces, Gong Yi took the initiative to mention the Margaret. In fact, this fellow's character might be one that liked to show off its innate talent in memory, and possessed knowledge that exceeded that of ordinary people.
Wang Zhong was very interested. "I've heard that the Faceless Devil Margaret is the totem of some ancient dark families on Earth. There's even a story about how it rose to prominence on Earth. Why does it seem to have become a living creature here?"
Gong Yi nodded his head. "As of now, humanity's understanding of the Hyperdimension is unable to explain it. However, there's one thing that we can be sure of. This is a projection world, just like the pyramids on Earth, the Ancient Qin Palace, the Ancient Imperial Mausoleum and so on. All of them are projected here, but the majority of them have extremely strong spiritual obsessions. As for whether it's the obsessions of humanity that created the projection of the Hyperdimension, or whether some powerful life forms in the Hyperdimension are unable to descend due to the laws of nature, and instead use their spiritual power to affect the dreams of intelligent life forms, imperceptibly influencing them.
