There was a precipitous greyish-white stone mountain around 5 kilometers west of Rodu. This area was rich in stone, and it was said that the city of Rodu had been built from the stones dug up here to construct its tall city walls.
There was also a legend surrounding this lone stone mountain. It was said that when the craftsmen dug up this mountain, the stone suddenly became extremely hard, and even the most resolute iron tools were unable to budge this mountain.
This incident alerted the king of the Roth Empire, and he issued a special order to preserve this mountain, which was why it was known as the Amnesty Mountain.
Due to the fact that the mountain was completely bare, and there were no beasts in the surrounding area, even birds were quite rare on this mountain, let alone magic beasts.
There was an inky-black cave near the summit of the mountain. The entrance of the cave was slightly slanted, so it was almost impossible to see the entrance from the foot of the mountain.
Of course, there wasn't even a single blade of grass growing in a place like this, so no one would risk their lives to climb it.
The torrential rain was washing away at the greyish-white mountain rocks, but even the craftsmen couldn't do anything about them, so they naturally wouldn't be washed away by the rain. The only sound that could be heard was the pitter-patter of raindrops falling onto the stone walls, and not even the cries of birds or beasts could be heard.
Right at this moment, two streaks of purple light suddenly lit up within the inky-black cave, illuminating the outside of the cave like two bolts of lightning.
A bolt of lightning flashed past, illuminating half of the sky and illuminating the inky-black cave.
A gargantuan creature slowly rose to its feet, and it flapped its retracted wings slightly, sending dirt and gravel tumbling all over the ground. The gargantuan creature slowly made its way toward the entrance of the cave, and the two streaks of purple light also became brighter and brighter, as if they were two lamps.
The black figure stood at the entrance of the cave, and it cast its gaze toward Rodu as it let loose a low roar.
Another bolt of lightning flashed past.
On this occasion, the gargantuan creature standing at the entrance of the cave finally revealed its true form. It was a massive griffin!
Its body was covered in dust, and it looked as if it had just rolled through mud. It was very difficult to imagine how such a gargantuan creature with a wingspan of over 10 meters had been able to fit into such a cramped cave.
Even so, it was still giving off an intimidating aura as it stood at the entrance of the cave with its wings curled up.
"Awoo!!!"
The Lion Condor suddenly raised its head and let out a resonant roar. Purple light burst out from its eyes like two bright stars, especially dazzling!
The gryphon's curled wings spread open with a snap, accompanied by the crisp sound of bones cracking. With a flap of its wings, the violent rainstorm was pushed back, piercing into the curtain of rain like a sharp sword.
The dust was washed away by the storm, revealing the dazzling purple scales and wings. Even in the darkness, there was still light flowing around. The huge purple lion head looked quite majestic, but in between its eyebrows, there was a conspicuous black scar.
With every flap of its wings, it would appear several hundred meters away, flying rapidly toward Rodu like a dark night specter.
Over there, there was an aura that he was extremely familiar with.
In order to wait for him, it had been lying dormant here for three years. Finally, he appeared again.
…
After pulling his sword out of the forest troll's glabella, Meg kicked off the troll's shoulder and slashed his sword toward the two octopus legs that were hurtling toward him.
The sharp blade of his sword sliced through the two octopus legs as easily as slicing through tofu. The legs fell to the ground with a thud, but they were still bouncing around with their eyes blinking in a frenzy, as if they were unwilling to die just like that.
Meanwhile, the giant octopus didn't seem to have been affected in the slightest. Its flesh squirmed violently, and in the blink of an eye, two identical octopus legs grew out again. A series of eyeball-like pink lumps of flesh appeared on its legs, but they hadn't become actual eyeballs yet.
Meg's expression was a little grim. This giant octopus that even a non-trypophobic person like him was feeling a little uncomfortable wasn't a real octopus. Instead, it was a type of Heavenly Void Beast known as the Eye Beast.
This type of Heavenly Void Beast only existed in the void. Its body was massive, and it had an extremely freakish regenerative ability. If it couldn't be slain with a single strike, it was virtually immortal.
The most terrifying thing about the Eye Beast wasn't its regenerative ability. Instead, it was the tens of thousands of eyeballs on its body.
No creature would be able to remain calm when being stared at by so many eyeballs at the same time. In the instant that they lost their composure, they would be controlled by the Eye Beast and become its slave.
Even in the Heavenly Void Demon Race, there were very few people who could find Eye Beasts in the void and tame them as mounts or helpers.
Eye Beasts of this size were no weaker than normal 10th-tier powerful beings. Furthermore, due to their freakish regenerative ability and the fact that they could take advantage of a situation at any time, they were even more troublesome to deal with.
As for why Meg knew so much about them, that was because Alex had just so happened to have killed an Eye Beast in the past, and he had also crippled that spatial demon in passing.
If Meg's deduction was correct, then that 9th-tier spatial demon was most likely the son of this spatial demon known as the spatial demon patriarch.
Meg had the experience of killing the Eye Beast, and Meg also had the power to reach the pinnacle, but …
"You don't have much time left, so keep it up, Host!"
The system's urgent voice sounded in Meg's mind, and Meg could even see a small red light flashing on his chest.
"System, do you think Ultraman is fighting monsters?! Why don't you give me an Ultraman Beam? "Meg rolled his eyes, but he knew that he didn't have much time left.
However, this Eye Beast and the spatial demon patriarch on its head were far more troublesome to deal with than those guys from before.
There weren't that many 10th-tier powerful beings on the Norland Continent, but there were still around 100 of them.
Among them, there was naturally a huge disparity in power.
Gajeel and the other 10th-tier beings who had attacked Irina earlier could only be considered as normal 10th-tier beings. However, people like Crassus, Julian, and the spatial demon patriarch on the Eye Beast's head could easily defeat normal 10th-tier beings, so they were on a completely different level altogether.
Alex was naturally one of the most powerful beings among these beings, and he didn't fear any of them in a one-on-one battle.
However, there was virtually no chance that Meg would be able to defeat the spatial demon patriarch and the Eye Beast within three minutes.
This was because there was a good chance that he wouldn't be able to touch the Eye Beast during those three minutes.
No matter how powerful he was, he was still standing on the ground.
In contrast, the Eye Beast could even tear through space to teleport in the air.
Time passed by second after second, and even though Meg's expression remained calm and collected, his heart was thumping faster and faster.
He stared intently at the Eye Beast with a sharp gaze. If it left the ground, then he would only have one chance to kill it. If he couldn't kill it, then he wouldn't be able to return alive.
"Alex, where's your little purple bird?" The spatial demon patriarch looked down at Meg with a sinister smile on his face, and said, "Without it, you're nothing more than a bug on the ground. You crippled my son, so I'm going to let you have a taste of what it's like to watch Irina get humiliated."
A series of octopus legs that were several tens of meters in length surged toward Meg and Irina, and their dead fish eyes blinked in a frenzy as if they were demons that had just caught the scent of food.
