"What?!" This was a female voice that suddenly raised the pitch of her voice. "Damn it, why does it have to be now … Alright, I understand."
Kanter watched as Sennefer came out of the darkness.
"Kanter, Maher sent me a message. Tell Samantha to come back. We have to retreat. "Sennefer's fiery eyes were filled with confusion and helplessness.
Kanter had been paying attention to Samantha, but he still heard the conversation between Sennefer and Maher. Something must have happened to Rasudran.
"Got it." Kanter didn't ask for the reason right away. Instead, he used his senses to locate Samantha on the other side of the building.
At this time, Samantha was standing on a high ground, looking down at the Prey Hall from above. Samantha's figure was outlined by the dim fire in the sky.
"Samantha, there's a change in the situation. Come back." Someone whispered to Samantha with a gust of wind.
Samantha frowned. She was sent to the other side of the building to observe the situation. Why was she told to retreat so soon?
While Samantha was puzzled, she suddenly felt a gaze sweep over her.
When he looked down, he saw a figure standing in front of a window in the Prey Hall. Through the glass window, she could see that it was a figure in a fiery red robe. Although she couldn't see its face, Samantha knew that it must be the one who looked at her.
"Fire-servant," Samantha whispered in her mind.
Sennefer had run into it before, but she was in a terrible condition at the time. Instead of fighting it, she retreated.
Samantha thought that the Fire-servant would come out and fight her after discovering her. However, to Samantha's surprise, the Fire-servant Demon only glanced at her before looking away.
Then, Samantha felt that the Fire-servant's gaze seemed to be looking in another direction before it disappeared from the window.
Samantha didn't understand why the fire-servant didn't do anything if it knew she was there.
Rustle, rustle, rustle —
Suddenly, Samantha heard a faint sound coming from afar. Upon closer inspection, it seemed to be the place where the Fire-servant Demon had been staring at.
Samantha looked in that direction, but there was nothing unusual as far as her eyes could see. Further away, it was pitch-black due to the lack of light.
Although she could not see what was happening, Samantha somehow felt that some kind of hidden danger was gradually growing in the darkness.
"Samantha?" Kanter's voice came again in the night wind, with doubt and urgency.
Only then did Samantha withdraw her gaze. Her figure gradually turned into a glass shadow and disappeared from the highland. After a while, the Colored Glass Shadow walked back to the crossroad with graceful steps.
As soon as Samantha showed up, she noticed that Sennefer and Kanter's expressions had changed.
"What happened?"
Before Sennefer could answer, Samantha noticed that the Bi 'an sound was getting louder and louder. Soon, it turned into a thunderous rumble that caused the ground to tremble.
Samantha turned around abruptly to look at the source of the sound. All she could see were rocks rolling down from the mountains affected by the earthquake, and in the distant darkness, a high wall made of dust was surging in the darkness.
"What's going on?"
Sennefer answered Samantha's question in the next second. "Maher told me that the main rune hub of Demon City has been destroyed. Rasudran … is going to meet its end."
Before Samantha could recover from her shock, the frequency of the earthquake increased even more.
"We have to evacuate. The outer perimeter of Rasudran is collapsing, and the collapse is spreading," Sennefer said. Sennefer said quickly. "At this rate, it won't take more than a few minutes for this place to fall into the Void!"
Samantha could also feel that the spatial energy around them was becoming restless. If they waited until the ground caved in before retreating, just the chaotic spatial energy alone would be enough to tear everything apart before the danger of the collapse.
Samantha understood the urgency of the situation. Before the spatial energy reached them, the three of them flew up into the sky.
On their way back to the floating ice, Samantha saw countless demons flying out of the dark void below. They were all hiding in another dimension. Now that the dimension was collapsing, they had no choice but to leave and return to Rasudran to seek survival.
In this moment of life and death, the demons no longer cared about humans or anything else. Even when they saw Samantha and the others in the sky, they pretended not to see them.
Like birds and beasts, they flew towards the central region in a dense pack.
Samantha did not attack them. Instead, she turned to Sennefer. "The Hall of Prey is closer to the collapse. They —"
"Look behind you and you'll see." Sennefer pointed behind Samantha.
Samantha looked behind her. The Hall of Prey was already far away from them. From afar, it looked like a miniature toy house. Suddenly, a streak of flame shot out of the Hall of Prey.
It was fast, and its target was clear. Like the demons from before, it was the center of Rasudran.
Samantha could not see what was inside the streak of flame, but it was obvious that it was the demons from the Hall of Prey. Maybe Olucia was among them as well.
Samantha finally realized why the Fire-servant Demon didn't attack her when she saw it. They were ready to evacuate. They did not want to risk anything.
"If the situation doesn't change, the center of the city …" Samantha looked at the Void Tower in the distance. "That will be the final battlefield!"
…
From the perspective of the Void, Rasudran looked like a building block that was gradually collapsing.
However, the building block was now surrounded by a fireball. The fireball was like a birdcage. No one could get out of it, and no one could get in.
Below Rasudran was a vortex that connected to the center of the city.
At this time, many shadows flew out of the vortex. They were all different shapes and sizes. Under the light of the Flaming Bird Cage, Samantha could see that they all looked like ferocious demons.
The arrival of the throne signified the birth of a lord. It was a grand occasion for the entire Barren Plane.
Countless demons crawled out of the vortex and surrounded the Flaming Bird Cage as if they were on a pilgrimage. They could not see what was inside the cage, but none of them left. They were all waiting outside for the moment when the cage was removed.
The Flaming Birdcage stood quietly in the void. Even though many people hadn't come personally, the changes here had attracted their attention.
On the surface of the Abyss, inside the Unmelting Ice Valley.
Inside the palace on the cliff, Oderklas was sitting on a crystal chair in his black robe. He looked up at the painting on the wall.
In the mural, there was a Frost Dragon as white as jade. It was Pina Jonas.
His eyes were filled with longing as if he was a devout worshipper looking at a statue in a church.
After an unknown amount of time, Oderklas looked away from the painting and saw a flame mark appearing in the cold palace out of nowhere.
It looked exactly the same as the one on Angor's ear.
Using the mark, Oderklas saw the Flaming Bird Cage in the void. When Oderklass saw the birdcage, he knew that a throne was about to descend.
Despite knowing that the throne was related to fire, Oderklas did not show any change in expression. His aura was still as calm as ever.
"Is this a coincidence, or are you plotting something?" Oderklas looked up at the painting again. For a moment, he thought he saw a human artist whispering into his ear.
After a long time, he heard a sigh in the palace. Then, the palace returned to its usual silence.
In the cemetery of the Land of Rest, melodious music reverberated in this space that was shrouded in the longest night of the old times.
But all of a sudden, the music stopped.
Inside a small bar in the center of the graveyard, Balalaika put down her crystal harp and looked at the void. She was still far away, but she could still see the Flaming Bird Cage.
Balalaika exhaled a cloud of smoke from her mouth. Then, a strange yet charming voice spoke slowly, "The vision of the Abyss Demon Eye is to remain standing for eternity. Haha, a good vision. But it's already hard enough to make itself immortal, let alone make a city last forever. "
"By the way, that kid is still inside, right? Tsk tsk, an interesting human. I don't know if he can come out alive. "
In the deeper void, in a place that was infinitely far away from Rasudran.
A door of light cut through the lightless night.
Galal walked out of the door of light and looked at the dark void in front of him. With a slight fluctuation, a green flame lit up in the pitch-black world.
This green flame was the exact same color as Olucia's eyes.
"Galal, I know why you're here." There was no sound. There was only a ripple that slowly spread out, but it made the newcomer slowly lower his head.
"I didn't expect the Deep Lord to seize the power of the Abyss Demon Eye at this time."
At this point, Galal could clearly feel a trace of desire in the flame in front of him.
"Galal, you should go."
Galal nodded and was about to turn and leave. But at this time, the existence in the void suddenly said, "Take it with you."
A light flashed, and in front of the green flame, there was a figure standing out of thin air.
When Galal saw this figure, a trace of surprise appeared in his calm eyes.
