When Lawson mentioned it, the others finally noticed something. Around Angor's soul, there were traces of the law of gravity. They quickly realized that Sunders' Gravity Garden was built not long ago.
No matter how jealous they were about Angor's sequence of gravity, they could only sigh. "He's so lucky."
To learn the sequence of laws when the Sorcerer's Garden was built, one would need the right time, place, and people. Angor could only say that he was lucky enough to learn it.
"With the sequence of gravity, he's super fast. No wonder he dared to come to the barrier at this time. But I think there's something wrong with his sequence of gravity. It's inside his soul."
"Even if there's something wrong, it's good enough. Once he becomes a wizard, it won't be a problem anymore. "
"Whether he can become a wizard or not is another story. Maybe he'll die here this time. "
Some people didn't think Angor would win. But in the next second, Angor successfully broke out of the encirclement.
On the screen, Angor pulled his soul back into his body and released a mist illusion, which allowed him to break free from the encirclement and escape. Although this series of actions only took two or three seconds, it was extremely dangerous. Even those who didn't like Sunders couldn't help but praise him.
Angor managed to get away from them for now, but it would not be easy for him to get rid of them.
Everyone looked at Angor on the screen and waited for his next move.
…
While Angor was trying to break out of the encirclement, something unexpected happened at the lava lake.
When the Lord of Tentacles showed up, the apprentices thought they could leave the exit as long as they could. However, they overestimated themselves and underestimated the Lord of Tentacles.
The Lord of Tentacles' body was huge. Under the attacks of Yethew, Shayaron, and the others, it only moved its tentacles from time to time.
This confused the other apprentices, who believed that they could kill the Lord of Tentacles as long as they took it slow.
The abyss it occupied was most likely the exit. The Lord of Tentacles' body was also a treasure. After testing it for a while, the apprentices began to attack the Lord of Tentacles with all their might.
Only a few weak apprentices, such as Loki and Alan, were watching from afar.
The Lord of Tentacles was forced to retreat. Everyone's eyes were red, and they kept getting closer to the Lord of Tentacles. As everyone was getting closer and closer to the abyss, the Lord of Tentacles suddenly squinted its eyes and jumped out of the abyss.
By the time everyone realized that they were too close to the Lord of Tentacles, it was already too late.
This huge octopus-like magical beast let out a strange sound in the air. It seemed to be laughing and mocking at the same time.
Following that, countless tentacles plunged into the lava, turning themselves into a cage and locking most of the apprentices in.
While everyone was panicking, the suckers on the abdomen of the King of Tentacles suddenly spurted out a dark gray mist that was filled with a strange sweet smell.
Amidst the hazy sweet fragrance, the apprentices seemed to be drunk. He began to stagger, and a confused expression appeared on his face. The Lord of Tentacles didn't even need to attack. Instead, they all fell from the sky into the boiling lava.
Apart from a small number of apprentices whose bloodline could resist the lava, most of the apprentices who fell into the lava instantly turned into white bones.
Just this attack alone killed more than half of them.
Only a small number of the apprentices survived. Some of them, like Loki, didn't step into the battlefield.
Shayaron was a master of Air Dance, so he was lucky enough to escape. Before he left, he also took Freud with him. The two of them were breathing heavily outside.
After a long while, Freud finally calmed down. "Thanks."
Shayaron continued, "The Lord of Tentacles has been holding back all this time. Clearly, it wants more people to fall into its attack range so that it can kill them in one hit. And did you notice? There's not a single wound on it. We've been attacking it for more than half an hour, but we didn't even leave a scratch on it! "
Freud noticed it as well. "We can't fight the Lord of Tentacles with brute force."
Freud looked at the apprentices who were still screaming and struggling in the lava lake. "Did we make a mistake? Is there really an exit in the abyss? There's no way Floating Mech City would arrange a dead end. "
Shayaron frowned as well. "Maybe we're wrong. But if it's not here, where is it?"
Freud thought for a moment and looked up.
The sky was dark, and the smoke in the lava area was too thick for them to see clearly.
"The abyss isn't the only dangerous place," Freud suddenly said.
Shayaron looked at him. Freud pointed at the sky with his index finger. "Maybe the exit isn't underground, but in the sky?"
Shayaron suddenly had an idea. "The purification garden is huge. Tens of thousands of people have entered this place, but we've only met so few of them. If the exit was at a fixed location, it would take a long time to get there, not to mention whether other people could find it or not. But if the sky is the exit … we can leave as long as we fly upwards?! "
Freud also thought of this possibility, but he still had some doubts. There were many apprentices who couldn't fly, and Floating Mech City wouldn't kill them all. Maybe there was another way to get to the sky?
"Should we try?"
"Not now." Shayaron narrowed his eyes. "Just keep it to yourself. We'll talk about it after we get out of here. "
While they were talking, the Lord of Tentacles was still slaughtering the apprentices. However, it was still limited to its tentacles.
It was as if the Lord of Tentacles was restricted from moving further than its tentacles. Everyone realized this, but the number of people who managed to escape could still be counted on one hand.
When they first arrived, there were about fifty of them. Now, there were only about ten of them left.
They used to laugh at those who didn't have the strength to enter the lava area, but now, they realized that they were the ones who should be laughing at themselves. Because they didn't have the strength, they saved the apprentices who stayed in the wasteland.
"Dira, we've lost so many of our men! You need to explain yourself! This thing is definitely as strong as a wizard! We can't stop it! Are you trying to kill us? "
"Speak!"
"Don't think that you can do whatever you want just because you're from Floating Mech City …"
Everyone began to point their guns at Dela, trying to get the truth out of him. Some even tried to attack Dela, but the difference in strength was too great. Dela killed several people in a few moves. The survivors were already few, and now they were reduced by half.
No one dared to say anything after seeing Dira's power.
Sinehowze walked to Dira with a smile on her face. "It's about time. I've sent the Staff Elder down. These idiots are useless now. "
The crowd didn't understand what Sinehowze meant until Dira's clothes glowed faintly and he transformed from a handsome man into a beautiful woman in a red soft armor. Their faces darkened as they realized what she meant.
"No wonder big brother Dira didn't say anything. It's not big brother Dira, it's big sister Dira." A childish voice came from behind.
Loki, who was riding a white rhinoceros, pointed at Carveline, who had "transformed into a woman," in surprise.
"I'm not big sister Dira, little brother. My name is Carveline." Carveline had a good impression of Loki and the apprentices after what happened outside the wasteland. After talking to Loki, she looked at the other person on the white rhinoceros, the chubby boy Alan.
"Hey, Gourmet apprentice, I was really hungry just now. I really wanted to eat your grilled fish. Unfortunately, I didn't want to expose myself at that time. Now, I'm free. Do you have time to grill fish again? "
Alan came to the purification garden for no reason. He was still thinking about the death of so many people, so he didn't answer Carveline's question right away.
Sinehowze, on the other hand, looked at Alan curiously. "Hey, I didn't know there's another Gourmet apprentice here. You're only a level-1 apprentice, aren't you? "
Alan finally realized what was going on. He asked Sinehowze shyly, "Are you a Gourmet apprentice as well, pretty lady?"
Sinehowze nodded. "Of course. I'm here to collect ingredients."
As soon as she finished speaking, an old man with a staff appeared beside Sinehowze in a blink of an eye.
The apprentices recognized him immediately. He was the one who attacked the Lord of Tentacles with Shayaron's group.
"I remember that old man fell into the abyss because of the gray mist, right?" Someone murmured. "How come he's here now?"
"You still don't understand? This old man is obviously with them. We'll distract the Lord of Tentacles while he sneaks into the Abyss. "It was Yethew who spoke. He was standing on a flying insect and hovering next to Freud. Yethew was a man who cherished his life a lot. He stayed far away from the Lord of Tentacles and controlled his flying insects to attack. That was how he survived.
The apprentices thought for a moment and understood what Yethew meant. They looked at Sinehowze and Carveline with even more hostility.
"Did you get it, Staff Elder?" Sinehowze didn't care what others thought of her. Her eyes lit up when she saw the old man.
The Staff Elder nodded with a smile and handed a small pouch to Sinehowze.
"Here's the reward for dinner. Thank you for your hospitality."
After he finished speaking, the figure of the elder holding the staff slowly faded away and finally disappeared …
While everyone was still puzzled, Yethew's unpleasant and cold voice sounded. "What did you steal from the Abyss with our power? You have to show us. If it's something related to the exit, don't you think you're being too greedy? "
Yethew's mention of "exit" attracted everyone's attention, and they all looked at Sinehowze.
Even Hermes, the strongest of them all, looked at her. Sinehowze could ignore the other apprentices, but not Hermes. Neither she nor Carveline were confident that they could kill Hermes.
Hermes also asked, "Now that we're the only ones left, I hope you can tell us the truth. Is there an exit under the abyss? And what's in that pouch? "
"Do you still need me to tell you if there's an exit at the bottom of the abyss? I didn't go down there. Isn't that proof enough? " Sinehowze continued, "As for what's in the pouch, it's not like I can't show you. If I say it's an ingredient, then it's an ingredient. It's the egg of the Lord of Tentacles, one of the ingredients I use for cooking. "
While the apprentices were still looking at her suspiciously, the situation suddenly changed.
A ferocious roar came from the abyss!
