Chapter 265

Just as Shien, Ai Yi, and Jacinta decided on their course of action and split up, they didn't know that something was happening by the vast lake in the deepest part of the canyon.

Roar —!

The terrifying monster finally couldn't take it any longer and stopped pestering the alchemy demons that were throwing themselves at it. Instead, it let out a pained roar and flapped its wings abruptly, stirring up strong gales that blew away countless alchemy demons. At the same time, it got rid of the fearless alchemy demons and flew into the sky.

Looking at this scene, Vasco, who had been watching from afar, grimaced.

The nobles around him reacted the same way.

"Sh * t!"

"It's escaping!"

"It … It can't be?"

"It actually has the consciousness to resist and escape …?!"

The crowd of nobles cried out in surprise.

They didn't expect this situation at all.

Logically speaking, no matter how powerful a monster was, it should have been affected by the Demon Refinement Ritual and lost its mind, not to mention that it had killed so many Demon Refiners and absorbed so much of their magic power and flesh.

Under such circumstances, it should have fallen into complete madness and become the most powerful alchemy demon in the Adol Canyon.

Then, after it devoured all the alchemy demons in the canyon, the best offering would be born.

By then, the young demon that consumed the offering would definitely become unprecedentedly powerful, which was what Vasco and the others wanted to see.

But now, not only was this terrifying monster resisting the influence of the ritual, but it was also resisting the fusion of the alchemy demons and even escaping. This was truly out of everyone's expectations.

"Hurry! Stop it! "

Vasco's expression changed abruptly as he ordered loudly.

The surrounding nobles and Knights reacted immediately. After hesitating for a moment, they began to release magic spells at the massive monster that was about to fly into the air.

A series of spells bombarded the demonic creature's body, but it didn't have much of an effect on it.

After all, their magic levels weren't high, and none of them had mastered high-level magic spells. Naturally, they couldn't affect the terrifying monster that was at least level 90.

If it weren't for the surrounding alchemy demons, the monster would have taken it as a provocation and slaughtered Vasco and the others.

It was a pity that the monster was trying its best to maintain its rationality and didn't have the strength to do anything else.

At that moment, the monster flew into the air, withstanding the fierce attacks of the alchemy demons and the bombardment of magic spells from Vasco and the others. It flapped its wings and flew away without a care for anything else.

"Caw!"

"Roar!"

"Roar!"

With their biggest target gone, the alchemy demons immediately slaughtered one another, ignoring the monster that had chosen to escape.

"Bastard!"

Vasco was furious.

"Sir Vasco!"

"The monster flew away!"

"What should we do?"

The group of nobles immediately began to ask in fear.

Vasco spoke without hesitation.

"Vasco of the Battle. Vasco coldly said, "With the Alchemy Ritual here, that monster won't be able to leave the canyon. As long as we find it and continue to attack it, it won't be able to hold on for long."

Hearing this, the group of nobles hesitated again.

In terms of strength, the strongest among them wasn't even level 60. They couldn't help but hesitate when facing a super powerful monster that was level 90.

The reason why they dared to find trouble with the monster was that they didn't have to face it head-on. All they had to do was carry out the ritual and lure the alchemy demons over for it to slaughter.

But now, they had to take the initiative to chase after such a terrifying existence. They couldn't help but hesitate.

"What? Are you afraid? " Vasco said sarcastically. "If you're afraid, go back now and beg for mercy from the kingdom. You might even be stripped of your title and spend the rest of your life in prison."

Vasco's words made the nobles realize something.

Yes, they couldn't turn back.

Choosing to participate in this plan and helping the Old Demons carry out the Battle of the Demon Refinement Ritual in the kingdom was a heinous crime.

Now, they could only continue down this path, and that was to nurture the young Demon Dwellers. After they had their revenge, they could use the powerful young Demon Dwellers to restrain and even control the kingdom.

Apart from this, they had no other choice.

Realizing this, the nobles gritted their teeth, nodded, and agreed to Vasco's suggestion.

Only then did Vasco let out a cold laugh and lead everyone in the direction the monster had left in.

…

On the other side, Vivian and the others had already recovered their stamina and mana after some rest.

Lumia and Merica had already woken up and were surrounding Vivian and Tierre.

Although they looked uneasy, they weren't afraid.

Obviously, like Vivian, they didn't think that Tierre was the one who implicated them.

In fact, since Tierre was in such a situation, they had to stand up for her no matter how dangerous it was.

"Tierre used to take care of us …"

"This time, it's our turn to help Tierre."

The two young girls said firmly.

This moved Tierre, and at the same time, she made up her mind to protect her companions at all costs.

Vivian, on the other hand, had already adjusted her state of mind. She clapped her hands and said to the ladies.

"Everyone, our top priority now is to find a way to leave the Adol Canyon." Vivian said solemnly. "Only by leaving the canyon can we be temporarily safe until we return to the royal capital."

Lumia and Merica nodded solemnly.

Only Tierre didn't look too good.

"It won't be easy," Tierre said in a low voice. "I can feel that the air in the canyon seems to be different."

Both Vivian and Lumia were taken aback by his words.

Obviously, the two of them didn't notice anything wrong.

Only Merica immediately raised her hand.

"That's right, I've been feeling this way since I woke up." Just like Tierre, Melica didn't look too good. She said fearfully, "There's a strange flow of magic power in the canyon. It's making me very uncomfortable."

As an elf born from nature, Merica felt uncomfortable with the air and mana in the canyon.

"It … It seems that something terrible is happening." Merica crossed her arms and said while shivering, "Everyone, let's leave this canyon as soon as possible."

This statement made the expressions of all the women become dignified.

Unfortunately, in the next second, Tierre's expression changed. She suddenly stood up and stood in front of everyone.

Vivian did the same. She raised her shield without hesitation and stood in front of everyone.

Then …

"You still want to leave? Don't even think about it! "

Accompanied by such a smug and evil laughter, a noble appeared with a large number of people.

It was Jorido.

"This time, let's see how you can escape."

Jorido sneered.

All the nobles and knights around him also released a cold murderous aura.

This scene caused the faces of Vivian's team to darken.

Tierre felt it even more clearly.

Perhaps, this would be the place where she would die.

…

At the same time, two figures entered the depths of the canyon at an astonishing speed.

"Faster." Ai Yi flapped her dragon wings and flew in front. Her expression suddenly changed as she said, "Those girls don't seem to be in good condition."

Shien immediately raised his head.

A cold light flashed in his eyes.
