Samantha guessed that the other might have entered a different space.
But which space? That was hard to say. The Wizards’ Realm already had many such spaces, and the Abyss hosted countless more. Therefore, facing such an enemy, Samantha’s first reaction was, “Don’t pay attention to her, let’s leave here immediately.”
Dealing with entities from different spaces wasn’t easy, and there was no need to entangle with them, especially since the other party couldn’t attack the main world from their space.
With this in mind, Samantha and Kanter immediately split up, circling around the woman with the umbrella and running towards the distance.
As she passed the woman with the umbrella, Samantha stole a glance.
She still couldn’t see the full face, but she caught sight of the lower half, especially the lips, which were exquisitely beautiful.
Just as they passed the woman and were about to enter the thick smoke in the distance, a soft, alluring female voice came again: “Drip-drop——”
As the voice fell, Samantha’s Spiritual Sense stirred.
She had not yet disbanded the Glazed Realm, and suddenly she felt a terrible disturbance beneath it.
Samantha paused, then shouted, “No, there’s something underground, be careful!”
But her warning came too late. Two massive tentacles burst through the glazed ground and appeared behind them. With all her might, Samantha somersaulted, rapidly setting Glazed Coordinates in mid-air, stepping on them in mid-air and flipped to land a short distance away.
On the other side, although Kanter heard Samantha’s cries quite late, his skills in self-preservation were exceptional. With a thought, his distinct silhouette blurred as if smeared with water, transforming into a shadowy figure, as if entering a two-dimensional world from a three-dimensional one.
The shadow shifted sideways a few steps, evading the tentacle’s strike, before Kanter’s form solidified from shadow into reality.
Both displayed their abilities and safely dodged the sneak attack, but their expressions did not ease. That’s because the woman ahead had finally revealed her ghastly fangs from behind the cloud of suspicion.
The rain fell like curtains, with no intention of stopping. As the rain hit the ground, accompanied by a crisp pitter-patter, the earth continuously cracked open, and countless tentacles emerged from the ground.
These tentacles were all massive, with barbs and compound eyes, resembling the tentacles of some deep-sea leviathan.
And now, Samantha and Kanter were surrounded by countless tentacles.
They understood why the silhouette of the woman with the umbrella had been flickering around earlier, for she was constructing a cage woven from tentacles!
As the tentacles breached from the ground, the woman with the umbrella, accompanied by a string of laughter, slowly rose into the air.
Or rather… she was escorted by countless tentacles into mid-air, because beneath the woman’s skirt, there were no legs – instead, there were these horrifying tentacles.
It was not until then that Samantha and Kanter could truly see the identity of their adversary.
It was a great Demon.
Earlier, on the floating ice, they had clearly seen the Demon, covered in tentacles, leaving the Void Tower, with an unknown destination. The reason they had not detected her before was that she had hidden her tentacles underground.
Now, baring her teeth, she was fully revealing her form.
Huge and terrifying, filled with endless oppression.
“Drip-drop——” The eerie noise came out again, but this time, Samantha and Kanter realized that it wasn’t the great Demon speaking, but the umbrella in the Demon’s hand.
The umbrella handle opened its tooth-lined mouth, and the “drip-drop” sound of the soft female voice emanated from this mouth.
