Chapter 388: Standing By
Several figures could be seen fighting within a vast, dimly lit room.
The figures’ movements were erratic, colliding in the air while flashing across the room.
Their battle was fierce, with its mere aftermath destroying a large part of the land around them.
Within just a few minutes, the entire room had been devastated.
Only a certain corner remained unaffected, though it was unknown if this was an accident or if the figures were consciously avoiding it.
A small formation could be seen engraved in that corner, and the runes surrounding it flashed with extraordinary brilliance.
The light made it impossible for one to glimpse its interior.
Only the faint outline of a massive tree could be seen, as well as a small square-shaped object lying beside it.
Suddenly, one of the figures fighting staggered, and their movements paused.
The opponents besieging them didn’t miss the opportunity.
They all attacked them at the same time, sending them flying and seriously injuring them.
Their blood splattered across the room, creating a sea of blood below, which tried to corrupt the floor and the walls.
Neither of the two warring parties paid any attention to this, though.
Several tall creatures resumed the siege of their opponent, injuring them severely and causing more and more of their blood to drip onto the ground.
This was the scene Liora witnessed upon entering the room.
The moment she went through the entrance, she immediately activated Silent Domain to conceal both her and Alpha’s traces.
Once she made sure that neither of the two parties discovered them, she found a relatively remote location and began to survey the room. Most importantly, she surveyed the fighting figures.
She recognized both of the parties.
On one side stood an elderly Greater Devil whom she had seen before the teleportation. His face was filled with wrinkles, while his body smelled of death, as if he were at the end of his lifespan.
For a Greater Devil, whose lifespan was extremely long, this was a rare situation. Thus, Liora remembered him.
The people facing the elderly Devil were several undead creatures, resembling those she had met while on the way.
It was just that, unlike those she had previously killed with ease, the ones besieging the elderly Devil were now several times stronger.
All of them possessed strength at the Greater Devil stage, and working together, could fight against someone at the Indestructible Soul stage.
The elderly Greater Devil was only at the Indestructible Body stage.
Although more powerful than an individual undead, he found himself at a disadvantage soon after the battle began.
Seeing this, Liora understood why nobody had discovered her and Alpha’s arrival.
It was not only because these people were focused on their fight, but also because they were fairly weak.
Realizing this, Liora didn’t rush to take action but instead continued scanning her surroundings.
The appearance of a room meant that the situation was abnormal.
"This guy has been fighting for quite a while."
"It’s just that in the past, the fight only lasted for a brief moment, and he quickly fled, perhaps because his opponents were all weak."
"It’s only now, when he has found someone who could match him, that he stopped moving through the maze."
Liora noticed that a powerful formation covered the room.
It allowed entry to the people from outside, but prohibited leaving to the creatures within.
Liora sensed that she could break through the suppression if she took action, but someone at the Indestructible Body had no such ability.
"No wonder this person has not tried to escape. It’s not that he doesn’t want to, but because he can’t.
