Chapter 247: Demonic beast appearance (1/2)

Some people from the defender's group were wriggling on the ground. They were bloody all over. Some ran to rescue them and evacuated for healing.

The others were fighting against the smaller monsters. And some evolved creatures fought in the air against the other defenders who were on their flying sticks.

Bang! A loud crash wafted the dust and debris.

Although the attack failed to hit a single target, they were still thrown away by the shockwaves. About seven people rolled a few steps away from their former position.

The cause of the crash was the squirming parts that looked like tentacles. They were everywhere around the Demonic Worm's body.

”Don't stop! Cut the tentacles!”

Yman and Rea heard a loud commanding voice coming from the Senior Leader.

After his command, magical attacks were flying from everywhere towards the giant monster.

The giant monster sent out a loud shrill that created an invisible shield, blocking their attacks before each of them landed on the monster.

The shrill came from the two humanoids on top of the monster since the worm had no mouth.

”Senior Leader, I think we need a high penetrative attack to break its defense!” Yman noticed the woman named Betty shouted.

The Senior Leader squinted his eyes. Damn it, how did such a monster appear here? A demonic beast shouldn't be able to pass it. The Senior Leader wondered.

When they came to check the gateway, the seal wasn't entirely lifted. Although low-level demons could pass through it, the demonic beast shouldn't have.

Then, how a demonic beast is here? Even if it came from outside the campus. It was impossible to enter the campus as it was hidden in a separate space. The Senior Leader pondered.

He then ordered some of his men to fuse their magical energies to create a strong attack that could penetrate the outer shell of the demonic beast.

”Wait, wait, wait, something doesn't feel right.” Rea suddenly said when she noticed something. Yman glanced at her. ”Is something the matter?” Crimson asked her.

”I mean… There shouldn't be a demonic beast here,” Rea replied.

”Because the entrance that connects this world from the outside wasn't here. So if a demonic beast was able to enter here, it should appear to the southeast part of the campus because the entrance was there.” Rea said with knitted brows.

Yman stared at her, seemingly surprised by her words.

”Entrance?” She heard Crimson mutter and repeated the word. Rea then nodded her head.

Just then, he remembered the demon of possession's words inside his dantian when he came to visit.

”By the way, Rea, is it possible to sense the Dark Continent from here?” Yman suddenly asked her, which puzzled her further.

The two of them were still riding on the enhanced bird fire doll, hovering in the air about 50-60 meters away from the ground.

The battle was still ongoing, below them. However, they were at a safe distance from it.

After hearing his question, she sent a glance. ”What do you mean?” Then she asked him.

”If there is a way to sense the Dark Continent from here.”

”That's impossible! Of course not!” She hastily replied. Maybe Crimson thought that the Academy is a gateway to that despicable place. 'Wait, gateway…?' Rea suddenly fell silent.

”I see. Then that--”

”A gateway!” Crimson was not able to finish his words when Rea suddenly yelled.

His eyes narrowed a bit and glanced at her. Then he repeated her word. ”A gateway?”

”Well, I'm not sure if there's one in here, but it's the only possible reason for how the demonic beast was able to enter here. However…”

'A gateway, huh,' he thought but he noticed Rea fell silent. ”However?” He asked.
