Chapter 327 - Spider Queens Scheme! (2/2)

The light coming out of them forced the darkness to recede to the corners and illuminated most of the area.

Elliot finally had a good look at this place. There was a stone stele in the middle. It had weird symbols on it, and he found them very familiar. They shared many similarities with the teleportation inscription he had seen on many other places, such as the wall back in area fourteenth.

They went up to the wall. Freya took a dagger out from her inter-spatial hairpin, grabbed it, and brought it down to her palm. She pressed its sharp end on her soft, defenseless palm, cutting open a slightly deep wound from which her bright red blood flowed out and trickled down to the stone stele.

Drop by drop, Freya's blood dyed the symbol on the stone stele red.

The symbol absorbed her blood and then released a reddish, eerie light. As the ghastly glow receded, a swirling dark hole appeared in the middle of the stele.

”My lord, let's jump into it.”

Freya and Elliot went through it, and their surrounding changed for the better. Here, the environment was still dark, but some luminance orbs hovering on top of thick and tall stands beside the street shed some light on the world.

Several patches of dark flowers grew around the sidewalk on which they were standing.

Elliot's eyes wandered off to the small icy pond near them. In the center of it, he saw a tall 20 feet tall lion. Its mane was on fire, or so he thought before he realized that blue fire was what made its mane!

Freya looked around, and her eye widened, and her body stiffened. There was confusion in her pretty eyes. She tugged at the end of Elliot's clothes.

He turned around and asked her, ”What? Is something wrong?”

She bobbed her head back and forth, and as she didn't want to wake up the sleeping blue-flame lion, she said the following words in a faint noise, ”My lord, I am not familiar with this monster, nor am I familiar with this place. Either It's not a part of the unholy necropolis, or the spider queen had kept this a secret from me. As for this monster, I feel scared just by looking at it. I think it is only slightly weaker than it is like the spider queen. I also feel scared and stiff when I am in her presence.”

Freya could sense that the lord of the ice pond was strong, but Elliot could tell it. The blue-flame lion was a monster that possessed the same mystical fire as the Pill Emperor. It had ice-cold flames. Worst yet, it also had a monster realm that lets it teleport its subordinate directly to anyone in its vision!

It was a lord of a kingdom with tens of thousands of monsters under it, so obviously, this ability was far more than a cheat as it could summon all of them to attack Elliot at any time!
