Out in the garden, Mo Fan and Bai Tingting stared at the building before them with blank faces.

The vines coiling around the building began to wriggle as if they had come alive. It looked like they were trying to compete for the food they had just discovered.

It was their first time seeing such a sight, as most magicians were used to treating plants as something harmless. Even when the place was overgrown with vines, they were only keeping an eye out for anything alive. They had never expected that the entire plant was in fact a demon beast, and its vines and branches were as deadly as weapons!

”What should we do now? They are being trapped inside!” Bai Tingting exclaimed urgently.

The thick plant looked sturdier than the concrete walls. The group had already ventured deep into the building, so it would be extremely difficult for them to barge their way out. After all, the situation was similar to them jumping into a giant beast's esophagus.

”Look up.” Mo Fan pointed at the second layer of the Administration Building, which was the giant structure above the base.

Bai Tingting raised her head and felt her scalp going numb.

She could see a giant, hideous brain sticking out from the structure!

The brain did not look the same as an animal's, but similar to the shape of a tree stool. If it weren't for the huge mouth that had suddenly opened up, no one would assume it to be something alive.

The stump-shaped brain t took up almost the entire second layer. Its endless vines were like nutrition pipes connected to its throat. From afar, it looked like a demon covered in tree skins sucking at something!

”A Pseudomorphing Demon Beast!” Bai Tingting took a deep breath. She experienced a tremendous shock, as it was her first time seeing such a monster with her own eyes.

”Can someone tell me if this thing is a plant or a demon beast?” Mo Fan subconsciously took a step backward.

The thing was literally a demon. It was using the Administration Building as its disguise, and the place looked so calm and peaceful, luring other things to use it as a temporary rest stop.

The fact that there were no demon beasts roaming nearby was a clear indication that this place was extremely dangerous. Anything that was alive would surely find themselves falling into the demon's stomach, as it was basically a master of disguise. The unwary all ended up as nutrients for its growth!

”It's considered a demon beast with a purer lineage, extremely difficult to deal with once it's mature. Since it is scared of light, it will only reside in gloomy places... Somehow the Administration Building has become its natural habitat, which it could attach to as it grows, perfect for blocking the sunlight. Its preys would present themselves conveniently...” Bai Tingting was surely the top student in the subject of studying demon beasts. She had managed to recognize a species that even the public had rarely heard of from the official channels.

”I hope it's not Commander-level… I'll try attacking it with my fire.” Mo Fan said.

”Don't provoke it. Fire isn't very effective against it. Even double the size of our team has no chance against a Pseudomorphing Demon Beast.” Bai Tingting immediately stopped him.

”So they're pretty much dead?” Mo Fan was stunned.

”Most likely, they would be wiped out within ten minutes if the team did not have a Light Magician,” Bai Tingting frowned.

She had decided to stay because of Mo Fan, as she had a rather good impression of the man who had saved her life. To her surprise, the random thought she had had prevented her from stepping into such a terrifying trap.

They was nothing the two could do. They would be committing suicide if they went inside. They could only wait and reinforce the group if managed to reach the entrance.

Mo Fan felt his heart sinking.

He could not care less about most of the others, but that did not include Mu Ningxue, Mu Nujiao, and Zhao Manting.
