”Really? Are some dogs really that strong?” Zhao Manyan wondered aloud.
”It was a Cerberus with three heads, each with a different Element. Its body was very strong, too. Mu Ningxue and I fought a Dreadful Curse Cerberus on Fanxue Mountain. Its Curse Element was insanely powerful. I almost died to its Dreadful Curse Glare,” Mo Fan said, recalling the battle.
If Mu Ningxue was not around, he would definitely have struggled against the Dreadful Curse Cerberus. It was one of the strongest Commander-level creatures he had encountered so far!
”Mo Fan, do the Cerberi have dark blue flames under their paws?” Mu Bai's voice came from the other side of the hall.
”How did you know? Have you seen one before? They are actually quite rare!” Mo Fan answered, astonished.
Mu Bai fell silent briefly before the hall was suddenly filled with cold air, followed by huge ice chains coming from Mu Bai's direction, intertwining in the air.
Mu Bai nimbly leapt between the ice chains. Mo Fan was wondering what Mu Bai was up to so suddenly when he saw three heads rising into the air and smashing through the ice chains. They were clearly trying to swallow Mu Bai!
Dark brown bodies engulfed in flames, a demonic aura, with dark blue Hellflame under their paws. Mo Fan abruptly recognized the Hellish Cerberus!
Mo Fan belatedly understood why Mu Bai knew what a Cerberus looked like. One was right in front of him!
”Cerberus, it's a Hellish Cerberus!” Mo Fan yelled.
”There's one over here, too!” Meos yelled from behind Mo Fan.
Mo Fan was initially going to lend Mu Bai a hand, but he realized there was a Cerberus behind him, too! These Hellish Cerberi came out of nowhere when least expected. Their group had no choice but to run for their lives in the spacious hall!
”How many are there?” Mo Fan asked.
”At least a few! Let's split up for now!”
They were afraid of being surrounded and engaging the enemy in close combat. The first thing that came to their minds when being ambushed was to first run away. They could not afford to stay in the same spot before knowing how many Hellish Cerberuses there were. They would have no chance of escaping if they were trapped!
Luckily, the group was made up of elite Mages. Even if they did not have reliable spells to flee for their lives, they could still rely on their expensive magic Equipment!
Mo Fan looked around him and saw dark blue flames everywhere. He had already seen at least four Hellish Cerberi in passing. The hall was simply too huge in scale. There were lots of stone caskets, statues, and pillars in addition to the huge altar at the center, allowing these Hellish Cerberi to hide from the group's view!.
”Old Wolf, go and help Mu Bai!” Mo Fan told the Flying Creek Snow Wolf.
The Flying Creek Snow Wolf enjoyed fighting alongside Mu Bai because of his Ice Element. His Ice Domain could awaken the Flying power of the Flying Creek Snow Wolf's bloodline. Without it, the Flying Creek Snow Wolf was only as strong as a Hellish Cerberus. He might even struggle to take on a Hellish Cerberus alone!
Mu Bai finally had a chance to use his magic when the Flying Creek Snow Wolf came to his aid. He turned around and cast an Advanced Ice Spell. An enormous Icebound Coffin descended from above and landed close to one of the Hellish Cerberi.
