"[Northern Fury] has fallen, and the corpse is right there."
Lis pointed to the nearby corpse, indicating that he was not exaggerating.
Stephens just glanced at it, let out a slight sigh, then turned his gaze toward the "Lukar" in midair, and said to Lis,
"I'll deal with that person. Can you handle the Demon's Gate?"
Lis replied confidently, without a hint of hesitation.
"Oh? It seems you've made quite the gains recently!"
Stephens was somewhat surprised. He had planned to give Lis a magic item to deal with the Demon's Gate, but he didn't expect his disciple to have the confidence to handle it alone.
If Lis knew what Judgement Flame was thinking, he might deeply regret it.
Jokingly, wouldn't that be like getting a powerful magic item for free?
"Then good, I'll leave this to you!"
Stephens nodded, took out the Legendary Wand [Gaia's Fury], and a dazzling Magic Light descended on Lis.
[You have received a magic buff from the Legendary Arcanist, Fran Sphinx!]
[You have acquired the special status [Stephens' Forced Teleportation Technique]!]
[[Stephens' Forced Teleportation Technique]: When the spell target is about to receive a fatal injury, forcibly shatter the surrounding space and teleport the spell target to the spellcaster's side. This skill is unaffected by any spatial restrictions, blockades, freezes, or other negative effects from anything with a Rank lower than the spellcaster. Duration: 24 hours]
Invincible, powerful!
Lis looked at the effects of the Space Magic he had acquired, which was practically a lifesaving Divine Skill.
With the Rank of a Legendary Arcanist, it would be nearly impossible for anyone to restrict Lis from using Space Transmission to escape in the Gaia World.
Lis's desire for higher-end, more powerful knowledge grew stronger and stronger.
Knowledge, to an Arcanist, is strength!
Stephens said one last time before his figure instantly vanished.
In the next moment, he appeared opposite Lukar in midair.
"Another strong opponent so soon? Impressive!"
Lukar narrowed his eyes at the man who had suddenly appeared. He didn't feel any fluctuation of strength from him.
But being able to suddenly appear before him, hovering in midair, this meant only that he himself had failed to perceive it.
However, outwardly he was Lukar, but inwardly he was Demogorgon, and he was not concerned; even after using a special method to enter the Gaia World and occupy this body, the suppression of the Abyss Lords by the world of Gaia did not disappear.
Earlier, he could use the soul qi of Lukar to conceal his presence, but now that he had exposed his strength, the world's suppression on him became increasingly heavy.
Furthermore, this body only possessed a very small portion of his strength. Anyways, the purpose of this body had now been fulfilled. Although it was not as good as expected, it was still somewhat satisfactory.
"Are you Demogorgon?"
Stephens didn't beat around the bush and directly asked, casually dispersing the bloodlight swirling around Lukar's body.
"That may not necessarily be the case!"
Lukar spread his hands, his handsome face bearing a sickly smile.
"Possibly I am Bafement, or Coschechi, or even Jupiter Lex!"
Stephens didn't care in the slightest. As a Legendary Arcanist, he naturally knew what the names mentioned by Lukar stood for.
The [Faceless King] Jupiter Lex, the Lord of the 222nd layer of the Endless Abyss.
The [Beast Howl Lord] Bafement, Lord of the 600th layer of the Endless Abyss.
[Tanal Frost Giant Lord] Coschechi, Lord of the 23rd layer of the Endless Abyss.
These three were among the most powerful Lords of the Endless Abyss. Except for the slim possibility of Jupiter Lex appearing in the Gaia World, the others were outright impossible.
Because those two were quite frankly not that bright.
But the [Faceless King] Jupiter Lex was at odds with Demogorgon and would never open up a Demon's Gate to Demogorgon's territory.
Without further ado, Stephens's [Gaia's Fury] burst into dazzling light, enveloping both him and Lukar.
When the light dispersed, both figures had vanished from their original location.
The teacher should be fine.
Lis took a quick look and then turned his attention to the nearby Demon's Gate.
The recent bombardment by Lukar, or rather Demogorgon, had severely damaged most of the soldiers. But the only good news was that this attack seemed to ignorantly cover friend and foe alike, so the Abyss Demons facing the human army also suffered heavy casualties.
Well, for Demogorgon, these Abyss Demons were just cannon fodder, and even those of the Golden Rank were the same, not worth his additional consideration.
It was precisely for this reason that Duke Ward and the others could barely organize manpower to resist the attack of the Abyss Demons.
As Duke Ward was fighting on the battlefield, a familiar voice reached his ears.
"Duke Ward, you haven't forgotten our cooperation, have you?"
"It's you, Moriarty!"
Duke Ward shouted, no longer caring about the finer details.
"What do you want to do?"
"Nothing much, my friend. I believe you've already seen our sincerity."
That familiar voice carried a hint of jest.
"The person who just took Lukar away is one of yours!"
Duke Ward didn't mind these things; in fact, he felt hopeful. The more relaxed the Death Secret Cult and Moriarty seemed, the greater his hope seemed.
