Chapter 1464 - 570: On the Execution Platform

In an instant, Alka was swallowed by the giant worm’s mouth intended for teleportation, and he emerged the moment he was swallowed.

This worm itself was just a very simple and quick entry to a teleportation gate.

But it was very susceptible to control by the swallowing mouth.

For Alka, who also possesses a space attribute, removing the anomaly was extremely simple.

So he left here in an instant.

In the instant he left, although the distance was moved, the moved distance was very short, only outside the city wall, just a hundred meters away from the wall.

"You risked your life to charge forward, just to teleport me here?"

Alka looked around and said with some confusion.

At this moment, the energy scars left on the chest of the swallowing mouth continued to hinder healing. Lava-like blood streamed out continuously, looking much more tragic than Alka, but he still wore a smile.

"Just a little bit of distance is enough."

As soon as the words fell, the small area of a few meters where the two were standing was sliced apart and then transformed.

Power came from other directions.

In an instant, Alka and the swallowing mouth disappeared from their original place, reappearing in the distance, surrounded by a group of demons.

However, these demons were all weak, at most Fifth Stage, encircling them without intent to attack.

Alka could feel it.

The space around him was almost solidified into an immovable existence, order reached its peak here, and the aura of the abyss maintained the surroundings.

These very strange, relative scenes unfolded around him.

Various protective layers appeared around, here was the best, solid cage made by the demons. Preventing anyone from going out and preventing anyone from entering here.

...

Pororo on the city wall, under the development of potential, unleashed violent lightning and storms. Eventually, tearing the demons in front into pieces.

However, no pieces of bodies remained, as the demons died and transformed into phantoms, disappearing.

Seeing this scene, Simon widened his eyes.

"There’s a problem! All these Demon Lords are phantom constructs condensed from power, not real!"

The moment he realized it and shouted.

Everyone battling the Demon Lords at the same time looked at their opponents.

These Demon Lords simply grinned and then vanished.

Watching this scene.

The wise elder from the Holy Machine Church immediately saw through the intricacies.

"Purely using magic power, phantoms condensed from strength.

This takes a long time to condense. Using some kind of very precise technique...

Clearly, this couldn’t be done by demons alone, but requires cooperation from demons and assistance from our side to create these phantoms."

These phantoms are almost as strong as their originals, but constructing such phantoms takes a long time and can only last for a limited time, achieving at most a delay of the same level.

Afterward, they remain weak for a long period.

Once the issue was discovered, they dissipated.

This should be some unknown weakness, aimed at making them realize these extraordinarily realistic duplicates had no flaws, unless a duplicate was destroyed.

"Those Evil Gods?" murmured the Archbishop.

Evidently, this was the result of collaboration between the Evil Gods and the demons.

"But what is the purpose of creating these phantoms?" Grefar asked puzzled.

To create these phantoms, and if one phantom is destroyed, they will notice the abnormality. Once detected, it triggers the peculiar phantoms to all vanish, there must be some purpose.

"Alka, Alka is missing!"

The flying giant dragon beast flew by, later transforming into Ulu Liwus and Jason.

Alka, who was just fighting with the swallowing mouth, disappeared together with the swallowing mouth.

Under normal circumstances, Alka would instantly appear before everyone through the teleportation gate of the Mirror.

And being able to fight Alka for so long meant that the swallowing mouth was indeed the true body, not a phantom.

"Alka is missing? Could it be..."

Everyone wondered if this attack had been aimed at Alka all along?

This was somewhat peculiar though, why?

Some people were puzzled, but the leaders of the Four Gods Church and people like Jason looked grim.

Those who didn’t understand saw the grim expressions of these high-ranking individuals and realized that Alka might indeed be crucial for the front lines, more important than they had assumed.

Meanwhile.

Inside the space prison confining Alka and the swallowing mouth.

The swallowing mouth was then tattered.

The horns on its head and bat-like wings on its back were torn to shreds, completely rendered useless, surrounded by wreckage and debris.

The swallowing mouth leaned against a stone pillar, nearly out of breath.

Alka stood next to him, looking at him: "So you risk your own life, determined to trap me here?

It’s strange, isn’t it? Demons aren’t creatures willing to sacrifice themselves, and you’re certainly not such an existence."

The swallowing mouth sacrificed itself just to bring Alka here and keep him imprisoned.
