In the Eye of Fire, the three were releasing eye-blinding light and they looked like three small suns.
The stronger the creatures were, the more intense the light around them would be, that was the fundamental of the Eye of Fire. However, Angele had never seen such strong light, even when he tested the spell on Vivian.
The three stopped chatting. They just stood there and waited patiently.
Angele decided to proceed with caution so he just waited there as well.
The other three here could easily kill him; his only advantage was the two bloodline signets on his chest. For some reason, the energy waves released by the signets covered the mentality wave he was releasing.
It was a passive ability that would take effect when he partially activated the signets. The energy waves released by the signets were old but elegant.
The other three had trouble understanding the strange energy wave so they did not say anything else.
Angele had not expected to meet such terrifying creatures. He’d thought that the lords attending the party were at the similar level as Eye Devil and he could somehow handle the situation using the bloodline signet. However, the situation was much more complicated than he’d thought.
Angele knew the environment and the creatures of the Nightmare Realm were dangerous and what he witnessed confirmed the theory again.
The four stood in front of the black building for two hours and they looked like four sculptures.
A large white eyeball appeared in front of the black building. The eyeball was surrounded by tentacles and covered in blood veins.
"Masters, please follow me. My lord has finished the preparations," the eyeball spoke in a high-pitched tone. It turned around and walked to the entrance of the building after finishing the sentence. The tentacles around its body were waving in the air.
The Bone started moving the first—the Spider, the black armor, and Angele followed after them.
They entered the dark hall together.
There was a complicated red magic circle on the surface of the floor. There was a triangular platform floating in the center of the magic circle and there was a silver crossguard sword standing on top of the platform.
The triangular platform was moving up and down.
The four followed the eyeball into the magic circle.
*CHI CHI*
Red light flashed in front of Angele’s eyes and the environment around changed.
It was a spacious red hall and the red light was fading away from the magic circle on the floor.
There were several tiny windows beside the glowing crystals.
Angele could see a black cliff through the window. A burning waterfall of lava was dropping from the cliff, it looked like a long red blanket. The noise made by the flowing lava was loud and the heated air was over 1000 degrees Celsius in temperature.
‘It’s underground…’ Angele looked at the sky but the only thing he saw was black rocks.
*CLAP CLAP*
"Welcome to the Eye Devil’s Cave. Clap, everyone!" A bloody eye suddenly appeared on the right side of the bumpy wall.
The eye looked like a feline’s eye and it was moving around. It seemed like the eyeball was trying to get used to the "eye socket".
Angele recognized the voice immediately—it was from the woman he met in the forest.
"Get to the point. Don’t waste our time!" The black armor leaned against the wall with his arms crossed. It seemed like he was getting impatient.
The eyeball on the wall moved again and its sight fell upon the black armor. "Vapor, be patient, I invited many guests here."
"Huh? Are they all related to the thousand-eyed bloodline?" Spider seemed interested.
Eye Devil chuckled. "Well, I’m not the only one with the thousand-eyed bloodline this time."
"Alright, let’s get out and we’ll know how many people are here." Bone shook his body and his bone armor made some loud noise. He walked to the left side of the hall and the wall separated as he reached the end of the hall.
Behind the wall, there was lava—Bone stepped into it with no hesitation.
"Wait, I’m not finished yet… The location was changed to the Blood Hall this time," Eye Devil opened her mouth again after Bone left the hall.
Spider shook her head and laughed. "Well, why can’t you be nicer to Bone?"
Angele did not say anything but he felt a bit relieved.
If the party were to be held in the lava, he was not confident that he could handle the thousand-degree golden lava for too long; also, he would have a hard time trying to observe the area inside the lava.
It was good that they changed the location.
"Ah, one more thing." Eye Devil’s sight fell upon Angele. "This is a hermit I met in the southwest area. His sealed body had the similar power level to me. I think he’s one of the sleepers that woke up due to the broken seal. Friend, tell us your nickname—just trying to make things easier here."
The other two stared at Angele as they waited for the response.
Angele noticed a hint of fear in their eyes and he was speechless. He felt like he was standing on a cliff and there were people waiting to push him down. Angele was playing with fire but he was not sure if he would be damaged by the fire.
Angele calmed down and smiled.
"You can call me Phoenix, I think I already told you that last time."
"Oh… Yeah, I have a bad memory. Sorry, you did tell me last time. Alright, Phoenix, I hope this will be an eye-opening experience for you. You can leave through the exit now as the coordinates had already been changed." The eye disappeared from the wall as she finished her words.
The red lava by the exit turned into a dark red light screen after she finished her words.
"Let’s go." Vapor held the long sword in hand tight and entered the light screen.
Spider followed after him.
Angele turned his head around and looked at the wall that Eye Devil vanished into.
"Eye Devil, I hope I’ll find something I need this time," he muttered and entered the light screen before Eye Devil responded.
"I won’t disappoint you…" Eye Devil’s voice came from the behind.
Angele stepped forward.
His sight blurred for a second during the teleportation.
He entered a larger red hall and there were several people waiting inside.
Those people were naked and countless red eyes covered the surface of their red skin. Their hands, bodies, necks, and faces were all covered in human eyes.
There were two long rectangular tables on both sides of the hall and raw meat was lying on the silver plates quietly; some of the meat looked like human arms and legs.
*CHI*
A tall man that was covered with eyes was sitting on the table beside Angele. He was cutting a living woman in half; he bit on the woman’s leg, tearing off a large piece of flesh.
The blood dripped down the legs of the table and entered the sinkholes in the ground.
The smell of blood and barbequed meat permeated the air.
Angele stood in front of the light screen and glanced around. He followed after Vapor and Spider—they were heading to the center of the hall together.
He noticed that the red men would bow to them as they walked by. Angele could see the respect and fear in their eyes.
They also bowed to Angele as he was following the lords.
"Well, I like it." Vapor chuckled, he was walking in the front.
The three walked down the hall and reached two rows of black seats on the other side of the hall.
Angele looked around and sat down on a chair with tall back.
There were a total of eight seats, four on each side, and they were reserved for the main guests of the party.
Angele sat on the side, Spider and Vapor sat next to each other.
The blood hall stank; the strange smell came from the dead bodies of the animals on the table. There were also bodies of human beings and they were cut into pieces. None of the meat was fully cooked.
Green blood, blue blood, and red blood were mixed all together, then turned into a strange dark-red color. The tables were a mess.
Angele calmed down quickly. The scene was disturbing, but he was a dark wizard and he had seen people doing experiments using living human beings.
Although the scene made him uncomfortable, he decided not to say anything. He wanted the others to consider him a strong individual that did not like to speak too much. The fewer things he did, the safer he would be.
*WOO*
The floor started vibrating as Angele was thinking about his situation.
A long rectangular table appeared in front of the seats.
Three girls with countless eyes on their red skin brought them three large silver plates from the side and they carefully laid down the plates in front of the important guests.
Inside the plate, there was a naked human girl with clean blonde hair. Her hands and feet were attached to the edge of the plate and it seemed like they cut off her tongue. The girl was struggling and there were tears running down her cheeks.
The red girls also served them several cups of bubbling green drinks.
"Please help yourself. This is the appetizer. A young and beautiful human girl. We checked her blood and health condition before washing her. I assure you that she was not infected and she just woke up from the blood cell about two hours ago," the red girl explained in a gentle voice.
Angele looked at the girl on the plate and his face was twitching.
It seemed like they wanted him to eat the girl alive…
