The fishman inside the cave suddenly became quiet, and suddenly the eyes in the darkness slowly disappeared.
"What's going on?"
Jaina felt the changes in the magic power around her. They were flowing rapidly and spreading in all directions.
"Something's wrong, please leave quickly."
The Demon King said immediately, but just as they were about to swim towards the entrance of the cave, suddenly a black mass covered the entrance of the cave. Jaina immediately cast magic, and a bright blue light shone directly at the entrance of the cave, and she was immediately illuminated by the light.
All the areas were covered with ice. She raised her hand and the ice suddenly bulged out and turned into countless ice spikes.
However, to her surprise, the black matter immediately swallowed up her ice cubes and doubled in size.
The Demon King stretched out his hand, and a large amount of energy gathered in the palm of his hand, forming an energy sphere. It suddenly flew out with a bang, and the moment it hit the black material, it immediately spread out at a terrifying speed.
Wow~
The black material dispersed due to the impact, but behind this layer of black material, it was not the hole, but a stone that looked like flesh and blood.
"What happened? The entrance to the cave disappeared?"
Jaina was a little surprised. She clearly remembered that the entrance to the cave was there, so how could it be missing?
Suddenly, a lot of black material fell from their heads, like volcanic dust. When the black material hit Jaina's ice coat, it made a sizzling sound, and a hole was actually corroded.
"Curling!"
Jaina immediately cast her life-saving magic, and a frozen rhombus immediately enveloped the two of them.
"What should I do? Have you ever seen this happen? Is it a hallucination?"
"No, this is reality. If I guessed correctly, the owner of the space has integrated with this space and turned into a special life form." The Demon King said.
"What do you mean? Is such a thing possible?"
Jaina supported the shield, and when the black substance corroded the ice, she used magic to fill the hole.
"Theoretically it's possible, but this is the first time I've encountered this situation."
"If that's true, then aren't we doomed?"
Jaina really couldn't imagine what it would be like to be in a living space.
The Demon King thought for a moment and suddenly thought of something.
"No, not necessarily. There are many creatures that can live here. Even the fish man named Andrew has lived here for more than ten years, so this space is not as scary as you think."
"Creatures? You mean, those sea people? Aren't they part of this space?"
"To be precise, they are symbionts. To the space owner, they are just a group of parasites competing with themselves for nutrients. They must have a way not to be swallowed by the space owner."
The Demon King looked up at the black matter tightly wrapped around them. When the black matter appeared, the symbionts disappeared immediately. They must not have been eaten, but left through some method or passage.
Jaina was stunned for a moment. What they saw after entering this space was the same, but the other party was able to draw so many conclusions through observation, but she was still confused.
What a terrible guy. Who is he?
Just as Jaina was thinking, the Demon King suddenly made a fist with his right hand and gently tapped it on the palm of his left hand.
"I probably know."
"Huh? So fast?"
Jaina was a little surprised.
The Demon King turned his head, looked at Jaina and said, "Have you noticed something?"
"What's up?"
"Why didn't these black substances appear immediately after we arrived at this place, but did they wait for a while?"
"Is there any problem with this? Let me start by saying that my magic won't last long."
Jaina was a little anxious. The ice was getting thinner and thinner, and her magic power was getting less and less.
"Well, it does matter. If you are the owner of the space and know that there are many parasites in your body, then if you don't want your food to be taken away, you should strike first. So there is only one conclusion, and that is these black substances
It was only after we used magic that we were lured out."
Although I admire the other party for keeping a cool head at this critical moment, the most important thing now is how to escape!
Jaina was so anxious that she almost stamped her feet. She said impatiently: "Even if this is true, how does it help us? By the way, we will be swallowed up by them in three minutes."
"I know you are in a hurry, but I have to finish. If I don't finish, then..."
"What will happen? Tell me quickly!"
Jaina shouted anxiously.
"Then you won't believe me."
The Demon King said as if he was joking. Jaina let out a long sigh and seemed to have the idea of giving up.
"Then I believe you, can you keep the story short?"
"Okay. Anyway, the way I thought of is not to use magic and fall into the zero state."
The zero state is the meditative state of a magician, which allows the magic power in the whole body to stop. In other words, it means putting oneself into a defenseless state.
Hearing this, Jaina frowned, looking suspicious. It's no wonder that in the zero state, she might be controlled by the other party. This is a very scary thing. There have been countless cases of magic with evil intentions in the past.
The magician uses manipulative magic on ordinary people to do horrifying things. Even if ordinary people don't know magic, the magic flowing in their bodies will create a natural barrier. And in the magician's zero state, even this barrier will disappear.
, that is, it will be easier to control than ordinary people.
"Why did you come to this conclusion?"
Jaina asked.
"It's because of those white bones and intuition. Space life forms also need to eat. Symbiotes cannot defeat such huge creatures, so those giant creatures must have been eaten by space life forms. This black color is produced
Matter also requires energy. It will definitely not spend a lot of magic power to produce so much black matter for one or two fish, so it must use the amount of magic power to judge whether the fish is worth eating."
Hearing this, Jaina frowned. She couldn't find a loophole, and now her life was hanging by a thread, so she had no choice but to risk it.
"Okay, I believe you, but can you answer my last question honestly?"
"It depends."
The devil's answer made Jaina a little unhappy, but she still asked: "Why did you come back to save me."
Hearing this, the Demon King was stunned for a moment. He had already answered this question.
"My answer will not change. That's because my apprentice will be sad because of your death. Of course, that's just one of them. The most important thing is that you saved her, and I owe you once. That's all.
That’s all.”
The devil replied.
Jaina was silent for a few seconds, and finally sighed.
"Okay, then what should we do now."
"Just do nothing."
After saying that, the Demon King silently closed his eyes, and suddenly the light in his hand disappeared.
Jaina glanced at the staff in her hand, and finally reluctantly gave it away, watching it fall into the black substance.
The only light source disappeared, and the two of them were instantly engulfed in darkness.
