I started by enhancing cancer cells and uniquely obtained the Godhood Sequence.

The legion commanders of the lesser demon race immediately panicked.

What does "disappeared" mean?

someone shouted.

Heferon's face turned deathly pale, and he said:

"The leader's life imprint has disappeared!"

As the legion commander of the lesser demon race, he possesses the life mark of their leader, Ig.

This is both an insurance policy and a collaborative mechanism.

If Ig is in danger, the lesser demons can react quickly.

"But...King Igor has only been inside for less than ten minutes!"

The Iron Throat spoke in disbelief.

The other legion commanders couldn't believe it either. As the Lord of Lesser Demons, Igor was a powerful figure in the fire element, and his adaptability in this fiery rock region was absolutely top-notch.

Even if he was surrounded by many people, he shouldn't have been killed in less than a quarter of an hour, right?

What on earth happened?!

"No! We must get to the crater immediately!" roared the Iron Throat.

Hephiron stopped trying to stop them and said in a deep voice, "All legion commanders, listen to my command! All demon legion commanders and players of vice-commander rank and above, follow me into the mountains!"

But the moment the military order was given, the crater suddenly erupted with scalding lava again.

This time, it was no longer a random fluctuation, but a long-term, continuous volcanic eruption.

Countless flames erupted from inside the volcano, each burst of flame resembling a terrifying ninth-tier spell.

"Walk!"

Heferon gritted his teeth, disregarding his own safety at that moment.

For the entire Lava Demon race, the safety of their leader is paramount. Even if all of them, the legion commanders, were to perish, they would be less important than a single finger of Igor.

This is not determined by bloodline or status, but by strength.

The importance of a domain-level expert to a race is extraordinary, far exceeding that of these ninth-tier players.

Even a fully-fledged ninth-tier legion is no match for Igor alone.

They braced themselves with ninth-tier defensive spells, shields, and all the equipment that could absorb damage, and charged towards the crater without regard for anything else.

However, the closer you get to the crater, the more violent the eruption of flames becomes.

The intense fire damage made it difficult for them to move.

Not only them, but also the ninth-tier players of other races near the crater.

Their reaction was also unusual; after their leader entered the crater first, they rushed in frantically!

"Could it be that their leader is also in trouble?"

Heferon made this guess in his mind, and at the same time, a great panic welled up in his heart.

But the more this was the case, the less he and the other demon legion commanders dared not relax or slack off, and even tried harder to rush towards the crater.

What Leader Ig had covered in less than a few breaths took them nearly half a day, even at the cost of losing three vice-captains and two epic-level weapons, before they finally approached the crater.

"It's almost there, everyone hang in there!!!"

Heferon roared at the crowd behind him.

The legion commanders behind him withstood the pressure and charged towards the mountain pass together. Just as they were about to cross the sea of ​​lava and enter the pass, suddenly, Heferon raised his hand:

"etc!"

Ironthroat and Sargon were taken aback: "What's wrong? Is there news about Chief Ig?"

Heferon turned slowly towards the crowd as if he had heard a terrifying story, and said:

"I... I think I just received a telepathic message from Chief Igor..."

"Really? What did Chief Ig say?!"

Everyone was overjoyed. Since Chief Ig was able to send a message back, it proved that he was still alive.

Regardless, there is hope for a rescue. As long as we bring Chief Ig back, even if this map conquest fails, the Lava Imp will at least have a chance to make a comeback.

It's just losing one chance to dominate among all races; as long as the green hills remain, there will always be firewood to burn.

Hephiron used the recording stone to directly project Chief Ig's voice. After a burst of radio waves, Ig's voice came through intermittently:

"Don't come closer, don't come closer, don't come closer..."

"Leave, leave, leave..."

The radio waves gradually faded away as Igor spoke, but Hephiron, Sargon, and the others suddenly felt a chill run down their spines, as if an electric current had surged through their bodies.

What exactly happened?!

Before they could react, heart-wrenching roars echoed from inside the crater:

"Roar roar roar!!!"

The terrifying howls were not unfamiliar to them.

"That's... the howl of the Lava Giant Lizard!"

They had also participated in the hunt for monitor lizards, and although it wasn't a direct confrontation, they had still heard the lizards' cries.

Is this giant lava lizard being hunted?

But who is it?

If Igor is in danger, so is the giant lizard, then who is really in the middle?

The leader of the fire dragon hybrids, the leader of the mountain stone beasts?

However, even if the two of them joined forces, Chief Ig could escape even if he was no match for them.

Even if we take a step back and assume that the domain-level giant lizard joins forces with these two domain leaders, Chief Ig still has a high probability of escaping from the encirclement.

After all, Chief Ig has a contract with a fire spirit servant, giving him a huge advantage on this kind of map.

Facing the combined forces of these three, winning is difficult, but dying is not easy either.

For a time, Heferon was stuck in a stalemate near the crater, unable to retreat or advance.

……

At this moment, inside the volcano, lava is churning and flames are shooting skyward.

Its temperature is so high that it definitely exceeds the fire resistance level of a ninth-level player. Even if a domain-level expert wanted to break into this place, it would be impossible for them to be completely unaffected.

It was precisely because of this superior home advantage that the Lava Giant Lizard was able to hold its own against three domain-level powerhouses and even manage to keep the game deadlocked on its home turf.

But at this moment, this volcano overlord collapsed completely in the scalding lava, rolling and struggling, howling in agony.

But that wasn't the most terrifying part. Those powerful alien warriors who had managed to sneak into the crater from the outside witnessed a horrifying scene the moment they entered—

Dozens of thick, blood-red pythons tightly bound the three domain-level powerhouses—the Lava Demon, the Fire Dragon Hybrid, and the Mountain Stone Beast—making them completely immobile. Their mouths were even filled with countless small snakes, preventing them from uttering a sound.

The three domain-level powerhouses were like fish on a chopping board, being dragged and continuously immersed in a sea of ​​scalding lava, their life points rapidly draining away...

The moment those ninth-tier experts saw this scene, the taut nerve in their minds snapped instantly, and many even wanted to run away in terror.

But the next second, countless blood pythons emerged from the void, tightly binding them and dragging them into the lava below.

For a time, screams and wails echoed from inside the volcano.
