Whoosh!
Hermione Yggdrasil swung her sword. It shot directly at Alex.
The speed it traveled at was not any slower than when it was on land.
âF*ck, she just wonât give up!â Alex spat, then teleported to dodge the blow.
A few seconds later, he realized that the Reflective Eye couldnât produce her mirror images if it were to
protect her. But, as Hermione was alone, Alex was not afraid of her.
âI need to grab that magic treasure!â
Once Alex made up his mind, he stopped in his tracks immediately. Then, he secretly set up barriers
and formations under the swamp. Hermione was also a little surprised because Alex had been sinking
downward with his daughter before this, but now he had actually stopped and drawn a circle here. She
watched as he pinched his fingers together, pointing east or west occasionally. She didnât know what
the hell he was doing.
But what surprised her the most was the green light that was emitting from Bubblesâ body. It seemed to
give her a feeling of panic in her heart, so it was definitely a rare thing.
âHey, brat. Youâre almost at your end. If you go further down, there wonât be anywhere else to go!â
Hermione said through telepathy.
âAre you really willing to bring your daughter to death with you? Iâve never seen a father like you, ever.â
Alex paused.
A strange smile bloomed across his face. âI donât intend to run anymore. The one who should be
considering whether you should run or not should be you! How about this, letâs make a deal. Hand over
the mirror in your body, and Iâll let you go.â
Hermione roared with laughter. âWhere did this confidence come from that you dare to threaten me?â
Alex smiled and snapped his fingers.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, the surrounding scenery changed. Hermioneâs face was twisted. âA barrier!â
Alex took a step back âThatâs right. But, Iâve also added some other things, which can be considered
your reward for getting the right answer.â
After he was finished speaking, he roared, âDivine Power, Infernal Prison, rise!â
Countless ancient runes that gleamed with golden light burst out in the next second, lighting up the sky
like stars and filling the air with a solemn and ancient aura. Hermione had a feeling that something was
not right and immediately rose to flee.
However, it was too late.
The golden runes linked together, resembling golden chains, and rushed toward Hermione. It quickly
wrapped around her feet and locked itself. Then, three more similar chains flew toward her, binding her
both hands and remaining leg.
At this point, Hermione had been trapped tightly by the chains that had been formed from the ancient
runes. But, unfortunately, there was also a prison made of runes surrounding her, and words emerged
on her body, freezing her on the spot. No matter how much she struggled, she couldnât break free.
Hermione screamed and yelled, but she had never dabbled in formations, and it was one of her
shortcomings. Alex had also pushed in a large amount of divine power to recreate a simpler version of
Infernal Hell, Infernal Prison, and it was even more challenging to crack.
âAhhhhhh!â
âLet me go! Fight me one on one if you have the ability!â Hermione shrieked.
Alex laughed and stepped closer to her. âGo on and scream. In this kind of place, even if you scream till
you lose your voice, itâs useless.â
Even though he was standing less than half a meter in front of her, she couldnât attack him at all.
Instead, the ancient rune chains that locked her in place gave off a feeling like it was trying to pull her
body apart.
The silver gloss that covered her body was extremely dense. It made her look like a futuristic robot.
Alex reached out with his hand to touch Hermioneâs face. When it made contact, it felt like touching the
skin of a real person. It was smooth, and there was a sense of elasticity.
Hermione felt goosebumps all over her. âAh, what the hell are you doing? Let go, let me go!â
Alexâs sadistic humor increased, and he gently slid his finger down her face. It slid over her chin, neck,
collarbone and finally came to her chest He said, âDidnât you say you wanted to be my cultivation
partner? I can give you a demonstration of that. How about that?â
