Chapter 496: Rolling Demon
” Okay, we are going to hunt that Empty. ” Jayden muttered as a smile appeared on his face.
” What do you mean, we are going to hunt it? There is no way you could defeat it with your strength even your mastery over the space is not that great yet, so it is better if we stay as far away from it as possible ” Hecate spoke.
Jayden completely ignored her words and in his head, he began to devise a plan to kill that beast and let Eve devour its heart.
Sighing in frustration Hecate didn’t bother him any further, she knew he wasn’t stupid to just go to that beast for his death, so all she could do for now was believe in him.
‘ This is strange, I haven’t used my energy in a long time and I am sure the others on this planet haven’t used their mana either so how did they find that I am her? ‘ Hecate pondered deeply.
‘ Maybe they are just probing to try to get to find my exact location, that seems to be the case. ‘
She thought, but now that Empty Beast had seen her, it would be difficult for her to stay on this planet anymore, but if Jayden succeeded in killing that beast then everything would be resolved though Hecate didn’t have much confidence that he could win against that beast.
After thinking for a while Jayden suddenly looked into the direction they had escaped from, he could sense that the beast they had faced just some time ago was now approaching them at incredible speed.
” It’s coming. ”
Jayden said and took Hecate’s hand then he simply teleported multiple times increasing the distance between them, since before fighting that beast he needed to prepare a little.

At this time, Eleanor and the others were moving into the territory of the 2nd Zone demons, whenever they came across a demon they would instantly kill it, their strength was also increasing as they absorbed more of the cores so hunting 2nd Zone demons wasn’t as hard anymore.
But because Jayden had destroyed most of the area and killed most of the demons, they didn’t come across as many demons.
” We have all absorbed nearly half of the required number of 2nd Zone cores, now it won’t be long before we will be able to form the 2nd Energy centre. ” Sasha said, they were all casually walking around trying to find more demons.
” Sigh, I wish darling could come back faster, I’m missing him so much. ” Xiao Rong muttered with a sad and longing expression.
” Yes, are 3rd Zone demons really that strong? Hubby had been away from us for so long. ” Alice said, looking just as sad.
” Emi, you shouldn’t fly, darling isn’t in this area anyway so you won’t be able to see him. ” Sophie called out, while looking at Emma who sat over a small tornado and kept staring into the distance her eyes searching for Jayden.
” It’s fine there are no demons around anyway. ” Jia said, then she began to chat with Eleanor who also seemed absent minded.
” I’m missing master too. ” Ivy muttered, and Lisa nodded her head, looking at one of the Jayden’s photos that all the women had received from Alice.
” I’m sure Jayden would be fine and he will definitely be back soon. ” Layla spoke comforting others, but she was also missing him then she glanced at Lao Rong who walked silently but had a similar expression just like the rest of them.
They all sighed at the same time and continued their search, they chatted among themselves and even took some rests in between every few hours, soon it was evening and they all decided to look for an area to sleep.
Just then Emma who was still floating in the area squinted her eyes and focused on the distance as she spoke:
” What’s that black ball? It is becoming bigger, I think some thing is coming here. ” Just as she said this, the others looked at her confusedly but Sophie and Eleanor still decided to check so they also began to fly and arrived beside Emma, then they also focussed their gazes into the distance and they were finally able to see the approaching figure.
Both Eleanor and Sophie panicked as they were instantly able to recognise the round black sphere, as they shouted: ” A 3rd Zone demon is coming here. ”
They were all shocked after hearing Eleanor’s words, flying into the air they also saw the sphere that was over twenty feet tall and was rolling directly towards them.
” It really is a 3rd Zone demon, let’s escape while we can. ” Layla spoke, now that the demon was getting closer they all could feel its terrifying aura, it was many times more stronger than a 2nd Zone demon, they all nodded towards each other and began to fly in the opposite direction as fast as they could.
Sophie took Emma’s hand and pulled her along, Eleanor used her ability to control gravity which helped in increasing the speed of the entire group.
” Seeing its speed, I think it is impossible for us to escape from it, within a few minutes it would be able to reach us. ” Sasha observed the speed of the rolling demon and spoke, when they looked at it closely they could see that there were many spikes on its body but somehow they weren’t restricting its rotations.
All the women only had two choices now, either stop there and face the demon together there was more than a fifty per cent chance that they might lose and if they really lost then it would be impossible for any of them to survive.
The second choice had more probability of most of them surviving and that is if they all separated now, then the demon would only be able to follow one or two of them, but the ones that the demon would follow would have no chance of survivability.
” What do you all suggest? ” Xiao Rong spoke and looked over all the others they had understood that they only had these two choices, but only after a second, they all made their decision as they stopped moving and turned to face the demon.
” Of course, we are going to face it, either we all die or we all survive this together. ” Jia said and immediately activated her Ice spirit, one by one they all activated their spirits since it was too dangerous Sophie and the others wanted Emma to stay out of this fight.
But even a little bit counts in critical situations so after Emma refused to escape alone they allowed her to fight, even though she was so young but her strength was definitely not lower than any of them, the only thing she lacked was real life experience.
*GHUUUOOOOOO*
A loud roar was produced as the demon rolled closer to them, but its speed was not slowing down at all, the demon was planning to attack them while using its shell and spikes and kill as many of them as possible by just the collision.
