Capítulo 516: Arkogis's Ordeal, The Secret Realm

The entrance that Izroth stepped through disappeared and was replaced by a concrete wall.

'Oh? Is it trying to trap me here?'

The statue of the unknown creature had six arms and five eyes. Four out of five of its eyes stayed shut, and one rested at the center of its forehead—it was this eye that appeared to be observing Izroth.

'This creature does not belong to the Skounae race. And, now that I'm this close to it, while it feels similar to the Netherworld energy I have previously crossed paths with, there's something novel about it. More importantly, my Energy Vision Sense is not detecting any signs of life from it. But... Why does it feel as though it's alive?'

Izroth approached the statue and fully circled around it to study every side. Everywhere he moved, the statue's eye followed him. However, besides its eye, the statue did not budge from its position.
