Rod exclaimed with delight, "Will this work?"

"It will. I am also a part of the master, and the [Giant God Power] acknowledges me."

"Great!"

Rod immediately summoned the puppet and let it take the core position of the War God.

The boiling red spiritual energy quickly accepted the puppet's control, and the broken War God once again engaged in battle with the Great Demon God.

Rod took the opportunity to run outside.

Thunderous roars continuously resounded behind him, but he just kept his head down and sprinted until he reached the exit and finally looked back.

The Red War God had already fallen, and the Great Demon God leaped into the air, with a 15-level spiritual energy giant fist smashing down from above.

Rod immediately dispersed the Red War God, halting the [Giant God Power], and the puppet also returned to the Dream Realm.

Boom!

The Great Demon God's heavy fist struck the ground.

The entire Divine Tower shook slightly, and Rod felt as if the ground almost jumped up.

Liszt and the other three looked pale, watching the Great Demon God slowly rise in the distance, their hearts in their throats.

Fortunately, the Great Demon God did not continue forward; instead, it slowly retreated back behind the giant gate.

Good!

Rod let out a long breath, finally safe.

At this moment, Liszt looked at Rod with an almost reverent gaze.

"Sir No. 0, I don't know how to express..."

He paused for a moment and then said seriously.

"From now on, I am your absolute supporter, whether you become our King or assist the King as a Flaming Shadow."

Rod felt a bit awkward, unsure how to respond.

Liszt did not wait for his answer and solemnly said, "No. 19, strictly speaking, this was a huge mistake. You forgot the Investigation Legion's regulations, but I understand your excitement at the time. The punishment will be administered after returning to the Royal City."

No. 19 looked gray-faced: "It was my mistake."

No. 7 said uneasily, "I just checked, the nineteenth floor is also shrouded in black fog, only the corridors are temporarily safe."

Rod frowned, "If that's the case, aren't we trapped here?"

No. 9 touched the wall, "The Divine Tower is very solid, not something we can break through."

Everyone's faces turned very gray, except Liszt, who pressed his hands on the ground and closed his eyes without speaking.

After a moment, he suddenly said, "The pyramid is slowly moving, and the black fog seems to rotate with its movement... and during the process, the pyramid seems to be slowly returning to its original state."

Rod immediately realized, "You mean, when it returns to its original state, the black fog will return to normal."

"Very likely!"

Liszt pondered, "In that case, the pyramid must be the structure that generates the Black Fog Wall. The 'Eternal Barrier' mentioned on Royeger's tablet could refer to the pyramid, and those strange terms might be materials used to make the pyramid!"

"That's right!"

High-ranking investigators became excited.

"The monsters outside must have been created to guard the pyramid."

"As long as we find a way to shut down the pyramid, we can get past here."

But Liszt promptly poured cold water on their enthusiasm: "What about the Great Demon God? If you touch the pyramid, the Great Demon God will tear you to pieces."

Everyone fell silent, except No. 19 said, "Perhaps Rod might be able to defeat the Great Demon God."

Liszt shook his head, "It's impossible. Under these circumstances, wanting to kill the Great Demon God in a one-on-one battle, besides the King, Alan, and Olivia, no one in Trolian can do it."

No. 19 insisted, "Maybe there's another way, we can wait for the black fog to dissipate and then make a decision."

Although Liszt was not hopeful, he agreed to this suggestion.

They also needed to rest for a while.

Rod drank a few gulps of Spiritual Power Recovery Potion and sat down. Facing the Great Demon God head-on had been a huge shock to him.

For the first time as a Special Level Combatant, he had become the core of a team and keenly felt the challenges Special Level Combatants faced.

At his current state, he wasn't enough to handle such dangers and could not yet be called a great tree of Trolian.

"When will I be able to take that final step..."

As Rod pondered, suddenly, the Book of Knowledge's scream echoed in his mind.

"Master, an invasion is coming! An invasion is coming!"

Why now of all times...

Rod didn't have time to complain; with a thought, he stepped into the Dream Realm.

At this moment, the Dream Realm was already shrouded in the red glow from the obelisk.

On the prophecy surface, four blood-red characters were rapidly flashing.

"Invasion Approaching! Invasion Approaching!"

Rod's heart sank. His current state wasn't very good, having just experienced a fierce battle, his spiritual energy was heavily depleted, and the pollution in his soul hadn't been entirely cleared. The erosion from the black fog was the hardest to eliminate, and his humanity was rapidly declining.

Not far away, the Book of Knowledge came running, jumped onto Rod's shoulder, its pages flickering wildly, its tone joyful.

"Master, the state of the Dream Realm is very good. I will make the Chaos Demon feel what pressure means!"

"I threw many Souls Without Spirits and humanity into the Evil Ghost Stone Tank. Using the soul of the Wedge Demon, which matches perfectly with the Evil Ghost King, I successfully resurrected the Evil Ghost King quickly!"

With a rumbling sound, the Evil Ghost King arrived beside Rod, kneeling on one knee.

Compared to last time, its spiritual energy strength had increased once more, reaching level 13, almost equal to Rod.

"How did it become so strong?"

The Book of Knowledge proudly explained, "The Evil Ghost King's strength also has a lot to do with the Dream Realm. The Dream Realm's power boosted its strength, don't be fooled by its 13-level spiritual energy; its physical strength is higher than a 15-level spiritual energy monster."

Rod looked at its bulging muscles, thinking it's a pity the Evil Ghost King is a purely Dream Realm being, unable to leave the Dream Realm.

Otherwise, summoning it to the Material World might allow it to take on the Great Demon God.

If he had a tank, defeating the Great Demon God wouldn't be out of the question.

After all, he still had divinity and the [Spiritual Power Multiple Melodies] that could destroy everything.

What a pity.

But Rod did not lose heart.

The Book of Knowledge gave him a big surprise, and his mood improved considerably, no longer worrying about the Chaos Demon's invasion.

The puppet Aphro also arrived at his side; the battle with the Great Demon God had not affected its state, and the golden blade extended from its wrist, exuding spiritual energy with a majestic aura.

Asa also opened his eyes, chuckling, "Master, your most loyal servant will fight for you."

The Book of Knowledge spat, turned, and ran into the House of God, taking over the Divine Mirror, controlling the power of Dream Protection.

The Book of the Future was also forced from slumber and stood on Rod's shoulder.

"The invasion, the invasion will come from that position!"

After speaking, the Book of the Future collapsed to the ground, falling asleep again.

And in the opposite direction of where it pointed, pure blackness tainted the mist of the Dream Realm.

Boom!

A giant black foot stamped down on the grayish-white land.

The Abyss Demon King finally stepped into the Dream Realm.
