Hector's consciousness slowly swept over a three-kilometer radius centered on the temple, scrutinizing every inch of the area, keeping a close eye on anyone he deemed suspicious.

This kind of scanning that directly uses mental power is much more accurate than detecting magic, and any illusion that can deceive magic can hardly escape the detection of this power directly connected to the soul, but correspondingly, this method consumes far more energy than the detection spell that acts on the same area, and for the current Hectert, doing so continuously will undoubtedly make his state worse.

But intuition told Hector that he had to.

As a tiny fragment split from someone else's soul, a strong sense of crisis has always accompanied him since the day he became conscious: the body may find him at some point and turn him back into a part of himself, the stone statue he lives in is his only reliance in this world, and if there is the slightest damage, what awaits him will be to lose his sustenance and disappear forever, and the broken soul that exists with him in the idol, this being who is far more powerful than him at that time is always thinking about devouring him...

In the face of all the dangers that are possible and have already occurred, the only thing he can rely on is a keen intuition. It was under the guidance of his intuition that he managed to avoid danger after danger, until he finally devoured the broken soul that once endangered his existence, and then became a whole individual, and then used stratagem to seize the full power of a mage, and had the ability to protect himself. These experiences convinced him of his instincts, so when he sensed that his men had been killed and that some powerful adversary had discovered his presence, he took immediate action to gather all of his powerful men around the temple and scan the area around the temple.

A powerful soul burst into his scanning area at this moment, and almost at the same moment, Hector recognized from the information he had recovered that it was the pet of the mage who had escaped a hundred years ago, the pinnacle of all the monsters in the Hornfest Mountains. But this did not make him panic, on the contrary, after discovering that the Demon Lizard King had actually broken into his territory, a surprise rose in his heart: since he was the only one who could defeat the other party, he could not move, and with his strength and cunning, for a hundred years, this hateful lizard had firmly blocked the road to the outside of the mountain, and if it were not for it, he would have already received the sacrifice sent by Hano, and he would never have fallen into the current dilemma of declining power. Compared to Rhaeggar, who doesn't know when he will come again, this misshapen lizard is clearly the object that Hector would like to get rid of.

The cautious Hector did not immediately attack the Lizard King, he carefully observed the latter's surroundings, especially the rear, until he was sure that the two-headed monitor lizard king had only come alone, without any help, and then he gave the order to attack his men.

"The big lizard was carried away by its success," Hector thought, "and it thought it could defeat me on its own, but it was clearly wrong. For the current Hector now, this two-headed lizard full of life is exactly what he desperately needs - his energy is in a constant decay due to the failure of the ritual to be completed a hundred years ago, and if it is not replenished within two years, he will lose his life forever and turn into a stone.

In fact, in Hect's original plan, the elves and their companions who Hano discovered and controlled consciousness were the best targets for replenishment: they possessed intelligence and powerful life energy, their souls were filled with aura that non-sapient beings could hardly have, and more importantly, they were strong enough to have a considerable hope of surviving the Lizard King's interception. For a hundred years, these people were the most suitable sacrifices he had encountered, and at the time he received Hano's notice, he had already treated the team as a meal, and in order to allow them to arrive smoothly, Hector sent his most elite men, in order to help the already weak group of explorers escape from the grasp of the great lizard if necessary, and he had great expectations for this.

However, reality shattered his illusions, and the strength of the explorers was completely beyond his and Hano's expectations, and they easily broke away from the Lizard King's grasp and eliminated the men he had sent, which not only frustrated his plans, but also established a difficult enemy - but at this moment, the Lizard King's self-defeating net made it all insignificant, he would get the energy he needed from the other party, and his power would be as strong as ever, and no one could threaten his survival anymore.

An irrepressible excitement surged in Hect's heart, and he was already a little eager to get the Lizard King's life energy, and his subordinates seemed to feel the emotions of their master, and when the Lizard King entered a place about two kilometers away from the temple, the two giant apes attacked first.

The two great apes were of the same race as the two hybrid monsters that Rhaegar had slain, and they were stronger and more agile than their own kind, and even the Lizard King could not ignore the hundreds of kilograms of boulders that they hurled at children like marbles. With a low roar, its massive body nimbly dodged to the side, easily dodging the oncoming boulder.

However, this was only the prelude to the attack, and when the Lizard King's yellow eyes widened and he was about to meet the two giant apes that pounced fiercely, a giant python with at least two adults hugging each other and a length of more than thirty meters suddenly emerged from the ground under its feet, and its long body entangled the body of the Demon Lizard King with lightning speed, and at the same time, a gray poisonous mist erupted from the python's mouth.

This poisonous mist is the most powerful weapon of this creature known as the petrified python, and any flesh and blood object will turn into a lifeless stone statue as soon as it comes into contact with the poisonous mist, but unfortunately, the Demon Lizard King at this time is no longer flesh and blood in the ordinary sense.

The body of the Demon Lizard King, which has been restored by magic, is still essentially a corpse, and all its actions are not the result of the cooperation of various parts of the body, but are driven by magic, and the poisonous mist, which has a lethal effect on the living body, has no effect on it. With an angry roar, one of the heads of the Lizard King bit the neck of the petrified python, and before the attacked python could struggle, the terrible acid had already been injected into its body from the wound it had been bitten by the double monitor lizard, and in a second, it flowed with the blood all over its body.

The Lizard King shook his head slightly, and the corpse of the petrified python that had lost its life under the acid flew towards the two giant apes with its movements, and the heavy python corpse whipped on the body of one of the giant apes like a whip, and forced it to stop for a moment, and it was this pause that killed its companions— The giant ape who pounced on his opponent alone had just raised the thick wooden stick in his hand, and the two huge mouths of the Demon Lizard King had already bitten its two legs, and before the giant ape's wooden stick fell, the Demon Lizard King's head was thrown to both sides, and the behemoth weighing thousands of kilograms was torn in half in the air.

The surviving great apes howled miserably and rushed towards their terrible foes without risking their own lives. Looking coldly at the opponent who fell into madness in front of him, the yellow eyes of the Demon Lizard King radiated a bloodthirsty light, and a scorching fireball slowly formed in one of his mouths, and the next moment, the giant ape who was ready to fight with the other party was turned into ashes by the heat before he even got close.

Almost as soon as the Lizard King had eliminated three of his opponents in one fell swoop, several thick vines crept out of the ground, entangled its limbs and tail, and then more vines sprang out of the ground like grass after a spring rain, tightly wrapping around the Lizard King's body.

These come from vines and are not real plants, in fact, they are a kind of magical beast called the Demon Demon, what these monsters are best at is disguising themselves as vines and hanging on trees, or hiding underground, and then using their tough bodies to strangle the prey who is ignorant of danger when it approaches, a full-grown Demon Demon is strong enough to twist a five-hundred-year-old oak to pieces, and under the entanglement of a large number of Demon Demons, even the Demon Lizard King cannot break free in a short time.

The Lizard King, who had relaxed a little from the victory over his opponent, paid the price for his carelessness, and he writhed desperately, his two heads violently tearing at the hateful reptiles wrapped around him, and his huge body swelled by at least a third in an instant. As it struggled, the bodies of the demons that had to face powerful opponents at the behest of their masters began to creak, and some of the more fragile ones had cracked - at most five seconds, the Lizard King would break free from the shackles of these demons.

For Hecter, however, that time was enough. Before the Lizard King could break free from his restraints, a huge spider fell from the sky and landed on its back, and then, a powerful spiritual power rushed out of the spider's body, breaking through the surface of the Lizard King's body in an instant, and pouring into its soul.

This method of transferring his vast psychic power into the body of a contracted servant and thus controlling his sanity through the body of a contracted servant is a unique ability for Hector to compensate for his inability to move freely. For thousands of years, no one has been able to resist his control. Even Rhaeggar's most loyal servant, Mer, lost himself in the face of the overwhelming spiritual tide, and the only effect of the loyalty imprint planted by the geist was to make it not become the other's servant like the others, but only to become sane and insane.
