Chapter 407: Putting Up a Mask

The demonic teleportation portal was surrounded by a vast expanse of open territory. They did not dare to get near, could only hide behind black giant rock hundreds of meters away from the portal, looking for the chance to get past.

"That's the teleportation portal," Y'zaks took this opportunity to share the knowledge of this world with them, "in this world, at least within the already ascertained world, space vesicles are the only form of space, and each space vesicle will have more than one natural channel connected to other spaces, just like this one. This kind of portal is the most important military hub in every space and will be heavily guarded by the rulers of each space. Of course, these are limited to natural portals, the randomness of artificial teleportation portal is too strong, and usually unstable, can only last for a short period of time."

"10 Demonic Planes have a direct teleportation portal connecting each other," Lanina added, "This one leads us to the seventh plane, which is our former territory."

"So this kind of stable teleportation portal is naturally formed?" Nangong Wuyue asked and looked at the magnificent obsidian building in the distance, "since the teleportation portal is naturally formed, then what's the use of the pedestal below it and the pillars on both sides of the door?"

Y'zaks casually replied, "They're useless, just for decorative purpose."

Hao Ren was wondering how the teleportation portal worked, and now he was almost choked... That pile of dark, intricate patterns of obsidian slabs looked like magical artifacts, people who had no idea of it would really think they prop up that huge dimensional rift, did not expect that the teleportation portal was a natural thing, and the demons created them just to make them look powerful and dynamic…

"OK, now the important question is how we get through it." Fortunately, there was still a steady and reliable vampire reminded them to focus on the big problem. "There are hundreds of sentries at the gate, and I'm afraid there'll be more guards are in the guardhouse and under the pedestals. We're no match for them. It's absolutely impossible to enter the portal by force."

Lanina frowned and said, "If we encounter lower-order demons, you guys can disguise as my human servant as we've already discussed and agreed, but I'm afraid it doesn't work here. The stable teleportation portal is the important thoroughfare of each plane. The interrogation is very strict, you'll need the badge of Serathon Legion to pass."

Hao Ren looked around the scorching plains, trying to find a lone Serathon Legion demon to rob a badge back. Lanina looked at him, shook her head and said, "The demon guards of teleportation portal are impossible to act alone, and they have a secret means to communicate with each other. It's difficult to kill one undetected."

"Is Shadow Stealth possible?" Vivian had an idea. "The Shadow Power in this dimension seems strong, and I can cover you all in the shadow…"

"Demons are very sensitive to the Shadow Magic, and there are sensors near the portal, we don't know the form of the sensors, so we can't make ourselves invisible according to the specific form," Lanina said and continued to shake her head, "We can only wait for them to change shift, and seize the opportunity to kill those guards…"

Before Lanina finished her words, they suddenly heard a loud noise sounded like a giant beast thundering from afar!

Hao Ren turned to the direction and saw a giant beast running out of the flying dust. It was a giant monster that looked slightly like a wolf but was four or five meters tall. The giant beast had a pair of blood-red eyes, hideous face, and its fangs were stained with blood red color. Its body was covered with dark red furs that were as sharp as needles. The dark red flame was burning in the crevices of the furs and looked daunting.

The beast rushed all the way from the scorching plains and dashed straight to the portal. At first, the guards got a little nervous when heard the loud sound, but they calmed down when saw it was just a wild beast. They swayed lazily and watched the giant wolf dashed into the portal. This seemed to be a very common thing.

"What's that?" Hao Ren asked curiously.

Lanina looked at the direction of the teleportation portal and said, "Oh, it's a kind of Cerberus, a wild breed, often seen in the Demonic Plane."

Nangong Wuyue surprised and asked immediately, "Cerberus? Does a Cerberus look like this? I remember that Cerberus is the kind of creature that has two heads, a body full of magma, a short stumpy head, a mouthful of rotten teeth, and kept sneezing while running…"

Lanina nodded and said, "The one you refer to is also a Cerberus, but that's domestic breed, is specially bred as a pet. The one just now is the wild breed, the original form of Cerberus. The domesticated Cerberus will become like that after three or four generations of cross-breeding with the wild one."

Hao Ren felt that demon's aesthetic sense was really peculiar. They purposely transformed a normal creature into an ugly and odd two-head creature, and actually kept it as a pet...

"The demon guards won't stop the animals from crossing the border?" Nangong Wuyue asked curiously.

"Of course they won't," Lanina replied, "These natural teleportation portals have tens of thousands of or even hundreds of thousands of years of history, older than any demon monarch. It was a migratory passage for wildlife before it was occupied by some demon monarch. Many animals have to travel through the portal to migrate back and forth in several spaces to complete the process of reproduction. Not only in the Demonic Plane, similar cases also happen in other spaces of human races. The similar ancient teleportation portals have become part of the ecological cycle, and guards won't stop animals from using them."

Vivian pondered for a moment, suddenly looked at Lily and said, "I have an idea…"

Lily immediately felt a shiver ran down her spine, and quickly moved behind Hao Ren and said, "What are you going to do? I warn you, I am more beautiful than that beast, you don't..."

Hao Ren turned and looked at Lily and thought it's time for this useless husky to sacrifice a little…

30 minutes later, they had retreated back to the Demonic Foundry. Lily squatted on the ground nervously and asked, "Are you sure this works?"

Not far behind them lied an already dead huge Cerberus, which was just caught by Lanina. This kind of creatures was all around, and there was a lot in the Demonic Plane. Y'zaks was busy peeling off the skin from the Cerberus. Nangong Wuyue tried to squeeze water out of the air to clean up the poisonous blood stains and the strange smell on the fur. The whole scene was very bloody. Lily turned to glance at it, a little shivered and said, "... You want to deceive them with this stuff on me? Demons are not fools."

Vivian patted Lily on the shoulder and said, "So I'm going to use my magic to help you make up--rest assured that there's one type of blood magic that's specializing in mimicry which can also mimic other biological tissues. I'll handle it…"

Lanina also said, "You look ok. The mutation rate of this kind of creature is particularly high. Sometimes demons also like to make some weird biological transformation on the wild Cerberus. As long as you are not walking upright, the guards will not become suspicious of you."

Hao Ren glanced at Lily and said, "Stop complaining, Y'zaks and I are going to have to let you bite in the mouth, okay?"

After Lily transformed, she was five meters tall. She looked really huge, but there were only so little places to hide them. Even if Lily was wearing an oversized fur, it could only accommodate a few petite girls, so they had planned carefully. And this creative plan really surprised Lanina.

Lily had no choice. She let out a long heavy sigh and cradled her favorite spicy sticks…

A moment later, a silver giant 'wolf' appeared in front of everyone. Nangong Wuyue and Lanina immediately put the newly treated Cerberus fur on Lily while Vivian used the blood magic to create flesh and blood as a disguised to cover imperfect places, then the girls hid under the fur, leaving Y'zaks and Hao Ren standing outside.

Lily lowered her head and licked Hao Ren, then put them in her mouth, ran out of the Demonic Foundry and ran toward the teleportation portal.

The rumbling of the giant beast immediately caught the attention of the demon guards, but what the demon guards saw was just a mutant Cerberus running over there with two humans in its mouth, the smell of beast and humans--all normal, so the guards put their guard down.

Hao Ren still remembered that he had a line. In order to make it look real, when Lily ran to the transmission door, he yelled, "Help!"

The 'mutant Cerberus' rushed into the teleportation portal and left no traces behind.

Several of the demon guards looked at each other, and one of them shrugged and said, "Wild dogs have a pretty big appetite."

"There are so many humans in the Demonic Plane these days."

"Yes, but most of them are eaten by dogs…"
