This time, the Stone Demons they encountered were all busy breeding descendants.
They simply had no time to help.
Phoenix Emperor and the others could only fly on their own.
But they had barely flown for long when the vault of the sky began to shake without end.
Clearly, the aftershocks of the battle had reached the underground world.

They pieced themselves together, becoming giants, chariots, or weapons.
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
"Set out!"
"Set out!"

"They... are no match for the Alliance at all."
"I wonder whether that gatekeeper has awakened."
Crack!
Crack!
One aged and young Stone Demon after another transformed into round stones.
They rolled and assembled themselves
