The Prison of the Gods

The appearance of the man in black robes did not have a significant impact on Xiao Yu; he simply felt that he was hallucinating. Because of this, he was even more eager to participate in the competition.

The next morning, Xiao Yu arrived at the competition venue on time.

As the winner of yesterday's opening match, he will face another victorious opponent today for a place in the Group A final.

Unlike the first day, he was much more confident today. Yesterday's victory showed him the weakness of his opponent, and his understanding of how to use power showed him his own strength. At this moment, even if Naiser came, he was confident that he could fight him. As for the other contestants, they were nothing but trash in his eyes.

I checked the time: 8 hours and 55 minutes, five minutes before the match started.

Xiao Yu turned around, glanced at his men who were on high alert, and then his gaze fell on Leah Bloodmoon.

Azathoth (Elemental King): "Once the match starts today, you guys just hold your ground and let me crush everything in my path." Xiao Yu said confidently to Leah Bloodmoon.

Leah Bloodmoon looked on with curiosity, "So confident? By the way, what exactly happened yesterday?"

"Hehe, you don't need to worry about that."

Before they knew it, it was nine o'clock. As the platform emerged from the darkness, the host's figure also appeared.

Host: Welcome to today's match. Today is the second day of the Demon King Tournament. I must say, yesterday's matches were more and more exciting than the last, and today's matches will be even more exciting. Yesterday we determined the top sixteen, and today we will select the top eight from them. So, in order, the first match today will be between Azathoth, the Elemental King from the Elemental Plane, and his army of the Immortals.

His opponent is Cybertron, a Necromantic Lord from the Underworld Plane. Unlike the Lich and Death Knight of the Prime Material Plane, he is a native of the Underworld, possessing the purest and most powerful Undead power. He holds the power of life and death over a wasteland in the Underworld, and now he is leading his Underworld army to descend upon our world.

So, is the Elemental King more powerful, or the Undead Lord more mighty? Let's find out today. Now, please invite the captains of the two competing teams to come to the stage.

Xiao Yu did not transform into Chaos Dragon today. His strength had already been proven, so there was no need to use some boring tricks to attract attention. He directly used the power of the gale to lift himself up and slowly floated onto the stage. On the other side, the Undead lord Cybertron also transformed into a wisp of black smoke and flew onto the stage.

Standing on the stage, Xiao Yu sized up his opponent.

He was no stranger to Undead creatures; these monsters were everywhere in the entire Sky World. However, the Undead of the Underworld were completely different from Undead of the Prime Material Plane. The Undead of the Underworld were not transformed from the dead, but rather evolved from souls lost in the Underworld that absorbed the power of death. It could be said that the former were artificially created, while the latter were naturally generated. Therefore, the Undead creatures of the Underworld looked down on the Undead creatures of the Prime Material Plane.

The Cybertron before them resembled a giant skeleton, but unlike any other, it was much larger, standing four or five meters tall. Unlike human or any other creature's skeleton, its bones were bizarrely shaped, with two curved horns on its head, four white bony arms, and its body shrouded in a white mist. The eerie white mist made it appear even larger. Its eyes glowed with azure soulfire, and it wore a golden crown and held a skull scepter, looking like a character straight out of a horror movie.

Xiao Yu didn't understand those guys who played Undead. Didn't they find it disgusting to be surrounded by zombies and skeletons all day? But since people were playing the Eastern Plaguelands Maggot, he didn't dwell on the issue too much.

The two powerful bosses greeted each other, and then the host came up.

Host: Welcome, welcome! Now, let's have the two contestants play a coin toss game to decide who will draw the map for today's competition.

Then Cybertron suddenly spoke, his voice as unpleasant and eerie as torn cloth.

Cybertron (Necromantic Lord): "Lord Azathoth is so powerful, I suppose he wouldn't mind me drawing the map. Of course, if Azathoth objects, we'll just flip a coin to decide."

Xiao Yu thought to himself, "Wow, this guy is cunning; he even knows how to put people down."

However, he was bursting with confidence at the moment, so he shrugged nonchalantly and, facing the host's gaze, spoke in his distorted, echoing voice.

Azathoth (Elemental King): "If this can bring him some psychological comfort, I don't mind giving a weak opponent a glimmer of hope."

Cybertron, however, didn't seem to mind Xiao Yu's sarcasm and simply nodded. "Very well, then I'll choose to have the system automatically generate the map."

The host nodded and pressed a switch on the stage.

System notification: BOSS data loading, map generation in progress, map element generation in progress, map background story editing in progress, map generation complete.

Map Name: Prison of the Gods (Large-scale Battle Map).

Map size: 100 km × 200 km.

Map Background: The Prison of the Gods. To protect the beautiful world they created, the gods imprisoned all the defeated and powerful demons, Undead, and all evil monsters that opposed them in this enormous prison. To prevent the minions of these evil demon kings from rescuing their masters, the gods dispatched twelve powerful guards to guard this prison. These guards, led by the Jailer King of Retribution, Algalon, watch over the prison day and night. For hundreds of years, no one has ever escaped from here.

However, with the fall of the gods, the Jail of the Gods gradually fell into disrepair, giving the demon king's subordinates an opportunity to take advantage of the situation. Azathoth, Elemental King, and Necromancer Lord Cybertron, two monster leaders who were once mortal enemies, are now imprisoned in this enormous prison.

Now, two armies of monsters have entered this prison, willing to do anything to rescue their master.

Map Element 1: Demon King's Prison. The most powerful BOSS is imprisoned here. His subordinates must rescue their master, but they must first defeat the guards. Each prison is guarded by a guard.

Map Element 2: Prisoners of the Gods. Besides you and your nemesis, other powerful demon lords are imprisoned here. Open the cages and release them, and you will reap unexpected rewards. The released monsters may join you, but perhaps they will repay kindness with enmity. After all, those who are qualified to be imprisoned in this prison are definitely not good people.

Map Element 3: Warden Algalon, created by the gods, guards this prison. If you can defeat Warden Algalon, you will gain control of the prison, and all the guards will obey your orders. Warden Algalon is an 8-skull level BOSS.

Victory condition: Kill the Demon King you are fighting.

Failure condition: Your own Demon King is killed.
