Merlin came out of the Artificial World with the simulated moon.
Spirit Deity Gondolin was sealed within the simulated moon. The mountains on the moon had accumulated a lot of power, ready to erupt at any moment.
When the mountain unleashed its power, the simulated moon wouldn't be able to contain this Spirit Deity any longer. Merlin had to bring it out of the Artificial World. Because he knew that with his current power, he was not strong enough to deal with this mid-level Demigod.
After coming out to the real world, Merlin sensed the impending danger.
“These dogs smell really fast. They are already chasing me as soon as I step out of the Artificial World.”
Merlin was aware of the incoming danger. One was Spirit Deity Gondolin in front of him. And another was about to rush in. Not only that, but he also had a hunch that there weren't only two Spirit Deities who joined the Dragon S. Clan invasion.
The Dragon S. Clan was truly facing dangers from all around.
