    When this creature enters, create two 0/2 blue Illusion creature tokens with "Whenever this token blocks a creature, that creature doesn't untap during its controller's next untap step." This creature has hexproof as long as you control an Illusion.

    Mesmerizing Benthid has hexproof as long as you control any Illusion, not just Illusion tokens like the ones created by its first ability.

    The triggered ability of the Illusion tokens doesn't tap the attacking creature if it's untapped, most likely because it has vigilance.
