[Contaminated Heart]
[Magic Materials]
[Color: Silver]
[Attributes: Slightly enhance Magic Stone Energy]
[Introduction: A normal creature infected by energy from the Abyss transforms into a monster, with its once blood-pumping heart becoming the core of Evil Energy.]
Kane looked at the three dark hearts with red energy cracks in his hand. This could be considered the most disgusting material he had ever encountered, but since they were silver, no matter how disgusting, he had to carefully collect them.
And those knights and soldiers fighting alongside Kane seed completely oblivious to the magic items that the demons would turn into ashes and drop; they didn’t react significantly to Kane and his team’s actions.
It’s uncertain whether it’s a certain cognitive shield of the dungeon or perhaps the effect caused by the mist.
At this ti, Longbei had already gathered his team and handed the magic equipnt he just picked up to Kane for identification.
Kane received the magic equipnt, which seed to be the leg armor from the demon they just defeated.
Forged from dark heavy tal, its surface etched with unknown patterns, even the patterns themselves exuded a very sinister feeling.
[Evil Trample]
[Leg Armor]
[Color: Silver]
[Attributes: Moderately enhance Physical Defense]
[Skills: Evil Trample (Costs magic power to stomp the ground forcefully; evil energy will spread from beneath, dealing damage and slowing enemies.)]
[Introduction: A signature skill of War Demons, specially crafted armor for their burly legs, countless lives vanished under their feet.]
The attributes and skills of this equipnt were quite suitable for Longbei, though only its specifications were not right.
Passing the equipnt to Longbei, he took a modification stone and tapped on the leg armor, transforming it into a shape suitable for Longbei amidst a burst of radiance.
Once Longbei equipped the armor, everyone returned to the group.
At this mont Koblo approached: "Thank you all deeply for your assistance."
"No need for that, it’s all for the peace of the world."
Subsequently, the largest team continued forward, with Kane and his companions trailing behind, ready to handle any formidable monsters that might appear.
It was a massive troop; civilians, soldiers, or even rangers patrolling nearby looked at Kane and his companions with eyes filled with admiration for the strong.
In this region, only those who could combat demons were regarded as strong.
During the later journey, the attacking monsters were rely small fry compared to the earlier ones, no longer featuring figures like War Demons.
Sporadically, assembling patrol squads appeared, indicating they had essentially entered the second line of defense.
Before long, they finally saw a stone-built dark fortress standing on the desolate plain not far away.
Before Kane and his team reached it, a squad of soldiers ca to process the civilians, leading them into the second line of defense.
At this ti, Koblo walked over.
"Captain Kane, please accompany ; I’ll lead you into the fortress."
After speaking, he led them to the fortress’s gates.
Approaching, it beca apparent that the fortress’s surface seed coated with a layer of magical material, causing the fortress’s outer walls to emit a faint eerie glow.
The fort walls were mounted with countless defensive artillery, though they were sowhat outdated devices. But then, even outdated defensive devices shouldn’t be underestimated in their power.
"Captain Kane, please have your team wait here briefly; a priest will co to identify you, determining whether you’re enemies aligned with the Abyss. For the fortress’s safety, please understand."
Such a request was naturally no problem for Kane and his team, especially since this dungeon’s situation had been battling demons for nearly 200 years.
No amount of caution could be deed excessive, all understandable, since demons aren’t all brutes, many are wicked and cunning ones.
Not long after, Koblo arrived with an old man in a white robe.
This elderly man wore a pure white robe adorned with green patterns. His chest and back bore a large green symbol, perhaps representing the deity they revered.
He ca over and glanced at Kane and his team, then nodded satisfyingly: "More fresh blood joining the holy war, aiding us in resisting the demons. Brave young ones, stay where you are, don’t resist. I will identify if you’re wicked beings leaning towards the Abyss."
After speaking, he lifted the giant wooden staff he used as a walking stick, with a large pure white tal sphere embedded atop, resembling more of a lee giant hamr than a magic staff.
A faint glow emitted from it, which then swept across Kane and his team without causing any abnormal reactions.
"Alright, no issues, you may enter the fortress."
With that, he smiled at Kane and his teammates before leaving alone.
At this point, Koblo ca up to say: "Captain Kane, please follow ; our commander wants to et you."
Kane and his team entered the fortress, whose interior was not spacious, with various buildings cramd together, bustling with soldiers armored from head to toe.
Almost all these soldiers seed to have magic power reactions, indicating they were the backbone in defending against demons.
Nurous squads could also be seen, dressed far more casually compared to soldiers, with varied equipnt combinations and not patrolling around, but gathering to chat everywhere.
Following Koblo, they soon arrived at the tallest building within the fortress.
This should be the administrative center of the fortress, the only place where writing personnel could be seen.
Inside, many were engaged in disputes, with a massive map at the room’s center, seemingly depicting the surrounding terrain.
"Captain Kane, please wait a mont; I’ll report this."
Then Koblo rushed to the map beside a middle-aged burly man clad in silver-white armor, who was frowning intently at his sand table.
Upon hearing Koblo’s report, he lifted his gaze to Kane and his team, then ca towards them.
He reached Kane, extended a hand to shake his: "Hello, I am Commander Sakerem of this fortress. I deeply appreciate your support; my soldiers have inford of your help along the way. I am thrilled about your willingness to volunteer for the holy war."
"Commander Sakerem, hello, I’m Kane, and these are my teammates. Protecting the world and resisting evil need not be spoken further."
