Chapter 881: This is... Demon Steel!

Now, everyone has finally arrived outside the walls of the Demon Kings Castle. Looking up, they can see the towering castle standing next to them, and they can reach out and touch its scorching black walls. The wall is constructed from a peculiar type of black stone, and the monsters clearly have no sense of architectural aesthetics. The sizes of the stones are inconsistent, piled haphazardly, and the gaps between them are filled with some kind of mud-like substance. Its a rather crude construction, to say the least.

As for the material of these stones, no one knows what it is. Despite being exposed to the heat of the lava river for a long time, they havent become brittle or collapsed.

Upon seeing these stones, a gleam suddenly appeared in Robbs eyes. He reached into his bag to find a mining pick.

Meanwhile, Chris and the others circled around the city wall.

Chris looked up at the wall; there are no sentinels on top. In fact, if there were any sentinels up there, they would have been spotted when they crossed the lava moat.

Chris, Lets prepare to climb up.

Okay! the others respond.

Chris commanded them, The two hunters go up first. After climbing up, stick your heads out about halfway on the wall, and then activate your detection spells to get a clear view of the situation up there. Then well follow.

Everyone nodded in agreement. However, they wondered how to actually climb the wall.

The hunter considered which skill to use for climbing when he suddenly saw Robb coming over. Robb swung his small mining pick and thrust it into the wall in front of him. He kept mining for 2 seconds, then pulled his hand back, leaving a small dent in the wall. However, he now has a square piece of black stone in his hand.

The hunter said, Thanks for digging a hole for me.

With that, he leapt onto the dent, stood firmly, took out his dagger, and stabbed higher up, trying to dig another hole. He continued trying to make a hole, but unexpectedly, his steel dagger couldnt penetrate the black wall. Instead, it only vibrated and made his arm numb.

Hey, hey, hey? The Hunter looked down, Whats with this wall? I dont know what material its made of, but my dagger cant even scratch it.

Chris says, Dont scratch the stone; look for footholds in the gaps between them.

Robb nodded, This type of stone is called Demon Steel. Its even better than Titansteel. Ill dig some for crafting while you all continue forward. If you have any problems, call me on my phone, and Ill be there quickly.

Xuelu acknowledged and began to climb up.

As a result, nine people were on top of the wall, leaving only Robb below, still there swinging the small mining pick and digging away.

Chris saw he hadnt come up and was somewhat surprised. He asked Xuelu, Why isnt he coming up? Whats he digging there for?

Xuelu replied, He said we should leave someone outside the city to provide support.

Chris sensed that Xuelu was not telling the whole truth and thought, [Well, its their matter after all. I shouldnt pry too much.]

He nodded and said, Then the nine of us will continue forward.

The nine of them waved to Robb, who was still mining below, and stealthily entered the Demon Kings Castle

They climbed down from the city wall and entered the deep passage of the Demon Kings Castle. Xuelu was so excited that her hands were trembling. In truth, the other adventurers werent much better, except for Suofa who remained composed. She had a military background and wasnt particularly enthusiastic about adventures. For her, entering the Demon Kings Castle felt the same as going on a mission inside an enemy kingdoms fortress no excitement whatsoever.

However, the other eight adventurers had their blood boiling with every step they took.

Where should we look for evidence of the alliance between the monsters and the Church of Light? Gorda whispered.

Up there! Chris whispered back, Considering the circumstances, the Demon King must surely reside at the topmost floor of the castle. Well make our way to the higher levels of the castle and search room by room. Were bound to find something.

They continued their stealthy journey through the castle, one step at a time, their determination unwavering.
