Chapter 437 The Demon King Actually Came Here
Inside the conference hall.
Kim asked Anno about her health with some concern.
"I'm alright now. Tell me about the Hunter of Gods!"
Anno is very interested in the God Hunters.
However, the God Hunter had already left Iron Fortress by this time.
"Speaking of which, this is the first time I've ever heard of the existence of God Hunters!"
Kim said excitedly, "President, did you know that these God Hunters are actually ninth-tier dwarves? I never imagined that the Dwarf Kingdom would have such an organization."
The existence of the Godhunters was even more awe-inspiring to Kim than that of the Godwalkers.
After all, these guys have the ability to kill gods!
Anno pressed further, "Did they say anything when they came?"
"They reported on the battle situation regarding Lord Hephaestus!"
Kim began to recount what had happened while Anno was in a coma.
Seven of the eight Walkers were killed, and the remaining Walker, who had been severely wounded by Sassi before unleashing his divinity, escaped while Anno was dealing with the last three Walkers.
He fled in the direction where Fred and the others were.
He originally intended to tell Fred that the plan had failed.
Unfortunately, he ran into the God Hunter who was on his way!
Facing the God Hunter, a heavily wounded sixth-tier Divine Walker was killed in a single exchange.
The two Swiftmen then assisted Hephaestus in killing Leopold and Galakh.
Only Fred, the strongest among them, escaped.
Hephaestus intended to continue the pursuit, but was stopped by a monster.
This person is none other than the supreme commander of the Demon King's army, the master of the Eight Demon Generals, and the king of the entire Demon Realm—the Demon King!
"What? You mean the Demon King came?"
Upon hearing this, Anno couldn't help but interrupt Kim.
There are too many rumors about this legendary demon king.
It not only possesses formidable strength, but also an extremely strong ability to dominate.
The entire Demon Realm is roughly the size of the Six Kingdoms Alliance, yet it has been unified by the current Demon King.
Besides Ungomulos, there are also demon kings in the demon realm and the underworld.
Almost every so often, the Demon King would send demons from the Demon Realm to attack the Six Kingdoms Alliance.
As for the Demon King's own strength.
Over the past few centuries, apart from the current Sword Saint of the Roland Empire, none of the other powerful figures who fought against the Demon King have survived.
Rumor has it that the Sword Saint was seriously injured back then.
In recent months, the Demon King's army has launched another war against the six kingdoms, but the Demon King himself has never appeared; it has always been the eight Demon Generals who have led the army.
Therefore, Anno was very curious when he heard that the Demon King had come to the Dwarf Kingdom.
"It wasn't me who said it, it was the God Hunter who said it!" Kim said, indicating that he had not seen any trace of the Demon King.
"The God Hunter said that the Demon King launched an attack on Lord Hephaestus, and the outcome of their battle is unknown. However, neither Lord Hephaestus nor the Demon King has appeared in the past two days."
"The outcome is unclear? Weren't the God Hunters providing support?"
"The God Hunter has gone to pursue the escaped Swiftwalker. The God Hunter said that this escaped Swiftwalker is likely plotting something terrible, and we must exterminate all Swiftwalkers who come to our territory."
"And then what happened?"
"It failed. So after the God Hunter arrived at Iron Fortress and saw that the crisis here had been resolved, he went on to continue searching for the whereabouts of that high-level Swift Walker."
"So that means the crisis in the Dwarf Kingdom has been temporarily resolved?"
"That's right. According to Gustav, who was following Sagunto's nonsense, Lord Hephaestus arrived at Sagunto first using a teleportation array, and then rushed to Iron Fortress."
Lord Hephaestus told the lord of Sagunto that the ghost crisis in the royal city had been largely resolved.
With the help of the guild master, the crisis at Steel Fortress has been resolved and the enemy has been defeated.
With two God Hunters currently stationed at the border, there shouldn't be any major problems.
I've heard that Sagunto has decided to send troops to reclaim the cities and towns that were previously lost from the monsters.
"Is it over?"
Anno felt something was off when she heard this.
The source of this unease was the few Swiftmen he had killed.
One of the Swiftmen shouted, "The gods are watching you," before his body collapsed.
This made Anno feel that he had apparently aroused the interest of these gods in this battle.
At first, Anno thought it was because of his identity as a summoner.
But recalling how Fred and the other two asked him for Pandora's Box, Anno thought that they might be interested in Pandora's Box.
Their visit to Steel Fortress this time is most likely due to their own reasons.
Back at the accommodation Kim had arranged for him, Anno took out Pandora's Box and examined it for a while. Suddenly, he let out a strange cry, startling Liz who was standing next to him.
"Master, what happened?"
"I'm so stupid, really!"
Anno lightly slapped his own face before entering the Evil King's Domain.
Place Pandora's Box on a boulder within the Evil King's domain.
Storage equipment cannot store Pandora's Box, but the Evil King's Domain does not have this restriction.
In previous battles, Anno had taken Pandora's Box with him inside.
But Anno has been ignoring this point.
"It's not enough to just keep it in the Evil King's Domain; we have to hide it. Otherwise, it will be troublesome if the enemy discovers it when we bring people in to fight next time."
With that thought in mind, Anno controlled the ground to crack open and threw Pandora's Box inside.
Then the ground trembled, and the crack closed.
After doing all this, Anuo only felt a slight sense of relief.
After all, the secret of possessing Pandora's Box was already known to those few gods.
This is simply to prevent more people from finding out.
"Since there are two God Hunters on the border of the Dwarf Kingdom now, it means this place should be relatively safe. If I stay here, even if those gods have designs on me, they shouldn't be able to get close to this place again."
Since the God Hunter possesses the power to slay a true god, their strength must be far greater than that of a ninth-tier Divine Walker.
The Swiftwalker would never dare to appear on the border of the dwarven kingdom, which has two Godhunters.
Therefore, Anno plans to stay in the Dwarf Kingdom for the foreseeable future.
While the crisis in the Dwarf Kingdom subsides, I'll use my reputation in Iron Fortress to establish the Adventurers' Guild.
This was also one of Anor's purposes in coming to the Dwarf Kingdom.
Kim and his two companions were the leaders of Iron Fortress, so when they heard that Anno wanted to open an adventurers' guild in Iron Fortress and make Kim the acting guild leader, Kim agreed without hesitation.
After all, once an adventurer's guild is established, the registered adventurer's identity can be used in any adventurer's guild.
Currently, there are few guilds. Once the six-nation alliance all have adventurer guilds, this will greatly promote exchanges between the two sides.
Kim also understood that the Adventurers' Guild could cultivate a large number of independent professionals.
Iron Fortress desperately needs a large influx of fresh blood – the dwarf soldiers currently stationed here are from Saguntor and will have to return sooner or later.
After the establishment of the first adventurers' guild in the Dwarf Kingdom, a large number of young dwarves immediately registered at the call of the three major families.
All the initial commissions were placed by people from the three major families.
Given the current state of Steel Fortress, the initial training costs for the first batch of adventurers can only be subsidized by the wealth of the three major families.
However, once the borders stabilize and trade with other cities resumes, these adventurers will move on to other cities.
The seeds of adventurers have been sown in the dwarf kingdom.
