I opened an adventurer's guild in another world.

According to Anno's speculation, the moon should be ready to be used again when it shines again.

We just don't know how long it will take for the moon to recharge; we'll need to investigate that for a while longer.

The dragon scorpion, now a corpse, can be placed within the Evil King's Domain, just like Pandora's Box, and will not appear outside the world even after Anno removes the Evil King's Domain.

Anno looked at the broken and deformed magic armor on the ground and felt a pang of heartache.

Although the Frostfang armor wasn't damaged, this set of magic armor was no longer wearable.

It was the culmination of the work of two of the three major families of Steel Fortress, but it was ruined in Anno's hands after just over a month.

"However, using the materials from this guy should be enough to forge armor with even higher defense."

Anno looked at the carapace that the dragon scorpion had shed and felt a little better.

With its ten-meter-long size as a seventh-tier dragon scorpion, it could even forge a set of magical armor for Adelaide!

After tidying up a bit, removing and putting away the skull ring on his finger, Anno took a deep breath and closed the Evil King's True Eye.

The next instant, Anno appeared amidst the ruins.

Meanwhile, Liz, along with the dwarf Suba and six human professionals, were attacking the charging dragon scorpion.

When Anno appeared, the connection between master and servant allowed Liz to sense his presence first.

"Owner!"

After dealing with the fifth-tier dragon scorpion in front of her, Liz immediately went to Anno's side to check on his injuries.

Anno went to fight a seventh-tier dragon scorpion head-on for their sake, and the danger involved was self-evident.

However, Anno doesn't seem to have any injuries.

Anno glanced around, his gaze turning grave as he looked at the massive black figure battling six human professionals.

"Why is there another seventh-tier dragon scorpion?"

Its enormous size and carapace, its powerful [Tail Spike Cannon], and its level 36.

If Liz hadn't brought anyone with her, Anno might have been targeted by this seventh-tier dragon scorpion as soon as he stepped out of the domain.

"again?"

Liz looked at Anno with a puzzled expression and asked, "Master, isn't this the same dragon scorpion from before?"

When Liz arrived here with reinforcements, she found a seventh-tier dragon scorpion nearby and assumed it was the same one from before.

Because the master-servant relationship was still in place, Liz knew that Anno's safety was not a problem.

If he's not on the battlefield, he's most likely seeking refuge in the Evil King's domain.

Anno shook his head.

The one from before has already dedicated its soul to Anno.

Anno then took a closer look at the several figures fighting the seventh-tier dragon scorpion, a puzzled expression on his face.

"Besides Camilla, there are five others as well."

Anno was even more puzzled when he learned from Liz that Camilla and the others had been entrusted by Oka, the son of Lord Oen, to rescue him.

Strictly speaking, I didn't have a very good relationship with the six people, including Camilla.

Given their status, if they didn't intend to save lives, Ouka wouldn't have been able to persuade them to help.

After all, their true identities are the six god-class professions of humankind!

On the battlefield, Camilla and her six companions were locked in fierce combat with the seventh-tier dragon scorpions.

Warriors wielding two-handed greatswords and knights with shields and spears charged forward, leaving marks on the dragon scorpion's hard carapace.

The enchanted arrows fired from the hunter's magic bow explode every time they hit their target.

The mages and priests chanted spells continuously, bombarding the dragon scorpion with various spells. Camilla, as a priest, even took the time to heal the others in front of her.

The thief would occasionally emerge from the shadows and attack the dragon scorpion's weak points. After each strike, whether successful or not, he would immediately retreat.

Although there were only six of them, they managed to temporarily tie the fight with the Dragon Scorpion.

Moreover, the dragon scorpion had many wounds in the gaps of its carapace, and there were also huge gashes on its pincers from the warrior's greatsword.

In the first phase, the dragon scorpion's main melee attack methods are its pincers and claws, while its ranged attacks rely on the [tail sting cannon] fired from its tail.

Although its attack power is very strong, the dragon scorpion is still mainly defensive at this time, and its movements are relatively sluggish, like a tank with high attack and high defense.

The second-stage Dragon Scorpion is truly terrifying, with its increased speed, immense destructive power, and the addition of a new ranged attack: Dragon Flame Breath. It may also possess other unforeseen abilities.

At this point, the Dragon Scorpion becomes a high-attack, high-agility battlefield meat grinder.

Anno discovered that the armor on the roaring dragon scorpions on the battlefield had not been completely destroyed; it was only in the first stage.

"As expected of the Swift Walkers, they can hold off a seventh-tier dragon scorpion that would take about fifty level 34 sixth-tier summons to their last breath."

Although the Dragon Scorpion is a stage, Camilla and other Swiftwalkers have not yet unleashed their divinity.

The situation has now reached a temporary equilibrium, with neither side able to gain the upper hand.

However, if Camilla and the others run out of magic, the situation will likely shift in Dragon Scorpion's favor.

If Anno had magic, he might step forward to help Camilla try to defeat the seventh-tier dragon scorpion and break through to the seventh tier in one fell swoop.

But he only has a pitiful few thousand mana, not even enough to unleash a single sixth-tier skill.

The sixth-tier summoned creatures were either injured or dead.

Even the magic armor was destroyed.

If he rushes forward now and gets hit by the dragon scorpion's attack, he'll likely be knocked out on the spot.

"Lord Smedley, thank you for your rescue!"

While using Frost Fang to fight the pouncing mid-level dragon scorpions with physical skills, Anno shouted towards the battlefield not far away, "Let's retreat now!"

Camilla, who was atop a building casting holy light magic, glanced back at Anno, then turned to the mage beside her and said, "High-level dragon scorpions have a second form. Our current level is too low; we'll only have a chance if we unleash our divinity. Let's go!"

The monks nodded upon hearing this. They had been gods for over a thousand years and had an impression of creatures like dragon scorpions.

"Then let me finish this up!"

The mage twirled his staff, and the fiery red magic crystals flashed frequently. Then, ten fireballs, each one meter in diameter, condensed in a circle above the mage's head.

"Get out of here!"

As the mage pointed his staff at the location of the dragon scorpion, all the fireballs instantly flew over from all directions.

The warriors and knights who had retreated earlier immediately returned to Camilla and the other person's side after the dragon scorpion was engulfed by the towering flames.

Hunters from another direction arrived in a few leaps and bounds through the air.

"That kid Anno isn't hurt."

A petite, masked figure suddenly appeared among the group, spoke, and then disappeared back into the shadows.

The six then quickly retreated in the direction of Anno, taking advantage of the seventh-tier dragon scorpion's inability to react before they left the battlefield with Anno.
