I opened an adventurer's guild in another world.

Among the sea creature soldiers who remained behind was a level 38, tier 7 sea creature yaksha.

With Anno's current strength, he could easily annihilate the remaining sea creature soldiers.

The problem is that there are more than 500 mid-level creatures plus one seventh-level sea creature.

Once the battle starts, it will definitely cause quite a stir.

Even if Anno brings the seventh-tier Yaksha into the Evil King's domain, there's no guarantee that the sea creatures outside won't relay the message to the sea creatures on the second level.

Does anyone know if these sea creatures have magic conch shells on them?

"This is a bit troublesome!"

Anno sighed after pondering for a moment.

Anno hadn't dared to enter the second level because he was worried about being blocked. Although the [Evil King's True Eye] had recovered during the truce outside Gruul Town, it would only last for half an hour at most.

Once trapped on the second or third level, Anno won't be able to escape.

If you hide on the first floor and are discovered, you can use the portal to return to Gruul Town.

But to their surprise, the sea creatures didn't bother to thoroughly investigate the first floor and simply followed the half-dragon statue that was leading the way to the second floor.

Furthermore, personnel remained on site.

"Damn it, they left so many people on the first floor. Does having a half-dragon statue to guide them mean the sea creatures don't need to fight the guards?"

Anno couldn't think of a way to deal with these sea creatures without making a scene.

Ultimately, Anno decided to wait a while.

We'll make our move after the main force of the sea creatures has penetrated deep into the lower levels.

At worst, we can just kill that demon and he'll run away.

Even Anno from Hidden Dragon City doesn't intend to take it anymore; they can't go back empty-handed.

Ten minutes passed quickly.

Anno felt that the sea creatures should have already entered the fourth level by now.

"Get ready! Get ready!"

Inside the small room where the portal was located, Anno regained consciousness and led Liz and the others out.

But just around the corner from the main hall, magical fluctuations and sounds of fighting suddenly emanated from within.

"???"

Anno immediately stopped, leaned against the wall, and looked back.

Liz, Sassi in human form, and Buck.

Everyone is here.

Why is there a fight outside?

A wolf's head emerged from the shadows beneath their feet.

It was the Shadow Wolf who had been hiding in the shadows of the hall.

The shadow wolf growled softly at Anno, "Awoo~ Awoo... Awoo~......"

Anno nodded thoughtfully and said, "I see!"

When Anno's consciousness returned, Shadow Wolf remained where it was, waiting for Anno's true form to come over.

But in that short interval, another group of people rushed out of the passage.

There were only six people.

They all wore white hoods, and beneath the cloaks covering their bodies were blue and white armor.

Strength, at least at the seventh rank!

After this group appeared, they immediately started fighting with the sea creatures in the lobby on the first floor.

The leader, wearing a white hood, charged directly at the seventh-tier Yaksha, spear in hand.

In a single exchange, the Yaksha coughed up blood and was sent flying backward.

The Yaksha, who had just climbed up from the wall, and Anno, who was hiding around the corner, exclaimed in surprise at the same time, "Eighth Rank!"

Swish swish~!

The spear made a dull sound in the air as the eighth-tier white hood shook.

The air currents billowed the white hooded cape, revealing the armor and insignia beneath.

"The Temple of Discipline!"

Anno frowned upon recognizing the symbol, thinking to himself: If the royal city needs support, they should ask the mages of the kingdom's magic sanctuary or the thieves of the Dark Shadows. Why are the knights of the Discipline Temple involved?

The high-ranking knights of the Discipline Temple are only available at headquarters—any Discipline Temple knight who advances to a high rank will be transferred back to headquarters.

The headquarters of the Temple of Discipline is located in the Roland Empire.

Their actions were far too swift.

"These knights don't seem to be here to stop the sea creatures."

After a moment's thought, Anno had a guess in mind.

The sea creatures just now had two members at the eighth rank: one from the shark race and one from the seahorse race.

As for the seventh rank, there are as many as thirteen!

The Discipline Temple's lineup consists of one eighth-tier and five seventh-tier members.

Going to find the sea creatures is just pure gifting.

But dealing with the sea creatures on the first floor shouldn't be a big problem.

Before long, the seventh-tier yaksha was pierced through the heart by the spear.

"hehe……"

The Yaksha spat out a mouthful of blood and gave the knight in front of him a smile.

Clang.

A demonic conch shell fell from the Yaksha's hand.

He had just relayed the situation on the first floor to the Mermaid Princess.

Pfft!

The eighth-rank knight drew his spear and thrust it out like lightning.

The yaksha's head exploded like a bursting watermelon.

Both sides were inside the underground city, and neither used their full strength in order to prevent the first floor from collapsing.

However, a seventh-tier Yaksha is ultimately no match for an eighth-tier Knight.

However, the surrounding mid-level sea creatures have not yet been completely cleared out.

Faced with the disparity in strength, the sea creatures' charge was more like a line of suicide missions.

Even so, these sea creatures did not back down.

Everyone saw it as a willingness to die!

After killing the Yaksha, the eighth-tier knight Isidor didn't join the other knights in killing the sea creatures. Instead, he shouted to those around him, "Friends, you've been hiding for so long, aren't you going to come out and help?"

Anno's heart skipped a beat, and he thought to himself: We've been discovered!

He turned and gestured to Liz, and the group turned to return to the small room they had been in before.

Anno will not join forces with these knights until he knows their specific objectives.

"Hehehe... We've been discovered!"

After Isidore finished shouting, a cloud of smoke suddenly rose in the hall, and ten figures dressed in black robes emerged from it.

Anno stopped in his tracks upon hearing the sound, peeked out secretly, and then immediately pulled his head back.

"Another Rank 8!"

Isidore frowned, looking at the dark figure, and asked uncertainly, "Someone from the Demon Realm?"

The leader of the black-robed men said menacingly, "It's not easy to come to Angomulos. We must bring these things back with us."

I guess you received the same instructions.

Moreover, there are other hidden people around who haven't come out yet.

Whether we are hostile to each other or allied with each other, we are enemies at this moment.

But before that, let's follow those little fish.

"Don't let us lose everything before we even see the item."

Click!

A skeletal hand emerged from the roof, followed by a pure gold skull.

Behind it were several silver skulls.

"I am from the Underworld, from the Eastern Region of the Underworld, a general under Auguga of the Eastern Region, and I agree to the proposal of my friends from the Demon Realm."

With the appearance of the man in black robes and the golden skull, more people soon came out into the open in the hall on the first floor.

There are almost a hundred people in total.

The lowest level is Rank 7, and the leaders are all Rank 8!

Each wave of people that came out would wipe out a group of sea creatures.

By this time, all the sea creatures in the hall had died.

"What day is it today? Why are there so many high-level beings here?!"

This was the first time Anno had ever seen so many seventh-tier beings.

He couldn't help but imagine these high-level melee scenarios in his mind.

In this way, he can collect a lot of seventh-tier souls.

Unfortunately, judging from their conversation, it seems unlikely that a fight will break out.
