Chapter 648: Chapter 449: Furnace Fortress City_1
Amidst his astonishment, Leo Ray began to observe carefully.
He noticed that these heavily armored soldiers were about 1.3 meters tall, each wielding heavy hammers and battle axes.
Compared to ordinary humans, these soldiers were short but extremely sturdy, far from ordinary, giving an overwhelming sense of oppression.
At the moment, because of their fully enclosed helmets, Leo Ray could not see the soldiers’ faces.
However, he could feel that the hundreds of soldiers before him were all at least Tier 3 Senior Powerhouses, their heavy armor and weapons both dazzling and eye-catching.
“An entire squad with Tier 4 equipment? This is undoubtedly the highest level I’ve seen so far. Encountering such a force right away shows that this city’s combat power is incredibly formidable.”
At this point, Leo Ray’s eyes narrowed, continuing to watch while murmuring to himself, “Then again, the Immortal Gate hides a fully functioning city inside it…”
Just as Leo Ray thought about this,
From among the soldiers, the commanding officer stepped forward, lifting the face guard of his helmet while sternly shouting, “Unidentified intruders, leave immediately!”
Then, the commander’s voice intensified, “You have entered the great Furnace Castle City without permission. As the City Defense Officer, I warn you that if you take another step forward, you will face our boundless fury and deadly attacks.”
At this moment, looking at the face reveal from lifting the face guard, Leo Ray’s face showed sudden enlightenment.
With their dense, stiff brown beards, big noses, and unmistakable figures, it was clear to which race these soldiers and the city belonged.
“Are these the Dwarves?”
Realizing this, Leo Ray nodded slightly, continuing to ponder, “I’ve heard many times before of this famous race that rivals the Elf Tribe. I’ve also learned that many Dwarf Clan ruins have indeed been found underground in various Coldflame Regions. But after the Era of Blankness ended, the Dwarves should have disappeared. How come there is such a vast city in the old mining area of Golin City?”
As he gazed at the Tier 5 City Defense Officer of the Dwarf Clan, his body clad in Tier 5 equipment, Leo Ray hesitated, then showed a look of sudden enlightenment.
He thought, “In that case, there’s only one possible answer…”
At that moment when Leo Ray thought of this,
The surrounded mysterious organization’s powerhouses, led by No. 7 Black-robed Person and No. 9 Black-robed Person, remained silent and walked right towards the Tier 5 Dwarf City Defense Officer, as if he didn’t exist at all.
Next, just as when No. 7 Black-robed Person and No. 9 Black-robed Person were about to collide with the majestic Dwarf City Defense Officer, the latter simply turned into energy particles, quickly disappearing completely.
“Humph, such a low-level illusion trying to deceive me? Utterly overestimating your abilities.”
After breaking through the encirclement, the hunched No. 9 Black-robed Person snorted coldly and then spoke to the other powerhouses from the mysterious organization, “The heart of the Illusion Realm’s formation should be nearby. Find it quickly so I can break it personally. We must not let this little trick hinder our mission!”
“As you command, Lord of the Ninth Asura!” On the other side, the powerhouses of the mysterious organization bowed respectfully before vanishing into the Immortal Gate.
Then, No. 7 and No. 9 Black-robed Persons exchanged glances and slowly entered the gate.
Only those illusionary Dwarf soldiers remained motionless and threatening at the entrance.
“Lord, this indeed is a simple illusion that causes no real harm, including these soldiers and the bustling cityscape inside.”
Seeing that all the mysterious organization’s powerhouses had entered the giant metal gate, Red Night gently raised her eyebrows and whispered, “However, for a race like the Dwarves who are not skilled in magic, achieving this and maintaining it for thousands of years is already quite impressive.”
“I see, so this Dwarf city known as Furnace Castle was indeed destroyed during the Era of Blankness?”
Hearing this, Leo Ray nodded thoughtfully and then said, “Alright, let’s move forward and take a look.”
“By your command, Lord!” Upon hearing this, all the subordinates saluted in unison.
With that, Leo Ray, who was still riding on Taylor, bypassed the illusionary soldiers and stood in front of the Immortal Gate.
At this moment, since the illusion inside the gate had not yet been broken,
Leo Ray couldn’t help but marvel at the sight.
Up close, the former Dwarf city was indeed prosperous.
The location of the Immortal Gate was much higher than the main city area inside, so more than half of the city was fully visible before Leo Ray’s eyes.
