Faced with the open gates of demons and the endless stream of demons surging forth,
The players displayed a unique mindset.
He will neither die nor fear death.
For him, everything that happened here was never seen as reality.
Therefore, regarding the Demon Gate,
The players were filled with endless fervor, showing no fear whatsoever.
This was just a challenge for him.
In his view, these little devils were nothing more than experience packs used to level up.
Even if he dies, he can revive and return to the battlefield after a few seconds.
The more enemies he kills, the more experience he gains.
However, Owesser was not worried about this outsider with a unique mindset.
As a being possessing the power of a primordial demon, he was confident that after this period of training and adaptation, he had the ability to match his ambitions.
Therefore, when they saw that the Emperor's elder brother, Albany, was leading troops to reinforce the central district,
Owesser did not hesitate, no longer hiding the truth, and revealed it to everyone.
Tell them that it was he who summoned all the demons.
By controlling the entire capital, he was able to demonstrate his full power to Duke Rivi and the other surviving nobles.
He used this to force them to submit and recognize him as the emperor of the Karencia Empire.
At this point, Oweiser's plan was halfway complete.
The premise is that as long as the team cannot break into the central city area,
This demonic gate will be the final obstacle blocking their light of hope.
They couldn't stir up any trouble.
They're nothing but a rabble.
With this thought in mind, Oweiser left behind his last words:
"The only way to enter the central district is to go through the Demon Gate and deal with all the demons here."
"But once you go in, you will be met with certain death."
He suddenly swung his arm, which was wrapped in vines, and turned his back to them.
"Want to save the empire? Then give it a try."
As he spoke, he laughed hoarsely, his body gradually melting into a greasy pool of ink that suddenly merged into the door beneath him.
A classic behind-the-scenes villainous boss tactic.
To advance the plot, difficulties were created, while new main storylines and challenges were introduced as subsequent side quests.
It perfectly matches the plot development, without any flaws.
Meanwhile, the other NPCs were also very cooperative.
Countless mages looked troubled, even the knights with their unwavering faith and righteous character.
Even Albany himself seemed quite distressed when he saw the enormous door that kept spewing out little devils.
They had all heard Owesser's earlier warning.
Only by breaking through the Demon Gate can one enter the Central District.
Otherwise, it would stand forever on the edge of the city wall in the central district, blocking any attempt to advance further into the central district.
But obviously, such an eerie place is not one that just anyone can enter.
Just looking at the countless little demons covering the front gate, everyone already felt a deep sense of danger.
So what happens inside that demon's door?
No one knows how many demons are lurking there.
As is customary, this is the moment when NPCs should appear and give players quests.
Duke Reeves was naturally the most suitable candidate in the group.
He was the only one present who did not show fear or despair in the face of the demonic wave before him, and finally spoke:
"Although I don't want to trouble you again, as you can see,"
"We lack the courage to go into it."
Upon hearing this, many of the mages and knights beside Levi lowered their heads, feeling immense shame.
As Levi said, although they were full of passion and justice, they were still afraid when faced with the decision to step into the door of evil.
Having them stand on the outskirts of the central city to deal with the lesser demons pouring out from the Demon Gate is manageable.
But when asked to enter that unknown and dangerous door, the vast majority of them instinctively backed down.
After all, even if they were to sacrifice themselves inside, no one might know.
So this time, in front of everyone, Levi solemnly made a request to this human who was undaunted by difficulties:
"Therefore, I hope you can take on this mission as our vanguard, help us explore the path, and break through the Demon Gate."
"Of course, I will also give you the reward you deserve."
In fact, even Revy himself didn't think the other party would accept this dangerous and important mission.
The risks of this mission far exceed those of any previous one.
Even if the other party refuses, Reeves won't press the matter too much, after all, it's their choice.
Moreover, this person was never a member of their team.
However, just as he finished speaking, after pondering how to deal with the Demon Gate,
The adventurer before him seemed to have made his decision without hesitation.
The next second, a clear signal flashed through Reeves' mind.
He agreed.
Although the adventurer did not utter a word, Levi clearly sensed the other's determination.
His eyes widened in surprise, and he looked up, staring in awe at the adventurer before him, his voice trembling involuntarily.
"You agreed?"
Even he himself didn't notice that the form of address had changed from "you" to the more respectful "you (formal)".
Upon hearing Levi's words, the other members of the group all turned their heads, their gazes fixed on the adventurer.
In that silent moment, their eyes were filled with admiration.
Although he didn't say much, at that moment his image became incredibly tall and reliable in everyone's eyes.
Like a living hero, a savior who can rescue all living beings from dire straits.
