The dark shadows from the lower planes couldnât resist trying to get a share of the action.
At the Night Walker Headquarters.
âThe Molten Clan has gone crazy⌠There has never been such an exaggerated attack in the past millennium, especially since Leader killed the Molten Lord.â
A pale, slender female Night Walker reported, âOur people canât keep going. Most of the Rangers and mercenaries are already preparing to retreat. The Blue Mountainâs Dwarves are also getting ready to flee.â
âWe canât keep defending the stronghold.â
In the cabin, three of the Night Walkers Organizationâs Legends were present.
Constantine and OâBrien had serious expressions.
When they left the Supreme Jungle and went to help the North, they never thought that things would reach this stage.
This place was the Night Walkersâ northern headquarters, the Dark Forest Stronghold.
Few people in Feinan knew about this place.
This was the only land in Feinan known to border the Nine Hells.
The plane extended toward that place, and its space was gradually distorting downward.
And there was a solid node that linked these two completely unfamiliar territories. If not for the Universe Magic Poolâs faint protection, repelling the powerhouses of hell from approaching, it might have already fallen to the Devils.
But now, Dark Forest Stronghold was facing its harshest ordeal.
In the past week, all the fortressâ defenders came out and struck back against the forces of the Molten Clan.
They suffered a disastrous defeat after falling into the Devilsâ ambush.
Despite OâBrien having tyrannical strength, which let him cut a bloody path out of the ambush to let the survivors return to the stronghold, the stronghold was still on the verge of falling.
It had to be known that the Dark Forest Stronghold was occupied by the locals. The main fighting force consisted of some Rangers of the North and various recruited mercenaries, while the Blue Mountain Dwarves that had been living here for many generations also contributed notable numbers.
But under the frightening attacks of the Molten Clan, these forces were almost wiped out.
If the Universe Magic Pool was still intact as usual, they would have had the option of recruiting help from the nearby city-states to replenish their military strength.
After all, the Night Walkers had accumulated shocking amounts of wealth across the generations.
But this time, the North was in a mess due to Chaos Magic Power. The inhabitants had already fallen into an unprecedentedly weak state.
And because of the disappearance of the Planar Barrier, more powerful Greater Devils began to appear as reinforcements for Hellâs side.
In that previous battle, three Greater Devils, with strength comparable to that of some Gods, had appeared together and jointly caused the defendersâ defeat.
Despite OâBrien being extremely courageous, he was still outnumbered.
The most frightening thing was that these three Greater Devils were well known for attacking Feinan in the past.
In this world, only one person could order these three to join hands.
And that was the Nine Hellsâ Molten Archdevil!
The Molten Archdevil seemed to have taken advantage of the unstable state of the Dark Forest Stronghold to make his move!
Thus, the three Night Walkers had very wearied expressions.
If the Molten Archdevil really acted, no one there would be able to stop him!
âHell has already begun putting their plans into motion.â
OâBrien coughed and furrowed his brows. âI heard that the Supreme Jungle suffered an invasion from the Scorched Hell. Diross and the Molten Archdevil actually attacked Feinan at the same time. This is really strange.â
âThe Abyss, which always used to keep Hell in check, is being strangely silent. There is no news of any Demon Lord making a move on Hell. And that group of Gods is in battle with the Astral Beast⌠We canât hope for the Beasts or the Evil Spirits to keep Hell in check for us.â
These words made the other two sink into a somber silence.
OâBrien smiled as he concluded, âYou go.â
âI was born here, I shall be buried here.â
âBut the Night Walkersâ fire canât stop burning.â
Constantine and that woman firmly shook their heads.
OâBrien firmly stated, âI am the Night Walkersâ Leader, you canât disobey my command.â
âSophie, Constantine. As the current Leader of the Night Walkers, I order you to lead our remaining brothers and sisters in retreat.â
âGo to White River Valley, Marvin will need your help.â
After saying this, he thought for a bit before handing a box to Constantine and adding, âGive this to Marvin, I believe he will understand what I mean.â
Constantine was stunned. âAre you sure?â
Sophie strongly argued, âHow could you directly hand the [Eternal Night Paradise] to a child?â
âCould it be that you really want to pass the leadership of the Night Walkers onto him?â
OâBrienâs expression became very cold. âYou have no right to question my decision.â
âYou only need to carry out my command!â
Sophie angrily stomped her feet, unable to stop her tears from flowing out.
She looked at OâBrienâs face with a complicated expression.
Constantine clenched his teeth as he put the box away.
OâBrienâs expression suddenly changed.
Frightening black flames descended from the sky and started to collapse the city walls. Everyone started running for their lives!
In that distant reddish-black hole, countless Devil charged their way out.
A cold voice made its way over: âKill!â
The Dark Forest Strongholdâs city walls instantly collapsed.
Countless souls were directly sucked away, and a black hole even formed in mid-air.
Standing in the ruins, three Night Walkers looked bitterly at the sky.
OâBrien flew forward, killing his way through the Devil Army rushing out of that hole!
Sophie let out some bitter sobs. She wanted to join OâBrien, but she was pulled back by Constantine.
âWe have to go,â Constantine said resolutely.
The two began retreating.
But even so, they still couldnât help looking back.
The last thing they saw was the scene of that shadow pouncing on those Devils like a fierce tiger on its prey.
Just like the first time they saw him, he turned into a sharp spear that seemed to be able to pierce through everything, leaving corpses in its wake!
This most likely wasnât the most resourceful Leader in the history of the Night Walkers.

But this was the bravest one.
The flames consumed the stronghold.
No one could stop Hellâs steady advance.
Constantine and Sophie took the rest of the Night Walkers and mercenaries to retreat. But at the same time, a black shadow appeared on the hill in front of them.
That person looked like a black flame.
