Don't call me evil god

Reina could sense the dangerous aura of Bron when she was in the Realm of Truth.

[Revelation of All Secrets] can present relevant information about Bron.

The opponent is a standard 4th level warrior.

Of course, now he should be a 4th level warrior injected with the power of the evil god.

Probably similar to the Dursleys of the Bloodfang Gang, their fighting skills will be distorted and mutated, and the anger aroused in their bodies will become more violent.

In short, he is definitely not an easy guy to deal with.

When tracking, Reina didn't even dare to get too close to the opponent, for fear that Bron would notice the change in the concentration of shadow energy nearby and realize the existence of the stalker.

Similar to the 4th level illusion old butler Winnekes in the Countess's castle, they are all capable of finding the approximate location of the stalker and forcing him to get out of hiding.

But Bron Freeman's alertness is very low, so low that Reina felt that he was not worthy of his 4th level warrior strength at first.

The other party was not alert at all. He was first seen near the goblin post on the 5th floor of the stone fortress.

After taking the anonymous letter as usual, Bron immediately rushed towards the Freeman family territory on the lower floor of the stone fortress.

With a clear goal, he kept moving.

It didn't take Reina much effort to lock Bron's position.

She didn't act immediately.

There were many people outside, and the road was full of pedestrians. Moreover, the closer to the bottom of the stone fortress, the more cultists were hiding.

If you act rashly, it's hard to say who will be beaten up!

You need to find an opportunity when the other party is alone.

I thought Bron would go home to rest directly, or perform some tasks assigned to him by the messenger of the Supreme Truth Church, but to Reina's surprise: when the other party reached the 2nd floor through the elevator, Reina had to turn on [Stealth] to continue tracking, but Bron went straight to the bottom of the stone fortress, which was the root of the furnace that only a few dwarves could enter.

"What is he going there for?"

A trace of doubt flashed through Reina's mind.

She remembered that Pete mentioned it when sharing intelligence.

After Bron Freeman showed abnormal behaviors such as receiving anonymous letters, leaving the Stone Castle for a long time, and going deep into the Spirit Wing Wetland, he was no longer enthusiastic about his original exquisite casting skills and had not forged anything for a long time.

The big furnace at the bottom of the Stone Castle was almost built on the surface of the magma lake, where the temperature was the highest and the heat was the most sufficient, and the infinite heat from the magma flowed into the furnace.

Ordinary dwarves simply could not master how to control the rhythm of forging in such an environment.

Only the most skilled and excellent dwarves can perfectly control the power of magma, and only when forging those high-end, powerful, and special weapons and equipment can they use the big furnace at the bottom.

There is no elevator from the second floor of the Stone Castle to the first floor, but stone steps carved into the mountain wall.

There are no guardrails or safety protection.

On one side is a steep mountain rock wall;

On the other side is a magma lake with rolling heat waves.

It takes a lot of courage to walk from this place to the bottom of the stone fortress. If you make a mistake, you will fall into the lava lake and be burned to ashes.

Reina's heart moved slightly.

Isn't this a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity? !

As long as she steps forward and finds an opportunity to push the other party hard, making him lose balance and fall into the lava, wouldn't the threat of the 4th-level warrior be resolved?

If the other party has been distorted by the power of the evil god, it would be a relief to purify him with pure flames and bright light.

Reina held her breath and quickened her pace, carefully approaching Bron Freeman step by step.

Just as she stretched out her hands and was ready to push the other party down the stone steps, she heard the other party's urgent reminder in a low voice:

"Don't do it!"     "Little girl, don't show up, you may be discovered by the guards!"

"I am awake, and you look like you should be too!"

"Come with me, I'll take you to a safe enough place!"

Reina was shocked.

The other party is not low in vigilance!

Instead, he pretended to be unaware in order to bring her here smoothly!

Is Bron Freeman, who looked so fanatical and pious in the Realm of Truth, awake? !

He was not contaminated by the void power of the "Supreme Truth"?

...

After receiving Bron's reminder, Reina naturally gave up the idea she had just had.

It is possible to push an unprepared level 4 warrior into the magma lake, but if the opponent is already prepared, it is better to give up this idea as soon as possible.

If they really have to fight head-on in this dangerous place, Reina will be the one at a disadvantage.

The gap between level 4 and level 3 is not a joke.

The stealth is not good at frontal combat, so it may be difficult to die together.

What makes Reina even more curious is that since the opponent can claim to be awake, he must have his support.

They are protected by the god of knowledge, Nowen, and have not been brainwashed in the rebirth ceremony of the messenger.

What does Bron Freeman rely on?

Following closely behind Braum, the closer we got to the bottom of the stone fortress, the more intense the heat waves became.

The surface of the lava lake was even hot enough to cause harm to humans;

According to the theory of elements, the concentration and activity of the fire element here were extremely high, similar to the legendary elemental plane, and it was already unsuitable for mortals to stay for a long time.

Reina could see that she had two negative states, [Extreme Heat], added to her status.

It was no exaggeration to say that if humans stayed in this place for too long, they would be roasted alive like chickens in an oven.

Fortunately, the rebirth ceremony of the Church of the Supreme Truth forcibly changed Reina's race from human to dwarf, and inherited certain racial characteristics of fire resistance and high temperature tolerance from the dwarves, which allowed Reina to continue to maintain her [Stealth] state.

Otherwise, when she was burned by the heat wave, the shadow energy would definitely dissipate out of control.

Reina followed Braun into a spacious forging room at the bottom of the magnificent furnace. During the period, she was checked by three dwarf guards. Thanks to Braun Freeman's help in covering, she was not exposed.

Reina sensitively noticed that the other party's tense mental state suddenly relaxed after entering the forging room and pushing the stone door tightly.

"Huh--"

"Little girl, come out!"

"This place is private enough, without the cultists' eyes, and is one of the few safe places in the stone fortress."

Bron Freeman seemed to be talking to the air, but the place where his eyes were roughly looking was exactly where Rena was in stealth mode.

He had indeed long realized that there was a stealth person following behind him.

Shadow energy surged quietly.

Rena showed up.
