This is the text of the Delaney Kingdom.

Leonard Churchill quickly scanned the contents of the notes.

Not only did he read the translated content from the Enlightenment Display, but he also noted down the original text.

The content of the manuscript was all about Mage Rolan’s research on demons and it could be roughly divided into several parts: “Complete Collection of Known Demons”, “Research on the Low-Level Demon Language”, “Demon

Totems”…

Due to his years spent on the frontier, the mage had conducted in-depth studies on the culture and habits of demons.

The content was far more detailed than what the Enlightenment Display had shown.

It was practically a demon encyclopedia.

Due to time constraints, Leonard skimmed quickly through the notes.

He specifically selected some of the major points to read.

Mainly focusing on monsters, items like “Potions to Prevent Spider Web Stickiness”, “Treatment for Burns Caused by Demonic Flames”, “Methods to Neutralize Common Demon Toxins”…

The latter parts included battles with demons, so the more practical skills he understood, the better he could defend himself.

Hours later.

Leonard closed the manuscript, exhaled a long breath, and couldn’t help but exclaim: “This manuscript is truly helpful.”

From his previous ignorance about demons, he now had a clear understanding of the habits and weaknesses of dozens of demons.

Leonard felt that this information was even more useful than any equipment.

Who would have thought that the previously thought invincible Giant Demon has a segment of its tailbone that is weaker than its eyeballs?

Dark Elves have the ability to disperse into elements and teleport, but if you place a needle in their collarbone, they become unable to disperse…

The claws of spider demons are deadlier weak points than any other parts…

And many more.

Humanity consists of a single race, but demons are diverse and peculiar.

If Leonard had not gone through this manuscript, he would’ve had to risk his life to probe the various kinds of demons he might meet.

A moment’s inattention might lead to a major disadvantage against those peculiar abilities.

Now, his confidence had greatly improved.

In fact, if Leonard had known these habits and weaknesses of demons in advance, even without a scalpel, he would have means to kill the Catastrophe-level demons he had encountered before.

Leonard packed up the manuscript and checked the time.

More than five hours had passed.

He glanced at the Meteor Eagle Fortress. Only a few traces of battle were left inside.

This place was close to the Wailing Abyss, making it the most populated by monsters.

Earlier, the fortress soldiers were able to repel a few waves of attacks thanks to the terrain of the cliff.

But as time passed, the number of demons increased and the number of humans decreased. The fall of the fortress was inevitable.

Considering the time, the Demon Legion must be far away from their lair by

now.

Leonard did not linger on the cliff and quietly descended.

Not long after, he arrived at the edge of the Abyssal Rift.

Looking at the seemingly bottomless cliff before him, Leonard threw a few stones to test it.

No echo was heard.

Fortunately, this rift was just a typical seismic fissure, and there was no abnormal gravity.

Leonard jumped down himself to test it. After climbing a few hundred meters on the rock wall, he did not encounter any strange areas.

In his view, this was the best terrain advantage for escaping from demon pursuit.

Now that he was heading to the demon’s lair, he first had to secure an exit. Also, considering it was the demon’s lair, Leonard figured there would be various types of sentries, so it was best to avoid the usual routes.

There wasn’t much difference for a werewolf to move on flat ground or on a rock wall.

After testing it out, Leonard moved on, choosing to climb along the cliff rather than the road surface.

“Desolate Spire” was roughly thirty kilometers northeast of the fortress, right next to the rift.

He had seen a place marked with a stone tower on the military map he had seen earlier.

Thus, Leonard travelled along the cliff.

Using a compass, he successfully avoided areas heavy with demonic air.

Shortly after, he arrived in an area enveloped in cold fog.

He checked the compass.

There were no demonic fluctuations either.

Only then did he climb up from the cliff onto the ground.

He looked ahead to see a group of stone towers not far away.

This was once a burial ground for deceased soldiers.

The stone towers were their tombstones.

The old mage did not specify the exact coordinates of the entrance to the demon’s lair, but Leonard figured that since it was a secret passage, it would not be easy to find.

However, to accommodate the large numbers of demons coming from the north side of the rift, the place must be quite large.

He did not see any bridges or other structures in the abyss, possibly because of teleportation circles or other magical passages.

Therefore, he could only try his luck in the surrounding area.

He draped the Relic Cloak over himself, and like a ghost, cautiously entered the White Tower Forest to patiently search the area.

Before long, as he watched the Red-eyed Bats hanging on the key crossroads in the White Tower Forest.

He was certain that the passage must be somewhere nearby.

The bats couldn’t detect him.

Leonard continued to navigate through the White Tower Forest.

Suddenly, an invisible “white cloth” drifted through the air.

According to the Enlightenment Display, it was anjGhost contaminated by demonic air]?

“A ghost?”

This was Leonard’s first encounter with a spirit-type monster.

It didn’t seem threatening.

Could it potentially be dispelled with a single Daylight Bomb?

But upon seeing the prefix of the ghost, Leonard immediately realized that this must be a scout for the demons.

Superior Demons are not inferior to humans in intelligence, and they must have realized that some stealth techniques can elude the surveillance of

Red-eyed Bats.

Ghost-type monsters perceive things not through their eyes but at a spiritual level.

This complements the shortcomings in the surveillance methods of the bat

scouts..
