Neuss and others moved along the secluded streets. There were almost no pedestrians on the road. Their route had been blocked in advance. Neuss's forces were everywhere in the outer wall. It wasn't an exaggeration to say that he could cover the sky with one hand.
After arriving at the golden fortress, Neuss let his confidant sound the signal flare in advance. A yellow smoke bomb immediately rose from the fortress. When the group arrived, the gate of the fortress was already opened.
They were in the wilderness outside the golden fortress. There were weeds and ferocious beasts everywhere.
Neuss and others didn't need to worry about the low-level mutant beasts. It didn't take long for them to arrive in front of the giant wall. Two teams of Holy Church's knights were standing at the hunter's passage under the giant wall. They saluted as Dean, Neuss and others approached them. Then they opened the passage for hunters.
Dean put away his wings and went into the passage as he saw that they were on his side.
Neuss, Barton and the others jumped off their Wolf Horses and led their own Wolf Horses into the forest.
He strolled through the dark passage, and when he came out again, he was already outside the giant wall. The smell in the air seemed to be particularly different, with a fresh and bloody murderous aura.
"Master, we have a stronghold in area no. 9. Do you want to stay there for a while?" Neuss asked Dean.
Dean nodded: "Yes, you lead the way."
Neuss sat on the wolf horse and took the lead.
Barton and a group of confidants followed closely behind. Dean extended his magic wings and flew at low altitude to follow behind.
They met two undeads wandering near the giant wall. Neuss killed them. Half an hour later they arrived at area no. 9. The place had been cleaned up. There were corpses lying on the streets. Most of them were undeads. Most of them had their heads cut off or their foreheads pierced by sharp objects. There were also some black monster corpses. They had been dead for a long time. Their flesh and blood were rotting and exuded a disgusting smell.
The stronghold Neuss was talking about was a relatively well-preserved large building. It seemed to be a company building from the olden era. A lot of the glass on the building was broken and the rest was covered in dust, but it still reflected dazzling light under the sunlight.
Hundreds of corpses were piled up outside the building. They had long since decomposed into white bones. From the position and posture of the corpses, it seemed that they were employees who had rushed out of the building.
Whoosh!
A figure suddenly jumped down from a broken window on the fourth floor of the building and landed in front of Neuss. It was a black-clothed young man. He knelt on one knee and said respectfully, "Greetings, Sir Black Crow!"
Black Crow was another name of Neuss in the dark church. It was said that the Black Crow was a bird that lived on the shoulder of the devil king. Whenever the devil king woke up, the Black Crow would patrol the world and bring disaster and pain to the world.
Neuss said indifferently: "Is anyone coming to the 9th region?"
"Sir, twenty-four days ago, a hunting group passed by here, but they didn't stop. They must have passed by here on a mission," the black-clothed young man said respectfully.
Neuss nodded: "Get ready. We are going to stay here. Make a big room first."
"Yes, Sir." The black-clothed young man nodded respectfully.
At this time, three shadows flashed and appeared at the entrance of the building. They saw Neuss and others led by the black-clothed young man. They immediately came forward and saluted. They were all dressed in the same uniform, like a special army.
Dean was surprised as he saw the strength of these people. They turned out to be pioneers. Such a person could be regarded as a first-class master in the giant wall. But unexpectedly they were stationed in the 9th region which had been cleared out by the hunters?
A golden light flashed in his eyes. Soon, the situation in the building appeared in his eyes. He looked at Neuss with a hint of admiration.
"Master, the 9th region is one of our strongholds outside the giant wall." Neuss deliberately slowed down his pace as he followed Dean: "I heard you mention that there are new shelters outside the giant wall. After you left I was worried that there would be changes inside the giant wall. So I secretly built several shelters outside the giant wall. If we can't stay inside the giant wall then we can stay here."
"Smart." Dudian smiled.
Neuss smiled, "It was your idea, Young Master."
The youth in black who was leading the way and the three who bowed their heads at the door couldn't help but look at Neuss. They didn't know Dean but they were saved by Neuss. They knew how much energy Neuss had. They didn't expect him to be so humble.
"Please." The black-clothed young man moved a collapsed slab. There was a door behind the door. There was a dark staircase behind the door.
Dean wasn't surprised. He had seen that the building had been transformed into an underground base by Neuss. It was enough to bear the name 'shelter'. The underground base was fully equipped. There were luxurious living and resting areas. There were working areas full of various instruments. There were also arsenals full of explosives and firearms.
The firearms here were not much different from those of the olden era. They both used bullets with metal casings. The only difference was probably the difference in accuracy and power. However, they could already be considered pistols in name and in reality!
The black-clothed young man wanted to take Dean and Neuss to the largest room in the basement. But Dean waved his hand to dismiss him. He turned to Neuss: "Let the others rest first. We're going to the giant wall to see how the collection of uranium crystals is going."
"Yes, master." Neuss nodded respectfully.
Dean and Neuss returned to the giant wall after settling down Barton and other confidants. They didn't ride the wolf horse this time. Neuss was barely able to keep up with Dean's speed.
Dean felt that he should improve the strength of Barton and others after seeing Neuss's strength. Although he had left a lot of resources but they were ordinary resources. Neuss, Sergei and others were stuck at the peak level of the inner wilderness. They were at the same level as Dragon Mother and Wing King. Although they had a lot of magic marks to choose from and a huge amount of God's marrows they had to strengthen their magic marks if they wanted to become a master.
The number of legendary magic marks was scarce. It was extremely difficult to find five of the same legendary magic marks to strengthen. So Neuss and Sergei were stuck at this step even though they had reached the peak of the inner wilderness.
Both of them quickly returned to the inner wall. They crossed the outer wall area and returned to the secret stronghold in the inner wall area.
"Is there a situation?" After entering the secret stronghold, Neuss asked the contact with a dignified expression. This stronghold was very simple, but it was equipped with a telegraph. Since Dudian brought electricity to thousands of households, the industrial development of Silvia had been rapid. Edward was riding the wave of industrial revolution. Under the indoctrination of Dudian, he quickly climbed to the top of the wave.
"Sir, we just received two telegrams saying that the uranium crystals have been bought and are on the way." A veiled young woman was stationed in the secret stronghold. Her voice was beautiful and her fingers were slender. She looked very flexible.
Neuss nodded: "Urge them to get it within half an hour at all costs. Even if you have to use force!"
"Yes, elder." The woman looked at Dean. She felt that he was a big shot. She didn't dare to ask but quickly typed out the telegram.
"Master, please sit down." Neuss didn't let Dean stand. He immediately brought a chair.
Dean didn't modestly sit down and quietly waited.
Ten minutes later, two groups of men in black sneaked over. After exchanging a secret signal outside the secret base, they came in and took out two bags of uranium ore the size of a head.
The uranium ore looked like a piece of green stone. Dean frowned but he remembered that Neuss had refining equipment in the shelter outside the giant wall. He put away the two pieces of uranium ore.
It didn't take long for several groups of people to arrive. They brought different amounts of uranium ore and refined uranium crystals.
Dudian saw that the amount was enough, so he immediately left. He didn't wait for the follow-up people.
The sky was getting dark by the time he returned to the stronghold in the 9th region. It was autumn so the sun would set at around five o 'clock.
Time was of the essence. Dean brought the uranium ore and crushed uranium crystals to the second layer of the base. He ground the uranium ore, soaked it, and found a sharp knife to quickly separate the uranium from the surface.
As for the uranium crystals that had already been extracted, he ground them into sand. Then, he found a tough piece of animal skin and rolled it up. The animal skin was rolled into a ring that was just big enough to fit around his neck.
Dean collected enough uranium to fill the animal skin ring. He gave the rest of the uranium ore to Neuss and put it in his backpack.
Dean took a deep breath as he looked at the rough animal skin ring. He asked Neuss to bring a mirror. He sat in front of the mirror and took out a few scalpels to anesthetize his neck.
He used the scalpels to cut the surface of his neck after he lost consciousness. His pupils were golden so he could clearly see the situation inside his neck.
The scalpels moved quickly as he cut the epidermis. He didn't hurt the blood vessels. After the epidermis peeled off, the flesh and the emerald uranium ring were exposed.
The green uranium looked like it was brimming with life, but in reality, it was fatal. The flesh around the uranium ring was already necrotic, and the capillaries further away had turned green as if they had been infected by radiation.
Dean took a deep breath as he stretched out the Splitter's Blade from his back. He slowly moved to the front of the uranium ring and gently cut it.
The sharp blade cut through iron as if it was mud. The hard uranium ring was easily cut through without a single fragment.
Dean's eyes were dignified. He held the ring with both hands and quickly pulled it out. Then he quickly grabbed the needle and thread that had already been prepared. He lifted the surface of the skin and sutured the wound. Then he tied the previously made ring around his neck. All of these actions were done in one go. It was done in just one minute.
"Young, young master, what is this?" Neuss was shocked as he watched Dean finish the operation alone. He didn't expect Dean to wear such a thing on his neck. It was hard to imagine what he had experienced before. He knew that Dean was as calm as ever when he took out the uranium ring.
"Find a monster and put this thing on it. Look for a strong monster that likes to forage." Dean said as he pointed to the severed uranium ring on the ground.
Neuss was puzzled: "Young master, why did you put this thing on yourself? The uranium crystal doesn't seem to be good for the body. Shouldn't you wear it?"
"It can restrain the Aragami factor in my body." Dean got up and walked out of the room. Although he was wearing the ring made from animal skin around his neck, the effect was no different from the one he wore before. After all, the Aragami's factor was afraid of the radioactive radiation of uranium, so it was not affected by the skin. The reason why Boro embedded the uranium ring in the flesh of his neck was that he was worried that the uranium ring would be easily broken. Or he wanted to hide the thing inside the uranium ring.
Dean saw that Neuss had picked up the uranium ring. He turned around and waved his hand. Neuss picked up the uranium ring and used his x-ray vision to scan it.
His eyes flashed, and he took the broken uranium ring to the metal foil where he had previously ground the uranium crystal. Then, he used a metal hammer to crush it.
Soon, a metal chip was exposed from the broken uranium ring. It was about one centimeter square.
Dean was relieved to see this thing. It seemed that the problem was indeed with the uranium ring.
He crushed the other half of the uranium ring but there was nothing inside.
Dean frowned. This shouldn't be the case!
If the metal chip was a positioning device then what was the thing that Scarlet Moon implanted in him? Did she deliberately blackmail him?
He looked down at his body. He used his x-ray vision to scan his body from head to toe. However, there was no metal in his body. There was only a part of the mutated flesh that was infected by the Aragami's flesh.
He thought for a moment but still couldn't think of a clue. He simply gave the metal chip to Neuss: "This is a positioning device. Find a monster and install it."
Neuss suddenly understood and immediately took the metal chip.
Dean went back to the first floor of the base and asked Barton to call everyone to prepare for departure.
"Master, it's dark. Should we continue?" Barton asked in puzzlement.
Dean nodded: "Don't worry about the dark in this area."
Barton thought that Dean was right. He could wander around here with his strength. Moreover, Dean was much stronger than him.
