The entrance to the ancient tomb was already under the control of the ruins exploration team. In order to prevent grave robbers from forcing their way in, the ruins exploration team deliberately set up two rows of strong sentry posts on the left and right sides of the entrance.
At this time, there were a few trainers in uniform guarding the entrance and the sentry posts. They were very disciplined, and the elves in their hands were almost all large wolfhounds and Haerugas. They were meticulously carrying out the task of guarding the entrance.
When everyone who entered the ruins walked past the two rows of sentry posts at the entrance, they felt as if they had entered a heavily guarded military camp.
Kaede Sato also had the same feeling, so he immediately asked Mina about the origins of these people through telepathy. Sure enough, as he expected, these people guarding the entrance to the ruins were all from the Alliance Army, belonging to the Evil Army.
Everyone needed to show proof of identity in order to enter the tomb. Not only that, this proof of identity had to be issued by someone of high status in the camp. According to Mina, only Kanzaki, Shirona, and a certain high-ranking Alliance official who was temporarily stationed at the camp could issue such a proof of identity.
Naturally, Kaede Sato and Mina had things like identification. Kaede Sato's identification was personally given by Kanzaki, and it was a small thing similar to a nameplate.
As for Gray, he also had an identification in his hand, which was given to him by Shirona before she left.
However, this identification was only temporary, unlike the permanent identification that Mina and Kaede Sato had. It could only be used a limited number of times, and they could only enter the ruins twice at most.
With Mina, Shirona's in-name disciple, leading the way, Kaede Sato and the others smoothly passed through the heavy blockade at the entrance and arrived at the entrance of the tomb.
Perhaps to prevent bad things from coming out of the tomb, the entrance of the tomb was covered with all kinds of talismans with mysterious words drawn on them. There was even a beautiful stone statue of Ratina placed at the entrance.
"Yo, it's getting dark. Mina, you little girl, how dare you explore the tomb at this time, and in a situation where you're not accompanied by Hylona-sama. What are you up to?"
At this time, one of the middle-aged guards on duty at the entrance was obviously an acquaintance of Mina. After seeing Mina, he immediately greeted her with a smile and teased her.
At the same time, he gestured with his hand behind his back. A few young guards behind him intentionally or unintentionally spread out with the little elves, glaring at Kaede Sato and Gray, the two strangers who had just appeared.
The middle-aged guard was very strong, possessing the strength of a peak Quasi-Heavenly King. This was what Kaede Sato could tell from the Level 69 Gangster Crocodile beside the middle-aged guard through the system's detection ability.
The few young guards behind the middle-aged guard, who were around 20 years old, were not weak either. Each of them had the strength of a peak elite, and a few of them had even entered the Quasi-Heavenly King Stage.
"It's none of your business. Hurry up and open the door. I'm in a hurry."
Mina usually hated it when people called her cowardly, so when she heard the young guard's words, she immediately exploded in anger.
Unfortunately, she was only 12 years old now, and her body had not yet grown up. In addition, she was relatively short. At this time, her appearance of baring her fangs and brandishing her claws was not only not fierce, but also somewhat cute.
"Hahaha ~ Okay, okay, show your identification first. This is the rule, you can't skip it."
When the middle-aged guard saw Mina's angry look, he immediately laughed, and then began to instruct a few young people around him to check the entry and exit certificates in the hands of Kaede Sato and the others.
Many trainers and little elves were watching from the two rows of sentry posts. Even Gray, the proud dragon, had to obediently take out his temporary identification card and accept the inspection.
"Remember, come out before 6: 30. Recently, the things inside have become more and more evil. Pay attention to safety, don't go into the forbidden area. Today, there are several exploration teams that haven't come out since morning. It's probably some guys who took the initiative to seek death."
While instructing his subordinates to check the entry and exit certificates, the smile on the middle-aged guard's face gradually disappeared, and then he warned Kaede Sato and the others.
"Don't worry, Uncle Nord, I have a powerful backer by my side. This is Mr. Zheping that I mentioned to you last time. With him, we can come out at any time, anywhere."
When Mina heard this, she immediately brought up the superpower of Kaede Sato, and then put on an expression that said "I don't need to be afraid at all" and said with a smile.
When the middle-aged guard named Nord heard Mina's words, he immediately turned his gaze to Kaede Sato, and there was even a hint of surprise in his eyes.
"So you're Mr. Zheping. My name is Nord, you can call me Old Nord. I'm the captain of the guards here, and I've often heard about you from Kinzai-sama and Hirola-sama. You're really young and promising, I hope you'll take care of me in the coming days."
As the saying goes, those with great reputations were not just for show. Nord didn't dare to look down on Kaede Sato just because of Kaede Sato's young age. He immediately revealed a kind smile, and politely said to Kaede Sato.
As someone who came from the Alliance Army, he was very clear about the importance of an outstanding superpower user in a team. In the army, they were like a stabilizing force, and every soldier would feel a sense of security because of them.
The ruins that the Alliance had sent them to guard were simply too strange. Although the Evil Army was very good at dealing with the Specter Fairies in the ruins, the specialty of the Specter Fairies was that they came and went like ghosts, and it was impossible to guard against them.
They were only made of flesh and blood, not robots. They couldn't maintain their vigilance at all times, and once they let their guard down, they could easily fall into danger.
During this period of time, they had been stationed here for a long time, and they already knew how dangerous the ruins in front of them were.
From time to time, Specter Fairies would come out of the ruins. These Specter Fairies seemed to have lost control of some kind of power, and they couldn't communicate at all. As soon as they saw each other, they would start fighting.
Especially at night, the Specter Fairies living in the ruins would become abnormally active. These things were much harder to deal with than the Clay Soldiers, Clay Giants, and Libra Dolls. Currently, the Specter Fairies didn't even dare to sleep at night.
Now that Kaede Sato had arrived, they could finally have a good night's sleep.
Nord knew very well that Kaede Sato would definitely be sent by Kanzaki to assist them in defense.
He had already heard from Kanzaki and Shirona about Kaede Sato's abilities. Kaede Sato was a powerful Super who could use his mental power to monitor his surroundings while meditating at night. With him around, no matter what happened in the camp, it would be difficult to hide from him.
In other words, wherever there was a crisis, Kaede Sato would be able to detect it immediately and quickly rescue them. They would no longer have to worry about their teammates not being able to help them quickly enough and fall into danger.
"Not at all, not at all. I should be the one saying that. The heavy responsibility of protecting the camp will still fall on your shoulders. I'm just a temporary worker."
When Kaede Sato heard Nord say this, he immediately realized that this person in front of him was the person he would be cooperating with for the next five days, so he replied politely.
