Global Evolution: I transplanted the heart of the Supreme God.

Chapter 1036 Departure! Crimson Fortress!
"Dio, there's no time to waste."

A cold, stern voice rang out from the mouth of a tall, thin man draped in a desert cloak; he was Marshal Jared, the Desert Wind.

Marshal Jarid looked towards Zatuk City with some worry and said in a deep voice, "Now that Zatuk City has lost me, as well as three city defense generals including Hassam, its strength has been weakened. If the Demon Lord disregards everything and personally leads his trusted elite demons to attack the city walls, even with the restraint of the ancient magic array, the outcome is hard to predict!"

Bai Pu said calmly, "Don't worry, Marshal Jared. The Demon Lord's premise for attacking at all costs is that he knows you and your three capable generals have left the city... We obviously won't give him that chance! Our intelligence work has been done before he could!"

Marshal Jared put his cloak back on, covering his face.

Behind him stood three indigenous generals, also dressed in desert-style clothing and exuding a powerful aura. They were also completely covered up with hoods and cloaks, so much so that even their own mothers wouldn't recognize them.

Bai Pu waved his hand: "Let's go! Scarlet Fortress!"

……

Crimson Fortress is located on a wasteland.

The towering white bone watchtowers resembled the fangs of a giant beast piercing the sky.

The fortress is predominantly dark red, with demonic runes resembling veins crawling across its obsidian walls. Hanging from the fortress's battlements are the skulls of human adventurers.

In the skull's eyes, an incessant demonic fire burns, forever binding the souls of human adventurers within the skull fragments, subjecting them to the torment of the demonic flames.

This is the eternal punishment for those adventurers who dare to trespass on the Crimson Fortress.

Bai Pu, along with the two witches, fought their way to the gates of this lord-level dungeon. Following his orders, generals like Jared lay in ambush, and even Bai Pu's demon servants hid and did not appear.

Bang! Bang!

Suddenly, the gargoyle statues on the battlements exploded, revealing pairs of blood-red eyes!
Bai Pu had already obtained detailed information about the Crimson Fortress from the demon servant Aksu.

These creatures disguised as gargoyle statues are a type of demon—gargoyle sentinels. They usually disguise themselves as statues, but they come to life and sound an alarm when any human presence approaches!

The gargoyle spread its wings and circled above the Crimson Fortress, its sharp cries warning of the impending human attack!

However, upon realizing there were only three human adventurers, a mocking, almost human-like expression appeared in the gargoyle sentinel's blood-red eyes.

Then they swooped down!
Then, he tumbled and fell.

The Divine Tortoise Guards the Mountain!

Bai Pu deployed his domain, his Doomsday Spear striking one after another with tremendous force, instantly killing all the gargoyle sentinels.

However, the gargoyle sentinels' alarm had already awakened the demons guarding the Crimson Fortress.

Amidst the thunderous sound of war drums, squads of demons appeared atop the walls of the Crimson Fortress!

A towering Ridge Demon leader, his massive sword pointed at the three people below, Bai Pu, and issued a command in demonic language.

Although he couldn't understand the demon language, Bai Pu could still tell what the leader of the Riftscrew Demon warriors was saying through his mental perception:
"Greedy human adventurers, do you really think that Crimson Fortress will be undefended after Lord Salamak's departure? Since you covet the fortress's treasures, then pay with your lives! I, 'The Decapitator' Sefrax, the lord's trusted lieutenant, will surely imprison your souls within your skulls, turning them into decorations on the walls of Crimson Fortress!"

On the city wall, one after another, demon archers drew their bows and nocked their arrows.

On the bone towers to the left and right of Bai Pu and his companions, two teams of "skeleton archers" were also aiming at them.

Rustle, rustle, rustle!

The sound of arrows burning with bone fire piercing the air rang out. "Little White, which side should we attack first?" Wu Qingyun asked.

"We're feigning an attack now, showing enough threat without quickly breaching the fortress. Only in this way can we most likely lure the demon lord Salamak back to reinforce us!"

Bai Pu said in a deep voice, "Tear down the two bone towers behind us first!"

Immediately, Wu Qingyun and Wu Mingyue rushed towards one of the bone towers, while Bai Pu rushed towards the other.

The three of them dodged all the arrows along the way with their agility.

Whether it's the Great Witch's "Wave-Treading Steps," the Lesser Witch's "Blood-Dissolving Sticky Silk," or Bai Pu's "Red Lotus Mystery Steps," they are all seventh- or sixth-grade skills with extremely fast burst speeds.

The demon lieutenant Severax on the city wall frowned slightly upon seeing the three men's agility and skills.

The two witches quickly rushed to the foot of the bone tower. The greater witch used her reverse-generation true energy shield on the lesser witch and then added a scale water shield.

Wrapped in a double shield, the little witch raised her hand and shot out a dark red spider silk, which stuck to the top of the bone tower. With a pull and a retraction of the silk, her tall and slender body soared into the sky, defying the skeletal archer's arrows, and leaped onto the top of the tower.

With its twin blades unfolded, the Hunter's Guide to Speed ​​increased dramatically, each strike aimed directly at the opponent's weak points and vital areas!

Meanwhile, the high shaman beneath the bone tower was not idle either. He cast the True Water Transformation Spell, and a transformed swordfish swam up the tower to assist the low shaman's attack, essentially a finishing blow.

In just thirty seconds, the two wizards worked together to clear out the demon archers in a bone tower, revealing the initial power of the dual-hero class.

Bai Pu also cleaned up another bone tower!
The three of them gracefully descended from the bone tower and continued their journey towards the Crimson Fortress.

The junior witch pulled out a blue crossbow and fired at the demon Dordor on the city wall. The senior witch, on the other hand, cast a True Water Transformation spell from a distance, using magic to precisely kill the skeletal archers on the city wall.

Bai Pu, shrouded in a shield of the Four Symbols, stood in front of the great and small shamans. He wielded his spear, using only his physical strength to deflect the incoming bone and fire arrows.

"Hmph, you think you can attack Crimson Fortress with just three people... Riftspike, Bone Spike Shot!"

"The demon lieutenant, Severax, shouted."

Beside him, a group of Riftspikes simultaneously broke off bone spikes from their backs and hurled them at Bai Pu and his two companions.

This bone spike was powerful and heavy, enough to pierce right through an elite Zatuk spearman.

Bai Pu's expression remained unchanged, but his spear stance suddenly changed, becoming like a towering mountain peak, unshakeable.

The Four Secrets of the Heavenly Dragon - Guarding Like a Mountain!

Dangdang!
One by one, the bone spikes were knocked away, carrying powerful kinetic energy. Some soared into the sky, some pierced the ground, and some bounced back onto the walls of the Crimson Fortress, embedding themselves deeply into the walls!
"These human adventurers are very strong; they are definitely not nobody! But their faces are unfamiliar. Could they have come from traveling in other towns?"

The demon lieutenant, Severax, was very cautious. Instead of leading his men out of the city to meet the enemy, he ordered the gates to be kept closed and focused on firing down.

"Xiaobai, we're not good at ranged attacks, so we're not putting enough pressure on you," Wu Qingyun whispered.

"It's alright, the big one will be here soon!"

Bai Pu's Four Symbols Shield suddenly compressed and condensed on the tip of his spear.

He swung his spear at the gates of the Crimson Fortress.
