Hell has invaded, but my Hextech is invincible!

Within the blood mist.

With a quick glance, Hextech's Heartsteel stack jumped from 3 to 6.

【Your Steel, My Heart】Three times the efficiency, stacking steel at a speed far exceeding expectations.

And working with cutting-edge inventors is a perfect match, like fish in water.

Now that one has just been killed, the second hellhound's red star is about to ripen.

The remaining hellhounds were not frightened by the blood, but rather stimulated by it, and pounced wildly, their fangs gleaming coldly.

Hextech kicked hard, sending a hound crashing into the steel wall like a cannonball. The wall instantly caved in and deformed. He then grabbed another hound and smashed it into the ground, cracking it.

boom!

The loud noise made the passageway vibrate.

The third hound circled around to his side, its head glowing red, and opened its mouth to bite.

laugh--

A flash of cold light slashed past, and a head flew into the air, blood gushing from the neck.

Inessa had already arrived: "Leave the right flank to me, Hextech!"

Hextech didn't bother to admire her somewhat battle-worn, dashing demeanor, and quickly waved his hand in refusal: "No! You're injured, get out of the way!"

Seemingly realizing his tone had been too harsh, he quickly added, "You're a girl!"

"Let me protect you!"

What a joke! I finally get to focus on building up my Steel Heart, how can I let my teammates steal my kill?

Inessa was startled.

girl……

A servant of God, a devout nun, a chosen one of God, she has always been the one who protects all living beings.

No one ever offered to protect her.

Long-buried thoughts surged up, and she trembled, almost staggering to the ground.

Hex caught her, shoved her to a safe corner, turned and swept his leg across the head of the hound coming towards him.

Boom!

The skull exploded with a bang, and the shockwave sent debris flying everywhere.

Another layer of steel heart enters the tent.

Hextech's lips curled up, his smile becoming increasingly uncontrollable, a mixture of ferocity and pleasure on his face.

I'm so happy, so incredibly happy.

Although these monsters do not grant you gold or experience.

But it can stack steel!

What could be more satisfying than racking up steel by killing mobs in a row?

Hell, that's amazing.

Hextech kicked a hellhound over before its steel was even red-hot, then took a step back and punched another beast hard in the head.

clang!

clang!

The resounding cracks that pierced the soul were heavenly music to Hextech, but deadly death knells to monsters.

The power of each of his punches far exceeded the limits that a human of this size should have.

Although these hellhounds are the lowest-ranking monsters in hell, once they descend to the human world, a single one can easily kill more than a dozen unarmed ordinary people.

Even when facing firearms, it can withstand more than a dozen bullets, and before dying, it can even take two or three fully armed soldiers down with it. But it is the most ordinary creature in hell, occupying an ecological niche similar to cockroaches and flies in the human world.

The number is countless.

Hell only needs to release all the hellhounds into the human world to destroy humanity.

They have already hunted dozens of humans on the ground. In their eyes, those humans are extremely fragile; their bones can be broken with a single bite and their bodies can be torn in two.

The ground was occupied by other higher-level monsters, and as the lowest of the food chain, the hellhounds had no choice but to dive into the sewers to find decaying matter.

Unexpectedly, I encountered two living people.

This was supposed to be a very easy and enjoyable hunt.

But their simple minds couldn't understand why this person could smash their skulls with a single punch.

Both their physical bodies and their strength are comparable to the demons they usually encounter.

In just two minutes, all ten hellhounds lay on the ground, mutilated, some even hanging from the entrance of the passage.

Hex wiped the blood and foam from his face, looked at the Heartsteel stack that had reached 33 layers, and couldn't help but laugh.

Each layer of Heart Steel increases health by 12 to 13 points, and the extra 30 layers directly add nearly 400 points of health to him.

His total health is now close to four thousand, and his punch after stacking steel is about to break five hundred in attack power.

These hellhounds are much stronger than ordinary people, but their individual life points are only two or three hundred, so they can't even withstand a single punch.

He turned his head and saw Inessa looking at him with a very complicated expression.

"What's wrong?" Hex asked.

Inessa gently shook her head. "I was just wondering, are you really not a paladin?"

"Whether it's physique, strength, or vitality."

"You are like a warrior who has received the flesh and blood of Jesus Christ."

"Or is your power derived from an unknown sacred talisman?"

Hex gave a dry laugh.

To be honest, his current playstyle is indeed leaning a bit towards that of a Paladin.

Paladins are extraordinary warriors who inherit holy power. On the battlefield, a single paladin can withstand one or even several ordinary demons. The strongest chapter champions can even slay demons with true names. They are humanity's most important line of defense besides the clergy.

Hex said, "I have never received any holy ordination."

"He has not undergone paladin transformation surgery either."

"I probably had a big appetite since I was little, and my neighbors all called me a big eater."

"I'm just an ordinary poor person from downtown Manchester."

Hex patted his belly.

He could talk to the United Front about being the orphan of the Duke of Antioch, but he didn't want to get involved with the Church, since those were taboo topics for the Church.

The church invaded by hell is full of sensitive spots; once triggered, it is easy to be burned at the stake.

"Hextech, are you really just an ordinary civilian from the lower city?" Inessa asked, unconvinced. "Where is your family?"

"Of course," Hex replied casually.

"However, I don't remember anything from before."

"After waking up, I was in Frankenstein's laboratory. After escaping, I was hunted down by the United Front."

"We had no choice but to cooperate with them in order to destroy the six altars."

"Really? Then you really are a great person," Inessa said softly.

Hextech's lips twitched.

He felt somewhat embarrassed by the praise from this meticulous and aloof nun.

"Alright, we should go." Hextech composed himself.

"We can't stay in this shelter any longer."

"Hellhounds will follow the scent of their companions and come here once they discover a high-value target."

"Next time, it won't be ten, but fifty or a hundred."

He's a streamer who focuses on clearing stages and providing strategy guides, so he probably only remembers the gist of the story.

He knew the stats and characteristics of most of the small and large monsters like the back of his hand.

The Hellhounds don't deal much damage, but what's most annoying is that they keep multiplying as you kill them. Every time you kill one batch, another batch spawns from the void, driving you crazy.

Inessa was also puzzled as to why Hex knew more about Hell than she, a clergyman, did.

But she didn't ask any more questions, only saying softly, "I understand, Hex."

"Let's leave here first."
