The weapons I forge are absolutely flawless.

Everyone turned around at once, and saw Anna walk into the tent.

"What are you doing following me around like this?" Viner asked, her tone tinged with reproach.

"I'm not here to cause trouble." Anna shook her finger, her expression turning serious. "Do you think repairing the seal is as simple as just talking?"

"We still don't know the extent to which the seal on the dungeon has been damaged, or how many resources will be needed to repair it. If you don't bring me along, who will provide these supplies?"

“As for security,” Anna said, taking an exquisite longbow from her ring and a smug smile playing on her lips, “you haven’t forgotten about this, have you?”

That was the equipment that Vener had made for her before she left—the Shudrom Bow.

The silver and blue bow gleamed softly in the moonlight, as if it had become one with Anna's aura, clearly indicating that she had completely gained the bow's approval.

Wiener looked at the Shudrom bow and shook his head helplessly: "It seems you're determined to come along."

"I can't just hide in the back forever, can I?" Anna raised her eyebrows, as if to say, "Don't even think about leaving me behind this time."

Seeing that the group had finished their discussion, Leia said, "In that case, this task will be assigned to the four of you."

"Hanniman will complete the setup of the directional teleportation array to the Silver Wolf House tonight. Gerald has informed the Holy Knights to prepare for the retake of the academy starting early tomorrow morning."

Rhea's gaze swept over everyone present, her voice tinged with solemnity, "This operation concerns the survival of the academy and the future of the entire continent of Fodor. Please proceed with extreme caution."

She paused briefly, then waved decisively.

"Disband!"

-----------------

"Schrommel: "

Weapon type: Bow

Weapon Grade: A

Usage restrictions: Archery B, Strength A

characteristic:

The Bow of the Soul: A bow that should only be drawn by a strongman with a pure heart. But after Wiener's adaptation and adjustments, even a cunning merchant can achieve miracles with great force.

Stormbow: The Shudrom Bow can condense arrows using only the power of wind, without the need for physical arrows. Even in strong winds, it will not be affected in any way, but will instead increase in power.

Windrunner's Blessing: When using the Shudram Bow, the wielder gains increased movement speed and can fire accurately while jumping or running, unaffected by inertia.

The Unfailing Accuracy Shudrom Bow: When the Shudrom Bow's energy reaches its limit, it can summon the Stormbringer, the Demon King. The Stormbringer possesses powerful melee and ranged attack capabilities and provides the user with all-around protection. It exists for thirty minutes, with a one-day cooldown.

Chapter 616 Division of Labor

"The Holy Knights will launch their attack on the academy in an hour. You need to use this time to find out about the dungeon seal and make preparations." Rhea gave the four her final instructions before they left.

"The fluctuations from repairing the seal cannot be concealed. The Holy Knights can only increase their siege efforts to alleviate the pressure on you."

"Don't worry, Lady Rhea, don't forget who's with us." Vena glanced at the holy ring on her hand.

"...Take care on your journey."

Rhea nodded, then gestured to Hanneman, indicating that he should activate the teleportation array.

The makeshift directional teleportation array quickly began to operate, with pale blue light flowing in the center of the array, as if a tranquil lake had been stirred.

The next moment, the figures of the group disappeared from the spot.

When it reappeared, it was already standing in front of the Silver Wolf Class's headquarters.

"Phew—this is my first time here." Anna looked around and couldn't help but exclaim.

She had visited the other three classes in the academy, but due to her status, she had never had the opportunity to approach the mysterious Silver Wolf class.

Even though she and Jessica were very close, they never broke this rule.

"Then why not take this opportunity to join the Silver Wolf Class?" Tissa's figure suddenly appeared.

"Sister Tilissa?! When did you arrive?" Anna's eyes widened in surprise.

“I’ve always been here,” Tilissa glanced at Vena, a meaningful smile playing on her lips. “You still haven’t answered my last question.”

“Of course I’d love to!” Anna exclaimed excitedly at first, but then quickly deflated. “But you know Jessica, she doesn’t give you any leeway at all.”

“What does it matter?” Tilisa shook her head slightly, her gaze shifting to the silver wolf badge in Venus’s hand, implying, “Don’t forget who has the silver wolf badge now.”

Even if Jessica were here, let alone not being here, the words of a graduating prefect are not as effective as those of a new prefect.

Anna immediately understood, turned her head and looked at Venus expectantly, eagerly awaiting the answer.

"We can discuss joining the class anytime, let's get down to business first!" Viner couldn't help but facepalm.

Seeing that Venus was showing signs of impatience, Anna stuck out her tongue and obediently followed behind.

Time was of the essence, so Viner didn't introduce the Silver Wolf Class facilities to Anna, but instead led everyone straight to the third floor.

Although the external buildings of the academic level were not as badly damaged as other parts of the college, the sight before one's eyes upon entering the third-floor area was disheartening.

Of the thirty-five sealing pillars that once stood here, eight have now collapsed, and most of the remaining pillars are cracked and teetering on the brink of collapse.

It gives people a feeling of not knowing where to start.

"Besides the two demons, Jun and Li, are there six other demons who have broken free of their seals?" Tissa quickly estimated the situation.

“Since the number of demons has decreased, can the sealing magic circle of the dungeon be simplified?” Risty immediately suggested. “Let’s ensure that the seal can function at a minimum level first, and then repair it slowly after we’ve cleared out the demons outside the dungeon.”

“It’s theoretically possible, but how do you plan to do it?” Tissa turned to look at Lisette.

"Give me a moment."

Without hesitation, Lisette quickly inspected the sealing pillars, selected a few with less damage as a base, and then took out paper and pen to sketch a simple draft.

"I plan to repair the critical sealing nodes of the sixth to eighth layers in a sequence of six, four, and six per layer. This will reduce the workload by half."

The sixth level has the most monsters and must be closely guarded. The sealed demons on the eighth level are the most dangerous and also require enhanced protection.

As for the seventh floor, it only needs a little reinforcement.

A hint of approval flashed in Tissa's eyes.

Although she has lost the ability to cast spells, her insight and experience remain sharp.

She carefully examined Lisette's sketch, and after confirming that there were no logical flaws, she slowly nodded: "It's worth a try."

“If that’s the case, how about reducing the number of demons further? There should still be demons that haven’t broken free of their seals, right?” Vena asked.

Previously, the academy didn't really have a good way to deal with these demons, otherwise there would have been no need to seal them away.

But now that Venus possesses both Escudida and Nietono-chana, she has the ability to destroy the demons.

“Our main objective for this trip is to get the dungeon seal working again.” Tissa shook her head slightly, disapproving of any further complications. “However, if it’s a demon in its Blood Soul state, we can take the opportunity to eliminate it.”

"Then let's get started quickly and not waste the time the academy headmaster bought for us."

Everyone took action immediately.

Lisette took the lead and walked towards a relatively intact sealing pillar. Her staff glowed faintly as she began to inject magic essence to reinforce it.

This is a crucial safeguard for everyone traveling to and from the underground city, and it is essential to ensure that they do not collapse in the short term.

Felix and Rikka helped clean up the completely collapsed stone pillars, gathering the scattered debris into designated locations.

Once they had collected them all, Anna simply put away all the precious trash.

It at least makes the surroundings look much cleaner.

Tilissa began calling out the names of the materials, and Anna quickly took out the corresponding material from her ring for each one she called out.

The precious magic crystals and rare ores were quickly sorted and piled up into small mountains.

At this moment, Lisette had also reinforced the teleportation pillars that would be used later and began processing the materials used to repair the seal.

"I will turn them into sealing stones that unfold on their own and replace the original seals. The entire unfolding process will take about five minutes," Lisette calmly explained the next steps of the plan.

"Each of us will be responsible for one location. We'll first repair the sealed nodes on the seventh level of the dungeon, then we'll all return here to deal with the nodes on the sixth level. As for the eighth level, we'll leave that for last."

The demons within the dungeon are unaware of the Silver Wolf Academy's passage leading directly into the depths of the dungeon.

At least until the first seal is replaced, everyone can remain in secrecy.

However, once the seal is broken, the resulting fluctuations will inevitably reveal their location, at which point they will have no choice but to confront them head-on.

“I’ll have Tilisa go with you?” Vina looked at Anna.

"I hope we don't have to use it." Anna didn't refuse.

“I will now cast a marking spell for everyone,” Listy said, waving her staff and enveloping everyone in a soft light. “Once the mission is complete, you can immediately revert by simply thinking ‘Return to Silver Wolf House’.”

As the spell took effect, everyone's figures were enveloped in a faint glow, as if they had gained an invisible layer of protection.

Viner glanced at the time; it was almost time to meet with Leia. She then scanned everyone to make sure they were all ready.

"Then, let's get started."

Chapter 617 Reverse Tracing

The outer walls of St. Freya Academy trembled amidst the deafening roar.

The mages raised their staffs high, and the bluish-gray rocks rose from the ground, forming a steep slope that led straight to the top of the city wall.

The paladins, clad in silver armor, surged up the stone slope like a tide, only to be driven back by a rain of fire ten meters from the crenellations.

Hordes of gargoyles hovered above the city walls, dark red demonic flames gathering between their fangs, forcing the paladins to raise their shields to defend themselves.

"Aim at the wing membrane!" Chlorie's voice pierced the sky.

Seeing that the knights' attack was thwarted, she immediately led the dragon knights to provide support.

The moment the bowstring trembled, an arrow imbued with the power of lightning pierced the gargoyle's left wing.

The monster, losing its balance, howled as it fell into the crowd, where it was pierced to pieces by the knight's lance.

The dragon riders followed closely behind, their arrows weaving into a dense net that tore a gap in the crimson sky.

Just as the situation was beginning to turn around, the teleportation array leading to the dungeon suddenly shone brightly, and another batch of flying magical beasts emerged from it.

The endless stream of demonic troops blocked the city wall defenses, and even the Holy Knights, despite their valor, could not break through the tide of enemies.

The two sides were deadlocked, and the battle reached a stalemate.

Leia stood outside the command tent, her gaze piercing through the smoke-filled battlefield.

"They should have already entered the dungeon."

-----------------

Vena and the others each selected a teleportation pillar, and after a brief flash of light, the four of them appeared around the sealing nodes on the seventh level of the dungeon.

As per the previously agreed plan, they would begin replacing the seal together.

Felix's node was located on a spacious platform, and as he passed through the teleportation pillar, he bumped into a patrol of headless knights.

"Uh...can you pretend you didn't see me?" Felix pleaded.

"Ow!"

The dutiful headless knight wouldn't listen to his explanations and charged at Felix, brandishing various weapons.

"Ugh."

Felix sighed softly, his hand already on the hilt of his sword.

Where the sword slashed, the headless knight's body snapped in two.

In the blink of an eye, these dutiful headless knights fell to the ground, utterly silent.

Felix didn't glance at the fallen monster again. He took out the sealing stone that Lisette had given him and placed it in the position of the sealing pillar.

"Just wait another five minutes, right?"

......

Having already set up the sealing stones, Vena was guarding a narrow passage, gripping the Flame Blade Gun tightly in his hand.

Faced with the oncoming horde of monsters, he kept pulling the trigger, and bullets that were both hot and cold sprayed out like a torrential rain, constantly bouncing in the narrow space.
