Hello, is this a letter addressed to Demon Fortress?

Lin Gui could sense Gro's wariness.

If it were him, he wouldn't be able to tell a stranger everything either.

He did not insist.

I simply asked for the most precise coordinates of Avalon.

Gro did not deliberately conceal this sensitive information.

He took the map of the Wall of Sighs that Lin Gui had bought from Blackbeard.

Using a charcoal pencil, I drew a clear circle at a certain point in the Wailing Corridor.

The reason for this decisiveness is quite simple.

After the conversation, even without him saying anything, Lin Gui was already able to pinpoint the general area.

The Wailing Corridor itself is not very large.

Secondly, although the Forest Ghost's concealment magic surprised Groh.

This even caused Hannah to suffer a loss at the hands of Shea.

Even so, Groh doesn't think so—

The opponent was able to cross the perilous terrain that even he could not cross.

If a high-ranking mage could truly traverse the Wailing Corridor alone...

Those legendary demon king guards lying in the wailing corridor would probably be so enraged that they would turn into vengeful spirits.

Gro shook his head and chuckled inwardly.

In fact, the location of Avalon remains a mystery to those who are unaware of it.

However, for the other 80 Demon Kings who can sense the location where the Demon King Pillars are activated, it is not a secret.

The factional struggles among demons are far more intense than those among humans.

Too many demons wanted to kill Guxin, to obtain his Demon King Pillar, and ultimately to become Demon Kings.

Many of the demons sent to hunt down Guxin are just as powerful as Gro.

There are even 3 epic demon kings, two lower epic and one mid epic.

But in the end, upon seeing the wailing corridor, they all withdrew.

The only person Gro had ever seen who could be considered a time traveler was Shadow Blade Lin from over a decade ago.

But the opponent relied on extreme speed to withstand the attacks of all the spirits and gritted their teeth to pass through.

The speed of an epic-ranked assassin...

As for those demons who wanted to hunt down Guxin, Gro hadn't seen them for a long time...

Until now.

Groh's expression turned serious again as he recalled the group that had captured Cass in the church.

Are they taking action now that they've realized Guxin has left the Howling Corridor?

As a witcher, Cass does indeed have the ability to track down Gushin.

He didn't say anything more and carefully picked up Hannah, who was still unconscious.

He turned around and strode off in the direction Rosa had left.

Watching Gro's figure disappear into the end of the ruins.

Xia tugged at the hem of Lin Gui's robe and asked, puzzled:

"Are we just going to let him go like that?"

Lin Gui withdrew his gaze and calmly replied:

"Otherwise what? The other party is a legendary high-ranking knight."

"Can we stop them?"

That's not what I meant!

Shea stomped her foot, her silver hair swaying slightly with the movement.

"I mean, we're not going to follow him?"

Her emerald green eyes were filled with seriousness.

"Didn't he say that without Gusin, no one can enter Avalon?"

"The Howling Corridor... even that short, stout guy with the black beard mentioned it."

She counted on her fingers.

"Epic demons are everywhere, and there are even rumors of a pinnacle of epic-level power."

"Yingrenlin paid a heavy price for her time travel back then."

"So shouldn't we go with Gro and go find Gushin?"

The more she talked, the more she realized how true it made sense.

"How wonderful it would be to find Gusin and have him lead us into Avalon!"

Lin Gui sighed helplessly as he looked at her enthusiastic expression.

"Sia, this is just a minor incident."

He reached out and gently flicked her forehead.

"We originally had a plan."

"Don't think about overturning everything just because something changes."

Shea and Eve were both taken aback.

The two looked at each other and blinked.

Then, they all let out a soft exclamation of sudden realization:

"ah……?"

"Plan? What plan?"

Shea turned to look at Eve, her face full of confusion.

"Eve, have you heard Lin Gui mention anything about a 'plan to reach Avalon'?"

Eve furrowed her brows slightly.

Even she, who was usually calm and collected, was somewhat bewildered at this moment.

She tilted her head slightly, her light golden short hair swaying gently with the movement.

He revealed a slightly cute expression as he tried hard to remember.

Finally, in some corner of her memory, she found the "plan" that Lin Gui had mentioned.

only……

Eve's expression turned somewhat strange.

She initially thought it was just a joke Lin Gui made casually.

Because that plan was far too hasty.

Like a reckless young man who doesn't know his own limitations.

He attempted to challenge a legendary knight who was fully armed.

She stepped forward and carefully examined Lin Gui's face.

He then raised his hand, a faint magical glow emanating from his fingertips.

Gently press it on his forehead.

Lin Gui asked, puzzled, "What are you doing?"

Eve blinked and said seriously:

"Look at your head, is it being eroded by fog, causing you to lose your mind?"

Lin Gui silently slapped her hand away.

Shia leaned closer and nodded seriously:

"Yeah, yeah! Lin Gui, you're definitely out of your mind!"

Curious, she pressed on, "So, what exactly is Lin Gui's plan?"

Eve paused for a moment, then repeated in a strange tone:

"If I remember correctly, it was something like..."

"The bounty hunter's party has arrived at the nearest safe city-state, Blackwater."

"Then, using Blackwater City as a base, we'll head towards Avalon..."

She paused, then spoke slowly and deliberately.

"Just 'brute force' it."

"Relying on the speed of the flying boat."

Shia: "...???"

Her mouth was slightly open, and she froze for a few seconds.

Then he finally remembered—Lin Gui had indeed said those words.

But it sounded too frivolous at the time, and she didn't take it seriously at all.

Shia's expression instantly turned serious.

She grasped Eve's arm, her voice earnest:

"Eve, quickly get his brain treated."

"This guy... he's absolutely insane."

"As the big shot just said, only Guxin can pass through the Howling Corridor."

Shea put her hands on her hips, her tone full of "You're hopeless."

"Doesn't this mean you're being told the right thing to do is go find Guxin?"

"And yet you're still here, planning to go with that outrageous plan."

"To traverse the Howling Corridor, which even a powerful epic-level expert like Shadow Blade Lin is unwilling to cross?"

The more she talked about it, the more unbelievable it seemed to her.

"It's true you ventured into the Blackwater Forest alone, but can it compare to the Wailing Wall?"

"Even the old man from Bahrain wasn't this terrified when he talked about the Blackwater Forest!"

"I'm not crazy."

Lin Gui shook his head, his expression unusually serious.

"This is the safest approach I've come up with after careful consideration."

The words fell.

Shea and Eve both fell silent.

The two stared at him blankly, their eyes looking as if they were sizing up a stranger.

A simpleton who suddenly sheds all his caution and begins to go completely insane.

The doubt and the sense of "you're hopeless" in those eyes almost materialized.

Lin Gui can be read without even having to guess.

He sighed.

Well... this was indeed the result of his careful consideration.

Moreover, he was 7% confident about the plan.

And if what Ryan said is true.

The deathly silence along the way was the biggest surprise, and the strange phenomena that Lin Gui encountered when he first crossed the Wall of Sighs were not an illusion.

Then Lin Gui's confidence in crossing the Howling Corridor would increase by another 1%.

With Avalon's precise coordinates.

If Groh wasn't deceiving himself.

So, this time, after traversing the Wailing Corridor, we arrived at Avalon...

Perhaps he can succeed on his first try.

There is absolutely no need to use Blackwater City as a base and repeatedly try and fail.
