Nie Yan looked at the stats of the Paternoster Warhammer and was shocked. He immediately took out the Death God's Edge. These two items were clearly in the same class, and he couldn't use them for the time being. Nie Yan was amazed by the powerful attributes of these two weapons.

He couldn't use this item for the time being, but the Paternoster Warhammer was a little different from the Death God's Edge. The Death God's Edge's attributes were completely unusable, while the Paternoster Warhammer had some attributes that could be used, including a 30% bonus to all stats and the Frost Guard skill. As long as the Paternoster Warhammer was placed in his backpack, these two attributes would take effect.

The Frost Guard skill was a protective skill with a very strong effect. It could protect Nie Yan from damage for a specific period. Thirty minutes was a very long time, and all his escape skills would be fully cooled down during that time.

With a 30% increase to all stats, Nie Yan checked his defense, which had reached an astonishing 28,700. His health reached more than 37,000, and his base attack reached more than 12,000, which could reach 32,000 after equipment bonuses.

Such stats were enough to leave many warriors speechless. A Shield Warrior like Brilliant Knife Light only had a defense of around 20,000.

A leather armor type defense of 28,700, when defending against physical attacks, converted to heavy armor defense, would be roughly equivalent to about 15,000, and when defending against magic attacks, converted to heavy armor could reach more than 26,000.

In other words, Nie Yan's magic defense ability had far surpassed Brilliant Knife Light, while his physical defense was slightly weaker.

Just as Nie Yan saw the Paternoster Warhammer, a system prompt sounded.

Song of the Thorns Bird quest progress: Take the Paternoster Warhammer to Mefistofeles in the Lost City of Batte, and he will tell you how to obtain the Heart of the Assassin.

The City of Batte? Seeing this quest clue, Nie Yan frowned. He remembered that this City of Batte was once a very prosperous city, but was later cursed by the legendary demon Georgiana and sank into the ground. That city should be in the northern part of the Satrin Empire.

According to geographical divisions, the underground area north of the Satrin Empire was the territory of the Demonkin tribes.

It seemed he had to make a trip. However, after obtaining the Paternoster Warhammer, the Song of the Thorns Bird quest had been fully activated.

The Paternoster Warhammer emitted a chilling cold, and the surrounding air was shrouded in a hazy white mist due to the low temperature. The Death God's Edge, on the other hand, exuded a dark aura that grew stronger with time. The two unique artifacts seemed to possess spirituality, and they were fighting against each other.

The friction of the surrounding elements became more and more intense, tearing everything around them. If the tearing force continued to increase, Nie Yan was worried that he wouldn't be able to withstand it.

He quickly put the two items into his backpack space, and they calmed down.

What secrets did these two artifacts contain?

Besides these two artifacts, how many artifacts were there in Faith?

In his previous life, someone should have obtained an artifact. Artifacts were different from ordinary items. They would drop after death, so few players who obtained an artifact would flaunt it.

After staying in the Orc King City for a while, Nie Yan received a message from Ji Feng, saying that a level 130 Demon Slayer had appeared around the Orc King City. It had already slaughtered five or six villages and seemed to be looking for something, but it didn't dare to get close to the Orc King City.

Nie Yan was stunned when he heard this news. He didn't expect the Demon Slayer to be afraid to enter the Orc King City and take his anger out on the residents around the Orc King City.

With the Demon Slayer's strength, unless a legendary-level NPC was dispatched, basically no one could deal with it.

He didn't know when the Demon Slayer would stop.

Nie Yan suddenly had an idea, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He sent a message to Ji Feng and asked, "Ji Feng, is there any way for me to sneak into Angel Corps' fortress?"

"Sneak into Angel Corps' fortress? How long do you need to stay in the fortress?"

"About a day or two."

"That's a bit difficult. Although Angel Corps' fortresses implement a semi-open system, they prevent idle human players from entering."

Hearing Ji Feng's words, Nie Yan frowned. Angel Corps strictly controlled the players who entered their fortresses, so it might be difficult for him to sneak in. It seemed he could only use the old method, sneak in!

"I'm going to sneak into Angel Corps' Clement Fortress. Get me a copy of the defense map inside."

"That won't work, it's too crazy. Boss Guo Huai told me to be responsible for your safety, I can't let you take risks." Ji Feng said. Nie Yan was different from ordinary players. It was normal for ordinary players to die once or twice, they would just resurrect. But Nie Yan, under the players' great hype, had achieved an undefeated reputation. If he died, it would be a huge loss to the Niu Ren Tribe.

"It's just sneaking into a fortress, there's no danger at all. Just send me the information, I'll talk to Guo Huai about it."

"Alright then." Ji Feng couldn't argue and could only nod in agreement.

Angel Corps' main fortress had now been moved to Clement Fortress, located north of the Orc King City.

It was a low-level fortress, but it was in a very advantageous location. It was in the center of the Angel Corps fortress group, and it was located in a canyon. The plain in front of the fortress was very narrow, and both sides were steep mountain walls. It could be said to be easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Originally, Angel Corps' main fortress was in another mid-level fortress, but as Nie Yan's Okoron City developed, Angelic Feather felt a sense of unease, so he moved the fortress to the safer Clement Fortress and upgraded the fortress's defenses on a large scale. Dense arrow towers and cannons were placed on the high cliffs near Clement Fortress. Angel Corps' investment in defense was at least two or three times that of the Niu Ren Tribe's Kripps Fortress at its peak, but of course, it was no match for Okoron City.

Soon, Ji Feng obtained a very complete defense map of Clement Fortress for Nie Yan, as well as a topographical map of the area near Clement Fortress.

These were two very complete maps, made with great care.

"I heard you're going to Angel Corps' Clement Fortress?" Guo Huai sent a message to Nie Yan and asked.

"Yes." Nie Yan nodded.

"You have to be careful. Angel Corps' Clement Fortress is not like other places. I've seen their defense map, it's like a hedgehog. It's not easy to take it down. It's said that they spent a lot of money to upgrade the fortress. The defenses inside are no worse than a mid-level fortress, and the population density is also very high."

"Don't worry, when have I ever had a problem? Even if I'm discovered, it's too easy to run away. They wouldn't dare to bombard the fortress with their cannons."

"I knew I couldn't stop you. Alright, keep in touch." Guo Huai said with a wry smile.

Nie Yan studied the defense map and was a little surprised. Angel Corps was indeed very attentive to Clement Fortress. There was actually no credit point commercial area in the entire fortress, and there were very few buildings like residential houses. In addition to the guild headquarters and a few other important buildings, the rest of the fortress was used to build turrets and arrow towers. There were as many as a thousand magic导炮 alone, and there were countless arrow towers.

Angel Corps' mechanical industry was not much inferior to the Niu Ren Tribe, and the number of people was even greater than the Niu Ren Tribe. The Niu Ren Tribe's advantage was that they had more advanced blueprints, because Nie Yan had an NPC slave who could copy blueprints.

No guild could compare to the Niu Ren Tribe's development in catapults. Their production capacity was frighteningly high. As for Angel Corps, they put all their energy into magic導炮, producing nearly three thousand cannons and distributing them in various fortresses.

Looking at Clement Fortress' defenses, Nie Yan couldn't help but feel a little depressed. It probably wouldn't be easy to take down Angel Corps' fortress in the future.

Nie Yan studied the infiltration route and prepared some necessary consumables.

"Guo Huai, send a few thieves to keep an eye on the Demon Slayer's location." Nie Yan said. He didn't want to be intercepted by the Demon Slayer on the way.

Nie Yan estimated that it would take about ten minutes to travel to Clement Fortress on the Darkwing Dragon, after all, the distance wasn't that far, he just needed to be a little careful.

With everything ready, Nie Yan went to the outskirts of the Orc King City and found a less crowded place to summon the Darkwing Dragon.

Looking at the Darkwing Dragon's condition, most of the injuries it suffered last time had recovered. It was still slightly injured, but flying was definitely no problem.

Nie Yan jumped onto the Darkwing Dragon's back. The Darkwing Dragon flapped its wings and with a whoosh, it soared into the sky.
