The grease dispersed, and the battle ended.

Lucius and his team broke free from the room.

Han Dong noticed a small detail, which was the change in Lucius’ stride and arm swing as he walked out of the greasy room.

Obviously, the fight with the Greasy Barbara was not simple.

Either Lucius had consumed a certain amount of physical strength or was injured in the battle.

Jane and Death Spirit Lunze were also somewhat uncomfortable, with twisted pollution patterns spreading all over their bodies.

Seeing this situation, Han Dong thought:

“I have seen this greasy woman. She is a lot stronger than most executives. Moreover, she has a large amount of reserve grease and wax figures. Defeating her must come at a price.

Even if Lucius’s group is powerful, their ‘Pollution Resistance’ is still at the level of an Apprentice Knight. The pollution carried by the grease directly contacts the skin, inevitably leading to deep infection.

With your current physical conditions, it won’t be easy to get into the top level ‘Family Area’.”

As Han Dong had expected.

After Lucius’s team left the room, they immediately took out a kind of anti-pollution potion from their belts.

A powerful elite team like theirs had completed a large number of bounty tasks during their three years at Knight Academy, and they were not short of money.

They would not resort to drinking ‘Holy Water’, the most basic anti-pollution potion.

Any task related to pollution involved purchasing potions made by pharmacists from the trading center.

The effect of the potion was very obvious.

The deep color lines covering their skin and near their eye sockets considerably faded.

But… the contours of these pollution patterns still existed.

To completely eradicate pollution, one must return to the church inside the Holy City for ‘baptism’ and ‘stress release’. Any form of potion merely serves a superficial inhibitory effect.

If not eradicated, as the number of pollutions increases, the effect of the potion will significantly decrease.

In the room full of grease.

Housekeeper Barbara kneeled on the ground, her brain was damaged, her heart was also pierced, a ‘Blood Curse Mark’ covered her whole body… her real body was already dead.

“I’m sorry! The target’s consciousness is too intense to be controlled by the spell of the dead spirit.”

Lunze bowed his head apologetically.

At the same time, due to the failure to control the target, he suffered a backlash at the level of consciousness, with blood continuously flowing from his nostrils.

“It’s not your fault. The consciousness of high-level ‘Different People’ is inherently stable. Take a rest, and we will continue to advance to the top floor.

We must be the first team to make contact with the Great Lord.

As for the ‘key’ problem, we will consider it when we reach the corridor.”

At that moment, Han Dong, who was confined by the bone handcuffs, suddenly said: “If the key can’t be found, we have a way…”

“What’s the way?”

“My teammate, Winry, majors in ‘Machinery’ and has a good understanding of model making. She might be able to help.”

“If you guys do well, Lunze will let his Skeleton Soldier escort you safely out of the ‘Upper Area’. However, don’t try to play any tricks.”

Blood Knight Lucius was exceedingly cautious. Having touched the source of the event, he could not afford any mistakes.

After the team rested for a while, in front of the corridor leading to the top floor.

A stone door with a complex seal on its surface completely blocked the corridor; forced vandalism was not an option.

Jane, an experienced Shadow Assassin, tried a basic lock-picking technique but failed to open the door after fumbling around the lock for a while, so she subtly shook her head and returned to the team.

Click…

At this moment, Winry’s handcuffs were unlocked, but Han Dong was still handcuffed.

After carefully examining the condition of the lock by a searchlight kerosene lamp and pairing it with protective goggles with a magnifying effect, Winry immediately took out a special forging fire stone from her backpack to craft the key on the spot.

“Blacksmith … a rookie has such craftsmanship? Are you the old man’s student?” Lucius asked with surprise.

Winry was fully immersed in forging the key and didn’t answer Lucius’s question.

After the main body of the key is forged, a very fine carving tool is used to engrave a unique pattern on the surface of the key.

This pattern perfectly matches with the seal on the stone gate and is the real key to opening the stone door.

Sizzle sizzle sizzle!

A large bottle of cold water was poured onto the hot key, completing the final quenching process.

Click…

As the key turned, the stone door opened.

Not only Lucius and his party watched Winry with different eyes.

Even Han Dong was shocked by such exquisite forging skills… Winry’s talent in being a Blacksmith was unparalleled in the entire school.

Click.

Just to be safe.

Winry was still shackled by a set of bone handcuffs, tied to the rear of the team.

The only difference was,

Lucius instructed the assassin in the team:

“Jane, stay behind to protect these two. Leave the evil entity prowling on the fourth floor to Lunze and me … you were most affected by the leech oil, rest well, we cannot afford to impact the final fight.”

Jane, wearing the skull mask, nodded.

There was a layer of dark mist covering the corridor.

The closer to the top, the lower the temperature … You could even hear the whispers of ghosts constantly emanating from above.

The official top floor – The ‘Family Area’.

Dilapidated, dark, deserted, as if it had been abandoned for hundreds of years, in sharp contrast with the third floor, which was carpeted in red and lit with candles.

This huge contrast made Lucius feel uncomfortable, there must be something dangerous hidden in the darkness.

Han Dong, who followed at the rear of the team, had a slight smile flashing across his face.

Yesterday evening,

when he followed Barbara to the ‘Family Area’, they didn’t encounter any danger because of their senior cadre status.

But … if it were strangers, the situation would be somewhat different.

Han Dong chose the top floor as the deciding battleground precisely because a large number of ghosts resided here.

A chill wind, like a ghostly hand, brushed past Winry’s body as she stared at the creepy paintings on the corridor walls, causing her to immediately bury her head into Han Dong’s back, afraid to look anymore.

“Ah, so scary …”

“It’s alright, Jane will protect us.”

As Han Dong glanced at Jane, who was wearing a skull mask and remained silent, he accidentally observed a strange change in a painting of a woman beside her.

The painting, which originally had its eyes pierced, suddenly had two living eyeballs staring intently at the group.

Han Dong was about to warn the others,

Whoosh …

Two dark shadow daggers accurately pierced through, destroying the painting in the process.

At the same time,

Lucius, the Blood Knight at the head of the group, suddenly stopped.

Because about two meters in front of him, a white ghost pushing a baby carriage was passing horizontally… there were several transparent tentacles gently floating inside the baby carriage.

Suddenly, a kind of baby crying intermixed with some high-pitched murmurs began to echo throughout the corridor.

Everyone covered their ears at the same time.
