Then, you can immediately remove the cooldown and summon again by spending five hundred Lune, and if the Spiritual Horse is killed, it also costs five hundred Lune to resummon.

Money-hungry, huh!

For a cost of a thousand Lune, you can extend the Spiritual Horse’s maximum time in the present world, and along the way, she just managed to save up a little over a thousand Lune, so she instantly poured them all in.

A brilliant flash of light passed by, and Torret’s presence time increased from ten minutes to...

A full fifteen minutes!!!

The next upgrade would cost two thousand.

"..."

Uffie fretted for a while, unable to decide whether to curse the Sain Dungeon as being a rip-off.

Forget it, after all, it was given free by Melina, essentially a gift from the Sain Dungeon. Even if the time is a bit short, it doesn’t matter, as it was obtained for free.

As the saying goes, one who eats for free tends not to criticize the hand that feeds them. People of conscience wouldn’t defame Sain after getting a free item, at least not now.

"If we return to the Aire Church now, we’ll run into Big Sister Reina." Isha glanced at the moon hanging in the sky.

It’s amazing; unexpectedly, besides Lake Lienia, Nimgefo also experiences a day-night cycle, and it seems to sync with the outside world’s day-night cycle.

"We can go back to fetch it any time, and right now, we’re not lacking in the sort of Necromancer-like means as the Soul Summoning Bell."

Uffie looked towards the front of the checkpoint, and said:

"I want to get to Stoneveil as soon as possible, to experience the power of the so-called Demigods!"

In the outside world, Demigods are regarded as more powerful than the Legendary ones, and according to known information, Demigods don’t openly exist at all.

What kind of immense power does that Greg truly hold!

She was curious about it!

Before long, the three of them arrived at the military camp where the Grick Soldiers were stationed, and charged in from the relatively less crowded flank.

Previously, they had encountered the scattered Grick Soldiers in the forest. The soldiers were well-trained and quite strong, but their strength was only about that much; the camp had about fifty soldiers, including a Knight wielding a lance and Big Shield.

They planned to break in from the flank, first taking out some soldiers, then Uffie would handle the Grick Knight, and after defeating him they would turn back to help Fanen and Isha clear the remaining soldiers.

A perfect plan!

Their sudden intrusion caused immediate chaos in the camp, but not all the soldiers noticed the commotion right away, thus signallers were necessary.

Yet, just as a signaller picked up the horn to blow it and rally the troops, a Saw Meat Blade came flying out of nowhere, smashing his head.

"Well done, Fanen!"

Uffie quickly dispatched the nearby soldiers and rushed towards the Grick Knight, while Fanen used Arrow Step to retrieve the Saw Meat Blade and teamed up with Isha against the enclosing soldiers.

The plan was going smoothly, but the only problem was:

"Woof woof!"

A Hound swiftly grabbed the horn that had fallen to the ground and delivered it to another soldier, who immediately blew it, with the sound echoing through the entire camp.

Oops, should’ve crushed that horn to pieces!

A larger disturbance arose, causing Fanen to suck in a quick breath, now the pressure they faced increased, but with more than thirty soldiers remaining on the scene, the problem wasn’t supposed to be—

The tent in the camp was suddenly opened, and a massive group of fully armed soldiers surged out, surrounding Fanen and the others in a blink.

Even Uffie was dumbfounded.

Because the Grick Soldiers rushing out from all directions felt like they numbered in the hundreds!

"How do you fit so many people into your tents!" she couldn’t help but shout.

Moreover, when they checked earlier, the tents were clearly empty!

Could it be that this horn is a Magic Tool, able to summon a bunch of people just by blowing it?

In the blink of an eye, Fanen and Isha were engulfed by the sea of people; given the situation, even having a machine gun wouldn’t enable a breakthrough, and even a Sword Saint would first be drowned in the crowd before counterattacking.

The two became the first to bleed in Nimgefo.

"Tsk, what kind of demons or devils reside in these Dungeons."

Uffie sulked, pouting as things didn’t unfold as she envisioned, pushing away the Grick Knight as she fled into the dense forest. After searching around, the soldiers returned to their stations.

Afterwards, the three of them, disheveled and exhausted, began a review in front of the blessing, concluding unanimously:

"Smash that damned horn to bits!"

The second time, the three of them first eliminated the signaller and crushed the horn, just as they thought everything would follow the plan.

The surviving soldiers and Hounds suddenly started shouting, and their calls seemed to have the same effect as the horn, with the soldiers bursting out from the tents again, although slightly fewer than those summoned by the horn.

"Do-over!"

The third time, the trio opted for stealth, quietly snapping necks, aiming for an unseen slaughter.

Then, they got sniffed out by the sharp-nosed Hounds, and their barking immediately attracted a large number of soldiers.

"Do-over again!"

The fourth time, the trio wised up, realizing that they seemed to have no reason to fight the soldiers to the death, so why not just pass through the checkpoint!?

The number of soldiers in the checkpoint had decreased, yet there were piles of large crossbow cannons, and if hit, it would certainly make a big hole in their body.

Fortunately, these things should be difficult to hit such mobile individuals, so even if they force their way through, it should not be too much of a problem—
