Chapter 599: Chapter 299 We Will Challenge_1

In that mysterious world filled with wraith entities, Long Dangdang felt a deep concern due to the inadequacy of their equipment. When he faced an 8th Rank wraith, he believed that with his current strength, he should just be able to hold his own. However, when the opponent used equipment more proficient than his, it made his counterattack particularly difficult. Many of his weapons had been broken by the adversary.

If he had sufficiently strong equipment, he was confident he could stand up against any other 8th Rank professional.

Reflecting on his own existing equipment, he found that his Mage’s gear was sufficient. His Chaos Magic Staff and gold rush magic robe were both top quality. However, his Knight’s equipment was extremely lacking. The Inaugural Silver Waves Magic had already been destroyed. He really can’t talk about his weapons, and he never paid much attention to his armor before and had no suitable one to enhance his strength.

In the past, he had considered undergoing the assessment for mithril cathedra armor, which undoubtedly would be the best way to arm himself. But due to a series of unforeseeable events, he never found the time to prepare. After experiencing this incident, he decided that regardless of what it took, he would find a way to arm himself and his brother stronger. Otherwise, on what basis could they venture into Calamity City to rescue their parents?

"Big Brother, we don’t have enough money, do we? Let’s use our demon hunter merits to exchange for it. After all, they won’t let us return to the Devil Realm for a while," Long Kongkong suggested.

However, Long Dangdang shook his head, saying, "No, there’s a more convenient way than buying or exchanging. Rest for a while, let’s master the power we gained after this promotion of the spirit furnace and your advance, then I’ll take you to find equipment."

Long Kongkong’s breakthrough did not attract any attention. After all, it was normal for professions to cause some commotion when they broke through to the 7th Rank, especially considering Ling Menglu’s breakthrough in the Devil Realm, which created a great sensation. If someone broke through to the 7th Rank at the Temple Headquarters, it would definitely attract attention. However, his breakthrough was completed in another strange dimension, and after returning, he did not cause any fluctuations at all.

The brothers seemed to be just in normal cultivation, and since their companions knew they were not in a good mood, they did not rehearse with them recently. Aside from strictly forbidding them to leave the headquarters, everyone at the Temple Headquarters left them alone.

Ling Menglu was the only one who sensed that something was not right. She was very perceptive and could vaguely feel that Long Dangdang and Long Kongkong seemed a little different, but she didn’t ask. She just came to accompany Long Dangdang every day, then returned to the Priests Temple to cultivate.

Recently, both she and the other team members took advantage of the time at the Temple Headquarters to learn higher-level skills in their respective temples. This was the reason they were not training together. After all, they had all broken through to the 7th Rank. For professionists, after reaching the 7th Rank, it was an entirely new level. Their status within their respective temples had also become entirely different.

In the blink of an eye, three days had passed since Long Dangdang and Long Kongkong’s breakthrough.

Early in the morning, the two brothers left their dwelling and headed for the Knights Temple Headquarters.

"Could you please pass a message for us, we would like to see Lord Paladin Commander," Long Dangdang took out his demon hunter token and handed it to the headquarters guard.

Although the two of them were already very well-known among the higher-ups of the Knights Temple, the temple naturally would not advertise them before they had grown. As such, the low and middle ranking Knights didn’t know much about them. However, the status of a demon hunting team member was highly revered among the six Great Sacred Temples. Almost all the higher-ups of the six Great Sacred Temples had gone through the baptism of the Demon Hunting Team. Becoming a demon hunter was in itself a great recognition. Demon hunters also had a transcendent position among the six Great Sacred Temples.

The guard accepted Long Dangdang’s Seed Spirit Crystal and, after giving him the Knight’s salute, turned around to do as requested.

Turning his head, Long Kongkong looked at Long Dangdang and asked in a lack of confidence, "Big brother, are we really going to make it?"

Long Dangdang affirmed, "We will make it happen. Whether we can or not, we still have to try. Don’t tell me you don’t want to save mom and dad."

The hesitance of Long Kongkong instantly hardened into determination. Without thought, he clenched his fist and waved it, "Let’s do it!"

Before long, the guard returned to their side and told them that the Paladin Commander invited them in. He then led the two to Paladin Commander Nan Yu’s office.

The Paladin Commander held an extraordinary position in the Knights Temple. Only the one with high integrity and pure holy power could assume the position, and they were almost always the core of the Sacred Legate in the future.

Nan Yu looked at the two brothers standing before him and immediately spoke before they could begin, "I have heard about your situation. It is indeed regrettable about your parents’ disappearance. However, if you are hoping that I will grant you permission to leave the headquarters, do not even speak up. The Temple is trying to find your missing parents, but you absolutely cannot rush into any danger. As that will only result in meaningless sacrifices, do you understand?"

long Dangdang nodded, replying, "We understand. Don’t worry, we may be anxious but we won’t be foolhardy."

Nan Yu’s expression softened, he stood up and approached Long Dangdang, "Dangdang, this incident was the Temple’s negligence. On behalf of the Knights Temple, I apologize for not protecting your parents properly. These past few days, the higher-ups have been discussing and planning to assemble an elite force to infiltrate the Wraith Kingdom in the hopes of potentially saving your parents. So, do not act impetuously. If even we can’t manage it, it’s even less likely you would be able to achieve anything now."
