She had seen both Dragonmen and petrified puppets before; they were monsters that were extremely troublesome for newly initiated Professionals.
But for a seasoned Professional, or even an Awakener like Barn, they were still not enough to be a threat.
She had not seen Stone Giants before, only heard that they were enormous and hard as iron, making it difficult for ordinary swords to harm them in the slightest, with the most formidable ones even causing some losses for the Iron Wolf Knights.
However, she later learned that Barn was not with the lost team at the time; his approach was to divide the Iron Wolf Knights into small teams to conduct a carpet search of Sky City.
Who would have thought there would be special life forms like Stone Giants that were not afraid of being beaten, catching the Iron Wolf Knights off guard?
"Let's continue talking about the clothes. Were these bought in Hutton Mar? I seem to feel a faint magical aura from them."
Isabella touched Ye Lin's sleeve. This kind of equipment was different from cloth armor. Cloth armor, due to material limitations, was rarely made to be beautiful and elegant.
"Yes, that shop also has a mysterious Sky Set. When worn as a complete set, it emits special glowing effects, making it extremely dazzling and noble."
"Quick, tell me, clothes that glow?"
Isabella's interest greatly increased. Besides adventuring, she also liked collecting exquisite and rare items, with clothes and jewelry being her favorites.
"Your Highness, to be honest, those clothes are too expensive. The owner keeps you in suspense and doesn't sell them directly. You must use a special item called a 【Costume Synthesizer】 to combine two magical clothes, and only then is there a chance to get them. The probability is very, very low, and you still have to buy the clothes yourself, which are super expensive."
Isabella's eyes sparkled even more. Such a bizarre way of creation was truly fitting for her status as a princess. The more precious, the better; the more expensive, the better!
Gold coins? Aren't they just numbers?
Siate, amused and helpless, acted as a clothes rack for him to show off. She and the princess, who should have been mortal enemies, now surprisingly found some common ground.
While Isabella was talking enthusiastically, Barn on the other side had a dark face and walked with a slight limp.
Although the mysterious armor animated by magic was extraordinary, it was still far from being his opponent.
But who would have thought that a Destroyer, whose helmet and legs he had removed, could still pick up a long sword and ambush him from the ground?
Caught off guard and careless, he suffered a great loss. His calf was cut, leaving a bleeding wound. If he hadn't been wearing light armor combat boots, he might have lost a chunk of flesh.
The sudden explosion, the mysterious magical armor, and his own injury made him instinctively want to leave this cursed place.
However, the sudden pain in his Ghost Hand made him stop and stay to investigate further.
The reason why even the Ghost God Bind, repaired by the 【Correction Tool】, was subtly failing was most likely due to Transfer Experiment aura or magical disturbance.
Whichever it was, finding out the cause would be a great achievement for the Delos Empire.
Barn longed for power and status!
The Destroyer's special life ability gave Barn a lot of trouble. He never knew if those shattered armors would suddenly ambush and stab him the next moment.
But the Awakener's formidable sword intent still prevailed. Barn's rampant slaughter finally attracted a silver-white knight deep within the Dark Corridor, different from the numerous ancient green armors. Two points of crimson light suddenly appeared in its empty eye sockets.
It moved slowly towards Barn, accompanied by its attendant, carrying a green light sword.

"After Sky City, I must go to that shop and buy something to take back to Delos."
"Yes, yes, wearing the Sky costume, Your Highness will be the most dazzling person in Delos!"
Ye Lin naturally praised it vigorously. The fashion store was currently managed by Tana, and the money she earned was equivalent to the money he earned.
"By the way, do you know the history of Sky City?"
Perhaps because she found talking with Ye Lin quite comfortable, without any princess airs, she was happy to talk about other things to pass the time before Barn returned from his exploration, such as Sky City.
"I don't know."
He knew, but now he pretended not to know. Isabella's mysterious demeanor clearly implied, 'You guys cooperate, this princess is about to show off!'
"According to ancient imperial texts and the Black Elves, Sky City is an incomplete sky-reaching city!"
"Really?"
Ye Lin and Siate cooperated, exclaiming repeatedly.
"Of course it's true. The former Sky City was called the City of Creeping, covered and distorted by Bakal's magic. It was impossible to approach within a thousand meters, and from a distance, it looked like a sky-reaching creeping worm."
Isabella narrowed her eyes, feeling very comfortable. As a noble princess, she naturally had no shortage of flatterers around her, but those cloying compliments always carried a certain purpose, all because of her father, the Emperor of the Delos Empire!
Opportunities like this, to boast about strange tales and knowledge with like-minded Adventurers, were truly rare.
At the same time, Ye Lin listened and secretly rejoiced that 'Hound' Seles hadn't followed the princess this time. If Barn could still weigh the pros and cons of certain matters for himself, then Seles and Siate meeting would definitely result in an immediate drawing of swords, with no room for reconciliation.
Siate's meaning was that the Transfer Experiment ruined her life and changed her trajectory, and she couldn't swallow the injustice without revenge.
Seles, on the other hand, had lost her father in the war against the Rebel Army and considered the Rebel Army her sworn enemy.
Unlike Siate, who practiced the forbidden Sword Control Technique, Seles was a Contract Demon that communicated with demons, and she had a terrifying level of compatibility with them.
Not long after they chatted and laughed, four more figures appeared on the other side of the suspended ladder. This time, the arrivals made Ye Lin overjoyed.
Yuena and Mai Lu were safe and sound, and they brought a woman in a blue gown with a graceful figure. The blue enchantress blooming on her head and her charming, mature eyeshadow and lipstick indicated her identity: Shalan!
This dignified and mature aura made Mai Lu and Yuena, who were following beside her, unconsciously lower their heads.
And the person following Shalan almost brought tears to Ye Lin's eyes. Old man, you're finally here! Take me, Dragonman King, let's fight the boss and then retreat and restart, and hand over the weapon 【GSD's Ultimate Wave Blade】!
Bald, with crossed cloth strips over his eyes, a tattered cloak, five weapons strapped to his back and one at his waist, and a slight beer belly, though old, he exuded a sharp aura.
A trace of apprehension flashed in Isabella's eyes. The Delos Empire had not fully annexed Hutton Mar, not only because of management inconvenience, but this old man was also an unstable factor.
He possessed a Ghost Hand but was not a Ghost Cry, and he never wore a Ghost God Bind. His twisted Ghost Hand was completely unconcealed, and his powerful willpower overshadowed even gods.
Despite being blind, no subtle movement could escape him, and he also mastered the "Wave Stone" which could help Professional Asuras advance.
Kelly of Hutton Mar was wild and unpredictable, but she dared not cause trouble in front of G.S.D.
