“This is.”

Everyone’s expressions varied as Bart approached the tall iron hammer man statue. Now, even the purest-looking mage girl felt that something was wrong.

“Where’s the monster? Where is the monster you talked about?” The masked man was standing at the back of the group. His expression was vigilant and serious, and his gaze as he looked at Bart was cold.

However, Bart ignored the masked man. He slowly walked to the statue and squatted down. He lowered his head and said, “Great Lord, I have followed your orders and brought new believers.”

The people behind immediately exploded. The masked man took out the dagger at his waist and even the silly-looking mage girl could not control herself from shouting, “Don’t talk nonsense! I’m a loyal believer of the Goddess of Magic!”

As she spoke, she raised her staff and retreated, clearly wanting to leave this place that already made her feel very uneasy.

However, she was not the first to think of escaping. Behind the group, the masked man was standing in front of a faint red light barrier that had appeared at some point in time. His expression was very ugly.

“Demigod-level barrier…” He muttered as cold sweat dripped down his forehead.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

At this moment, a deep rumbling sound came from inside the cave. The masked man turned around and saw that the statue in front of Bart had come to life!

Stones began to fall from the statue’s body, revealing a tall and ferocious man with bulging muscles, who was wearing mighty armor and holding a large hammer.

This ferocious man was more than three meters tall and had a thick beard. His golden eyes calmly swept across the people in the cave as he said calmly, “Lowly mortals, I am the Lord of the Hammer. I will ask you, are you willing to offer your most loyal faith to me?”

This giant-like existence that gave off a terrifying pressure had a calm tone, but there was an inexplicable power in his words. It made the few people in the cave tremble and almost forced them to prostrate.

Of course, Zhou Chen was not included. He was still maintaining a low profile and thinking about how to deal with the current situation.

After a short silence, the swordsman, who had not spoken much since the beginning of the exploration, suddenly looked up at the existence who called himself the Lord of the Hammer and replied firmly, “I don’t want to! I will never give myself to you monsters who eat faith!”

“Hmm…” The Lord of the Hammer nodded slightly. “You have courage, mortal.”

Then, without any warning, he raised the large hammer in his hand and smashed it towards the head of the swordsman!

His movements did not seem to be fast, but the swordsman who was the target revealed a horrified expression. He could not move his body, as if he had turned into a fool and did not know how to dodge.

Boom!

The hammer smashed down, and the young man turned into a pile of meat dregs. Even his weapon, the claymore, was smashed into pieces by the hammer.

After killing the young man easily, the Lord of the Hammer looked at the few remaining people in the cave. “Lowly mortals, I’ll ask again. Are you willing to offer your most loyal faith to me?”

This time, his question caused a short period of silence. A few seconds later, the mage girl stammered a reply, “You… You can’t do this! I’m a believer of the Goddess of Magic! The Goddess of Magic won’t let you off!”

She retreated as if there was an escape route behind her.

“It’s useless. There’s an extremely powerful barrier here. Gods won’t pay attention to believers like us.” Before the Lord of the Hammer could reply, the masked man, who had returned at some point, calmly said to the mage girl with a complicated tone.

He then walked to the Lord of the Hammer and knelt down. He lowered his head and said, “I, Dimon Spiel, am willing to change my faith to the great Lord of the Hammer. I offer my most loyal faith to you.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt the pressure on his body reduce greatly. At the same time, he felt an inexplicable connection with the powerful existence in front of him. This connection was so magical and intimate, making him know that he could no longer disobey any orders from this existence.

“Very good, Dimon Spiel. I like smart mortals like you.” The giant Lord of the Hammer looked down at the masked man kneeling in front of him and smiled slightly.

“What about the two of you?” He then raised his head slightly and looked at the girl and Zhou Chen.

The mage girl’s body was shaking, and her eyes were filled with tears. Zhou Chen’s expression was calm as he looked straight at the Lord of the Hammer pensively.

“Mortal, you give me an extraordinary feeling. Are you willing to offer your faith to me?” Zhou Chen’s different behavior attracted the attention of the Lord of the Hammer. He ignored the mage girl who seemed to be on the verge of collapse and looked at Zhou Chen, who was standing calmly.

Zhou Chen immediately smiled and replied, “Sorry, I refuse.”

As soon as he finished speaking, an extremely terrifying aura erupted from his body. At the same
