• Jialuoke brought Xia Ping and the demon lords to a heavily fortified base beside the forbidden Demon God Ruins.
• Adolf called the newcomers cannon fodder and explained that they had to explore the ruins twice yearly, with new arrivals entering during their first month and remaining until they had explored more than twenty times.
