Sun Fei was overjoyed upon seeing this. "You... finally identified this set of equipment?"

Grandpa Cain shoved the fairly complete set of magical equipment into Sun Fei's hands, laughing triumphantly and nodding repeatedly, "That's right, it's been identified... I even made some minor modifications based on the magical principles on it. Now, even if its creator stood right in front of you, they wouldn't be able to recognize this armor... I must say, it's truly amazing. The enchanting methods on the armor and the magical patterns' flow of magic are incredibly unique and ingenious, truly an eye-opener... However, I can see that this technique is essentially the same as the magical principles of the Rogue Continent... Sun Fei, I think I've inadvertently discovered a brand new magical door. If I fully open this door, I might obtain power that even the gods tremble with!"

Hearing Cain's exaggerated words, Sun Fei's heart stirred. He handed over the handwritten copy of the magic journal he had originally intended to give Akara: "Then take a look at this, see if you can find anything."

"This is..."

Old Man Cain took the magic manual with a hint of doubt. He glanced at it a few times, and his eyes immediately lit up. He exclaimed in amazement, like Wolffy seeing a fat Paddi: "Aha, heavens, so that's how it is... I knew it... Oh, what a brilliant design... These are truly unbelievable magic vortexes and amplitude techniques... Oh my god, it actually works... Oh, I see, so that's how it is... What a brilliant idea!"

After a series of dazed and frantic exclamations, the white-bearded old man, like those unkempt mad scientists of his past life, completely ignored Sun Fei and became utterly engrossed. He turned and, holding the magic manuscript, headed towards his tent, leaving behind only the words: "With this, once I've refined my new theory, aha, I think I can help you unlock that strange storage ring..."

This old man was like a Whirlwind, arriving quickly and leaving even faster.

Sun Fei could only shake his head, a black line appearing on his forehead.

In the [ Rogue Encampment ], Grandpa Cain and Grandma Akara possessed profound theoretical knowledge of magic, making them the perfect professors Sun Fei had long intended to mentor. Previously, however, they hadn't been able to act on this due to slight differences between the magic systems of the Diablo World and Azeroth Continent. If Grandpa Cain could truly decipher the principles of magic in the Azeroth Continent, then Sun Fei would be able to implement many of his plans.

"I need to go to the World of Light to prepare some potions. Have Elena come with me!"

Sister Akara was curious about the mutations in potion recipes on the Azeroth Continent. Like the white-bearded old man Cain, this master theorist, who was proficient in potion-making and scroll-making, also discovered a brand new door to potion-making. If she was lucky, she believed that she could create a completely new potion-making discipline that had never been seen before.

Without hesitation, Sun Fei activated his divine skill [ Summon ], opening Teleport and sending Akara and the beautiful mercenary Elena to Chambord City. Angela, accompanied by her Big Black Whirlwind and some clever and studious children from the city, followed Sister Akara up the hill behind Chambord City. There, countless herbs and plants grew. Akara, as if discovering a new continent, immediately began her extraordinary feat of 'Shennong tasting hundreds of herbs'.

Sun Fei then returned to the Diablo World.

He exited [ Barbarian Mode ] and selected [ Sorceress Mode ] on the 3D holographic projection screen. The Wizard character is currently the only one of the seven classes in Diablo World I haven't completed yet; however, only the last two quests remain. In the next three hours, if he completes the quests 'Annihilate the Earl of the Forgotten Tower ' and 'Kill the Fallen Sister Andariel,' Sun Fei can use all seven classes to clear the first act of Diablo World, [ Rogue Encampment ]. The anticipated rewards might finally arrive.

The killing and leveling up have begun.

Two hours later.

"Aaaaaah..."

Deep within the basement of the monastery in the [ Tamoe Highlands ] of the Rogue Continent, a roar filled with endless sorrow and resentment suddenly erupted, instantly echoing throughout the Rogue Continent. After the roar subsided, the female demon leader Andariel fell for the seventh time at Sun Fei's feet. Crimson blood soaked the basement's stones, a massive tremor caused the earth to crack, and flames engulfed Andariel's corpse. The surrounding monsters and demons were burned to ashes amidst their wails.

For the seventh time, Sun Fei saw tears streaming from Andariel's beautiful eyes.

What a tear that was!

The glistening teardrop was filled with a captivating blend of decadence and glory, beauty and despair, loyalty and betrayal, resurrection and exploitation, blood and tears, fire and sword, jealousy and hatred... and a tragic love incomprehensible to the world. Sun Fei fell into a strange state. In a daze, an ancient and weathered emotion suddenly surged from the teardrop, roaring as if possessed by a vibrant soul, instantly invading Sun Fei's spiritual sea.

Sun Fei's expression changed.

This was a sudden and unexpected turn of events.

This sudden shift in consciousness, unprecedented in the previous six attempts to kill the corrupted Andariel using classes like Barbarian, Paladin, and Druid, left Sun Fei Sun Fei with no way to Avoid or resist. It instantly invaded his entire sea of consciousness, and then, in the next instant, something strange happened—

Before Sun Fei's eyes unfolded a series of events he had never experienced before, like watching a 3D movie.

A pitiful little girl, orphaned and alone, wandered the wilderness. Exhausted and starving, on the verge of death, she was taken in by a kind priest. From then on, this unfortunate girl lived in a monastery in the Tamoe Highlands. She was originally an ugly duckling, doing the dirtiest and hardest work just to earn a meal. But as the years passed, the ugly duckling unexpectedly transformed into a beautiful and dazzling swan. Even the most devout priest would be captivated during prayer, simply because of her smile. Soon, the little girl's name spread throughout the entire Rogue Continent; she became Goddess in the hearts of all men and the object of envy for all women.

The monastery, thanks to her beauty, developed rapidly and became an important force in Paradise's struggle against Hell.

During an important event at the monastery, thousands of men traveled to the Tamoe Highlands just to catch a glimpse of the girl's face. She appeared on the platform, and countless men cheered, but only one man in a red cloak turned and left... She remembered this man.

Then, something unfortunate happened.

During a prayer, an oil lamp fell from the church ceiling and struck the girl in the face, burning her eyes. The nuns, jealous of her beauty, delayed her treatment... She was disfigured. What followed was completely unexpected. Stripped of her beauty, she became a laughingstock across the continent. The little girl had lost her value to the church, and to survive, she was forced to return to the dirtiest, hardest, and even most menial jobs, living a life of ridicule and humiliation. Even the lowest-ranking mercenaries would laugh at her, saying, "Look, this ugly hag was once the most beautiful woman on the Rogue Continent..."

To hide the ugly scars on her face, she begged the blacksmith to make her a steel mask.

From then on, the most beautiful woman in the Rogue Continent could only live a humiliating life like a dog, wearing a black iron mask... until one day, a man wearing a red cloak appeared before the girl.

"Are you Andariel?" he asked in surprise.

She froze, then put the mask back on. How could this man still recognize her?

Your eyes are still so beautiful!

What a simple answer! Tears instantly welled up in the girl's heart. Beautiful—what a familiar yet strange word! How long had it been since she'd heard anyone say that to her? So her eyes were still beautiful after all...

"Do you want to restore your appearance?" the man asked.

"I want to... but how is that possible? Can you do it?" The girl smiled bitterly.

"Of course I can." The man removed his veil, releasing a terrifying power that caused the earth to tremble. "For I am Diablo, the King of Terror!"

The girl was shocked... Then, facing this legendary king of terror, she slowly regained her composure.

Then, the girl regained her appearance and possessed the powerful strength of a demon. She used her beauty and power to control the monastery, turning it into a demon land littered with corpses, a frontline battleground for Hell. She regained everything she had lost and became a fearsome female demon, almost destroying the Rogue Continent.

Yes, she fell in love with the King of Terror.

Unfortunately, this man did not love him, because he deeply loved his deceased wife.

For him, the girl put on the hat again, the one that had witnessed her beauty and glory, her fall and her tears... Then, she cultivated a poisonous art that could make her even stronger, just so she could help that man in the battle between Paradise and Hell.

The girl's name is Andariel.

Elena's predecessor, [ Flower of the Rogue ].

As an observer, Sun Fei witnessed firsthand the love story between Andariel, the former " Flower of the Rogue," and the demon lord of Hell. It was a strange journey of the soul; Sun Fei felt as if he had become Andariel, fully experiencing the emotional journey of this former " Flower of the Rogue "—the helplessness, the despair, the anger, the hatred, the sorrow, the sighs... In the end, Sun Fei couldn't help but sigh. This tragic woman, was she wrong?

This is fate.

Sun Fei even felt a little sorry for this woman he had already killed seven times.

The moment Sun Fei felt this emotion, something strange happened. The scene before him was as chaotic as shattered glass, then slowly reformed. A woman of breathtaking beauty, dressed in flowing white robes like a celestial being, appeared before Sun Fei — Sun Fei recognized her. This was the perfect Andariel before she cultivated the poison technique, now restored to her former beauty. At this moment, she was stunningly beautiful, almost blinding, the most beautiful woman Sun Fei had ever seen since his transmigration.

"Accept my gift, protect your woman. Every [ Flower of the Rogue ] will suffer unprecedented hardship. Young warrior, a great calamity is imminent. If you believe in love, protect her and do not let her repeat my mistakes!"

After the woman finished speaking, she flicked her sleeve, and her entire body was enveloped in a black light, disappearing without a trace. Where she vanished, a magnificent and incredibly powerful magical armor appeared.

Sun Fei was stunned.

This is a magic set.

A truly complete set, with no missing parts, possesses unprecedented power.

Third update.

That's all for today's third update.
