Leonard Churchill had previously seen in Mage Rolan’s manuscript that the content on the totem poles probably recorded descriptions related to “Space”.

After walking for a bit, he was almost certain that the so-called “Demon Secret Passage” was indeed a spatial teleportation array.

The totem poles scattered throughout the cave were all elements of the teleportation array.

Leonard was stealthily creeping along, extremely cautious as he followed the Little Demons inside.

He kept an eye on the Demon Pointer, deliberately avoiding areas with significant value fluctuations.

So far, the journey had been smooth.

However, as he moved forward, Leonard’s gaze suddenly hardened.

For he saw several living humans emerging from the cave!

“Are there actually humans in the Demon’s Lair?”

Before Leonard even had time to be surprised,

he heard those humans muttering a few sentences in Demon’s language.

Then, he finally understood

that these were not humans.

They were Demons disguised as humans!

In Mage Rolan’s manuscript, it mentioned a cunning type of Demon called Pishtako, which could use human skins to disguise themselves as a living human.

“So, this is why the human corpses were brought back to their headquarters…”

Looking at these “humans”, Leonard felt strangely familiar with their skin-changing technique.

However, watching these Demons move freely in the cave,

a bolder idea suddenly popped into his mind!

He transformed into a werewolf and sniffed. The Demons had completely human scents.

Otherwise, they certainly could not deceive the people in the fortress.

Having confirmed this, a cunning smile appeared in Leonard’s eyes: “Heh, it’s quite convenient now.”

Despite his successful infiltration so far, this was, after all, a Demon’s Lair, with far more danger than meets the eye.

The Relic Hider could hide most scents but it couldn’t necessarily fool those Demons with a keen sense of smell, such as the high tier Hellhound.

Moreover, Leonard was pretty sure that there were ways to detect stealth targets in some key places in this headquarters.

Mage Rolan’s manuscript had recorded several kinds of Demons that can detect hidden targets.

Like the threads of a Hell Spider, the song of a Wailing Banshee, the mud of a Sand Demon…

All these were perfect counters to visual stealth techniques.

Had Leonard not read the manuscript beforehand, he might have walked right in only to be discovered without knowing how.

Despite being aware of all this, the risk was merely reduced, not eliminated.

Originally, Leonard could only be more careful but he still couldn’t avoid those Demons with special abilities to sense him.

However, things were different now.

Avoid?

Nope.

Not necessary.

If he couldn’t avoid them anyway, he might as well make a bigger move!

With this thought in mind, Leonard quickly removed his cloak and all his equipment.

Like the Demons that had just changed their skins, he walked into the cave with his upper body uncovered.

In the guise of a human, he brazenly walked in!

Little Demons, Big Demons, and the like were of low intelligence.

Seeing an additional “person” all of a sudden, their first reaction would be that it was a skin-changed Pishtako, and they would not care at all.

Even if some higher intelligence Demons sensed something was off, seeing such an ordinary “human”, they would never guess that a human would dare to stride into the forbidden area so boldly.

Relying on this seemingly “crazy” method, Leonard surprisingly managed to get inside successfully!

He had been very careful just moments ago, but there was no need for that now.

After going deeper into the cave, he indeed encountered several Wailing Banshees squatting at some crossroads singing.

If he had truly entered stealthily, he would have been discovered immediately.

It was as if he had passed numerous layers of security checks, without the Demons sensing anything wrong.

So Leonard went deeper and deeper.

Soon, he entered a cave heavily filled with the smell of blood..
