In stark contrast, Nick felt very uneasy. To him, anti-magic materials were incredibly rare and valuable. Even the Angel Guild would struggle to amass enough of these materials to create such a heavy door. Moreover, members of the Angel Guild generally believed that anti-magic materials were used to construct seals for magical formations.

A door made entirely of anti-magic materials could very well be the core of a seal for a magical formation, which meant that opening it might unleash an exceptionally terrifying monster.

"I think we should exercise more caution! There could be something extremely dangerous behind that door! Just the two of us might not be able to defeat whatever lies beyond it!" Nick urged.

However, his warnings fell on deaf ears. Irving shook his head. "I understand your concerns, but the castle is the most critical area for us. We are about to relocate the shelter into the castle, and we need to eliminate all potential threats within it."

After saying this, Irving stepped up to the door. He first tapped it lightly with his staff. When the staff made contact, there was no sound, indicating that the seal on the door was very strong.

"Step back a few paces; I\'m going to cast a powerful spell directly at this door," Irving instructed, ensuring Nick was in a safe position.

Then, Irving used the **Staff of Calamity** to unleash a formidable Fireball. Enhanced by the Taikoo Flame Pearl and chaotic energy, the massive fireball hurtled towards the door made entirely of anti-magic materials.

The moment the fireball struck the door, all of its energy was absorbed by the door itself. Remarkably, the door showed no signs of change or damage.

Seeing this, Irving couldn\'t help but exclaim, "It seems the being that constructed this door must be incredibly powerful. My recent attack had no effect on it, which means this door cannot be opened easily."

Hearing Irving\'s words, Nick let out a slight sigh of relief. Since Irving couldn\'t open the door, it meant they didn\'t have to worry about the monsters lurking behind it.

"In that case, let\'s head back to the surface. With this door here, whatever monsters are behind it won\'t pose a threat to us," Nick said as he walked toward the teleportation lift.

However, Irving did not agree with Nick\'s suggestion. He continued to stare at the door, deep in thought. After a moment, an alternative idea struck him.

"Maybe we\'ve been approaching this all wrong? Perhaps we shouldn\'t try to force our way through the door?" Irving said with a smile as he turned to Nick.

Nick was puzzled by Irving\'s meaning and simply looked at him with a confused expression.

Irving pulled out a vial containing werewolf blood from his pocket. "As far as I know, the Werewolf God possesses some degree of divine power. Could using werewolf blood activate the divine energy within the anti-magic materials? We might be able to open the door from the inside."

After expressing his thoughts, Irving immediately set to work. The moment the werewolf blood dripped onto the door, it emitted a creaking sound.

Then, to Irving\'s delight, the door slowly began to open.

However, there was no light beyond the door, and an eerie howling echoed from within.

As the door swung open, Nick felt an overwhelming sense of danger in the atmosphere. He took several steps back and quickly retreated into the teleportation lift.

"Don\'t take any more risks! There must be something incredibly terrifying behind that door! Didn\'t you hear those howls?" Nick urged, hoping to dissuade Irving from advancing further.

But Nick\'s pleas were in vain; Irving waved him off. "The monsters beyond that door could indeed pose a threat to us. That\'s precisely why we need to take this opportunity to eliminate them!"

With that, Irving stepped past the threshold of the door.

Before long, his figure completely vanished into the darkness.

Faced with this turn of events, Nick found himself at a loss for what to do next.

Nick could have returned directly, but doing so would mean abandoning Irving. However, if he followed Irving into the unknown beyond the door, they were sure to encounter significant dangers. After a long internal struggle, Nick finally clenched his teeth and decided to follow Irving into the fray.

"Wait for me! I\'m willing to take this risk with you!" he shouted as he rushed towards the door.

As he crossed the threshold, Nick suddenly felt the darkness around him encroaching, almost as if it were trying to consume him. This sensation reminded him of his earlier battle with Elder Howard. It became clear that the darkness behind the door was not merely the absence of light; it was a manifestation of dark power.

In this oppressive darkness, Nick\'s progress was agonizingly slow. However, it wasn\'t long before he found Irving, who stood just a short distance ahead, staring blankly into the abyss.

"Why are you stopping here? Is there really something terrifying ahead?" Nick whispered, lowering his voice.

Irving glanced back at Nick, signaling him to be quiet. Seeing the gesture, Nick immediately silenced himself.

He then turned to look in the direction Irving was observing. Amid the darkness, he could see faint glimmers of light. After careful examination, Nick realized those twinkling lights were the eyes of countless monsters.

There were numerous creatures staring directly at him and Irving, their eyes fixed in their direction. In that instant, Nick felt his heart nearly stop.

"Don\'t worry, I can ensure your safety. As long as we don\'t make too much noise, they won\'t attack us," Irving\'s voice suddenly echoed in Nick\'s mind.

Nick was taken aback to find that Irving could communicate with him telepathically.

He then began to respond mentally. "What should we do now? Are we supposed to retreat back outside the door? If we do that, I think they will definitely attack us."

"You\'re right, which is why I\'m standing still," Irving replied, adding to Nick\'s anxiety.

"Let\'s observe the surroundings for a moment. Maybe we can quickly find a way out from here. You\'re correct; it\'s incredibly dangerous beyond the door," Irving acknowledged.

While Irving\'s recognition of the threat did not offer much comfort to Nick, it did underscore the gravity of their situation.

Both of them had already stepped into a highly dangerous area, and there was no need for further discussion. As Irving and Nick observed their surroundings, a massive creature was rapidly approaching from the depths of the darkness.

The sound of the gigantic monster moving echoed ominously in the air. Both of their heart rates escalated simultaneously. They both knew that they were about to face unimaginable danger.

At this critical moment, Irving quickly made a decision. "We can\'t take on that behemoth! So immediately follow my orders! Run!"

The instant he gave the command, Irving sprinted toward the door as fast as he could. Nick followed right behind him, matching his speed.

As they fled, swarms of monsters surged toward them. Though the door wasn\'t too far away, the monsters were closing in quickly. Just as Irving crossed through the doorway, one of the creatures reached the entrance.

Faced with this dire situation, Irving had no choice but to throw a rare item he possessed into the area behind the door. A worn-out doll was cast into the darkness.

Immediately, the movements of all the monsters slowed significantly. Taking advantage of this moment, Irving yanked Nick out of harm\'s way. After pulling Nick through the door, they slammed it shut together.

At that instant, Irving caught a glimpse of the massive creature approaching them. It was a spider-like monster, possessing an extraordinarily powerful dark force. The creatures they had just encountered were merely the offspring of this giant spider.

The area behind the door was teeming with dark monsters. The depths of the castle had become a lair for these sinister beings.

As Irving began to grasp the situation, the weight of pressure intensified. "Our next actions might very well fail. We\'re not just up against the Night Blades; we also have to contend with the dark creatures lurking beneath the castle."

Once they returned to safety, Irving couldn\'t help but express his thoughts. Nick offered no response, as he hadn\'t yet regained his composure.

During their escape, Nick had witnessed horrendous scenes—visions of himself being torn apart by numerous dark monsters. Such terrifying imagery had struck a blow to his psyche, causing his movements to slow considerably as they neared the door. If it hadn\'t been for Irving pulling him out, Nick would have already been devoured by the horde of dark creatures.

"How are you holding up? If you\'re feeling really bad, you should return to the real world to rest. We don\'t need your help here for the moment," Irving suggested, noticing Nick\'s deteriorating condition. He intended to send Nick back to the real world, where he could at least recover.
