By the side of the fortress of the second defensive line.

A relatively large refugee camp has already been set up here, inhabited entirely by civilians who have lost their homes and loved ones from within the first defensive line.

They have been temporarily settled here, being sent in batches daily behind the second defensive line.

Due to the combination of the remaining soldiers from the first defensive line and the soldiers from the second defensive line, their forces are still quite ample, able to keep the demons far away in front of the second defensive line.

The demons have just exhausted a considerable number of monsters within the first defensive line and are currently recovering, not having much energy to launch a full-scale attack on the rear defenses.

In the refugee camp, Mili is standing in line with her aunt in a long queue.

They are currently queuing to receive the food and clear water distributed to them.

The long queue makes Mili a bit bored, and she can't help but recall that team of brothers and sisters who saved her.

Especially that pretty winged sister, if it weren't for her, Mili would still be constantly remembering her lost mother and good friends.

Although now at night she sometimes still remembers and cries secretly under the covers.

But every time this happens, she can't help but remember the voice of the sister, which makes her stronger.

It's said that after leaving with her, they went to help more lives, since Mili and her group were the first civilians to be rescued, so they are considered the first batch of temporary residents in this refugee camp.

Many of the civilians who came in later seem to know about that team of brothers and sisters. They all say that it's thanks to their help that they survived, and they are very grateful to them.

They are indeed the most powerful.

Tomorrow, she and her aunt will leave this place to go to a farther area, and Mili still wants to see them one last time, fearing she might not see them anymore.

Mili and her aunt watched from a distance as there was suddenly some commotion and looked curiously in that direction.

Only to see these civilians rushing towards the camp's exit, the gate of the fortress, cheering about something.

Many people in the queue in front didn't line up anymore and ran over together.

"I heard that the team of Divine Gifted Warriors is back, let's go take a look."

It's Sister Lulu and them, they are back.

Many of the civilians here were rescued by Kane and his team, like heavenly soldiers descending in their most extreme peril.

The feeling of being pulled back from the edge of death made these civilians regard Kane and his team, who are powerful enough to slaughter demons as if they were mere chickens and dogs, as warriors sent by the gods.

Therefore, Kane and his team earned the title of Divine Gifted Warriors.

Hearing this news, Mili's eyes were filled with joy, and she couldn't help but tug at her aunt's sleeve.

Her aunt certainly knew what Mili wanted to do; she squatted down, looked at her, smiled, and then picked her up: "Let's go, little Mili, let's see the benefactors."

Saying that she started to run, following these civilians towards the city gate.

On the other side.

After a night's rest, Kane and his team took a morning to return to the fortress of the defensive line.

On the way, they encountered numerous knights and soldiers who saluted them; although puzzled, they didn't think much of it, so they didn't dwell on it.

It wasn't until now, when they were about to enter the fortress, that they were noticed by the civilians repairing defenses on the side.

Then the civilians shouted, attracting more to crowd around, surrounding them in the center.

The look in their eyes was filled with gratitude, and some even had feverish expressions.

"Divine Gifted Warriors, thank you for your help."

"Thank you, thank you, I thought I would never see my child again."

"This is my most precious necklace, please accept it."

"Warrior, I love you."

"Praise be to the gods..."

The fervent emotions of the crowd left Kane and his team unable to cope, as they had never experienced such a scene.

Some bold young women even reached out to touch Kane.

Crowded in the middle, Kane had to use magic power to construct a transparent steel wall to surround and shield themselves from the continuously approaching civilians.

"What should we do? Kane."

Facing Kreya's question, Kane couldn't think of a solution for a moment.

He could only shout loudly to the civilians: "You don't have to do this; it's our duty to save you and face the demons. We're here precisely for this purpose.

We've come here to annihilate all those monsters that harmed you. Seeing you all standing here unharmed shows that our efforts have not been in vain after so many days.

We are a bit exhausted from so many days of battle; could you please make way so that we can enter and rest properly, so we might have the strength to help more people."

Hearing Kane's words, the fervent civilians calmed down, and in response to Kane's explanation, they also tempered their excitement.

Afterward, they shouted more words of gratitude toward Kane and his team before each leaving, making a path leading inside the fortress for them.

Seeing that his words had an effect, Kane dismantled the transparent steel wall that was blocking them and quickly entered the fortress along the path cleared.

Upon entering the city gate, they saw soldiers on duty around standing upright, saluting them solemnly with fists to their chests.

Then a knight approached actively, taking the horses from them.

Commander Sakerem, who had already heard the news and waited for some time, came up, followed by the previous female knight and Saintess behind him.

There were also many previous captains from the teams rescued by Kane and his group.

Commander Sakerem came in front of Kane, pounded his heart with his right hand, and bowed respectfully to Kane and his team.

Those knights and captains behind him followed suit.

Kane stepped forward and helped him up: "Commander Sakerem, there's no need for this."

"This is a tribute to your actions and a proper salute from the civilians and soldiers rescued by you; your assistance to us is so significant that no thanks would suffice."

He pulled out a square iron plaque from his bosom, with mysterious inscriptions and several ornate patterns that Kane couldn't understand.

"This is the only reward I can offer; your squad is now honorary commanders of the Wall Legion. In times of need and emergency, you can freely command our soldiers."

He didn't care whether Kane wanted it or not and directly stuffed it into Kane's arms forcefully.

"There will be a brief banquet tonight; we hope you can attend."

Helpless, Kane accepted the plaque, nodded, and said, "Okay, we will arrive on time tonight."
