I Became the Demon King of Lust

Chapter 237: Raid dungeon (29)

As the mood of despair hung over the group, Tie Gang suddenly said something.

"What do we do now?"

One could hear the frustrated and desperate tone in his voice, but they understood why he sounded this way.

However, all of them were feeling the same way, so there weren't really any ideas that they had to give.

After all, not a single one of them could think of a way to deal with those monsters and the wall that they had erected. They could have taken it down, but there was no knowing what was waiting for them behind it.

So even if they did take it down, it could be possible that they were just heading into a trap.

No one dared to give a suggestion in a situation like this.

Tie Gang could see the looks on everyone's faces and knew what they were feeling, but he didn't blame them.

However, that didn't mean that he could give up as well.

He was their leader and it was his job to get them through this, so at the very least, he had to stay firm and try to lead them.

After a long silence, Tie Gang was about to say something…but someone else spoke first.

It was me.

I spoke before him.

"I have an idea."

As soon as I said this, everyone turned to look at me with different expressions.

There were looks of doubt, there were looks of curiosity, and there were a few looks of trust that were happy to see that I had an idea.

Tie Gang was one of those that trusted me, so he said, "What's your idea?"

I took a deep breath and said, "We don't have any information, that's why we're afraid to act, right?"

There were some people that looked at me like I was just stating the obvious.

Everyone was able to see that this was the current situation, so they didn't feel like there was a need to say this out loud.

For those that thought that I was stating the obvious, it was clear that they were hostile. It was as if they thought that I was looking down on them by saying this.

But I just ignored them since it didn't matter right now what they thought.

The important thing was getting out of this situation.

Tie Gang said with a nod, "That's right."

I took another deep breath and said, "Then let's get that information."

"Huh?" Everyone looked at me like I was dumb.

It was obvious that we should be gathering information about this, but once again this was just stating the obvious.

They looked at me like they were trying to figure out if I was being serious or not. Or if I was just making fun of them at this point.

But Tie Gang didn't take it the wrong way and asked, "What do you mean by that?"

I once ignored all the gazes that came in my direction and said, "I want to go with my team and sneak in to get information on the enemy."

Tie Gang deeply knitted his brows when he heard this.

It was the same for the others, but there were a few that were slow in reacting. There were also a few of them that seemed to reveal happy looks when they heard this.

All of this didn't escape my eyes. Enjoy reading on m,v|le|mp|yr

After a long silence, Tie Gang said, "What you're proposing is very dangerous."

I gave a nod in response, but I still said, "But it has to be done or else we won't be able to do a thing. I know for sure that my group will be able to do it."

Tie Gang fell silent once more, but the silence was shorter this time.

He reached into his pocket and pulled out a necklace that he handed me before saying, "This is a Ward of Detection. It will help keep the monsters from noticing you as you sneak in."

The fact that he gave me this already meant that he supported my idea.

There were a few people that seemed like they wanted to say something, but they quickly closed their mouths. After all, they knew that they would be the next ones on the chopping block if they tried to speak against this and they didn't have anything to show for it.

So the only thing that they could do now was let me take the heat while it gave them time to think.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Tie Gang didn't bother saying anything else as he patted me on the shoulder and said, "Good luck, we're counting on you."

I simply gave a nod before walking towards my group.

Of course we would have a talk before leaving to decide how we would do this and the others respected this, so they left us alone.

As I was walking off, I made sure to keep the corners of my eyes on the others.

Of course I hadn't done this for no reason, there was a very important reason for me throwing myself out like this. Actually, there were two important reasons for me to do this.

One was why I had spoken in such a deliberate tone.

I was clearly trying to make my words as dumb as possible to trigger the others.

I wanted to see who was still hostile towards me and it had been quite easy with this. After all, there were people who just couldn't hold themselves back and made their disdain for me quite clear.

These were the people that I would have to look out for later.

The second reason was more of a personal reason and the more important one.

It was because I had felt something special when the monsters had appeared earlier.

It wasn't something that I was able to recognize right away, but after a while, I was able to recognize it.

It was similar to the aura that I felt from Lilith when she appeared.

It was the aura of a demon king.
