I Became the Demon King of Lust

Chapter 254: Raid dungeon (46)

The mummy leader recovered from its emotional state and turned back to look at me to say, "That is where you come in."

It grabbed me by the shoulders again and we walked back over to where the others were waiting.

After walking over, the mummy leader said, "We will gather everyone and attack tomorrow. When that comes, you will be the one leading them on my behalf while I take down that tyrant."

As it said this, it looked at the other mummy who had led us here and that mummy gave a nod.

It was clear that this was also an order for the mummy to pass down to everyone else.

After seeing this nod, the mummy leader turned back to look at me, as if it was waiting for my response.

I was silent for a bit before suddenly giving a moan.

The mummy leader revealed a surprised look when it heard this before it said, "Yes, we need to take everyone. Only if we take everyone will we have enough forces to keep them occupied while I fight their leader."

I shook my head before moaning again.

The mummy leader fell silent for a bit before saying, "You're right about that…but that is a risk that we have to take. If we don't do this now, we might not have a chance to do this."

The mummy leader gave a sigh before continuing, "Just as we are getting stronger, that tyrant is also getting stronger. As much as I hate to admit it, it is stronger than I am and it's only getting stronger. At this rate, we might not be able to fight it anymore."

I couldn't help being taken aback by this.

With the way that this mummy leader had been acting, I had thought that it was at the head of this raid dungeon. It had already taken over the rest of the monsters and was controlling everything.

But now it was telling me that this wasn't the case.

It seemed that there was another boss, the dungeon boss that had also been affected by whatever had affected this mummy leader. And it seemed that it had become even stronger than this mummy leader.

That was a very bad situation for us since it meant that there were two powerful monsters that we had to deal with…

But I did have a plan.

I had acted hesitant because I wanted to gain the mummy leader's trust, but in truth, I wanted them to fight each other. The more monsters that were involved, the better since that meant less enemies for us to face.

The more casualties there were, the less we would have to do when the time came.

So after putting on a show of resistance, I went from resisting this idea to supporting it with one more moan.

The mummy leader was surprised when he heard this moan before slowly saying, "You mean it?"

I gave a nod in response without saying anything.

The mummy leader looked at me in silence for a bit before suddenly letting out a sigh of relief. It patted me on the shoulder before saying, "It really is a relief having you on my side. The rest of them don't have the same mental capacity and only have simple thoughts, so it really is hard for me to come up with all of these ideas on my own.

But now that you're here, I finally have someone that I can share my thoughts with."

The mummy leader's voice became more and more excited as it said this.

It was clear that it was lonely and now that it had finally found someone that it could call an equal, it was giving them all the attention that it wanted to give to others.

But it was too bad for this mummy leader that…I was nothing more than a spy.

I wasn't here to help them, but to ruin them.

There would have been a small part of me that would have felt guilty about this, but I didn't actually feel anything as I lied to the mummy leader's face.

After all, in my mind, I had already labelled this mummy leader as a monster.

Separating it into a completely different group, I was able to completely cut myself off emotionally from this mummy leader and the rest of the mummies.

Of course, it also helped that there was this connection to the demon king…

I wanted to make sure that it wouldn't be traced back to me since I was actually a demon king…

After the mummy leader expressed its feelings to me for a while longer, it finally calmed down and explained the plan to me.

It was planning on attacking the third floor in two days.

During that time, it wanted me to train up the troops and prepare them for the fight.

While it didn't give any specific instructions on how to train the mummies, it did have high hopes for me.

However, that was a bad idea for me since I needed to leave the camp.

In the end, I was able to convince it to let me leave the camp again to look for some more stragglers to boost our forces. I would come back before the fight and do some quick training since it was impossible for this short term training to actually have any effect.

It did hesitate for a while, but I was able to convince it to let me go in the end.

But before I did leave, I made sure to leave a few instructions with the mummy that had led us.

To make it easier to distinguish this mummy, I had come up with a nickname for it.

Since it had some singed bandages from an unknown place, I decided to name it Singed in my mind.

With all of that set, it was time for us to head back and tell Tie Gang what had changed, as well as telling him the new plan that I had come up with.
