Dungeon Player

In the dark cage, a man covered in bruises and with a deformed spine lay motionless. If it weren't for the slight rise and fall of his chest, everyone who saw this scene would have thought he was dead.

The sound of footsteps came from outside. A fat human being followed several guards and walked all the way through the dark passage.

No one spoke, except for the fat man, who walked several times in front of the iron cage and asked the guard next to him:

"How long has this been going on?"

"It has been like this since he came here. Unless he wants to move, there is no way we can make him move. If he lies down to sleep, no one can wake him up, or in other words, he doesn't want to wake up. I never I have never seen anyone with such a strong will!"

The guard said with a frightened expression.

"kindness……"

The fat man nodded and said nothing. At this time, a guard on the side came over and whispered:

"Master, the best swordsmanship coach in the city has arrived."

"Well, let him come in."

The fat man ordered, and soon a tall and thin man with a mustache came in. It was obvious that he was the best swordsmanship instructor in the city.

"grown ups."

The swordsmanship coach saluted the fat man, and the fat man nodded and said:

"I need you to train this man. He has a strong will and will become a very powerful warrior!"

"I understand, my lord."

The swordsmanship instructor said respectfully.

"Woo..."

"Sir! Ah Fei is awake!"

Just when the fat man was about to leave, the guard suddenly shouted to him. The man turned around excitedly and saw the bruised Ah Fei standing up, with determination on his face:

"So what's the mission today? Did you survive another beating?"

"No, boy, today's mission is to defeat me in every way you can think of!"

The swordsman with a mustache said so.

————————

Goblin intelligence agent Bond got the shocking news from Cherry, and then passed this information to the Merchant Alliance. Not long after, the Merchant Alliance wrote a letter to Count Nicholas.

"Suggest that I investigate the treasures of the Sighing Wilderness?!"

Since becoming the Lord of Winterfell, Nicholas has learned many secrets that he didn't know before. Of course, he also has many more worries, such as this sudden letter of advice.

Although the suggestion in the letter is only to investigate the treasure in the Wilderness of Sighs, it is obvious from the current information that Lord Sherlock is also very interested in the treasure in the Wilderness of Sighs, and even he took the initiative to accept this request. For this, right?

Nicholas doesn't want to be an enemy of Sir Sherlock. After all, he is a high-ranking devil with an extremely rich family background. Maybe his father is the devil? Maybe the previous Samael incident was just a fight with his uncle?

What's more, Nicholas has never heard of the place Sighing Wilderness!

As for this letter, it is most likely to frame him. If he does not investigate the Sighing Wilderness, the Merchant Alliance will definitely show up by then - Nicholas is more concerned about the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon than the interests of the Merchant Alliance. Interests!

But if we go to investigate, the relationship with Lord Sherlock will inevitably deteriorate. What should we do now?

Just when Nicholas was worried, Lord Sherlock, who was always good at helping others, had already come to his office.

"Lord Nicholas, Lord Sherlock is waiting to see you outside."

Nicholas' beastman assistant knocked on the door and said so.

What? Lord Sherlock is here?

Nicholas quickly collected the letters he received, and then walked towards the door, saying:

"Where is Lord Sherlock?"

He opened the door, and immediately saw his beastman assistant, standing outside the room with Sherlock.

"Lord Sherlock?!"

"I haven't seen you for a few days. Lord Nicholas still looks as good as before."

Sherlock looked at the pale and bloodless face of Vampire Count Nicholas, and then asked:

"May I come inside?"

"Of course, go and make a cup of tea for Lord Sherlock."

Sherlock walked into Nicholas' office, the two sat down, and Sherlock said straight to the point:

"Actually, when I came here this time, I wanted to tell Lord Nicholas one thing. The task of clearing the ogre fortress has been basically completed. Although there are still a small number of ogres occupying the depths of the fortress, Even if you fight hard, you won’t pose much of a threat, but..."

"Ah, Lord Sherlock, don't worry! I, and all the people of Winterfell, will remember the painful price paid by the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon in order to clear out the ogre fortress. Of course, the pension has already been paid. I'm ready, please don't worry, Lord Sherlock."

Nicholas said quickly.

"Ah, regarding this, I have complete confidence in you, City Lord Nicholas, but that's not what I want to say." Sherlock said melancholy:

"Actually, while we were fighting the ogres in the eternal kingdom dungeon, a group of humans, together with goblins and elves, quietly came to the vicinity of the ogre fortress and established a stronghold."

"I wanted to clear out the fallen human camp at the beginning, but their leader was a duchess named Lilo. She was too powerful. Our first wave of attacks was completely defeated by this group called Victoria. The humans have been defeated, but don’t worry, out of goodwill towards Winterfell, we will fight this group of humans to the end, and no additional compensation will be charged for those who died during this period.”

After Sherlock finished speaking, Nicholas was surprised:

"No, no pension fee? But Sir Sherlock..."

"No need to say anything, I know your good intentions, City Lord, but this is no longer just a matter of Winterfell, but a matter of the entire underground world. As a responsible, ideal and ambitious young high-ranking devil, the City Lord of the Underground City , I feel the need to be more obligated to help the underground world fight against the human camp."

Sherlock spoke righteously and interrupted Nicholas who was about to speak:

"Needless to say, City Lord Nicholas, this matter is completely taken care of by me! Of course, I am also a little selfish. Those trophies of humans, goblins and elves belong completely to our eternal kingdom dungeon. There is no problem, right? ?”

"Of course there is no problem! Sir Sherlock, you are really touching. You are able to do this for the sake of the underground world. I am really ashamed. If I hadn't just become the city lord, many things would not have happened yet. If things stabilize, I will definitely follow you, Lord Sherlock, to drive out all the human goblins and elves who have invaded our underground world from our home!"

With tears in his eyes, Nicholas silently took out the letter and said with sobs:

"Actually, the Merchant Alliance is already aware of your recent actions, and has also conducted some additional investigations. However, Sir Sherlock, don't worry. This is definitely not the opinion of most of the top leaders of the Merchant Alliance. It's just some people who don't want me to become the city lord. , or it’s just a small move by someone with ulterior motives. By the way, Lord Sherlock, have you seen any suspicious people recently?”

Sherlock took the letter from Nicholas's hand, and after reading a little bit, he touched his chin and said helplessly:

"Tsk, there seems to be nothing wrong with this reasoning at first glance..."

"Ah? What did you say, Lord Sherlock?"

"Ah, I mean, I didn't expect the people who oppose you, City Lord, within the Merchant Alliance to be so vicious. But City Lord Nicholas, you can rest assured that the care between the two of us will never be shaken by this. The Eternal Kingdom and The relationship between Winterfell will never change."

Sherlock said quickly with a smile.

"Of course!" Nicholas said confidently.

"Of course, I also need to give some explanations for this. The so-called Sighing Wilderness is definitely not a treasure place, but we just named the wasteland near the Ogre Fortress like this for convenience. The group of people from The fallen guys from the surface world seem to be planning to occupy the Sighing Wilderness as their camp. The reason may be that the minerals there are relatively rich, and the location of the fortress is also very suitable for defense, and it has a wide field of vision. I guess it is like this Reason, but don’t worry, there are not many of them, I can definitely handle them.”

After Sherlock finished speaking, Nicholas also breathed a sigh of relief:

"I feel relieved after Lord Sherlock said this. Then I will report this matter and clear up this misunderstanding. By the way, Lord Sherlock, do you really not need our help in Winterfell?"

"No, Winterfell has just suffered a disaster, and the situation has not stabilized yet. Let's wait until it stabilizes. After all, no one will be the city lord, and no one will be more happy than you, Nicholas, the city lord. If this makes you If we get into trouble, it will not be a good thing for our Eternal Kingdom Dungeon."

"I understand. Then Sir Sherlock, you must be more careful. If you need reinforcements from me, just tell me directly. In addition, although you don't want the pension, I still decided to personally contribute some money to support Sir Sherlock. Weapons and equipment, please don’t refuse!”

Nicholas had a firm look on his face, and Sherlock couldn't refuse anything, so he nodded awkwardly:

"There's really nothing I can do about you, okay, okay. By the way, more Beastmen standards. I will start recruiting Beastmen soon."
