"Undead?"
Everyone was surprised as they looked in the direction of Dean. They saw the woman sitting quietly next to him. She was motionless. They felt a trace of strange and inexplicable chill.
Since it was Holly who asked, it was obviously not a simple question. Seven or eight lords who were sitting around Dean hurriedly got up. Some of them were in a hurry and almost tripped over the legs of the chair. Nevertheless, no one laughed at them. They looked at Dean and his female companion in bewilderment.
"Undead?" Losik, who was sitting next to Dean, was so scared that he almost fell on the grass. He looked at Dean in horror, but he saw that Dean was calm, as if he didn't want to explain anything. Losik wanted to get up and stay away from Dean, but he was afraid that he would anger Dean. He froze in place, and his hair stood on end.
"What is her identity? Do I need to answer you?" Dean calmly looked at Holly: "You only need to know that she is my female companion."
Holly slightly raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect Dean to have such a big tone. But he thought of Monica's words and Dean's attitude and tone at the moment. It was obvious that Dean acquiesced to the fact that his female companion was an undead. He didn't defend himself. Secondly, he didn't seem to be afraid of the fact that Holly would capture him.
His confident attitude coupled with Monica's speculation made Holly's eyes narrow. He knew that Monica's guess was most likely to be true. However, he was from the abyss. It was a bit self-deceiving to think that Holly could scare him with his attitude alone.
Holly glanced at the surrounding lords. He quietly looked at Dean: "Are you from here?"
Dean indifferently said: "Yes, I'm from another wall."
Dean knew that he couldn't continue to hide his identity when Aisha's identity was exposed. But even if it was exposed he wasn't worried about his own safety.
The lords who wanted to scold Dean for his attitude choked as they heard Dean's words. They looked at Dean in shock. They didn't expect that a person from another world would be sitting next to them. Although the lords didn't like to leave the giant wall, but they knew how dangerous the environment outside the giant wall was. Wasn't he also a walker of the abyss if he could cross the giant wall to come here?
While the lords were bewildered, Horaney chuckled and said, "I wonder what business Your Excellency has here?"
"I'm just passing by. I heard that you know about the ice worm. So I want to inquire about it. In my opinion, you have gathered so many cannon fodder to help you explore the way outside the giant wall. Most probably you don't have a full grasp of the ice worm. How about we cooperate and whoever finds it will get it?" Dean looked at Holly and Monica. He wasn't nervous at all.
His confident appearance made Holland and Monica frown. They were two abyss experts while Dean was alone. He dared to be so arrogant in a one versus two situation. Moreover they felt that since Dean was able to come to the banquet he had some understanding of the situation inside the giant wall. At least he knew that the wall lord wasn't present yet. They had three abyss experts on their side!
However, looking at Dean's appearance, it seemed that he didn't care.
Was it because of his magic marks that he was good at escaping?
Or was his strength beyond that of the abyss?
Thinking of these two points, Horani and Monica's expressions became a bit more serious. If it was the first kind, then it would be fine. He was good at escaping, but not necessarily good at fighting. At most, he could only disgust people. But if it was the second kind, then it would be very difficult to deal with.
Thinking of this, the two of them looked at each other and communicated with their eyes for a while. Monica shook her head slightly and signaled with her eyes.
Holly saw the trace of softness in her eyes and sighed in his heart. He wanted to test Dean but Monica refused to cooperate because there were many lords present. If they suddenly attacked Dean it would be too big of a movement. It was inevitable that the lords would be affected. Once these lords died there would be chaos in their territories.
The chaos of war would bring a lot of innocent civilian casualties. Holly didn't care about these. Usually he would think about it but in this special situation he was too lazy to care about it. Monica didn't want him to act alone. If Dean was the second possibility then he would suffer a big loss.
"Since you know the news then I have nothing to say. But we found this thing first. Why should we cooperate with you?" Holly's eyes were gloomy as he said in a cold voice.
The surrounding lords were the overlords of their territories. They were shocked when they saw Holly's reaction. They couldn't help but turn to look at Dean. But the next moment Dean's words made the lords go into an uproar.
"I'm also an abyss. Since I know about this thing then there is no reason to give up. At least you two can't make me give up even if the wall lord comes." Dean said calmly but his tone was very big. Although he hadn't fought against the abyss but he was confident that he wouldn't lose much. He was sure that the relationship between the three abyss wasn't that close. It was impossible for them to form an alliance to fight against him. After all, the ice worm was just a piece of news. They hadn't found the real thing yet so it was hard to say whether they could get it or not.
"He, he is an abyss?" Losik was shocked as he looked at Dean. He felt that he had overestimated Dean but he didn't expect that Dean was also an abyss. His identity was as noble as Holly's!
The other lords around them were also dumbfounded, subconsciously moving away from them.
Luo Sini and Loya were still sitting next to Dean with their father. But at the moment their pretty faces were full of astonishment. Although they hadn't participated in the territory's governance but at least they knew who the ruler of this world was. Especially Luo Sini. Her face turned from red to white as she thought of the words she had said to Dean. She was so scared that she broke into a cold sweat.
"So what if he is an abyss? Don't forget that both of us are abyss. Do you think you can win against two of us?" Holly sneered.
Dean glanced at him and said: "Is that so? Why haven't the two of you made a move? Are you afraid of affecting the other lords or are you not sure? Or are you not willing to fight alone to avoid getting injured? Since you've noticed my female companion, then you should know whether I'm fighting one against two. In my opinion, if either of you were to team up with me, it would be the strongest alliance here. How about it? Do you want to consider it? "
Holly and Monica's face slightly changed as they heard Dean's words. They glanced at Aisha next to them and their eyes flashed. Although they didn't know how Dean could make an Undead so obedient. But they knew the characteristics of an Undead. If a strong abyss was willing to cultivate an Undead then the power of an Undead would be beyond their imagination.
Both of their hearts trembled as they thought of this.
Holly's face changed for a moment: "You want to provoke us? Your method is too clumsy. No matter which one of us cooperates with you, we will be defeated by you in the end."
"It doesn't matter if the method is clumsy as long as the conditions are not bad." Dean chuckled: "I won't force the two of you. You can join me at any time if you are interested. Especially Mr. Holly. I'm very optimistic about you. After all, the news about the ice worm was found by your hunting group. You know the situation in more detail. Anyway, I think we can discuss about the partnership. How about it?"
