Holland and Monica looked calm, but their hearts were filled with anger. Yes, as Dean said, the provocation was very clumsy, but the conditions given by Dean were not clumsy. Now they were basically sure that Dean was an abyss level. Plus the Undead that was being controlled, it was possible that there were two abyss level forces. Moreover, these two forces were controlled by the same will!
But they were different. They couldn't achieve 100% unity. If the other party secretly cooperated with Dean then the search for the ice worm wouldn't be a problem. But if they used Dean to plan the layout of the giant wall then it would be really terrible.
The three-legged situation inside the giant wall had been formed for many years. Holland and Monica were close to each other. They knew that if one of them died then the remaining one would be swallowed by the wall lord.
But now there was an external force. Moreover this force was stronger than them and could even compete with the wall lord!
They knew that it was dangerous to cooperate with Dean and it was impossible for them to agree. But they had to say that because of Dean's words they were on guard against each other.
They were angry but they didn't want to fight with Dean on the spot. This was the capital. Once they fought then the damage would be incalculable. Moreover it would benefit the wall lord.
Holland said in a deep voice: "Don't talk about these things. As an intruder you better leave as soon as possible. Don't forget that we are not the only ones here. You may not be able to get a good result if we fight to the death."
Dean indifferently smiled. He said that he was an intruder to tell Monica that they were in the same camp and he wouldn't betray them. He also hoped that Monica wouldn't get confused. But he had expected it: "There are three of you including the wall lord. If you don't want to cooperate with me then I will cooperate with the wall lord and get rid of you. I don't know what the reward will be."
The pupils of Holland and Monica shrank. Their faces exuded a bit of coldness. Monica's cheeks, which had always been quiet and gentle, were completely cold at this moment. "It is impossible for the wall lord to cooperate with you. Instead of cooperating with you, it is better to maintain our current situation. Don't think that you can provoke us. You have ulterior motives. How can the wall lord collude with outsiders to murder his own people?"
"That's true." His attitude made Monica frown. Dean continued: "I don't plan to cooperate with the wall lord for the time being. I just want to get the ice worm. You two are just leading the way. Whoever gets it will get it. It's a fair thing. I'm the same as you so I hope you won't give me face right?"
Holland and Monica were relieved when they saw that Dean didn't mention about cooperating with the wall lord. As for Dean's words, they didn't think that it was a big problem. Not to mention that there was an unfathomable undead beside Dean. Even if Dean was alone he was qualified to join them.
After thinking for a moment, Holland slowly said: "We need to discuss this matter. I will give you a reply tomorrow."
Dean glanced at him: "Do you think I'm a fool? Moreover, do you think you are qualified to talk to me about conditions? Don't forget that this is your lair, not mine. Don't you think the wall lord will have a headache because of one … Oh no … two abyssal devils. Do you really want to force me to make the capital feel comfortable? "
Their faces slightly changed as their eyes turned gloomy. Indeed, half of the reason why they were worried about Dean was because of this point. If they couldn't kill Dean on the spot then Dean would be in the dark and they would be in the light. They could protect themselves but they may not be able to protect the civilians inside the wall. Especially the forces under their faction and their own forces.
In addition to these they had wives, children and parents.
These relatives were their fetters. Although for both of them they might not be able to use their relatives to threaten the wall lord but they knew that the wall lord would definitely bow his head!
After all, if the wall lord's children were obliterated then the wall lord's position would be a big problem!
"Well, I promise you that we will set off now to look for the ice worm together. I will provide you with the clues." Holland thought for a moment and immediately agreed. His decisiveness was surprising.
Monica tilted her head and looked at him. Her eyes flashed as she suddenly understood something. She didn't object but silently looked at Dean.
"Smart. Saves time." Dean praised: "Gather everyone and get ready to go. If we don't hurry up and wait for the news to reach the ears of that person. Who knows what will happen?"
The corner of Horaney's mouth trembled slightly, and he said indifferently, "You don't have to worry about that."
He turned to the stunned Hikari and said, "Gather everyone at the south gate. The three of us will go there first."
Hikari was stunned for a few seconds but responded: "Yes." After that, he glanced at Dean who was not far away. His heart jumped twice. He didn't expect that there was an abyss expert lurking under his eyelids. It was as if there was a poisonous python entrenched in his bed. It made people feel cold.
Wero who was in the crowd was scared. His face was pale as he thought about the words he had said yesterday. His heart was about to explode. Several lords who had a good relationship with him stayed away from him for fear of attracting Dean's attention.
"How should I address you?" Horani turned to Dudian.
"Dean."
"Well, Mr. Dean, let's go first. We'll prepare at the south gate." Horani said.
Dean nodded and led Aisha to get up.
Holland and Monica didn't say much. They came over to communicate with the lords to appease their hearts. But Dean's previous words about gathering cannon fodder made them not want to say anything more. They just wanted to leave as soon as possible. He wasn't afraid of the lords reneging on their words. After all, everyone could see how bad their mood was at the moment. It was absolutely asking for trouble.
The two of them flew up and went back the way they came.
Dark mucus flowed out of the Splitter on Dean's back, forming a brand on his back. Soon, the brand turned into a solid object. Two ferocious wings composed of countless blades stretched out, overturning the surrounding chairs. He grabbed Aisha and soared into the sky. Soon, he caught up with Horani and Monica, leaving behind a shocked expression on the faces of the lords.
