Chapter 326: Entrance

Lancelot accepted Lilo’s mission to be an escort and a supervisor.

Would anyone expect the half-naked and merry gamers who put clay into their mouths to have any combat power?

The three Hamsters were guides who would lead the way. After arranging the accommodation of Lancelot, Untouchable, Hill, The King, and Baldhead, they started doing a headcount of the laborers.

It was already midnight, but the group of Humans, Fairies, and Elves weren’t sleepy. While Lancelot and the three Hamsters were looking for manpower, more gamers gathered and requested to help in transporting the materials.

It was Lancelot’s first time encountering laborers risking their lives at midnight enthusiastically.

He guessed that they probably had great ambitions and goals, else they wouldn’t be so passionate.

They chose thousands of gamers to help with transportation, and the contingent set off for the materials.

…

Under the lead of the three Hamsters, they arrived after walking for more than two hours. It was a sloping cave that was near the forest of Victoria City.

Though it wasn’t a long journey, Lancelot felt tired because the citizens of Victoria chatted too much.

Even though Lancelot told them many times, “There are many wild beasts and bandits in the wilderness. For your safety, please keep quiet.”

But it was of no use. They would only keep quiet for a maximum of three minutes before they would continue chatting. The sound level would be like mosquitos buzzing before escalating to thunderous proportions.

Lancelot gave up after failing to restrain these insane chatting gamers.

They weren’t worried about their lives. He had reminded them of the consequences, but it was in vain.

The feeling was like bringing out a group of children on an excursion, only, there were thousands of children with only a single teacher.

It was a hopeless feeling.

“It’s right below.” Big Boss pointed at the swirling energy vortex in the dark cave.

Lancelot instinctively shouted, “Wait, is this a tunnel into the Underworld? This is beyond our control. We have to ask the Holy Church to deal with this!”

Lancelot felt the gamers quiet down. Then, one of the gamers shouted, “Gosh, Underworld? Is the Faction War starting so soon?”

“Don’t stop me, I’ll kill those dogs from Eternal Kingdom.”

“We have a blood feud!”

“Can we go in? I can’t wait!”

Lancelot almost fainted when he heard the gamers. They were originally peace-loving creatures, but now they were shouting to invade the Underworld, kill Sherlie, imprison Evelynn, and raid Winterfell.

Lancelot scolded the gamers before he controlled them. The gamers looked in anticipation at Lancelot, but he was not bothered. He said in a loud voice, “Do you have a misunderstanding about the Underworld? Do you think the Underworld is a peaceful and friendly place? Let me tell you, they have the cruelest Gnomes who kill and rob all your valuables!”

Someone whispered, “The game AI is taunting the gamers directly?”

“I don’t know, but I felt delighted when he said that.”

“Gosh, me too.”

Lancelot observed that they were happy instead of fearful, so he quickly said, “And those evil superior Devils, they only know about destruction, chaos, and calamity. Any of the superior Devils will be able to conquer and enslave us. They will kill all of our family members and children while the world descends into a living inferno. This isn’t a joke. If you don’t realize the seriousness of the matter, you’ll become the sinners of the world! Now, give way so I can return and report to Duchess Lilo. It’s impossible for the materials to appear in the Underworld, we can’t open the door to the Underworld!”

Lancelot finished his speech, but before him, the three Hamsters were ordering the gamers to enter the tunnel. They didn’t seem to hear Lancelot’s words.

“Wait, you can’t…”

Lancelot wanted to stop them, but Big Boss came out and said, “Enough, we know that you’re nervous, but our materials are inside, and I guarantee that it’s safe.”

After some thought, Big Boss said, “For the time being.”

Lancelot had severe doubts, but he thought of a possibility. Perhaps they were using the Underworld tunnel as a secret transportation route. Sherlock and Duchess Lilo were no simple characters. They had the means to summon thousands of diligent workers from the Teleport Portals. Could a mundane creature do that?

“Do you want to join us? You may wait outside if you want,” Big Boss said as he walked into the Underworld entrance and looked at the hesitating Lancelot.

Lancelot gritted his teeth and walked in.

They weren’t afraid, so Lancelot felt ashamed that a Knight like him would be scared.

Moreover, he accepted Duchess Lilo’s mission, and he had to complete it!
