Chapter 371: Morgan

Chapter 371: Morgan

“No. 58956, 42565, 58585, and 25654 candidates, prepare yourselves. The Level A examination is about to begin.”

The voice came from a crystal ball, and the four Lich candidates stood up immediately and started preparing for their examination.

“Ah, finally, it’s our turn!”

“I thought I wouldn’t be able to graduate.”

“Don’t let your guard down, the Black Armored Knight seems to be coming!”

“What’s the big deal with the Black Armored Knight? Many of our seniors trounced him and his team. We only have to delay for time, and we’ll graduate.”

Everyone smiled happily, and none of the Lich students noticed that the Gnomes were carrying vials with black colored potions.

This was the first time that the Instance Dungeon was conquered.

…

Twelve hours later.

“Oh dear, I’m at my wits’ end! This is the last one!”

Candidate No. 58956 placed both of his hands on the ground as he knelt down in a daze.

“What happened? What’s in those small vials? I slashed him. Why did he heal after drinking the contents of the vial?”

Candidate No. 42565 also knelt on the ground and said in an aggrieved tone, “We can’t defeat them… we can’t defeat them…”

Candidate No. 58585 knelt down too.

Only candidate No. 25654 gritted his teeth and persevered. His large, elite Orc Skeleton was cornered by the group of combatants from Eternal Kingdom. He went into a daze…

…

While the Lich students were kneeling down in frustration, the gamers on the forum were celebrating because they heard about the conquering of the Troops Training Grounds.

The most popular post [First clearing of “Specter College: Troops Training Grounds”! It took twelve hours!] was created by NotWearingPants.

Since the BOSSES in the Instance Dungeon didn’t have fixed skills, the gamers encountered different BOSSES every time. Hence, NotWearingPants’ post wasn’t about the Instance Dungeon, it was on saving time.

The most crucial item was the Minor Healing Potion.

“Lord Sherlock, the Minor Healing Potion provided much-needed assistance. According to my backend data analysis, the potion helped us earn 10% of the gamers’ money and materials. This is highly profitable!” Bru said excitedly while Sherlock browsed the forum.

“Hmm, very good. Just as I expected. We should come up with more Magic Potions. Then, the gamers will provide us with the materials, Magic Stones, and game currency that they have earned. Once they become poor, they will have to carry bricks diligently. I’m expecting another Golden Age in construction! It will become a positive loop cycle,” Sherlock was happy and said in anticipation.

A letter was thrown out from the Dungeon Core.

It had the words “Lord Sherlock—Winterfell Office” on it.

Sherlock tore open the letter and started reading.

“Dearest Lord Sherlock:

Apologies for imposing on you, Lord Sherlock. The second successor to Eternal Fire, Morgan, wishes to meet you. Due to pressure from my superior, I had to write this letter of invitation. I understand that Lord Sherlock is extremely busy, so I won’t be surprised even if you decline the invitation.

I would appreciate a reply.

—Love from Nicholas, Lassie”

“Tsk, does he treat Lassie as his name?”

Bru said immediately, “Decline it, Lord Sherlock. While you were watching the drama performance, he didn’t look friendly. He must have ill-intentions for meeting you!”

“Why should I decline? Are we not worried about hidden plotters? It’s better to meet him for peace of mind.”

Sherlock snapped his fingers, and a pen and a piece of paper floated up. The pen then started writing.

It was an acceptance letter, and Sherlock sent it over. Before long, Nicholas acknowledged with a return letter.

…

The meeting location with Morgan was the Winterfell Dungeon Lord Main Hall. Sherlock didn’t want to waste his precious tea.

Sherlock informed Eggface and Brainiac about the meeting, as they were his left and right-hand henchmen. Eggface was a Black Dragon who looked impressive. Moreover, he was familiar with secretary work. As for Brainiac, he was a rare genius Lich and was also impressive. He was very capable and could handle all matters given to him.

Eggface wore his formal wear and large framed spectacles that were suitable for secretarial work. He also carried a leather briefcase.

As for Brainiac, he wore his Professor cloak to show his status as an academic.

Besides Eggface and Brainiac, there was also a group of Gnome guards. Bru chose ten clean and fit gamers carefully and ensured that they wouldn’t go offline abruptly. They followed closely behind Sherlock.

This kind of Dungeon Lord meeting Plot Mission was rare, but it wasn’t the first time for the gamers. With Sherlock’s exertion of dominance, he was able to make the gamers keep quiet when the time came.

Sherlock was familiar with the way to the Winterfell Dungeon Lord Main Hall. He led Eggface, Brainiac, and the gamers towards his destination. The passersby would greet them and pay their respects. After all, they were the heroes that saved Winterfell and reorganized the old district. Now, there were no poor residents who were secretly studying. Instead, there was a helpful Adventurer’s Guild that assisted the residents with house chores. The residents were extremely pleased.

“Welcome, Lord Sherlock. Lord Morgan is in the Meeting Hall with the Dungeon Lord.”

Sherlock arrived at the entrance of the Dungeon Lord Main Hall and saw a Sludge Monster butler waiting for him.

Sherlock followed the butler to the Meeting Hall.

Sherlock recalled that he met the other Dungeon Lords inside the Meeting Hall to discuss the Ancient Gods crisis. The Dungeon Lord at that time had been Onionhead. Within a short period of time, there were two changes in Dungeon Lords. Things remained the same, but the creatures had changed.

Sherlock pushed open the door and walked in.

“Lord Sherlock!”

Nicholas stood up and greeting Sherlock with a warm smile, and an Orc secretary was pushing a cart and waiting by the side. On the opposite side was a smiling young Devil, Morgan.

“Finally, I have the chance to meet you, Lord Sherlock. I’m Morgan.”

Morgan walked towards Sherlock and smiled as he said, “We met two days ago when you brought along two female partners to watch my performance. I recognized you at first glance and felt very honored.”

Nicholas was relieved to see Morgan being so cordial. Sherlock smiled and said, “I’ve heard of you. As the second successor to Eternal Fire, I’ve heard of your name while studying.”

“Haha, let’s sit down and chat.”

Nicholas pointed to the sofa, and Morgan and Sherlock sat down.

The Orc secretary placed a cup of bloody chrysanthemum tea in front of Sherlock. Eggface walked forward and took Sherlock’s cup of bloody chrysanthemum tea, finishing it in a hurry. He licked his lips while putting the empty cup in front of Sherlock.

“I’ve tested it, there’s no poison,” Eggface adjusted his spectacles and said seriously.

Brainiac nodded at the Orc secretary, who was in shock.

“Ah?”

“Please pour another cup,” Brainiac said.

The Orc secretary recovered and poured another cup of tea. Brainiac took out a new cup from the cart and placed it on the table.

“Change the cup.”

“Apologies! Sincere apologies!”

The Orc secretary lowered his head and apologized while he poured another cup.

Eggface was about to drink from his cup of tea, but he was stopped by Brainiac, who drank the bloody chrysanthemum tea instead. The tea flowed along his spine to his hips before dripping noisily on the ground.

“Er… Lord Sherlock’s subordinates are full of humor,” Nicholas said after a long time.

“Let’s discuss the main topic.” Sherlock sat on the sofa and ignored the behavior of Eggface and Brainiac. He looked at Morgan and said, “Mr. Morgan, is there an urgent matter?”

“Yes, I’m here to convey some news to Lord Sherlock.” Morgan clasped his hands and said solemnly, “I’m here to kill Lord Sherlock or be killed by him. It’s that simple.”
