Yang Cheng nodded in agreement, already certain in his heart that it must be him.
Jerome was just an ordinary poor man. After he disappeared and entered the dungeon, he probably wouldn't have come into contact with beings of the superhuman level.
So he must have used the money he had saved up over many years to exchange with Andrew for the secret method of sacrificing Gordon.
Andrew, being someone between the extraordinary and the ordinary, was exactly the kind of person Jerome could come into contact with.
"Who is this 'demigod' Wood, the Lord of the West End? What's his background? How strong is he? How does he compare to you?"
Yang Cheng looked at Noynes and asked.
Noynes didn't actually want to answer that question.
However, under Yang Cheng's gaze, Noynes had no choice but to honestly say, "Wood's background is somewhat mysterious. Nobody knows what kind of superhuman he is."
But I'm certain that his power wasn't gained through sacrificing to evil gods. It's said that he once 'ate' a god, thus gaining a portion of divine power, which is why he's known as a demigod.
If that guy fought me in his normal state, he would definitely be no match for me.
However, his power is somewhat sinister; once he unleashes his demigod power, I'm not confident I can defeat him.
Yang Cheng nodded naturally, waved his hand, and turned to leave with Haji, who was still in a daze.
Seeing Yang Cheng's departing figure, Noynes gritted his teeth and said, "Pass on the news that Yang Cheng is about to cause trouble for Wood, including how I lost today."
No need for embellishment, just say I was no match for this guy at all, and he beat me terribly!
The other dark mages looked at Noynes with puzzled expressions.
This is clearly a shameful thing, so why does Noynes want everyone to know about it?
Noynes saw through their thoughts and snorted coldly, "I'm going to make this known to everyone!"
Since this guy is going after Wood, I might as well let Wood suffer along with me instead of me suffering.
When the whole dungeon knows someone is coming to demand his men, if Wood agrees to back down and hand them over, he'll lose far more face than I do.
If Wood chooses not to hand it over and insists on fighting that guy, well, that'll be quite a show!
I don't know where that guy came from, but he was incredibly strong. Even when I entered my Black Devil state, I was no match for him.
I even have a feeling that this guy isn't using his full strength; his true power is definitely much greater!
Wood will suffer the same loss then, maybe even worse. Will the people in the dungeon still talk about me then?
They only talk about how strong this guy is, and the trouble Wood got into because of his men, etc.
Upon hearing Noynes's words, the dark sorcerers immediately understood.
Noynes was cunning enough... no, he was resourceful enough.
If he were defeated by Yang Cheng alone, that would be a major setback, and he would definitely be talked about by the other dungeon dwellers for a while.
But if Wood is dragged into this, then the discussion will no longer be about Noynes, but about Wood and Yang Cheng.
The members of the Black Magic Council learned of Noynes's plan and immediately began to act, relaying the message to the dungeon.
In an instant, the entire underground city erupted in excitement.
In fact, although there are all kinds of killings and crimes in places like dungeons every day, precisely because of this, there are very few big news stories.
If what Yang Cheng did in the underground city were to be spread, it would be huge news.
A mysterious and powerful figure, in order to find one person, directly killed the leader of the Night Ravens, then stormed the Black Magic Council alone and beat up the King of the East District, 'Black Devil' Noynes, and now he is going to cause trouble for the King of the West District, 'Demigod' Wood.
Is this guy going to slaughter his way through the entire dungeon?
St. Brand's dungeon hadn't been this lively in years. Just as Noyce had expected, once the news came out, no one was discussing Noyce's crushing defeat anymore. Everyone was discussing who Yang Cheng really was and what Andrew had done to make such a powerful figure fight his way through half the dungeon to find him.
Of course, many people are discussing how 'demigod' Wood will respond.
Should they hand over their men, or fight to the bitter end and also clash with this mysterious powerhouse?
Meanwhile, in the western district of the underground city, Wood, the 'demigod' who had received the news, smashed a cup in anger.
