Dejov's eyes darkened. In fact, he himself was also puzzled as to why he had been chosen as a member of this team.
Weps' abilities are very helpful to the team, so it's not surprising that he was chosen. The Northern Alliance keeps a close watch on the information of the ghost storytellers under its command. Every ghost storyteller needs to report their talent ability to the higher-ups after changing their talent, so that the "commanders" at the higher level can make certain arrangements for them.
What a joke! This commander has never even entered the world of ghost stories; he's just a laughable armchair strategist. Fortunately, he has enough professional theoretical knowledge, otherwise he would be no different from a baboon.
In terms of ability, Dejov and Rusger both have the ability to kill strange creatures, which seems to overlap. It would be better to choose a teammate with more functional talents.
But no matter what, he's already here. How to pass the level isn't his concern. Perhaps being able to help those big shots in a small way is already quite good.
The most important thing is to get out of here alive.
"Don't look at me with that long face!" Wips laughed and patted Dejov on the shoulder. "We'll get out of here alive, one by one!"
"Then I'll take your good wishes."
After learning the information, Jiang Ran told the two not to act rashly and rushed over immediately!
It is said that everyone can use Wips' ability to teleport once, but that is a very precious opportunity to save one's life, so it is naturally not used for traveling.
Dejov had just breathed a sigh of relief when he instantly sensed a dangerous aura!
A person walked through the pipe and stood in front of them.
It was a man wearing a tattered leather jacket, with a scar on his face, and holding a short knife about half a meter long in his hand!
He gently ran his fingers along the back of the knife: "I usually like to use this thing to kill rats, I don't think there's any difference, right?"
Dejov stared warily at the man in front of him. He couldn't accurately judge the other's strength level, but the information passed on by others indicated that the lowest level in this world was "Elite," which was clearly not a level that ordinary people could deal with!
If the opponent tries to attack, Dejov will immediately use his innate ability, "Silver Flame," to kill them! Then he will quickly escape!
"Which side are you on? Or perhaps I should be more precise, which committee member are you on?" The demon apostle licked his lips. "Right now, there's only one way for you to survive: throw yourself into the arms of the Demon Lord!"
Under normal circumstances, this demon apostle would not hesitate to kill the enemy in front of him, because in order to prevent the leakage of certain important information, the three committee chairmen generally do not allow weaker people to have too much information. Therefore, even if some low-level members are captured, it is impossible to find out any useful information.
But the situation is different now. Where is this? This is the doorstep of their lair! The Demon Apostle must know something important: did these two people come to explore out of suspicion, or did the three chairmen's faction already know the location of their lair?
The Demon Apostle was more inclined to believe the first piece of information, because if the three committee chairmen already knew the information, they would definitely not send only two such weak people to explore; instead, a large force would descend directly!
There's still a chance to salvage the situation, but he still needs to confirm this information! As for recruiting these two people into their ranks, God, who would believe such nonsense?
The two will be killed immediately if they reveal the information they want!
Weips's mind was racing! Jiang Ran was still a long way off from them, and it was impossible for him to get there so quickly. They only had two choices: either pretend to agree and then fabricate some non-existent information, or kill the person in front of them and run away as fast as they could!
These people are of course untrustworthy. Weps wouldn't be foolish enough to think he could actually join them. But this is the lair of the Demon Apostles. The fact that they only sent one person to them suggests that they think one person is enough. But that doesn't mean they didn't have a backup plan!
Dejov can only kill a maximum of five people! If a real fight breaks out, they might not be able to fight their way out of here alive. It would be better to fabricate some longer intelligence to buy time. If they can hold out until Jiang Ran arrives, that would be best. If not, they should just use the teleportation opportunity to leave this place!
"Don't be nervous, sir. Our superior is Mr. Yang Zong, one of the three chairmen of the National People's Congress."
Weips didn't directly say that he wasn't one of the three chairmen, because they wouldn't believe such a claim anyway, so it was better to just go along with it.
"Hmm." The Demon Apostle nodded. "I hope you're honest. How did you get here?"
Is the most crucial part about to begin?!
Wips didn't even have time to mentally rehearse his words, because hesitation would arouse suspicion, and he had to make his words sound reasonable enough, which made him feel like his CPU was about to explode!
"Our captain ordered us to search this area, and we were just following orders."
"Your captain..."
The demon apostle frowned. If what these two people said was true, it meant that the other party had begun to suspect this area, but it had not yet been confirmed. However, it was now almost as if it had been confirmed!
Let these two go back; they definitely won't keep the secret!
Let these two die here? What's the difference between that and directly telling one of the three chairmen?
The best solution is to quickly relocate your base and get everyone out!
"Alright! You two can go die now!"
The demon apostle swung his sword at the two men, but Dejov instinctively used his talent to burn them to ashes!
"Jiang Ran is so close to us now, my God, how did he manage to speed up like this?"
"As you know, he has a very capable assistant by his side..."
If Jiang Ran had arrived in time, the two of them wouldn't have needed to use their precious teleportation opportunity. That's why Dejouf used his talent to kill the Demon Apostle directly!
"Walk!"
As the two passed through the pipe, a commotion seemed to come from behind them. Even at their fastest speed, they were no match for these strange creatures and were quickly surrounded!
That demon apostle died before he could pass on the information to the others, which is probably why the others didn't kill him directly!
"Tell me the information, and I'll give you both a quick death!"
"I think you don't need to ask anymore."
A voice came from afar, and everyone present turned to look!
It was a young man and a little girl.
"They are not the people of the three chairmen, they are my people!"
