Dungeon Prowler : One Man Army 88 Ploy

"There is one more thing that drives my point further. When we dealt with the cult, we were very lenient with them, we chose capture most of them instead of killing because we kids wish to stay pure a bit longer, and there are many that survived, who otherwise would be dead, from what we know, this region around the lonely mountain had around half a million members, and we know for sure the cult has roots in every region on burkan. I would like to propose the death to all of those captives in the hands of the church, because if only one of them runs away, it may push forward the operation that will kill the world."

Leol sat back down and let the room exchange looks and nods until Asterion spoke up for the first time, "i can provide some locations where this cult exists thanks to some beasts that are connected to me, however there is one that makes me nervous, there is a mana laboratory inside the eternal forest, i know about it because the humans came begging us to open that laboratory for them under the excuse that they are looking to use the technology of old to enhance the technology of the new era" Asterion looked at Yggdrasil beside him.

The delicate looking elf said with a most enchanting voice " we are monitoring them but currently they are studying a mana s.h.i.+eld that disrupts communication and ensures secrecy, we have sent a few of our men to inspect them but there is nothing out of the ordinary, they are truly studying the technology of the old era".

Yunan also added his insights into the table "I suspect that you are looking at the front they want you to see. The actual technology anyone would want to study should be hidden with the utmost secrecy, i believe that they have already transported what they needed that specific lab for, and they left those technicians there to gain whatever they can legally, using that technology to draw the attention to the places they want us to look at. Well, regardless of all speculation, Debauchery has a new target and we would like the four of you to disperse into the four corners of the world, it would be best if you got new hosts and just disappeared from everyone's field of sight."

Mina spoke at last, "there is a place that Hephaestus built for us if we ever wanted to hide, we will be there ourselves, if you had any information or a message you wanted to pa.s.s on find Hephaestus himself, only he and us know about the location and only we can enter it. We will head there immediately, as for you honourable guests, you may stay in the lonely mountain as long as you wish"

Right after saying that Mina teleported Debauchery back to to the were the old dwarves were waiting, they were waiting on Mina so they did not pay attention to Debauchery who were led by Balin to leave this place for the academy, it was almost noon and the graduation exams were taking place for those who wanted to take them.

Back in the stone chamber were the hearts were smiling at each other, rather happy about what they did. The conversation going on was something like this "smart little rascals, they caught on fast enough without much goading", "especially the children, they were trained very well", "do you think they caught on our ploy?", "I don't think so, with such a heavy atmosphere we forced, they should not have enough brain power left to think about anything else", "your disciple is really dumb, just like you said, it must be luck he could use that broken furnace of yours".

On the way, out of the lonely mountain, Debauchery only broke the silence when they were alone, the first to speak was Reina who giggled to herself ."They need acting lessons, even my dad can lie better than them", "What do you expect, they can't just be like hey we need your help to stop you from murdering us, but you have to finish killing the millions you're already planning to kill off fast" ,"They have their dignity to look after, but if we are destined to murder them i think dignity should just be thrown away at that point", "Even the Black Fate was in on the ploy, how naive do they think we are?", " since we played along just let them think they did good, we got a new target to go for, do you think it's time to break dad's heart?", "Well he did take a new daughter, probably from the captives", " wow your dad has a very big heart!" "What big heart, he Just likes to play daddy with little girls, he did not even hug us last time we met", "and that is why you never anger a woman", "we women are good at holding grudges, better kill us if you want to rest easy", "so we do the old pope first, then we go for the cult?", "Sounds like a plan", "forget those for now, we have graduation exams to attend"

Debauchery returned to the academy while Bai was sent to the eternal forest, ahead of the rest, to do his s.h.i.+fty business, as for the juniors, they arrived at the central field where they joined the contestants lining up for the the status test. The nervous atmosphere did not seem to affect the mood of Yunan and friends who were happily discussing about how they could start fighting level 2 nests to feed the glutton Drogon who has grown enough to fly but still lazes about on any head it finds comfortable.
