Chapter 19：Martyrdom (1/2)

Before any of the newbies could ask further questions. Calvin proceeded to speak up. He thought that it would be troublesome if these newbies asked more questions for their time was of the essence.

”Danger is everywhere in this place, in order to navigate without accidentally meeting one of those madmen. We must have some degree of reliable information that we can use, so we won't get lost in this massive and dark asylum.”

Scarlette nodded her head, ”Are you saying that we're going to need a map? How do we find one? And where can we find something like that? A top-secret facility like this shouldn't leave any traces of its existence, and the employees of this place should be incredibly familiar with the asylum. There's no use for a map, how could it exist?”

”That's right... How are we going to find a map? Damn... This is impossible... Those bastards... Those bastards really sent us here to die!” Roy visibly trembled as he cried out.

Calvin glanced at him for a moment before he declared, ”We are not going to look for a map. Like what Scarlette said, there is no map for this asylum. In other words, we are not going to look for a map. We're going to make one.”

”What...?”

The newbies were dumbstruck.

They couldn't believe what they just heard.

”What? Is it really that unbelievable? I bet an asylum like this should have some pen and paper that we can use.”

Calvin lightly smiled.

Actually, he already had a map of the entire asylum inside the small notebook that he received from Ria. But if he wanted to use that map without arousing any suspicions. He must ”make” a map first so that these newbies could accept the existence of the map that he had.

”Are you insane?! Making a map? You want us to go out there without knowing what's out there in the first place?” Philip furrowed his eyebrows and immediately complained.

Hugo raised his eyebrows. Even he did not dare to explore this asylum alone blind, yet Calvin was actually proposing that they should explore the place first, then make a map according to what they saw and where they passed through?

That was insane!

It was the same as courting death!

”Explain...”

Medea coldly said.

Though she still had that cold look on her face, it was obvious from her eyes that she seemed to be angry at Calvin for proposing such an outrageous thing.

”Hey, hey, hey... Don't just jump into conclusions, all right? I did say that we should make a map, but I didn't say that all of us should go outside and explore the area. A single person is enough to make a map. If that person has some brain cells, then he should be able to draw a map of this place... How about it?” Calvin glanced at Medea.

Medea stared right at him and frowned.

What Calvin said actually made sense, but the problem was...

Who was going to go out there and explore the area?

”I'll volunteer.”

While the newbies were hesitating, Hugo stood up and volunteered.

”Oh, Hugo? You're going to volunteer? Thanks, man, you're saving us a lot of time.” Philip turned to Hugo and revealed a smile that seemed to be more like a smile of relief.

Hugo didn't even glance at him as he stared at Calvin, ”I'm not good when it comes to using my brain. But I think I can draw a map at least...”

Calvin revealed a smile.

To be honest, he was actually the one that planned on going outside to ”explore” the place and ”make” that map that they needed. The only reason why he said those words to Medea was that he wanted to know the cowards from the strong. He wanted to know who among these newbies could be relied upon amidst a tragedy.

So far, Hugo was definitely reliable.

But he wasn't suitable to explore the area.

”Hugo, as much as I want to thank you. You're not really suitable for exploring the area. With your height alone, you could be easily spotted from a mile. Not only that, but your footsteps are also quite heavy. I'd rather have you practice on silencing your footsteps as much as possible as you wait for the return of the one who will volunteer to make a map.”

Hugo scrunched his eyebrows.

”Then, who do you think should go?”

Hugo asked in confusion.

The moment his words rang out...

Calvin's gaze landed on the others.

His eyes first landed on Philip.

”No!!! Not me... I won't go there... No matter what you say, I won't go there and get myself killed!”

Philip immediately cowered under Calvin's urging eyes

Calvin's gaze then landed on Roy.

Roy gulped a mouthful of saliva and avoided Calvin's eyes out of shame.

Even though he didn't say anything, his stance was clear.
