140 Sherlies Shameful Titles (1/2)

In the dark swampland, a few heads of the Marsh Inkspewers popped out from pits.

Sherlock looked at the Marsh Inkspewers and the gamers who were searching in the marsh.

”Greetings, do you know where the home of the tribe chief is?”

A few gamers were asking the Marsh Inkspewers the same question.

The dazed Salted Fish gazed at the unrestrained gamers and Gnomes who were running around and searching in the Marsh Inkspewers' territory.

After the Goblins and Gnomes searched for half a day in vain, they cursed and started collecting the mud from the marsh.

A gamer who was standing close to Salted Fish said, ”They're very poor. They don't even have a chest for us to ransack. Forget it, I'll get some mud to see if it's worth anything.”

The gamers who attempted to communicate with the Marsh Inkspewers only got ”Wah ah ah” as replies. The Marsh Inkspewers who could speak the Underworld common language were too frightened and unwilling to communicate when they saw the gamers rummaging around.

Only Salted Fish was able to communicate well.

”Aiya, your village is beautiful and well decorated. It's suitable for habitation,” Sherlock said as he looked at the barren, rocky, and marshy environment.

”This place's beautiful, but it's not our homeland. Our homeland is the larger and more beautiful marshland in front! But it's currently occupied by the despicable Large Lizards!” Salted Fish said loudly.

”No matter what, we have to defeat the Large Lizards and chase them away!”

”Hmm, don't worry. All members of Eternal Kingdom will help and protect you!” Sherlock said as he smiled gently.

Sherlock saw a gamer squatting outside a hole entrance and putting his head inside. Then he pulled out his muddy head and shouted, ”Quick! Who has tools? There's something in the hole!”

”Fool! Use the shield to dig! See if there are any Darting Birds!”

A few gamers gathered and used their shields to dig. Other gamers followed suit and dug up the Marsh Inkspewers' residential holes.

Because of Bru and Sherlock, the gamers were unable to attack the Marsh Inkspewers directly, but it didn't mean they couldn't change the landscape.

The gamers' objective was not to kill the Marsh Inkspewers but to obtain valuable stuff. After hearing that there was something in the hole, they started to dig.

Salted Fish gaped at them, lifted his hands, and opened his mouth. As he was about to speak, Sherlock lifted his hand and said, ”Don't be mistaken. They're not digging up and raiding your homes. The members of Eternal Kingdom would never do that. They are checking if your homes are sturdy. Don't worry.”

The gamers who were digging were taken aback. A gamer threw away his shield and shouted, ”What a joke. If we aren't allowed to dig for mud and ransack the Marsh Inkspewers' homes, are we still heroes of the Underworld?”

Sherlock looked at Salted Fish and spread out his hands as he said, ”See, that is how things will turn out.”

He exerted his dominant aura to restrain the nearby gamers so that they didn't do strange things. At the same time, he reminded the gamers that a new ”Plot” was about to begin.

”We'll be building an outpost nearby to strengthen the defenses. We're building walls and trenches to defend against the Large Lizards.”

More and more gamers gathered as they heard information about the starting Plot.

”Wait, Lord Sherlock. Are you planning to build a base in our homeland?”

Before Salted Fish could finish speaking, Sherlock nodded and said, ”Of course, it's your homeland. Previously and now, this place is your homeland, but it might not be the case in the future. We have no intention to invade your homeland. We are hoping to have a safe resting place here. The Large Lizards are not easy opponents. We have to prepare for long periods of battle. The Underworld is a dangerous place. Who knows what other dangers besides the Large Lizards are lurking around?”

”I know. Our tribe is willing to provide a resting place for your warriors, but the Large Lizards do come here occasionally. Though there aren't many of them, we can't guarantee your safety,” Salted Fish nodded and said.

”That's not a problem. To protect the weak, we'll try our best to help you exterminate the Large Lizards,” Sherlock clenched his fist and said righteously.
