576 The Plan of Expanding Into a New Dungeon (1/2)

Sherlock became the star of the banquet.

As a Dungeon Lord of a remote Dungeon, the things he achieved had gone beyond astonishing.

He saved Winterfell many times and defeated Devil King Mammon from Hades recently.

Though Mammon was at fault and was being investigated by the Devil Management Committee, he had faded into the background while Eternal Kingdom was in the limelight.

To the Underworld creatures, status was a barometer of power.

They were proud to have created order in the Underworld. As for the powerful Eternal Kingdom, the Underworld creatures were full of respect for the Dungeon, especially the young superior Devil, who was protected by a godly halo.

Even when Sherlock was helping himself at the buffet, many Devils and Gnome Lords went forward to greet him.

As a gentleman, Sherlock smiled graciously at all the guests. However, he wasn't there to socialize.

”Lord Sherlock, I'm greatly honored by your presence.”

Alexandria approached Sherlock and stayed by his side.

”Previously, while I was in Winterfell, I didn't have the chance to talk to you. Venice provides a good opportunity to catch up with you.”

”Mr. Alexandria, you don't have to be so formal. I'm here mainly to taste the delicacies,” Sherlock replied earnestly.

Alexandria smiled and said, ”It can't be helped, because I have a favor to ask of Lord Sherlock.”

”Let me guess.”

Sherlock sipped the fragrant bloody chrysanthemum tea from a metal teacup before saying, ”Are you asking for the Dungeon Core?”

Sherlock spoke frankly as he sipped the tea.

”Can I invite Lord Sherlock to come with me?” Alexandria asked politely.

Sherlock nodded. Though Polio and Brainiac wanted to follow him, Sherlock put up his hand and gestured for them to stay.

Only Bru spoke incessantly in Sherlock's mind. ”Lord Sherlock, what have you done secretly? Have you investigated Alexandria? Didn't you say that you had no information? Since Alexandria knows about the Dungeon Core, could he be one of the members of the Ancient Gods army?”

Bru asked the questions impatiently, but Sherlock didn't reply to him.

Sherlock followed Alexandria to the interior of a manor. The sounds of the outside banquet became very soft due to the thick walls.
