I Became the Demon King of Lust

A day later, we were heading back to the mummy settlement.

This time, there was only our group that went in.

Without the other three groups, it was easier for Long Shui Ling to keep up her illusions. But of course, she would have to keep up the illusion of the other three groups since it would be strange if they suddenly went missing.

Still without having to match their movements, it was no doubt easier for her to keep up the illusion.

We easily made our way into the camp where we found the mummies currently training.

When Singed saw me, it immediately waved me over to help it. However, I shook my head and gave a moan.

It looked disappointed, but it understood and let me off.

With my group, we moved around the camp and set up a few things in hidden spots.

These were the explosives that we should have put in the camp yesterday.

Though it seems excessive, it was better to cover everything just in case since there was no knowing what would happen.

It didn't take long for us to set these up and the mummies didn't even notice them. They were well hidden, so there was no need for us to put any illusions on them to hide them.

After putting these explosives in place, it was all about waiting.

The hardest part would be on Long Shui Ling since she would have to keep up these illusions the entire time.

After another few hours, it was finally time to set off.

This was our first time seeing the mummy leader out of the floor boss room, but it came out this time to address all of the mummies who had been gathered.

All of them stood in the center of the square as they waited for the mummy leader to appear.

When it did, they all couldn't help revealing looks of awe and fear.

I also couldn't help looking at the mummy leader with a strange look since it was releasing an aura that it hadn't released before.

This time, it looked like it really was the boss of this group.

After the mummy leader came forward, it suddenly said, "My fellow people, today is the day that we fight for our freedom."

The mummies couldn't help revealing confused looks when they heard this.

The mummy leader revealed a serious look as it said, "We have been under the suppression of that tyrant for too long. Today is the day that we finally free ourselves from his rule!"

Many of the mummies didn't seem too enthusiastic about this, almost as if they didn't really care about this.

But the mummy leader's suppression was more than enough for them to go along with it still.

The mummy leader could naturally see that there was a lack of morale, but it didn't care at all. After all, these mummies were nothing more than distractions for it to get to its true enemy.

As long as they stalled the others, that was more than enough for it.

Once he finished saying this, the mummy leader revealed an excited look as it turned to look at me. With a wave of its hand, it said, "Now, I want to introduce the one that will be leading you all."

I gave a sigh and had no choice but to go onto the stage.

With the way that the mummy leader had spoken, it seemed like I would receive hate or apathy from the mummies since they didn't support this fight.

When I walked up over to where the mummy leader was, there were many gazes that had traces of hostility in them.

They didn't openly show their hostility, but it was clear that they weren't happy to see me.

That is until a few of them started to speak up for me.

To my surprise, there were quite a few mummies that suddenly started speaking up for me as I stood up there, though it was mostly moaning from them.

As I looked carefully, I saw that it was…the mummies that I had talked to on the first night.

The ones that had been with us when we built our house, they were the ones that suddenly spoke up for me.

I didn't know why they did this, but eventually the entire atmosphere started to change.

It wasn't just those mummies that were talking about me, but the others were slowly talking about me as well. Judging by the tone of their moaning, it didn't seem like it was bad. Read latest stories on m_v-l'e|m,p| y- r

It almost seemed like they were supporting me.

But why would they do that when they didn't know me?

They shouldn't be showing support for me like this without knowing anything about me…

It didn't take long before it seemed like the rest of the mummies joined in on the cheering.

Judging by the way that they looked at me and moaned to each other, it almost seemed like they all knew about me.

The mummy leader revealed a look of admiration before coming over to pat me on the shoulder.

Just what was going on here?

I couldn't be more confused when I saw all of these mummies acting this way…

But it seemed that they were willing to fight because I was here…

So it seemed that there wouldn't be a problem in putting the plan in action.

After the rally to raise morale, the mummy leader called for the others to follow it as it headed to the floor boss room.

It was at this time that we also sent the signal to Tie Gang's group who were waiting outside.

Since all the mummies were going, it meant that there was no one here to watch over the settlement.

We had thought about using explosives to chase the ones that stayed behind out, but it didn't seem necessary.

When the time came, Tie Gang's group should be able to make their way through this settlement and to the next floor where the fight would be.
