Gamers of the Underworld (Web Novel)
chapter-125

Large scales reflected brilliance.

Spikes populated the spine all the way to the tip of the tail. Huge Dragon claws were tucked in at the stomach, and large teeth looked like sharp daggers.

The Commerce Area of Eternal Kingdom was fully occupied by a large Dragon.

Its body length was 150 meters!

The Goblins’ eyes lit up with strange sparks as they surrounded the large Dragon. If Sherlock hadn’t prohibited them from getting close to the huge Dragon, they would have caressed the Dragon, used their teeth to bite him, or stabbed him with a Short Sword.

The Huge Dragon didn’t know why the Goblins weren’t able to get close to him. He thought they were afraid of the Dragon Aura.

“You are such pathetic Goblins. Do you want to be my underlings? I’m the Eternal Guardian of Death, Dark Flaming Mana Lord, Dark Scorch Hot-Tempered Dragon. This Dungeon may be dilapidated, but I like it. I intend to create my Devil King’s Dragon Lair. You Goblins are suitable to be my underlings!

“Me, me, me, me!”

“Choose me!”

“I am 007!”

“I’m the most hardworking!”

“Whatever mission is no problem for me, I’m the brave one!”

“As long as Eggface gives an order, I’ll sacrifice everything for you!”

“Can you assign me the mission first? I haven’t prepared my meal…”

“Veterans! We can’t cross over!”

The Goblins chatted wildly after they heard the Black Dragon’s words.

Eggface didn’t understand what they meant, but seeing the excited Goblins, he lifted his head and wanted to give a bellow and consolidate his prestigious position in Eternal Kingdom. Before Eggface bellowed, he saw a tall figure pushing the Goblins aside in the crowd. The tall figure advanced towards him.

It was a superior Devil.

The emotionless Sherlock walked through the crowd, which gave way to him. He walked towards the Black Dragon.

He walked in front of the Dragon as the Dragon gazed at him maliciously.

“Give me some face,” the Black Dragon said in a loud drum-like voice to Sherlock.

Sherlock looked at the 150-meter long Huge Dragon that occupied more than half of the Commercial Area that the gamers had painstakingly excavated.

Sherlock walked forward.

This time, Mana wasn’t activated. The gamers shouted.

“Plot Animation!”

“It’s serious! Is Sherlie fighting with the Black Dragon?”

“I’m selling dark clay at the front row, fresh dark clay!”

Sherlock walked into the Huge Dragon’s body.

“D*mn! It’s a BUG! Come and take a look!”

“It’s hilarious. Sherlie is going through the Dragon!”

“What the heck? Is this game ‘Dungeon: BUG’?”

“Is there a reward for exposing this BUG?”

“There’s no submission page. How are you going to submit the BUG?”

“Expose this BUG on the forum. Perhaps, there will be a reward!”

As the gamers were bickering, Sherlock arrived at the Black Dragon’s Core.

The 1.5-meter Black Dragon sat aggrieved on the ground.

Sherlock grabbed the Black Dragon’s wings from behind as though he was gripping a small chick.

Sherlock didn’t use his Mana. To the gamers, the illusion created by Eggface’s Dragon Speech Mana was intact, but they couldn’t see Sherlock because Sherlock was engulfed by the illusion.

“I’m the Eternal Guardian of Death, Dark Flaming Mana Lord, Dark Scorch Hot-Tempered Dragon. I’m…”

In front of Sherlock, the small Black Dragon lowered his head and spoke with a grievance.

“I know, Eggface.” Sherlock lifted the small Black Dragon. With the help of the illusion, he went deep into the Commerce Area.

“But you can’t change the game settings as you wish. I’ll have problems explaining. Yes, this will be your temporary home.”

Sherlock threw Eggface into a small pit that had a Goblin’s bed. Then he asked, “What else do you need?”

“I need servants who will help me conquer the world, the best nail clippers, and a pile of shimmering treasure that I can sit on,” Eggface said.

“Hmm, take a rest,” Sherlock said gently and left.

…

The Dungeon didn’t have day or night, but there was time.

At 3am, in the dark Dungeon Core Main Hall, the diligent Devil Lord Sherlock was busy working so that his adorable citizens could have blissful and carefree lives.

Sherlock typed furiously on the keyboard.
