Chapter 585 - Scared Duo Hong
Chapter 585: Scared Duo Hong
When Duo Hong saw that the Death Spider had finally been killed by a few of his subordinates, he finally relaxed. However, now that Duo Hong heard the sound, Duo Hong thought that there was a Death Spider.
Therefore, he looked back and happened to see Lugh. Lugh was currently smiling at Duo Hong.
Lugh knew that Duo Hong wanted to kill him, but Lugh did not want to kill him for the time being. Duo Hong had already used money to buy his life.
Lugh wouldn’t kill Duo Hong before Duo Hong attacked him again. Lugh was a person with professional ethics.
Another reason was that Lugh didn’t like Duo Hong. After Duo Hong left his family, he was trash. Lugh didn’t like Duo Hong, so he didn’t kill Duo Hong.
Duo Hong looked at Lugh. Although he really wanted to kill Lugh, his subordinates had lost all their strength due to the battle earlier. Although Duo Hong was in good condition, during the battle earlier… Duo Hong just ran away with his head in his hands. He didn’t fight. Right now, Duo Hong’s stamina was at its peak, but Duo Hong didn’t have the guts to kill Lugh.
Lugh took a look at Duo Hong and continued to walk downstairs. When Duo Hong saw him, he could only let Lugh leave. Even if he wanted to take revenge, his life was more important.
Lugh came to the teleportation array. After it was activated, Lugh entered the third level.
When Lugh came to the third level, he discovered the situation.
Lugh came to a huge palace. There were already a large number of people in the palace.
After taking a few glances, Lugh knew that these people had come to Skull Mountain to search for the treasure.
Lugh had seen some of the people here at the periphery of Skull Mountain. Lugh’s memory was not bad, so he could still remember them now.
However, this made Lugh very confused. He felt that he should be the first to arrive here. Why were there so many people? Was his speed slow?
This was impossible. Lugh was certain that when he obtained the treasure, he had been racing against time to move. On the way, other than fighting with that guy, Duo Hong, the rest, Lugh had been moving according to the treasure map.
His speed should be the fastest, but when Lugh saw these people, it was obvious that they had been here for some time.
Lugh gathered some information around these people and immediately knew what was going on.
It turned out that not everyone was lucky to have a treasure map. These people were not very lucky. They did not find any treasure after entering the second floor, so they quickly left. The second floor wanted to reach the third floor… to get the treasure properly.
However, there was one person who thought so, and many people thought so. Besides some lucky people, they just did not get the treasure. However, some people found themselves in danger the moment they reached the second level.
Some people directly fell into a source beast group.
After the source beasts saw them, they had to leave. The source beasts had not seen humans for a long time, so they directly killed those unlucky people.
However, when some people were teleported together, even if they fell into a group of source beasts, they relied on their numbers to fight their way out.
It was because of this that many people on the second floor were injured, so they could only come to the third floor.
Now, Lugh knew that there were no treasures on the third floor. This was a place to rest. The others did not know this, but they also saw that there was no danger here, so after a large number of people were injured… They chose this place to heal their injuries.
So, Lugh saw a large number of people resting on the third floor. Seeing so many people, Lugh didn’t have any thoughts. Now, Lugh also needed some time to rest.
Since so many people were here, Lugh was at least on the same starting line as them.
After these few battles, Lugh was also a little tired. He found a place to rest.
While Lugh was resting, on the second floor, Duo Hong had dealt with all three of the Death Spiders in front of him.
However, Duo Hong was currently very unhappy. Because of Duo Hong himself, a large number of source beast tamers in the clan had died. If only one or two died, Duo Hong would at most be scolded.
However, right now, too many of Duo Hong’s subordinates had died. A third of the clan’s forces had been killed by Duo Hong. After all, this was an important time to snatch Skull Mountain’s treasures.
With so many of his subordinates dead, Duo Hong did not know what to do. His clan would definitely punish him. It was very likely that they would cripple him for the sake of the other members of the clan.
It was impossible for so many people to die without any indication. On the second floor, he had already fired a distress signal flare. Now, a large number of people in his family knew that those people had gone to look for him.
If these people had really sacrificed themselves for the sake of obtaining the treasure, the family members might have lightened the punishment.
However, Duo Hong knew that these people had died for the sake of killing Lugh.
Furthermore, these people had died because of his orders. For example, during the first time, he had ordered the gates of the fortress to be blown open. Then, because of this huge commotion…
A large number of source beasts nearby had come over and killed a large number of Duo Hong’s subordinates. The second time, it was because he wanted a large number of the corpses of the Death Spiders and they had been killed by the male Death Spider that had returned.
Now, due to Duo Hong’s own misdirection, the important forces in the clan had suffered a large loss. This made Duo Hong feel afraid.
Although Duo Hong usually flaunted his might in the clan, in the core position of the clan, there was no place for him, Duo Hong.
In the clan, Duo Hong was the son of the clan leader. However, Duo Hong’s father had several sons. Moreover, Duo Hong’s mother didn’t have much ability, so Duo Hong didn’t have much power in the clan.
In addition, Duo Hong didn’t gain the favor of his father in the clan, which resulted in Duo Hong not being favored in the clan.
This resulted in Duo Hong’s father not being able to protect Duo Hong in this matter, and Duo Hong was very likely to be liquidated by other people in the clan.
In the clan, the clan leader wasn’t the only one who could control the skies. Everyone was a figure in the clan, and they were all of the same ancestor.
Although the clan leader had the greatest power in the clan, there were also many powers in the clan. They wanted to let Duo Hong’s father step down and go up on their own. Therefore, Duo Hong’s father had to compromise in many matters.
