Chapter 37: Chapter 32: Candice’s Killing Intent (4000 Votes, Please Collect) _2

This sense of inferiority led Luo Meng to desperately desire to prove his own worth in front of Eternal Monarch Nag, giving rise to an extreme craving for achievements.

Moreover, having had his head caught in a door as a child, which resulted in somewhat pitiable intelligence.

Taking all factors into consideration, Luo Meng was absolutely the perfect tool.

Furthermore, this plan had another benefit, it could temporarily divert Luo Meng’s attention away from Qin Chu, giving him some time to grow.

In the first week upon arriving in this world, Qin Chu was assassinated dozens of times, with several instances being dangerously close calls, narrowly escaping death.

The little bit of caution Luo Meng had was completely obliterated in the face of the glory that came from annihilating members of the Hero Team.

Candice kept watching Luo Meng’s expression. From those increasingly greedy, crazed eyes and increasingly rapid breathing, Candice knew Lord Horus’s plan had already succeeded by more than half.

Sure enough, after deeply pondering for a few seconds, Luo Meng suddenly raised his head, "Candice, your information is very good."

"Which member of the Hero Team do you have information on?"

"Unmoving Shield Guard Benson."

Perfect!

Benson was simply the best target to strike at.

This guy’s defense was even tougher than a tortoise shell.

But his offensive methods were few and his destructive power was laughable. With Luo Meng’s strength, there was a great chance of success in attacking Shield Guard Benson, and even if it failed, Benson wouldn’t be able to catch up during the escape.

"Is this information reliable?" Luo Meng asked further.

"Sorry, Prince, I can’t guarantee it," Candice seemed apologetic: "But there should be a seventy percent certainty."

Candice didn’t make her claim outright certain. If she had confidently guaranteed no issues, it would have aroused Luo Meng’s suspicion instead.

Luo Meng pondered; a seventy percent certainty wasn’t high, but it was indeed worth a try.

"Very good, Candice, this information is very useful to me... cough, to this Prince."

"A great service indeed," Luo Meng praised liberally.

But, it was merely verbal praise, with no actual reward.

This made Candice curl her lip internally, what a stingy Prince indeed.

Candice couldn’t help but compare Luo Meng with Lord Horus internally. Here was only verbal praise while Lord Horus directly used Super Order Magic Spells...

Indeed, demons and humans must not be lumped together.

The disparity was just not slight.

The more Candice thought about it, the more she was convinced that joining Lord Horus was the most correct decision she had made in her life.

"I will remember your contribution..." Luo Meng, unaware of Candice’s thoughts, continued, "You now return to Orville Royal City and continue gathering information for me."

Candice suddenly looked somewhat alarmed, hesitating for a few seconds before she spoke: "Your Highness, about this matter... please permit me to leave the royal city, I am willing to serve by Your Highness’s side."

"Orville Royal City is very dangerous now, the Second Generation Brave Warrior seems to sense the presence of demons, seeing through the demons’ disguises. Many demons within the city have been targeted and eliminated by the Second Generation Brave Warrior, I am worried..."

Luo Meng, who was initially somewhat pleased, his face suddenly darkened.

Candice’s refusal of his order upset Luo Meng.

But, given the merit Candice had just earned, Luo Meng did not directly lose his temper but instead questioned in a deep, thunderous voice: "Candice, are you intending to refuse my order?"

"You need not worry, you have half human blood, which is the perfect disguise. Heroes won’t discover you."

"But..." Candice still wanted to argue.

However, this further infuriated Luo Meng.

He had been patient, as pleasant as he could toward this half-breed, yet this foolish creature dared to repeatedly refuse his orders. Who gave her the courage?

The furious Luo Meng was surrounded by a dark red aura, his massive right hand suddenly swiped out, grabbing Candice’s slight figure in his palm. His fingers barely exerted any force, and Candice immediately felt excruciating pain.

The strong power was something Candice couldn’t bear at all; she could feel almost every bone in her body nearly being crushed under Luo Meng’s claws, she could even hear the grating sound of her bones deforming.

"Worthless half-breed, dare you to defy my orders?"

Her pretty face was overcome with pallor, dripping with cold sweat.

"Prince... Your Highness..." Candice’s voice was filled with pleading.

Seeing Candice’s agony, a sadistic pleasure surged in Luo Meng’s chest, and he felt a strong urge to crush this filthy half-breed in his palm.

But, Luo Meng restrained himself.

He took pride in his intelligence and patience.

After all, according to Candice, nearly all the lurking demons in the city had been wiped out. It was because of her human-demon hybrid blood that Candice had not been discovered by the Second Generation Brave Warriors, making her a sole survivor.

This significantly increased Candice’s value.

Considering this, Luo Meng softened his tone, "Candice, rest assured, the heroes won’t discover your identity."
