Chapter 538 Future of the dungeon (2)
She turned to look back at the camp and said, "They\'ve all gathered here in hopes of earning big money, we can\'t take that away from them or else it will hurt our prestige. Not to mention, the materials that they brought back were all good quality, so I know that they will sell. I\'m not willing to give up such good business when it\'s offered to me."
I couldn\'t help revealing a faint smile when I heard this.
I knew what kind of personality she had and she said this, I knew that she wasn\'t just saying this because of the good money that it would earn.
She was also considering the influence that this would bring us since there would be many nobles that would want to build a relationship with us for the items that we collected from the dungeon.
I didn\'t say anything about this since I didn\'t want to influence her decision.
If she chose to do this, then it was fine since we had moved past that phase where I wouldn\'t want her to do this.
It was for the good of our family and she was willing to do it, so there was no reason for me to stop her.
After a long moment of silence, Haley gave a nod and said, "Alright, that\'s decided. Let\'s go back then."
But before she could head back, I suddenly grabbed her hand and pulled her further away from the camp.
If it was anyone else, Haley definitely would have resisted.
But since it was me, she just silently followed me away from the camp.
Once we were alone in the forest, she looked at me with a teasing look as if she was about to say something, but she quickly stopped.
That was because she could see the serious look that was on my face.
Unless it was something very serious, I wouldn\'t look like this.
So she asked in a worried voice, "What\'s wrong?"
I shook my head to show that there wasn\'t anything wrong at first, but then I said, "I need to go back into the dungeon and I need to do it with a small group."
Haley was caught off guard when she heard this, but out of all of the questions that she had, she chose one specific one, "When and how many people?"
She could have asked why he needed to do this, but she decided to trust him.
I gave a grateful nod before saying, "Just a few people that we can trust and a few zombies so that no one will notice that anything is wrong. Also, it needs to happen as soon as possible."
Haley knitted her brows when she heard this, but then she didn\'t hesitate to head back to the camp.
I was even surprised to see how much of a rush she was in.
But when she saw that I wasn\'t following her, she turned around and looked at me before waving her hand to say, "What are you doing? Come on, we need to go now or we\'ll lose this chance."
I was even more surprised, but I followed her.
It seemed like she already had some ideas.
When we came back to the camp, there were some adventurers and mercenaries who wanted to invite us to drink with them. However, Haley just said in a teasing voice, "Are you really going to bother our alone time?"
All of them couldn\'t help revealing awkward looks when they heard this.
There were also many single dogs that revealed bitter smiles when they heard this.
Adventurers and mercenaries, there were many single men among them since they traveled far and didn\'t have time to find meaningful relationships while traveling.
There were some that were able to find love, but even then, they usually left for months on end from their families to earn money for them. So it also hurt them seeing the two of us like this.
But this excuse was very effective in driving the adventurers and mercenaries away.
We were able to make our way through the crowd until we found Cecilia.
She had already completely lost herself in the mood of the party and was already a bit drunk, but she immediately snapped out of it when I told her that there was something important that we had to do.
At the same time, it was lucky that she was with a few of her trusted subordinates.
We had all of them follow us to a tent where Haley explained what was happening.
Her plan was simple, it was to use the cover of the party to sneak into the dungeon while everyone was distracted.
But there was still a problem…
We needed the zombies to make it through the dungeon safely.
If we didn\'t have the zombies, then it would be impossible.
Haley revealed a smile when I asked this and she snuck something out from the dress that she was wearing.
It was two of the mushroom zombies.
She had put two of them under her large dress and had snuck them back with her…
I really didn\'t know what to say when I saw this.
I had thought that she was walking a bit strange, but I had thought that was just because she was rushing to come back.
But now I found that she was doing it because she had these two mushroom zombies under her dress.
I really didn\'t know what to say when she pulled the two of them out.
It definitely was not something that I was expecting…
Still, with these two mushroom zombies, it should be possible to reach the stone door since the monsters shouldn\'t have repopulated the dungeon yet.
So with this, we snuck back into the dungeon.
