Chapter 321 - 321: Method Of Quasi
"What about APF? Do they also go through such checking?" Lucifer asked.
"I’m not sure about that. I’ll have to ask about that. As I said, this is just the preliminary report. There’s still a lot to unearth. This place should have many secrets," Jiang answered.
"Alright. Take more time, but you only have one more day. I want the answer tomorrow. We don’t have much time. Soon, this news will reach the government. Work fast," Lucifer reiterated as he disconnected the call.
"Defence of Capital City. If it’s really as unbreakable, the only option is to destroy it all. Wait... there’s that too!"
Lucifer abruptly stood up as he turned to leave.
As soon as he turned around, he saw the door open.
Kellian and Yaliza had arrived. They entered the room with Cassius and Alicia.
"You came at the right time. Tell me about the Capital City. Is there a Dungeon around that city?" Lucifer asked, seemingly eager to get the answer.
"Not one. There are actually two level three Dungeons near the Capital City. Why are you asking?" Kellian asked, wondering what Lucifer was thinking now.
Lucifer placed his phone on the table and sat on the chair again as he closed his eyes. He started thinking about what he learned regarding the dungeons in the academy.
"Don’t tell me you’re thinking about releasing the beasts from the Dungeons?" Alicia asked, guessing what Lucifer might be thinking.
"That’s right. If we can do that, the beasts will move towards the city. The city defense will be overwhelmed," Lucifer replied.
" I believe even APF members would be checked when entering the Capital. But when the forces of Elisium are overwhelmed by dungeon dwellers, they won’t check us."
"I’m just creating this plan as a backup. We still don’t have all the information. If there’s a better way, I’ll switch the plans," he added.
"Isn’t it impossible to bring out the monsters? The beasts can’t leave the Dungeon as long as the Monster Index isn’t high enough. No matter what we do, they just can’t come out," Kellian chimed in.
"That’s right. This plan won’t work," Alicia nodded.
"Nope. That’s where you’re wrong. There’s another way," Lucifer replied as he smiled. "Aren’t I right, Cassius?"
"Don’t tell me you’re thinking about...? Absolutely not! No way in hell are we doing that!" Cassius was taken aback as he realized what Lucifer was talking about.
Even though the Island Nation, where they lived, didn’t have any Dungeons, they still had information about them.
In fact, some of their scientists had gone to other nations to investigate the Dungeons to stay prepared in case one was discovered near them.
Through one such investigation, they found a way to let the monsters come out.
The information about the Dungeons was taught in the Academy, and this was also taught to the students. It was to teach them about what to do and what not to do.
As for Cassius, he was sure that Lucifer wanted to do what they were told never to do.
"You’re worrying too much. Don’t worry. It’s not that bad," Lucifer said.
"What method are you two talking about?" Alicia inquired.
"Artificially Increasing the Monster Index," Lucifer answered. "That will remove the block on the entrance of the Dungeon. Monsters will be able to come out."
"Artificially Increasing the Monster Index? Can you even do that? Doesn’t the Monster Index depend on the number of monsters inside the Dungeon?"
"You can’t increase it without increasing the number of Dungeon Dwellers inside. So how will you even achieve that?" Yaliza inquired, not understanding.
What was it that Lucifer knew, but they didn’t?
"The Method of Quasi," Lucifer replied.
"Method of Quasi? This is my first time hearing of it. What is it?" Alicia inquired.
"It’s the Method of artificially increasing the monster count. As for how it is done, you don’t need to know that for now. Just know that we’ll need to go inside the Dungeon if it comes to that," Lucifer answered.
" Let’s wait till tomorrow. I’ll get more information. Who knows, we might not even need to do it," he added.
He stood up and started walking towards the exit.
Stopping at the exit, he turned around and asked, "What are you all still doing here? It should be time soon. Clear the entire APF base. And kill all the people that haven’t surrendered."
"As for the ones who surrendered, I’ll go and meet them," he added as he left.
Cassius ran after Lucifer. Ayn and Alicia also went after him. As for Yaliza and Kellian, they got to work that Lucifer gave them.
"Don’t tell me you’re serious about doing it?!" Cassius asked Lucifer gravely.
"I’m not serious about anything at the moment. I’m just looking at the possibilities," Lucifer replied.
"Let this be a possibility only! Doing that would be stupid! Moreover, your goals are different. There’s no need to risk so much for it. I’m sure you know what will happen if you do this. There’s no going back!"
"As I said, you need to relax. I am sure there won’t be a need to do it. But even if there is, it won’t be as bad as you’re thinking it to be," Lucifer said.
Unlike Cassius, he seemed perfectly calm, as if he was talking about a completely normal thing.
"Ayn, where do you keep your fridge? I’m sure you’ll have some ice cream here, right?" Lucifer asked Ayn, who was lost in a thought of her own.
Ayn was praying that everyone had surrendered and no one was resisting.
"Ice Cream?" She asked, coming out of her daze.
"Of course. Where do you keep it?" Lucifer repeated the question.
Ayn didn’t ask again and simply escorted Lucifer to the canteen.
"Take as many as you want," she said, pointing toward the fridge.
Lucifer opened the big freezer to find many items inside. He brought three cups of ice cream before closing it.
"Here, have some. Calm your heads. I’m sure the two of you are a bit stressed. Relax. We have just finished a big mission without anyone dying. This deserves celebration, doesn’t it?" he asked as he gave a cup each to Cassius and Ayn.
"Here, one for you too," he added as he gave the third one to Alicia.
Walking back to the fridge, he brought another ice cream cup out, but this time only for himself.
As he turned back, he noticed that no one was eating.
Alicia was looking at him, thinking what was happening? One moment Lucifer was a crazy Warlock that killed Varant, took over the APF headquarters and was talking about taking over the Capital City, and the next moment, he was taking ice cream like a kid?
