Chapter 173: The Dangerous Plan No One Supports

    "It seems that to ensure the absolute safety of our new shelter location, I must make a trip to the Abyss of Death," Irving said to James in a slightly heavy tone.


    Upon hearing Irving''s words, James''s face disyed an expression of extreme shock. He could no longer remain calm because he believed that Irving''s n was utterly insane.


    "Irving, I know you are a true genius. I also know that your strength surpasses anyone else I know. But even so, I think your n is extremely reckless," James said with urgency in his voice.


    His tone was so anxious that his voice grew louder, catching the attention of Wendy, who was picking up gems nearby.


    "We only know the name Abyss of Death. Any yers in the shelter game who approach the Abyss of Death are killed. Even the elite squad sent by the Angel Guild couldn''t sessfully reach the Abyss of Death. I learned about the presence of these frogs around the Abyss of Death from them," James continued, trying to persuade Irving to change his n.


    However, after hearing James, Irving was even more determined.


    "I admit that no one else has ever reached the Abyss of Death. But I am different from everyone else. My strength is greater, and I possess a trump card that they could never have," Irving said, his tone resolute.


    The trump card Irving referred to was, of course, the Taikoo me Pearl within his body. The Taikoo me Pearl was closely linked to the Taikoo Divine n, which had left numerous relics in the shelter game. The castle where Irving and hispanions currently resided was one of these relics left by the Taikoo Divine n.


    There was a high possibility that the chest Irving had just destroyed was also left by the Taikoo Divine n. Connecting all the clues together, Irving believed he could rely on the protection of the Taikoo me Pearl to sessfully reach the Abyss of Death.


    Irving''s tone was incredibly determined as he spoke.


    Seeing that he couldn''t persuade Irving, James looked towards Wendy.


    "Do you support Irving''s n?" James asked.


    Wendy had merely been listening curiously to the conversation between Irving and James. She hadn''t even heard their entire discussion, so when James directed the question at her, she was a bit puzzled.


    "What is Irving''s n?" she asked.


    "I think his strength surpasses all of ours. So if he believes his n will seed, we should follow his judgment," Wendy said, still unaware of Irving''s specific n. She only knew to follow Irving''s instructions.


    Wendy''s words made James even more frustrated. He quickly summarized Irving''s n.


    After listening, Wendy''s eyes widened in disbelief as she turned to Irving. "Is what James said true? Is the Abyss of Death really that dangerous? If it is, then I think you shouldn''t take the risk!"


    Wendy, though new to the shelter game, was a highly professional assassin. She understood that when facing a dangerous area, one should never act rashly. It was crucial to gather enough intelligence before taking any action. If all her friends opposed the n, it likely meant that a desperate move could lead to disastrous consequences.


    Despite the opposition from both James and Wendy, Irving''s expression remained unchanged. "You two may be against it, but that doesn''t mean everyone else will be. I''ll return to the real world as soon as possible to discuss this with Vicky and the others."


    Under normal circumstances, Irving would neverpromise in the face of opposition. But this time was different. The castle was tied to the new location of Irving''s shelter. Once he relocated his shelter to the castle, his allies would also move their shelters around it. Therefore, anything rted to the castle was also rted to all of Irving''s allies.


    James and Wendy were Irving''s allies, and they had already expressed their opposition. So Irving hoped to garner support from the others.


    James did not continue to oppose Irving''s decision because he believed that Vicky would also disagree with Irving''s n.


    After taking care of matters in the castle, the three of them promptly returned to the real world.


    Meanwhile, Vicky was discussing the formation of the Ocean Group guild with Benjamin. Although Benjamin had only recently be the manager of the Ocean Group''s security department, he had served as the deputy manager for a long time and was very familiar with it.


    "President, I have almostpleted the formation of our shelter game guild. Although the people we recruited aren''t particrly strong, Irving has provided us with a significant number of weapons. We can use these weapons to quickly train somepetent guild members. After that, we can offer Irving help in the shelter game.


    Moreover, I have restructured all the departments in the security division within a short time. I can assure you that Joseph and hisckeys no longer have any influence in the security division," Benjamin reported.


    Vicky listened and nodded with a smile on her face. "You''ve done an excellent job. Since the guild formation isplete, go and meet Irving as soon as possible. Provide him with all the relevant information about our Ocean Group guild."


    Benjamin nodded in agreement.


    "I have no further matters to discuss. You can go ahead and handle the security division tasks," Vicky said, picking up another document from her desk, looking visibly tired.


    Benjamin nodded and then exited the president''s office.


    As soon as Benjamin stepped out into the hallway, he ran into Irving, James, and Wendy.


    "Is Vicky in her office?" Irving asked Benjamin.


    Benjamin nodded. "The President is indeed in her office, but shouldn''t you have notified us beforeing? Why didn''t the security at the entrance inform me?"


    Benjamin wasn''t really concerned about Irving not notifying them in advance; he was actually worried that the security he had put in ce wasn''t effective.


    "We didn''te through the main entrance. Irving said it was a waste of time, so he brought us directly to this floor," Wendy exined with a smile as she looked Benjamin up and down.


    Benjamin nodded, then turned and knocked on Vicky''s office door.


    "Miss Vicky, Mr. Irving and Mr. Jamesare here," Benjamin announced.


    Within seconds of his announcement, the office door opened from the inside. Vicky''s face lit up with a happy smile when she saw Irving.


    In front of everyone, Vicky immediately hugged Irving.


    "Did you miss me? Is that why you came to see me?" Vicky asked, her face beaming with a sweet smile.


    Irving responded with a smile, "Of course, that''s one of the reasons, but more importantly, I want to inform you all about my uing n."


    After chatting for a while, Irving and Vicky led everyone into the president''s office. Irving thenid out his n.


    Vicky and Benjamin''s reactions were identical to James'' initial response when he first heard the n.


    "You can''t do this! What if you encounter danger? What am I supposed to do then? Are you nning to abandon me?" Vicky asked, her face full of shock.


    Although Benjamin''s tone remained rtively steady, his words came out in a broken manner, indicating that he was equally stunned by Irving''s decision.


    "I truly don''t understand why you would undertake such a risky n. The Abyss of Death is not somewhere we can venture right now. Moreover, the frog you mentioned may not necessarily be one that only appears around the Abyss of Death. It could just be an ordinary frog," Benjamin said, ncing pointedly at James.


    Benjamin felt that James should not have shared ambiguous information with Irving in the first ce.


    James, realizing the implication of Benjamin''s words, responded, "I think Benjamin makes a very valid point. While the frog in the treasure chest does look simr to those around the Abyss of Death, it could simply be a resemnce.


    After all, there are many different species of frogs in the real world that look quite simr. So, I think you should reconsider taking such a massive risk."


    With everyone discouraging him, Irving seemed a bit deted. He slowly nodded.


    "You all oppose the idea, so it seems I should heed your advice," Irving said, causing everyone to breathe a sigh of relief.


    However, Irving suddenly shifted his tone and continued, "But I also want you to consider something else. If the frog in the treasure chest is indeed closely rted to the Abyss of Death, then is our chosen new location for the shelter still safe? Remember, our original n was to relocate everyone''s shelters around the castle.


    If we can''t ensure the castle''s safety, how can we move the shelters there? Would any of you want to relocate your shelter to such a dangerous ce?"


    Irving''s rhetorical question left everyone at a loss for words. Just as Irving had pointed out, the safety of the area around the castle was crucial. Unless they abandoned their original n, they had to eliminate any potential threats.


    After a moment of silence, Benjamin spoke up. "I think Irving''s reasoning is sound. However, sending Irving to the Abyss of Death poses too great a risk for all of us.


    Perhaps it would be better if I went to the Abyss of Death instead. Even if I were to die there, it wouldn''t be a significant loss for us as a whole. Besides, I believe I am agile enough to escape from the Abyss of Death."
