Everyone looked at James.

At this moment, James’s face was also filled with anger.

He wished that he could kill the Ghoul.

Not to mention his previous teammates, even he himself had nearly died at the Ghoul’s hands.

If Klein hadn’t appeared at the last moment, his body would probably be cold by now.

Therefore, his eyes were filled with viciousness as he looked at the Ghoul.

Therefore, he bowed to Klein with both hands.

“God Klein, I’m James. I can testify that this damned Ghoul did indeed insult you.”

“When I took out your descent scroll, the Ghoul knew it was you, so it pulled me into the air and dodged the descent scroll you gave me. I suspect that it could tell from the scroll that it was you, so its words were extremely vicious.”

“It said that once it entered this space, it would definitely use the most tragic method to kill you…”

Klein looked down.

He saw the person who had spoken.

“This is James?”

Not bad, not bad!

With his attitude, he was indeed trustworthy.

And most importantly, his strength had exceeded his expectations. From the looks of it, after receiving his benefits, this person had improved tremendously.

As for the rest, Klein didn’t mind.

After all, their statuses were different.

What they saw was honor, but Klein valued the knowledge in the Ghoul’s mind more.

This was because this knowledge was related to the true situation of the catacombs world.

The more he knew, the more help he would be in breaking through the shackles of the catacombs world in the future.

With this in mind, Klein nodded to James.

Although Klein had never been a leader, had he never eaten pork or seen a pig run?

For such loyal subordinates, you had to show them some loyalty.

That way, they wouldn’t think that you didn’t care about these false courtesies.

As a result, over time, this set was abandoned. If there were no reminders, perhaps the loyalty would change because he hadn’t seen Klein for a long time.

As expected.

After Klein nodded at James…

James seemed to have won a lottery ticket worth millions, and he was very excited.

He couldn’t help but think to himself, ‘God Klein remembers me. He remembers me and even recognizes me. That’s great, that’s great. What I did wasn’t in vain, it wasn’t in vain.’

‘As long as I continue working hard, I’ll be accepted by Klein sooner or later. When that happens, God Klein might even acknowledge me and even accept me as his disciple.’

With this in mind, James seemed to see the future.

The future James had a bright future ahead of him.

When everyone saw James, they didn’t mock him at all.

They couldn’t help but feel envious.

Why?

Because who was Klein?

He was the strongest expert in the catacombs world.

Putting aside his strength, even the treasures he had were enough to greatly increase their strength.

Therefore, hugging Klein’s thigh was no less than a life-saving artifact for them.

They were filled with regret.

They regretted not being like James and being more respectful. Wouldn’t that also earn them the favor of God Klein?

Everyone felt as though they had missed out on a hundred billion dollars!

Then, they looked at the Ghoul.

At that moment, the Ghoul’s expression completely changed.

It was originally slightly red, but now?

It was already red and even black.

Why?

One could tell just by looking at its hateful eyes that the killing intent in its eyes when it looked at James had even solidified.

It cursed incessantly in its heart.

‘That damned human actually dares to betray me!’

‘When Klein leaves, I’ll kill you in the most miserable way possible.’

However, it didn’t dare to show the slightest bit of dissatisfaction.

That was because its life was still in Klein’s hands.

However, if these people were to say that, the humans in front of it would be persuaded sooner or later.

After all, they were the humans in front of it.

And most importantly…

The Ghoul felt the pressure on its body increase. It even felt a faint killing intent in the air.

‘Oh no, this human won’t believe them, right?’

‘No, I can’t let these people continue speaking. Otherwise, under the fury of the human in front of me, I’ll definitely die!’

Thinking of this, the Ghoul took a deep breath.

It exclaimed, “No!”

“It’s not like that, it’s not like that. Sir, these people below just wanted you to kill me, so they deliberately said such words.”

“How would I dare to say such words? What kind of existence are you? It’s already good enough for you to strangle me to death. And most importantly, you possess an extremely precious descending scroll. Isn’t the person who possesses such a scroll a powerful figure who can shake the catacombs world?”

Upon hearing the Ghoul’s words, Klein narrowed his eyes.

‘It looks like this Ghoul knows about descending scrolls!’

‘Is it very valuable?’

Klein indicated that it didn’t seem to be of any use.

Therefore, he gave the Ghoul a nonchalant look and said, “It’s very valuable?”

“Valuable? Tell me, how is it valuable?”

Upon hearing Klein’s question, the Ghoul’s eyebrows twitched.

After all, it was an experienced crypt creature.

It naturally knew why Klein had asked this question.

It also knew why Klein hadn’t killed it yet.

‘It looks like this human knows something wrong about the catacombs world. No wonder he hasn’t killed me yet.’

‘However, this is a good thing for me. At least I can keep my life. When the time comes, I’ll make sure to send him away.’

With this in mind, the Ghoul’s lips curled into a smile.

Then, it disappeared in an instant as it pretended to be terrified.

“Your Excellency, according to my memories, there are very few descending scrolls in the entire catacombs world. Other than some large tribes, there are no other people.”

“Large tribes? All of them?” Klein asked again.

“Your Excellency, other than the Dragon tribe that you already know of, there are also the Yeti tribe, the Flying Bird tribe, the Beast tribe, and so on.”

“These large clans are extremely large. Any large clan has hundreds of millions of clansmen, and there are countless experts among them.”

The Ghoul spoke.

After hearing the Ghoul’s answer, Klein nodded.

It seemed like this catacombs world was indeed not simple.

The first level was only the starting point for humans like them.

The truly powerful catacombs were still ahead!

Then there must be a path after tier 10!

It was just that he didn’t know what that realm was.

Following that, Klein asked some more questions.

However, the Ghoul’s answers to these questions were very vague.

Klein knew that the Ghoul had guessed his doubts.
