It would cause problems if Oliver persuaded the Black Tortoise King to join the fiends.
Morticia frowned and fixed her eyes on Oliver. "Is that so?"
What Darryl said made sense. As soon as they left the demon's territory, they were immediately surrounded by the warriors of the Black Tortoise race. Oliver was highly suspicious. After all, he was the son of the Black Tortoise King.
Oliver was frightened and angry as Morticia questioned him. He quickly said with a bitter face, "Your Excellency, I'm loyal to you. The universe can prove it. Don't listen to Darryl's nonsense."
As he spoke, Oliver glared at Darryl and shouted, "Don't try to frame me for such nonsense. For the past day, I have been following Morticia obediently. I have never secretly sent messages to the Black Tortoise race. Don't slander me."
Darryl chuckled. "Slander you? Then explain the current situation. Your father hasn't got any news. Why is he here?"
"I..." Oliver opened his mouth and blushed, unable to refute Darryl's claims.
He was anxious. Darryl had been stirring up trouble. If he continued to persuade Morticia with his words, Oliver would be more at a disadvantage in this situation.
Suddenly, he came up with an idea.
"Your Excellency, it's a complete coincidence that my father is here. Let me go there and explain everything to my father. He knows the ins and outs of the matter, and will definitely not be hostile to you," he said to Morticia.
'Let Oliver go there?' Morticia did not immediately agree. Instead, she stood there, frowning and thinking. It would be best if Oliver could persuade his father to join the fiends. However, was it that simple?
Just as Morticia was thinking, Darryl said lightly, "Your Excellency, we don't know why the Black Tortoise race is here. If we let Oliver go there rashly, we will only lose our advantage."
As he spoke, he could not help but take a look at Oliver and continued, "If Oliver goes over and the Black Tortoise race starts an attack, we won't be able to win. We'd better let him stay here as a bargaining chip. As long as Oliver is on our side, the Black Tortoise King won't dare to act impulsively."
