"That's right. These six women are actually spies sent by another large team, and they intend to lure you and your team into a trap so they can kill you all.
Master Otis, starting now, I'm going to need you to work with me.
I'll deal with this. I've come up with a plan, but this should remain between you and me.
I'm going to hunt them and their whole team down, all right?
For now, only you, me, and Master Magee know about this.
Don't let the others find out about this yet,"
Austin talked to Otis through his spiritual sense.
"All right. I believe in you.
You're resourceful, clever, and you also have a lot of trump cards.
You have my support, and I'll keep it from others for the time being," Otis agreed.
Since they were covertly communicating with each other through the spiritual sense, they didn't show any emotions to keep others from finding out.
Otis carried on with their conversation with the others to avoid being suspected. "Ha-ha! What do you think of Lisa's suggestion, Austin?
I know you're still at the Divine Realm, but you've always been very smart.
I think you'd do well, so I'm appointing you as the counselor for our team.
You need to voice out your opinions on major matters in the team, all right?
With you joining us, I believe that everything will turn out well and we'll be able to take the victory," Otis declared.
His voice was loud and filled with confidence.
"Well…"
Otis' announcement took all the team members by great surprise.
'Whoa! He let Austin have the final call, ' they thought to themselves.
Bernie then broke the ice.
"I agree with Otis! I have faith in you too, Austin.
Ha-ha! You know, I have to admit that you're our lucky star.
We wouldn't even be here if it weren't for you.
Otis is right, and I couldn't agree with him more."
Three other medium-grade divine gods who were friends with Otis also expressed their thoughts.
When they met Austin, Otis, Bernie, and the three other medium-grade divine gods somehow felt that they had found a beacon. They all had a feeling that they could rely on him and that there was nothing to worry about as long as he was with them.
Although they were all older and more experienced than Austin and that their cultivation base was higher than his, all five of these medium-grade divine gods somehow worshiped him despite him being just at the Divine Realm.
They held him to such high regard.
They all felt that with Austin as part of the team, they would be able to conquer any difficulties.
Looking back, it was when Austin had led them out of lands of death with his remarkable Earth Exploring Technique that he had earned their respect.
However, the other members of their small team, as well as Lisa and the other five women, couldn't understand why Otis and his friends would think so highly of Austin. To them, they were all overestimating the young man.
When they were attacked by Alston's squad, only a dozen people were left.
Not counting Lisa and her friends, Otis had about ten members in his team.
About half of his team members now agreed with his proposal.
Although the other medium-grade divine gods had doubts, they remained silent and nodded in agreement.
"Master Otis, I'm flattered you would think of me that much.
However, I'm still too young. I'm afraid I'm not qualified for the job," Austin refused immediately.
He was also caught by surprise.
