Chapter 726: Sacrificial Moment and the Magical Use of the Earth-Digging Worm
Translator: Lonelytree
” You may not know, but part of my power now comes from the Void Whale. It’s a very great life form, and it’s sworn enemies with the legendary Void Lord of the Order of Calamity, Yurkus. All of Yurkus’ tricks are exposed to the Void Whale, and I don’t think the Order of Calamity can fool me.”
Matthew nodded.
” Even if the White Deer is behind it, do you think the Order of Calamity would be unprepared?
” You and I both know that this is a loyalty test. The essence of the loyalty test is that any doubts and twists and turns may lead to all previous efforts being wasted.
“Do you really think that if one person escaped and the other reported it, you would be able to gain Mary Joshua’s trust? If she were that stupid, the Order of Calamity would have been paralyzed long ago.”
Zangula revealed a thoughtful expression.
” You’re right, but this is a rare opportunity. If we don’t take this chance, what’s the point of sneaking in?”
He looked unwilling.
Matthew said calmly,
“Aren’t you and I hiding here for a greater goal?
” As the soul of nature, the Holy White Deer should know what is the best way to repay this land.
” As a registered Mage of the Seven Saint Alliance, I will do my best to ensure his safety. But before that, I suggest we do nothing.”
Zangula frowned.
After a long time.
He sighed.
“Alright, I’ll listen to you this time, but if there’s a chance like this again, I’ll rely on my own judgment.”
Matthew didn’t say much.
Both of them had their own goals, and borrowing the name of the Seven Saint Alliance could only make Zangula listen to him temporarily.
The two of them had a common enemy, so there was room for cooperation.
However, friction during communication was inevitable.
Matthew secretly made up his mind.
After that, he would try his best to reduce his encounters with Zangula, and the best way out would be for the two of them to go their separate ways.
In the dark tunnel.
The little phase horse trotted happily.
It seemed to be forever carefree. Even if it bumped into a wall, it could still tilt its neck and forcefully twist it away.
The two people in the carriage fell silent.
Not long after.
There was an even louder knocking sound coming from the wooden box behind him.
“Dong dong dong!
“Save me, save me!”
The cry for help suddenly turned into the voice of a young girl!
Zangula looked back.
His eyes immediately became a little afraid.
“What’s wrong?”
Matthew asked lightly.
” There’s a naked girl inside.”
Zangula’s voice was a little low.
” The Holy White Deer just disappeared. You’re right. The Order of Calamity wouldn’t just hand the Holy White Deer over to us.
“This is a smokescreen. I actually failed to see through it…
“But that’s not right. What I saw just now was clearly the Holy White Deer. My eyes can’t be wrong!”
His voice was filled with self-doubt and contradiction.
Matthew looked back.
His perception was completely blocked by the black box barrier, and he could not see what was inside at all.
He could not help but think,
” If Zangula’s vision is affected by the black box enchantment, then he should be unable to see anything like me.
” If he wasn’t affected, then what he saw should be real, or at least on the surface.
“Could it be that there’s actually a shapeshifter inside? Randomly changing into a different form every time? But why did the shapeshifter turn into a Holy White Deer?”
Matthew was puzzled.
He couldn’t think about the significance of this thing from the perspective of the Order of Calamity.
After all, the cultists had a different way of thinking than ordinary people. What if they really thought that the loyalty test would require a big bait?
In short.
Matthew’s attitude towards the box became even more cautious.
On the way.
From time to time, he made Zangula look back.
After some time, Zangula would see some changes in the box.
The first was the Holy White Deer.
The second time was a naked girl;
The third time was a giant jellyfish floating in the air.
The fourth time was an upside-down vampire;
However, he did not have the time to see the fifth change.
The sound of dense footsteps suddenly came from the quiet path ahead.
Puff!
Magic flames lit up.
Matthew looked at it.
They saw a group of Witherer Disciples bump into them.
Most of the Witherer Disciples were the same as the ones they saw on the surface. They were crazy and bloodthirsty, and they surged up as soon as they saw people.
However, this time…
There was a leader-like character among the Witherer Disciples.
He seemed to be able to command the other Witherer Disciples.
Under his suppression, some of the Witherer Disciples retreated a distance.
He walked to the front.
“Give me the things in the car. I can give you money, a lot of money.” the leader said in a low voice.
However, no one in the carriage answered him.
He was welcomed by a long and strange magic syllable!
“Wait, I can give you a hundred…”
Before the leader could finish his sentence.
The space around him and the other disciples instantly distorted. The Deceleration Field and the Silence Halo overlapped, and their movements became extremely slow.
The panic of the Witherer Disciples did not last long.
Three short seconds later.
Two huge scissors emerged from the rocky walls on both sides.
