Chapter 723: I’m His Dog
Translator: Lonelytree
But at this moment.
Something unexpected happened.
A portion of the wild beasts suddenly turned into human figures in green robes.
These humans screamed and rushed towards the carriage.
However, they did not get too close.
Instead, they threw large pieces of black powder with their bare hands from afar!
The black powder looked like coal powder from afar.
Only when they got close could they feel a strong stench!
“Pay attention to dodging!”
Mary Joshua reminded loudly.
She was shouting at Matthew and White Helmet.
White Helmet was not an ordinary person. He relied on his outstanding agility to dodge the powder.
Matthew couldn’t dodge it.
However, he shook his clothes and threw an Untainted Dust on himself. All the powder was swept to the side.
Seeing this scene.
Mary could not help but heave a sigh of relief.
In the next moment.
A low chant sounded.
A strange magic power erupted from the stone forest.
Immediately after.
Matthew watched as a man wearing a shaman-like mask walked out of the stone forest.
His hair was dishevelled, and his body was covered in tiny bones and green leaves.
As he chanted.
Those who were covered in black powder disappeared from their spots!
Matthew suddenly showed an interesting expression.
“This is…Mass exile?”
He finally reacted.
On the data panel.
[Hint: You have used ” Untainted ” to remove the bone powder of a creature from another world.
[You are immune to the group banishment of unknown targets.]
So that was the case.
” First, by scattering the bone powder of the foreign creatures on the target, the target will be identified as a foreign creature in a short period of time. Therefore, the group exile will take effect. This casting idea is a little novel.”
Matthew stared at the shaman. The latter’s aura made Matthew feel familiar.
He was about to make his move.
However, Mary Joshua grabbed him.
“You leave first!
“You and White Helmet, escort the carriage in the center. Follow the directions on the map and walk to the location marked by the black cross. No matter what happens on the road, escort is the most important! Do you understand?”
As she spoke.
Without any explanation, she dragged Matthew and the man in the white helmet and forced the two of them into the carriage.
The other little phase horses obediently moved aside.
“But we can stay and help you.”
Matthew was stunned.
“Although our people have all been exiled, we can completely delay them until they return.”
The White Helmet also expressed a similar attitude.
Mary Joshua said without a change in expression,
“We do have a chance to hold on until they come back, but I’m not sure what else will happen next.
“I’m familiar with the road conditions here. It’s suitable for us to cover the rear. The two of you, remember to protect the things in this cage. You can’t open it without permission!
“Move!”
As she spoke, she patted the little phase horse’s butt.
The latter galloped forward, pulling Matthew and the White Helmet along as they squeezed past their compatriots and escaped without any obstructions.
Behind them.
Mary Joshua started fighting with the remaining wild beasts.
Very quickly.
Her tragic figure disappeared into the darkness.
In the empty tunnel.
Only the excited cheers of the beasts were left.
Matthew and the white helmet looked at each other, their gazes subtle.
The carriage ran for two to three kilometres.
Neither of them said a word.
However, at this moment, a strong knocking sound suddenly came from the wooden cage behind them!
“Let me out!”
“Let me out!”
It was a voice that was weak and soft, making it hard to tell its gender.
The two of them turned around at the same time.
“What’s inside?”
The man in the white helmet spoke first.
Matthew snorted.
“Who knows?
“I do want to open it and take a look, but unfortunately, it’s better to forget about it at this time.”
The white helmet looked at him with interest and suddenly laughed softly.
“I didn’t expect us to be so trusted.
“The most important thing is actually being escorted by us.”
Matthew also laughed.
” This shows that Lady Mary values us very much.”
White Helmet laughed dryly.
“To be honest, I’m a little flattered.”
Matthew patted him on the shoulder.
” That’s a good thing. As long as we can complete this mission successfully, we might be able to rise up in the Church of Calamity in the future.”
White Helmet didn’t look so optimistic.
“Do you really think things are that simple?
” I’ve often heard that the businesses of the Church of Calamity are all deadly. Aren’t you afraid?”
Matthew yawned nonchalantly.
” It doesn’t matter. Before I joined the Order of Calamity, I often dealt with life and death.”
The man in the white helmet looked at him silently.
He seemed to be evaluating the truth of this sentence.
The carriage continued on for a while.
When they reached a fork in the road.
Matthew glanced at the map given by Mary Joshua and chose to go left.
At this moment.
White Helmet suddenly said faintly,
“I think we should be honest with each other. You are not an ordinary necromancer.”
Matthew smiled.
” Are you going to admit that you’re an ordinary ranger?
” As far as I know, even an ordinary ranger can make that thing useful when drunk.
” It’s not a good habit to lie to the Patriarch as soon as you join the Church.”
The white-armoured man was stunned and immediately retorted,
“Didn’t you lie to her too?
“I checked your lower body when it was chaotic just now. It’s very healthy.”
