Chapter 602: Chapter 387: Return to the Cave_3
’It’s all because of that bastard child!’
After trying for a moment without any effect, Conmonds realized that this was the result of the witchcraft performed by the Wizard in front of him.
He felt both fear and anger in his heart.
Conmonds didn’t know how Colin had found out that Martina hadn’t died last night, but the moment he realized it, he decisively changed his story, and Orkot cleverly cooperated...
Even though their story couldn’t be considered flawless, it was still quite misleading.
’Wizards... they are just too powerful,’ Conmonds’s complexion darkened; he couldn’t think of a reason for Colin’s discernment, nor did he have the mind to think of one.
He silently signaled to the Great Knights beside him with his eyes.
All that could be done had been done, and the time they had been stalling was almost up; it was time to move on to the next step.
No one knew what kind of power the Wizard in front of them would display in the interrogation to come.
He had no confidence in keeping the secret under a Wizard’s interrogation...
Conmonds slightly raised his chin, roaring inwardly with rage, ’Great ancestor Alec, though I may die today! The Wood Family will continue to exist under your guidance and thrive endlessly!’
Whoosh!
Then, Conmonds suddenly pulled out a small dagger and aimed it towards his own eye socket! The originally frail man burst out with an extraordinary speed at this moment.
The Great Knights beside him also started to commit suicide.
Their movements were uniform and quick, as if rehearsed.
No, this resolute and unhesitating appearance, it was more like... they were bewitched?
Taken by surprise, Colin was also slightly startled in his heart.
But fortunately, he hadn’t left, and his reaction was quick!
A tide-like spiritual power spread out, and Conmonds and the others were immediately enveloped within it, becoming rigid.
Conmonds showed a look of despair, aware of the Wizard’s strength, but the power Colin displayed at this moment still deeply shocked him.
But thankfully, judging by time, Danis should have already led the family members out of the Family; there was still hope for the Wood Family!
Someday, the Family will avenge me!
Conmonds calmly closed his eyes, and his body relaxed.
However, he didn’t see Colin, not far away, receiving a message from Frost Shadow and slightly raising an eyebrow.
’No need to intercept, just maintain tracking,’ he commanded the Frost Shadow stationed at the edge of the Wood Family.
After strengthening the Ice Frost Cage with Ice Element, Colin changed his original plan, intending to see where the fleeing party from the Wood Family would go first.
But before leaving, looking at Onions next to him, he had a thought and decided to bring him along as well.
’Lord Colin, where are we going?’ Onions turned his head and asked with confusion.
’Aren’t you curious about what the Wood Family has been hiding from you?’ Colin said, while sensing the direction of Frost Shadow, ’Perhaps in a little while, we will know the secret.’
Inside the Ice Frost Cage, Conmonds watched Colin and the other ascend to the Sky, his expression changing dramatically, and he muttered in disbelief:
’That’s not the direction of the City Lord’s Mansion, why would they go that way...’
Watching the direction Colin and the other were headed, his complexion gradually turned pale.
’Impossible... how could he know?!’
Bang!
Bang, bang, bang!
Conmonds and the few Great Knights suddenly started ramming into the hard ice fence like madmen, their force so fierce that they were bloodied in an instant.
An Ice Element nearby tilted its head slightly.
Creak, creak, creak.
The chill spread out, and ice crystals crawled up the lower legs of Conmonds and the others, pinning them in place.
’Ah!’
After struggling futilely for a moment, Conmonds’s expression immediately turned ashen; his lips quivered continuously, and tears flowed down his aged cheeks:
’Great ancestor Alec, it is your unworthy descendants who brought about such a calamity...’
...
The roaring wind seemed to hit an impenetrable glass barrier and was completely blocked as it neared. Although this was not the first time experiencing it, Onions was still somewhat amazed by the Wizard’s mighty power.
If he were a Knight, no matter how much he trained, he probably couldn’t freely soar through the Sky.
Looking at the streets flashing by below, Onions’s frown deepened... they were flying south of the city?
Before long, a golden sea of wheat that appeared before them confirmed his guess.
But Colin didn’t stop moving forward, instead, he continued on.
Gradually, the golden sea of wheat disappeared from Onions’s view, replaced by a peculiar grey-black area.
They circled overhead a few times, and finally, before Onions’s astonished eyes, they landed in front of an inconspicuous cave entrance.
