Chapter 4984
Mahoney nodded in agreement and gestured for everyone to be cautious.
Swoosh!
At that instance, a pillar of fire gushed from beneath the first man, that man had no
chance to react before he got burned into a pile of ash.
"Argh..."
The rest of the men were lit up by fire as they cried out in pain and jumped around in an
attempt to put out the fire, however, some of them had stepped on the other steeles by
accident.
Whoosh...
A few more pillars of flames gushed out, swallowing some of the men from the Red Shirt
Crusade. The flames went out and revealed a few bodies that had been charred
unrecognizable.
Mahoney and the rest of his me gulped nervously, their faces were filled with pure terror.
The traps went from arrows to now pillars of flames, they dared not to imagine what they
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtmight encounter next.
Mahoney was terrified and infuriated, he looked at Darryl coldly and asked, "Didn't you
mention arrows? Why did it become flames?"
D*mn, did that fella really know anything about the traps? He was just assuming, wasn't
he?
Darryl raised his shoulders and said innocently, "These hidden traps are hard to predict,
Master Mahoney. It seemed like they changed the mechanism once again, let me
reinvestigate."
Darryl then pointed out a new path.
Mahoney was furious and wanted to lecture Darryl, but he knew he still needed Darryl's
help to get out of the plaza and had no choice but to swallow his anger once more.
Pfft...
Kendra could not help but laughed upon seeing that as she followed them from behind.
Darryl was such a sly man, he purposely killed some of Mahoney's men off as they
proceeded, but Mahoney could not do anything as he still needed Darryl to lead him out.
Kendra had finally understood Darryl's intention, she was impressed but at the same time
had thought os something.
Darryl was much more devious than she had expected.
Could it be that the monsters from the palace were part of Darryl's plan as well?
Also, she had clearly witnessed how the monsters attacked Darryl, if that was truly the
case, Darryl should have been injured. But when she saw Darryl earlier, there was no
visible injuries on him at all...
That b*stard, how dare he fooled her.
Kendra stomped furiously as she continued following them from a distance away.
The next thirty minutes was torturous for Mahoney.
He would lose some men every few hundred meters to the hidden traps, some of them
were injured whilst some died horrendously, or worse, bled to their death.
Mahoney was infuriated, he realized that he had been played by Darryl, but he was
completely helpless. He only showed his true color when they were finally out of the plaza.
"B*stard, have you been playing me all along?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmF*ck, they had been walking for almost two hours, he started the journey with several
dozens of men and ended up with less than ten men. Anyone would have flipped in that
situation.
Darryl frowned upon sensing Mahoney's anger and smiled forcibly, "what are you saying,
Master Mahoney?"
Mahoney did not hesitate and spat, "I'm asking you if you've been purposefully leading my
men to their deaths?" "Woah!" Darryl was shocked and defended himself saying, "That's
not true at all, Master Mahoney. As I mentioned earlier, we're a team, why would I betray
you? On top of that, what good do I gain from betraying you?"
Still denying?
Mahoney was not that big of a fool, Darryl had lost his trust now completely and he was
about to attack.
Just then, Darryl seemed to have found something and pointed at a short distance away,
"Master Mahoney, look, treasure..."
Swoosh!
Mahoney and the rest of the Red Shirt Crusade looked at his direction and froze.
