Chapter 267: Strike First
The appearance of the Silver Frost Brotherhood to cause trouble was not beyond Matthew’s expectations.
Because he had done his homework beforehand, Matthew didn’t think that the Ash Creatures were that difficult to deal with. He had specially pulled so many people along mainly to guard against potential attacks from evil organizations.
As of now, the significance of the Scar of the Dead was becoming more and more obvious.
It was one of the tentacles of the Void Ruler, Yurkus, who was a ‘great being’ believed in by the Order of Calamity. The latter was dedicated to reviving all traces of Yurkus in the prime material plane.
The Evil Art Master Anderson’s previous war against Rolling Stone Town was not to destroy the town but to use the war to create a large number of deaths near the Scar of the Dead.
From this point of view, the Order of Calamity’s goal had been achieved.
They had successfully activated the Scar of the Dead, causing it to enter the recovery phase from its slumber. This was a necessary prerequisite for the Scar of the Dead to accelerate its expansion.
It was also the reason why Matthew’s action attracted the revenge of the Lord of Ashes.
That war had given the Scar of the Dead quite a bit of power.
The dozen carts from the Silver Frost Brotherhood had also helped.
It seems that the Silver Frost Brotherhood took over the banner of Yurkus after the Church of Calamity was accidentally damaged.”
Matthew was not surprised.
Although the Order of Calamity claimed to believe in Yurkus, the sorcerers in the Order were believers of the demons and were essentially the minions of the God of Midnight.
It was impossible for a believer to serve two great existences at the same time.
There were only two possible explanations for this.
The first possibility was that Yurkus and the God of Midnight had reached some kind of agreement, and they were sharing the believers.Ñøv€l-B1n was the first platform to present this chapter.
However, the possibility of this was extremely low.
The sensitivity of the gods to the disloyalty of their believers was unimaginable to outsiders.
In a place like Rolling Stone Town, where there was almost no war, how much did Rheagar need to spend to raise such an army? How did he maintain the combat effectiveness of these knights?
In theory, if an army did not shed blood for a long time, then no matter how well they were trained, they would gradually soften and even degenerate. However, Matthew did not notice any such signs from the knights of the lord’s guards.
Horses galloped.
Matthew heaved a sigh of relief as he watched the knights leave.
The pressure in his heart had been greatly relieved. It was true that guarding Rolling Stone Town was not his mission alone.
In this regard, Rheagar showed an unprecedented positive attitude.
After giving the knights an order, Rheagar climbed up the oak tree nimbly to observe the situation in the distance.
“Matthew, that big guy is coming!”
Rheagar shouted from the top of the tree.
Matthew looked up. He could hear the low wail of the oak tree branches, so he shouted,
“Be careful, don’t stand too high.”
Rheagar looked steady as he clung onto the tree branch, his face full of disapproval.
“This is nothing. Back in Inferno Hell, I even climbed the Devil Tree!” Matthew could only let him be.
His gaze was focused on the big guy who had just appeared in the Scar of the Dead.
Ashen Warrior.
This thing was as tall as two people, and its body was more than twice as burly as the Ashes Pawn. In other aspects, it was dressed like the Pawn. He held a huge meteor hammer in his hand and sparks kept falling from the end of the meteor hammer.
This guy was very cunning.
It didn’t leave the Scar of the Dead immediately. It just walked back and forth near the end..
