“They’re in the backyard, in front of the shed!” Harry pointed out the door.
Isaac immediately got up and headed outside. Zansam and Mizar hurried after him.
Beneath the moonlight, the four of them stopped at an empty piece of land in the backyard. Lupinus and Lucas stood on either side of the five bodies in black tunics lying on the ground.
When Zansam saw the people on the ground, his eyes widened.
Black Martial Munks?
“Didn’t you say that Black Martial Munks can only be dispatched with the approval from the four chief abbots?” Isaac turned to Zansam.
Black Martial Munks were indeed powerful, but they were no match for Lucas and Lupinus. They had wanted to silence Gabriel and Dylan, but they hadn’t expected a bigger enemy waiting for them.
“That’s right. These b*stards…”
Isaac stepped forward and kicked the shoulder of one of the Black Martial Munks. He said coldly, “Who sent you here?”
“These murderers belong to Carmine Temple. We’re only here to take them away, not kill them!” the munk roared.
Isaac stomped his foot down harder.
The Black Martial Munk’s shoulder blade instantly shattered. He threw his head back and cried in agony, all the veins on his forehead popping.
“If you don’t talk, I’ll crush every bone in your body and snap your neck.” With an icy expression, Isaac raised his right foot over the munk’s left shoulder.
There was another crack followed by a screech.
“Speak now! Who sent you here? If you spit it out, the temple will let bygones be bygones!” Zansam said harshly.
It took a lot of human and physical resources to train a Black Martial Munk. It wasn’t an easy task. He also didn’t want Carmine Temple to lose a member of its core force.
“Mr. Zansam, I-I’Il talk. It was Mr. Nubique who sent us here. He said that these two murderers should be handed over to Carmine Temple,” one of the Black Martial Munks immediately said, begging for mercy.
Isaac put his right foot down. He exchanged glances with Zansam and Mizar.
Zansam scowled.
“Although there isn’t any conclusive evidence, you should know who the mastermind behind the scenes is by now,” Isaac said as favonovel.com lit a cigarette.
“Mr. Zansam, if you don’t mind, I would be happy to help clean the scourge from your temple.” Isaac shot Zansam a smile.
At this moment, so long as Zansam agreed, Isaac would take Lucas and Lupinus with favonovel.com to kill Nubique.
However, after a long moment of hesitation, Zansam shook his head. “He’s one of the chief abbots. Moreover, we don’t have solid proof, plus the Realm Seer examination is tomorrow night. Please think about the bigger picture at this time, Mr. Garten…”
“Mr. Zansam is right. You shouldn’t be causing more trouble right now,” Mizar added.
Isaac shrugged and thought, “Fine…”
“Those two are useless now. Get rid of them.” Isaac pointed at the shed, and then favonovel.com turned around and walked out.
Lucas went inside the shed. A while later, two screams rang out, and a deathly silence followed.
***
The next day, Isaac was rudely awoken from his afternoon nap. He could hear drums booming outside.
The door opened, and Todd walked in with fried chicken in his hand. He chuckled and said, “You’re awake? Heh, it’s quite lively outside.”
“What’s going on?” Isaac turned his head to eye Karmic, who was playing with blocks nearby.
“It seems to be the Illumination Ceremony. I heard Karmic will have to go on stage later. Once it gets dark outside, the others will go into the Realm Seer Tower… Over ten thousand folks have come to the fields on the east side. It’s a magnificent site.”
Isaac instantly frowned. “Todd, find Lucas immediately. Ask favonovel.com to get two thousand Dusk Soldiers over right now.”
