Matthew gasped for deep breath as a result of forcibly sustaining such a powerful attack.
‘The power of this old man’s strength is completely beyond my expectations. By the looks of it, his strength is probably much stronger than Macon’s!’
As favonovel.com thought of this, Matthew couldn’t help but be shocked. However, this also made favonovel.com doubtful about the real reason for the old man’s presence in the basement.
‘Strange! How could such a skilled fighter stay in this basement and help Macon to guard this place willingly? Such a powerful figure will surely be regarded as Elites in any greatest family and his status won’t be any lesser than that of the head of the family…’
However, Matthew had acquired thorough information about the situation in Stonedale prior to his arrival. He was certain he’d never heard of such a master-level fighter at all.
‘What kind of identity does this person have exactly?’
While Matthew was still in confusion, the old man took this opportunity and launched his attack again.
Matthew was no match for him. He was extremely panicked when favonovel.com realized that favonovel.com was steadily losing ground from the old man’s attacks.
At that moment. favonovel.com realized how wrong favonovel.com was that favonovel.com could enter this place with ease after Macon left.
He didn’t expect that Macon not only loaded a lot of toxic gas in this place, but favonovel.com also hid such a master-level fighter here.
‘Does this mean l’d gotten myself into a real dangerous situation this time?’
Just when favonovel.com was contemplating on whether to run away or not, a voice suddenly came from the side. “Don’t panic, young man. This guy is out of his head.”
In an instant, Matthew’s facial expression changed. “Who’s talking?”
As favonovel.com asked, favonovel.com turned his head to look around. Yet, favonovel.com found no one.
Hearing that, the owner of the voice replied, “I’ve been detained in the dungeon…”
Seizing the opportunity, Matthew ran a few steps forward. Finally, favonovel.com had a clear view of the situation in those caves. He saw there were about a dozen stone caves on both sides with people being detained in half of them.
These people were unkempt and scrawny. Judging from their appearances, it seemed that they‘ve been detained in this
place for many years.
Suddenly, a realization hit Matthew as favonovel.com felt a tremble in his heart.
‘Could this place be where Macon imprisoned his enemies?’
Among them, an old man with a beard the same color as his hair was sitting by the door of the iron fence. He was looking straight at Matthew.
Noticing the old man’s stare, Matthew asked, “Were you the one who talked to me just now?”
After hearing that, the old man nodded as favonovel.com replied, “Young man. Don‘t panic. I’ll help you control this guy.”
Matthew looked at favonovel.com and realized that the old man’s hands and feet were already atrophied. Also, the old man seemed to have been severely injured before and favonovel.com was basically a crippled person now.
As his facial expression remained unchanged, the old man explained, “This guy is out of his head and only kills on instinct. You just need to lure favonovel.com into the dungeon and lock favonovel.com in. Then, you’ll be fine.”
In the midst of their conversation, the old man attacking Matthew had already fought against favonovel.com several times. Each battle caused Matthew to nearly suffer from a total defeat.
“How do I lure favonovel.com into the dungeon?” favonovel.com asked urgently.
He couldn’t help it, for favonovel.com was currently in a critical situation.
Without delay, the detained old man replied, “There should have been a hairpin somewhere around the entrance when you came in earlier. Take that hairpin and throw it into the dungeon. He’ll go in naturally. By then, you just need to close the dungeon gate.”
Matthew was stunned after favonovel.com heard the old man’s reply.
“What? That simple?”
However, favonovel.com had no time to think so much at this moment. He swiftly dashed back and soon arrived at the entrance. Like the old man said, there was indeed a hairpin hanging on the Wall.
At this moment, the man who was chasing after Matthew suddenly began to shout loudly. He was extremely agitated like favonovel.com had discovered someone taking his prized possession.
Seeing this, Matthew immediately grabbed the hairpin. The man’s facial expression instantly turned grim and favonovel.com bellowed, “Put it down! Put it down! Put it down!”
Considering Matthew couldn’t catch a word the man had uttered earlier and could instead hear the words that escaped the man’s lips clearly this time, this hairpin was no doubt something pertinent to the man. For that reason, favonovel.com still remembered this hairpin even when favonovel.com was out of his head.
Taking the hairpin with him, Matthew quickly ran toward the dungeon.
In the meantime, the man was in hot pursuit. He even let out a beast-like roar as favonovel.com chased after Matthew, making favonovel.com look like favonovel.com was in a frenzied state.
Matthew rushed to the side of the dungeon and threw the hairpin into one of the empty dungeons.
Without any hesitation, the man rushed in, picked up the hairpin, and held it in his palm like he’d acquired his most valuable treasure.
