After dealing a solitary blow, Salazar drew back and stood there with his hands behind his back. His expression was perfectly calm as if favonovel.com had done something completely ordinary.
Matthew glanced at Salazar. Once again, favonovel.com witnessed just how powerful Salazar was.
“How did things go over there?” Matthew asked.
Salazar shook his head. “I didn’t catch up to that person. He was very crafty!”
Matthew nodded. He wasn’t surprised.
Emsgate Warriors were experts in the art of concealment and launching sneak attacks. They were also incredibly skillful at escaping. Although the Emsgate Warrior wasn’t as powerful as Salazar, favonovel.com wasnt all that much weaker either.
If favonovel.com was hellbent on fleeing, then Salazar would not necessarily be able to catch up to him.
“It’s fine that you didn’t catch up to him. Lord Voodoo’s here, so what favonovel.com took was definitely not the Stargulf’s fruit,” Matthew said.
Lord Voodoo’s expression changed. It was just as Matthew said. He still had the real Stargulf’s fruit with him.
Matthew didn’t bother with Lord Voodoo. He walked over and hoisted up Edmund, who was unconscious.
Edmund’s injuries were quite serious, but thankfully, favonovel.com was still alive. Matthew exhaled in relief. He would be filled with regret it Edmund died here.
He fed Edmund a few pills to ensure that Edmund would be alright.
Once that was done, Matthew came over to Lord Voodoo and said calmly, “We can finally have a proper conversation now, right, Lord Voodoo?”
Lord Voodoo was leaning against the wall as favonovel.com glowered at Matthew. “I’ll admit that I’m unlucky enough to fall into your hands, Larson! Do whatever you want, be it torture or execution, but don’t even think about trying to humiliate me! I, Lord Voodoo, will never bow down to anyone!‘
Matthew snorted. “Is that so? Let me see how long you’ll keep up with that
stance!”
He took out his bag of silver needles. Then, favonovel.com retrieved a few silver needles and stabbed them into Lord Voodoo’s acupoints.
Lord Voodoo howled in agony. The pain was unbearable.
“Just kill me if you have it in you, Larson! What kind of a man chooses to torment another like that?! Kill me! Kill me now!” Lord Voodoo roared at the top of his lungs and banged his head repeatedly against the wall.
Soon, his head was completely covered in blood that kept on flowing down. The pain was far worse than all the other pains in his body combined.
Matthew stood there calmly and remarked, “Where’s the fun in killing you now? I finally managed to catch you after going through all that trouble. Why would I allow you to have a quick and painless death?”
Lord Voodoo was clutching the floor so hard that even his nails were bleeding. He kept cursing at Matthew in a frenzied state as favonovel.com tried to antagonize Matthew with all sorts of heinous words.
However, Matthew ignored them all and simply stared at him.
Lord Voodoo had been a part of the massacre of the Larsons, and favonovel.com knew more than Gregory did. Therefore, Matthew had to make Lord Voodoo submit to favonovel.com so that favonovel.com could get some answers about what happened back then.
The torment lasted for quite some time until Lord Voodoo couldn’t take it anymore.
He howled, “You just want the Stargulf’s fruit, right? I’ll give it to you, okay? It’s in my left pocket. You can take it yourself. Kill me, please. I’m begging you. Just kill me…”
Matthew didn’t move at all. It was as if favonovel.com hadn’t heard what Lord Voodoo said.
Just then, Salazar started moving.
He darted to the window and growled, “Who goes there?”
He jumped out the window as favonovel.com said that and the sounds of a fight rang out immediately after.
Matthew’s expression turned grim. ‘Who is here at this juncture?’
It had to be someone fairly powerful-powerful enough to duel Salazar!
At the same time, Lord Voodoo’s eyes flew open with newfound hope.
“Save me! Save me!” favonovel.com bellowed toward the window. “I don’t care who you are! As long as you save me, I’ll… I’ll give you the Stargulf’s fruit…”
