The masked man sneered as he took a piece of meat out and threw it toward the sky. The cyclops canine rushed forward in excitement as he opened his mouth to swallow that piece of meat, letting out a crunch! "I thought you guys were smart enough to escape to some special place. Who would have expected you guys to still be here? Do you think that the mist around this place can prevent you from being detected by the cyclops canine? This is hilarious and childish. You people really look down on the cyclops canine's capabilities.”
The masked man stretched out his hand and caressed the cyclops canine's huge head. The pointy-chin man from the Corpse Pavilion chuckled as he looked at
Fane and the rest. He had a smirk on his face as he spoke with his sharp voice, "Do you think that the cyclops canine my eldest senior brother has with him is a normal cyclops canine? Today, we shall give you some insight. This cyclops canine was groomed with our pavilion's secret method and an unknown amount of spirited crystals were spent on him.
Although he isn’t strong in fighting, his senses are three to four times stronger than usual cyclops canines. Although the surrounding mist has a certain barrier effect, it isn’t sufficient to block this cyclops canine’s senses!"
Jed and Dwight closed their eyes at the same time as despair filled their hearts. Their last hope was gone and they were unable to evade the attack. The masked man sneered and he looked relaxed like a cat who had successfully captured a
mouse. He was not in any hurry and he wanted to toy with the captured mouse around before he kills it. "To be honest, I could have captured you people the moment you step into the mist area. However, I didn’t because I want to see what you guys were planning to do. I thought that maybe you guys ran over here to meet the others. It looks like I’ve been overthinking it..."
Fane lowered his eyes and secretly thought to himself, ‘No wonder these people were moving so slowly.' However, he was able to see how cruel this masked man was. He slowly forced them into a desperate situation and gave them some hope before instantly crushing them. The masked man must love this feeling that brought him a hint of satisfaction when he saw the despair on the faces of these people. How could normal people remain calm when they encounter somebody like this. Fane took a glance to his side and sure enough, Jed was trembling badly.
Although he was a brave man, he could not help but feel a wave of chilliness when facing a person like this. Dwight was still able to remain calm and Albion was extremely calm as he seemed to have accepted his miserable fate.
The masked man took a four-feet scimitar out of his storage space. The weapon was red as blood and had a hint of eccentricity to it, causing others to feel a wave of chilliness after they looked at it. "You guys were able to escape from me previously and I wasted so much time tracking you down. It would be a blessing for all of you and a waste of my time if I let you die easily.”
What he said caused the group of five, who was frightened, to be extremely stressed out. This was the worst ending for them as they were not even allowed to die in peace. They could be tortured until they begged for their deaths before they were allowed to die. The members of the Corpse Pavilion had always been well known for their cruel ways and were extremely proficient in torturing others.
Jed's hands started trembling so badly that the weapon he held tightly, started to tremble too. However, he was not a coward who would just give up and accept his fate. "It's just death! I will make sure that I pull them into hell with me if I am going to die. Guys, listen to me! We can’t just allow them to kill us without fighting back!"
The masked man started laughing coldly until his shoulders started trembling when he heard what Jed said. To him, Jed’s inspirational speech at this moment was a joke. With his presence, how could he allow them to kill the disciples of his pavilion!
Nash frowned as he lowered his voice to speak to Fane, "What should we do? Shall we just stand here and wait for our deaths?" Nash was also filled with despair at that moment. Although he knew that Fane had some hidden means, he did not know what Fane had up his sleeves. He wondered if they were able to escape the place if they took the Mustard Seed out at this moment.
