Chapter 112: The Stuart Family
"Jumped down from such a high place and actually didn't die!"
"Is this guy even human!"
Buzzing discussions arose in the dense forest, and the demon hunters looked at William in amazement.
The latter turned around, staring solemnly at the old castle.
At this time, the snake shadow monster opened its giant mouth.
A large amount of poison fog surged out from inside, spreading in all directions, seeing that it was about to submerge everyone.
"Damn it! Can't escape!"
"Take out the 'Heart of Blackwater' quickly!"
The demon hunters' faces changed drastically, and they took out their life-saving items respectively.
William was just about to act, but several sounds of breaking air suddenly came from the air.
Whoosh... whoosh... whoosh...
Three feathered arrows shot from a distance, firmly inserting into the ground in front of the group of demon hunters.
In the next moment, the poison fog also arrived at the right time.
Gusts of wind suddenly swept up in the dense forest, reversing all the poison fog and forming a vortex around the castle.
William looked in the direction where the feathered arrows flew and soon saw a figure.
The other party shuttled between the tree canopies, and not long after, a man came to the front.
Yellow-black skin, holding a longbow, patterns painted on his face with some pigment, and a braided band with patterns on his head. Judging from his appearance, this person obviously came from the local tribe of Saint Frian.
"The Stuart family."
At this time, Sadie walked over and said.
William understood in his heart; this was another family suspected of possessing a "Trait."
"I am Damian Stuart."
Damian performed a strange etiquette, then walked up to Sadie.
"Madam, please leave the Plague Zone immediately and complete the 'reshaping' of the seal."
He seemed certain that the "Trait" was on Sadie.
Immediately after, Damian looked at the others.
"Everyone, hold the monster back with me until this lady leaves safely."
As soon as this remark came out, it immediately caused resistance from the demon hunters.
"Why should you command us?"
"So the 'Trait' is in the hands of the Allard family."
"Did Allard join hands with the Cooper dogs this time?"
Facing the doubts, Damian spoke calmly.
"The competition is over. At this time, the poison fog is impacting the seal. Do you want to lose your home in Saint Frian?"
Demon hunters certainly didn't want to see such a result.
But similarly, they didn't want to lose the "Trait" just like that.
William watched the show from the side.
This demon hunter of the Stuart family didn't seem to care about the ownership of the "Trait."
Like Lance, they just wanted to end this disaster in the South.
But unfortunately, this guy underestimated people's obsession with "benefits."
Sure enough, someone stood up quickly.
"Stuart family."
At this time, Theo snorted lightly.
"I say, let fists decide who the 'Trait' should belong to."
These words were approved by other demon hunter families present.
Seeing that at this moment, these people still couldn't let go of the greed in their hearts.
Damian stopped speaking immediately.
He took out three feathered arrows again, then shot them in the direction away from the castle.
A moment later, several loud noises came.
Cracks appeared on those roads originally leading away.
A large amount of thick poison fog surged out from inside, and there were even many monsters.
Now everyone's retreat was blocked.
After doing this, Damian took out a metal square box carved with three golden spheres.
He gave the box to Sadie.
"Madam, it can protect you and lead you to find the location of the 'exit'. The High Priest is already waiting for you there."
Then he signaled beside him; that was the only road to leave here.
"Why help us?" Sadie looked puzzled.
"I didn't help anyone; this is our family's mission." Damian shook his head.
Seeing this, Sadie nodded, then looked at William and the others.
"Sorry, Madam, only you can leave; others have to stay and help."
Damian blocked Sadie's line of sight.
"But..."
Sadie wanted to say more, but William gave her a reassuring look.
If William really wanted to leave, nothing here could stop him.
Moreover, the means he arranged earlier had not been used yet.
"Be careful."
Sadie could only nod, then left quickly.
"Hey! Stop!"
Immediately, a demon hunter tried to stop her, but a feathered arrow was inserted at that person's feet; the warning meaning was clear.
"Do you think you alone can deal with all of us?"
Demon hunters approached together.
But Stuart ran towards a big tree.
Relying on his agile skills, the former soon disappeared among the tree canopies.
The air fell into silence for a while.
"Hey! Running away, what's that about?"
"Wasn't he quite tough just now!"
Seeing this, the group of demon hunters showed ridicule.
They didn't intend to entangle with this person either, and immediately ran towards that intact road.
Whoosh... whoosh...
Feathered arrows inserted into the ground again, but it was unknown from which direction they were shot.
"Damn guy!"
"Your means are too insidious!"
Obviously, everyone understood Damian's purpose.
Destroy the road first, then force the demon hunters to confront the monster.
This move is really... not bad!
William nodded approvingly; this is the correct posture for "asking" people to do things.
At the same time, the three feathered arrows blocking the poison fog earlier were also retracted.
Now the demon hunters really had to find a way to protect themselves.
Curses and pleas were endless.
And during this time just now, the snake shadow monster had been releasing poison fog.
Seeing that the attack didn't work, it could only use the most traditional method—physical attack.
Thus, a battle between demon hunters and the snake shadow monster began.
Firearms, explosives, close combat...
Although the scene was spectacular at first, and the demon hunters hurt the monster's main body.
And Damian also showed impressive strength.
But in an accident, Damian lost his feathered arrows, and at the same time, the snake shadow monster drove the poison fog again.
Soon, the demon hunters fell into a hard fight.
Many people were injured immediately, and Theo also lost an arm.
Just as the giant mouth of the snake shadow monster bit towards Damian, its huge body suddenly stopped on the spot.
It seemed to be suppressed by some power, unable to gain freedom even if it resisted with all its might.
"This is?"
Damian discovered the anomaly.
He saw strands of white light emerge on the surface of the snake shadow monster, giving people a comfortable and reassuring feeling.
He felt a pure power in these lights.
And aside, a priest was chanting with a scripture book.
"That guy seems to be the companion of that Miss Sadie."
Damian recognized the other party.
"Could this be his doing?"
On the other side.
William opened the "Sacred Rituals" chapter of the Exorcism Bible.
When setting traps earlier, he also arranged a set of church rituals according to the content inside, named—Holy Water Soul Burial.
This is a high-level exorcism ritual—using high-year holy water as an opportunity, it can purify all evil souls within the range.
William suspected that the guy under the cellar had an extraordinary origin, so he gave the other party enough respect.
"The Lord's will cleanses the evil in the world, bringing blessings and purification with holy water..."
Accompanied by his voice, several water columns suddenly rose into the sky around the castle.
They gathered together, forming a "creature" like a snake, nearly a hundred meters long just by body length.
Then this "creature" pounced on the snake shadow monster.
Sizzle... hiss...
In just one encounter, the body of the snake shadow monster shrank by a circle.
It twisted constantly, trying to escape from the confinement of the Holy Water Dragon Shadow.
But no matter what...
"Th... what kind of power is this."
"Is it the descent of the Sun God?"
"Idiot! He's from the Church!"
