Chapter 1064 Phoenix Grave Geraldâs eyes twitched intensely as he said, âThere are oven experts at the eternal level of Flame Decay working as assassins?â
âThis guy is insane!â Xavier exclaimed, âHeâs Killshotâs top assassin. Before that, he was quite famous in Havotune. But you might not believe it â the day he became an Eternal Flame Decayer, he killed all the high-ranking members of his own clan, as well as all the talented young people.â Gerald gasped in surprise! âWhy?â he couldnât help but ask.
âBecause his parents died while carrying out a mission, he blamed their deaths on the family,â Xavier said. âLater, he took on a big job, not knowing who issued it, to assassinate the Empress of Infinito!â Geraldâs expression changed. âMoreover, he almost succeeded.
Empress Regina was seriously injured by him,â Xavier said. âHowever, he didnât manage to kill her, and this guy even managed to escape from Infinito. At that time, because of Empress Reginaâs severe injuries, both Elder Swordsman and Alcoholic were furious. The two of them chased him with their swords across half a planet, and eventually, he hid on Promise Island. Somehow, he managed to evade their pursuit. Later, they came to Promise Island a few times to search for him, but itâs actually quite easy to hide someone on Promise Island, so they never found him. Later on, he became a hitman for Killshot. Although heâs an Eternal Flame.
Decayer, heâs still a loner without a base, elusive and hard to track. But occasionally, he would take action and assassinate some people.â At this point, he looked at Gerald and said, âI canât believe Micah actually hired this madman to hunt us down. This time, the trouble weâre in... itâs probably huge!â Gerald furrowed his brow. âUm, Mr. Callum, can you let me go now?â the person below asked.
Xavier furrowed his brow and shook his head, saying, âI canât let you go for now. What if you continue to follow us!â âAre you really planning to let him go?â Gerald asked, frowning.
âSince youâve given your word, you must keep your promise!â Xavier shook his head and hoisted him up, saying, âAfter we leave this place, weâll let you go. You have no objections, right?â âOf course, I have no objections. I trust Xavier Callumâs reputation,â
the person hurriedly said.
Regarding Xavierâs actions, Gerald didnât have much to say. He believed that asking for enough information was sufficient, and whether to kill or not to kill didnât really matter. This person was just a small fry and wouldnât play a crucial role. âWe must hurry and leave this place,â Gerald said, looking at Xavier.
âI know itâs dangerous to travel at night, but itâs still better than running into that madman Nolan!â Xavier said, âLetâs go back and inform the others to leave!â Gerald nodded The two of them quickly returned to their base, and Xavier loudly woke everyone up. After briefly explaining the situation, they set off in the middle of the night with one motorcycle and two off-road Kover cars, leaving their current location behind!
About an hour or two after they left, several hovering off-road vehicles approached the area. âBoss, the trail has gone cold!â At this moment, someone whispered next to the hover car.
âHmm?â In the car, Micah frowned and asked, âWhatâs going on?â âI guess... someone might have been discovered by them.
The markings were left around here, but then they disappeared.â The voice outside continued to speak.
Micah furrowed his brow, and at this moment, he looked towards a person wearing a cloak beside him, whose face was unclear, and said, âMr. Goodwin, they are traveling overnight in the Misty Mound Forest, so their speed must not be very fast. And the destination of those guys is definitely the base of the Archaic Tribe. If we move in a straight line, we should be able to intercept them on the way. However, there is something unusual happening in the Misty Mound Forest, and traveling overnight might be dangerous.â
âLetâs go!â At this moment, a hoarse voice came from the figure beside him, saying, âFull speed ahead.â âFurthermore!â he said calmly, âEverything they possess shall also belong to me.â
âAlright!â Micah nodded hastily, and then ordered, âTravel through the night at full speed.â In the midst of Gerald and his companionsâ pursuit, atop Havotune, the Fallen Phoenix Mountain!
Due to the time difference, the sun was still shining brightly over Fallen Phoenix Mountain. Carolyn stared in disbelief at the âwildlingâ kneeling before her, her face full of astonishment! He couldnât imagine why, on this Havotune, there would be anyone other than them who could speak English!
âDo you speak English? Who exactly are you?â Carolyn asked. Inside the car, Fenton wore a look of astonishment, as he realized he couldnât understand a word Carolyn was saying. From a distance, the wildling heard Carolynâs words and became visibly more excited. He trembled slightly, crawling on the ground, stuttering with devotion, âYou...
you and the Holy Lord... come... come from the... same... place. I... finally... finally, Iâve been waiting for...â He spoke each word with great difficulty, and Carolyn found it equally challenging to listen. âWho... who are you, really?â She still had a guarded expression on her face.
âI... am... I am the Grave... Guardian.â As he spoke, he extended one hand and pointed behind him, saying, âGrave... Guardian, P-Phoenix... Grave...â Carolyn could feel that the person in front of her had completely retracted their imposing aura, and there was no longer any hostility emanating from them. She slowly let down her guard and asked in English, âAre you saying that you guard the Phoenix Grave, and that this place is the legendary Phoenix Grave that truly exists in the tales?â
âRight!â The person hurriedly nodded and said, âPlease... follow... follow me!â As he spoke, he turned around and walked towards a certain direction nearby!
Carolyn pondered for a moment, thinking that since she was already here, it wouldnât hurt to take a look. This wildling seemed to be a bit slow-witted, and besides... he appeared to have no hostility towards her. Alright, Iâll drive and go with you!â Carolyn said.
Squeak! Squeak! Squeak!
The Wildling quickly nodded, making a series of squeaking noises from their mouth. Carolyn got into the car, and as Fenton saw her start the engine, he asked in astonishment, âWhat are you doing?â
âThat Wildling said theyâd take me to the Phoenix Grave, Iâll go check it out,â Gerald said. Fentonâs hairs stood on end, and he couldnât help but exclaim in horror, âYou... want to go with him? Heâs a madman, a murderous maniac!â
âIf youâre scared, you can wait for me down here,â Carolyn said with a smile. Fenton was stunned, looking around at the numerous corpses surrounding him. He couldnât help but shiver and said, âIâll go with you!â
Carolyn started the hover car, and although they were in the dense forest, the vehicle could fly, so navigating through narrow spaces wasnât an issue.
They continued to venture deeper into the heart of Fallen Phoenix Mountain. The closer Carolyn got, the more intense the palpitations and fear in her heart became, and the surrounding temperature continued to rise as well.
Before long, Carolyn saw a gorge up ahead, and just below it, a sight that made her scalp tingle with unease! In this place, towering trees stood tall, and on the trunks of these trees, desiccated corpses hung upside down!
