When the three Mutant Knight saw their comrade's body, their faces changed for the worse.
They quickly went to their comrade's body and wanted to put it down but when they saw the rope that hung the body's neck, their faces changed for the worse.
Hair!
The hair of the dead bodies separated from their scalps and turned into ropes, hanging their comrade to death.
Contly checked the five bodies with a heavy expression. There were no external wounds or signs of poisoning, they were hanged to death.
Aside from the difficulty of hanging five Mutant Knight, the fact that they used the hair of the dead bodies was shocking enough!
One needed to know that the Mutant Knight's hairstyle wasn't all long.
In fact, for the sake of convenience in battle, most of the Mutant Knight's hair was short.
Hasten the growth of the hair and hang the owner of the hair …
It was a common method used by the witches.
"Curse!
Those witches are trying to show off their power! "
Contly said after a deep breath. She then stopped the three Mutant Knight and said, "If you don't want to end up like them, you better burn the bodies! The witches are best at using bodies to set up traps! "
The three Mutant Knight looked at each other and eventually looked at Kieran.
They needed Kieran to make a decision.
Kieran nodded without objecting.
The fire appeared in the night sky, it could be seen clearly from afar.
Sutherlin Castle was no exception.
Everyone knew it very well.
"2567, we need to leave now!
Sutherlin Castle has noticed our arrival, the place is heavily guarded, there are many cannons and … the witches! We have no chance of winning! "
Herbert said as he walked over.
"How is that possible?
Don't you believe me? "
Kieran replied with a question.
The rainbow-colored light in his eyes flickered again.
Facing such a pair of eyes, even the elderly scholar couldn't look straight into them, all he could do was turn his head away.
"What are you trying to do?
Not only are you not as calm as you used to be, but you have also become arbitrary and stubborn!
"Your bloodline is powerful!"
But you shouldn't be affected by it!
"You rascal, wake up. If you continue like this, you'll destroy yourself!"
Conti yelled at him.
Contly obviously noticed something through the knowledge passed down by the Guardians.
However, Kieran didn't care at all.
"Let's go!"
Kieran said.
Despite Contly's repeated objections, the convoy still followed Kieran's lead.
With a command, the carriages once again headed towards Sutherlin Castle.
"No, we must stop him!"
"He's already been affected by his bloodline. He's no longer as calm and rational as he used to be … Damn it, who has the power to stop him?"
"This guy is so powerful that we can't do anything about him!"
The indignant Contly couldn't hold back her words after she sat in the wagon.
"Yeah!"
Besides, we still have to rely on 2567's strength! "
"I hope everything is fine!"
Herbert said with a bitter smile.
"The more he relies on his strength, the more arrogant 2567 becomes. I've seen such a bastard before but compared to 2567, that bastard is nothing!"
Contly said as she looked at the wagon in front, her eyes were filled with heavy worries.
But soon enough, Contly's worries were replaced by astonishment.
The convoy had entered Sutherlin Castle's perimeter before they arrived.
Plus the fire from the bodies they burned just now, it was impossible for the people in Sutherlin Castle to not notice them but until the convoy arrived before the castle, they didn't run into any questions.
Let alone an ambush!
It was completely unobstructed!
Besides, the drawbridge of Sutherlin Castle was lowered.
The third floor gate at the end was also open.
The people in the convoy looked at the scene before their eyes with doubtful and anxious expressions.
Kieran didn't care much though, he signaled them to continue forward.
Rayhart and Retsu who were dominated by Kieran, of course, wouldn't object to Kieran's orders. The wagon moved forward again and the three Mutant Knight hesitated for a while before following.
As Mutants, after Kieran took control of Carlhart Military Camp, they were left with no other choice.
Contly cursed again when she saw Kieran's reckless actions.
Though, she didn't hesitate and shook the reins to follow the wagon.
Groom, Groom!
The wagon's wheels clashed with the wooden planks of the drawbridge, producing a unique noise that could be heard far away in the dark night.
However, there wasn't a single reaction from Sutherlin Castle.
It was strangely quiet!
"Your Highness, there's a bloody stench!"
Suddenly, a Mutant Knight shouted.
The Mutant Knight's nose twitched continuously, obviously having an extraordinary sense of smell.
"Continue forward!"
Kieran's calm voice came from the carriage.
As though everything was normal.
After the convoy moved forward for a short distance, everyone picked up that bloody stench. The closer they were to the castle gate, the thicker the stench.
It was even to the point that it was pungent.
The Mutant Knight, Rayhart, Retsu, and Contly's face turned ugly.
Because they guessed something.
When the wagon went through two layers of gates and a castle gate that opened inwards, the scene that everyone guessed appeared before their eyes.
Bodies!
Hundreds and thousands of bodies fell into a puddle of blood just like that.
There weren't any signs of killing!
The people inside Sutherlin Castle were like puppets controlled by their masters, standing at the outer perimeter of the castle, allowing their enemies to kill them one slash after another.
They were like livestock in a slaughterhouse.
Carderweld wasn't an exception either.
But unlike the others, this former general had rebelled.
He was holding an exquisite flintlock pistol in his hand and the sharp sword hidden in his walking stick was unsheathed as well.
Unfortunately …
It didn't change Carderweld's fate.
A neat cut appeared on his neck, separating his head from his body.
Carderweld's head fell to the corner of the hall.
His face was frozen with surprise, shock, and rage.
Everyone was speechless for a long time when they saw the bodies all over the floor.
They couldn't describe their feelings at the moment.
They thought it would be a battle of life and death but in the end, their opponent was dead.
The strong contrast was something that even the Mutants with outstanding talents and battle-hardened couldn't accept.
Recalling everything that happened after they left Carlhart Military Camp, looking at the many bodies before their eyes and smelling the vile stench of blood, the Mutant Knight felt numb on their backs.
Strange!
It was too strange!
"Your Highness …"
One of the Mutant Knight looked at Kieran.
Kieran didn't care though, instead, he turned to Herbert.
"A decent chance, isn't it?"
"What are we waiting for?"
"Let's begin, Herbert!"
"I can't wait any longer!"
Kieran said with an excited tone and slightly fanatical expression.
The wicked aura on his body was getting more and more eye-catching, almost distorting the space around him.
"Yeah!"
Herbert nodded and walked straight to the center of the hall, softly chanting a long and complicated incantation.
"Sir Herbert, you?"
Contly was stunned.
The former bounty hunter was completely confused.
She didn't even understand what was happening.
But before she could ask again, she suddenly realized she was dashing towards Kieran uncontrollably, the pitch black short sword in her hand was thrusting towards Kieran's neck.
Not only her, the Mutant Knight, Rayhart, and Retsu reacted the same way.
They were using their strongest attacks to attack Kieran who was inches away from them.
Although their faces were filled with confusion and struggle, their bodies couldn't control themselves.
