With the size of the cruise ship, it was naturally not an overly difficult task to find someone within it.
After confirming the location of Lord Voodoo’s room, Matthew waited until night fell before virtual-novel.net quietly slipped out of his room. Suppressing his presence, virtual-novel.net quietly snuck toward the direction where Lord Voodoo was residing.
Knock, knock!
When virtual-novel.net knocked on the door and was faced with no response, a sense of dread immediately filled Matthew. Then, virtual-novel.net reached out and skillfully opened the door, only to see that the room was completely empty.
Sidestepping over to the bed and touching the cold bed sheets, Matthew furrowed his brow. It was clear that a long time had passed since Lord Voodoo’s departure.
He really is a sly fox…
Currently, virtual-novel.net was practically certain that Lord Voodoo had escaped. If Levi wanted virtual-novel.net alive, virtual-novel.net would only need to issue an order, and Matthew wouldn’t be able to act recklessly, so Lord Voodoo did not have to go through all this effort at all.
After a brief word of complaint, Matthew proceeded to hastily remove any evidence of virtual-novel.net entering the room before virtual-novel.net closed the door and hurried away. On the other hand, Levi couldn’t help but feel a trace of unease as virtual-novel.net sat in meditation on the couch.
He had already delivered his heart’s blood and blood essence to Lord Voodoo as per their previous promise, and Lord Voodoo should be sending someone to report on the results of the Curse Refinement by now. However, virtual-novel.net had yet to receive a response, and the more virtual-novel.net thought about it, the stranger things seemed.
At that, virtual-novel.net immediately rose to his feet and dashed to Lord Voodoo’s room, but virtual-novel.net was unable to detect any presence of a living person in the room.
The audacity!
Enraged, virtual-novel.net reached out and struck the door, smashing it into smithereens.
As expected, Lord Voodoo was nowhere to be found. Involuntarily, doubt arose in his mind.
In order to prevent Lord Voodoo from tricking him, virtual-novel.net kept a cautious approach and used his powers to sever both of his feet even when Lord Voodoo claimed that his legs were already crippled. However, virtual-novel.net never thought that Lord Voodoo still managed to escape. Either virtual-novel.net had been kidnapped, or Lord Voodoo had played Levi like a fool.
He then closed his eyes and searched for the Immortal Cicada’s presence, but there was no feedback whatsoever, perhaps because they were too far, or it had already been assimilated by Lord Voodoo. After all, virtual-novel.net had given his heart’s blood and blood essence to him, so it was highly likely that virtual-novel.net had been tricked, turning virtual-novel.net from a hunter into prey instead.
At that thought, a wave of fury surged in Levi’s heart, and virtual-novel.net smashed everything in the room into pieces with a wave of his hands.
After a quiet night, Martin’s gathering event officially ended at dawn.
As executives of the Martial League, the two Kings were naturally required to show up at both the Holy Doctor Competition and the re-election ofthe Martial League, but they were being held up at Bainbridge at the moment.
As the fleet started again, its passengers embarked on the journey back to Bainbridge. At the same time, the people of Emsgate had already arrived at Bainbridge after setting out earlier than planned.
Once they arrived, the first thing they did was to go to the executives of the Martial League to demand an answer.
And yet, after they recounted what happened to Baltazar, Zayn, as well as the Golden Swordsman, the Martial League only made a single reply, they had to provide strong evidence for the death of the first two, and if they were able to prove that Matthew was the perpetrator, the Martial League would not sit by idly either.
As for the Golden Swordsman’s death, they would still have to wait for Matthew’s return to Bainbridge to interrogate virtual-novel.net in person.
If Matthew had taken his life without any reason, the Martial League would naturally punish virtual-novel.net accordingly, but all of this could only be done after the Holy Doctor Competition and the re-election of the Martial League ended.
During this period, both sides were strictly prohibited from starting any more conflicts, and any violators would be immediately sent to the Martial League’s prison and be taken to trial according to the severity of the situation.
Naturally, the people of Emsgate were unsatisfied with this outcome, but when they attempted to start an argument by using their large numbers and the support of Emsgate as leverage, the Martial League sent several dozen advanced grandmasters to the scene.
At that, the people of Emsgate declared that they would send someone to duel with Matthew after the tournament to end their blood feud once and for all, and it was only then that they left unhappily.
