Chapter 362: Noah’s Secret



Chapter 362: Noah’s Secret

After leaving the safe house, Gaya and Noah were following a youngster named Eric, a fellow guardian friend of Noah. Gaya was silently following the two of them as Eric seemed to know more about the places and routes in Fire Realm than Noah and Gaya combined,

"Guardian Eric, where are Oscar and the other men?"

"It's very easy to find them in the outer perimeter. Murdoch has occupied our previous stronghold, and I'm guessing he's keeping Oscar and men there. Let me lead you there quietly." Eric said.

"Why are we wasting our time looking for this Oscar person?" Gaya asked after they entered a dark alley.

"I don't leave friends behind," Noah said. Speaking of friends, Noah couldn't help thinking of Abel. It had been almost a year since Abel went missing inside the Nether Realm. Noah had a feeling that Abel is not alive, still, Noah never gave up the search. He was still researching about opening a mini-portal to the Nether realm and going searching for Abel. If Abel was alive, Noah wanted to rescue him, if not, he wanted answers to what happened to Abel.

"Just make it quick," Gaya sighed. She could tell by looking into Noah's eyes that there's no stopping him. Considering her chance of killing the five-headed serpent was high with Noah, she stuck with him instead of parting ways. More than that, she had a feeling that Noah was hiding something crucial and she wanted to know what.

They followed Eric as they began rushing towards the stronghold. There was no distinct difference between night and day in Inferno Hell, as there was no sun or moon, and the skies had the same crimson color all day long. It was a depressing sight.

Soon after, Eric led Noah and Gaya to a manor. The manor wasn't huge, but there was a historical feeling to it.

"There is a secret chamber in the manor, and if my guess is correct, they should be keeping Oscar in that secret chamber. I know of an entrance behind the secret chamber, we can enter directly from there. Let's not alert Murdoch and his men, let's first get our men out. Otherwise, once we engage in a battle, Oscar and the other men might become collateral"

Eric said. It seemed like Eric wanted to avoid any battles in Gaya's eyes.

Behind the manor, a seven feet beast that had the body of a dog and the head of an eagle and a pair of blood-red eyes was laying in front of the entrance to the secret chamber. It was at the level 7 Core Formation stage, 

"This demon beast was caught by Murdoch, he's using it to guard the door,"

Eric informed them in a husky voice. The trio stood behind a boulder and looked around the manor to gauge the security.

"Can you shoot it from here?" Noah asked Gaya. She wanted to be on the way to hunt the five-headed serpent, not help some random humans. Yet since she might need his help defeating the serpent, she sighed and took out her bow.

She knocked an arrow that had a green tip on the bow. The moment she fired the arrow, it soared through the air like a bullet before piercing through right between the beast's two eyes. Its body frantically twitched for a few moments before its body stopped moving completely. Its blood was still oozing out of the wound but not even a single sound was made.

Soon the trio opened up the narrow back door and snuck in. Behind the door, there was a tunnel that led downwards. It was pretty dark inside. At the end of the tunnel, there was an underground secret chamber.

Ahh!!

Not long after they walked in, Noah began hearing some horrible screams from the secret chamber. The screams didn't seem to stop, and it really gave them an eerie feeling. It wasn't hard for them to imagine what kind of pain the men inside were experiencing.

"It's Oscar!."

Gaya saw Noah's expression become stern. He had heard Oscar's voice from the screams just now. He couldn't bear it any longer, and his killing intent was unleashed from his body.

Right now, inside the underground secret chamber.

This was a huge secret chamber, and cruel torturing was being carried out right now. It was a horrible scene. Right in the middle of the secret chamber, seven men with naked upper bodies were tied onto some iron poles. Their bodies were covered with blood, their skin was split and flesh broke forth. Horrible scars could be seen everywhere, and blood kept leaking out from their terrible wounds.

Right in front of them, a luxuriously dressed adult man was sitting on a comfy chair, pleasantly watching the ongoing torturing as if he was viewing the nicest scenery.

"Bastard! Kill us now if you dare, kill us now!"

A young man in his mid-twenties roared out. He kept spitting out blood as he let out terrible roars. He had the most wounds and scars on his body, and his vision was blurring. Obviously, even with his strong mentality and body, he was going to pass out after going through such cruel torture for a long period of time.

This man was Oscar.

"You want me to kill you? Not that simple! You have offended young master Murdoch, and that is a crime that deserves eternal torture! Men, give me something more explosive!"

The adult man said.

There were five of Murdoch's men in the secret chamber, but they were only at Core Formation level 2. When they heard the man's words, a ferocious smile emerged on all their faces. One of them took out a palm-sized tube, then he walked up to Oscar and opened the tube. Immediately, a muddish brown snake swam out from it. The snake sent forth a pungent smell which told that it carried a deadly poison

"Oscar, this is a sand rattler. I think you have heard of it before."

The man said with a hideous smile on his face. After that, he placed the poisonous snake on Oscar's body. When the snake smelled the blood, it immediately went towards one of the wounds on Oscar's body, and tried its best to penetrate itself into his wound.

Ahhh!!

Even the toughest men wouldn't be able to withstand this kind of pain. Oscar instantly let out a terrifying cry. A sizzling sound could be heard from his body, and his skin quickly turned into an emerald color. The pain coming from the corrosion was not something ordinary people could imagine.

Ahh!!

At the same time, terrifying screams once again sounded out throughout the entire secret chamber.

"I can't take it anymore!"

Someone let out a painful shout and was completely silent afterward. The deadly poison from the sand rattler was not something anybody could resist. Besides, all of them were severely injured. The pain they were experiencing was unimaginable.

"Hahaha…"

The man who was sitting in the chair let out a burst of evil laughter as if this kind of creepy scream was the most beautiful melody in this world. The pleasant feeling brought to him by torturing people could really satisfy his twisted mind, and he had learned all this from Murdoch.

Right at this moment, three figures appeared in the secret chamber. When Noah looked at Oscar, flames of fury exploded forth in his eyes, and he was unable to restrain his anger any longer.

"Who are you?

When the man saw the uninvited guests, his expression immediately became cold.

"The man who is going return the favor"

Noah's body swayed, and he arrived in front of the man in an instant. He clenched his palm onto the man's throat, causing the man to feel like there was a gigantic mountain pressing him, making it so that he couldn't even breathe properly.

"Eric capture all these men, but do not kill them."

Noah ordered.

"Understood!"

Eric replied as he immediately dashed forwards. The five warriors were no match for Eric, they were pressed onto the ground in an instant.

"Oscar."

Eric walked up to Oscar and hurriedly broke the iron chains on his body, then he helped him down.

"Eric, what are you doing here?"

Oscar kept throwing up blood as he spoke. His life force was getting weaker and weaker.

"Oscar, look who is here," Eric said, pointing his finger at Noah

Noah threw the man onto the floor as he hit the floor with a loud thud sound. Noah then walked up to Oscar.

"Oscar, I'm here to rescue you. Let's get you somewhere safe buddy" Noah said with a smile on his face.

"Noah, it really is you…"

Cough cough…

When Oscar saw that Noah had come to his rescue, a joyful expression emerged on his face. But, he had no idea why Noah had come to IFire Realm, or why he was with Eric.

"Don't speak right now."

Noah placed his palm onto Oscar's body. With a flick of his wrist, he created a beam of light around his palm and sucked out all the deadly poisons in Oscar's body. After that, Noah did the same to the others.

Witnessing this, Eric was stunned once again. It was a deadly poison, and Noah had absorbed it all into his body, and he was still not affected by it. This was really frightening.

Ahh!!

Oscar let out another horrible cry, then he passed out instantly. When a man was relieved from a long, tense situation, he would immediately pass out.

"Noah, Oscar's condition is really serious, he needs a healer"

Eric said. He glanced at the rest of the men, they were in a worse condition than Oscar. Gaya couldnt help wondering why Murdoch's men tortured them instead of just killing them. This made her curious.

"Hmph! They will pay for what they did to you and your men Oscar"

"Noah" Gaya heard Oscar who was lying on the ground, barely keeping his eyes open, speak Noah's name. Oscar moved his right hand towards Noah as Gaya noticed a small glimmer inside Oscar's forearm.

"The key…take…it" Gaya saw a vague shape of a three-inch key appear in Oscar's forearm before the light moved into Noah's arm and disappeared.

After the energy key came into his body, Noah heard his mentor's voice in his head,

"With this key, we are one step closer to reviving the elders Noah"
