As the Damrons were scattered all over the place, the crimson serpent lunged at them, wanting to
strangle all of them.
Luckily, Quincy arrived in the nick of time.
With a long-barreled gun in his hand, he fired at the crimson serpent's head, causing the latter to roar
in pain.
The crimson serpent turned around and glared at Quincy furiously.
Holding the long-barreled gun in his hand, Quincy quickly backed away, not daring to fight the crimson
serpent at close quarters.
The crimson serpent swiftly went after Quincy.
After all, how could it possibly let him go after he had caused it so much pain? Despite his advanced
age, Quincy moved with amazing speed, running continuously in the cave like an ape.
Matthew's face darkened as he took a glance at Quincy.
"This old geezer is trying to lead the crimson serpent here!"
The crown prince and the others also noticed that something was wrong.
"What an insidious old *sshole! Matty, t-this guardian beast is too ferocious! Should we run away?"
whispered the crown prince.
Matthew shook his head.
"You guys go first! I have to stay!"
The crown prince was surprised.
"Why?"
Matthew stared meaningfully at the pool of water.
"I need the stuff in the pool!"
The crown prince was stunned.
"In the pool? What is it?"
Just then, Quincy had reached their side.The crimson serpent rampaged all the way toward the crowd
with a roar like a large and unstoppable truck.
Unable to dodge in time, a few herb growers were knocked flying by the crimson serpent, causing them
to die instantly from broken bones.
Just as the crimson serpent was about to reach Matthew and the others, Matthew suddenly patted the
crown prince.
"Stay right here!"
Then, before his voice could fade, he dashed forward and headed straight for the pool over there.
Seeing what had happened, the crimson serpent immediately gave up on pursuing Quincy and went
after Matthew instead.
Matthew didn't hesitate even for a moment.
After rushing to the edge of the pool, he turned around and pounced on the few Damrons.
Feeling that it had been tricked, the crimson serpent roared wildly while chasing after Matthew.
Seeing what was happening, Quincy nearly let loose a torrent of abuse on the spot.
He had taken a lot of trouble to lead the crimson serpent to the crown prince's side, and yet Matthew
had to lead it back to the Damrons! As Matthew ran past the Damrons, the crimson serpent charged
after him, crushing a few of the Damrons to death right away.
Quincy swore like a trooper while running back with the long-barreled gun in his hand to stop the
crimson serpent.
If he didn't do so, all the Damrons would definitely die! One had to say that Quincy was quite skilled in
combat, for he managed to stop the crimson serpent with the long-barreled gun in his hand.
After being hit by the long-barreled gun a few times, the crimson serpent obviously became furious.
After taking a blow from Quincy, it charged at him and knocked him flying with its head.
The guardian beast was incredibly terrifying, for it was born with enormous strength.
As a result, Quincy fell to the ground and spat out several mouthfuls of blood.He struggled a few times,
but he was unable to get up.
Now, Rose and the young man next to her were the only ones behind Quincy.
Frightened, the young man turned around in an attempt to run away, but the crimson serpent came at
great speed and bit his right leg all at once.
Then, it tore off the young man's right leg with all its might, causing him to nearly pass out from the
pain.
This time, Rose was the only one left behind him.
Seeing how terrifying the crimson serpent looked, Rose hastily backed away with fright, only to trip and
fall by accident.
Falling onto the ground, she looked a sorry sight with disheveled hair and a panic- stricken look on her
face as she was unable to dodge the crimson serpent at all.
The crimson serpent's eyes shone.
Then, it lunged at her with its large mouth wide open.
Letting out a scream, Rose subconsciously covered her eyes, having given up all hope.
With blood spewing out of his mouth, Quincy shouted, "Young Lady, run!"
But who else could save Rose at this moment? At this critical moment, a person rushed over and
grabbed Rose's clothes, swiftly dragging her away.
As a result, the crimson serpent failed to catch anything.
Having escaped from the jaws of death, Rose finally got a good look at the person who saved her.
Surprisingly, the person was Matthew, whom she had just scorned! Rose was stunned.
She never expected Matthew to be the person who saved her life.
