As the dust gradually dissipated, the scene on the high platform became clear.
The array formed by Academy of Forest was broken, and the clergies were all tired and gasping for breath. It could be seen that the big array broken by brute force had a great impact on them.
Wu Ning stared angrily at Matthew not far away, wishing to kill him at once.
The evil aura on Matthew's body faded away. He stood there calmly and looked straight at Wu Ning.
At Matthew's feet, more than twenty clergies of the Academy of Death lay on the high platform without breathing, their souls returning to the underworld.
"They are all dead..." Somebody murmured in astonishment, which made others gasp and dumbfounded.
Matthew was just a Silver-level cultivator!
Although the Academy of Forest's array was of great help, those dead clergies killed by him all had great fighting forces.
If an ordinary Silver-level cultivator battled with these clergies, he or she could not harm these clergies at all.
"Are you ready to face your death?" Wu Ning was in an extreme rage but he was abnormally calm. If anyone came forward to persuade him at this time, he would not hesitate to use God of Death's Sickle and kill that person.
Without the array of Academy of Forest, he could defeat everyone present easily.
"You wanna send the king of the underworld back his territory? I'm afraid you won't have the chance. " Matthew laughed. He spread out his hands and looked extremely relaxed as if the corpses at his feet had nothing to do with him.
At the same time, he turned his head and looked at the gate.
"Hmm?" The others didn't know what was going on, so they followed Matthew's gazes to look at the gate. Then they exclaimed, "Two deacons of Academy of Forest are coming!"
More than a dozen people showed up at the gate.
The two men in front were dressed in emerald-green brocade robes with golden willow patterns on the position of their waists. They were deacons from the Academy of Forest.
Their auras were strong, and maybe even stronger than that of Wu Ning.
"Hi, Deacon Bale and Deacon Cesar."
On the high platform, the people from Academy of Forest all put their right hands on their chests and bowed their heads to salute. Their originally tense bodies were completely relaxed.
The leader from Academy of Forest, who was in charge of the array also looked happy.
The two deacons came here, indicating that Goddess of Forest attached much importance to this matter. It was not wrong for him to fully support Matthew just now. And he might be rewarded after going back.
"Well, you did a good job." Bale and Cesar nodded and said.
"We have just done our duty. " The leader responded, overjoyed. Sure enough, what he did was right.
On the high platform, Matthew also breathed a sigh of relief when seeing the reinforcement arrived.
Just now, he almost used up all the remaining power in the divine space, and the rest must be reserved for protecting himself.
If the reinforcement didn't come in time, he would have to run away.
God of Death and Goddess of Forest had completely different attitudes towards the awakening of the main god.
Matthew also showed his attitude by wasting the power of the divine space on slaughter the people of Death Academy.
No one was allowed to insult the main god.
Besides, Matthew's behavior let all people know that if anyone had a problem with the divine inheritance, he would stop the argument with violence!
Matthew's approach was a bit extreme. But once the whole world knew about what happened here and his approach got effect, it would dispel many people's doubts about the main god and his divine inheritance.
"Is Academy of Forest going to protect the descendant of the demon?" Wu Ning frowned when he saw the serious expressions of those from Academy of Forest and said.
He was an army of one at the moment. If he fought, he would be the one to suffer losses.
"What are you talking about, Deacon Wu? Everyone has the responsibility to kill descendants of demons! And naturally, we are no exception. But our goddess ordered us to take Matthew back. We should do as told. We are sure that Matthew awakened his talents from the main god. And the appearance of the main god indicates that the great era is coming," Bale smiled and said. Matthew could not be characterized as a descendant of demons, or he would bring a bad reputation to Goddess of Forest.
"Butcher Wu, cut the crap. We're going to take Matthew with us. If you did not agree, then violence is our only way to solve this problem!" Cesar was not good-tempered as Bale. He shouted and was burning with a desire to fight.
"Humph, I'll report to Lord God of Death about what happened here. Behave yourself from now on." Wu Ning frowned and snorted.
After the battle just now, there was not much spiritual power left in his body. Facing the two deacons who were of the same level as him and wanted to protect Matthew, he would suffer great losses if he fought with them.
Therefore, he had no choice but to retreat.
But Wu Ning was unreconciled, so he dropped a threatening word and flew away from Heiner High School.
"Matthew, Goddess of Forest invited you to our academy. Please come with us." After Wu Ning left, Bale turned to Matthew and said politely.
Although Bale's tone was polite, Matthew knew that he couldn't refuse.
"Do you think I have any other options?" Matthew shrugged and chuckled. Then he seemed to remember something and asked, "Could you wait for me and let me say goodbye to my classmates?"
He knew that once he left, he wouldn't come back freely. The teachers and classmates had little to do with him, but he could not leave without saying goodbye to Sierra.
Bale did not speak and then walked to the others from Academy of Forest to check on their injuries.
Seeing this, Matthew didn't say anything more. He jumped down the high platform and walked towards Sierra.
The crowd stepped back unconsciously, making way for Matthew.
Matthew didn't know what to say for a moment when he came to Sierra. After a long silence, he remembered what Sierra vouched for before he awakened his talents. Then he said, "I'll come to you when I have time in the future. Remember to protect me after you awaken your talents."
Matthew didn't know whether he would see her again.
The power left in the divine space was actually enough for him to escape.
But he couldn't. There were many secrets about Hades's inheritance and he wanted to know about them.
It was a good chance to inquire about it when he met Goddess of Forest.
"So, I'll have to work harder to protect the inheritors of the main god?" Sierra didn't know what to say either so she joked with tearful eyes whiling smiling.
The two looked at each other, speechless.
Finally, Matthew stepped forward and hugged Sierra for a long time before they separated. Then, Matthew went straight to Bale and Cesar.
Matthew had just been in this world. Logically speaking, he wouldn't have any feelings for Sierra. But he hugged Sierra out of sincerity. The hug was also his final farewell to Sierra.
...
"This is Mount Ten Thousand?"
After coming out of Heiner High School, Matthew followed Bale and Cesar all the way and traveled through wormholes.
A few hours later, they arrived at Mount Ten Thousand.
The continuous mountains were covered with green plants. Matthew felt he was like a primitive creature that came to the boundless land.
"Welcome to Mount Ten Thousand, Matthew."
Before Bale and Cesar could speak, a soft voice came from Mount Ten Thousand, making Matthew so delighted just like bathing in the spring wind.
When hearing the voice, Bale and Cesar immediately knelt on one knee to salute.
They didn't expect the Goddess of Forest to receive Matthew in person. Fortunately, they didn't make things difficult for Matthew on the way...
