All of them turned their vicious glare to Cain and the other two.
They looked as though they were going to eat the three alive.
“You monster! You've tormented us for too long. We won't let any of you go!”
“My child... You did all that to my child! You must pay the price for your horrible actions!”
“Kill them! We'll avenge us and our children!”
The crowd charged forward and started hitting Cain and the other two.
Cain was in a lot of pain, but he was still able to shout, “Get out of my face! Leave now! Anyone who hits me again
will get a worm from me! I promise you all that you'll die very painfully when the poison kicks in!”
When they heard about the worm, all of them became afraid.
They were aware of how much pain their children went through when the worms were attached to their bodies.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSole Wolf smiled wickedly before charging toward the three and breaking all their arms without hesitation. “Thanks
for the reminder. Without your arms, you won't be able to hurt anyone with those worms ever again.”
Cain broke down right then and there as he cursed out loud.
The inability to use his arms meant he wouldn't be able to take care of himself for the rest of his life.
Of course, Jeremiah and Peter were even more furious than Cain. They were exclaiming about how it was all Cain's
doing and how he alone deserved punishment, not them.
Their anger toward Cain was so great that both of them began to kick him violently as well.
On the way to the Netherworld's base, Zeke asked, “Let me ask you something, Freddie. How many people from
the Netherworld are there?”
Freddie answered, “Netherworld's Seventh Branch's leader, Daemonium, and Warren.”
Zeke furrowed his eyebrows. “The leader of Netherworld's Seventh Branch is here too? Why is he here with
Daemonium?”
Freddie stuttered, “I-I'm just an errand boy from the Fourth Branch. I don't know any confidential information-”
“Do it, Sole Wolf.”
“Okay, okay! I'll tell!” He was so afraid of Sole Wolf that the moment Zeke uttered his name, he almost immediately
broke down mentally. “The Netherworld's Seventh Branch is currently conducting research for a really large project.
Daemonium and Warren went there because they wanted to help the Seventh Branch with their research.”
“What kind of project? Tell me.” Zeke's sixth sense was telling him that the big project had something to do with
Pietro and the Secret Realm of Mount Kush.
As Freddie was currently their captive, he had no choice but to spill the beans. “The Netherworld had always
wanted to enter the Secret Realm of Mount Kush. However, the biological structure of a person from the
Netherworld is different from that of a living human, which is why no one from the Netherworld has been able to

of Mount Kush, the Seventh Branch conducted all sorts of bodily experiments in order to change the biological
structure of our bodies so we can pass through that barrier. To achieve that goal, the Netherworld had spent a lot of
effort capturing two important research subjects. Right now, their research had finally borne fruit. With the use of a
special worm, a Netherworld person will be able to change their body structure enough to step through that barrier.
There are a lot of us, which was why we built the Village of Livestock. The bodies of the villagers were used as
culture dishes to cultivate large batches of those worms.”
Zeke hurriedly asked, “Who's the two research subjects that the Netherworld captured?”
He already guessed who the subjects were. It was probably the two members of the Northern Conquest Army that
Pietro led.
In other words, they were likely Emma's father David, and Thomas' father Brantley.
He had been tracking their location for quite a long time.
David did enter the Secret Realm of Mount Kush with Pietro in the past, so he must know the situation with the
secret realm and Pietro.
