Chapter 231

Gavin looked at the empty dining room and frowned slightly.

The cutlery on the dining table clearly indicated that a lively banquet was being held here before this.

However, there was no one here at this moment.

Obviously, those people had all fled.

Those people sure were quite intelligent and quick-witted.

They had sensed that something was wrong when the corpse of the Moore family's elder flew out from behind Gavin just now.

Thus, without another word, they turned around and crawled into the secret passage and fled in panic.

Whether they could survive or have a chance to counterattack and kill Gavin in the future depended on whether they could survive now.

After all, the only backer in their hearts, the Moore family's elder, was already dead.

However, the members of the Hill family still had a way out. After escaping from the Moore family mansion, they could go straight west to Zenor Town and ask the Southland Overlord for help.

No matter what the outcome was, they had to escape this place first.

At this moment, screams rang out from outside the dining hall.

When Gavin took action just now, the members of Frostpeak Dark Warriors Team D and Rosebud, who had been standing guard outside the mansion, also launched an attack on the Moore family at the same time.

Everyone in the perimeter of the Moore family, as long as they were not in the dining hall, had been killed by the blades of the members of Frostpeak Dark Warriors Team D and Rosebud.

Soon, the team leader of the Frostpeak Dark Warriors Team D, Harry, and the head of Rosebud, Rose, appeared behind Gavin.

The two of them knelt on one knee at the same time and reported to Gavin respectfully, "Dark Lord! The people of the Moore family have been dealt with!" Gavin gave them a slight nod and asked, "Did you find the Hill family?"

They had gotten news from the Henderson family that everyone in the Hill family had come to the Moore family to seek protection.

On the other side, Harry and Rose looked at each other and shook their heads at the same time.

"We didn't see anyone else except for some of the Hill family's servants."

"Hm?" There was a hint of doubt in Gavin's eyes.

He thought, 'Since those people were not found outside, it must mean that they had escaped from inside the dining hall. If that's the case...' Gavin slowly closed his eyes.

His Divine Sense, which even high-level warriors looked up to, immediately rippled out into the surroundings.

The structure of the entire house was being outlined in Gavin's mind.

However, at this moment, a soft sound rang out in the dining room.

Harry and Rose turned around at the same time and shouted, "Who's there?"

The two of them leaped toward where the noise had come from.

Harry jumped out with a young man in one hand.

"Stop, stop! It's me, it's me...

"Your Grace, it's me!" the young man who was being carried by Harry exclaimed.

Gavin opened his eyes and looked at the person with a strange expression.

Harry also just recognized that the person he had brought out was Brody Hill from the Hill family.

A strange look appeared in Harry's eyes when he saw Brody.

However, he still threw Brody to the ground.

Brody, who had fallen to the ground, got up and knelt in front of Gavin.

He hugged Gavin's thigh with both hands and said with tears in his eyes, "Your Grace, I missed you so much! You finally came to Greenwald!"

Gavin felt very helpless as he looked at the wailing Brody.

Brody was quite pitiful.

Gavin did not intend to kill Brody either. After all, Brody did not even know what the Clifford family was.

Gavin looked at Brody who was hugging his thigh tightly. He shook his head and asked, "Brody, why are you here? Where are the other members of the Hill family?"

Brody jumped up and ran to the chair at the front of the dining hall when he heard Gavin's question.

Then, he slammed the chair heavily.

They heard a rumble and a series of vibrations.

The secret passage that Darren had shown them earlier appeared in the dining hall again.

Then, Brody pointed at the secret passage excitedly and said loudly, "Your Grace, the Hill family had just entered this secret passage not long ago along with the remaining members of the Moore family! They are inside!"

'Well, well...' Gavin thought.

He looked at how excited Brody was and honestly found it a little disgusting.

The people who were more disgusted by him would be the Hill family and the Moore family.

Brody was a traitor who betrayed even his blood relatives. He even wished that his blood relatives would die as soon as possible.

However, Gavin knew that this was all because Brody had suppressed his

emotions for more than 20 years, causing him to go crazy.

The members of the Hill family might think that they were protecting Brody by not letting him do anything, belittling him every day, and not letting him come into contact with the core of the Hill family. However, they did not know that their actions had completely twisted Brody's psyche.

Gavin had already discovered parts of the secret passage when investigated the area with his Divine Sense.

However, Brody opening the secret passage saved him a lot of trouble.

Thus, Gavin made a slight gesture to Harry and Rose and said indifferently, "Leave no one alive."

Harry and Rose cupped their fists at the same time and said in unison when they heard Gavin's instruction and saw his gesture, "Understood!"

"Whoosh, whoosh!" Their figures cut through the air.

Harry and Rose disappeared into the secret passage.

Gavin could not be bothered to deal with the remaining members of the Hill family and the Moore family himself.

The head of Rosebud, Rose, was at intermediate celestial rank. By her side was Harry, whose strength made even Rose tremble in fear.

One could only imagine what would happen to the members of the Hill family and the Moore family.

Standing at the entrance of the secret passage, Brody's eyes flickered with a scarlet light mixed with a kind of blood-boiling excitement. He kept rubbing his hands because of his nervous anticipation.

"Ah!"

"No!"

"How did you get in?"

"Who opened the door to the secret passage!"

"Ah!"

Terrified screams kept ringing out from the secret passage.

Harry and Rose had obviously caught up with the group.

Brody revealed a bloodthirsty excitement when he heard those voices.

He even shouted into the secret passage, "I opened the door! I was the one who sent His Grace's men in to kill you! Haha, I'm Brody Hill! I'm Brody Hill!"

At this moment, Brody had a ferocious expression on his face. He seemed to have become a lunatic.

It looked like he was destined for the mental asylum.

Gavin looked at the current Brody and sighed in his heart.

However, he did not pity Brody.

Who would sympathize with him if he pitied Brody?

Gavin did not know if the people in the secret passage had heard Brody's hysterical screams.

It didn't take long for the screams inside the passage to disappear.

The thick stench of blood wafted out of the secret passage.

Brody seemed to be greedily inhaling this bloody stench. It looked like he was enjoying it.

Then, the figures of Harry and Rose emerged from the secret passage.

They cupped their fists and bowed to Gavin.

"Benefactor, mission accomplished."

On the other side, Gavin had yet to say anything.

Brody let out a miserable laugh.

Everyone looked at Brody.

Brody was kneeling at the entrance of the secret passage with a ferocious smile on his face. However, tears kept flowing out of the corners of his eyes.

His voice became hoarse as he kept repeating, "They're all dead. The people from the Hill family are all dead. It's good that they're dead. It's good that they're dead." They did not know if Brody was happy or sad.

On the other side, Rose and Harry shot each other a strange look, then turned to look at Gavin at the same time.

Gavin narrowed his eyes as he looked at Brody.

Brody's current state allowed Gavin to see some of his unusual characteristics. Those characteristics looked obvious, but they also looked like they had just appeared. For a moment, Gavin suddenly felt that Brody's usefulness might not be limited. to this.
