A Necromancer Who Just Wants to Plant Trees

Chapter 730: Time Stop Series

“Who is it?”

The members of the Order of Calamity looked warily at Hibbert, who was sitting on the body of the earth-digging worm.

However, the latter did not seem to care about these people at all.

His expression was rather confused as he muttered. Because the surroundings were very quiet, every word Hibbert said clearly reached everyone’s ears.

“What happened? Why did the ground suddenly collapse? Was it because of the earthquake? Or is it because I’ve been eating too much recently?

“What is this place? Why was it pitch black? There are still so many fiendish fellows?

“Eh, how did it die?”

He said the last sentence.

Hibbert looked at the Earth-digging Worm with a puzzled gaze. After the latter fell to the ground, it indeed quickly lost its vitality.

What was more strange was that…

It didn’t seem like the earth-digging worm had fallen to its death.

In fact, this thing had thick skin and tenacious vitality. It was impossible for it to die like this.

Not to mention Hibbert.

Mary Joshua’s eyes were filled with doubt.

Matthew, who was beside her, was also nervous.

Matthew did not want to see Hibbert suddenly appear here.

The other party had yet to notice him.

But what if he recognized him and even greeted him?

Where should Matthew go?

He felt a headache when he thought of these questions.

Even if Hibbert did not notice him, the abnormal events brought about by the earth-digging worm would definitely arouse Mary’s suspicion.

If the other party suspected him or Zangula because of this…

All in all.

Matthew sensed danger.

However, his train of thought changed very quickly.

At the very least, they had managed to sneak in and found the Order of Calamity’s secret hideout near the Watcher Highlands. This undercover operation had a guaranteed harvest.

If it really couldn’t work out, it wouldn’t be a loss even if they were discovered.

At the very least, they could demolish this stronghold.

Thinking of this.

Matthew quickly made up his mind to turn hostile. He took the time to glance at Zangula, who was still hiding half of his face in the shadows, so he could not see what Zangula was planning.

“Hey! I’m asking you a question! Who are you?”

A calamity tentacle stepped forward.

He raised his crossbow and pointed it at Hibbert as he questioned him sternly.

However, Hibbert still ignored him.

The former bent down and attentively checked the death status of the earth-digging worm. He gently pried a scale on the earth-digging worm’s head and seemed to be talking to himself,

” This Earth-digging Worm is very strange. It smells like magic and ashes. What are you feeding it with?”

He seemed to be asking the members of the Order of Calamity.

Everyone looked at each other.

Everyone looked at Mary.

Mary Joshua snorted coldly.

“Where did this lunatic come from? What nonsense.

“Arrest him!”

Hearing this.

Hibbert looked a little anxious. He quickly stood up and said to Mary and the others,

“Don’t arrest me. I was just passing by. I was sitting on the ground when the ground suddenly collapsed. Then, I came here. I’m also a victim.”

However, the Calamity Disciples would not reason with him.

This matter was too abnormal.

Since the cause of the incident, the Digging Worm, had died, Hibbert, who could still speak, must have been the target of Mary Joshua’s suspicion.

Matthew composed himself and prepared to secretly help Hibbert.

At this moment.

One of the warriors passed through the crowd and daringly dashed towards Hibbert.

As he ran, he pulled out an axe from his waist.

His posture was vigorous, and his movements were swift and fierce, giving people the feeling that he was a ferocious beast charging at them!

“Don’t come over!”

Hibbert said anxiously,

“I don’t want to hurt anyone, even if you look like a group of bad people.”

“Shut up, pretty boy!”

The warrior leapt high into the air and pounced at Hibbert with a ferocious expression.

On the other two sides, there were also two Calamity Disciples who came over.

They quickly approached and attacked Hibbert from three different angles.

In a flash.

A soft sigh sounded.

Just as Matthew was about to cast his spell, an extremely bright light lit up on Hibbert’s body.

In an instant.

The entire dim underground space was illuminated as if it was daytime!

Hibbert’s robe swayed gently like a breeze.

Immediately after.

The swaying movement disappeared.

A huge sphere appeared with him as the centre. The space within the sphere seemed to have changed.

Everyone was shocked to see-

The warrior who had jumped up suddenly stopped in mid-air. His body stopped falling, and his expression froze for a moment.

It was the same for the Calamity Disciples, who came from the other two angles.

The three of them were completely stuck.

Not only that.

Time seemed to have stopped inside the ball of light.

Only Hibbert himself was aloof.
