Medical Genius's Unspeakable Marriage

Chapter 1273

Seeing the situation, the crown prince couldn't help but whisper, "This Quincy is really shameless.

Asking them to stay after so many people have died? Why didn't he do that sooner?"

Matthew shook his head before whispering in reply, "He doesn't want these people to stay.His objective is to make these people go on ahead!"

The crown prince was startled.

"What? You don't say!"

Matthew chuckled without saying a word.

Those from Eastshire and Stonedale looked at each other, unwilling to resign themselves to such an outcome.

They had come all the way here and lost so many of their people, but now, Quincy persuaded them to stay instead.

How could they possibly be willing to do so? And besides, after the last two incidents, they didn't trust Quincy anymore.

Therefore, when Quincy suggested at this very moment that they stay behind, they suspected that he was purposely trying to get rid of them because they were almost at their destination.

"Now that we're already here, wouldn't it be a disservice to those who died if we stop at this moment? Let's go on ahead; suggested an elder from Stonedale.

Quincy smiled.

"That's okay.If that’s the case, you guys walk behind us to avoid any further danger.

Having suffered heavy casualties, those from Stonedale and Eastshire were only too eager to walk behind everyone else.

Therefore, upon hearing Quincy's words, they immediately ran to the back of the crowd, whereas Quincy and the others walked ahead of them as if to scout the way.

At this moment, Matthew followed Quincy and his men closely while taking the crown prince with him, knowing that the real danger might be coming from behind from now on.

As he had expected, after walking a little further, everyone heard a few screams behind them all of a sudden.

For some reason, several crimson snakes appeared behind them and ambushed those from Eastshire and Stonedale from behind.

This time, those from Eastshire and Stonedale were even more unprepared, so they suffered a lot.

After a flurry of confusion, only six of them were still alive, whereas all the others died a tragic death.

After slaying the crimson snakes with great difficulty, those from Eastshire and Stonedale nearly had an emotional breakdown.

The crown prince looked baffled.

"What the hell is wrong with these people? The venomous snakes attacked them first when they walked ahead of us, and they still attacked them first when they walked behind us? Did the snakes hold a grudge against them or something?"

Matthew shook his head.

"Do you think Quincy let them walk behind because it was good for them? No.The area we just walked past is where these crimson snakes live.At first, everyone was going toward the snakes, so those in front would be attacked first.Then, we walked past the snakes’ lair.

As the crimson snakes were catching up to us from behind, they would attack the people at the back.

Quincy is smart.

He let the people walk ahead while we were going toward the snakes, but after we walked past the snakes' lair and had our backs to the snakes, he let them walk at the back.

In the end, the people from Eastshire and Stonedale were the ones who fought these crimson snakes head-on!"

At the revelation, the crown prince couldn't help but whisper, "This old geezer really is treacherous, isn't he?"

Everyone continued to walk ahead, but this time, those from Eastshire and Stonedale had no idea whether to walk in front or behind.

In the end, they simply gave up.

They stood in place and stayed, for they were really terrified.

When Quincy saw the situation, he just sneered.He had reached his goal; the people from Eastshire and Stonedale had helped him and his men ward off a lot of dangers.

Now that these people were staying after this, no one would fight him and his men for the herbs.

And that was exactly what he wanted.

Matthew didn't care that much, though.

Taking the crown prince with him, he continued to walk ahead.

Quincy frowned slightly when he saw them coming over.

He said slowly, "If you two keep going further, it's gonna be more and more dangerous.I'd advise you to stay here and not go anywhere else.Nothing matters more than staying alive!"

Matthew looked totally unperturbed.

"Thanks for the reminder, but now that we've come this far, it'd be a shame not to go further"
