Nock said nothing, but s.h.i.+fted his eyes to Fengling.
Fengling trembled and immediately said, “Reporting to Mentor Nock, we found a human being.”
“A human?” There was a trace of surprise on Nock’s old face. His sharp eyes soon swept around Zhanye and others, and finally locked onto Taotie who had a tangled expression.
“I haven’t seen a human for a long time. I didn’t expect a human child to appear in the Howling Abyss.”
The members of the Flaming Red Squad instantly became nervous. The old man in front of them looked extremely powerful and was not someone they could fight, but they still had to protect the little foodie.
“Leave that human to me.” Nock noticed that the members of the Flaming Red Squad were standing by the human child in a protective manner, which made him feel that the whole situation was strange and ridiculous.
“No.” Zhanye firmly opened his mouth.
Luoqiu sneered.
“Your name is Zhanye, right? I remember you. Do you know who you are talking to? This is Master Nock, the master who a.s.sisted my Lord. Who do you think you are? How dare you talk to Master Nock like this?”
Zhanye’s expression became extremely ugly.
The name ‘Nock’ was famous in the Howling Abyss. Almost no undead knew how long Nock had lived. When the Undead Lord ascended the throne, he began to a.s.sist him. It was not until thousands of years ago that he retired and lived in seclusion in the Royal Academy as an honorary mentor. When Luoqiu had called Nock before, Zhanye and others did not notice it because of Luoqiu’s appearance.
But when Luoqiu mentioned Nock’s ident.i.ty again, the Flaming Red Squad could only be described with the word ‘shocked’.
Unlike Sal and Kehr, Nock was more trusted by the Undead Lord. Even the son of the Undead Lord, Mingye, was studying under Nock in the Royal Academy.
This powerful undead, who a.s.sisted the current Undead Lord and the Crown Prince, had an unshakable position in the Howling Abyss.
The members of the Flaming Red Squad never thought that they would meet Nock here.
Nock was like a huge mountain in front of the members of the Flaming Red Squad. In the face of Fengling and Luoqiu, they still had the courage to fight back, but if the opponent were Master Nock…
Zhanye secretly clenched his fist.
“Luoqiu.” Nock suddenly opened his mouth.
“Yes!”
“Capture that human child.” Nock did not intend to talk nonsense with a group of powerless teenagers and directly asked Luoqiu to capture him.
Luoqiu sneered and immediately walked towards Taotie.
The members of the Flaming Red Squad stubbornly stood in front of Taotie. They could not watch the little foodie get killed in front of their eyes.
“What? You want to disobey Master Nock?” Luoqiu raised his eyebrows and looked at the teenagers in front of him. These students of Shen Yanxiao, these teenagers who had brought him shame, were like Shen Yanxiao’s clones in his eyes.
The Flaming Red Squad gritted their teeth. Only in this way could they suppress their fear of Nock and stand in place to protect the little foodie.
“s.h.i.+le, take him away, quick.” Zhanye whispered to s.h.i.+le standing behind him.
s.h.i.+le immediately understood what Zhanye meant. They were not Nock’s opponents, so they could only choose to run!
s.h.i.+le turned around, picked up Taotie, and rushed out in the opposite direction.
