Nobilis of War novel Chapter 1298

Darren kept on flying at full speed. With the aid of the speed runes, he was able to go back to the Starry Sword Sect within a day.

"How was your trip? Any good news?" As soon as Darren came out of the secret passage, Murphy perceived his arrival and quickly went to welcome him.

"Well, it went fine," Darren answered indifferently.

"What do you mean? Were you able to successfully invite Lord Akbar? Where is he now?" Murphy asked expectantly.

"About that, no, he can't leave that swamp. But in turn, I have here several useful things that he gave me. Here, look at this one."

Darren took out the exquisite black armor and showed it to Murphy.

As soon as Murphy saw the armor, his eyes lit up immediately. With just a glance, he knew that this armor was something powerful and extraordinary.

"He gave this to you?" Murphy asked while his eyes were still fixed on the armor.

"That's right. Come on, put it on. With this, you will be able to fight against Maxwell on equal terms!"

"It's that powerful?"

Without the least hesitation, Murphy grabbed the armor and excitedly put it on.

Suddenly, a strong magical force spread all over his body, causing his meridians to be enhanced by multiple folds.

"You're right! I can feel the extreme power! I feel like I can easily take on the warriors at the upper-level of the Celestial God Realm with this!" Murphy was overwhelmed with the powerful strength that flowed in his body. He had never felt this strong before, causing his confidence to boost significantly.

However, after thinking carefully for a while, he told Darren, "The people we're facing this time are not only Maxwell. If he managed to invite any powerful warrior at the top level of the Celestial God Realm, there's a huge chance that our sect will be in huge trouble."

After all, there was still a huge gap in strength between warriors at the top level of the Celestial God Realm and those only at the upper-level.

"Yeah, I've already thought about that. Don't worry. I have my ways to deal with it," Darren reassured him with a faint smile.

"Fine, I believe you." Murphy had no reason to doubt Darren after the latter brought back such a powerful weapon.

After that, Darren and Murphy went to cultivate their martial arts separately. Even the slightest improvement would be helpful for them to deal with their future opponents. Moreover, Murphy had to take the time to master using the armor. If everything went well, he would have better chances of defeating the Gambling King.

Two weeks had quickly passed since the two cultivated nonstop.

The following day, the entire branch of the Starry Sword Sect was in an uproar again after the sudden arrival of Maxwell.

Darren and Murphy quickly responded, flew out, and landed on the ground in front of the array. On the other side, Maxwell was standing firmly together with his forces.

"I'm pleased that you two bastards came as fast as you could. It'll be easier for me to finish you off!"

Maxwell shouted from the other side of the array, exuding an intimidating and ferocious aura.

"How dare you? You're the one who barged in here in the first place and even kidnapped my daughter. Your killing points and divine patterns should serve as your compensation," Murphy retorted with a straight face.

"Nonsense! I will get what I want, Murphy. And what I want today are your and that bastard's heads! You really have the guts to talk back? Can't you see these two masters beside me?!"

Maxwell pointed at the old man and the young man that were standing beside him.

Murphy had already detected the aura of the two men as soon as they showed up. Their strength was indeed formidable and he estimated that they must be at least at the upper-level of the Celestial God Realm.

"Yeah, of course. I can also see that you must have spent a lot of money this time," Darren said in a subtle mocking tone, while Murphy stayed silent.

"Ha! So what? I'm willing to spend billions of killing points just to eliminate you two! And because of these two masters with me, you have no chance of escaping alive! But don't think that I'll grant you a swift death. I will kill you slowly that you'll beg me to just kill you already!"

Maxwell's anger was genuine. He was not just throwing empty threats. In the face of the two formidable masters from the Blood Abyss Sect, the array that they had set up should be useless.

"Wow, you're so confident. Are you sure of what you're doing? I don't even think the two men you brought will be capable enough to help you," Darren taunted.

"You piece of shit. You're still going to be arrogant until the end. Fine! No matter how hard you beg me later, I won't show a hint of mercy to you!
