Nobilis of War novel Chapter 1349

The Blood Stone contained the Order Law, which the Rule Soul Avatar could use to analyze further and improve the Order Law he had comprehended.

However, these fiends became anxious. After having labored continuously for thousands of years, they dreamed of the day they would dig up a piece of Blood Stone to rest. They never thought that the moment a Blood Stone appeared, someone would steal it.

"Sir, please have mercy on us. Let us deliver the stone," the old fiend begged.

"No way." The Rule Soul Avatar shook his head and rejected the appeal without any hesitation. The ten fiends' expression changed at once. While some were angry, others became desperate from the exhaustion.

"You idiot! You will earn only one day of rest when you hand in the Blood Stone. But if you let him take it, and continue digging for him, he will allow you to rest for several hours every day," Merle remarked disdainfully.

He could see that the Blood Stone was important to the Rule Soul Avatar, so he began to tempt the miners.

The ten fiends were stunned. 'Rest for a few hours every day? What a dream!' They turned to stare at the Rule Soul Avatar expectantly.

"Sir, is your friend telling the truth?" the old fiend's voice trembled as he asked.

"Yes."

The Rule Soul Avatar nodded.

Now that he had grasped the Shackle and Attack Laws in this mining area, it was easy for him to protect these fiends from being attacked.

The Rule Soul Avatar waved his hand and eliminated the restrictions on these ten fiends.

"Try it. Stop working for a little while," the Rule Soul Avatar instructed when he saw that the fiends continued to work.

Hearing this, the old fiend stopped mining tentatively.

Three seconds, six seconds, nine seconds...

Nothing happened even after dozens of seconds. The old fiend stood frozen, tears streaming down his face.

Plonk!

"Yes, it's true. We can take a break now!"

The old fiend fell to his knees as relief coursed through him.

"Thank you, My Lord..." His voice was choked with sobs.

The other nine fiends also stopped and prostrated themselves, sobbing with joy.

They felt this moment was the best in their lives.

"From now on, you will dig every morning and rest every afternoon. If you find any stones, hand them to me," the Rule Soul Avatar instructed.

"Yes, sir. We'll do it. Thank you!" the fiends replied in unison.

They were deeply grateful and kowtowed to express their gratitude.

"Let's go,"

the Rule Soul Avatar said to Merle.

"To save your woman?" Merle teased as he cast a sidelong glance at the Rule Soul Avatar.

Crack!

A streak of law struck Merle, making his face turn pale with pain. He glared at the Rule Soul Avatar but didn't dare to say anything more as they walked out of the mining area.

Soon, the two arrived at another mining area.

According to the Rule Soul Avatar's analysis, there were over nine hundred mining areas along this mountain range, and all of them contained Blood Stones.

The mine they had left was the smallest one. At least thirty thousand strong fiends were working inside the largest one. All the fiends mined for Blood Stones day and night without a break.

The Rule Soul Avatar had already decided that he was going to control all these mining areas.

From what he had learned, no one was guarding these mining areas. Thus, the Rule Soul Avatar could come and go freely without the need to disguise himself.

They came to a mining area that was modest. The hundreds of fiends who worked here day and night were not weak. The strongest among them could be comparable to cultivators at the top-level of the Celestial God Realm.

After briefly negotiating, the Rule Soul Avatar took control of the mining area. The fiends, who were allowed to take a few hours of rest a day, were deeply grateful to him. Unfortunately, there was no available Blood Stone in this mining area.
