Nobilis of War novel Chapter 1377

Upon seeing this scene, Darren started to understand why the straw man following him since the beginning was different from the rest.

It turned out that he was a variant straw man, and he wasn't restricted by the straw girl.

As the straw man walked over, Darren took the opportunity to dodge and go where Finley and the others were.

"How are you? Are you okay?"

"Darren, why are you here? Run away quickly! These straw men are very powerful." His companions were surprised and worried as they reunited with Darren.

"That's right. Look at me! I was beaten by those guys and got myself injured," Weber said, feeling very morose.

Swish!

Darren quickly released his sword intent and cut off the straw ropes binding them.

"Let's get out of here first," Darren said as he looked at the situation of the straw man and the straw girl.

Currently, they were in a stalemate. Both of them could not move freely, so Darren and the others planned to take this chance to run as far as they could.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

About thirty of them immediately flew away from that area.

At the same time, the ordinary straw men standing in the wilderness hesitated for a while when they saw Darren and the others escape. They were thinking if they should chase after them or not.

While they were left standing there, Darren and his companions managed to fly far away.

"Ah!"

Suddenly, they heard the straw girl roar viciously from the distance. Then, hundreds of ordinary straw men immediately moved and flew towards the direction of Darren and the rest.

Soon enough, they saw that a large group of straw men was already at their tails.

"Darren, how about we run away in different directions so we could lose them?" someone suggested as he saw that the straw men were already closing in.

"No!" Darren strongly refused. "There are too many of them. If we go our separate ways, we will easily be defeated by them one after another," he continued.

To be fair, the fighting power of their group was on par with that of the straw men. However, when it came to defense, they would surely be overwhelmed. After all, these straw men didn't feel any fatigue or pain. Needless to say, these young talents would definitely be at a disadvantage in battle.

Especially if they faced them in one-on-one or one-to-many battles, Darren was very certain that they would have no chance against them.

However, when they were together, things could go differently. All of them had different strengths, skills, and methods of fighting. Some were good at attacking, some specialized in healing, while some were good in making traps. Therefore, even if they were outnumbered, once they utilized their skills accordingly, they still had a chance to bring down these straw men.

Therefore, they should stick together instead of going their separate ways.

"You're right. For now, let's do our best to escape from them. If we have no other choice, then we'll engage them!"

As they made up their minds, everyone focused their strength into escaping.

"What?"

However, just as Darren and the others were flying fast to get away from the straw men, some figures in black suddenly appeared in front of them and blocked their way.

Only when they got close enough did Darren and the others realize that these figures in black were actually humans.

"Hey, don't just stand there! Run! The straw men are chasing us!" someone shouted to warn them.

However, these figures in black just stood still as if they didn't hear what the young talent said.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

Suddenly, more than ten streams of god's power shot towards Darren and his companions, forcing them to step back.

"What the hell do you think you're doing?!" one of Darren's companions shouted, thinking that these guys were nuts. Who on their right minds would just attack someone out of nowhere?

As Darren and his companions were forced to stop, the black figures flew over and surrounded them.

They started to realize that these men didn't just appear out of sheer coincidence. They felt these people's enmity towards their group.

"Fancy meeting you again here. Do you still remember me?"

one of the men stepped forward and said to Darren. He showed his face which was covered with scars. It could be noticed that they were caused by incurable injuries.

"Who the hell are you? What do you have against us?" one of the young talents shouted angrily.

"Ha! You guys are so forgetful." Upon saying that, the other men in black also drew closer to them.
