Nobilis of War novel Chapter 1504

"Attack me with all your might!"

Darren flew down and landed right in front of the Devil King.

"I don't think that's such a good idea," the Devil King said hesitantly.

"Are you asking for death?" Darren's expression darkened.

"Don't kill me, My Lord. I'll listen to your every order!"

Then, Darren charged towards the Devil King like a madman.

Clang!

The sound of metal colliding echoed all throughout the space. The Devil King, who had thrown his hands up to block Darren's attack, was flung backwards violently upon impact. To his surprise, he saw that his claws had been destroyed.

"What?!"

The Devil King stared at his mangled hands incredulously. What sort of defense was this? It was as hard as meteoric iron! He began to tremble in fear.

"Ha-ha!" Darren smiled in satisfaction. He just proved his physical strength was more than enough to resist the attack of a middle-level deputy god!

Even the Rule Soul Avatar, who had been quietly observing, felt that this was an incredible feat.

His real body, at the top level of the Celestial God Realm, was able to resist the attack of the deputy god. At this point, Darren's body could definitely be considered a divine weapon.

"Congratulations," the Rule Soul Avatar said indifferently.

Darren nodded, but then his face fell. In a low voice, he said, "I have some bad news..."

"What is it?"

"It seems I have reached the limit of the Celestial God Realm." This meant that Darren could break through to the Superior God Realm at any given time.

Hearing this, the Rule Soul Avatar frowned slightly.

"I didn't feel any signs pointing towards your breakthrough..." Even with the Rule Soul Avatar's Spirit Power and keen senses, he hadn't felt any signs of Darren's breakthrough. There didn't seem to be any improvements in his real body's realm.

The Rule Soul Avatar's frown deepened as he told Darren of his concerns.

"Is that so?" Darren's brows furrowed in confusion.

"Yes," the Rule Soul Avatar affirmed.

"I don't know about this. Let's go back first." Then, turning to the Devil King, Darren barked, "Lead the way, in order to prove your sincerity."

"Yes, sir," the Devil King responded and bowed respectfully.

This time around, Darren and the Rule Soul Avatar moved much more cautiously. If they met another giant beast, they were doomed.

After flying about a million kilometers, they came across a lake.

The water of the lake was so crystal clear, Darren felt he could stare into the depths of the lake if he wanted to. Otherwise, the place was utterly silent and there was no living thing in sight.

"My Lord, please summon the child's parents. I plan to apologize to their face," the Devil King humbly asked.

Darren and the Rule Soul Avatar didn't answer him initially. First, they checked the surroundings using their god's sense. To their surprise, they found that there wasn't a single human being's aura.

There was absolutely no life here!

"Give the baby to me," Darren barked. Holding the baby in his arms, he surveyed the area cautiously.

Whirling to face the Devil King, Darren shouted angrily, "Don't lie to me! Where are the humans?"

The Devil King was rendered speechless. Didn't these two men know that this was where the human race gathered?

"Tell me!" Darren roared. His sword intent began to surge like crazy.

Darren was no longer afraid of the Devil King. After all, his physical defense alone was enough to make him feel invincible.

"Sir, I swear I'm not lying!" The Devil King trembled under Darren's fierce gaze. He remembered this place clearly, and he had even ordered his subordinates to look for a baby here.

The Rule Soul Avatar frowned. Even he couldn't figure out if the devil was telling the truth or not.

"My real body, why not get the baby to cry for a while?"

Darren nodded, immediately catching on. The baby's parents must've been worried sick about the loss of their child. Perhaps they would show themselves if they heard the baby's cry.

"Little baby, I'm sorry. I have to frighten you for a bit. Hopefully, your parents will show themselves after this..."

Darren looked at the baby sympathetically. Then, he tossed it high into the air.

"Wah-wah. Wah-wah..." The baby immediately burst into tears, probably scared out of its wits.

Darren tried to hurry over to catch it.

Purr, purr...

Just then, the depths of the lake began to bubble.

It seemed as though the entire lake had come to a boil, its waters surging over menacingly.
