Semua Bab Revenge of the Night: Bab 1851 - Bab 1860

"Good to know that. Still, this is a fair system we have here. Contributions are rewarded, while bad behavior is punished. Stay on the straight and narrow." Nox looked at the generals. "Men, I came here for one thing and one thing only: to power you up."'To power us up?' Dylan snapped out of it, though he still wondered why Atlas told him to keep his mouth shut."His Highness doesn't want you to tell anyone about what you'll experience. We've vetted everyone before letting them in," Nox said and looked at Atlas again.Atlas cleared his throat. "Men, you're all accomplished warriors in your own right, but you share one flaw: you don't have enough talent. Without external help, you'll never get to the next level. General Strohm is, for the lack of a better word, a naive person."If news of my lord's actions reaches the wrong ears, we'd have rumors about the lord giving out favors to his friends going around before you can even say Faeast. It'd cost more than just the general's job i

Overall, Nox saw Douglas in a positive light, but he was a politician, and they were known for their game of thrones. They always spoke in riddles, and Nox didn't want to waste time figuring out what Douglas was hiding."The underground chamber was created by the previous administration and built on a Dragon's Vein. It's the cultivation ground of the previous emperor. Because of the shift in land quality, the Dragon's Vein lost its power, and the chamber eventually became a bunker," explained Jaculus.Nox pursed his lips. "Tell me something I don't know.""Very well. There is a demonoid sealed under the underground chamber. Sariel was the one who did it. The demonoid was grievously injured before the sealing, and they should've died a long time ago. However, the tectonic shift a few days ago revitalized the Dragon's Vein, and the demonoid gained a breakthrough."Nox understood what he was trying to say. Quilo was worried that the demonoid might break free, so he wanted to kill the

Since the guy didn't trust Jaculus, Nox had to speak to him telepathically. "Are you dumb?"The squad leader was pleasantly surprised to hear Nox's voice, and he almost yelled out 'milord'. Nox quickly said, "Shut it. I can't believe you used to work for me closely. This is the self-restraint you have? Keep this to yourself."The squad leader shut up right away, and he nodded, looking like he wanted to laugh and cry at the same time.After the mountain was moved, Nox told Jaculus he was going in. Before Nox could, Jaculus asked, "A question, milord. Just for the sake of this discussion, what if the demonoid has broken through to the next level? Can our obstacles stop him?""If he's a Supreme, yes. If he's a Pinnacle Legend Realm, it would be tough. We don't have to enter the chamber through the original entrance, and the same goes for the exit. Just wait for me. It shouldn't take long." Nox went inside.Nox walked along the crack between the two mountains and traveled down until h

At the same time, the other puppets came back to surround Nox. They banded together to cast a Forbidden Art, and a wave of chilling frost enveloped the underground chamber, freezing more than half the place.Nox swung his hand and created a barrier around him. Everything outside the barrier was frozen, but everything within was not affected."Yep, this is a mechanical soul, alright." Nox noticed the multitude of patterns carved on the crystal and the phantom fire flickering in its center. His Divine Sense could not penetrate the crystal to figure out exactly what was inside. He crushed the crystal, and the thing within was revealed to him.The phantom fire morphed into an evil spirit. Its face contorted with rage and agony, and the spirit pounced at Nox."Nothing but an evil spirit. This crystal uses souls as its fuel." Nox held up his hand to contain the evil spirit. He then scanned the spirit to find out its history.A moment later, Nox sighed. These evil spirits were powerful w

They were man-made life that had sentience. The Legend Realm puppets formed a circle around Nox and used the natural energy within them to create a protective formation.After they were done, Nox finally calmed down and drove all other thoughts out of his head. "Arise!" The needle split into thirty-two, and all the needles, infused with natural energy, started doing their work.If the King of Acupuncture saw Nox controlling thirty-two needles at the same time, he would have the shock of his life. All the needles seeped into Quilo's body. Natural energy was injected into Quilo's flesh, and Nox infused them with a part of his life essence.The tactician was in the play himself. If Nox wanted to save a dead man, he would have to plunge himself into the sea of death himself. He could only save Quilo if he could carry the weight of fate.Nox's technique easily cured the toxins of the Thirteen Needles of the Phantom King. Once the poison was gone, Quilo's life force would leave him fast.
