Night Ranger

”A rogue?”

”I hadn’t thought that the one who ran away last time was a Ranger.”

As he saw Marvin disappear, the Black Knight became filled with killing intent. ”This time, I’ll definitely grab him myself and steal his Divine item!”

”You two, follow me!”

The warhorse raised its head and broke into a gallop, the hooves echoing noisily.

As for the two called upon, the Legend Wizard and the Legend Temple Raider, they each had their own methods to keep up with him.

But the Tomb Raider didn’t move.

He stood there, his eyes darting around furtively.

The Black Knight’s cold voice suddenly echoed close by. ”If you dare escape, I’ll rip out your muscles.”

”You know what I can do.”

...

The Legend Powerhouses kept rushing forward across the underground wasteland.

The Black Knight felt somewhat disdainful of the Ranger in front of him because the fool apparently hadn’t researched the Divine Book very thoroughly.

He wanted to use Stealth to flee someone who also held the Book of Nalu. Wasn’t that a dream?

’Could he be unaware that the two pages of the Book of Nalu would react to each other when they are close enough?’

In Sangore’s eyes, it was a laughable joke that the rogue was trying to escape while using Stealth.

He effortlessly kept track of Marvin’s location and continued chasing after him.

But he felt somewhat strange. What was that guy doing near Devil Town?

If that guy was here for Sodom’s Blades, then there was no reason to avoid Devil Town and keep fleeing toward the east.

There was only one entrance to Devil Town!

And that was the place being guarded by the Tomb Raider.

Moreover, Black Knight Sangore wasn’t someone that trusted others too much, always preferring to believe in his own strength.

After being taught a lesson by the Cloud Monk in the Dead Area, he put in a lot of effort trying to increase his own strength so that he would be one day be able to defeat that repulsive Monk.

But before his strength could reach the level he needed, that fool went to defend the Universe Magic Pool.

Facing the Gods… It sounded quite hot-blooded, didn’t it?

But to a Half-Human Half-Devil like Sangore, such an action seemed extremely stupid.

This kind of person simply didn’t deserve long life and such formidable strength.

’This world is about to face enormous changes.’

’Power and talent are everything. Only the weak believe that this is a disaster. In the eyes of the strong, this is an opportunity!’

The Black Knight took out a long whip and sped up.

Marvin was extremely fast, but he wasn’t a warhorse.

The pursuit went on for ten kilometers, and just before Sangore’s group caught up to him, he suddenly turned around and showed a crafty smile to Sangore and the others.

The next second, his silhouette suddenly disappeared again!

Sangore paled, abruptly turning his horse.

”We must return!”

...

Earlier on, before Marvin showed his face to Sangore and the others, he had spent some time to stealthily arrange a small-scale Teleportation Array!

This Magic Tool was extremely expensive and most of them were used by Wizards only in extreme emergencies.

Even before the Great Calamity, the number of these items that were produced by the Craftsman Tower didn’t exceed two digits.

It was surprisingly expensive.

Madeline had once bought a pair as a back-up.

As a result, it now gave Marvin a small advantage.

Before this trip to the Underdark, he had considered the numerous powerhouses there and the unfathomable strength of the Final Ghost Mother… In fact, without the Demon Subduing Sword, which would naturally be able to restrain her, that Plane Guardian-level monster in the Eternal Frozen Spring that had lived for countless years would be impossible to defeat.

Thus, Marvin took some useful items from the warehouses with him, including these two magic items.

He would only use them when they were critically needed.

Marvin hadn’t expected that before even meeting the Dark Specter Clan, he would meet Black Knight Sangore.

If Sangore was alone, Marvin definitely wouldn’t be so extravagant. He had absolute confidence in his own strength.

But the Black Knight had three companions!

Especially because of that Wizard, Marvin didn’t dare to fight them face to face.

The Temple Raider would simply rely on speed to contend with him. Generally, Temple Raiders were specialized in speed, it definitely wasn’t out of the question for them to have Godly Dexterity.

As for the Black Knight, he had the power of Devils and he was very powerful. Nobody knew how many had perished to his spear, and with the Wizard eyeing him like he was prey, even Marvin didn’t dare to attack from the front.

He was targeting Sodom’s Blades in Devil Town, not the Black Knight’s neck.

If he could attract Sangore’s attention and draw him away, Marvin would be able to easily get inside!

Meeting Sangore after getting his hands on Sodom’s Blades would be a lot easier for Marvin.

And the situation really went as he had planned.

The Black Knight realized that he had been tricked as he blankly watched Marvin teleport away.

It would be already too late by the time they returned!

...

On the hill, Marvin’s silhouette suddenly appeared and turned into a frightening Griffin!

Although the pitiful Tomb Raider was extremely nimble, with the terrain lacking cover, how could he resist a Royal Griffin?

Although he fled as fast as he could and used high level footwork in order to dodge Marvin’s claws, he eventually was caught in the Griffin’s claws and lifted high in the air!

After catching the Tomb Raider, the Griffin let out a clear whistle. Marvin flapped his wings flew in front of Devil Town!

”Bang!”

The Tomb Raider was throw in front of the City Wall.

Before he could recover, a dagger was already at his neck!

”I know you aren’t one of Sangore’s people, so rest assured... If there is no problem, I won’t kill you.”

Marvin spoke quickly because he could already sense Sangore approaching from the distance.

The Legend Wizard had been somewhat careless. Without a Teleportation Gate installed here, even if she opened a Teleportation Door to try to close the distance, it still wouldn’t be enough!

Marvin had at least thirty seconds before they’d be back at the entrance to Devil Town.

For a Ruler of the Night, thirty seconds would be enough to do a lot of things, such as negotiating. ”However, I need your help,” he continued.

”Help me open the entrance of the Blood Emperor’s tomb, and I’ll let you go. How about it?”

The Tomb Raider looked bitterly at the curved dagger on his neck. In this situation, he knew that if he dared to hesitate for a second too long, his head would fall to the ground.

”Okay,” he agreed.

He didn’t feel any qualms about the betrayal. It was a matter of who was forcing him. At least the youth here seemed more normal than Black Knight Sangore.

Marvin quickly rushed in front of Devil Town and took out the key before inserting it.

The entrance opened.

A light yellow mist came out, irritating their noses. But the two of them were Legend powerhouses, so this kind of small hindrance wasn’t a major deal to them.

”Let’s go in!” Marvin urged.

The Tomb Raider helplessly took the lead in, followed closely by Marvin.

But when they entered, they saw a Watcher gazing at them attentively!

It made them feel a slight chill!
