Night Ranger - Full Series - 735 Chapters

  There was a strange cliff above him that was filled with jewels.

  These jewels were embedded in cracks in the stone, emitting a radiant glow.

  This radiance was harmful to the human body, and also the only source of light in the Underdark. Lifeforms able to survive here were ravaged by the radiation, but it also helped temper their bodies.

  Marvin stood there, looking down.

  A vast city was now spread in front of him.

  He faintly squinted.

  Four shadows were standing in front of the city, facing Marvin.

  Both sides were already aware of each other.

  The Book of Nalu was emitting heat continuously. That guy was clearly very excited!

  ‘Another page of the Book of Nalu…’

  ‘Four Legends.’

  ‘No good…’

  Marvin had made some errors in judgement before.

  He had thought that there were only four people in Sangore’s team. He hadn’t expected a fifth.

  That guy seemed to have made many preparations to go to the tomb of the Bloody Emperor. In all of Feinan, Temple Raiders and Tomb Raiders were very few in number!

  There were very few Legend rogues that would advance through these kinds of side classes. Finding 2 or 3 of them wouldn’t be that easy, right?

  Moreover, he also had a Legend caster.

  Along with the Leader of the Crimson Road that he just got rid of, it could be seen how profound the Black Knight Monastery was.

  When Marvin killed the Leader of the Crimson Road, he found out that the other side’s soul was very strange.

  He had come up with a guess, which was that the leader of the Crimson Road was more or less like Madeline.

  No wonder Marvin had eliminated him so easily in the end despite his impressive physical ability.

  But this challenge wasn’t as simple.

  In the distance, the Black Knight’s spear was pointing at Marvin, killing intent seeping from it.

  Marvin sneered, and his silhouette disappearing from view.

  “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 Roy
al 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!

  After Marvin entered Devil Town, the entrance immediately closed!

  “Bang!”

  The Black Knight’s group didn’t have time to get close before they were blocked outside by the door.

  Marvin wasn’t surprised by this because he already knew that the entrance to Devil Town would only be opened for a short moment. Only the holder of the key could smoothly go in.

  Sangore angrily punched the thick city gate and roared, “He had the key!”

  “He killed Stang and snatched my key. His goal is definitely the Bloody Emperor!”

  The Wizard also had an unsightly expression as she asked, “What should we do now?”

  The Black Knight was silent for a moment before a cold laughter suddenly erupted from his body.

  “Your laughter is tiresome, Saydis,” Sangore muttered, apparently unsurprised.

  A pure-blooded Devil appeared in front of them.

  “Seems like you’ve encountered another problem, my friend.” Saydis had a smile plastered across his face, and although he looked like a Devil, he gave off a likable feeling.

  “Don’t look at me like that, every time you meet some trouble, I offer you a solution, don’t I?”

  “I’m the one who helped you survive until now and become this powerful.”

  Sangore sneered, “Don’t make yourself look like a philanthropist! You obtained many things from me.”

  “Of course, of course. Fair trade is the basis of cooperation.” Saydis licked his lips. “You know the strength of Sodom’s Blades. If that boy gets his hands on them… I’ll let you in on a little secret. You and he both have the bloodline and status of someone of the Nine Hells. His bloodline is even nobler than yours, so he might have an easier time receiving the acknowledgement of the Bloody Emperor and inheriting his legacy.”

  The Black Knight shook at the revelation. “He doesn’t have a Devilish aura!”

  Saydis shrugged and said with an air of mystery, “Diross, the Lord of the [Scorched Hell], is his grandfather. The Molten Archdevil’s bloodline flows in his body. You must be slow to not have noticed this. If he obtains that slaughterer’s inheritance this time, he will also gain the power of the Lord of the 3rd Hell.”

  “Do you think you’ll be able to be his opponent then?”

  The Black Knight remained silent with a serious expression on his face.

  Saydis’ tone was full of temptation as he whispered, “Just like I was able to tell you the location of the Bloody Emperor’s tomb, I can also help you enter Devil Town!”

  The Black Knight dryly answered, “But I don’t have anything suitable to trade with you anymore.”

  “You took my soul and everything I have already. What did you take a fancy to this time?”

  Saydis laughed mischievously as his gaze fell onto the Legend Wizard to the side. “Eh, Sangore, you pitiful Black Knight. Since you already know you’ve lost everything, why do you still care about the obsessions of mortals?”

  “Why do you still cling to your origins as a mortal?”

  “You shouldn’t do so, and you aren’t fit for romance.”

  “Give her soul to me, and I’ll send you to Devil Town.”

  Sangore didn’t speak for a while. The Wizard’s expression changed as she yelled, “We can still enter Devil Town without you!”

  She looked at the Black Knight on his horse, the man she foolishly fell in love with a century ago.

  And she saw the tip of that spear approaching.

  A Devil’s laughter rang out just in front of the entrance to Devil Town, echoing sweetly like a bell.

  It was a terrifying sound.

  …

  Marvin was cautiously walking forward.

  Many Watchers were staring at them.

  Marvin couldn’t help but feel fidgety when he looked at that sole eye.

  In an instant, he like his heart was being plunged into the depths of despair!

  He was too tired to live, it would be better to die.

  Death would solve everything.

  These ideas seemed to echo in his heart.

  ‘[Suicidal Curse]…’

  Marvin took a deep breath.

  His eyes regained their shine.

  His willpower had already reached a frighteningly high level, and thus, the Suicidal Curse that would have been able to destroy most Legend powerhouses couldn’t overcome him.

  The pitiful Tomb Raider instantly got hit by the curse, but thankfully, Marvin reacted quickly and used a black cloth to cover his eyes.

  Otherwise, he might have already killed himself.

  Marvin had the Tomb Raider follow along behind him.

  ‘Devil Town… Devil Town…’

  ‘Could it be that the Bloody Emperor was related to the Devils?’

  These kinds of doubts rose up in Marvin’s heart.

  The eyes made him think of one of the Archdevils of the Nine Hells!

  The Eye Tyrant Archdevil.

  An Archdevil of the Nine Hells, one of the most powerful existences of the entire Universe. These Watchers felt very similar to that Archdevil.

  For the Bloody Emperor to put his tomb in such a town, he might have had some sort of relationship with Devils.

  This hadn’t been mentioned in the post.

  Marvin was on high alert because the guide had left out many details. It was human nature to hide the most important parts that could benefit oneself.

  But Marvin felt that Devils were still better than Demons and Evil Spirits.

  Devils had their own sets of rules. They had a crazy obsession with contracts and agreements.

  Marvin had had many dealings with Devils in the game, and he even had some sort of relationsh
ip with them in this life, as he was carrying the bloodline of the Nine Hells.

  As long as he found the entrance to the tomb, getting Sodom’s Blades shouldn’t be an issue.

  But they ran into some trouble as they progressed.

  The Tomb Raider was obviously very experienced with breaking into tombs. His knowledge of graves and tombs was extensive.

  He had deeply researched the famous historical tombs, and Devil Town was also included.

  Marvin needed his help to find the entrance to the Tomb.

  But he couldn’t open his eyes. Although he was a Legend, his willpower was clearly not high enough to resist them. He might die anytime if he tried to meet these Watchers’ gazes.

  After thinking for a bit, Marvin came up with a possible solution.

  He described the terrain in front of him to the Tomb Raider.

  After he was done listening, that guy analyzed the path with his skills.

  Although this method was quite slow and might have some inaccuracies, it was also the best they could come up with at the moment.

  Relying on the Tomb Raider’s understanding of tombs, the two men slowly went deeper into Devil Town.

  They soon reached the center of the town.

  Instead of the short houses that were near the entrance, they were surrounded by much taller buildings now. The Watchers were also much fewer in number here.

  But the unease in Marvin’s heart didn’t lessen.

  These buildings had strange shapes and felt even more startling than those Watchers.

  Even though he was blindfolded, the Tomb Raider also sensed the terror of this place.

  He softly muttered, “I keep having this ominous feeling.”

  “I feel as if someone has been secretly spying on us. But not those eyes.”

  “I feel… as if this town is alive!”

  In fact, Marvin also had that strange feeling as they were moving through the town!

  Devil Town was filled with strange buildings and Watchers, but there were no traces of anyone else, no constructs or guardians.

  But Marvin’s Perception somehow led him to think that this place was like a bustling market!

  His ears were picking up something that gave him an indistinct feeling.
