Night Ranger

Chapter 594: Seed (1)



The Book of Nalu was Black Knight Sangore’s last resort.

Marvin was too fast for Sangore to use his special abilities from Hell that Saydis had granted him.

Offensive skills weren’t very useful when he couldn’t even keep track of his target.

Moreover, Sangore had found out from Saydis that Marvin was also closely related to Hell, so those abilities might not be able to injure him.

At this point, he could only take out his trump card!

The Book of Nalu was an Artifact, while also being a terrifying, evil book.

Marvin had always been wary of the Book of Nalu, making sure not to let it invade his soul.

Because of how careful Marvin was, the Book of Nalu had no chance to control his mind, but he also wasn’t able to get many benefits from it.

Besides sometimes using it to control someone’s soul, the Book of Nalu was nothing more than a hot potato to Marvin.

But it was different for the Black Knight.

His soul had already been offered to Saydis so he had no problem with digging deep in the Book of Nalu, exploring the Artifact’s powers.

It could even be said that the power of the 2nd Page, Prosperity, was almost fully under his control.

"I command you!"

The Black Knight’s voice echoed through the room.

"Kneel!"

A powerful force began to burst out of the Book of Nalu, shrouding the whole room in a mix of crimson and yellow aura.

And as if following the Black Knight’s imposing order, Marvin’s originally flickering silhouette began slowing down at a visible rate!

It felt as if a big hand came out of nowhere and pressed down on Marvin.

That hand was pushing on his back, trying to force him to kneel!

Marvin frowned, knowing that this was the ability from the Book of Nalu!

He couldn’t kneel because if he did, he might become a slave like the two outside!

Marvin’s formidable willpower allowed him to resist the power of the Prosperity page.

Then, he took an item out from his chest pocket.

The Black Knight’s expression became unsightly!

After being in touch with the Book of Nalu for so many years, he naturally recognized what Marvin took out!

Compared to the rolled page in his hand, what Marvin was holding looked slightly more like a book.

He realized that Marvin had already obtained at least two pages of the Book of Nalu!

"How could it be? ... No!"

The Black Knight froze. While he knew that Marvin had a page of the Book of Nalu, it hadn’t occurred to him that this youth might have more than one page!

For so many years, the Black Knight Monastery’s goal had been to secretly gather the pages of the Book of Nalu, but despite all their effort, they had only managed to gather some ambiguous information.

Sangore believed that the pages of the Book of Nalu should be extremely elusive and that most of them probably hadn’t even been found.

But the cruel truth hit him in the face.

Under Marvin’s cold stare, the power from the Prosperity page weakened greatly.

"Want me to kneel?"

"I’m afraid you aren’t able to make me."

He opened the Book of Nalu in his hand, silently giving it an order.

’Swallow!’

"Wuwuwu!"

The low whimper echoed through the air as the Book of Nalu in Marvin’s hands emitted an even brighter radiance.

The book in Marvin’s hands started causing a great suction force.

The Black Knight firmly grasped the Prosperity page in his hands, but it was futile.

Marvin’s Book of Nalu had been enhanced by consuming Divine Source!

The pages all had the ability to swallow or combine with each other.

Under the relentless pull from the 6th page, Rebirth, as well as the 11th page, Reincarnation, Prosperity finally broke out of the Black Knight’s hands.

The pale yellow parchment flew into Marvin’s hands like a moth attracted by fire, and quickly turned into a gentle glow as it merged with the other two pages of the Book of Nalu!

A formidable power was gathering in Marvin’s hands.

At the same time, the tempting voice beside his ears became even louder.

But this temptation was nothing in front of Marvin’s willpower.

With the Book of Nalu like that, Sodom’s Blades didn’t even seem worth mentioning.

In a few seconds, the pages of the Book of Nalu finished fusing.

Now it was thicker, and although there were only three pages, it seemed even more like an Artifact.

Marvin roused the runes of the Wisdom Chapter in his mind to suppress the restless Book of Nalu, leaving it in storage for now.

The power of the Book of Nalu had to be handled properly. Otherwise, unless he continued to increase his willpower, problems would arise.

After all, this book once made a God explode his own God Realm.

Marvin never relaxed.

"What next?" Marvin sneered arrogantly as he glanced at the Black Knight.

The latter’s expression became pale under his black helmet before he charged crazily at Marvin!

...

A minute later, Marvin had recovered, and he walked silently toward the stone wall.

After losing the blessing of the Book of Nalu, the poor Black Knight Sangore simply wasn’t Marvin’s opponent.

In order to settle the fight quickly, Marvin used Ruler’s Wrath.

In that limited space, the Black Knight simply couldn’t dodge well enough to avoid the attacks of such a powerful Ranger.

He died full of grievance, forcibly stomped to death by Marvin.

Because his soul was in Saydis’ hands, after his physical body was crushed, he would fall to oblivion.

His body was very sturdy, almost invulnerable.

But faced with Marvin’s might, under that frightening foot, Sangore was directly crushed to death.

Despite this, Marvin also felt some pain after returning to normal.

That guy really was made of metal. If he hadn’t lost his mind after losing the Book of Nalu, throwing himself at Marvin for no reason, Marvin would have had to pay a price to kill him, since he’d been weakened from using Diamond Shape.

But now, the Black Knight was dead, the Prosperity page was in his hands, and the other two had become Marvin’s slaves.

[Prosperity] had a fairly powerful soul-swallowing and control ability. Compared with [Rebirth], it could control more souls.

However, these people could only use a smaller portion of their strength, so in this regard, Prosperity was inferior to Rebirth.

Now that the pages had combined, the Book of Nalu’s pages mutually compensated for each of their weaknesses. Marvin felt a little weird now that he controlled four people, but he didn’t feel much strain.

’Should still have room for two or three more.’

This was Marvin’s estimate.

But normally, Marvin wouldn’t go around seeking people out to swallow their souls and make them his subordinates.

...

Standing beside the wall, Marvin still had yet to notice the changes that he had undergone during the battle.

His attention was focused on Sodom’s Blades.

His hands were on the handles.

’Now, let’s have a serious discussion...’ He transmitted this firm message to the Spirit inside the blades.

The latter remained silent for a long time.

It may have been shocked by Marvin’s spiritual power. After a long time, it slowly replied, ’These are my weapons, no one can use them without my permission.’

’You are indeed qualified to become their owners, but I need your help to do something.’

’Before you do that, my blades will temporarily follow you, but you’ll be unable to use their full strength.’

Marvin narrowed his eyes. ’Are you trying to negotiate with me?’

That voice bitterly responded, ’I really hate to have my beloved weapons submit to someone else. If I were still alive, I would definitely dismember you.’

Marvin shrugged. ’Unfortunately, you already died. A millennium has passed. You shouldn’t even have a fragment of your soul remaining.’

The Spirit sneered, ’Even though I died, I can still take my Artifact down with me.’

’I’ve always been their master.’

Marvin sighed. ’There is no need. This is just a pair of weapons. You destroyed my best weapons, and I’ve yet to ask you for compensation.’

The Spirit snorted, ’Vulgar Human. You should know that your most beloved weapons would never betray you.’

’Other things are unreliable.’

Marvin didn’t feel like listening to the tyrant’s story and bluntly asked, ’What is it that you need?’

’I have a seed,’ the Spirit quickly explained, " and I need you to deliver it to a woman."

’It is extremely important. If you complete that task, these daggers will be yours, and I’ll disappear.’

An image of a woman appeared in Marvin’s mind.

"Eh?" Marvin was in a daze.

’How could it be her?’ he wondered to himself.
