Nobilis of War

Chapter 1378 A Plight

"You bastards are worse than Sewell!" Someone finally had enough and cursed at them. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Nobody in their right mind would want to die. However, these guys caved in and begged for mercy at

the slightest bit of danger. They had no backbone at all!

"Is there anyone else who wants to follow suit? Please, come out!" Darren said.

He wasn't friends with these people. Some of them wanted to beg for mercy to keep their lives, and

they didn't want to go through the trials needed for them to become stronger. Darren realized that this

was happening because he needed to weed out the losers. They didn't deserve his companionship.

No one came out.

"Have you all made up your minds? I'm giving you another thirty seconds. Once I remove the colorful

flag, you'll all die. Think about your master. Think about your dearest companions. Is Darren really

worth all the trouble? He's nothing but trash!"

Sewell tried to persuade them.

"Fuck off, you despicable man. I am not like these guys. They are all cowards!"

"You piece of trash! I am not afraid of dying! You want us to beg for mercy? You don't deserve it!"

"I would rather die early. I have never been afraid of being killed."

Protests erupted from the group of young talents on Darren's side.

Sewell was humiliated, and anger began to boil in his heart.

"Go to hell, all of you!" Sewell removed the suppression on the straw men.

In an instant, all the straw men came alive. One by one, they attacked Darren and the others.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Darren and his companions used their god's power to force the straw men backward.

However, they were impervious to pain and it did not do much to slow them down. Soon, they began

launching the second set of attacks.

The straw men were able to penetrate their ranks.

"Let's work together and kill them one by one!"

More than twenty people rushed towards several straw men simultaneously. Even though their

defenses were strong, they could not withstand the strong god's power. One of them was killed on the

spot.

Hurting a few straw men did not seem to have that much of an impact on the battle.

Hundreds of straw men began to attack Darren and his companions.

The entire sky erupted into chaos. God's power spread in all directions.

Sewell and his companions enjoyed themselves in the air. Sewell was ecstatic to see Darren

struggling, and his heart swelled with joy thinking that Darren would die.

"Sewell, you are so lucky! A good man deserves a good reward. You were not only able to enter the

second pass, but you were also able to get the divine weapon. Congratulations!"

"By the way, Sewell, how did you get in here? Did you rein in the battle beast and kill the black cavalry?

I guess you must have shown your great power and killed all the black cavalrymen! Ha! Such great

power."

The five men who had begged for mercy began to flatter Sewell shamelessly. They thought that feeding

his ego would help them curry favor with him.

"Cut the crap. Get out and hide yourselves in a corner." The five men hurriedly rushed to a corner and

squatted down, not making any noise.

"You idiots! If I didn't happen to get the flag, I would have been killed because of you idiots,"

Sewell roared.

After Sewell and the others were driven out of the team, they didn't dare stay in the relic any longer.

They wanted to find a way out.

They only got more and more confused as they walked forward. They accidentally entered an area

shrouded in fog. There, they were chased by unknown creatures, narrowly escaping death multiple

times. In the end, they were driven into a dark, dank cave. They despaired, thinking they had met a

dead end.

However, a miracle happened. Someone finally found the hidden colorful flag. After sacrificing a few

lives, they had finally got the flag!

The colorful flag had the mysterious power to drive away the creatures chasing them.

They came out of the foggy area and came straight to the wilderness.

They didn't expect to meet anyone else in the wilderness. After walking for a long time, they ran into

someone. They cornered him and questioned him and by doing so, they found out about everyone who

had been there, too.

"Sewell, I had no choice at that time. I never even thought of helping Darren."

"Me too."

The five men looked deeply aggrieved.

"It's useless to say anything now. After all those people die, it will be your turn to fight." Sewell stared at

them coldly. The five men were terrified and were shook to the core.

"Sewell, we don't want to die..."

Bang! Bang! Bang! Sewell dealt a swift blow to each one of them.

"You son of a bitch! How dare you lie to us?!"

It was not until the five men felt pain all over their bodies that they realized that Sewell was not going to

protect them at all. He wanted them all to die!

All five men were wracked with desperation.

"If it makes you feel better, I'm not lying to just you. Let me tell you. I had met more than ten people

before. They didn't need to die. Those straw men just wanted to take them away. However, when they

met me, they had to die. Ha!" Sewell laughed sadistically.

The five men thought of the corpses they had seen in the base camp of the straw men.

"Sewell, how dare you kill your companions?! Even if you get out alive, you will face severe punishment

and judgment from the Ancestral Land. Your arrogance will be the death of you!"

"You are such an ignorant fool. Do you think I will do it myself? This colorful flag can release killing

intent and infuse it into the straw men. I can command them to kill people. I don't even have to get my

hands dirty. Humph!"

Sewell was truly diabolical! He had commanded the straw men to kill his companions. The Ancestral

Land wouldn't be able to detect him.

"Sewell, I beg you. I apologize. I'm willing to give all my treasures to you. Please spare my life. I'll follow

your lead forever!"

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The men got a violent beating.

On the other side, Darren and his companions fought valiantly against their enemies.

However, they were outnumbered. There were just too many straw men.

"Kill them! Kill them! Kill them!"

Seeing someone from Darren's side fall, Sewell smiled grotesquely. He poured the killing intent from

the colorful flag into the bodies of several straw men.

The straw men immediately killed those who had fallen.

"This is your doom!"

The battle raged on. A full day later, Darren and his companions huddled together. Only more than ten

of them were left.

Finley, Weber and Sally were seriously injured. If it weren't for Darren's protection, they would have

been killed by the straw men.

"Darren, we can't escape this time," Weber said, smiling bitterly.

"Darren, thank you for taking care of me. I'm not afraid of dying, as long as it's with you guys," Sally

said.

They all felt that it was their time to die.

"Kill! Kill them all!"

Sewell raged about from where he stood. He had a wild look in his eyes. It was the look of a crazed

man with nothing to lose. He activated the colorful flag and released a majestic killing intent, pouring it

into the body of every straw man.

Suddenly, all the straw men became more furious. They looked more terrifying than they had before.

"Finley, Darren, we are coming!"

"Sally, Weber, are you all right?"

Suddenly, about a hundred people flew over to them.

Hearing the familiar voice, Darren and the others turned their heads to look, only to see that Lindsay

and Beatty were flying toward them.

"Lindsay, run!" Finley shouted.

"Lindsay, don't come over!" Darren and Weber also roared.

However, they did not stop. They flew even faster.

"Hurry up! Save them!"

"Howl!"

A fluffy giant beast suddenly appeared. His body kept growing until he covered the sky and blocked out

the sun.
