Nobilis of War novel Chapter 1488

Upon returning to the Second Dangerous Area, Darren went straight to the valley where the metal creatures were placed.

There, he found the metal creatures acting anxiously and keeping vigilant.

While Darren was supposed to have control over these metal creatures now, he had no clue what was going on in their metallic brains.

Left without any other option, Darren and the others were forced to quietly hide themselves among the metal creatures.

Half a month passed.

"This is too weird. The moment we arrived, everything began to move smoothly," Murray muttered under his breath.

They had been hiding for so many days, but nothing out of the ordinary had happened.

"Maybe someone is secretly keeping watch on us." Darren's expression darkened slightly. Now that he mentioned it, he felt that someone was staring straight at them.

"Ha-ha!" Murray smiled. He seemed to understand what Darren meant.

After all, the Second Dangerous Area was still under the rule of the special metal creature. If it wasn't him that was making them uneasy, who else could it be?

"We should make a plan."

"I agree!"

"Let's leave these metal creatures alone for now."

Thus, Darren and Murray flew away with the two Bloodsucker Princes.

The valley where the metal creatures roamed remained quiet for three more days. However, on the fourth day, the metal creatures grew restless and even looked panic.

Whoosh!

A purple figure suddenly appeared in the valley, but just as quickly, it disappeared.

The purple figure kept popping up at seemingly random spots in the valley. However, wherever it appeared, dozens of metal creatures disintegrated into golden fragments.

In the span of minutes, the purple figure killed nearly a thousand metal creatures, yet none of them ever showed signs of resistance.

All of a sudden, several powerful auras suddenly filled the atmosphere.

The purple figure's head shot up, as though it sensed something all of a sudden. Then, it tried to retreat hurriedly.

"No escaping, not on my watch!"

A spear then fell from the sky, landing right in front of the purple figure, effectively blocking its way.

Bang!

The impact of the powerful spear intent blew the purple figure backwards. Its vulnerable position made it clear for Darren and the others to see its real body.

"It's really you..."

Darren and the two Bloodsucker Princes gathered together.

Before them was a purple-gold metal creature! Its appearance and aura were unlike any other metal creature.

Helplessly, the purple-gold metal creature continued to struggle.

"Since you have showed yourself to us, you should surrender obediently, or we will kill you. I'm sure you understand the gravity of the situation, right?" Darren said to the purple gold metal creature.

Now that it was up close, Darren could feel that the aura of the purple-gold metal creature was very powerful. In fact, it seemed to be even more powerful than that of Murray.

But at present, Darren possessed a powerful army of nearly one hundred thousand metal creatures. If he wanted, these metal creatures could definitely use the cooperative method to attack the purple-gold metal creature together.

In such a case, the purple-gold metal creature wouldn't stand a chance.

"Why won't you surrender?"

Seeing that the purple-gold metal creature showed no intentions of submitting to him, Darren made a show of mobilizing his army.

"Roar! Roar! Roar!"

The purple-gold metal creature suddenly began to roar ferociously, and the whole Second Dangerous Area shook under its echoes.

"What the—?"

In the east of the Second Dangerous Area, golden light suddenly burst out, rendering the sky golden.

In the distance, countless metal creatures filled the skies and were headed straight for the valley.

"I see!"

It finally dawned on Darren. Those missing metal creatures had been hidden by this special metal creature this whole time!

Now that it was forced into a corner, the purple-gold metal creature had summoned its hidden metal creatures. Its message was clear: it was going to fight with Darren to the death.

Darren gritted his teeth agitatedly as he watched the metal creatures in the distance steadily closing in on them.

They were definitely outnumbered. Darren's thoughts raced. He knew that once the battle began, he might be suppressed or even killed before he'd even get the chance to subdue the opposing metal creatures.

The purple-gold metal creature began to release a malicious aura. Around it, purple whirlwinds formed, swirling violently. It stood there majestically, as though it was declaring to Darren that it was the true master here.

Darren was in a pickle. If he fought head on, his army didn't stand a chance against that of his opponent.

"Let's go!"

As soon as Darren gave the order, his army immediately sprang into action and automatically got into a circle formation, with Darren and his companions in the center. Together, they slowly retreated.

The purple-gold metal creature had already chosen to reveal its trump card, so there was no way it would let Darren leave so easily.

"Ah!"

it roared thunderously, and the densely packed metal creatures swarmed towards the circle and began to attack.

"Block them using your strongest fighting method!"

Darren barked. Immediately, every three hundred metal creatures formed a team. With their powerful auras, they contended with the other hundreds of thousands of metal creatures.

Meanwhile, the purple-gold metal creature continued to roar, commanding its subordinates to attack.

To Darren's delight, it seemed that his opponent's metal creatures were weaker than his. He could use this to his advantage!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

In the Second Dangerous Area, golden light burst out and blinded everyone for a second.

When Darren regained his vision, he saw that the earth was torn apart by powerful forces, and the space was constantly collapsing. It was like a doomsday event.

When the battle had broken out, thanks to the protection of his army of metal creatures, Darren and his companions were relatively unharmed.

"We have to find a way to control its subordinates!"

While it might've been easy for Darren and his companions to control a small number of those metal creatures, they knew there was no possible way for them to convert such a large number of them in so short a time.

"Darren, I have an idea. Order your troops to besiege the opposing metal creatures who are rushing in the front with all their strength. Tell them to besiege thousands of metal creatures at a time. Then you can bring them under your control. That way, we can slowly encroach on our enemy's force," Murray suggested, his eyes twinkling.

"But my troops will suffer great casualties..." The number of Darren's metal creatures was far less than that of his opponent's. If he still tried to trap his opponent's metal creatures, then those metal creatures on the outer perimeter of the circle formation were bound to die.

"There will be a lot of deaths, but think about it," Murray said seriously. "We can slowly transform most, if not all, its subordinates. As long as we do a good job, we can make the number of dead metal creatures equal to the number of newly controlled metal creatures. In this way, its subordinates will be decreasing, while our force will remain the same!"

"Hey, that's actually a good idea." Darren's eyes lit up excitedly. He hadn't thought of this before.

"Let's do this!" Darren proceeded to ask the Rule Soul Avatar and Yolanda to come out and together, they began to carry out the plan.

"Listen to me. Use all your strength to besiege the enemy's five thousand troops, and the rest should resist the attack of the enemy." Darren then ordered twenty thousand metal creatures to besiege their opponent's metal creatures and the rest of the metal creatures were ordered to stay on the defensive. The division of labor was clear.

These metal creatures obeyed immediately. Quickly, they found their positions and pressed back the metal creatures rushing in the front inwards.

After a short while, thousands of metal creatures of the opponent were trapped.

Without any hesitation, Darren and his companions used the previous method to remove the malicious aura from the bodies of these metal creatures and subdued them with the divine weapon of the Chu Clan.

Not long after, the thousands of metal creatures were under Darren's command.

However, the situation was not as good as they had expected. At least seven thousand metal creatures under his control had died, which was more than the number of metal creatures he had newly subdued. However, this didn't dampen their spirits. Darren still viewed it as advantageous.

After the successful first try, Darren immediately wanted to subdue the metal creatures for the second time.

However, the purple-gold metal creature seemed to have figured out what was going on. Rushing towards Darren and his companions as though it didn't give a damn what would happen to it, the purple gold metal creature was determined to break past Darren's protective circle.

"No, we can't let it break in," Darren said as he saw what was happening. "Master Murray, please stop it."
