Nobilis of War

Suddenly, Lindsay understood what Darren meant.

Wilson had said that the evil spirit could conceal itself in people's bodies, but it could not read their memories. If she was unable to answer Darren's question, that would mean that she was the evil spirit.

"How dare you doubt me?! I should have cut you into pieces so that Jeremy could have had a nice meal," Lindsay growled angrily.

Hearing this, Darren knew that he didn't need to ask about anything else. She said something that only the real Lindsay would know about.

"Haha! Don't be angry. Let me ask them one by one," Darren said, smiling sheepishly.

"You're such an idiot! I don't want to see you. Leave me alone."

Darren shook his head helplessly. He looked at Jefferson next to him. "Jefferson, you have known Wilson for several years. Why don't you ask him a few questions?"

"Very well, sir," Jefferson said as he walked up to Wilson.

"Wilson, do you still remember who defeated you and let you join our forces back then?" Jefferson was referring to the time when the eighteen forces of the forest were built.

"Of course I remember. At that time, it was Burke who suppressed me and threatened me to become his subordinate."

"That's right. Do you remember that I once killed a good friend of yours? What was his name?" Jefferson asked indifferently.

Wilson frowned and went silent.

All eyes were on Wilson.

"Wilson, answer. If you don't, I'm afraid we will have no other choice but to kill you," Finley said coldly.

Tensions rose as Wilson continued to stay silent. However, at the last minute, his face broke into a grin. "Jefferson, you're fooling me, right? I have a lot of friends, but no good friends. Let me make it clear to you. The man you killed-he does not exist."

"Yes, good!" Jefferson said and nodded his head. Everyone around them let out sighs of relief. Wilson had gotten the answer correctly. It seemed that Wilson wasn't the evil spirit. Darren turned around and looked at Finley.

"I met you when you entered the Ancient Void Battlefield. At that time, you were as weak as a little chicken." Finley smiled.

Darren was speechless. Who on earth was the evil spirit hiding in?

"Aaron, do you remember where you met me?" Darren turned around and asked.

"Yes, I remember." Aaron nodded vigorously.

"I'm glad to hear that. I accidentally broke in the forbidden area of the Dragon Holy Land, but you saved my life. Thank you. I would never suspect you." Darren's eyes were soft and watery. "Yes, I know you wouldn't doubt me. Darren, they seemed to be so fierce. I was terrified." Aaron gripped Darren more tightly, his tone morose and regretful.

Boom!

A powerful force burst out and blew Aaron away!

It was Darren who did this.

Aaron's answer was wrong. The two had met each other in a domain left by the Dark Emperor in the Raksa Sea.

"Show yourself! Stop hiding, you coward!" Darren shouted coldly.

"Ha-ha... You found me!" Aaron screamed.

"What? It is really true that Aaron's body has been possessed by the evil spirit?!" Finley's face paled.

"I almost fooled all of you! You idiots! Now, get out of here, or I'll swallow the child's soul." The evil spirit was unafraid. He could sense that the group's leader cared about the child. They would not do anything rash to hurt him.

"Not a chance. Evil spirit, you have assimilated five souls in a row, and now you must become very weak. You won't be able to escape," Wilson shouted coldly.

"Oh, you are right. But if I must die, I will drag this child's soul down with me!" As soon as he finished speaking, purple fog rose up and billowed from Aaron's body. "Wait!" Darren called out. "I promise you that you can leave safely. Do not hurt Aaron."

"Really? You're afraid now, aren't you?" the evil spirit cackled.

"I don't care about my followers that much. If you let go of Aaron, you can have anyone you want. We can be friends. What do you think?" Darren asked.

Of course, Darren's followers knew that he was bluffing. Darren valued friendship immensely, and he was doing this to coax the evil spirit out of Aaron.

"Humans are good at lying. Do you think I will fall for your tricks? Don't be so naive!" The evil spirit was not stupid. If he came out of the kid's body, he would definitely be slaughtered by the others.

"Ah, well. I cannot do anything if you don't believe me. I don't think this is worth losing your life over. Your best bet is to believe me," Darren said coldly.

"Human, I don't think you would dare to kill me. If I die, the child dies. You know that," the evil spirit said. He prepared to leave once again.

Whoosh!

With Aaron's body, the evil spirit soared into the air and tried to escape.

Knowing that Finley would chase after the evil spirit, Darren stopped him.

"Don't chase after him. Aaron will be in danger. Wilson mentioned that the swamp has an owner. If he really exists, that means that the evil spirit just broke the flying taboo, and he will be captured by the swamp owner. We need to find the swamp owner as soon as possible!" Darren said.

"That makes sense. Hurry up. Let's go!" Wilson said, nodding.

Finley also suppressed the impulse in his heart, and the group, led by Wilson, rushed forward quickly.

A couple of hours later, the group found themselves at the entrance of a red forest.

"The owner of the swamp lives here. You just need to bow and show him some respect. When you shout out the word 'please', he will appear," Wilson said.

Darren didn't hesitate. He bowed and said loudly, "Sir, please! I'm Darren Chu. I want to walk past the swamp. Please allow me!"

"Get out."

A hostile voice rang out through everyone's mind.

"Sir, I want to ask you a favor. Could you please let go of the boy with the black eyes? He is my brother," Darren pleaded.

"Your brother? Are you kidding me?" The man laughed. "You are just a little Defiant Master. You'll never have such a brother." Hearing this, Darren was stunned.

"Sir, he is my sworn brother. Please let me take care of him. I will be greatly indebted to you," Darren said sincerely.

"Get out of my sight now, or I will be very upset and withdraw my hospitality!"

"Sir! As a great warrior, aren't you ashamed of bullying a child?" Darren asked.

"You ungrateful little bastard! I've told you to get out. You've made me angry. Let's see just how strong you are!"

Crack!

A lightning chain appeared in front of Darren.

Bang!

The strike from the lightning chain numbed Darren, and he felt a sharp pain in his meridians. The lightning chain also attempted to attack his soul, and this greatly terrified Darren. He subconsciously activated the God Character in his brain.

Darren's God Character linked with the lightning chain and went with it as it wrapped around Darren's body.

Crack, crack!

Under the effect of Darren's God Character, the lightning chain dissolved into nothingness.

"What? I can't believe this!"

A roar shook the earth as Darren freed himself from the lightning chain.0000☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
