《Night Ranger》Chapter 580. Black Knight's Trail
Advertisement
Unlike [Rebirth], this page of the Book of Nalu didn't seem to have developed any consciousness.
For a fragment of the Book of Nalu, [Reincarnation] didn't show anything special.
Even after looking at it carefully, it was still an ordinary page.
Marvin mumbled for a bit before piling the two pages together.
A strange attractive force appeared between the two pages before a faint yellow light flickered and the two pages melded perfectly.
After the fusion of the pages, a book-like item was now in Marvin's hands.
The two pages of the Book of Nalu now actually looked like a book.
Apart from the fact that there were only two pages, making it look a bit ridiculous, it still started to seem more like an Artifact.
The cover was made out of a very hard material, with two words written on it in the Ancient God Language.
Although Marvin didn't understand, he knew that this should be the true form of the Book of Nalu.
He had the 6th and 11th pages with him, and he knew the location of three other pages!
The 1st page was in the treasury of the Night Walkers. He had found it back when he was picking up his advancement manual. The 3rd page, Destruction, had been in Hathaway's hands. After she was imprisoned by Dark Phoenix, that page had remained in the Three Ring Towers. If not for the fact that the Three Ring Towers were definitely teeming with monsters, Marvin would have already taken it. And there was still the 2nd Page, Prosperity.
That page's owner was the Overlord of the Sunrise Island in the Pambo Sea, Black Knight Sangore!
Sangore was the founder of the Black Knight Monastery. He himself had been a Legend Knight for many years, and although he had been defeated by the Cloud Monk, his strength couldn't be underestimated.

Marvin felt that the Book of Nalu's warning was most likely true. He had to prepare carefully for the potential confrontation.
He opened the Book of Nalu again.
This time, because its consciousness was already under Marvin's control, the Book of Nalu was completely unable to resist.
Faced with Marvin's questions, it could only spill everything it knew.
After a few minutes, Marvin closed the Book of Nalu, displaying a pondering expression.
...
According to the Book of Nalu, the earlier reaction really was because of the [Prosperity] page.
Moreover, because [Rebirth] had gained sentience, and because of the fusion with [Reincarnation], his Book of Nalu was more complete and thus had an advantage.
At this moment, Black Knight Sangore likely hadn't found Marvin yet, but Marvin had already found him.
Even better was that after the fusion, the Book of Nalu's ability strengthened and could now point toward [Prosperity]'s location.
'That direction… It's definitely [Devil Town]'s entrance!'
'Sangore has been secretly trying to gather the Book of Nalu. Could it be that there is something he needs in Devil Town's surroundings?'
Marvin frowned.
Devil Town was a strange city in the southern part of the Arachnee Tribe's lands.
That place was close to being the southernmost part of the Underdark.
It was rumored that the entrance of the Bloody Emperor's Tomb was hidden in a corner Devil Town.
But to enter Devil Town, you needed a key.
That key had always been in the hands of the Arachnee.
Because the Arachnee Tribe consisted of descendants of the Emperor's followers!
They followed their ancestors' teachings and guarded the Bloody Emperor's tomb all this time.
Anyone wanting to enter Devil Town would be stopped by them.
This Arachnee tribe was actually not very powerful. The reason the Devil Town had been peaceful for so many years mainly relied on the fact that it was a natural stronghold. Whether one wanted to get past the Styx or the Rotten Mushroom Swamp, it would be very difficult.

But that wouldn't be that much of an issue for a very powerful expert.
Who knew what methods Black Knight Sangore used to reach Devil Town's entrance.
Had he already gotten the key?
Marvin's heart sank at the thought.
After Sangore lost to the Cloud Monk, he would have wanted revenge. It made sense that he would target Sodom's Blades!
With Sodom's Blades, his strength would increase explosively.
Although he still likely wouldn't be the Cloud Monk's opponent, he would be able to arrogantly look down on Feinan's powerhouses.
'Can't let that guy get Sodom's Blades first!'
Marvin put away the Book of Nalu and went on his way!
...
More and more crushed rocks appeared on the ground as Marvin went deeper into the mountainous area.
His path was littered with ghastly corpses!
All the Arachnees he saw had died tragically, not one left alive.
Marvin examined them and determined that Black Knight Sangore wasn't alone.
There were at least four people!
One of them should be Sangore, wielding a spear. A good amount of the Arachnees had been pierced through the chest.
The second one should be a rogue, using daggers like Marvin did.
The 3rd one was definitely a caster, because there were still clear traces of Magic lingering. But what kind of caster that person was, Marvin couldn't tell.
For a group of Legends, dealing with one Arachnee tribe would have been far too easy.
They didn't have to go all-out.
'The 4th… should be a Thief. He didn't act, but he left a few footprints on the path.'
'Definitely an expert… But it shouldn't be a combat-focused Thief. Probably a [Temple Raider] or [Gold Thief]!'
Marvin quickly analyzed the strength of his enemies.
A team of four Legends... The situation had become a bit tricky.
But for Marvin right now, the good news was they probably didn't know of his existence.
He could hide in some secret place and look for an opportunity!
He proceeded a bit further before hearing a howl!
'There are people?!'
Marvin approached quickly in Stealth.
The sound came from the depths of a cave.
Marvin rushed in without any hesitation.
The cave was a standard Arachnee cave, but there were Arachnee Fighters lying on the ground.
They had all been decapitated.
'An effective method.' Marvin was even more careful.
He walked over and ended up in a hall, before finally spotting two living people!
He saw an old Arachnee suspended in midair, all of his legs bound in a rope.
Standing in front of him was a tall and thin man.
He was carrying two blades on his back and holding a bloody dagger in his hand as he scraped off the old Arachnee's flesh.
"Tell me, where is the key?"
"Now, now. Boss can't wait, so I don't mind peeling off all your skin to appease him," the man threatened unpleasantly.
Marvin frowned from the shadows.
'It's actually a Leader of the Crimson Road!"
