Chapter 40: Confrontation

Copperfield looked at Nameless beside him. The soul power fluctuation of Nameless was still at the peak of two-star. However, after Copperfield absorbed the power of the Flame Crystal, Nameless’s body had also undergone a significant change, his strength should have also increased by quite a bit.

Under Copperfield’s signal, Nameless walked towards Watt’s base.

At this moment, Watt noticed the sound of horse hooves coming from not far away.

Under his signal, the personal guards beside him all summoned their souls and got ready for battle.

The person who appeared in the Magical Beasts Mountain Range at this time was definitely not someone good. After all, his team also had not seen many magical beasts along the way.

Due to the pressure of the thunderclouds above their heads, most of the magical beasts had chosen to hibernate.

The sound of armor scraping against the ground was getting closer and closer.

Under the moonlight, Watt and the others saw the true appearance of Nameless.

“Who is it?”

A personal guard beside Watt shouted nervously.

It was because the aura of death emitting from the body of Nameless was too strange.

None of the soul masters present had ever seen that terrifying soul power fluctuation.

After seeing the appearance of the person, Watt was slightly disappointed. It was actually not Copperfield. At this period of time, there were actually humans other than Copperfield in the mountain range, causing him to be slightly shocked.

However, it was only a shock. Although the aura emitted by the person in front of him was extremely strange, looking at the soul power fluctuation, he was merely a peak two-star soul master. To Watt, he presented no threat at all.

At this moment, Copperfield, who was hiding in the dark, finally confirmed that the group in front of him was from the Cavendish family. The insignia on his sleeves revealed the identities of Watt and the others.

There were around 20 people in front of him. Almost all of them were two-star. Copperfield could not confirm the cultivation of the man sitting in the leader’s seat. However, from the looks of it, he was at least a peak three-star master.

Copperfield was not in a hurry to show himself. The man sitting in the leader’s seat did not intend to make a move when he saw Nameless. Copperfield also would not make a move unless he was sure about the leader’s strength.

‘Since I’m sure that he’s a member of Cavendish clan…’, Copperfield thought.

Nameless slowly brandished his battle axe.

After Watt had confirmed the power of Nameless, he no longer cared about him. Although it was not Copperfield, the aura of the knight in front of him was still very strange. If he could get any secrets from him, it would probably be a great contribution toward capturing Copperfield. He would just let his subordinates capture him.

He waved his hand, and the personal guard beside him immediately understood, his gaze towards Nameless turning unfriendly.

Even if the aura emitted by this knight was like a devil from Hell, Lord Watt himself possessed the strength of a four-star mid-tier master!

With Lord Watt around, there was nothing to be afraid of.

With this thought in mind, more than ten personal guards slowly surrounded the knight in front of them.

From the beginning until the end, this strange knight in front of them had not said a single word. However, when they really got close, they discovered the terrifying soul power undulations from the knight’s body.

When Nameless was summoned by Copperfield for the first time, his aura had already reached the peak of two-star. At that time, Copperfield had only just stepped into two-star power. Now, as a summoner, Copperfield had already stepped into the peak of two-star power. Naturally, the strength of Nameless had also increased. However, due to the addition of Copperfield’s power, with his soul power stopping at the peak of two-star, the strength of Nameless was definitely not something that an ordinary peak two-star soul master could achieve.

Although Nameless was standing alone in front of so many Cavendish Family members, not a single one of them dared to make the first move.

It was as though everyone had felt a warning in their hearts, that the person who made the first move would definitely die!

Seeing everyone dawdling, Watt felt somewhat frustrated.

Wasn’t the other party only a two-star high-tier soul master?

The strength of the opponent was only around two-star, what was there to be afraid of when more than ten of them were fighting against one?

“Hurry up and attack! What are you waiting for?”

Finally, under Watt’s furious rebuke, everyone forcefully suppressed the fear in their hearts. They looked at each other, and in an instant, they all attacked in unison.

Dozens of soul attacks of different types flew toward Nameless.

Nameless, who had been maintaining his battle stance, finally moved.

A wave of soul power undulations filled with death aura instantly spread out. Black smoke rose into the air as everyone raised their hands in an attempt to dispel the black fog that was obstructing their vision.

Before the black fog dispersed, Nameless instantly appeared behind one of the two-star mid-tier soul masters.

He still didn’t have any flashy skills to use in combat.

Without warning, his massive battle axe instantly dropped onto the soul master.

A two-star mid-tier soul master had been killed on the spot in less than 10 seconds!
