Nobilis of War

Chapter 1197 Entering The Tussle Region

"These are the transmission tokens to the Tussle Region. As soon as you activate it, you will be

transferred there," the emissary explained as he handed Darren, Finley, and Aaron a wooden token

each.

"We can't trigger it just yet. We have to wait for them to come out," Finley said.

"Wait for them?" The emissary glanced at Finley and said, "It will take them at least ten years to survive

the tribulations. Even if you want to wait, the Region won't give you so much time. You need to go right

now. In ten years, regardless of whether they survive the tribulations or not, as long as you are alive, I

will bring them to you. I will never break my promise."

Both Finley and Aaron looked at Darren with questioning eyes.

"Let's go. The monkey and the old man are safe here. When they join us in a decade, we would have

grown, and it would be easier for us to protect them," Darren said.

"Okay, I'll tell the monkey." Finley flew to the exit and shouted, "Barnes, did you hear what we said?

Practice hard and try to survive the tribulations. And remember to take good care of that old man."

"I see. Go away now. I will meet you after I survive the tribulations successfully." Barnes didn't want to

be separated from Darren and the others, but he had no choice.

"Okay, take care of yourself! Bye!" Finley said with a wave.

Darren, Finley, and Aaron took a few steps forward and prepared to trigger the transmission token to

the Tussle Region.

"Wait! Someone is coming. You guys can go together." At this time, the emissary stopped them

unexpectedly.

"Who?"

"Me. Were you abandoning me? How heartless of you! Couldn't you think about taking me as well?"

Lindsay teased as she flew over.

"Who is she? Is she your friend?" Finley turned to Darren with furrowed brows and questioned.

"Yes, she is my friend." Darren nodded as he faced Lindsay. "How can you go to the Tussle Region

without participating in the test?"

Lindsay lifted her chin and cast a scornful glance at Darren. She raised the rusty iron plate in her hand

and remarked, "You forget that I have this. Now, stop talking nonsense. Let's go."

"Well."

Darren didn't say anything. Instead, he gestured to the others, and together, they triggered their

transmission tokens.

Gradually, Darren and his companions vanished.

A figure shrouded in darkness stepped forward as soon as Darren and his friends disappeared. The

emissary didn't even notice his presence!

"Listen to me. Send a message back immediately. Try your best to look after them. Don't apply rules to

them."

The startled emissary turned at once when he heard the voice.

"Ah, you... You are..." The emissary was so alarmed that he couldn't finish his sentence.

"Just do as I say," the man in black ordered impatiently.

"Yes, Mr. Feng." The emissary gulped and nodded as nervous energy flowed through him.

Whoosh!

A strange god's power whirled around the emissary's neck. "Remember! Don't call me by my name in

the future!"

"Yes, sir!" The emissary was so terrified that he broke into a cold sweat. A split second later, the man in

black disappeared.

After a while, Darren and his friends exited the space passage and landed in a boundless virgin forest.

"We reached so quickly," Finley muttered.

"Of course! Do you know how much a transmission token is worth? It is worth a level-six divine

weapon. Normally, only the warriors in the Celestial God Realm can have a transmission token at this

level.

Such a transmission token is precious, and can only be used by the new recruits that the different

regions select from the Ancestral Land every ten years. Since it is a long distance away, it will take

hundreds of years or longer to fly there."

Finley smiled faintly and turned to Darren. "Darren, I've been meaning to ask. Where is Elsa now?"

Darren's face darkened as he replied, "She is in the Blood Cloud Region."

"What happened?" Finley frowned. He couldn't think of a reason why Darren would leave her there.

"It's a long story. We can talk about it later," Darren said calmly.

"Why don't you bring her back since you know where she is?" Finley persisted.

"I have too many crises to face. If Elsa accompanies me, she will be in great danger."

"Darren, the way you think is not right. You're a bit of an idiot about this." Finley glared at Darren before

he continued, "All you think about is keeping her from danger. Are you certain that she will be safe if

she stays in the Blood Cloud Region alone? What's more, as you are not with her now, she must be

very worried. That is even worse for her. You are so stupid."

Finley's words pierced Darren's heart like needles.

"Yes, I'm stupid!" Darren muttered when he realized the folly in his actions. He should find Elsa.

Otherwise, she would continue to worry about him. Besides, Darren didn't know whether she was safe

or not.

The more he thought about her, the more upset he got.

"We can't focus on this now. It's too late. We have just entered the Tussle Region, and we have to fight

to the core to reach the requirement before we can exit. Only after that will it be possible to leave and

find Elsa," Finley said.

"Yeah, it's useless for you to worry now. You have to reach a certain level first," Lindsay echoed

Finley's advice.

Meanwhile, she used her spiritual sense to message Finley, "Hey, who is Elsa?"

"Don't you know? She is Darren's wife," Finley replied through his spiritual sense.

"What? He has a wife?" Lindsay sighed.

"Yeah, are you jealous?" Finley bantered.

"No way! He's not worthy enough to deserve my attention. So why would I be jealous?" Lindsay

remarked coldly.

After a while, Darren adjusted his mood and led the team forward in the forest.

However, it took them a while to realize that the emissary had transferred them to the Tussle Region,

but he hadn't shared any rules, nor had he informed them about what they needed to do.

"He didn't tell us anything. It is highly unexpected," Lindsay muttered. "By the way, my token hasn't

disappeared after it was used. What about you?"

"Mine has turned to dust."

"So has mine."

"I have lost my token as well," Aaron said.

Except for Lindsay, Darren and his two companions' transmission tokens disappeared at the same

time. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

"Ha-ha, I get it." Lindsay released her god's sense and let it enter her token.

Almost immediately, a rune flashed on the token, and a message automatically came to her mind.

"Just as I thought. The rules are here." After receiving all the rules, the token in Lindsay's hand also

turned to dust.

"Tell us the rules," Finley said.

"No. Just follow me." Lindsay curled her lips and strode forward.

Darren and others glared at her, but they followed obediently.

After three days of walking in the forest, they saw no signs of life—not even the chirping of insects or

birds.

"Lindsay, are we just wandering around?"

Over these past three days, Darren and Finley had asked Lindsay about the rules she had received

many times, but she didn't tell them.

"Don't worry. Just follow me!" Lindsay declared confidently.

"Hey, girl, I don't like your behavior. Don't waste our time anymore! Otherwise, I won't spare you."

Finley jumped forward and blocked her way.

"Just you?" Lindsay tittered.

"Damn it! Are you underestimating me?" Displeasure and resentment reflected in Finley's expression

as he rolled up his sleeves. "If it weren't for your ugly appearance, I would have raped you and then

killed you."
