Nobilis of War novel Chapter 1175

"I have a question ready: the fiend king said earlier that I was the natural enemy of all the chief gods. What does that mean?" Darren asked, sitting back on the ground and looking up at Carlisle with curious eyes.

The other four people joined him because they also knew little about the chief gods. Carlisle smiled since he knew a lot.

"The chief gods are the real overlords of the Primitive Wilderness. They are the most powerful beings in the world. However, unfortunate for us, none of the nine chief gods belong to the human race.

The Primitive Wilderness is perfectly divided into sections, which are the nine abysses and ten hells. Each of the nine chief gods is in charge of one abyss and one hell and controls all the creatures in it," Carlisle explained.

"But wait. There's still one more hell, right?" Darren let several possible explanations swim through his head. If there were a total of ten hells, one was left unattended.

"Yes. That one is called the Chaotic Hell. The Chaotic Land where we are going to belongs to the Chaotic Hell.

The Chaotic Hell has been left unattended for ninety million years. No one dares to take charge of it," said Carlisle.

"Why is that, sir?" one of the other four men asked. Darren closed his mouth, as he was about to ask that same question.

"That is a long story but I will shorten it the best that I can. Once there was a Defiant Master that killed the tenth chief god while he was still growing and took over the tenth hell. However, since he was a threat to the other chief gods, they killed him.

After he died, his soul stayed in place, still guarding the tenth hell. For some reason, even the chief gods dare not step there again, so it has become a land of chaos, a place for all kinds of criminals to take refuge.

Moreover, it is said that the powerful Defiant Master was a human!"

Darren's heart thumped so hard with excitement when he heard this that he nearly leapt to his feet. The chief gods were terrified of a human!

The other four people exchanged large smiles of hope as excitement also filled their hearts.

"Of course, this is just a legend. No one knows exactly what happened," Carlisle added.

"So that means that a Defiant Master is the natural enemy of the chief gods. Why is that?" Darren asked, partially wondering why he had become a Defiant Master himself.

"It's too complicated to explain to you. I can only tell you that when you become a Defiant Master, you gain the chance to become a deputy god, and every deputy god has the qualifications to compete for the position of the chief god. You are a threat to the existing chief gods. So when they find a Defiant Master, they kill them to protect themselves down the line."

Darren nodded silently, understanding why they hated people like him so much.

"It seems that my identity is very unusual here and I am destined to achieve something in the Primitive Wilderness," Darren said, slumping his shoulders slightly.

"Master, that is not a bad thing. It's great that you are unusual here. In the Primitive Wilderness, if you remain humble, then you achieve nothing!" Carlisle was thrilled, while the other four all looked gloomy. It was terrible for ordinary people to stay in the Primitive Wilderness. There was a chance none of them would make it out alive.

"Sir, I think your strength is at least at the middle-level of the Star God Realm. That means that you are already very powerful in the Primitive Wilderness," Darren said to Carlisle.

"Ha-ha." A wry smile tugged at the corner of Carlisle's mouth. He then replied, "Being at the Star God Realm is nothing special in the Primitive Wilderness. I'm just a nobody."

"But that makes no sense. I watched you kill the fiend emperor in seconds. You are very strong," Darren complimented, feeling smaller by the second.

"Oh, he was not even qualified to be a fiend emperor. The real top-level fiend emperors are comparable to warriors at the Celestial God Realm. Besides, there are many above the fiend emperors like the superior fiends and the fiend gods. They are the real powerful creatures of the Primitive Wilderness.

In addition to the fiend race, there are a number of other races, including the Shura race, the Dark Night race, and the Blood Demon race… It's really quite frightening. All these races are far more powerful than us humans are."

Darren's face darkened. What hope would there be for them if that was the case? Still, he continued asking questions. "So they have more talent than the human race then? Why are there so many strong warriors of those races?"

"It has nothing to do with talent. The other races are born with a growth speed far beyond that of the human race.

For example, a descendant of a superior fiend is likely to be born to a fiend emperor and become a superior fiend when he grows up. But for humans, even for the descendants of the warriors of the Superior God Realm, they can be more talented than others and still be humans forever. This is the difference."

Darren nodded in understanding. These other races were born above the humans. They didn't have to even put in much work for power.

"Oh no," Darren replied, sighing. "If you are weak, you will be beaten. No wonder those races all regard humans as their slaves."

"It's all the fault of the so-called senior leaders of the human race. They could all take action and change their situation! But no. They always act weak. That's why the human race is bullied and taken advantage of." For a moment, hatred filled Carlisle's eyes.

Several years ago, he had killed a handful of low-class fiend emperors in order to protect his wife, and then he fled to the Ancestral Land for shelter.

However, against his expectations, the higher ups of the Ancestral Land didn't provide him any protection. Instead, they captured him and shipped him back to the fiend race for trial. They murdered his wife on the spot to punish him.

From that moment on, Carlisle had made the seniors of the human race one of his biggest enemies.

"Please calm down, sir. I will avenge you one day!" Darren could also feel his blood beginning to boil.

"Yes, we will avenge you!"

"Right! We can kick those bastards out of the human race and let Darren be the leader. Everything would be different under Darren's leadership," one of them said.

Carlisle inhaled deeply and relaxed his tense shoulder. "Don't be foolish. Fools get distracted. Our current goal is to survive and to become stronger."

"I agree," someone said awkwardly.

"Oh, I almost forgot! Before I entered the Primitive Wilderness, I was taken as a disciple by the Lord Starry Sword. We can temporarily go to the Starry Sword Region and stay there for a few days, and then we can plan how we will infiltrate the Chaotic Land. What do you think?" Darren offered.

The other four didn't respond, while the face of Carlisle darkened.

"That will never work. Now that you are a Defiant Master, no one in this world will dare to take you in, even the Lord Starry Sword."

Darren frowned, feeling like they were running out of options.

"What about the Chu Clan? Do you know anything about it?" Darren had also passed the test of the Chu Clan, and that meant he was qualified to be a disciple of the Chu Clan.

"The Chu Clan? Never heard of it," Carlisle said. It surprised Darren. Didn't the Chu Clan have a reputation in the Primitive Wilderness?

Darren slowly lowered himself back onto the ground and asked no more questions. It appeared that Carlisle wouldn't have all the answers he needed after all.

"Then where do you think we should go now?" Darren asked. This cave would not provide them the shelter they needed.

Carlisle closed his eyes and thought for a moment. When he opened them, he said, "We will travel to the fiend race's territory."

Everyone's jaws dropped. They were wanted among the fiend race. Why would they go straight into their grasp when it was the fiend race that they were trying to avoid?

"Why would we do that?" Darren knew that Carlisle was too smart, and there must be a good reason behind it.

"We are going to go to the villages of the fiend race, not the territory of the senior leaders of the fiend race.

In those villages, there's only underclass of the fiend race there, which we can defeat. If we can occupy a village once we arrive, there is little chance that the upper class will ever find out about it. It is, in reality, much safer than fleeing outside," Carlisle explained.
