The Invisible Mogul novel Chapter 1660

Appearing rather distressed as she stared at Gerald, Nori felt the need to remind him that in the end, both of them had already entered the Sage Realm.

Hearing that, Gerald felt that she had a point. With that, he then replied, “…Well, alright then! Let’s take the initiative to attack then! The sooner we gather the required divine stones, the sooner we’ll be able to complete the challenge!”

With that said, both of them then hopped off the tree together…

However, the second the duo landed, several arrows suddenly shot out at them from within the bushes!

Thankfully, both of them reacted extremely quickly, and they were able to easily dodge the arrows. The arrows themselves ended up piercing a few trees that were behind them…

Following that, three people wielding crossbows rushed out from the bushes, encircling Gerald and Nori in no time!

“To think that we’d bump into prey so soon! What luck, boss!” said a bald man as he smiled sinisterly while looking at the scar-faced man standing beside him.

The trio had earlier been silently moving about when they suddenly saw Gerald and Nori hopping off from that tree. Knowing that this was their chance, all of them had swiftly made their moves without the slightest hesitation.

“Luck you say… In the end, there’s still only two of them! How are we going to distribute the divine stones among ourselves?” replied the scar-faced man with a snort as he revealed his own frigid smile.

“I know right? Both of us won’t have that problem, however! After all, by the time we’re done with you, we’ll have three divine stones to share between ourselves!” replied Gerald as he smiled slyly.

Before either of the men could reply, an aurablade suddenly manifested, and just like that, all three of them were taken out in a single swipe!

There was a saying stating ‘not accepting offered things was disgraceful’, and since those three men were making themselves such easy pickings, Gerald would’ve certainly been a fool not to take them out while he could.

Regardless, Nori and Gerald then continued moving forward to look for their next prey.

Oddly enough, even after walking around for an entire hour, neither of them bumped into a single person! It was strange, to say the least, and the possibility of everyone else already being defeated didn’t sound so farfetched now…

Even so, the challenge had just started… What more, there were at least a thousand participants! The challenge couldn’t be over so soon, right…?

A little while later, the duo came across a river. It was only then when they finally decided to take a break from their hunt…
