This was wild arrogance that knew no bounds!

It was so wildly arrogant that no one could understand anymore.

If Maxwell was a madman in the beginning, he was now considered a complete and utterly raving mad lunatic who was an existence who didn't give a shit about his own life.

After being called out by name for a duel, Godfrey coldly sneered while stepping out. He then leapt up into the air and landed heavily on the ground. The momentum he exuded was similar to flames as he angrily said, "I really didn't expect you to choose me for a one-on-one fight. Are you just really dumb, or do you not have any brains to begin with?"

"But this is good too. The enmity of my son should be avenged by me personally."

As he was saying these words, Godfrey's rage increased little by little, filled with pure hatred.

Maxwell stood motionless in place as he was crushed by the aura Godfrey was releasing. He then said with an uncomfortable feeling: "Your son killed others, so I killed your son. All the Emporium Academy members were personally killed by me, so it has nothing to do with others; I shall shoulder all the responsibilities."

"I'm sure everyone here is aware that your level exceeds mine by a huge amount."

"The reason I called your name out for a duel is very simple: No matter what the outcome of this battle is, I'm hoping that you can let the Gillette Household and the common people of Eden City off. They are all innocent and have nothing to do with this."

Godfrey coldly smirked as he said, "Maxwell, you want to sacrifice yourself to protect the others? I'll directly tell you that everyone from your Household and Eden City will accompany my son in his burial."

If the entire Eden City doesn't perish, the rage in his heart will never be extinguished!

However, Maxwell wasn't even looking at Godfrey as he said those words, and was actually looking at Lucas. He then coldly glanced at Godfrey and sneered: "Don't inflate your own importance because your words cannot represent the Emporium Academy!"

Godfrey's expression became rather ugly at this time.

Lucas faintly smiled and said, "You've killed so many of our members that the reputation of our Academy has been damaged by you. Do you think your death alone can restore our reputation?"

Maxwell started talking to himself in disdain: "What sort of reputation does a crappy Academy like yours have?"

There was a smile on Maxwell's face as he asked: "Then what are your intentions?"

Lucas replied: "My intentions are very simple: If you lose, everyone in Eden City will have to die with you. If you win, then everything gets a clean slate."

Maxwell immediately said, "Good, we'll do it according to your words!"

Lucas was startled by this as he never imagined Maxwell would agree so candidly.

One needs to understand that his opponent was Godfrey, an expert at the peak of Gold rank. The difference in strength between the two was like a distance of two continents apart, so how could Maxwell match up to Godfrey?

Could the item on him be powerful enough to kill Godfrey?

Banner was also shocked by this.

The moment Maxwell directly resisted Augustus's attack, those two guessed that Maxwell must have some kind of magical protective treasure. And the grade of this magical treasure shouldn't be low at all.

At this moment, greed arose in their hearts!

A magical protective treasure; this type of item was rare in the Academy as well.

If the magical treasure was of high grade... Lucas started revealing an evil smile.

After clearing his throat, Lucas looked at Godfrey and asked, "Duke Godfrey, what do you think about this?"

Godfrey respectfully replied: "Duke Lucas, rest assured that I will kill him and certainly massacre the entire city!"

Lucas lightly smiled, "That's good then, I hope that you don't let me down."

Lucas had alternative plans in his mind: "If the protective magical treasure can't even resist Godfrey's strength, then it would be useless to me and the kid's death will serve our purpose. If the kid manages to win, then the magical treasure on him must be something incredible..."

Of course, Banner, off to the side, was also thinking the same thing!

The crowd started spreading out to make room for those two.

Maxwell looked over at Godfrey, who was about a dozen meters away from him.

Godfrey's voice, which was filled with rage, arrogance, and disdain, said: "This time, I will not give you a chance to continue living!"

"I will shatter your soul so that you can't even become a ghost!"

Maxwell smiled and scoffed in disdain: "Shhh, I'm a person who loves doing good deeds. Your son is waiting in hell for you, so I'll let you two reunite there."

At this moment, Maxwell had a thought as he said, "Dracula, I'm going to borrow you for a bit."

Dracula was awestruck by Maxwell's wild arrogance. He started laughing like mad as he loudly said: "You brat, you are truly wild and unrestrained! Too spirited! I'm starting to like you more and more, hahaha..."

Although Dracula was at the critical time of his recovery, he didn't want to be left out of such a huge scene. "Hey brat, you are crazy enough. Even when facing such a powerful enemy, you're still so wildly arrogant. Not bad, not bad at all. The heavens haven't sent the wrong person to me, hahaha..."

Maxwell said in his mind, "Enough of the bullshit, are you lending yourself to me or not?"

Dracula replied: "Of course I'll lend it, how can I be missing in such a huge scene? But little brat, you are facing a Duke from the Emporium Academy, someone at the peak of Gold rank. His strength is much, much higher than Charlie's, so you need to think this through carefully! This old life of mine can still handle it, so if you require it..."

Maxwell was secretly grateful and said, "There's no need for you to act; I have my own plans."

Dracula had already exhausted his energy, so forcing him to use it again, most likely, he would really disappear. Dracula would cease to exist, and his blade would then become a dead blade without a controller and be completely useless.

Maxwell would never endanger Dracula's life like that.

"You brat, don't overthink things. I'm just afraid that if you died, I would follow your footsteps and disappear as well. I'm solely doing this for myself." Said Dracula, who was resorting to sophistry. It then recalled not long ago when Maxwell was buried in rubble, an ice-cold voice was transmitted into his mind, so he asked: "What was that ice-cold voice talking to you about?"

Maxwell replied: "You'll see!"

Dracula was starting to look forward to it!

Immediately after, there was movement inside Maxwell, and Dracula disappeared.

Right after that, a huge blade covered in blood was now floating inside Maxwell's mind. The Vampire Blade then started moving according to his will.

With just a thought, the Vampire Blade appeared in Maxwell's right hand. The long blade was touching the ground while emitting a ghastly killing intent as if it was dripping blood.

It was a very strong and very thick killing intent.

The resonance between the killing intent from the blade and the beast core inside Maxwell's sea of consciousness was just enough to resist the oppressive pressure from Godfrey.

Once the Vampire Blade appeared, nearly everyone from the Emporium Academy had an expression of horror on their faces!

"What a violent blade!"

"The killing intent is very strong; it's almost like this blade was born from the depths of hell."

"The grade is also extremely high; the blade is just too handsome!"

The pupils of Lucas and Banner slightly shrank as their eyes narrowed. They were both staring at Maxwell and saying to themselves: "I didn't expect this kid to possess such a good blade on him!"

The greed in their hearts started getting stronger!

Inadvertently, those two glanced at each other and both revealed a cold smile filled with a trace of greed.

Regardless of the outcome of this battle, they were still going to devour Maxwell whole!

Godfrey was indeed a dangerous person.

But, the danger he represented was not even 0.001% of Lucas and Banner!

Danger was everywhere, and killing intent was hidden all around!
