Night Ranger - Chapter 592
Chapter 592: Battle for the Blades! [2]
Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation
The crimson blades kept ripping through the void, creating many void fragments.
If Marvin didn’t dodge well enough, even if he wasn’t cut down by the blade, he would be torn apart by the fragments.
Marvin calmly reacted at the crucial moment.
Under the rain of attacks from the withered corpse, a dazzling light burst out of his body.
Shapeshift Sorcerer – Diamond Shape!
Eight seconds of extremely high resistance to physical attacks!
A shiny layer of light covered his body. If not for his clothes being more suitable for a rogue, he would have looked like a Monk using [Unbreakable Diamond]!
“Crash!”
Countless void fragments hit Marvin’s body, but they only seemed like a spring breeze blowing on the surface of a peaceful lake. Besides faint ripples, there was nothing else.
Marvin’s hands moved like lightning, grabbing at the corpse!
He had waited patiently while coming up with a countermeasure against the Spirit. Now he burst out at this moment!
[Edge Snatch]!
His right hand grabbed the corpse’s withered wrist and used the skill learned from the Elven Prince!
[Edge Snatch used…]
[Skill check…]
[Edge Snatch failed!]
The wrist pulled away from Marvin’s hand and the blade struck at him again, going straight for Marvin’s neck!
Marvin frowned. Despite Diamond Shape being active, it wasn’t the true Unbreakable Diamond skill!
If those frightening daggers really cut his body, he would still be hurt.
Shadow Escape!
His silhouette suddenly disappeared before reappearing, dodging this blade in this moment of life and death.
Then, his thrust his hands out once again!
[Edge Snatch]!
The first time didn’t work, so he would try it again.
This was Marvin’s only hope for victory!
This time, perhaps because he added an extra movement, Marvin managed to get some results.
His left hand grabbed the back of the corpse’s hand, and his right foot struck suddenly from an extremely crafty angle!
“Bam!”
Marvin’s right leg hit the left arm of the corpse!
There was a crisp sound, and although that arm hadn’t been fractured, it went slightly limp for a moment.
‘Now!’
[Edge Snatch successful!]
The scarlet dagger immediately landed in Marvin’s hand.
A powerful force rushed through his mind, making him feel like he was about to explode!
A crazy voice echoed in his mind, ‘You dare covet my legacy?!’
‘I’ll dismember you into thousands of pieces!’
‘You can become my slave, and fall into eternal oblivion!’
Marvin inwardly sneered and answered, ‘I’m afraid not, Your Majesty.’
‘The former you might have been able to, but right now, you don’t have that kind of ability.’
‘You are just a poor Evil Spirit hiding in your old blades. You aren’t even a true Spirit. What meaning is there to use this kind of method to keep a part of your consciousness?’
And Marvin didn’t stay idle while they talked.
He also launched his counterattack.
Diamond Shape was soon going to disappear. He wanted to use this time land the final blow on that corpse!
Another Edge Snatch!
After losing one of the daggers, the corpse’s movement slowed greatly. It didn’t even seem to be at the Godly Dexterity boundary anymore.
Marvin went all-out, and after using Edge Snatch twice in a row, he managed to grab the other dagger!
That violently powerful force once again rushed through his chest, his brain, and every corner of his body!
It seemed almost like he was about to be swallowed by that power!
But Marvin still kept his wits about him.
He coldly watched the corpse.
It was only standing there, stiff and motionless.
“Rumble…” An unpleasant sound came out of its throat.
The next moment, the body began to dry up very quickly.
Without the power of Sodom’s Blades to support it, this corpse was no different from other corpses!
Crash!
Ultimately, it turned into a pile of bones, scattering among the rest of the bones in the area.
Marvin sighed in relief.
He really made the correct decision.
With how the Bloody Emperor was, how could he keep a part of his soul as a true Spirit? He wasn’t a great character like the Night Monarch.
Thus, Marvin inferred that he must have put a part of his soul away somewhere.
And this place was very safe.
He immediately thought of those incredible daggers!
The Bloody Emperor likely had remaining affection toward his Artifact that had helped him so much, and the Sodom Blades were also considered to be among the best Artifacts.
He had most likely placed his Spirit in his daggers!
This was also why there was no reaction before Marvin tried to grab Sodom’s Blades. The Spirit only appeared when the daggers touched Marvin’s palm.
Because that was when he had been awakened by Marvin.
And now, Marvin forcibly snatched Sodom’s Blades by using Edge Snatch, leaving behind an empty, dessicated corpse.
The Spirit was still inside the Artifact!
Usually, ordinary people who didn’t go through various protective rituals wouldn’t dare touch a weapon with a Spirit inside.
After all, such a weapon would obey the Spirit unconditionally. It would be troublesome for Marvin to subdue Sodom’s Blades with the Spirit inside.
It was even possible that if he was careless, he would have his consciousness swallowed by the Spirit and become a living host!
But Marvin was very confident about this part.
Facing the Book of Nalu for all this time had made his willpower reach a very frightening level.
And with the addition of the Wisdom Chapter, his mental fortitude was no worse than that of the Gods.
Regardless of what the evil power tried to do to him, his mind wouldn’t be influenced!
Marvin could feel that berserk, searing air burst from Sodom’s Blades, trying to attack his mind.
But unfortunately for the Bloody Emperor, whenever this power tried to attack, the countless runes floating there would automatically emit some soothing energy!
These runes were in the Ancient God Language and formed the contents of the Wisdom Chapter.
Marvin couldn’t make sense of what they depicted, but they helped Marvin in their own way.
His willpower was unaffected despite the repeated attacks from the Bloody Emperor’s Spirit.
“Give up your futile struggles.”
A smile appeared in the corner of Marvin’s mouth as he jeered, “Maybe if you change your tone, I might accept.”
Suddenly, on the other side of the room, the Black Knight’s hulking form appeared out of the stone gate!
Chapter 593: Breakthrough
Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation
Sangore looked at his mortal enemy, feeling extremely furious.
In the Black Knight’s eyes, Marvin could now be regarded as such without a doubt.
He looked at Sodom’s Blades, which Marvin was wielding in his hands, and immediately charged while brandishing his spear!
Marvin sneered, not worried about the Black Knight at all.
He had always avoided Sangore before. Firstly it was because the latter was strong and kept many helpers with him, so he really wasn’t easy to handle. Secondly, Marvin’s goal had been to get Sodom’s Blades, not to kill the Black Knight.
Now that the Artifact was in his hands, his primary goal had been accomplished. And the Black Knight had entered this mysterious space alone. In such a situation, Marvin wouldn’t be afraid of the Black Knight at all!
He burst out with great speed, leaving behind an afterimage.
The tip of the Black Knight’s spear looked frightening and carried tremendous power, looking like it was able to pierce through space itself.
But though that spear was formidable, it should only be about as powerful as Azure Leaf at best, just a Legendary Spear.
Marvin personally experienced the power of Sodom’s Blades, so he knew that the Black Knight’s attack simply couldn’t threaten him!
A single evasive step would enough to avoid the Black Knight’s attack.
The next second, his body suddenly burst out!
He instantly closed the remaining distance between the two. Sangore clearly hadn’t thought that Marvin’s physical abilities were at this level, because he wasn’t able to react in time!
This was the importance of reaction speed.
In a fierce melee fight, movement speed wasn’t the most important trait. Instead, reaction speed was more crucial.
Marvin took advantage of the opportunity to attack, and the curved dagger in his hand ripped through the air, slashing in a perfect arc.
This attack was aimed at the Black Knight’s forehead, but suddenly, an inexorable power condensed on his wrist!
His movements suddenly became sluggish!
This falter in Marvin’s movement opened up a huge flaw in his defenses.
The Black Knight suddenly raised his spear to block the curved dagger while at the same time kneeing Marvin.
It happened so suddenly that even Marvin couldn’t avoid it!
The Black Knight’s steel-like knee crashed onto Marvin’s abdomen with a muffled sound!
Marvin almost puked blood!
He flew back ten meters!
Fortunately, the Black Knight had been startled by Marvin’s attack, so this knee strike didn’t have his full power behind it. Otherwise, Marvin might have been critically injured!
…
‘Damn!’
‘I was shot in the back while fighting!’
Marvin awkwardly crawled out of the bone pile.
This time, he was really furious.
Just now, he had a huge opportunity to kill Black Knight Sangore, but instead, he was restrained by the Spirit inside Sodom’s Blades and received a harsh injury instead.
He hadn’t given the Spirit enough credit.
‘Without my permission, you’ll never be able to control this pair of daggers,’ a cold voice echoed in his mind. ‘Your willpower is quite formidable, which surprised me. But I am the master of my blades!’
Marvin felt a tingling pain in his abdomen as his eyes became cold.
He gripped Sodom’s Blades tighter and inwardly said, ‘You think I won’t be able to kill that Black Knight without these daggers?’
The other side was silent.
Marvin sneered, ‘I’ll get rid of that Black Knight first, and then I’ll slowly consume the power of your soul. Do you think you’ll have any chance of success?’
Sodom’s Blades shivered slightly.
“Clang! Clang!”
As the sounds echoed, the Black Knight saw the two curved daggers get stabbed into the wall!
The daggers kept shaking, like they were trying to struggle out of the wall, but they shortly found out that this was futile.
[Spirit Orb – Harvest]!
The powerful skill engulfed the Spirit inside Sodom’s Blades. After all these years, there wasn’t much energy left in the Bloody Emperor’s soul fragment, so under the powerful effect of Harvest, most of the power in the Artifact became sealed.
The curved daggers no longer shook.
Marvin wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth while grabbing a pair of curved daggers before focusing on the Black Knight.
Strangely, Sangore felt his heart pounding.
He hadn’t felt that feeling for a long time. In Feinan, he had always looked at others the way Marvin was looking at him now.
This was the apathetic gaze of someone at the top of the food chain.
This made Sangore furious.
He charged at Marvin with a roar.
Marvin instantly used Shadow Escape to approach the Black Knight!
“I know you are there!” Sangore roared while stabbing at Marvin’s location.
Thanks to the Black Knight’s experience from fighting for many years, he was able to immediately react to Marvin’s probing attack.
Unfortunately, the place he stabbed… was empty!
Marvin’s shadow brushed past, avoiding the attack without using any further skills.
The Black Knight was shocked!
This wasn’t a speed that Humans could reach.
But at this moment, Marvin simply didn’t notice it.
He had an indescribable jittery feeling in his chest, which he was sure had come from Sodom’s Blades. During the earlier sabotage attempt, the Bloody Emperor had tried to transmit some Evil Spirit Power deep into his mind.
Although he had failed, there were still some remnants.
Marvin was quite annoyed at this, so he really needed a target to vent on!
And the best one right now was the reckless Black Knight!
His eyes turned faintly red, as he had suffered quite a heavy blow from Sangore’s attack. It was the first serious injury in a while.
He wanted to kill the Black Knight immediately!
Marvin’s speed kept increasing, but the changes on his interface didn’t catch his attention.
Only his opponent, Sangore, noticed Marvin’s frightening changes.
His speed was astonishing. A pair of ordinary Magic daggers burst with frightening power in his hands.
Despite being a stronger weapon, the Black Knight’s spear simply couldn’t follow Marvin’s curved daggers!
The distance between both sides widened and shrank, but everything was under Marvin’s control.
A dagger slash ruthlessly cut through Sangore’ armor. Despite his armor being extremely sturdy, under Marvin flurry of unpredictable attacks, some holes and cracks started appearing.
Marvin looked like a frightening ghost, fighting Sangore with speed exceeding the latter’s understanding!
In the Black Knight’s eyes, he had gone from fighting a difficult foe to being completely surrounded by them!
This speed… Made Sangore feel a chill.
This wasn’t a speed that mortals should have.
This was the Godly Realm.
He clenched his teeth, taking out his final card!
The 2nd page of the Book of Nalu – Prosperity!
Chapter 594: Seed (1)
Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation
The Book of Nalu was Black Knight Sangore’s last resort.
Marvin was too fast for Sangore to use his special abilities from Hell that Saydis had granted him.
Offensive skills weren’t very useful when he couldn’t even keep track of his target.
Moreover, Sangore had found out from Saydis that Marvin was also closely related to Hell, so those abilities might not be able to injure him.
At this point, he could only take out his trump card!
The Book of Nalu was an Artifact, while also being a terrifying, evil book.
Marvin had always been wary of the Book of Nalu, making sure not to let it invade his soul.
Because of how careful Marvin was, the Book of Nalu had no chance to control his mind, but he also wasn’t able to get many benefits from it.
Besides sometimes using it to control someone’s soul, the Book of Nalu was nothing more than a hot potato to Marvin.
But it was different for the Black Knight.
His soul had already been offered to Saydis so he had no problem with digging deep in the Book of Nalu, exploring the Artifact’s powers.
It could even be said that the power of the 2nd Page, Prosperity, was almost fully under his control.
“I command you!”
The Black Knight’s voice echoed through the room.
“Kneel!”
A powerful force began to burst out of the Book of Nalu, shrouding the whole room in a mix of crimson and yellow aura.
And as if following the Black Knight’s imposing order, Marvin’s originally flickering silhouette began slowing down at a visible rate!
It felt as if a big hand came out of nowhere and pressed down on Marvin.
That hand was pushing on his back, trying to force him to kneel!
Marvin frowned, knowing that this was the ability from the Book of Nalu!
He couldn’t kneel because if he did, he might become a slave like the two outside!
Marvin’s formidable willpower allowed him to resist the power of the Prosperity page.
Then, he took an item out from his chest pocket.
The Black Knight’s expression became unsightly!
After being in touch with the Book of Nalu for so many years, he naturally recognized what Marvin took out!
Compared to the rolled page in his hand, what Marvin was holding looked slightly more like a book.
He realized that Marvin had already obtained at least two pages of the Book of Nalu!
“How could it be? … No!”
The Black Knight froze. While he knew that Marvin had a page of the Book of Nalu, it hadn’t occurred to him that this youth might have more than one page!
For so many years, the Black Knight Monastery’s goal had been to secretly gather the pages of the Book of Nalu, but despite all their effort, they had only managed to gather some ambiguous information.
Sangore believed that the pages of the Book of Nalu should be extremely elusive and that most of them probably hadn’t even been found.
But the cruel truth hit him in the face.
Under Marvin’s cold stare, the power from the Prosperity page weakened greatly.
“Want me to kneel?”
“I’m afraid you aren’t able to make me.”
He opened the Book of Nalu in his hand, silently giving it an order.
‘Swallow!’
“Wuwuwu!”
The low whimper echoed through the air as the Book of Nalu in Marvin’s hands emitted an even brighter radiance.
The book in Marvin’s hands started causing a great suction force.
The Black Knight firmly grasped the Prosperity page in his hands, but it was futile.
Marvin’s Book of Nalu had been enhanced by consuming Divine Source!
The pages all had the ability to swallow or combine with each other.
Under the relentless pull from the 6th page, Rebirth, as well as the 11th page, Reincarnation, Prosperity finally broke out of the Black Knight’s hands.
The pale yellow parchment flew into Marvin’s hands like a moth attracted by fire, and quickly turned into a gentle glow as it merged with the other two pages of the Book of Nalu!
A formidable power was gathering in Marvin’s hands.
At the same time, the tempting voice beside his ears became even louder.
But this temptation was nothing in front of Marvin’s willpower.
With the Book of Nalu like that, Sodom’s Blades didn’t even seem worth mentioning.
In a few seconds, the pages of the Book of Nalu finished fusing.
Now it was thicker, and although there were only three pages, it seemed even more like an Artifact.
Marvin roused the runes of the Wisdom Chapter in his mind to suppress the restless Book of Nalu, leaving it in storage for now.
The power of the Book of Nalu had to be handled properly. Otherwise, unless he continued to increase his willpower, problems would arise.
After all, this book once made a God explode his own God Realm.
Marvin never relaxed.
“What next?” Marvin sneered arrogantly as he glanced at the Black Knight.
The latter’s expression became pale under his black helmet before he charged crazily at Marvin!
…
A minute later, Marvin had recovered, and he walked silently toward the stone wall.
After losing the blessing of the Book of Nalu, the poor Black Knight Sangore simply wasn’t Marvin’s opponent.
In order to settle the fight quickly, Marvin used Ruler’s Wrath.
In that limited space, the Black Knight simply couldn’t dodge well enough to avoid the attacks of such a powerful Ranger.
He died full of grievance, forcibly stomped to death by Marvin.
Because his soul was in Saydis’ hands, after his physical body was crushed, he would fall to oblivion.
His body was very sturdy, almost invulnerable.
But faced with Marvin’s might, under that frightening foot, Sangore was directly crushed to death.
Despite this, Marvin also felt some pain after returning to normal.
That guy really was made of metal. If he hadn’t lost his mind after losing the Book of Nalu, throwing himself at Marvin for no reason, Marvin would have had to pay a price to kill him, since he’d been weakened from using Diamond Shape.
But now, the Black Knight was dead, the Prosperity page was in his hands, and the other two had become Marvin’s slaves.
[Prosperity] had a fairly powerful soul-swallowing and control ability. Compared with [Rebirth], it could control more souls.
However, these people could only use a smaller portion of their strength, so in this regard, Prosperity was inferior to Rebirth.
Now that the pages had combined, the Book of Nalu’s pages mutually compensated for each of their weaknesses. Marvin felt a little weird now that he controlled four people, but he didn’t feel much strain.
‘Should still have room for two or three more.’
This was Marvin’s estimate.
But normally, Marvin wouldn’t go around seeking people out to swallow their souls and make them his subordinates.
…
Standing beside the wall, Marvin still had yet to notice the changes that he had undergone during the battle.
His attention was focused on Sodom’s Blades.
His hands were on the handles.
‘Now, let’s have a serious discussion…’ He transmitted this firm message to the Spirit inside the blades.
The latter remained silent for a long time.
It may have been shocked by Marvin’s spiritual power. After a long time, it slowly replied, ‘These are my weapons, no one can use them without my permission.’
‘You are indeed qualified to become their owners, but I need your help to do something.’
‘Before you do that, my blades will temporarily follow you, but you’ll be unable to use their full strength.’
Marvin narrowed his eyes. ‘Are you trying to negotiate with me?’
That voice bitterly responded, ‘I really hate to have my beloved weapons submit to someone else. If I were still alive, I would definitely dismember you.’
Marvin shrugged. ‘Unfortunately, you already died. A millennium has passed. You shouldn’t even have a fragment of your soul remaining.’
The Spirit sneered, ‘Even though I died, I can still take my Artifact down with me.’
‘I’ve always been their master.’
Marvin sighed. ‘There is no need. This is just a pair of weapons. You destroyed my best weapons, and I’ve yet to ask you for compensation.’
The Spirit snorted, ‘Vulgar Human. You should know that your most beloved weapons would never betray you.’
‘Other things are unreliable.’
Marvin didn’t feel like listening to the tyrant’s story and bluntly asked, ‘What is it that you need?’
‘I have a seed,’ the Spirit quickly explained, ” and I need you to deliver it to a woman.”
‘It is extremely important. If you complete that task, these daggers will be yours, and I’ll disappear.’
An image of a woman appeared in Marvin’s mind.
“Eh?” Marvin was in a daze.
‘How could it be her?’ he wondered to himself.
Chapter 595: Seed (2)
Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation
In this world, there were always some unclear coincidences.
Marvin went to Devil Town to seek Sodom’s Blades. In fact, it first came from his instincts as a player. With his strength increasing, his equipment had to be changed too.
As a Ruler of the Night, other equipment might not be as important, but good weapons were essential.
Marvin had always been proud of how skillful he was at killing, but when fighting the Divine Servants in the recent days, his Legendary Daggers had already been somewhat behind.
An era ago, the Azure Leafs would be good enough.
But now it was after the Great Calamity!
This was the era of shining stars, and it was also the most chaotic era.
Even if Feinan post-Great Calamity didn’t look like the 3rd Era, which birthed countless geniuses, there were still quite a few emerging here and there. What was most terrifying about this period was that those Gods who left their names behind in the 3rd Era would set foot onto Feinan once more.
Although the Universe Magic Pool had yet to be breached at the moment, the shadows could always be seen quietly approaching.
Ambella, the 1st Divine Servant of the Dream God, was only a small part of a whole.
In the letter that Eve sent to Marvin, it was mentioned that a church of Dawn and Protection had been established in a small town in the North.
With a church appearing so quickly and robustly after the Great Calamity, if there was no Divine Servant behind it, Marvin wouldn’t believe it. In other words, a Divine Servant of the God of Dawn and Protection had already descended.
After all, people were very self-centered in this era. No one would follow a protector that didn’t have enough strength.
Even if said protector was a God.
What was worth mentioning was that compared to the game, the respect of the current natives in Feinan toward the Gods had been weakened quite a bit, even without the players, the Golden Children.
They even had a faint hatred of the Gods.
In the game’s history, this hatred had been toned down by the constant fear for survival and the temptation of faith, and gradually, because of their desire for salvation, they slowly forgot who caused the disaster in the first place.
They started believing in Gods and contributing their Faith, thus allowing the Gods to become stronger.
But it was different this time.
With the advent of the world-shaking disaster, countless heroes stood out.
They were mortals.
Everyone who saw that scene had been emotionally moved.
The Great Elven King left Feinan! The Cloud Monk left Feinan! The North Guardian left Feinan!
There was also that nameless youth who had turned into an Astral Beast, silently protecting their land, Feinan.
Heroes fought for them above Feinan, and meanwhile, on the ground, Dark Phoenix’s ascension also attracted the attention of countless people.
White River Valley, the Night Walkers, the Great Druids, the Sea Elves, the Old Alliance of the Seven Orders, the North’s Valkyrie, Rocky Mountain…
These heroes of mankind went all-out to protect this land.
Passion was contagious.
And so was courage.
After Dark Phoenix’s death, people saw that even a God could also be killed. Thus the Gods lost a lot of respect with the people of Feinan, and that hatred became more intense.
And Eric’s death… They remembered that youth’s appearance, but they didn’t lose hope or become dispirited. The memory of him fighting for them turned into the courage that they strove for.
This all created some unconscious changes, which Marvin was happy with.
Mortals’ minds were something wonderful. Sometimes they would be easily played by conspiracies, while sometimes they would seem stubborn and difficult to manipulate.
Marvin knew that to truly influence the course of this world and change the past history, he would have to start from this.
He couldn’t withstand the God Realms and other planes by himself.
He needed all of Feinan to stand up alongside White River Valley.
Of course, personal strength would also help along the way.
As Marvin got stronger, the load he was carrying on his shoulders became heavier.
He was being watched by many people, and the Dream God would soon come after him, the evil intent from the Dream World would soon arrive.
Not mentioning the other Gods he had offended.
The slumbering, or perhaps hibernating, Shadow Prince, the low-key Black Dragon God, the three Great Gods whose standings were unknown…
This was the power of the God Realm!
Marvin didn’t forget about the Negative Energy Plane’s Hartson, now called Tidomas, who was still concerned about him. If not for Louise sending him to the Elemental Plane of Water, who knows what price Marvin would have had to pay to avoid Tidomas’ pursuit?
He still had Tidomas’ Divine Source in his hand!
Thinking about it, Marvin had quite a few enemies. In fact, apart from Hell’s forces, whose attitude toward him was a bit uncertain, the other three forces had completely been offended by him.
The Universe Magic Pool would be breached sooner or later, and all Marvin could do before then was to increase his own strength. To an unreachable level.
And having suitable weapons was crucial for that.
To Marvin, Sodom’s Blades were naturally the first choice. In his memories, there were at least three locations in Feinan where Artifact-level curved daggers were hidden.
The attributes of these Artifacts weren’t as powerful as those of Sodom’s Blades, which cemented his decision.
But he hadn’t thought that after finding Sodom’s Blades, he would learn that an acquaintance would actually be involved.
…
‘That woman…’
‘Butterfly?’
When he recognized the figure in his mind as that strange Elf, Marvin’s expression became rather strange.
In the Chromatic Dragon Temple, he had found out about Butterfly’s status as a High Elf.
She was the first one crowned as the High Elven Queen in the 2nd Era!
And she was the most loyal subordinate of the Night Monarch.
The immortality of High Elves was well known, but Marvin hadn’t thought that the aloof High Elven Queen actually had some connection with the tyrant of the Underdark.
‘You know her?’
The Spirit inside Sodom’s Blades noticed Marvin’s sudden change of mood.
‘Yeah.’ Marvin nodded.
He should be considered familiar with Butterfly, right? After she recovered her memory in the Temple, who knew what this person would do? However, it had been arranged by Professor, so it should be beneficial for Feinan, and the mortals having another powerhouse at the level of the Plane Guardians wasn’t too bad either.
She should be close to Thousand Leaves Forest at the moment. At least, the last time he saw her, it looked like she was heading to the Night Monarch’s underground realm. So Marvin knew where to start his search.
Thinking of this, Marvin solemnly promised, ‘I’ll definitely get that thing, that seed, and hand it over to her.’
The Spirit was silent for a moment before giving off a faint, happy feeling. ‘Since that’s the case… these daggers are in your hands.’
‘I’ll slumber for now, unless something especially urgent happens. You can only use a part of the power in my blades until you fulfill your promise.’
‘The seed is on my corpse. There is a bag beside the Ruler’s Blood Jade. You can take it.’
It seemed like the Spirit’s voice started weakening after Marvin made his promise. It ultimately disappeared from Marvin’s mind.
This pair of cold curved daggers was finally in Marvin’s hands.
Chapter 596: Contract Stone
Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation
Saydis felt that everything that had just happened was far beyond what anyone could have predicted.
He had raised Black Knight Sangore as his chess piece to act out the will of the Extreme Evil Hell in Feinan.
Saydis controlled the Black Knight’s soul very firmly, using his pawn to do things in Feinan that he couldn’t do himself.
Such as debt collection.
Saydis would never forget the time when he went to ask for his remuneration and ended up being humiliated by the Bloody Emperor, almost losing his life. That was when the entire Underdark Empire was celebrating wantonly, and countless eyes witnessed his embarrassment. He originally thought that the Bloody Emperor would comply with the contract they had signed, but instead, the brutal ruler made a shocking move.
He went against the contract and offended all of Hell.
But for so many years, what confused Saydis the most was how the Bloody Emperor had managed to dodge the contract.
Thus, he had ordered the Black Knight to go into the Emperor’s tomb, in part to clarify this.
But the outcome was detrimental to him.
When the Black Knight’s body was crushed, Saydis, as the owner of his soul, felt it immediately.
Saydis narrowed his eyes in thought.
He wasn’t so surprised about the Black Knight dying inside the tomb. This only proved that the hateful swindler had left some more cards behind.
At worst, he would have to use a few more chess pieces to try the tomb.
But when Marvin came out of the tomb safe and sound along with three others, Saydis lost his calm veneer!
‘How could it be?’
‘That guy actually succeeded?’
‘Sangore had that hidden trump card, the Book of Nalu, as well as my supporting contract. Even if he couldn’t withstand the Spirit of the Bloody Emperor, he still should have been able to get away… Could it be…’
‘The Black Knight was killed by Marvin?’
This information was a bit hard to believe.
In Saydis’ eyes, although Marvin wasn’t too bad, he felt that Marvin drew his strength from way too many different sources. A noble Devil like Saydis was very disdainful of all the sprawling abilities Marvin possessed, coming from all kinds of directions and diluting the purity of his power.
He didn’t believe that the Black Knight could lose to Marvin.
But the reality was right there before his eyes.
Marvin took out a petrified heart and gently handed it over to Blackhand, not even giving Saydis a glance.
Blackhand Bard smiled, about to receive it.
But suddenly, Saydis reacted and yelled in a loud voice, “Mister Marvin!”
“Please wait a moment!”
Marvin smiled as he turned to look. “What is it, Sir Saydis?”
Saydis chuckled, temporarily throwing the shock and disbelief to the back of his mind.
He was a very realistic person.
He looked at the petrified heart in Marvin’s hand. There was only one possibility, which was that he had completely taken care of the Bloody Emperor’s Spirit.
Not only was the Bloody Emperor considered a hateful existence by Saydis, but it went even further than that: to the Nine Hells’ Devils, regardless of how many excuses Saydis used, he was the first Devil to ever be cheated like that by a Human. This was the biggest humiliation.
The Extreme Evil Lord had been seriously injured during the fight over the fragments of the 3rd Fate Tablet, and he was now an arrow at the end of its flight.
Devils were very ambitious, and those in the Extreme Evil Hell were all like vultures, silently watching the silhouette on the throne getting weaker day by day.
Saydis, as the 2nd son of that lord, was the same.
But he didn’t have much support in the Extreme Evil Hell.
With Saydis’ wily tricks and great strength, he should have been a top contender to become the successor. But the matter of being tricked by the Bloody Emperor all those years ago was something that could never be erased.
To inherit that throne as well as the power that came with it, he had to wash away his humiliation!
In other words, he had to carry out the terms of his contract with the Bloody Emperor!
He had to obtain that swindler’s soul! This was extremely important to him!
…
Given the situation, even though his previous relationship with Marvin wasn’t especially harmonious, he had a sudden change of attitude.
He pulled himself together and gave a broad grin. “I’m willing to pay a high price to purchase the contract stone you got from the Bloody Emperor’s corpse.”
Marvin’s eyebrows rose up in surprise, pretending not to understand. “Stone? What stone? Are you talking about this?”
“But this is the petrified heart, not the contract stone. It’s something the Scorched Hell asked for in advance. This was also why they were willing to help me enter Devil Town.” Marvin’s acting looked rather convincing.
Trying to deceive Saydis was generally not a very advisable move. After all, with his understanding of Devils, he could tell how much Saydis longed for the contract stone.
But unfortunately for that Devil, Marvin couldn’t give it to him.
That contract stone was the key to Marvin finishing the task that the Spirit had entrusted him with. Only by handing it to Butterfly would Marvin be able to obtain the approval of Sodom’s Blades.
At the same time, he might be able to learn about what had happened that year in the Underdark Empire.
Thus, he was already prepared to hide it from Saydis.
Upon seeing Marvin’s sincere expression, Saydis could only frown. “No stone?” he asked.
Marvin bluntly spread his hands out and repeated, “No stone.”
Saydis sighed and said in a low voice, “Since that’s the case… Your performance amazed me. That was a powerful Spirit, and not only did you come back alive, but you also managed to obtain a lot of benefits from it. Don’t be in a hurry to deny it, I can feel that pair of dangerous weapons. It’s regretful that there was no stone, but I am a very reasonable Devil.”
“If one day… yes let us say that, suppose one day, you suddenly remember obtaining some stone during your adventure in the tomb. If so, please contact me.”
“I’m willing to pay a high price, a price you can’t even imagine, and also to promise the friendship of the Extreme Evil Hell.”
After saying these words, Saydis’ silhouette slowly disappeared.
A pitch-black rune remained in Marvin’s hands.
Marvin weighed the rune in his hand before putting it away.
Although Saydis was definitely not a good person, many different kinds of friends could be found in different places. In this era, who could guarantee that they would always have it smooth, and never need more allies?
Perhaps one day, he would really need that black rune.
After Saydis left, everyone there let out a sigh of relief.
The powerful Devil emitted a lot of pressure on everyone around him, even in a place like Devil Town.
Marvin gave Blackhand the petrified heart, which he had promised him before entering the tomb, and Blackhand left for the Scorched Hell.
Like Saydis, Blackhand Bard left him a new way of contacting the Scorched Hell.
Marvin looked at the black rune in his storage as well as the blood-red stone he was now holding, looking pensive.
The biggest harvest, besides Sodom’s Blades and the page of the Book of Nalu, was those two things.
These two objects represented two powers of the Nine Hells.
Given the current complicated state of Feinan, these two things would come in handy sooner or later.
There was no doubt about it.
…
After leaving Devil Town, Marvin parted ways with the other three.
Those three would follow the same route they had used to come to Devil Town, cross a tunnel to reach the other shore, leave the Underdark for White River Valley, and then report to Madeline and follow her arrangements.
As for Marvin, he would follow the rugged path and head west.
‘It’s time to pay a visit to the traitorous Witch.’
He glanced at the swamp, a grin appearing on his face.
Chapter 597: Post-Godly Dexterity
Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation
The Rotten Mushroom Swamp was the Underdark’s southernmost domain.
Because of the Snake Witch, most people who went there on their own would never come back.
The Snake Witch had set traps everywhere and then retreated to live in a cabin in the middle of the swamp, spending all her time researching how to remove the curse from the Witch Queen.
Unfortunately, she might never have the chance to remove that curse.
Because today, Marvin was coming to visit!
…
Marvin had never been a person who liked to slaughter aimlessly, but a villain like the Snake Witch was different.
That woman was considered a viper in the annals of Feinan’s history.
Because she failed to seize the power of the Witch Queen, she defected and divulged the location of the Anzeds’ headquarters to their enemies, making the Anzed Witches suffer heavy losses. Afterward, she entered the Underdark and tried to take over a force so that she could at least rule over something. But because the man she was supporting was also having contact with other women, she used the poison that she was so proficient with to kill that man, and made the entire city fall into fear of poison and disease.
At least 3000 innocents died because of her actions.
As it was recorded, that year, over three hundred nobles were poisoned to death in [Mottled City], and as for the lowly commoners and slaves, there were too many of them to properly count.
Even though it had been a famous city of the Underdark, Mottled City was unable to recover, continuing to decline over time.
Ultimately, the city became a ghost town, and the people who once lived there went far away, many migrating to the Rosen Strongholds.
This was all caused by the Snake Witch’s vicious attack.
And when the Witch Queen came to make her pay for her actions, she tried to collude with a being from an external plane, but her attempts were seen through.
The aberration had been banished to the Astral Plane’s Void, and she was cursed.
She still had her alluring appearance, but once she left the Swamp, she would become extremely ugly.
If the sun shone upon her, her skin would begin to fester.
And because of the curse, no one would like her. Everyone would feel an indescribable loathsome feeling when seeing her face.
This was the punishment that the Witch Queen had given her.
For a millennium, the Snake Witch had been living in seclusion in the shadows.
The power of hatred was formidable, and she also wanted to remove the previous Witch Queen’s curse.
Some players in the game had mentioned that it was possible to choose to assist with the Snake Witch’s revenge.
But that quest would normally only be taken by evil-aligned players, because if successful, the Anzeds’ wrath would soon descend upon them.
And the Snake Witch would also launch a series of revenge plans herself.
Unfortunately for her, in the game, the quest had been broken by a group of players.
They received a counter mission from the Anzed Witches to find out the specific circumstances of the Snake Witch, and once they arrived at the swamp, they killed her.
Marvin had found out about the Snake Witch when news of this quest had been revealed.
That woman was very powerful. In fact, if she didn’t have such a malicious character, her extreme talent could have made her a very helpful person.
Her Alchemy and Potioneering, particularly when it came to making poisons, had reached an extremely high level, and if used properly, she would have been able to amass an incredible amount of wealth through completely legitimate means.
Unfortunately, history had proved that this woman was unwilling to give up on attaining power, and she wasn’t someone that was easily convinced.
Marvin came here to learn about her Potioneering, and to get her Alchemy Items.
And if he had to kill her, it would be just a matter of getting rid of a trouble for the Anzeds. He could do it on the way.
After all, Hathaway was the current Anzed Witch Queen, so getting rid of one of her enemies was the least he could do for her.
…
There were traps all over the Rotten Mushroom Swamp, but Marvin knew of a path that safely went around the center of the swamp.
That path was actually an escape route that the Snake Witch had left. To use it, one would have to circumvent Devil Town and enter the swamp from the southern wildlands.
The Snake Witch had felt that the Dark River was a sufficient obstacle that it should be fine to leave this small path for times when she would need to leave.
But it was too bad for her that Loremaster Marvin had arrived in this world.
She was likely to die this day in her swamp!
…
A faint rotten smell floated in the air.
Will-o’-wisps and the occasional exploding mushrooms made sure that anyone taking this path had to stay alert.
Marvin activated his Stealth and slowly walked forward along the muddy path, going from cover to cover.
He knew that he had to remain careful.
The Snake Witch was a very crafty person. She had set up many traps and monitoring items on the path.
If he was careless and triggered something, it would give the Snake Witch some time to prepare.
The Snake Witch was a Legend in the 3rd Era, so the fact that she was still alive now meant that she must have a lot of skill.
Marvin was confident that he could kill the Snake Witch if he caught her off guard.
If she was prepared, it would be a lot more troublesome.
Thus, he proceeded very carefully as he approached the almost unmoving Dark River.
‘Living all her life in a place where even the birds don’t dare to shit. Even a regular person would become abnormal after all this time…’
Marvin inwardly sighed.
Just as he had this thought, a crow landed on a large clump of grass in the river ahead of him, making Marvin stop.
The crow’s eyes were red, and it pecked at the grass. From the gaps in the grass, it could be seen that there was a thick, shredded corpse!
Marvin glanced at it and determined that it was the corpse of a lizard.
He still didn’t move.
This crow was one of the creatures that the Snake Witch used to monitor the surroundings. Although Marvin’s Stealth was high, in front of an intelligent lifeform that had been tampered with, it was better not to risk exposing himself.
Marvin decided to go with the safest option.
Wait!
As a Legend rogue, Marvin knew the importance of waiting, and he also had the patience to do so.
He would wait for that crow to fly away and then take the opportunity to jump to the clump of grass.
That pile of grass was floating very slowly down the river. If it moved too far away, who knew when he would see another pile of grass?
In this swamp, rashly using a displacement skill could likely be sensed by the Witch.
Marvin had to be extremely low-key.
But looking at the distance between him and that clump of grass, Marvin couldn’t help wanting to scratch his head a bit.
‘Looks a bit far.’
‘If I do a long jump and then use the second midair jump, I can probably land on it, but that kind of movement skill might trigger an alarm of some sort…’
Marvin was thinking about the best approach for him to take, when suddenly, he realized something.
‘Hold on… My Dexterity…’
‘My body… When did I break through?!’
When his sight fell onto his interface, he suddenly became stunned and overjoyed.
Because at this moment he saw that under the attributes section of his interface, it was written:
[Dexterity: 35] (Post-Godly Dexterity)
Chapter 598: Killing Instinct
Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation
The six main attributes had always caused Marvin headaches, as they were the most difficult things to improve.
At this point, even if he increased the level of his Legend Class, he wouldn’t gain any more attribute points from it.
To increase his attributes now, he had to do it like the natives did, by temper himself.
Marvin had previously tempered his Strength and Constitution with the former leader of the Night Walkers, Sean, increasing those attributes to some extent.
Although the Essence Absorption System that he possessed was amazing, it had its limits.
After reaching the Legend realm, the essences that would still give him noticeable benefits were becoming fewer and fewer.
Naturally, this was related to the battle experience he got from killing monsters.
The only real help he could receive from the Essence Absorption System was when he killed lifeforms on the same level as Divine Servants.
But even so, after playing around with the system, Marvin had come to the conclusion that transforming those essences into attribute points was absurdly inefficient. Thus, Marvin decided to convert all his battle experience into skill points. Although that wasn’t particularly efficient either, it wasn’t like there was much else for him to do with the experience now.
Thus, there hadn’t been much of a change in his attributes for a long time.
These six attributes were the foundation of his body.
After becoming a Legend, he gained all sorts of specialties upgraded his body implicitly.
After all, the body was very complicated and couldn’t just be summarized accurately into six attributes.
But then again, with the continuous improvement of Marvin’s power, the other attributes had been complemented in other aspects. It was just that Dexterity had been stuck at 30 points for all this time.
He was very clear about this, but couldn’t do much about it.
The boundary of Godly Dexterity was the limit that Humans could reach.
It was like like an invisible shackle. To break through the limit, one would have to use special means, like ascending to Godhood, turning into a Lich, accepting the gift of a Greater Devil, or practicing extremely secret techniques.
But the last was too rare, far too difficult to discover.
Marvin had also been looking for a way to break through besides ascending and ultimately chose to nurture his False Divine Vessel.
Even though the Fairy didn’t speak much about it, he could feel that the advanced Divine Vessel was very precious. He could feel a formidable power stored inside, but that power was still condensing and hadn’t burst out yet.
The False Divine Vessel was a very long-term investment so it would be quite a while before it paid returns.
Marvin prepared to wait patiently for that.
But he didn’t think that he would randomly break through so suddenly.
He was filled with a pleasant feeling of surprise!
If not for that crow still waiting there, Marvin would have likely jumped up in excitement!
‘When did it happen?!’
He started recalling the recent events… and finally, the scene of the fight with the Black Knight appeared in his mind.
It seemed like it might have been the provocation of Sodom’s Blades, which could have triggered something in the advanced False Divine Vessel. Everything seemed too shocking.
Marvin had obtained an ability in the battle, and this ability was associated with the advanced Divine Vessel.
[Post-Godly Dexterity: With the help of the advanced False Divine Vessel, you broke through the Plane’s Laws and gained an Advanced Authority]
[Post-Godly Dexterity: The power being restrained for a long time in your body has been unleashed. Dexterity +4]
[Post-Godly Dexterity: Detected trace of the Plane Will’s approval, bonus Dexterity +1]
[Post-Godly Dexterity: Your Dexterity reached 35]
…
35!
No wonder he was able to handle the Black Knight so easily!
No wonder Sangore had looked at him as if seeing a monster.
Marvin didn’t even notice it back then, but he was overjoyed now that he found out.
He finally broke through.
This meant that he had accomplished something that his predecessors weren’t able to, and his strength had substantially increased yet again!
Sodom’s Blades!
Post-Godly Dexterity!
These two things alone were enough to let Marvin establish himself among the most powerful of Legends.
But Marvin’s potential didn’t stop there.
Each level in the Ruler of the Night class would give him extremely frightening skills. Eternal Night Seal and Ruler’s Wrath both proved it.
Moreover, the advanced False Divine Vessel’s strength not only helped Marvin break through the Dexterity limit. In the Post-Godly Dexterity line, there was also faint box on the side.
[Killing Instinct] (Nurturing…)
It was clear that this Killing Instinct was another ability of the false Divine Vessel that he could unlock.
He couldn’t use it yet, but Marvin believed that the ability would definitely be related to the Slaughter Domain. Moreover, it was very likely that it would increase Marvin’s fighting strength tremendously once more.
Thinking of this, Marvin immediately felt like he was brimming with power.
With a treasure like the advanced False Divine Vessel, how could he have any worries that his strength wouldn’t increase in the near future?
…
The appearance of Post-Godly Dexterity proved that Marvin’s rate of growth had no issues.
Gods weren’t the only ones that could become stronger. There were many powerhouses in ancient times who had used their own methods, and Marvin believed he would manage to do something similar.
Like the Ruler of the Night.
He calmed down after the wave of joy.
Marvin wasn’t that would lose himself in success.
He calmly waited a few more minutes before that crow slowly flew away.
A bit after it took off, it turned around to give another look, as if it instinctively felt something. But Marvin’s Stealth was too strong, so the crow flapped its wings and flew away.
The next step was to quickly reach the core of the swamp.
Thanks to the guilds’ forum posts, Marvin actually knew his way around the swamp somewhat, so there shouldn’t be any problems on that end.
He crossed the river and continued following the path, relying on his outstanding Dexterity to move very quickly.
Soon, he left the outer [Mushroom Area] of the swamp.
The cabin could already be seen far away in the distance.
He stood behind some tall grass, studying his surroundings.
He was now in an area known as the [Lizard Area].
As the name implied, the snake Witch raised many lizards there. These lizards had the ability to sense minute differences in heat. If he was too close, he would be likely be discovered in spite of his incredible Stealth. Silently going through the Lizard Area to kill the Witch was normally just a fantasy.
In the game, some guilds formed a few groups of Legends and forced their way over.
But luckily, a lone Ranger found out a trick, which Marvin was currently using.
Thus, he wasn’t too worried at the moment. He checked the movements of several lizards before finally jumping, not toward the cabin, but actually toward the dense foggy area to the west.
There, the fog was extremely thick, but the strange part was that there was a warm radiance from the foggy mist. Any normal person would probably hesitate to wander into a strange, dense mist near the dwelling of someone so well known for making poisons.
Marvin remained calm, slowing down his pace as he moved toward the [Courtyard Area].
Inside the Courtyard Area, there was a small ravine filled with odd holes leading to the surface.
Sunshine would occasionally pierce through from the surface to enter the Underdark.
Naturally, this was one of the favorite places of the Snake Witch.
Chapter 599: Starting the Operation
Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation
From what Marvin knew, although the Snake Witch was cold-hearted and unyielding, she still had a fatal weak point.
The Witch Queen’s curse made her unable to see the sun, or else her skin would fester. But she was originally a Human from the surface.
Longing for the sun was an instinct that every normal lifeform had.
The information he knew of suggested that the Snake Witch frequently left the well-protected cabin for the surroundings of the Courtyard Area, looking from a distance at the rare sunshine piercing into the Underdark.
Even from that distance, she could feel the temperature rise somewhat.
Maybe this was the driving force behind her desire to remove the curse.
But for Marvin, this was a way to bypass her defenses.
After all, even if he was powerful, forcibly breaking into the lair of a millennium-old Witch would be very risky.
The soil in the path that Marvin was walking along had become a lot more solid.
A great amount of moisture had slowly disappeared into the fog, and solid ground had replaced the natural mud-trap that had covered most of the swamp.
Marvin followed the path based on what he could remember, feeling about on his way, before ultimately finding the Courtyard Area.
The so-called courtyard was actually a small hole.
Marvin’s biological clock was still following the rhythm of the surface, so he knew that it was night up there and that there would be no light in the courtyard.
The terrain was very complicated. In short, it was small underground ravine with a handful of exits. It was like going through a tunnel filled with cobwebs, with passages on the sides.
But even Marvin, who had a lot of information about the Underdark, didn’t know where the other passages led to.
The most important part of the Courtyard Area was a pile of rocks that was very strange. A poplar tree was growing out of the center of that pile of rocks.
The poplar tree seemed seriously undernourished, but it didn’t have any signs of being tainted in any way. It was just a normal tree.
In the frightening Underdark, it was simply a miracle for this kind of tree to survive.
Marvin knew that this definitely had to be because the Snake Witch was taking good care of it.
If not for the sunshine coming into the Courtyard Area, this poplar tree would surely have died by now.
He thought about it for a while before walking over to the pile of rocks and standing under the poplar tree.
Looking up, he saw a long, dark tunnel. Even with Darksight, Marvin was still unable to see the surface through the tunnel.
But he was certain that this small opening was the one mentioned in the post.
The poplar tree was quite withered, with almost no leaves left. Marvin looked at his surroundings and then lowered his body while using the Hide skill of his Ranger class.
Since the class had reached level 10, his Hide ability was very powerful.
He had the bonuses from his Ranger and Ruler of the Night specialties, so it shouldn’t be possible to notice him hiding by the poplar tree.
Even if the sunshine shone down on him, Marvin was certain that he wouldn’t be found by that Snake Witch.
Although his strength had increased greatly, he still remained vigilant of his enemies.
Being careless had been the downfall of many incredible powerhouses, so Marvin would be careful not to make such a mistake because he treasured this chance at a new life.
…
Time passed very slowly.
Marvin was extremely patient, and he knew that the Snake Witch didn’t come to the Courtyard Area every day.
But if he couldn’t catch the Witch within three days, he would have to take the initiative.
After all, he had agreed with Jessica about when to meet up again before setting off.
And when they left the Rosen Strongholds, Marvin was almost certain that the team of Legends would depart fairly soon.
If he lagged behind by too much, that team would be annihilated and Marvin would have to face the Final Ghost Mother without their help. Marvin knew that the chances of success would be much lower.
And that was even if he could get the rumored sword that could slay the Final Ghost Mother.
As he waited, most of the Underdark seemed unfathomably quiet.
This silence could make people go crazy and cause some people with weak willpower to be tempted by the devilish voices whispering by their ears. These voices weren’t illusions; they came from the Devils of the Nine Hells.
Because of the plane’s barriers, it was difficult for the Devils to reach Feinan.
But the Underdark was different because it was located at the lowest part of Feinan and was much closer to the Nine Hells. It was even said that it was possible to reach some lower planes from the depths of the Underdark.
This rumor wasn’t completely preposterous. After all, Marvin had personally seen the river Styx flowing in front of him.
The Underworld was the lowest plane, the river Styx flowed through the Underdark to the Underworld, so it wouldn’t be surprising if the depths of the Underdark could link to Hell or the Abyss on the way.
…
Two days later.
As Marvin was approaching the limit of how long he was willing to wait, ripples appeared in the deadly silent air ahead of him.
Marvin still maintained his concealed posture, calmly leaning against the side of the poplar tree opposite the cabin.
He turned his head slightly and peered over. In the darkness of the tunnel, a pair of red eyes could be seen.
‘Not Human?’ Marvin was a little disappointed.
Shortly after, he was overjoyed!
Because he noticed that the figure was a languid viper!
This snake was completely scarlet, and its body wasn’t very thick, but each wiggle carried a powerful force.
‘It looks like Snake Shapechanging.’
Marvin reacted.
‘This is the Snake Witch!’
‘Yes. The Snake Witch cannot bask under the sunlight, but perhaps when she is in a different form, the curse can be temporarily alleviated to some extent.’
‘So this is indeed the reason she was called the Snake Witch among the Anzed Witches. It was because her innate ability was to turn into a snake.’
‘She looks like she is in a good mood today.’
Marvin held back his desire to act immediately and silently waited for the scarlet viper to crawl over.
The viper’s movements were very graceful. It was now noon in Feinan, and some rays of sunlight were appearing, mostly bathing the poplar tree.
The scarlet viper looked at the sunshine, showing a strong longing in her eyes.
She quickly slithered over, but wasn’t able to notice that there was someone behind the poplar tree.
…
Closer.
The distance between the two was now no more than ten meters!
Marvin stayed calm, a serious expression flashing in his eyes.
‘Now!’
Snake-like creatures were very sensitive to movements of the air and warmth. Although his Hide was very powerful, as she got closer, the risk of him being discovered grew.
He didn’t want to waste his previous efforts.
In an instant, his silhouette burst out from the shadow!
The viper was still unhurriedly crawling through the pile of rocks. It had simply never occurred to her that there could be a frightening enemy hiding in her back garden.
Marvin burst out like lightning, flashing forwards as the snake flickered her tongue.
Marvin held Weeping Sky, piercing the spear’s tip into the viper’s vital and forcibly pinning her on the pile of rocks!
