Night Ranger

The second item is a test of footwork.

Marvin was taken into a special room, which had only two doors with a certain distance between them.

All Marvin needed to do was cross the room in fifteen breaths.

Obstacles in the room are key.

Ma Wen looked at the densely packed space inside, expressionless on the surface, but confident in his heart.

Each exploding mushroom moves very slowly.

You don't even need to step on it, as long as you get close to a certain range, it will automatically explode.

This is a very dangerous creature.

What's even more frightening is that once an exploding mushroom explodes and the air wave spreads to nearby mushrooms, the second mushroom will also explode.

In other words, as long as you don't dodge one step, you will be greeted by explosions all over the room!

Many people basically gave up when they saw this level.

The explosive force of the exploding mushroom is very strong. With the assassin's weak body, if he is hit by a chain explosion, he will definitely go in vertically and come out horizontally.

This is a great test of the challenger's mental quality, footwork, reflexes, and speed.

Above the room, there are still many spectators.

They wanted to see how Marvin, who had easily defeated the quasi-fourth-order powerhouse, could pass this level.

Of course, if Marvin had the misfortune to step on an exploding mushroom, they might applaud.

After all, no assassin wants other professions to pass multiple challenges of the King of Assassins.

This is simply slapping the entire assassin profession in the face!

"can we start?"

The staff were still chattering about the details, reminding Marvin of the risks he was about to face, but the latter asked impatiently.

The staff froze for a moment. Immediately with a cold face: "It's fine."

"I'll wait for you at the other exit of the room..."

However, before he finished speaking, Marvin had already rushed out!

His figure is like lightning. Passed directly between the slow-moving exploding mushrooms!

Every step he takes is firm and powerful. Just right.

Hurrah!

After just three breaths, Marvin's figure appeared at the exit of the room!

Exploding mushrooms throughout the room, safe and sound.

The staff opened their mouths wide, watching all this in disbelief.

The people above the room were completely speechless.

This speed... They have already seen that Marvin's agility definitely exceeds 25 points. Because just passing through the room, the superficial traits have already been revealed.

But if you want to pass this level, 25 points of agility is not the most important.

What matters is Marvin's terrifying judgment and experience.

Coupled with the addition of the same exquisite footwork to arrest magic, he passed this level. It's as simple as drinking water and eating.

Passed the second level successfully.

Marvin's dagger control has once again increased by one level, reaching a level.

...

The third level, secret room escape.

This level is also very dangerous for ordinary people.

The challenger is strapped to a fixed chair with his hands tied behind his back. Outside of him is a locked cage.

These are arranged in advance.

When the challenge started, water would flow into this room continuously, submerging the entire iron cage.

If the challenger can't escape the bondage in a short time and escape from the iron cage - there is only one end for him. That is to be drowned alive.

Escape is also an essential skill for the King of Assassins.

The challengers were told in advance that it would take about half a minute to submerge the chair and about two minutes to submerge the cage.

That is, if you fail to escape the cage within two minutes. Either throw in the towel or die.

The cage is locked, which means you'll need great lockpicking skills. Of course, the premise is that you can escape the bondage of the chair first.

Marvin can't pick a lock. Likewise, he did not come to deal with the tied rope.

But he has previous life experience. But he knew that there was a loophole in this level.

He chose to start the game without hesitation.

Under the silent eyes of everyone, the water began to pour into the room quickly.

Marvin looked calm. His hands behind his back were shaking rapidly.

Soon, the water flowed over Marvin's stomach.

However, at this moment, he suddenly stood up from the chair!

Everyone shook their heads silently.

They were no longer surprised by this result. This ranger is definitely coming prepared!

But for Marvin, getting rid of the rope is actually not a difficult task. Even without the help of the bone shrinking technique, he can easily untie it.

The Master of the Dark Night in his previous life did not gain his reputation in vain. He didn't even have such manual work. It was impossible for Marvin to achieve such a high achievement.

The next step is the key.

The water has already flowed over his head quickly, even if he has lockpicking props, he still has to work in the water!

What's more, he didn't!

He is not a thief, not an assassin, and he has not learned lockpicking skills.

But he knew another way out.

In full view, Marvin swam down quickly. He soon came to the entrance of the water. It was a cylindrical water inlet sealed off by an iron grating.

He held his breath tightly, groped on the fence for a while, and pulled it suddenly, and even pulled the fence down!

Although his strength is not top-notch, this iron fence is actually a decoration in itself.

In the next second, he didn't hesitate anymore, and went straight into the water inlet!

Ten seconds later, with the sound of splashing water, Marvin came out of a pool directly outside the house.

He was wet all over, and his face was slightly pale.

However, the eyes of everyone looking at him have turned into admiration.

"What? The third level, count me as passing?"

He looked at the bewildered staff member.

The latter was simply dumbfounded.

Before Marvin, he had never seen such an escape!

He had seen many master lockpickers trying to open the complicated locks outside the iron cage with a simple iron wire, but no one thought of it. The iron cage door is not the only exit.

"He's cheating!"

Someone in the onlookers shouted.

The staff hesitated for a while, and carefully took out a manual.

"Assassin King Challenge Rules".

He read it carefully for about six or seven minutes. Only then did he seriously say: "Well, the above did not say that this method is not possible..."

"So. The third level, you passed."

Marvin cracked a smile.

The control of the dagger continued to improve, soaring to the next level!

You know, after a battle with the Sword Master of the Starry Sky, Marvin's scimitar control broke through and reached the first level.

As for the dagger control, improving so quickly is simply cheating.

But there's no way around it, who told him to play this line of work in his previous life?

...

The fourth level begins. The King of Assassins challenge is no longer open to the public.

Because of the fourth level, yes!

The League of Assassins will choose a suitable character who is being offered a bounty and ask the challenger to assassinate him.

If the assassination is successful, the challenge is successful.

It's just that Marvin directly chose to give up this level.

His choice surprised the staff.

We have already come to this point, how can we just give up and give up?

You know, once you can get through the five levels, you can get the title!

Although it may sound strange for a ranger to be titled King of Assassins, it is still a supreme honor.

Marvin was very straightforward. It is too much effort to assassinate a strong man. What's more, there is still the fifth level. He doesn't think he can pass the fifth level now.

As for the title of King of Assassins, although there are many bonuses, Marvin doesn't have those skills. So it doesn't help either.

He has not forgotten why he participated in this challenge. Now that the goal has been achieved, it is the right way to retreat in spite of difficulties.

...

Shadow Valley. A reception room.

"Congratulations, Mr. Marvin. You have passed the three items of the Assassin King's challenge, as you requested. This pass is yours now."

One-eyed Bird handed over a pitch-black pass to Marvin.

Along with the pass, there are three small medals.

Each medal represents a progress in the challenge of the King of Assassins.

If Ma Wen is interested in the future, he can hold these three medals and directly participate in the challenge of the fourth level.

"However, I need to remind you that the city is full of dangers, and few people can come back from that kind of ghost place alive."

Bird said so.

Marvin nodded.

For people on the surface, the underground world is indeed very scary.

But for Marvin, who is experienced and has dark vision, as long as he is careful not to provoke some metamorphosis and strong creatures, it is still very safe if he is just on his way.

After getting the pass, Marvin was ready to say goodbye.

Who knew that at this moment, One-eyed Byrd suddenly said:

"Mr. Marvin, your performance in the King of Assassin's Challenge was very good, which made a friend of mine very interested in you. He has a matter and wants to entrust you to do it."

"I wonder if you are interested?"

"We'll pay you a lot."

Marvin was stunned for a moment, and immediately the contents on the bulletin board outside Casamuel appeared in his mind.

"You mean about hunting white deer?"

"Isn't the saint of your Bai people responsible for this matter?"

Ma Wen asked with some surprise: "Why do you need me, an outsider, to take action?"

"Because the saint is a fake."

An old voice came from outside the door.

Then an old man walked in slowly with the help of a young maid.

Byrd showed a look of respect: "My lord priest."

The old man nodded to Marvin, "This is Viscount Marvin, right? He is as young as the legend says."

Marvin got up and simply returned the salute.

After the two sides talked for a while, Marvin realized that this old man was actually the high priest of the Bai people, who served the Holy Spirit White Deer.

"Half an hour ago, we found the body of Saint Monica in a sand dune."

"Obviously, the one who appears in Kasamuel now is a fake."

"Someone continues to hunt the white stag. We must stop this, and unfortunately, the key clue we have found is hidden in a place that our people cannot infiltrate."

"So I need your help."

Ma Wen pondered for a moment: "To be honest, I don't have much time..."

"You can listen to our reward first." The one-eyed Byrd obviously has a close relationship with the high priest. He looked into Marvin's eyes and said:

"A fountain of youth."

Marvin took a deep breath and said firmly:

"make a deal."

... (To be continued..)

ps: The fourth update is here! Keep working hard! There will be a fifth update in a while!
