Night Ranger

Anna nodded.

Under Marvin's arrangement, all members of the guard team have been evacuated from River Beach City in batches.

The guards in River Beach City are tight, but also loose. There are always some unknown secret passages in the hands of different people.

In fact, before the patrols arrived from the docks last night, Marvin had bought a way of sneaking out of Riverbank from the old goblin.

A certain sewer system in the north of the city was once occupied by a corrosion monster. After the patrol team cleared it, they did not inspect it carefully.

As a result, in that lot, there was a secret passage entrance that was big enough for an adult to enter and exit.

The Black Claw Chamber of Commerce, where Bain belongs, controls this secret passage, and Marvin cooperates with him to send the members of the guard team out of River Beach City one by one.

They will take those light but valuable belongings and return to Green Village and other places first.

Neither Marvin nor Anna would question the loyalty of these team members, especially under the leadership of Andre, there would be no problems within the guard because of these properties.

...

"It's too dangerous to do this." Anna looked at Marvin with some reproach: "I know you hate him very much. He killed the old lord, and he deserves this fate."

"But what if the wizards find out?"

The half-elf housekeeper was worried. This morning, she was the one who sent the little girl back from Miro's family in person. As a result, in the afternoon, the major guilds issued arrest warrants offering a reward for the double-knife mask. It is self-evident who did it.

Presumably after going through this experience, the defense strength of the senior officials of the city hall will rise to a higher level.

"No." Marvin smiled lightly.

He didn't explain much.

People in this era are still full of awe for wizards.

After all, it was a group of people who ruled the world for an era.

This is also the reason why the law and order in River Beach City has always been very good. But that is past tense.

Marvin clearly remembered that half a year before the cataclysm, all the prophecy wizards lost their abilities.

This was just a sign, but the wizards didn't pay much attention to it. After all, the prophecy department has always been a bit mystical.

The essence of the fact is that the Lord of Time, who possesses powerful divine power, has banned part of the magic power in the universe magic pool, and that part of the magic power happens to be related to prophecy and time.

The gods have already begun to move secretly.

It was precisely because of this that Marvin let go. Because he knew that the wizards of the prophecy department could no longer find their traces.

And indeed it is.

As for Milo, the senior official of the city hall, he will not personally identify Marvin, because the transfer of the patrol team is a warrant issued by him himself, and he cannot allow himself to be stained with dereliction of duty.

At most, he secretly mobilized some forces to investigate and offered a reward for the double-knife mask.

What surprised Marvin was that when he went to the tavern to inquire about the news at noon, he actually heard that the patrol team had caught some cult members in the dock area!

"I heard that the priest of the [Plague God] was secretly holding some kind of ceremony, but he just happened to be bumped into by the patrol team in the rich area."

"Those people are really unlucky."

It was only part of Marvin's plan to dismiss the patrol team in the rich area. Who would have thought that they would actually catch a few heretics.

But it also reminded Marvin.

Whether it is the believers of [World Miserable Snakes] or [God of Plague] have already begun to become active in the south.

This means that the most chaotic era is coming!

He can't stop for a moment. The White River Valley must be recovered as soon as possible!

But before that, he had to act as the family of the "victim".

After all, after Uncle Miller died, Marvin was his only blood relative. This also means that the inheritance left by Miller will be inherited by him.

However, Marvin knew that although the city hall had sent a notice, the inheritance must have been looted by them before it was left to Marvin.

"Aren't these guys too much?"

"I thought they would just find an excuse, saying that the robbers had robbed all of Miller's family property, leaving me with only a box of ashes."

...

As the evening approached, Marvin changed into an aristocratic costume, and he looked like that weak and incompetent boy again.

He went to the town hall with Anna.

Sure enough, the official in charge of handling the inheritance formalities only handed over a land deed to Marvin, which was the proof of the house that Miller bought at No. 31 in the wealthy district.

The rest of the jewels, belongings, and the like, are not at all.

"Master Marvin, I'm sorry."

The official said something hypocritically.

Ma Wen pretended to be weak and asked: "Now my uncle is dead, and my only relative is gone."

"The guards of River Beach City, when can you send troops to help me clean up the group of gnolls?"

"I need to get my land back."

The official still laughed and said, "Well, it's very difficult."

"Master Marvin, look, River Beach City has been haunted by cultists recently, and there are also rampant killers, such as the double-knife mask who killed your uncle's family... Our manpower is seriously insufficient."

"I think it's better for you to wait patiently in the city for a while."

A look of disappointment appeared on Marvin's face.

He was secretly surprised.

It stands to reason that once Miller died, the officials in the city hall who were bribed by him should have no reason to prevent the army from dispatching troops to clear up the group of jackals.

After all, the White River Valley and River Beach City are not too far away, and having such a group of wolf men occupying them is also a threat to River Beach City.

But these officials are still trying to shirk.

"Could it be that Miller isn't the only one paying attention to the White River Valley?"

Marvin's mind was flexible, and he guessed the possible truth behind it all at once.

But he didn't intend to rely on the power of the River Beach City Patrol. The question just now is because it is a reasonable thing to do, and secondly, it is a test.

It seems that there are still some people with ulterior motives in River Beach City.

Marvin glanced at the task bar, the main task has not changed, it is still to regain the territory.

There are only 18 days left.

...

After leaving the city hall, Marvin immediately arranged for the next move.

After the murder, arson, and robbery last night, Marvin reaped quite a fortune from the Miller family. These wealth add up to at least hundreds of thousands of silver coins!

Among them, the ones that were easier to carry were taken away by the guards, accounting for about one-third of them.

For the rest, he sold them all to Bain of the Black Claw Chamber of Commerce at a low price as the double-knife mask.

The old goblin is cunning enough to know who to mess with and who to cooperate with.

Ma Wen had a murderous aura that he was very afraid of, so when he received the goods, he was very talkative and gave him a good price.

And last night, he also met two of Marvin's subordinates, both of whom were extremely powerful Phantom Assassins.

Those in their line of business naturally knew very well that they could mess with anyone, except assassins.

The old goblin expressed very enthusiastically that Master Two-knife Mask would be an important partner of their Black Claw Chamber of Commerce, even though the bounty for his head was worth a lot.

Ma Wen now has a total of more than 50 gold coins in his hands, which can be converted into small silver coins, which is more than 50,000.

This money is enough for him to organize a mercenary composed of low-level adventurers!

"Here are thirty thousand silver coins."

Marvin handed a pocket to Anna, and said solemnly: "Go to the Adventurer's Guild to choose, and you must have a formal occupation. Those with team battle experience are preferred, those with command experience are preferred, and those who bring their own weapons and armor are preferred." , fighters are preferred. There are about twenty of them. The rewards are up to you.”

The half-elf nodded.

He is very assured of Anna's ability, and it is most appropriate to entrust the recruitment of adventurers to her.

If he wanted to take back the White River Valley, he needed a team of troops, and it was not enough to rely solely on the guards.

"Master Marvin, what about you?" Anna asked.

"I?"

Marvin smiled: "I want to go back to the White River Valley first."

"Someone has to do some reconnaissance, doesn't it?"

...

On the east coast, on the Holy Light Pagoda, the sun shines in the west.

On the high platform, beside the rickety old man, a corpse lay there quietly.

Even an extremely weak legendary wizard is terrifying. Although he suffered an unimaginable sneak attack, he still killed this disciple who was controlled by the Snake Sect before he died.

It's just that he himself is on the verge of falling!

Although the Prince of Darkness is only a god with weak divine power, before becoming a god, he was a powerful legendary assassin!

Anthony closed his eyes, his face bruised.

A messy voice came from the Eye of the Sun, as if it was disturbed by something. Legendary wizards from other regions tried to teleport over, but they were also stopped by an inexplicable force field.

It's a conspiracy.

Anthony staggered to the edge of the platform. Looking down from this angle, whether it is the City of Sails in the north or Jewel Bay in the south, you can see it all at a glance.

What a beautiful scenery.

The old man stood there quietly and began to murmur.

Thirty seconds later, his body fell from the platform.

And a group of jet-black clouds quickly formed in the sky!

In an instant, all the kind-hearted creatures on the east coast suddenly felt a sharp pain in their hearts!

Some women with weak willpower couldn't help crying.

Everyone looked towards the east in shock.

The legend has fallen!
