Late at night in River Beach City, in a civilian area, in a small two-story house.

On the second floor, in a chaotic room, thick steam drifted out from the room.

In the room, a young girl was lying on the bed and constantly moaning, her complexion was sallow, and she seemed to have no vitality at all.

But with his eyes open, he looked very energetic.

"Father..." she whispered, "Am I dying soon?"

A big man sitting by the bed suppressed the desire to shed tears, and grabbed his daughter's hands vigorously:

"Lyle, don't worry, I have found a way to save you."

"You'll be fine, everything will be fine."

There was a third person in the room, who was also a very young girl. It could be seen from her clothes that her family background was very average. She also sat on the edge of the bed, looking at the seriously ill Lyle.

"Thank you, Sinni." Gru said in a low voice, "Thank you for taking care of Lyle while I was away."

"This is what I should do, Mr. Grew." Sinni showed a sad look: "Lyle is my best friend."

"It's my job to take care of her. But her body..."

Having said that, she turned her face away, as if she couldn't bear to look at Lyle.

This is Gru's house. As a low-level adventurer who has worked hard in River Beach City for half his life, it is not easy for Gru to buy such a house in the civilian area.

Tonight, Baron Marvin of the White River Valley gave him the book and told him that Mask of Two Swords would come to his house to find him.

It made him ecstatic.

My daughter finally has some hope. Even if the hope is slim, he will try it.

Steam in the house is a very ancient healing method that increases the temperature and humidity in the room and is said to be effective for various diseases.

Grew also invited a lot of doctors, but they were helpless to deal with Lyle's condition, so they could only use these methods which were better than nothing.

...

"Since you're back, I'll go back first."

After sitting for a while, Xin Ni, who was awakened by her sudden return in the middle of the night, said so.

Gru nodded.

He was just about to send his daughter's friend out, but at this moment, a figure suddenly broke in from the door!

"You can't go yet!"

bang!

A machete was pulled out and placed on Xin Ni's neck.

"What are you doing!?" Gru was startled and angry.

And Sinni started screaming - before she could make a sound, Marvin covered her with her hands.

Anyway, he was wearing [terrible gloves], even if the girl bit him, he wouldn't feel anything.

"What am I doing?"

"Perhaps you should ask her what she did?"

Marvin sneered and tore off Xin Ni's coat!

On her neck, a strange mark was revealed, which seemed to be a half-finished tattoo.

"I don't know what you mean. Sine is a good friend of Lyle's."

Gru said in a deep voice: "Mr. Double Mask, you let her go."

"Open the book in your hand. On page six hundred and seventy, you can see an illustration."

Marvin said coldly.

At the same time, Sinni's body trembled violently.

There was a look of fear in her eyes.

She began to try to struggle, but although Marvin's strength was mediocre, it was still very easy to subdue a little girl.

Under the threat of the machete, she stopped struggling in horror.

...

Gru hurriedly took out the book, and turned to the page that Marvin said.

In an instant, his face changed!

"You are a believer in the plague god!?"

"What's going on, Sinni?"

Gru was completely dumbfounded!

This book was found in Baron Marvin's study room. It is an ancient book handed down from his grandfather, which records the secrets of some heretics.

It naturally includes some records of the God of Plague.

Gru was not blind, he could tell at a glance that the tattoo on Xinni's neck, once completed, would be exactly the same as the mark in the book!

That represents the believer of the plague god!

They are a group of abominable human beings. They believe in the plague and spread the plague everywhere, but they themselves are invincible under the blessing of the God of Plague.

This kind of person is the most hateful.

Lyle, who was lying on the bed, didn't understand what happened at all. She tried to get up anxiously: "What are you doing?"

"Father, don't let this weirdo hurt Xin Ni."

Unmoved, Ma Wen directly stabbed Xin Ni in the back of the head with a knife.

The latter fainted.

"You crazy!" Lyle yelled angrily. A strange flush appeared on her face.

"Shut up!" Gru yelled sullenly.

Lyle was completely stunned. In her memory, her father had never spoken to her in such a tone.

"Sinney did it!"

Gru said with a worried face, "Sinni did your illness."

"What? It's impossible?" Lyle shook her head, but at this moment, she suddenly showed a very painful expression!

She covered her heart with her left hand, tears falling wildly. She grabbed the sheet with her right hand and tore the sheet!

It can be seen how serious this pain is!

Gru hurriedly hugged Lyle, and looked at Marvin for help.

Marvin took a deep breath and said to Gru, "If you want her to live, just listen to me."

Gru nodded vigorously.

At this point, he can only completely obey the arrangement of the double-knife mask.

...

The steam oven in the house was removed, leaving a huge brazier.

In the brazier, a strange plant was burning. The name of this plant is [Purple Stone Bud]. It is a kind of bitter grass with no nutritional value. Only the poorest people at the bottom will use it to raise livestock and so on.

When the purple stone buds burned, they would form a very choking purple smoke, but Marvin ordered Gru to close the doors and windows.

Then Lyall's limbs were firmly tied to the bed.

"Now, you can go out."

"Because of the next scene, you don't want to see it."

Marvin said calmly: “If you want to stay, you have to promise me that no matter what I do to your daughter, you can’t stop me!”

"Father, don't leave me! I don't want to be in the same room as this madman!"

Lyle yelled hoarsely.

Gru looked pained.

The double-knife mask has no reason to entrap himself. He gritted his teeth and came to Lyle's bedside: "Honey, believe me, although this gentleman is a bit unreasonable, he is indeed here to save you."

"You have to trust me. I love you. Honey."

After finishing speaking, he kissed Lyle on the forehead, then took a deep look at Marvin, and left the room.

...

Only Marvin and Lyle weeping alone were left in the room.

"You are a stupid woman."

"But you shouldn't be so stupid that your best friend didn't even notice that you did it?"

Marvin said calmly while taking out the emerald dagger from the void conch.

At this time, the purple smoke had spread all over the room, and Lyle even choked.

She was silent for a while, then shook her head and said, "Impossible, Sinni has no reason to do this."

"People are willing to do anything to survive."

Marvin came to Lyle and whispered, "Your father loves you very much."

Lyle looked at Marvin in pain: "What method do you want to use to save me?"

Snapped!

Before she finished speaking, Marvin tore off her blouse!

"Ah!" A scream came from the room.

Gru, who was standing outside the door, gritted his teeth, resisting the impulse, and finally held back.

It took a full hour, and various screams from Lyle came from inside.

Her voice even became hoarse afterward.

The veins on Gelu's forehead were throbbing, and he almost couldn't hold back how many times, and he was about to break into the door.

If Mask of Two Swords really did something to his daughter...

He couldn't imagine what would happen to him.

At this moment, the door creaked and opened from the inside.

The double-knife mask came out from inside, carrying a person on its shoulders.

"I took this woman away."

"Your daughter, there is nothing wrong with it."

"It's a bit frightening at most, you just need to comfort her. I think she needs to change her environment. River Beach City has not been very peaceful recently. She hangs out with those messy people all day, so it will inevitably be dangerous, what do you think? Mr Grew?"

Gru stared blankly at Lyle who had fallen asleep on the bed. Although she still looked haggard, she had fallen asleep peacefully.

You know, in the past period of time, she has never had a good night's sleep!

"What do you mean, Mr. Double Mask?" Gelu suddenly came to his senses.

Carrying Xin Ni on his shoulders, Marvin walked down the stairs quickly: "White River Valley is a good choice."

"The air there is nice, and the people are nice."

Gru saluted Marvin deeply and said:

"I see what you mean."

...

The night is getting darker, in an abandoned warehouse.

Crash!

A basin of water hit Xin Ni's face.

"Tell me where you usually preach or meet."

Marvin said coldly. (My novel "Night Ranger" will have more fresh content on the official WeChat platform, and there will also be a 100% lucky draw gift for everyone! Open WeChat now, click the "+" sign on the top right "add friend", search Official account "qdread" and pay attention, hurry up!)
