The Void Pathfinder from the Demon Hunter World
Chapter 7: Overturn
When Marvin left the sewer, Tony, the former servant of the Vizima Palace, followed him.
When they were far enough away from Belhaven, Marvin turned and looked at the respectful young man, "Tony, I know what you mean, but you can't follow me, and I can't take you back."
"Your Highness..." Tony's face turned pale instantly.
Marvin is not omnipotent, he really can't lead people through. He is not even sure whether he can return to the demon hunter world in the next world. Maybe the Order Paradise will arrange other tasks...
But he can find a way to make Tony's life better.
"Listen, Tony." Marvin took out a dozen gold coins and stuffed them into the other's hand, "Take these with you, find another secret place, I will leave more for you, don't go back to be a slave. Understand?"
Tony lowered his head and said nothing. Obviously, not being able to go home was a big blow to him.
Marvin didn't know how to comfort people, so he could only continue to say: "Don't get too involved in Belhaven's affairs. That Nilfgaardian captain is not a very smart man. In 3 days, at most 5 days, this city will be destroyed by me."
"Ah!?" Tony didn't care about his sadness and looked up in confusion.
Marvin ignored his surprise and continued: "Call someone you are close to, take the money I gave you, and hide as far away as possible."
"Ah!?" Tony was even more confused.
The raven couldn't help it, jumped on top of Tony's head, and fanned his head with its wings. "Ah! Ah! Ah! You can do it!? Did you hear it! Did you hear it?"
"Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, I heard it, I heard it... Your Highness, your bird is really amazing..."
Marvin was speechless.
"You are the bird!" Raven fanned even harder, "Your whole family is a bird!"
Marvin grabbed Modus back, pressed him on his shoulder, and asked the former palace attendant: "Do you remember what I just said?"
Dongni has been in the Vizima Palace for many years. His Majesty Goydema and Queen Leanlun are both very good masters. He has long been accustomed to being obedient.
"Remember, Your Highness."
"Go to a place you think is safe first and hide the money..."
...
The place where Dongni hid the money was in a cave in the far suburbs west of Tyre City. There were still a lot of food and dried meat here. It can be seen that Dongni was well prepared and did not regard Belhaven as the last backer.
In his own words, Belhaven was just the best choice at the moment, and getting along with them was a no-brainer.
Dongni's slave life was actually not bad. The master was very tolerant, and he was not only smart but also literate. Because he had been a palace attendant, he was very good at serving people.
So Tony was highly valued and could rest for a few hours every evening, which gave him the opportunity to get to know the Behaven organization and join it.
After saying goodbye to the former palace attendant, it was already night, and the two suns in the sky were hidden behind the mountain.
Marvin first teleported back to the mountain peak of the origin of the coordinates, and spent more than an hour to find a cave on the cliff. After a simple tidying up, it was his temporary hiding place in this world.
Finally, there was a safe and hidden atmosphere, and then it was time for the box opening session that everyone loved to see.
No, I have to wait a while...
Unable to bear the entanglement of the curious raven, Marvin spent 5 minutes telling Moduscop the basic knowledge of game box opening, the metaphysical brain hole of the game planner, and his own shitty luck.
In order not to let this AI have too high expectations, and try to avoid being laughed at in case of a car accident.
One person and one bird stared at the treasure chest on the ground.
Click, the blue light instantly illuminated the dark cave.
"Flash, flash!" Modus fluttered for a while.
Marvin was very calm. It was nothing, he just didn't have such high expectations.
[You get 188 Paradise Coins and Primary Alchemy-Potion Branch. ]
It turns out that in addition to things, you can also get money when you open the box. Very good.
Paradise Coins were automatically added to the balance. Marvin took out the only scroll in the box, and the treasure box turned into a light spot and disappeared.
[Primary Alchemy-Potion Branch]
Category: Skill Scroll
Quality: Excellent (Blue)
Description: Unlock Level 1 Alchemy-Potion Branch.
[Tip: It was detected that Pioneer 00000027 obtained a skill scroll for the first time. Hereby explain that the skill scroll can only be used in the skill management hall. ]
Is that all?
In fact, he really wanted the necklace of Lady Carney, so that he wouldn't have to worry about being attacked by a hidden arrow in the future. It's a pity that he didn't get it.
Modus also saw the above information at the same time, and asked with his head tilted: "Is this considered good luck?"
Marvin rolled his eyes, "How should I know."
"Then you just told me so much, and I saved a file seriously, tsk..." Raven walked away with a pace.
Marvin: "..."
What can he do? It's his first time, and there is no reference.
Forget about opening the box for the time being. Marvin wrapped in a sleeping bag and took a nap in the cave for 3 hours, and then temporarily stored the X01 power armor, 4 nuclear warheads and other things here. Then teleport to the western suburbs of Tyr City and release Modus.
It is not difficult to guess that Behaven is short of food. In addition to the story of the first encounter with the four hunters, he has also seen the pile of parchment on Reglio's table, which contains the shift schedule of the granary guards.
Tyr City has several huge granaries that store food for the residents of the city, and the largest one on the west side of the city.
The guards of the granary were already lax, and it was early morning, and the missing city defense team last night did not make the city's defense tight.
The elves seemed not to like building city walls, such as the Beauclair City in Toussaint and the Tir Na Lia in Ain El.
Marvin took advantage of the cover of night and jumped over the roofs to the granary.
With Modus' aerial reconnaissance, the darkness, the thin wooden walls, and the rudimentary tiles could not block the Raven's view.
Stealing food goes smoothly, just teleport to the roof of the granary, open a hole and go down to get it. There was no one in the warehouse anyway.
Marvin stole not just once, but six times. He stole not just a ton, but nearly a hundred sacks, almost filling the cave where he was hiding.
…
Two suns rise from the mountains, reflecting the sparkling water in the river. The early-rising swallows pass over the white spiers, bringing with them the not-so-warm late summer southerly wind. Note①
The Awakening Palace in the south of Tir Na Lea, across the river from the city, is the royal palace of the Ain El Empire.
Three long bridges across the Seine River Valley connect the two sides and lead directly to the gate of the Awakening Palace, which is also the only way to enter the Awakening Palace.
More than half of the entire stone mountain on the south bank was cut off, and the palace was built on the section. Towering stone walls surrounded the entire Awakening Palace. There is a tower every few dozen meters on the city wall, and the palace guards can be vaguely seen among them.
The palace was quite peaceful, with only a few key points of guards wearing helmets and armor holding weapons.
Bang, an orange-red portal suddenly opened on the stone road in the garden, and the strong wind blew the branches swaying and falling leaves flying.
A gray-haired elf holding a wooden staff and wearing a complicated robe walked out of the portal. His face was thin, his cheekbones were prominent, and his hairline was tight, but this did not affect his handsomeness.
The most impressive thing is his gloomy eyes full of stories, and the few delicate braids on his temples show that he cares about his appearance.
He is the most respected Elf Great Sage, inheritor of the ancient blood, and the most powerful mage in the empire today, Crevan Espane aep Caomhan Macha, who is usually called Called Avallac'h.
Closing the portal, Avallac'h walked toward the front hall, then paused suddenly.
He felt unusual spatial fluctuations.
The status of mages in Ain El is very high and will not be restricted. Eighty percent of the empire's mages live in the imperial capital, and mages open portals to come or leave almost every hour. Therefore, the spatial fluctuations in the imperial capital are very chaotic.
But what Avallac'h felt was not the fluctuation of the portal, but the unique teleportation of Ancient Blood.
All the ancient bloodlines in the empire are now in the Red Cavalry, and they have been trained as navigators by him.
The navigators are stationed in the Cyrus Palace in the north and will not return to the imperial capital without orders. As far as he knew, no one had asked for leave recently...
Then who is this?
Let's talk about it later. We have to find His Majesty quickly. Eredin is hunting unicorns again.
Doesn’t that violent maniac with a mind full of killing know that they can’t live long even if all the unicorns die? What the hell.
The growth of the navigators was not as expected, and only Caranthir was pretty good. But that child was so aggressive that he was almost led astray by Eredin.
Sigh... When I came back this time, I found everything was terrible...
The emperor's addiction to narcotics was getting worse and worse, and he didn't care about anything. He didn't even leave an heir.
Eredin is ambitious and wants to control all the armies.
That idiot Illerith is dead.
The most optimistic Caranthir is becoming more and more alienated, alas...
Avallac'h sighed and hurried out of the garden.
…
The exchange of food and information with Reglio went smoothly.
When everyone saw dozens of bags of food piled on the simple dock, even the usually calm captain couldn't help but wave his fists.
After returning to the room, Marvin closed the door and said, "Promise me something and I will give you the same amount of food."
"What's up?"
"Take your people and leave the city of Tire as quickly as possible, as far away as possible. I will destroy this city within 4 days. If possible, persuade other rebels to leave too."
The four days were made up by Marvin, and he was trying to buy as much time as possible for the rebels.
To be honest, the hatred between Marvin and Ain El did not reach the point of annihilating the entire family.
He doesn't have the time or ability to lead a group of rebels to overthrow the Empire, but he does despise those pointy ears.
As far as he knew, this was not the first world that the Ain El clan had caused harm.
The elves rely on the ancient blood to wander in the void, and use a little magic advantage to enslave other races wantonly. They are ignorant, arrogant, lazy, selfish...
Just like a bunch of lost dogs, what is there to be proud of?
Since they are hostile, why not just help other races? The rebels here in the imperial capital can retain as much as they can.
Mr. Captain was shocked and froze in place again, but this time there was no Modus. He stayed on the ground to monitor what was going on in the city.
After all, if something happened two nights in a row, it was impossible for Tire City to not react at all.
Marvin was too lazy to continue persuading him. He waited for a moment and then spoke again: "Okay, give me the map. The food will be delivered later. It's up to you whether you want to or not."
Reglio still said nothing, but pulled out a large piece of parchment from under the leather mattress of the wooden bed.
Marvin turned on the illumination technique, looked at the map carefully, took photos with his naked eyes, and turned to leave.
The captain behind him then asked: "Can you really do it?"
Marvin looked back at him, didn't answer, closed the door and left.
…
Night, south bank of the Seine River, Awakening Palace.
A huge white candle as thick as an arm burned on a standing candlestick, bringing a gleam of light to the long corridor.
Exquisite stone carvings cast shadows of claws on the walls, and stone pillars with carved tops stand quietly on both sides of the corridor.
Click, click, click...
Neat footsteps sounded from far to near, and a group of well-armored royal guards approached, not noticing that the shadow at the top of the stone pillar was slightly darker than the side.
In the dark curtain, Ma Wen was using his hands and feet to rest on the carvings on the top of the stone pillar, waiting for the guards to leave.
Watching the guards turn away in the candlelight, Marvin teleported to the top of the next stone pillar to take a breath, and then the next one.
At the end of the corridor was his first goal tonight, the library.
It is not possible to blow up the palace yet. He doesn't know who the 12 assassination targets are or where they are. He doesn't know where the technical information of the Grand Gate is. He still doesn't know where the Grand Gate is.
If you want to find the answers to these questions, the greatest possibility is in the palace, and the library is undoubtedly a place you must visit.
If he couldn't find it within 2 days, he wouldn't mind having a good chat with Emperor Oberon.
But he didn't want to see either Avallac'h or Eredin, the King of the Wild Hunt.
With a slight click, Marvin stood in front of the carved mahogany door and stretched out his hand to try it.
The opposite black wooden door was pushed open silently. Not only was it unlocked, but the door axis made no sound at all.
You think about it, this is not a public library, why should the door be locked?
The map Reglio gave is correct, this is indeed a library. Rows of bookshelves line the large circular room in a star shape, with several desks in the center.
With the help of dim vision, Ma Wen quickly flipped through the books on the bookshelf one by one.
Law, folklore, legends, poetry, painting, architecture... not a single one of them is useful...
A few minutes later, he finally found a history book. Just as he was about to put it away in his inventory, the door behind him opened quietly.
The change in the air flow suddenly woke up Marvin. Just as he was about to teleport away, he found that the space was extremely solid and the familiar teleportation became extremely difficult.
Click, click, footsteps, a gray-haired elf walked into the library.
"I thought you were looking for treasure or killing a few people, but I didn't expect you were looking for books, so you came a little late." The gray-haired elf said softly, "Klevan Espin Aip Co Man Maca, you may also call me Avallac'h, Your Highness Amavit."
In fact, without him having to introduce himself, Marvin recognized the great elf sage at first sight.
His mind was spinning very fast, processing multiple pieces of information quickly and deducing the subsequent development of this matter.
In the future that has not yet happened, Ciri also came here, but was placed under house arrest and asked to mate with Emperor Oberon.
Then his life should not be in danger.
None of the Wild Hunt who had seen him came back and were all dead, so it was impossible for them to know him very well. No one even knows how those Wild Hunt riders and navigators died.
Considering Avallac'h's attitude towards Ciri, it should be possible to cause trouble, there is no need to fight now.
Fortunately, his mental attribute is now as high as 68, so he didn't burn up the CPU and smoke.
It took less than a second for Marvin to decide to adjust his plan.
As an actor, it’s not like I’ve never done anything before.
Marvin: "Modus, accident, I'm fine, stay nearby."
Modus: "Roger that."
After turning off the message panel, Marvin performed a fairly standard court ceremony. Even the king's father did not receive this treatment.
"Hello, Avallac'h, it's my fault."
The great sage was a little confused by this, it was different from what he expected.
But it was only for a moment. He quickly adjusted his mood and continued: "Since you don't plan to continue killing people, I think we can talk. For the sake of the atmosphere of the subsequent conversation, I need to take some precautions, okay?"
Marvin shook his head: "No."
Avallac'h continued to persuade: "Don't worry, I won't cause any harm to you. After all, you are considered one of us."
Marvin asked like a fool: "Really? You swear!"
Avallac'h was amused, "Haha... Okay, I swear as the great sage of the empire that I will never harm Prince Amavit." He asked helplessly, "Okay."
"Well, then. Who let me fall into your hands?" Marvin argued rather unconvincingly, "I was just careless."
"Yes, yes." The great sage coaxed the child and waved to the door.
Two Wild Hunt soldiers walked out of the darkness, took out an iron-gray metal shackle, and cuffed his right hand with a click, only the right hand was cuffed.
Marvin felt the magic energy in his body being wildly withdrawn from his cuffed right wrist, and veins popped up on his right forearm.
But that's it, the blue bar dropped to 55% and stopped moving. Obviously, the level of dark blue psionic energy is a bit high.
Blocking the magic golden shackles, he immediately judged what they were. But he has never worn the magic-blocking golden shackles, so he doesn't know what the experience is like under normal circumstances.
Therefore, Marvin could only pretend to be weak and uncomfortable when his magic energy was exhausted. No matter whether he looked like it or not, he was just uncomfortable.
"Sorry, it's really uncomfortable to wear the magic-blocking gold shackles, but I have to prevent you from opening a portal to escape, such as Mana Green Manor." Avallac'h said a little apologetically, "I have worn them too, and I got used to it after a while. ”
It turned out that in just one day, he not only checked the grain depot, but also found out about Baroness Nika, but he didn't seem to want to pursue it.
It turned out that he thought that Marvin could quickly travel back and forth between Tire City and Mana Green Manor through the portal.
Each bloodline inheritor of the Ancient Blood has different abilities, but they must have two skills: traveling through time and space and teleportation. The difference is that some people are strong and some are weak.
The stronger ones can teleport more times and at a longer distance, while the weaker ones can teleport less frequently.
Ciri, for example, is the daughter of fate. She can teleport almost infinitely, but her fighting talent is a bit poor.
The two Wild Hunt soldiers searched Marvin's body and took away the small leather bag on his waist that was used to cover up the facts, but was actually useless. They found nothing else.
Avallac'h checked the bag and looked up and asked, "Empty? It's not a magic bag. Don't you have anything with you?"
"It was originally a magic bag, but it was lost when I traveled through the world." Marvin lied with a look of annoyance, "I must have been cursed by something!"
"Then what weapon did you use to kill the soldiers in the manor?" Avallac'h continued to ask.
"A sword condensed by ice magic." Marvin continued to act, "If you don't believe it, you can unlock this thing. I'll show you."
If he really unlocked the magic-blocking shackles, he could really condense an ice knife, and the knife shape would be absolutely the same, except that it was a little short. He didn't believe that this great elf sage was also proficient in scar identification.
Avallac waved his hand, "Forget it, it's not important."
He walked to the desk in the middle of the library and sat down, waved his hand to light the candle, pointed to the chair opposite, "Sit down and talk."
Marvin pretended to be still very uncomfortable, walked over and sat down with weak steps.
