Chapter 32: The Singing in the Secret Passage
In the tunnel, Marven relaxed his body with palpitations.
"I almost got there!"
"Thankfully, the slightly taller gnoll beside him obscured his vision!"
"If it is really revealed, it will be troublesome, so many gnolls, and mutant coyotes, even if they are hiding, they can't escape."
Marven was really scared this time.
He had no idea that a warlock would be born among the gnolls.
They are not kobolds, they have the blood of dragons on their ancestors, how could they give birth to such a rich and handsome profession as warlocks?
Marven couldn't figure it out.
However, in the world of Fernan, there are no surprises, since there is a second-order warlock in this group of gnolls, then their threat has increased by one level.
Marven has to make a special target to have a chance of winning.
After all, a powerful warlock is very powerful in supporting his partners on the battlefield.
The profession of warlock, limited to blood, has always been a second-rate profession in the wizarding era; But after the Cataclysm, because their spells have nothing to do with the cosmic magic pool, they are not negatively affected, and they also become easier and more powerful because the chaos magic enters Fernan's big 6.
In the aftermath of the cataclysm, Warlocks are the group that benefits the most.
Marven remembered that in the southwest near the Rocky Mountain, the group of demonic sorcerers exiled by the sorcerers had succeeded in establishing a powerful kingdom after the cataclysm.
Although this kingdom has only been standing for less than three years, if it were not for the targeting of a few gods, I am afraid that it would have been entrenched in the south.
The leaders of that kingdom are three powerful apocalyptic sorcerers.
That is, the [Three Sisters of Destiny] who are talked about among players, all of them are as beautiful as flowers.
The gnoll warlock that Marven encountered in the White River Valley was naturally not as powerful as the most powerful apocalyptic warlock, but it should not be underestimated.
He noticed that the other party was always using the [Eye of Pain] spell, which meant that the other party was very vigilant.
It also shows that his spells are very powerful. The Eye of Pain is constantly draining his energy, but the fact that he has been able to hold it up shows that his intelligence is very high.
Such a guy is completely the nemesis of a stealthy unit like Marven.
If Marven is a thief in this life, he will really be wasted!
Thankfully he's not!
The good thing about the Ranger is that even if the stealth is restrained, the melee ability is quite good.
Marven rested in the tunnel for a while and prepared to return.
As he passed by the fork, there was a faint singing sound from behind the stone that blocked the entrance.
This singing voice is very soft, if it weren't for the fact that there was no one in the secret passage, and Marven's hearing was also good, I am afraid that he would not be able to hear it.
"What's that?"
Marven's heart jumped, and he tiptoed his ear to the stone.
The voice gradually became clear, as if it was sung in a very old language. Marven listened attentively for a while, and then suddenly realized that this was the language of the Anzedi people!
The Anzedis are a race that has died out in history, they are the origin of the wizards, but they have disappeared into the long river of history.
Generally speaking, many places in Feinan tacitly consider themselves to be descendants of the Anzedi people.
On important occasions, such as rituals such as sacrifices or funerals, there are special elders who are responsible for praying in the ancient language of the Anzedi people.
But ordinary people can't speak, and can't understand the ancient language of the Anzedi people.
But Marven understands!
He looked through the knowledge of the aristocratic profession, and suddenly appeared [Anzedi Ancient Language].
Suddenly, he felt that the profession of nobility was 10,000 times stronger than that of commoners. Not to mention practical abilities such as equestrian accounting, he is also proficient in various rare languages!
In the previous life, in the game, only a few players mixed with the aristocratic profession, and Marven was not interested in it, so he didn't know the secret.
In this life, he directly crossed into the body of a nobleman, and finally realized the benefits of this life profession!
He listened attentively, and now the voice that looked like a man and a woman sang only four sentences repeatedly:
"One flower, two flowers, the demon king won't go home tonight."
"The rain was loud, the thunder was loud, and I sat in the well and wept."
"The white-clothed sacrifice, the black-clothed sacrifice, the midnight bell does not stop."
"Those who have passed away have not passed away."
……
The voice was very terrifying, and the more Marven listened to it, the more frightened he became!
Those four lines of singing kept echoing in his mind for a long time!
He jerked himself and removed his ears, and the voice gradually became quieter, and he came back to his senses.
"What's in there?"
The terrible singing just now shocked Marven, who has always been bold, into a cold sweat.
That indescribable feeling......
"Is it a dreadful spell?"
Marven frowned, lowered his head and checked the number of records, but did not find the fear test and other related processes.
Moreover, he is wearing [Valissa's Gift], and his fear resistance has increased by 1o points, and ordinary charm and fear magic are not effective against him at all!
But that fear is from the bottom of my heart!
It wasn't a fear spell, it was just that this kind of singing seemed to cause some kind of resonance in his blood.
"Is this a treasure or a monster?!"
Marven looked behind the stone with an ugly face, and finally lifted his spirits and put the matter behind him for the time being.
He had to concentrate now, not be distracted by these things, and the strange singing in the secret passages would wait until the White River Valley was recovered.
……
Almost out of the secret passage, Marven returns to the farmhouse and unties the frightened Lola.
"What do you want to do?"
The girl suddenly became extremely frightened. She sat there thinking about it for a long time, and couldn't think of any reason why this vicious creature would let her go.
What will this guy do with himself?
First * rape * and then kill? Or is it like those gnolls, just wipe it out with a knife?
Lola thought about it a lot. Later, the more I thought about it, the more unconvinced I became, no matter how bad I was, I wouldn't be on the same level as the jackals, right?
That must be the former.
As soon as she thought of this, she instantly became even more frightened.
So when Marven untied her, the girl suddenly broke out with an unprecedented struggle - but was quickly pressed down by Marven.
"If you don't want to die, don't move."
The scimitar rests on the neck. Marven's voice was unusually cold.
Perhaps still affected by the singing, the tone of his voice was a little cold.
Lola was so frightened that she trembled, and the little courage she had just burst out was gone.
"Count my life hard."
She simply closed her eyes and waited for fate to come.
Who knew that at this time, Marven asked her very strangely: "What are you doing?" ”
"Huh?" Lola opened her eyes in confusion.
Marven said lightly: "Ready, I will take you through the blockade of the gnolls and return to Riverbeach City." ”
……
If Marven is alone, crossing the blockade of the jackals, it is naturally very easy.
Now it has brought a burden, but it is a lot of trouble.
Lola doesn't have any professional abilities at all, but not only can't help in battle, but also drags Marvin back.
Fortunately, Marven was resourceful and carefully figured out a way to lure away the coyotes guarding the vital area, and then left the White River Valley with Lola.
Three days later, when Lola was standing outside of Riverbeach City again, she felt ecstatic.
It's finally back to civilization!
In the dungeons of the White River Valley, she didn't suffer from the filthy gnolls!
Every day, it is possible to be eaten alive or braised and steamed, and not everyone has the opportunity to experience it!
Lola almost didn't cry for the rest of her life.
"Thank you very much." She said to Marven sincerely.
The guy in front of him, although extremely vicious, doesn't look as bad as he imagined......
Marven wore a mask, groaned slightly, and suddenly asked, "Do you know the way to Gem Bay?" ”
"Huh?" Lola was taken aback.
"I know you're not the daughter of some Chamber of Commerce owner, and I know you're just a liar."
"But I've decided to give you a chance."
Marven took out a money bag and handed it to Lola: "There is some money in here, enough for you to go to Gem Bay, or even back and forth, and there is some surplus that you can use to hire people to protect you, or to make some channels." ”
"I need your help with something."
Lola looked at Marven in surprise.
"Do you know my details?" She looked at Marven suspiciously: "Is it the lord of the White River Valley who sued you?" Are you his man? ”
Lola's mind is spinning fast.
Marven didn't explain: "Almost." ”
"Then why would you believe me?" Lola held the money bag, and her heart suddenly had mixed feelings.
"I just think you may not have shown up yourself, you didn't want to be a liar in the first place."
Marven said lightly: "Maybe you're not that bad." ”
"I'm willing to give you a chance."
