Chapter 151: Mark of the Eternal Night [Third Update!] 】
"How is this possible!"
"What the hell is going on?"
"Why am I so much older!"
Marven looked at himself in the pool in horror, and he tried to calm himself down!
Count jù panels!
He couldn't see his number panel anymore.
Marven was a little sure - could it be an illusion?
But what kind of illusion can blind you even to the jù panel?
He could feel that his life force was slipping away little by little.
Every time you take a step up the mountain, you get older.
Where is this endless mountain, it is clearly the mountain of death!
For the first time in Marven's heart, there was a suspicious feeling.
This is rare.
Since the time travel, he has been able to distinguish things with the help of various records on the number panel, no matter what the situation.
But on this strange Endless Mountain, he even lost the ability to view the number of panels.
What's going on here?
He looked up at the mountain, which was silent, still with no end in sight.
Marven rested for a while, barely recovering some of his body.
He paused for a moment by the pool, then finally gritted his teeth and made his decision.
; In any case, since you have chosen this path, you can only move forward, not backward.
Death does not retreat.
"I don't believe it, the Night Lord will set up a death level to deal with future generations!"
Marven let it go, he no longer cared about the continuous aging of his body, but climbed up step by step, with great difficulty.
……
Next to the fire. The old blacksmith has stopped striking iron.
The two of them looked at Marven's small figure with great heaviness, constantly climbing on that mountain!
This was also the first time they had seen the legendary Endless Mountain!
"This. Is it really true? O'Brien asked a little nervously, "Why do I feel his life force really going crazy!" ”
The old blacksmith was silent.
"I haven't read the record!"
"No one has come to Marvin's point."
"He does look like he's getting older, and he's going to climb for a while. He will become an old man with gray hair. ”
O'Brien said resolutely, "I can't let him die here. ”
"What if that's part of the test?" The old blacksmith asked rhetorically: "I know that it is a test, but in the face of the threat of death, especially watching myself grow old rapidly, this is something that few people can accept, right?" ”
"But what if this wasn't a test, but the Night King's punishment for breaking the rules before?"
O'Brien said with a frown.
The old blacksmith clenched his fists and did not speak again.
His eyes were full of worry.
Because he doesn't know either, what will happen next!
……
On the Endless Mountain, Marven is still climbing.
He had forgotten a thing in his mind, or rather. He's left everything else behind.
He only remembered one thing.
That's persistence.
This path is chosen by oneself and must be completed.
Even if it's risking your life.
Gradually, his body began to age faster.
After a while, when he rested again, he saw that his hair had turned gray.
His skin was wrinkled, his body was shrinking, and his bones were fragile.
As he continued to walk up, he had more time to rest.
Thankfully the mountain is not steep, some times. It's even gentle.
Otherwise, Marven, who was out of breath, would not have been able to move forward at all.
He dragged his old and fragile body, step by step, upward.
Gradually. A wonderful feeling rose from his heart.
His soul seemed to be detached from his body. He watched as his body slowly climbed upwards and then fell down the hill.
He wandered through the mountains, watching his corpse weather. The human skin fades, finally. Even the dry bones have turned into powder.
He became one with the mountain.
"Really, just dead?"
In the midst of a blur. He couldn't keep his head clear.
And yet he was still going up.
His soul is still trying his best, moving forward, never back.
At this time, a voice suddenly sounded in his heart:
What's the point? This kind of senseless persistence cannot succeed. ”
Marven was confused and didn't know how to answer him.
He just kept drifting upwards.
His attitude seemed to anger the powerful being in the dark.
A gust of wind blew his soul away!
Suddenly, he came to his senses.
The voice rang out again: "What's the point of that? ”
What's the point?
Marven silently thought in his heart: "Not every insistence must be meaningful." ”
"Now that you've made a decision, you have to go ahead."
His soul grew weaker and weaker, almost dissipating into the wind.
At this moment, a golden light suddenly appeared in the darkness!
A golden eagle spun down from the sky, and the heavens and the earth suddenly became bright.
For the first time in the entire Eternal Night Country, such a brilliance bloomed, and the feathers on the giant eagle's body shone brightly, and it lit up everything!
It flew down quickly and grabbed Marven.
In the next second, it flapped its wings and flew away into the sky!
The giant eagle led Marven through the thick clouds.
This time, every time he ascended a distance, Marven felt that his vitality was a little more.
His flesh returned, and then his hair returned to its original color, and his wrinkles began to disappear.
His mind became clear.
The giant eagle gently grabbed him, and he could easily see all kinds of scenery in the dark clouds!
Instead of the gray and gloomy imagination, the clouds were shining with colorful colors.
Marven couldn't see what it was, but he thought it was beautiful.
Passing through the final clouds, he looked up. I saw the top of the mountain.
"It turns out that the Endless Mountain has an end after all."
When he thought so. The giant eagle accelerated abruptly, then gently placed him on the top of the mountain.
He stood at the top of the Endless Mountain. Overlooking a qiē, a dark sea in the distance, silent.
At this moment, a pair of eyes lit up from the darkness.
Marven knew that it was the will of the Night King.
"Finally got the bet right!"
He looked at the qiē recorded in the number panel and clenched his fists excitedly!
……
Beside the fire, the two generations of leaders who have seen night walkers who have seen unknown how many winds and waves no longer know what to say.
They have lost track of Marven. From the moment the giant eagle came out, they knew that Marven had succeeded.
He was affirmed by the Night King.
Because of the giant eagle. They know.
He is one of the Night King's best companions.
After the Night Lord left, the Eagle entered the Land of Eternal Night forever. He swore to protect it forever.
"It looks like I'm not far from retirement." O'Brien laughed at himself, "You're right, he's really different." ”
"He's up to the position of leader of the Night Walkers."
However, the old blacksmith patted him on the shoulder: "It's not time yet. ”
"Marvin is our hope, he is the future."
"And you, are ours now. The current Night Walker and the Fernan, without you, have lost a very important pillar. You get the idea. ”
O'Brien nodded.
"Let's see how many miracles this kid Marven can create."
……
At the top of the mountain, those eyes and Marven looked at each other for a long time.
The deep voice sounded again: "You are my heir?" ”
Marven said seriously: "I don't know. It's up to you. ”
Eyes flashed. In the end, he said: "You have passed the test and inherited my things with qualifications." ”
In the next second, those eyes merged into one and turned into a strange mark. Blended into Marvin's chest.
His mind suddenly had some more memories of this imprint.
The name of this sigil is [Mark of the Eternal Night].
It is a status symbol for the true heir of the Night King.
With the Mark of the Eternal Night, he can freely enter and leave the Land of the Eternal Night!
And in the realm of eternal night, he can also summon the giant eagle Bellas to help.
What surprised him even more. The moment the Mark of Eternal Night entered his body, the Night King added a temporary blessing to him!
The effect of this temporary blessing is terrifying!
[Night King's Temporary Blessing: Strength +15, Constitution +15 (for 3 minutes)]
Only three minutes!
Marven, who has always been quick-witted, immediately understood.
The next second. He uses the Mark of the Eternal Night to quickly summon Bellas the Gianthawk!
At Marvin's call. The giant eagle swooped down. Marven took a stride and jumped onto the back of the giant eagle.
"Let's go to the Sea of Darkness!"
Marven stroked the soft feathers on the giant eagle's neck and said so.
Sou!
The golden giant eagle was like a sharp blade, splitting a qiē and flying towards the sea of darkness!
……
A minute later, the giant eagle landed on the beach.
On the edge of the beach, there is a heavy stone sword.
Through the mark of the eternal night, Marven knew the function of this sword.
"Two minutes to go......"
Strength and CON bonuses are time-limited!
He had to do it quickly!
Thinking of this, Marven immediately rushed to the edge of the stone sword, grabbed the hilt of the sword, and pulled it out fiercely!
This sword is very heavy, and without the fifteen points of strength that the Night Lord has added, it would be impossible for Marven to pull it out!
The stone sword has no attributes, and only has one special effect on it.
That's to split the sea of darkness!
Marven took a deep breath, and through the mark of eternal night, he could feel the stone sword responding to him.
In the next second, he rushed to the beach and slashed down with a sword.
The sea suddenly collapsed.
The waves of terror parted from both sides!
Petrified figures slowly rise from the sea!
Nineteen warriors who have been sleeping for an unknown number of years have finally awakened again!
The stone sword fell to the ground, and the warriors opened their eyes one after another, staring at Marven.
They fell to one knee, just as they had done with the Night King.
They may no longer have the legendary strength they had before they slumbered, but they are still invincible warriors.
Marven let out a long breath.
With these true warriors.
He won this battle!
……
"What?!"
"Baron Marvin of the White River Valley is not in the territory?"
In the cool carriage, a girl in a luxurious dress frowned: "If you don't want to see me, you don't want to borrow me, can you find such a lame excuse?" ”
"I really don't know what my father thinks, he wants to marry me to such a rural place!"
The knight outside the carriage said gently, "Miss, rest angry. This reason is indeed a bit too perfunctory, but the subordinates heard that this Lord Marven does seem to like to run around outside. ”
"It's impossible for us to disobey the order given by the master himself, so let's wait here for a while."
"Wait, wait, when are you going?" The girl said very unhappily, "If it weren't for that thing, I wouldn't want to come to such a ghost place!" ”
"Miss still needs a little patience." The knight smiled, "Lord Marven's grandfather stole the family's treasure and left Ravis alone. We searched a lot of places and couldn't find them. ”
"I didn't expect to find his descendants this time, so you must be careful."
"Either way, we must get that treasure back. So that you can give an explanation to the master. ”
The girl couldn't help but say, "Why don't we go and grab it?" ”
"Anyway, I don't think there are many people in this territory, and I don't think there are any masters. With our knights, we can take this castle very easily. Then look for it slowly. ”
The knight smiled dumbly:
"Miss, anyway, Lord Marven is also a descendant of the Creeland family."
"Although his grandfather made a mistake, it has nothing to do with him, and he probably didn't even know about it."
"Besides, in terms of blood, he is the closest brother to you."
"According to the family rules, it is also an ironclad fact that the two of you get married. Are you really going to storm your fiancé's castle? ”
The girl was silent, and could only pound the carriage cushion with her fists.
It was at this time that a man walked past the convoy and looked at them curiously.
The girl shouted unhappily: "What are you looking at!? ”
Marven was stunned: "My territory, can't I look at it?" ”
