Early in the morning, in the dense forest on the side of the castle.

A figure shuttles through the forest.

Whoosh!

One by one, black shadows flew out of Marven's hands!

Ding Ding Ding!

All the black shadows hit the white circles on the trees in the dense forest.

But some are more precise, while others are at the edge of the circle.

After throwing away a set of darts in one go, Marven stopped and meticulously checked the battle record.

"Of all the hidden weapons, darts are the easiest to master. But my hit rate is still a bit low. ”

"Hit has something to do with strength, although my agility is good, but I rarely use long-range weapons, and it's normal that all hidden weapons can't be practiced for a while."

"But if it goes on like this, it should be able to rise to 3o points after a while."

Marven silently looked at the [Hidden Weapon-Dart 24] on his personal skill list and wiped his sweat.

In the Crimson Monastery, the strongest thing he harvested was naturally the power of the dragon. However, this "Detailed Explanation of Hidden Weapons for Beginners" is not bad, and Marven learned three hidden weapon skills from it.

They are [Hidden Weapon-Dart (24)], [Hidden Weapon-Throwing Knife (5)], [Hidden Weapon-Flying Needle (5)].

In addition to the darts, the other two hidden weapons, even if Marven basically used skills, they were all lost blindly.

This is also the result of Marven using the noble talent specialty [Quick Study]. His talent for secret weapons is very ordinary, so he chose the easiest one to learn.

Because he was reluctant to throw his valuable skill points to the hidden weapon, Marven insisted on using darts to practice every morning.

Each set of twenty darts is practiced for thirty rounds a day. Twenty rounds in the morning and ten rounds in the evening.

Under such a high-intensity connection, Marven's dart ability has risen rapidly. After all, the agile foundation is there.

But the hidden weapon is a ranged attack weapon after all, and it is not as high as the progress hit.

For those who like to wear a shirt, 2

In addition to practicing darts, Marven's strength has also improved by killing a large number of gnolls in previous battles.

In the battle to recover the White River Valley, Marven gained a total of 2,194 killing experience points, counting the experience given by the earth spirits.

He has already reached the level 5 Ranger and meets the conditions for advancement, but if he wants to upgrade to a level 6 Ranger, he must invest 48oo experience points.

Obviously, the Jackals are no longer able to meet Marven's need for upgrades.

So he thought about it for a while, and simply extracted a thousand of the killing experience points and threw it on the [Shadow Cutter].

As with [Throat Cutting], since Marven repeatedly uses this standard technical move in combat, he can pay Kill XP to turn it into his own personal skill.

Shadow Cut + Throat Cutting is the Phantom Assassin's signature combo skill, second only to the Death Strike.

After Marven put in 1,000 XP points, he added one more item to his list of personal skills:

【Shadow Cut-off (3O)】

It's normal to not have a high throat cut, although Marven has practiced it when he played the game, but he doesn't have such a high skill as throat cutting, so he can't imitate it completely accurately. However, the shadow tangent step of 3o points is also enough.

Now Marven can use powerful assassination skills such as [Stealth] or [Hide] + [Shadow Cut] + [Throat Cutting].

These skills allow him in assassination abilities, not inferior to thieves in the direction of assassins. And his frontal combat ability is far from that of an ordinary ranger, coupled with his rich combat experience, even if he doesn't have the power of the dragon potion, Marven is confident to challenge the second-order master.

Bang Bang Bang! The darts continue to fly out.

Time passed minute by minute, and soon, he lost all the darts in his hand again.

On the surrounding trees, a circle of darts is densely inserted.

This is the last round of practice for the day.

Marven put away all the darts and trotted all the way into the castle through the side door.

……

It was the fourth day since the White River Valley was reconquest.

As Marven expected, the repulsed Punishment Knight didn't come back to trouble. And some ill-intentioned people in Riverbeach City seemed to be shocked by Marven's courage. For the time being, they haven't moved.

But Marven knew that even if they had ideas, they could only come secretly.

This is the era before the cataclysm, the era of the Wizarding Alliance, except for the assassination or something, the rest is okay.

And those gnolls, after being completely expelled, the White River Valley gradually began to regain its former weather.

Anna took half of the garrison and worked tirelessly to go from house to house to Green Village, Misty Village, Panshui Lake and other places to bring back the residents of the territory who had been frightened by the gnolls.

The village under the castle gradually became popular, and the abandoned farmhouses were restored, and the peasants began to return.

Craftsmen and craftsmen also returned to the castle with their children.

The current White River Valley is no different from the rest of the territories, and the core is naturally the lord and the people around the lord.

Marvin and Anna live in the depths of the castle, while they are guarded by a guard outside.

Then there is the outer part of the castle, where various craftsmen and craftsmen live, and their children are apprenticed to become tailors or masons in their parents' trade.

And at the foot of the mountain, most of them are ordinary farmers. There are also some traders, but these cunning fellows tend to work part-time as thieves.

If viewed from above, Marvin's castle is surrounded by cliffs, with only a grove on the side.

To the south, there is a separate stone bridge, and below it is a specially dug canal that brings in the water of the White River, which is very deep, and in which some upside-down spears are planted.

Most of the people who fall into the water do not end well.

Beneath the castle were farmhouses, which were fairly separated from each other, and there were large areas of barren farmland where it was difficult to grow crops other than wheat or okra.

The White River in the distance is like a belt, hanging on the vast but not so rich land of the White River Valley.

Standing on the walls of the castle, you can also see the mines to the north.

The White River flows around the White River Valley, and to the west of the northern mine, there is an abandoned wharf.

This is the White River Valley.

A barren rural place.

But it is a place that Marven must protect with his life.

The morning sun rises slowly. People get to work.

Fortunately, Marven drove away the jackals in time, otherwise the summer planting would have been delayed, and in that case, the White River Valley, which was already very problematic in terms of food, would have been even worse.

"It's time to work."

Marven had some breakfast, changed his clothes, and returned to his study.

Anna was already waiting there.

After successfully recovering the White River Valley, Marven fulfilled the boy's wish, and the last fragment of his soul dissipated.

But the oath he made to the boy still did not change.

He will guard this place. He also fully believes in his ability to do this!

Once you've earned 1,000 generic XP points, there are no more quests in your quest slot.

This came as a surprise to Marven, but that's not what he's most concerned about at the moment.

……

"Food problems? I'll fix this. ”

Facing Anna, who was a little anxious, Marven said softly.

While he was talking to Anna and learning about the situation in the territory, he kept holding the quill in his hand and skillfully laying out one command after another.

The White River Valley under reconstruction has too much to deal with.

But Marven is very good at it. Although he was not an administrative officer in his previous life, his brain was extremely flexible, and if he couldn't manage this small place in the White River Valley, he would be a traverser in vain.

He issued five lord's warrants in one go.

The first is the recruitment order for the White River Valley Garrison, which includes subordinate villages, and all men of appropriate age can participate in the recruitment. This part is mainly responsible for Andrei.

Marven is preparing to expand the size of the garrison, twenty people is too little, for the White River Valley, which has a population of nearly 2,000, the garrison needs at least fifty people.

Now Marven is not short of funds, and the gold nuggets he brought out from the Scarlet Monastery are enough to feed a garrison of fifty people for many years.

The second is an order to encourage residents to develop animal husbandry. Ma Wenxian, the southern pasture of the White River Valley, is particularly suitable for grazing. Before, because of the threat of beasts and gnolls, it never showed. Now Marven is ready to vigorously show his territorial force, which should be guaranteed. All farmers who graze cattle have a certain allowance.

The third is to recruit artisans, craftsmen and merchants. They can breathe life into the territory.

Article 4, which is also a recruitment order, is aimed at professionals, especially those with military experience. Marven needs some guys with command talent or adventure experience to lead the new recruits with the guard. This recruitment order gave quite a generous reward, and even Gru and the others were a little moved.

The fifth is the order of amendment. Marven hopes to bring in some people from some farmers or craftsmen to repair the abandoned wharf on the White River.

This is a big project, and it is time-consuming and laborious, which is very unwise in Anna's opinion.

But Marvin has his own reasons. At his insistence, all five decrees were promulgated.

The White River Valley shook for a moment. Lord Lord, it's been a long time since there have been so many moves in a row.

……

This is a very exciting thing.

Marven could feel the change.

The next day, when he stood on the city wall, there was a positive aura on the faces of the people coming and going.

It gave him a special sense of satisfaction. This is different from slashing monsters and killing people, it is a completely different level of achievement.

At this moment, there was a burst of bagpipes in the distance.

Marven looked at it, and it turned out to be music coming from the bread-making mill in the castle.

The melody was familiar, and in the depths of Marvin's memory, he knew the name of the song.

"The Awakened White River".

There was a smell of aroma from the bakery, and the river in the distance was sparkling with mercury.

Marven took a deep breath.

So wonderful.

……

However, at this moment, there was a sound of footsteps behind him!

Anna's anxious voice followed:

"Master Marven! Oh no! ”

"Master Pooh, who was cursed at the Margor Academy, is now bedridden and in a coma!"

Marven Huo Ran turned around and clenched his fists!
