Chapter 189: Duel [Fifth Update]

The hermit looks like an ordinary middle-aged human.

He is believed to have lost both legs in the battle with the Dark Ghost, so he can only walk on a pair of crutches.

But that didn't make him look like a weakling in the slightest.

Marven felt a powerful aura from him, he was like a beast that had been silent for a long time, it seemed that he had lost his fire, but as long as something ignited it, he could still burst out with great power.

Being able to survive from the distant barbaric era to the present, even if his bloodline is in the former Alien Plane, it should be a high-level bloodline among the immortal species.

Once a person has lived for too long, he can naturally see a lot of things, and no matter how stupid a person is, he may become a wise person, not to mention that some people are very smart themselves.

According to Marven's understanding, the hermit who stayed in the dark region should be the one who guarded the seal of the Frozen Spring.

He hated the Dark Ghost Clan to the core, as they would destroy his world.

He had little affection for Fernan, but he didn't want to see the Dark Ghost run amok in the land.

It's just that now, his attitude is a little strange.

……

Marven hesitated for a moment, but finally said calmly: "No matter what, someone has to stop it." ”

"I hope I can get your help."

The hermit looked at Marven meaningfully: "Young man, have you ever thought that disasters will never be extinct. When you save the world once, it's likely that the next crisis is imminent. ”

"You alone can't save them allβ€”and it's not your job in the first place."

"Why don't the people who disrupt the order solve these problems themselves? If the Cosmic Demon Pool still exists, the Frozen Spring Seal will not be damaged in the slightest. The power of the Night Lord does not fade either. ”

Marven's expression also became a little strange.

He knows something inside. Especially after Ambella invaded his dream realm before, he and Lance had a conversation.

It was from that conversation. He learned that the gods were attacking the cosmic magic pool. It turned out to be what Lance meant!

The hermit had a thorn in his words, and he obviously knew this.

He was actually directly accusing Feinan's creator god?

Marven frowned slightly: "Do you think someone is using me?" ”

The hermit shook his head: "I don't know where you came from, but I guess it must be someone who has experienced despair to have an unusual mind." ”

"Of course I can borrow the Demon Suppression Sword, but I see some ...... in you Unspeakable shadows. ”

"So I can't help but remind you: there are some things that you may feel as a gift; But for others, you're just a pawn. ”

"You should think more about the meaning of life."

Hearing this, Marven suddenly laughed:

"Before I think about the meaning of life, I have to think about survival."

"You're right. Some things aren't my responsibility, but somebody has to step up and do it, doesn't it? ”

"I may not be a very noble person, but even if I want to live well for myself and the people around me, I must go all out to fight in this era of catastrophe."

"As for the meaning of life, I want to wait for the dust to settle, and it will naturally fall into place."

The hermit smiled indifferently, as if he regarded Marven as a hot-blooded young man.

He didn't want to say more, so he directly handed a huge box to Marven.

Contained in a box. It's the sword of demon slayer.

In the hermit's calm words, Marven learned how it was used.

This weapon was made by the hermit who gathered the power of the entire world before his world perished.

It has been used several times. It currently has two uses remaining. When the number of uses is up, the Demon Slayer Sword will eventually disintegrate.

After Marven understood the usage, his face became even more solemn.

The harsh conditions of the Demon Sword make it more difficult to kill the final Demon Mother.

No wonder the hermit is not optimistic about Marven's actions at all.

However, he eventually lent the weapon to Marven. Why is that?

Marven didn't ask the question, but respectfully bowed the courtesy. Left the quiet valley.

Soon, the hermit and the toad were left in the valley.

"A young fool. Isn't it? ”

The toad looked at Marven's departing figure and whispered.

The hermit shook his head slowly.

"If it's really a fool, how could I lend him the Demon Slaying Sword."

"This kid is kind of funny. The righteousness on the lips is awe-inspiring, but the heart may not think so. ”

"Wait until the dust settles? What a big breath. I suddenly felt that after sitting for thousands of years, finally something interesting was about to happen. ”

The toad looked at the hermit for no apparent reason.

The latter chuckled: "Everyone wants to break out of the cage. ”

"This world is doomed, because even the creator god wants to destroy this world and then get away with it."

But he knew he couldn't do that, so he had to rely on other people's strengths. But he found that others couldn't do it either, so he simply found someone from another world. ”

"That kid comes from another world, so he doesn't have the imprint of Fernan, and that's the same as when I was back then. He is the only variable in the whole game. Lance feels like he's in control, but at least for now, it seems that his calculations may not all be as he would like. ”

"You know, there are some chess pieces, but they are stubborn, even if they go on a rampage and break the bloodstream, they will sweep away all the haze on this chessboard."

"When the chess pieces become chess players, it will not be easy for anyone who wants to overturn this chessboard."

The toad showed a very sincere look: "To be honest, I didn't understand. ”

The hermit smiled dumbly: "It's okay if you don't understand. ”

"At this time, we, outsiders, just watch the play honestly."

……

Marven's footsteps were silent, and his movements were like a shadow.

But in his mind, the hermit's words just now still echoed.

Those words were not untouched by him.

Lance must have had his purpose in bringing him to the world of Fernan; What exactly is this purpose? Marven hasn't seen it clearly.

As for the chess pieces, Marven can only laugh at himself: It is better to be a chess piece than to continue to be a disabled person.

At the very least, there is hope for me.

Where there is hope, there are infinite possibilities.

Lance and the gods, layers of conspiracy or conspiracy, these layers of things he is not qualified to think about at all.

He knew very well that he was only qualified to consider these things if his own strength could affect this universe.

Otherwise there is no point at all.

The hermit's words may have been well-intentioned, but in Marven's opinion now, it was too early.

Don't think about these messy things, and work hard to improve your strength is the way to go.

Of course, not thinking about it doesn't mean ignoring it; On the contrary, Marven's mind is clear.

Everyone's actions are not for no reason, they are all driven by interests.

If one day, everything falls into place, even if he wants to be an enemy of Lance, Marven will not be afraid.

Because at that time, he will definitely grow to the point that even Lance can't imagine!

This is Marven's confidence in himself and a requirement for himself.

……

Three days later, the northern part of the Rosen Fortress group.

In a small fortress.

In the dueling arena, two groups of people were tense.

"Raven, have you really thought it through?"

"Even if you win, you won't be able to get that seat; Of course, look at the comparison of strengths, you can't win. ”

"Our Ruby Fortress is meant to be a small fortress, and what you want is too far away from you. Unless you consider my previous proposal......"

A middle-aged underground human greedily glanced at Raven and the equally graceful female Drow beside her, swallowed and said:

"Let's join forces, you help me sit in that position, we share everything, how about it?"

The people around him invariably heckled in response to the leader's remarks.

He has more people, about three times as many as Raven.

This time, in order to consolidate his control of the Ruby Fortress, he also recruited troops from other fortresses at any cost, in order to take down Raven's group in one fell swoop.

In his opinion, this is not a difficult matter, he is a patron of the gods with the blessing of the dark dragon god.

Raven and the others have been abandoned by the gods, and it is impossible to compete with him.

The reason why he opened his mouth to persuade him was that he just didn't want the Ruby Fortress to become weak because of internal friction.

It's just that before Raven could speak, the female Drow beside her had already stood up, and her tone was extremely cold:

"Why so much nonsense?"

"It's said that the duel will be won or lost, whoever loses will get out, and then say okay after the rest of the things are fought? You're really annoying. ”

The middle-aged man's face immediately became extremely ugly.
