Volume 1: The Nobles Who Lost Their Territory Chapter 34: Assembly!
In Fenan's world, anything related to dragons is extraordinary.
As the top of the food chain, each dragon was extremely destructive . It was difficult to deal with these behemoths if you were below the Legendary level.
As for the Dragon Power Potion, although it has no direct relationship with dragons, it is naturally extraordinary since it is named after a dragon.
This medicine is actually a general term for a series of medicines.
Taking this potion can significantly increase a series of attributes in a short period of time.
In a crucial battle, it can definitely play a decisive role.
After careful appraisal by Master Cole and the wizard apprentice, Marvin's five wizard gold coins were not wasted, as he obtained the most detailed properties of the potion.
[Dragon Power]: Strength +6, Agility +4 for 10 minutes
Such properties are basically the same as turning on the Wushuang. Marvin couldn't imagine how powerful he would become after drinking it!
His strength is relatively weak, only 11, but after taking the power of the dragon, his strength will reach a high of 17!
This is completely close to the level of a second-level warrior!
Not to mention the 4 points of agility increase. With 24 points of agility, he can basically do anything, including flying and hiding. Even on the battlefield, except for stray arrows or group attack spells, it is difficult for ordinary monsters to touch his clothes!
This bottle of dragon power potion is absolutely priceless.
Fortunately, the Ranger Guild is still quite ethical. Master Cole and the wizard apprentice have probably worked together to identify many similar potions. Until he left, Marvin did not feel that they had any malicious intentions.
This is also the reason why Marvin chose the Ranger Guild. After all, it is a formal large organization and will not be too chaotic.
If it was the goblin Bain, they probably had similar appraisers, but it was not known whether they would be tempted by the money.
…
At the Black Eagle Inn, a list was handed to Marvin.
"Only fifteen?"
Marvin was a little surprised.
The instructions he gave Anna were to recruit about 20 people.
"High-level adventurers offer too high a price, and low-level ones are just here to cheat us out of money. We don't need them."
"These fifteen people are almost what we need most."
"Besides, the more adventurers there are, the better." Anna explained: "Although they have all signed contracts, if our strength is too weak, we may not be able to suppress them."
Marvin nodded, understanding Anna's concerns.
If we rely on the power of adventurers to retake the White River Valley, we might end up being restrained by these adventurers.
The strength of the security team is indeed a little weak. If too many adventurers are recruited and they form a force, it will be very disadvantageous to Marvin.
The housekeeper's considerations were very thorough.
but.
"There are sorcerers among the gnolls," said Marvin.
"What?" Anna was surprised. "Warlock? How is this possible?"
"I saw it with my own eyes. He almost found us." Marvin gave a rare bitter smile, "And they also have a mutant coyote. It's very difficult to deal with."
"As for the gnoll warriors themselves, there is no big problem."
One hundred and fifty gnoll warriors may sound like a lot, but the human adventurers are all higher level than them.
Basically, it's not difficult to fight one against two or three. As long as you can kill their leader, their morale will plummet.
However, considering the cunningness of the Werewolf Warlock, he will definitely hide in a corner during a head-on battle and avoid being discovered.
Those mutant coyotes are controlled by him. He must either find a way to restrain the coyotes or find a way to eliminate the warlock.
Otherwise it will be difficult for them to win.
"As for that kind of coyote, I killed one before when they attacked me by surprise."
Anna frowned and analyzed seriously, "They have no vital points. Even if I pierce their hearts with my sword, I can't kill them."
"so……"
Marvin had never fought mutant coyotes, so he knew very little about them.
This thing is really hard to fight. It is large, fast, highly lethal, and has no lethal weaknesses.
If a few people were killed by coyotes, the guards would be fine, but the adventurers would probably be defeated.
Ma Wen thought about it, grabbed a piece of paper and wrote down lines.
Anna stood quietly by, watching Marvin write skillfully, and the more she watched, the more surprised she was.
Master Marvin...what a genius!
He actually came up with three ways to restrain coyotes in such a short time!
It seems that the unfortunate experiences during this period have stimulated his potential.
Did it bring out his strong and wise side?
Anna thought so in her heart.
"Yes, let's make preparations according to what's written here. We'll set off in ."
Marvin said decisively.
"But what about the warlock?" Anna was still a little worried.
Although the warlock does not have as many spells as the wizard, it is also a very powerful profession.
"I'll take care of it."
As Marvin spoke, he picked up the list of adventurers again and read .
…
There were fifteen adventurers in total, coming from two teams of six and three solo guys.
The fifteen people were all first-level adventurers, and there were no advanced professions.
Anna was right. Although Marvin had some money now, the bids from high-level adventurers were often very high, so it was not worth it.
Moreover, if someone too strong joins in, Marvin might be afraid that he won’t be able to control the situation.
What surprised Marvin was that one of the six-man teams was quite famous in Hetan City.
【thorns】.
"This Thorn Squad is quite famous among low-level adventurers. Their captain is a level 5 warrior."
As if noticing that Marvin's eyes were fixed on the six members of the Thorns, Anna immediately said, "We are lucky."
"With the strength of the Thorn Squad, we can't hire veterans like them at this price."
"But their boss's daughter happened to have a strange disease and needed a high-level priest to save her. They were in urgent need of money and had no big orders recently, so they accepted our mission."
"This team still has some credibility."
Marvin nodded.
From this list of fifteen people, it can be seen that Anna put a lot of effort into it.
The other six-man team is also quite powerful and well-equipped. Although it is a newly emerging team, its completion rate is very high in the mission records of the Adventurer's Guild.
As for the three guys working alone, they are all very strong: a level 4 ranger who is proficient in bows and arrows, a level 5 druid with brown bear form, and a rare boxer.
Each of them was somewhat famous in River Beach City. Marvin calculated that the average price paid to the three adventurers working alone was the highest.
"There is no problem with this list. We will set off in three days. Notify Andre and the others and ask them to get ready."
Marvin finally made the decision!
Three days later, the Baihe Valley was recaptured!
"Where is the gathering place?" Anna asked.
"Night Tide Inn." Marvin named an unexpected location. "When I came back from my reconnaissance, I found that the inn was still open."
"Let's gather there."
"You will be in charge of this operation. I will not go."
Anna showed a hint of surprise: "Aren't you going?"
She was a little surprised.
Marvin smiled and said, "Of course I can't go. I'm a weak lord who can't even tie a chicken."
"But the Masked Twin Swordsman, he will go."
Anna completely relaxed and smiled knowingly.
Young Master Marvin did not hide anything from her, which made her happiest.
…
Three days later, at the Yechao Hotel, a day's walk outside Hetan City.
This shabby little hotel is actually just a place for people to rest opened by an old lame farmer nearby.
After the fall of the Baihe Valley, there was almost no one on the official road between the valley and Hetan City.
But the Night Tide Inn was still open. Old Lame Leg had nothing else to do anyway.
As for moving, he would not consider it unless those damn gnolls rushed over.
But he knew they wouldn't dare to do that. This was the territory of River Beach City. If those jackals were really blind and came to kill them, there would be patrols from River Beach City to deal with them.
But tonight, Yechao Hotel welcomed too many guests!
His hotel could only accommodate twenty people at most, but tonight, thirty-six people came!
Among them was a woman.
However, the old lame man did know that woman. She was Lady Anna, the housekeeper of the White River Valley.
He was busy running around, entertaining the more than 30 guests, and he was very happy.
But when he was preparing in the kitchen, he suddenly heard a fighting sound coming from the living room!
"Oh no! Will they damage my ancestral tapestry?"
The old lame man's heart sank. He could tell that they were a group of lawless adventurers who were capable of anything.
He immediately put down the stack of steamed buns and limped back to the living room.
In the living room, more than thirty people were clearly divided into several factions and were confronting each other coldly.
They looked like they were about to fight.
