Volume 2 Before the Disaster Chapter 111: Natural Born Assassin
Madeline is indeed a disaster!
Marvin could sense that among the forces she had assembled outside of Hetan City, many of the men were there out of admiration for her.
Some nobles even came from their fiefdoms to help, and brought many of their own knights with them.
However, these people did not receive excessive favor from Madeline.
Instead, Marvin, who seemed to have no background, was personally invited by the city lord to ride in the same carriage with her!
This is certainly something that makes people jealous.
Logically, Marvin should have chosen to avoid suspicion. But he looked at those people and realized that most of those who cared about this were useless guys.
These people are not a concern at all.
He wanted to know more about Madeline's plan, so he nodded and got into the carriage.
Madeline snapped her fingers with a smile.
The half-open carriage closed automatically, and no one knew what happened inside.
"Set off!"
At the city lord's order, the entire army slowly advanced to the northwest.
The nameless hill at the remnant of the Hall Mountains was destined to welcome a group of visitors with ill intentions today.
…
The interior of the carriage is very spacious.
It can be seen that this place has been renovated by Madeline, and the space has been expanded at least five times.
She divided the interior of the carriage into several rooms, and Marvin could vaguely see the symbols of alchemy.
This is like a mobile laboratory!
Marvin sat on the velvet sofa but did not feel hot.
The entire interior of the carriage must have been solidified with the [Cooling Technique]. Marvin took a quick look and had a certain idea of what this luxurious carriage was like.
“It’s very expensive…”
Ma Wen was envious.
In this world ruled by wizards, these powerful wizards do possess resources beyond those of ordinary people.
The value of this carriage alone is such that even if the entire White River Valley is sold, it would still not be able to raise that much money.
"Would you like to drink?" Madeline's voice came from the cubicle.
Before Marvin could answer, Madeline came over from the cubicle.
She held a bottle of red wine in her left hand, an empty goblet in her right hand, and a glass in her mouth that was one-third full of red wine!
...Clean network deletion...
The scarlet wine soaked her lips, and her whole body seemed to surge forward like a blazing flame.
The flames seemed to devour Marvin.
Marvin shuddered and suddenly turned his head to look to the side!
Purple hair...flaming feeling...deep blood...
Everything ties together.
Winnie's Dream!
Marvin suddenly felt that his decision to get on the carriage seemed a bit hasty.
"Are you afraid?"
Madeline walked over very frankly, put down the wine and the glass, sat down with her legs crossed, and just looked at Marvin.
"We're still some distance away from our destination. Don't you feel bored?"
"Or... you are not a man at all? Let me see your reaction..."
Madeline giggled.
Suddenly, she pounced on Marvin.
…
However, at this moment, a flash of lightning flashed through Marvin's mind.
He suddenly felt a burning sensation in his chest.
It was that ornament—a gift from Varissa!
"Damn it, illusion!"
Ma Wen cursed in his heart, and he understood instantly!
He hurriedly took out the magic holy grail!
As soon as he got the Holy Grail in his hand, an extremely cool feeling spread throughout his body, and he broke free from Madeline's illusion in an instant.
This is one of the powerful properties of the Holy Grail.
Immune to illusions below Legendary level!
Marvin opened his eyes and saw Madeline in pink pajamas, staring at him coldly.
Seeing the Holy Grail appear, she smiled: "You are finally willing to take it out."
The next second, Marvin felt his hand slip and the Holy Grail fell off automatically.
Entanglement technique!
An invisible force entangled the magic holy grail, and it was about to fall into Madeline's hands.
This is her purpose!
Use illusions to induce Marvin's vigilance, forcing him to subconsciously take out the magic holy grail to resolve the predicament.
Marvin's heart was shocked. Maybe she didn't want to keep the Holy Grail forever, but at least in this battle, it was impossible for her to return it to Marvin!
"We can't let her take the Holy Grail away from us."
Marvin's reaction was equally quick.
He suddenly rushed towards Madeline - explosion!
puff!
A powerful force field directly blew Marvin away!
His entire body was pressed against the wall of the carriage, his body extremely twisted!
Madeline hugged the Holy Grail with a smile, looked at Marvin's painful expression, and licked her lips: "I admit that I really want to eat you right now."
"But before we solve the problem of the Scarlet Monastery, we should just be patient for now."
"Don't worry, I'm only borrowing your Holy Grail temporarily. You don't have to participate in this battle. You can do whatever you want in this carriage, or even just take a nap."
"Wait for me to return victorious..."
Madeline smiled proudly.
There was a flash of anger in Marvin's eyes.
This woman has absolutely no sense of contract . The two parties had clearly agreed to cooperate, but who knew she would change her mind at the last minute!
As expected, he has the blood of the Abyss... No wonder Hathaway asked me to be careful.
Fortunately, I still have a backup plan!
Marvin's expression became calm.
After obtaining the magic Holy Grail, before leaving the Three Ring Tower, he asked Hathaway to ask the wizard of the Craftsman's Tower to enchant the Holy Grail.
This temporary enchantment doesn't last long, it can only last for three months. But it will continue to be effective within three months.
The name of this magic is [Return the Property to Its Original Owner]!
Within three months, even if someone stole Marvin's Holy Grail, he only needed to recite a spell and the Holy Grail would automatically return to Marvin's hands!
Unless the other party is a legend.
But Madeline is not like that, she is a quasi-legendary, a real level 20 wizard.
She couldn't limit this magic.
…
Marven whispered, "In that case, can you let me go?"
Madeline looked at Marvin with some surprise.
She thought Marvin would at least get angry for a while, and she even prepared calming and sleeping spells, but Marvin's reaction was surprisingly calm.
"You tricked me into getting on the carriage, wasn't it just for the Holy Grail?"
Marvin looked into her eyes and said, "Now the Holy Grail is in your hands. There's no point in me staying in the car any longer, right?"
Madeline rolled her eyes and said, "No , for your safety, I think it's better for you to stay in the carriage."
"I know you have a lot of legendary friends, and I dare not let you lose your life on my territory."
House arrest?
Marvin sneered in his heart, and his understanding of Madeline became deeper.
The mayor of Hetan City is indeed not someone who is so easy to control.
He had to find a way to get out of this carriage.
Unfortunately, the carriage was completely enclosed and imprisoned by magic. Unless Marvin had skills such as flashing and teleporting, it would be impossible for him to escape.
"It seems like we can only take the risk."
He had made up his mind.
However, just as he was about to take action, an unexpected person appeared.
…
In another compartment of the carriage, a little girl walked quietly.
The girl was very young, with crimson eyes and a blank expression. She was wearing a close-fitting maid's outfit and walked slowly towards him.
Marvin's pupils shrank.
Madeline did not notice these abnormalities. She handed the Holy Grail to the girl and said, "Put it away."
The girl hummed softly, turned around and walked to the back.
She didn't look at Marvin.
But Marvin suddenly asked, "How is your mother?"
There was a sudden silence in the carriage, and Madeline felt a sense of alarm in her heart.
Marvin's words seemed to make no sense, but only he and the little girl herself understood them!
Isabel.
Marvin still remembers the name clearly, the impressive red eyes, and the indescribable stubbornness he showed when facing bullies.
This is very rare for a six-year-old girl.
Isabel looked up suddenly, she recognized Marvin's voice!
Her response was quick: “Is this item yours?”
"Isabelle!" Madeline shouted sternly, and the next second, she pointed with her right hand!
An instant entanglement spell grabbed the girl.
Marvin's heart tightened, but he relaxed immediately.
Because the girl suddenly disappeared from where she was!
Madeline's entanglement spell failed.
She appeared beside Marvin and stuffed the Holy Grail back into his hand.
"My mother is dead," she said.
"The money you gave me was also taken away by bad guys."
…
"How dare you treat your benefactor like this!"
Madeline looked at Marvin in exasperation as he hid the Holy Grail back into the Conch of the Void.
Now, even if she snatched Marvin’s Void Conch, she wouldn’t be able to get what was inside.
Storage equipment usually has self-destruct facilities, so her actions were futile.
Isabel said calmly: "Master Shuangdao Mask is my benefactor."
"My Lord City Lord, you are not."
"I am grateful that you took me in. But you are not my benefactor. You just want to train me to be your weapon."
"I will pay you back for what I owe you . After all, it was your training that helped me unlock my talent. But today, I'm sorry."
After that, under Madeline's angry gaze, Isabel grabbed Marvin's hand, and they both disappeared in the carriage at the same time!
…
In another more luxurious and magnificent carriage, a middle-aged pastor was sitting upright, and the entire carriage was empty.
Suddenly, two figures appeared in the carriage.
The middle-aged priest opened his eyes and saw only a young boy and a little girl.
Isabel's body suddenly collapsed. Marvin tried to support her, but he caught a handful of sweat!
Obviously, activating this miraculous secret technique was a huge burden for a child as young as her.
"You..." The pastor looked at Marvin in confusion.
"We will pay." Marvin said concisely, and threw a wizard gold coin over.
For the pastor of the Silver Church, he knew that this sentence was enough.
Sure enough, the latter immediately shut up.
His eyes were focused on the nearly unconscious Isabel.
He didn't expect that after waiting for the girl in the territory for a long time, he met her in Madeline's carriage.
"Is he really the descendant of that bloodline?"
"According to legend, the group of people known as 'natural born assassins'..."
