Volume 2 Before the Disaster Chapter 112 Transaction
The carriage moved forward steadily.
Isabel was very weak. Although her potential had been stimulated, it was obviously a very difficult task for her to leave Madeline's carriage with Marvin.
She overdrew a lot for this.
Marvin felt a pain in his heart when he saw the haggard and stubborn look on the little girl's face.
This child is really different.
He held her in his arms and asked Isabel in a low voice about her experience. The latter slowed down and told her what happened after she parted with Marvin.
…
After Marvin single-handedly eliminated the Akron gang, Isabel also received some money.
She planned to use the money to save her mother's life, but the result was contrary to her expectations.
Her mother ultimately did not live to see the divine power of the priest of the Silver Church. When Isabel was running away holding the hand of the young priest, she had already passed away in that small slum.
"When she died, a group of people suddenly rushed in. If it weren't for the pastor protecting me, I would have been kidnapped by them."
"They took away all the money you gave me, saying it was my mother's debt to them. This is impossible. My mother didn't owe anyone money when she was alive."
"That young pastor couldn't do anything. Those guys were powerful people from another gang. He kindly offered to bury my mother in that shabby cemetery, but I refused."
"I want to get some money to give my mother a better funeral and burial place."
The girl's tone was calm , but the content of her narration became more and more shocking:
"Around this time, there was a man from the slum, who was much older than me, who was drunk and tried to grab me. I didn't know what he wanted to do, so I started to resist."
"I killed him with the dagger you gave me."
"It was my first time killing someone, but I didn't feel disgusted. I got money from him."
"It was then that I suddenly realized that killing people could earn money."
“So I started killing people.”
Her crimson eyes began to flicker, but there was no fluctuation on the girl's delicate face.
Killing seemed to be just a normal thing for her.
Marvin shook his head silently.
"Killing is wrong." The pastor at the side interrupted.
"I've paid for the ride." Marvin glared at him. He shrugged and continued to rest with his eyes closed.
…
What happened next was unremarkable. Isabel, who was already full of talent, soon became very comfortable in the slums.
It was hard for Marvin to imagine how this six-year-old girl could transform into a terrifying killer under the pressure of cruel reality.
She saved up some money by killing people, including gang members, and eventually buried her mother.
Then she encountered a major reorganization of River Beach City. Isabel was noticed by Madeline, who took her back to her wizard tower, preparing to train her to be a personal maid - and a real assassin.
In the wizard tower, there was even a third-level assassin as her mentor. Obviously, Madeline also saw Isabel's talent.
But she may not know what those crimson eyes mean yet.
…
Marvin recalled the mission he had done in his previous life. He was deeply impressed by the boy who rushed into the sea of fire frantically and died together with the enemy. Like Isabel, the boy also had a pair of crimson pupils.
Killing seems to be the fate of this race of people.
They are natural assassins and heirs of Shar's will. There is a trace of the power of the ancient gods in their blood, which makes them different from others since childhood.
They call themselves "Hamon people". Three hundred years ago, people of this race lived on the northern island of Hamon and rarely interacted with the outside world.
But by accident, a large wizard family took a fancy to the favorable terrain of Harmon Island and prepared to develop it. Naturally, this encountered strong resistance from the people of this race.
The two sides engaged in a horrific and bloody battle, and eventually the Hammons were slaughtered by witchcraft, with only a few left.
And that wizard family was severely damaged after that battle. They could only barely occupy Harmon Island and their original fiefdom, and their development was not as good as before.
The reason is very simple. The Harmons are natural assassins and their threat to wizards is unprecedented .
For example, Isabel, a mere six-year-old girl, has mastered the ability to move freely inside and outside a carriage that has been solidified with fourth-level wizard spells!
In that battle, that powerful wizard family also lost too many masters.
From then on, the Hamon people almost withdrew from the stage of Fenan's history. Occasionally, a few of them would show up, and once they met the people of that wizard family, they would seek revenge to the death. Later, those who had the blood of the Hamon people gradually forgot all about it.
Even among the god-level players in the previous life, not many people knew about this history.
Marvin happened to be one of them. He participated in a mission called "Revenge of the Hamon People". In that mission, he teamed up with his friend from the Hamon tribe and directly blew up the Hamon Island!
The number of wizards who died at his hands was simply countless, but the boy from the Harmon tribe killed more than twice as many wizards as Marvin, the Lord of Darkness!
You know, that boy is only at level four.
If he advances to the legendary level... his power will be unimaginable!
Marvin had seen some records that it was very difficult for the Harmons to advance to legendary level, and many of them were stuck at the fourth level; those who occasionally showed signs of being about to advance to legendary level would be tripped up and killed by the Shadow Prince - the Harmons were the easiest people to replace his throne, so Marvin even suspected that the conflict between the wizard family and Harmon Island was instigated by that bastard.
Marvin clearly remembered that after the Harmons advanced to legend, they would definitely gain a super powerful legendary feat - [Infinite Flash]!
This ability is far stronger than the celestial creature [Void Flash] with similar talents.
The only flaw is that the Hamon people are easily bloodthirsty and can easily take other people's lives, which can easily make them indifferent to life.
Marvin also kills, but he loves life.
And in Isabel's eyes, Marvin saw pure indifference.
This gave him a headache.
…
"Don't worry, since we meet again this time, just follow me."
"I won't let Madeline take you away from me."
Marvin gently stroked Isabel's hair and whispered.
The latter nodded slightly and suddenly asked: "Mr. Double Sword Mask, I don't even know your name yet?"
"Everyone knows that the Masked Man with Two Blades is Baron Marvin of the White River Valley." The priest interrupted again.
Ma Wen rolled his eyes at him, which was considered as his agreement.
Isabel said "Oh".
It seemed that to her, it didn’t matter whether Marvin was a double-bladed mask or not.
The only important thing was that she remembered the name.
In fact, when she was beaten by the two hooligans that day and Marvin appeared and dealt with them very efficiently, she secretly remembered it all in her heart.
For this extremely precocious girl, no one had ever reached out to her like Marvin did that day.
She remembered every word Marvin had said - she even remembered the way he threw the dagger at her and said with a smile:
"Here, Miss Isabel, tonight, we have a common enemy."
At that time, she made a secret vow in her heart.
Her world was originally gray, but because of this oath, it suddenly had a touch of color.
"Double-blade Mask, White River Valley, Baron Marvin..."
She looked at Marvin deeply, as if she wanted to engrave his appearance in her heart.
Marvin sighed , but began to think about how to deal with Madeline.
Who knew that at this moment, the pastor suddenly said, "Someone is coming in. If you don't want her to come in, you have to pay more."
In an instant, a portal appeared in the center of the carriage.
Madeline!
Ma Wen's eyelids twitched and his mind raced.
However, at this moment, the middle-aged pastor suddenly reached out, pushed lightly, and actually closed the door.
"It's free for the first time we close," he said.
This effortless movement left Marvin dumbfounded!
This guy...
He actually closed Madeline's door?
What kind of strength is this?
"etc……"
Marvin stared at the pastor in front of him and finally remembered: "Are you Lord Collins?"
The middle-aged pastor nodded calmly: "The door will open again in eight seconds. Madeline looks very angry."
White Collins!
The most powerful person in River Beach City of the Silver Church, a fourth-rank quasi-legendary divine magician!
Marvin had been paying attention to Isabel's condition and did not notice that Isabel had brought him into the carriage of this adult!
This guy doesn't have the demeanor of a strong man at all. He looks like he's obsessed with money, so it's inevitable that people will ignore him.
"How much does it cost to keep her out?" Marvin asked quickly.
Collins thought for a moment and said, "That's expensive."
"The priority mining rights for half of the gold mine. The scale is no smaller than the one discovered in the north of Hetan City." Marvin's eyes rolled and he spoke without hesitation.
Collins looked Marvin up and down, a little suspicious: "Is there a gold mine in your territory?"
"It will be available soon." Marvin said calmly, "One month at most."
"Deal." Collins smiled slightly and pushed up the door that had just been opened.
Madeline's roar came from outside: "Collins, you bastard! What are you doing?!"
"Let me in!"
…
"You have to tell me where the gold mine is first." Collins stared at Marvin seriously.
Marvin responded: "Under the asses of a bunch of ogres..."
Collins' eyes widened immediately, and he immediately went to open the car door, ready to invite Madeline in!
Marvin immediately said, "Give me three minutes. It will be done in three minutes."
"Don't try to cheat an honest businessman," Collins warned. "I'll block you for three minutes in exchange for the priority mining rights for the gold mine you mentioned."
"make a deal!"
Marvin grabbed a piece of parchment from the Void Conch and slashed his finger with the scimitar.
Quickly, he began to write something on the parchment.
