Volume 2 Before the Disaster Chapter 153 Bloody Cross

The carriage drove slowly over the hill.

The knight pulled the reins and the fine horse immediately stopped.

"Oren, what happened over there?"

Daniela, who had been observing the White River Valley with her curtains open and bored, saw what was happening in the pumpkin patch from afar.

Knight Commander Oren looked serious: "It seems like an adventurer riot."

"During our visit, we also heard that Baron Marvin issued a wilderness development order and recruited many adventurers."

"But this kind of situation will often attract more adventurers, and they are all destabilizing factors."

Daniela suddenly became excited: "You mean, someone is looking for trouble?"

Oren said helplessly: "It is true."

"Baron Marvin seems to be alone. The guards behind him are understaffed. Although he is quite skilled, he is only one person."

"Miss, should we..."

Daniela snorted coldly:

"I was made to wait outside the territory for so long, and there wasn't even a grand welcoming ceremony. I still can't get over this!"

"You still want to help him?"

"After all, you are a family." Oren said seriously, "Have you forgotten the family motto of the Cleland family?"

Daniela immediately looked suspicious: "Oren, you are almost as annoying as my dad."

Oren smiled and said, "I dare not. It's all up to the lady to decide."

Daniela squinted her eyes and looked into the distance.

At this time, Marvin was alone in the pumpkin field, and seemed to be scolding something.

Those adventurers had no intention of retreating. From this angle, they could even see some adventurers taking out their weapons under the cover of the people in front.

"They want to harm Baron Marvin." Oren said seriously.

"Miss, please give the order immediately. We should still be in time if we rush over now."

The convoy was filled with the North's top knights. If they charged forward from here, Oren was absolutely confident that he could crush these adventurers to pieces.

Daniela obviously realized this as well.

She bit her lip and showed a hint of displeasure: "Well, it would be funny if he really died at the hands of these adventurers."

"Then I'll be a widow."

"Oren, take ten people with you and disperse those adventurers."

Oren nodded and was about to do a head count.

Who knew that at this moment, a terrifying murderous intent came from the pumpkin field!

Bang!

All the knights in the entire caravan drew their swords involuntarily!

This is their instinctive reaction when facing a crisis after undergoing rigorous training!

"What's wrong? Oren?"

Daniela was extremely surprised.

Oren was surprised and asked, "Who are ?"

The next second, nineteen warriors in black armor rushed out from the void.

Each of them held a two-handed sword and charged towards the adventurers with exactly the same movements!

The moment they appeared, everything around them was affected by an inexplicable impulse.

Even the northern knights beside the caravan on the hill were affected, which is why they took such action.

But in fact, the power of these warriors was not directed against them.

The Dark Guards' pressure is aimed at these reckless adventurers!

"Even the murderous aura attached to it is so strong..."

Oren stared in amazement as the nineteen warriors plunged into the adventurers like sharp blades and began to slaughter them wantonly, muttering, "This murderous aura...how many people have they killed!"

As for Daniela, she was simply stunned.

Ma Wenming had only nineteen people, but it seemed as if he had an army of thousands.

Every dark guard carries the souls of their comrades who died in battle.

Therefore, every time they attack, the enemy will face the threat of the will of tens of thousands of heroes!

This kind of intimidation may be much weaker than dragon power, but it is enough to make ordinary professionals lose their ability to resist.

They are unstoppable.

They are natural born killing machines!

…

The dark sword was waving among the crowd, and the expressionless warriors were slaughtering the lives of the reckless adventurers!

Drew and the other security guards were stunned.

The amazing Lord Marvin, I wonder when he came up with such an invisible army?

As for those adventurers, 80% of them lost the ability to control their bodies at the first moment!

[Heroic Spirit Threat]: Every three minutes, the enemy will conduct a strong will test. If the strong will test fails, the enemy will fall into panic and lose control of the body.

This is where the Dark Guard is most powerful!

Marvin watched all this coldly.

The adventurers wailed and began to beg for mercy, but the dark guards would not care.

They only kill.

They were born to kill!

Even if an adventurer knelt on the ground and dropped his weapon with both hands, they would chop off his head without hesitation.

Bloody.

There is no word "stop" in their dictionary.

Because the order given by Marvin was - don't leave anyone alive!

…

This was a completely one-sided battle.

Nineteen people against hundreds of people. But the nineteen people were unscathed, while the hundreds of people were killed and left with nothing.

From the beginning of the battle, the situation became one-sided!

This is not just because of the powerful [Heroic Spirit Intimidation].

Also, these 19 warriors, who are only second-level heavy-armored warriors, possess the agility of a ranger, the strength of a high-level warrior, and the qualities of the coldest killers.

Their fighting style is simple and fierce, which is to kill the enemy at all costs.

The adventurers began to flee.

They had to flee.

No matter what tricks they had tried before, they were already scared to death due to the absolute gap in strength.

They couldn't figure out where Marvin got such a group of terrifying killing machines!

Only Marvin knew that these warriors who seemed to be only at the second level were once legendary warriors!

They are powerful people who follow the Night King to help humans and other creatures resist the vicious and savage monsters in the eternal night.

They were a Legion in the beginning, created by the Night King himself.

The purpose of their birth is to kill, kill, kill!

Kill all kinds of monsters in the eternal night of the wild period.

The plane divisions at that time were not so clear, and terrifying star beasts, hundred-eyed giants and other monsters would visit Fenan every now and then!

The Dark Guard Legion was created to protect Fenan.

It’s just that their way of guarding is different, they choose the path of killing.

Kill all enemies and you can protect the people behind you. This is the purpose of the birth of the Dark Guard.

…

At the beginning, the Dark Guard Legion had a total of 10,000 people.

Later, in the long Eternal Night War, these people continued to die.

Their bodies died, but their spirits lived on forever. This was the law created by the Night King.

Whenever a dark guard dies, his soul will be attached to his comrades and his brothers-in-arms!

They will continue to fight together with their comrades.

Guard Fenan together.

As the war went on, the number of dark guards continued to decrease.

In the end, when the war was over, there were only nineteen of them left.

These nineteen people carry the heroic spirits of ten thousand ancient martyrs.

So they are invincible.

But the war is over, and the Night King will leave this world.

The Dark Guards have always existed only for killing. Without the control of the Night King, they will lose their self-control and become a group of monsters who only know how to kill!

They sacrificed themselves to protect the families behind them.

Similarly, after the war, they stepped into the Land of Eternal Night.

They froze themselves in the dark sea and fell into an eternal sleep.

They swore an oath that they would only awaken again when the world faced a truly horrific disaster and if the heir of the Night King came to the Dark Sea.

The remaining nineteen dark guards will continue to follow the heir and fight!

They protected Fenan when they were alive, accumulated strength when they were asleep, and now that they have awakened, they have only one goal.

That is to protect the continent they once guarded.

To this end, they will stop at nothing.

Even with the passage of time, their power has been severely suppressed.

The former legend is now only at the second level.

But Marvin knew that with the passage of time, the power of the Dark Guard would return.

In five months at most, they will be able to recover to the quasi-legendary stage.

As for whether he can be promoted to legend again, it is not certain.

He can control all of this through the Mark of Eternal Night.

With these dark guards, his territory has a real foundation!

They can freely enter and exit the Kingdom of Eternal Night and a certain coordinate in Fenan, which is currently on Marvin.

So he can summon them directly from the void.

…

In just eight minutes.

More than a hundred adventurers were killed completely.

The pumpkin patch was flooded with blood.

Those farmers were completely terrified. Fortunately, Marvin did this to protect them, otherwise, normal people would not be able to bear such cruel means.

"You guys come and tidy up the body."

Marvin said to the guards, "Drew, go to the northern Spider Cave to the White River Valley and build a checkpoint."

"From today on, every adventurer who applies to enter the White River Valley must report it."

“There are disobedients.”

"kill."

Every word Marvin said was so understated.

But to Drew and the others, it was frightening.

"Sir, isn't this too cruel?" Drew asked cautiously.

Marvin pointed to the land under his feet and said, "This is my territory."

"This is the place I want to protect. Anyone who dares to mess around will die. It's that simple."

"By the way, for these more than one hundred people, go borrow a few bullock carts and pile them all up next to the checkpoint."

"I want to make a [Bloody Cross]."
