Volume 2 Before the Disaster Chapter 174: White Deer Cave
On the silent sand dunes, Marvin remained silent.
Madeline must have misunderstood what I meant.
He quickly wrote a line of words.
This light blue booklet was an alchemical item made by Madeline. Its purpose was naturally short-distance communication.
He was now in the eastern part of the Sage Desert, which was actually not very far from Riverside City, so Marvin gave it a try.
He didn't have much hope at first, but he didn't expect Madeline to reply to him so quickly?
"Is this the legendary [Instant Reply]?"
Ma Wen complained in his heart.
…
In the Mage Tower, a line of words appeared again on the blue booklet.
Madeline frowned slightly. At first she thought it was Marvin's prank. She was so absorbed in studying the Book of Naaru that she simply didn't bother to pay attention to him.
Who knows this sentence, it doesn't seem to be false:
[The White Deer Cave is about to open. Aren't you tempted by the treasures inside? ]
Below this sentence, there is a floating portrait of Marvin. This was enchanted by Madeline using the Imprinting Spell when she gave the booklet to Marvin.
For her, it was simply about making this alchemical item more fun.
"White Deer Cave?"
The legendary place full of treasures emerged in Madeline's mind .
She hesitated for a moment, but finally gritted her teeth and wrote:
【Sorry, I don't have time.】
The implication was that she was interested, but she didn't have the time. She wanted to be promoted to Legendary as soon as possible - only in this way could she get rid of the constraints of Marvin's Law Contract!
There are indeed many coveted treasures in the White Deer Cave, but they are guarded by the Holy Spirit White Deer and there is no way to take them out.
Madeline is no fool either.
Soon, Marvin's reply was updated again -
[The Holy Spirit White Deer will soon leave the White Deer Cave . Di Gaogeng sent his right-hand man, the Fraudster, to steal the seven-colored stones in the cave. You know what he wants to do.]
This sentence finally made Madeline serious.
As a half-demon, she knows much more about Fenan and the many worlds than ordinary wizards.
She was naturally familiar with the name Di Gaogeng. In her process of advancing into the Scarlet Monastery, she was repeatedly obstructed by this evil spirit lord.
She had already prepared for the other party's revenge, but Di Gaogeng seemed to be more tolerant than she expected.
His revenge was slow in coming.
"Wait... Colorful Stone?"
A gleam of light flashed in Madeline's eyes.
Is this opening the door to disaster?
【How did you know this? 】
She couldn't help but write.
【Come to me and I will tell you all this. 】
Marvin replied.
[Since you told me this, I can just go to the White Deer Cave by myself. Why should I come to you? ]
Madeline fought back unwillingly.
However, the next second, Marvin's light reply made the half-succubus angry.
He lazily wrote this line:
[Do you know how to get to the White Deer Cave? ]
…
Two hours later, Marvin sat leisurely on the magic carpet and began to analyze the ins and outs of the matter with Madeline.
In fact, he chose Madeline because she was close and could fly.
That's the benefit of being a wizard.
Magic carpets, as alchemical items, have always been in short supply - because second-level wizards can use magic carpets. Although they consume a large amount of expensive magic powder as fuel, the feeling of flying is indeed something other professions cannot envy.
Only when you have a certain level of control over the chaos magic can you activate the magic carpet flight.
However, it is true that the magic carpet burns money, and the faster it goes, the more money it burns.
In the early days of the game in his previous life, Marvin often saw those wizard players who looked so handsome and impressive riding on magic carpets as they whizzed by. However, that was only superficial appearance. In fact, when they were clearing dungeons, they would most of the time shamelessly ask their teammates for potions.
Therefore, as a wizard, it is impossible to be without money.
A down-and-out wild wizard, even if he faces a wizard who is several levels lower than him but has a huge fortune, will probably end up losing.
As long as you have money, you can use the most vulgar method and kill the opponent by smashing the scrolls randomly.
…
“There is actually such a thing.”
After listening to Marvin's analysis, Madeline's expression became extremely serious.
Di Gaogeng was obviously coming for her and Collins. If the fraudster got the seven-colored stone, then the door to disaster would definitely open.
Where would he choose to open it?
If it were on the East Coast, it would probably be wiped out immediately!
What a joke! Even the ancient red dragon Earl couldn't show off his power for long before being blasted back by the legendary team of the Southern Wizard Alliance.
A group of evil spirits naturally wouldn't dare to act too presumptuously.
In order to demonstrate his military power and seek revenge, Di Gaogeng is very likely to open the door of disaster in the north of Hetan City!
By then, the evil spirits will come out in droves like the sea. Even if the Southern Wizarding Union reacts, River Beach City will probably be razed to the ground.
The power of evil spirits is far beyond the imagination of normal people. If you know how to restrain them, like Marvin, you can skillfully eliminate evil spirits.
But the question is, among the adventurers and even the regular army of River Beach City, how many have experience fighting against evil spirits?
Once the war starts, Riverside City will be extremely dangerous.
"No, we can't stop this." Madeline said decisively:
"I need to report to the alliance and request support."
Marvin sneered and said, "What I just told you is just my personal guess. Do you think the Alliance will believe it?"
"The Eastern Conference is short of manpower right now. Even if the Alliance accepts your request for help, how many people do you think they can send over?"
"To them, the nonsense of a newly-minted viscount, some white deer kills in the desert - these are small matters, aren't they?"
Madeline was silent.
Just as Marvin said, the people in the alliance would not trust them so easily.
Because Marvin had no evidence.
If the corpses of a few brain-eating demons can be used as evidence, then the Alliance will probably have to send troops out every day.
They have to solve all of this by themselves.
"We have to stop the fraudsters from getting the colorful stones and see what treasures are in the cave."
Marvin pointed his finger to the north: "Go that way."
Madeline nodded and controlled the magic carpet, flying over the Dead Hills.
Although most people knew that the White Deer Cave was hidden in a corner of the Dead Hills, not many people in the entire South knew its exact location.
Marvin is one of them.
He had three chances to enter the White Deer Cave. Although he didn't get anything particularly great, he still got some practical stuff.
He remembered this treasure cave clearly.
"It's just ahead." Marvin whispered, "Remember to use [Strong Invisibility], the Deceiver is nearby."
Madeline sneered and said, "Do I need you to remind me of this? We are already invisible now."
Marvin shrugged.
The magic carpet slowly descended.
Ahead is a hill with lush branches and leaves. Under the hill is a circle of ordinary flowers and plants. In the middle of the flowers and plants, some gravel can be vaguely seen.
The placement of these gravels is very particular, and is vaguely related to some ancient runes.
"The runes of the ancient god of nature."
Ma Wen felt a little emotional.
The Holy Spirit White Deer is a celestial creature, a legendary creature, and its strength is much stronger than that of an ordinary unicorn.
It has the natural ability to predict good and bad fortune, and few people can deceive it.
Of course, this was before it came to earth.
At that time, it was still a servant of the Ancient God of Nature. Later, the Ancient God of Nature fell into a deep sleep and delegated the authority of divine arts to the World Tree. The Holy Spirit White Deer followed the World Tree and came from heaven to the human world.
After coming down to earth, its spirituality was obscured by the mundane world, and it lost its previous ability to know everything.
That is why it was deceived by the schemes of the deceiver.
The treasures in the White Deer Cave were collected from all over the years.
Every treasure has its value. The Holy Spirit White Deer wanted to return to heaven, but the gatekeeper of heaven rejected it because of its earthly aura.
The white deer walked in the world, was tainted by the dirty world, and learned many bad things - for example, it collected these treasures in order to bribe the gatekeeper of heaven one day and return to heaven.
I have to say, this background made Marvin feel a little speechless.
But fundamentally, the Holy Spirit White Deer is still a very kind creature.
It's a pity that it was later used by the god of violence, its mind was controlled, and it turned into a monster that wreaked havoc on the human world.
Of course, that was all after the Cataclysm.
The current Holy Spirit White Deer should still be very pure and kind.
…
"I didn't find the [Fraudster] you mentioned."
The two hid in a secret place outside the White Deer Cave. Madeline quietly released the detection magic.
However, her detection magic detected no one except the two of her own party.
Marvin whispered, "There are many ways to block your detection magic. The deceiver is not an ordinary person."
"Since Di Gaogeng dared to send her here, he must have his reasons."
Madeline looked at the White Deer Cave coldly: "No matter what the reason is, I will tear her into pieces!"
Marvin remained silent.
After about three hours, strange things began to happen outside the White Deer Cave.
First, the circle of flowers and plants began to burn, and all the rubble turned into powder in the constant trembling.
The next second, thousands of feet of golden light burst out from the stone gate covered with ivy.
A heavy voice sounded, and the stone door slowly opened!
A white deer with beautiful long horns leaped out of the stone gate nimbly.
It wandered outside the cave for a while, and suddenly let out an angry roar.
The white deer no longer lingered in its original place, but rushed madly towards the desert in the west!
It was so fast that it disappeared into the dead hills in the blink of an eye!
And the stone door began to close slowly.
At this moment, the figure of a woman in white quietly emerged beside the stone gate.
“She showed up.”
Marvin didn't need to remind her, Medili's spell had been prepared for a long time!
Powerful entanglement technique!
