Volume 2 Before the Disaster Chapter 28 The Awakener
There was total silence in the audience.
Everyone was silent, not because the game was over, but because Marvin really killed White!
The power of the force field defense spell is limited after all, and after being cut by the silver wire, it has become fragile.
Marvin cut off White's head in full view of everyone.
"Is this guy really not afraid of revenge from the Unicorn Family?"
"This person is so murderous... so scary."
"The White River Valley is just a small borderland. How can it be compared with the Unicorn Family? Although White is only one of the heirs, the people of the Unicorn Family will definitely not let it go if he is killed like this."
"This boy is really too impulsive, isn't he? Even the September Medal can't save him!"
After a while, low murmurs began to be heard in the audience.
Their expressions were solemn.
The Unicorn Family is considered one of the top five wizarding families on the East Coast, with two third-level wizards and a large number of second-level wizards.
Their base camp is the Crystal Island on the edge of the Sword Sea. Although it is a bit far from the south, it is more than enough to send troops over, cross the Gem Bay, pass through the River Beach City, and destroy a small White River Valley.
In their opinion, Marvin's move was unwise. He could have simply knocked White out and won the match.
The game was lost, and it was only White who was resentful of Marvin.
White's death would arouse the anger of the Unicorn family!
…
Kill White, and the game is over. Because it is a game, not a life-and-death duel, Marvin has no right to search for anything on White's body, which is the only thing Marvin feels sorry for.
This guy has a lot of good stuff.
When he walked out of the competition area, Winnie came over excitedly and gave Marvin a big hug!
Hensel's face turned livid.
"Why did you kill him?" he asked.
"I won't repeat the same reason a second time." Marvin smiled and said, "I have inquired about it these days. White is a member of Blue Morphine, right?"
Henzel sighed and said, "But if you do this, you will put yourself in great danger. The Unicorn Family is a behemoth."
A behemoth?
Marvin smiled. He didn't think so.
Crystal Island is at the edge of the Sword Sea, not far from Gem Bay, and even closer to the volcanic island.
In at most half a month, the ancient red dragon will be awakened by the earthquake, and he will wreak havoc on the entire East Coast. Because without Anthony, the East Coast lacks a legendary figure who can compete with him.
Due to its geographical location, the Crystal Palace of the Unicorn Family became one of the stops for the ancient red dragon to plunder treasures!
Marvin remembered very clearly that before the Cataclysm began, the Unicorn Family, a once glorious wizarding family, was almost destroyed.
It was torn apart by the ancient red dragon, leaving only a few poor tribesmen wandering outside, issuing some tasks to rebuild the family.
Of course, the ancient red dragon was not having a good time either. It was said that the Unicorn Family mobilized a lot of unimaginable power and finally forced the red dragon back.
As a result, that guy remained silent for more than half a year, until after the Cataclysm when he started to make trouble again.
…
Now that White is dead, it is certainly possible that the Unicorn Family will allocate some of its strength to deal with the White River Valley.
But it was more likely an assassination attempt on Marvin himself.
After all, due to geographical reasons, it is not cost-effective to send a large army thousands of miles to destroy the Baihe Valley.
As for Winnie, he is perfectly safe as long as he stays in the Third Ring Tower area.
"If you send assassins to find me, I can't wait to see you!"
This is what Ma Wen thought in his mind.
Because he is about to advance!
…
Just as the group was about to leave, a purple-robed wizard suddenly appeared in front of them.
"Baron Marvin, there is a lord who wants to see you."
Hensel's expression changed slightly.
He is also a member of the Tower of Ashes, so of course he understands what the purple-robed wizard means!
The purple robe is something that only the members of the Chief Wizard Group of the Tower of Ashes are qualified to wear!
Their actions basically represent the will of Hathaway, the owner of the Tower of Ashes.
There is no doubt that the adult the purple-robed wizard was talking about was most likely Hathaway.
Henzel looked at Marvin and his expression immediately changed to, "As expected, I've known for a long time that you have some relationship with Lady Hathaway."
"I see."
Marvin said calmly: "You guys go back first. I'll go with you to see the gentleman."
…
The top floor of the Tower of Ashes.
Clean brown wooden floor, burgundy sofa, creamy white curtains.
The three colors create a strong visual impact.
A green parrot stood there quietly, and a lazy woman lay on the sofa.
She had blonde hair and was wearing a thin nightgown, with her white thighs exposed, which made Marvin's eyes jump.
"Marvin of White River Valley, greetings to the Earl."
Marvin calmed himself down and performed a noble etiquette.
In the system of the Southern Wizard Alliance, Hathaway, the owner of the Tower of Ashes, holds the title of Earl. Once she reaches Legendary status and expands her territory to a more remote and untamed land, she will be immediately granted the title of Marquis. As for the Duke, there is not even one on the entire East Coast, which is related to the vast land of Fenan Continent and the numerous monsters between the city-states.
What was formed among the many powerful forces was not an empire, but an alliance.
"No need to be so polite, Baron Marvin. You and I both know that noble titles are illusory. Only power is real."
Hathaway said in a low voice, and her round eyes suddenly fixed on Marvin: "Did you recognize me that day?"
Marvin was silent for a while before he said, "I have some special perception skills..."
"lie."
Hathaway sneered and said, "Your perception is very ordinary. You don't have outstanding talent in this area."
"Well," Marvin shrugged, "Not long ago, I had a long dream. There were many people and many things in the dream. Excuse me, in that dream, I met many very outstanding people...including you."
"Dream?" Hathaway suddenly perked up.
"What kind of dream was it?"
"It's hard to describe. But it's completely changed me." Marvin used as vague words as possible.
He can't say that he is a time traveler, right?
"I see."
Hathaway did not ask further questions, but showed a look of understanding: "You are indeed the [Awakener]."
ah?
The Awakener?
Marvin's expression did not change, but he was surprised in his heart. He didn't expect that Hathaway would make it
He immediately asked, "Awakener? What does this mean?"
Hathaway paused and looked at Marvin deeply: "Some people who can see different things."
"Some people are blessed by God. They can see the future before horrific events happen ."
"There are many ways to [wake up], and dreams are one of them."
"I am also a Sky Awakener, so I came to you today."
Marvin frowned.
"May I ask what you saw?"
Hathaway didn’t shy away from the question, but looked directly at Marvin: “I saw the destruction.”
"Destruction?" Marvin's smile was a little stiff.
"The east coast was engulfed in flames, demons were rampant, and city-states were destroyed by waves of monsters."
"The era of wizards will end. Some tall figures will enter Fenan, and they will be unstoppable. I have seen too much death."
"Including...my own."
"There is a shadow approaching me. I cannot resist its power."
A cold wind blew, and the entire top floor of the Tower of Ashes suddenly became icy cold.
Listening to Hathaway's narration, Marvin suddenly felt confused. Did he really travel through time, or was the story on Earth just a dream?
Is it because I am also an awakened person that I can remember those things?
Were all those things in the previous life illusions?
…
"No! I have nothing to do with the [Awakener] or anything like that! I am Marvin, Marvin from Earth!"
He shook his head violently and broke out in a cold sweat.
The words Hathaway had just said almost shook the essence of his soul.
He wiped his sweat, calmed himself down, and said hoarsely, "Why are you telling me this?"
Hathaway stood up from the sofa. She was taller than Marvin, who had not yet fully grown.
She gently took Marvin's hand and walked to a table.
"My awakening was through this crystal ball."
"I woke up a long time ago, but every time I look at my fate, I become more desperate. Because I can never get rid of that shadow. I am doomed."
"But a few days ago, after you appeared in the Three Rings Tower, I watched it again, and this time, I saw a different result."
Hathaway gently lifted the white cloth covering the crystal ball .
Some chaotic scenes flickered inside the crystal ball.
The final scene freezes on a man with two swords on his waist and a piece of parchment in his hands.
In front of him, there lay a shadow.
"This is..." Marvin's mouth suddenly felt dry.
"You killed him."
Hathaway pointed to the shadow and said, "Not long ago, this man killed Anthony."
"Yet in the destiny I saw, you killed him."
"That's why I came to you."
