Volume 2 Before the Disaster Chapter 46: Treasure Hunt
Dawn gradually arrived, and Marvin ran tirelessly in the Thousand Leaves Forest.
He ran recklessly, and with a pass in his hand, he would be easily let go even if he met the Elf Guards.
After accepting the blessing of the Night King, he felt full of strength.
After advancing to become a Night Walker, his strength underwent a qualitative change.
His attributes were strengthened again, and because his total level (Ranger 5/ Night Walker 1) reached level 6, he gained a new attribute point. Marvin did not hesitate to put it on agility. This was the path he took. Before stacking agility to 25 points, he would not consider putting free attribute points on other attributes.
Chiba Forest is very large, but for Marvin, many places here are very familiar.
That page of the Book of Naaru can be said to be the easiest artifact to find in all of Fenan. Although it is only a damaged copy, it is completely harmless.
"I remember it was in the north of a small elf village. There seemed to be a waterfall there."
"The cold pool at the bottom of the waterfall is extremely cold. Only those with a cold resistance of 5 or above can dive in."
"The Book of Naaru is placed in that pond."
As Marvin headed towards his target, he recalled the hiding place of the Book of Naaru that night.
The Thousand Leaf Forest is so vast that the Elf Village is just a decoration. If there is not enough information, the Book of Naaru will not be found at all.
No wonder no one has discovered it for so many years.
The sun gradually rose, and Marvin felt no discomfort.
However, the feeling of being like a fish in water at night gradually faded away.
After all, Night Walkers are more powerful at night. During the day, the skill of summoning night crows is in a sealed state.
However, the night is eternal and can still be used. This skill can be used up to three times a day.
"Take a break. I guess we're not far ahead."
Marvin stopped and sat under a tree. He took out some dry food and water from the Void Conch and replenished his energy.
He also took this opportunity to take out the magic weapon.
The anger spread like wildfire.
This scimitar was made by Sheen himself, and contains a lot of rare metals and precious materials. Its properties are worthy of the name of a magic weapon.
A scimitar actually comes with two major spells!
Arcane Missiles is naturally a common instant spell. The number of arcane missiles summoned to attack the enemy is determined by the user's intelligence.
With Marvin's intelligence, the number of arcane missiles summoned should be between 3 and 5, which is still very threatening.
This spell can be used three times per day.
Another spell [Raging Fire] is more powerful. It is a second-level witchcraft!
And it's a group attack spell!
The attack power is several times stronger than the Hand of the God of Fire. Although it can only be used once a day, Marvin is already very satisfied.
What made him most grateful was that this scimitar was tailor-made for him by the old blacksmith!
Logically speaking, Marvin cannot equip such a magic weapon with his current attributes - not enough power!
The normal strength requirement for this weapon is: 15 points!
However, when Sheen was forging the weapon, he added a large amount of [Alumina] - an extremely rare and expensive ore - which forcibly reduced the power requirement of the weapon to 12 points, which was just enough for Marvin to use.
This shows the old blacksmith's attention to details.
It was at this point that Marvin truly realized that the weapon that truly suited him should be made by himself.
After all, the one who knows yourself best is yourself.
His previous plan was to never work as a blacksmith again after leaving Eternal Night Paradise.
But after realizing Sheen's good intentions, he slowly changed his mind.
Perhaps the profession of blacksmith is not as boring and useless as one imagines.
…
The only thing that troubled Marvin was that he was practicing dual-sword skills, and the weight and size of the scimitars in his left and right hands should be kept consistent.
Even when wielding two swords, a normal person's right hand is always stronger than his left hand, but if the qualities of the two weapons are too different, it will cause incoordination in the attack.
Of course, occasional changes in rhythm can definitely have unexpected effects. The key is how to use it.
He thought about it, and finally hung the Blazing Rage and the Emerald Dagger on his waist, one on each side.
For the time being, he would use the fangs as a transition weapon. With his skills, it would not be difficult for him to change the sword during the battle.
After getting familiar with the weapons, Marvin set off again, and soon he found the familiar elf village.
…
This village stands in the western part of Chiba Forest.
The population is approximately two hundred, all of whom are purebred wood elves.
The village has its own guard, but these people are generally not strong - the most powerful elves are forcibly conscripted to join the Elven Guard.
Although this practice of forced conscription did protect the Thousand Leaves Forest, it also caused dissatisfaction among the wood elves.
If the personal strength and charisma of the legendary Elf King had not reached an unrivaled peak, the Thousand Leaves Forest would have been in chaos long ago.
When Ma Wen entered the village, he found that there were only a dozen young and middle-aged people in the village, and most of them were elderly and children.
This is a very ordinary elf village.
They live isolated from the world and lead a quiet and harmonious life. Outside the village there is a large field of corn and bananas, which is enough for the wood elves to eat for a long time.
Perhaps because they had rarely seen humans, many elf children gathered around him. They were not at all shy and asked Marvin questions in their half-familiar common language.
Marvin also liked these children. He took out some snacks and shared them with the children. These snacks were Marvin's dry food, which came from the human world and could not be bought in Qianye Forest.
The children got what they wanted and instead pestered Marvin even more, making it impossible for Marvin to get away for a while.
Wood elves and are full of curiosity about the world. This curiosity will gradually fade after they grow up, and most wood elves will eventually develop a mentality of not competing with the world.
The young men seemed much more cautious, but after Marvin showed them his pass, they relaxed their guard.
Not many people can get the pass, and they are all allies of the Wood Elves and will not harm the Wood Elves.
Soon, Marvin was warmly received in the village, especially after he picked out some small items from the River Beach City from the Void Conch like a magic trick. Those things were not worth much, but for the isolated elves, especially the children, they were extremely novel things.
Marvin stayed in the village for a while and asked the village elf leader some questions about the waterfall in the north.
Sure enough, the elder immediately pointed out the exact direction of the waterfall to Marvin.
He also warned Marvin, "Young man, although the waterfall is beautiful, the water below is very cold. Don't go into the pool."
Marvin nodded, thanked the elf elder, and finally avoided the pursuit of the group of elf children and headed north alone.
About half an hour later, he found the waterfall.
The sound of splashing water led him forward, and soon, the cold pond emitting a hint of cool air appeared in front of him.
There is no grass growing around the lake, perhaps because it is too cold.
Ma Wen came to the edge of the pool alone, and sure enough, a gust of cold air came over him.
"Fortunately, I was prepared."
He looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he quietly took out a bottle of azure blue potion and drank it down!
【Quick-acting cold-resistant medicine】!
It can temporarily increase the cold resistance attribute by 8 points. The effect is very abnormal, but the time is also very short, only three minutes!
This was what Marvin asked for from Hathaway, who probably thought that the identity of an Awakener was worth the price, so she simply advanced a bottle of potion to Marvin.
In fact, this potion is very valuable. Although it is not as valuable as the power of a dragon, it can still be sold at a very high price in the market.
After drinking, Marvin did not dare to delay and quickly jumped into the pool!
His swimming skills were pretty good. Although the water was deep, he knew the approximate location. Soon, after trying twice, he finally caught the box stuck in the mud on the third time!
Crash!
Marvin emerged from the cold pond shivering and covered in water, holding the wooden box in his hand.
The cold resistance attribute is increased, but it does not mean that you are not afraid of the cold. It just means that you will not be frozen to death!
There happened to be a small cave nearby, so Marvin went in, took off his clothes, and lit a bonfire.
After he had warmed himself up, he opened the box. The lock on the box had been in disrepair for a long time and broke when he pulled it.
There lay quietly a bundle of parchment and a human skin mask!
