Volume 2 Before the Disaster Chapter 9 Night Walker
Marvin did not answer him. He just came to the Plague Messenger silently and carefully searched his body for a while.
Guderian frowned, obviously dissatisfied .
However, it was Marvin who killed the Plaguebringer in the end, so it was natural for him to search for the spoils.
Marvin didn't take much, just a purse with a few wizard gold coins in it and three charged magic wands.
These are the lowest level charging wands, but they are very expensive. Two of them have been used, but they can still be used after being charged.
All three staffs were attached with a first-ring of witchcraft. Marvin checked the runes briefly and found that the only usable staff was attached with [Rain of Broken Ice].
A group attack spell with very general effect, which is very useful for scaring groups of kobolds or gnolls.
Marvin didn't dare take the rest.
The Plague Messenger is a believer of the God of Plague. If he takes something he shouldn’t and is targeted by the God of Plague, Marvin will be in tears.
After collecting the spoils, Marvin stood up gently and said in a deep voice:
"You believe what a killer from the Shadow Spider Society says?"
Guderian looked at Marvin deeply.
Although he had just been fighting fiercely with the Black Butcher, he also saw Marvin display amazing skills.
This guy is definitely not an ordinary person. And the only famous swordsman in Hetan City recently seems to be the double-blade mask.
But he just shook his head and turned aside.
Marvin left calmly.
The Silver Light Knight was originally here to capture or kill the Plague Messenger. Now that his goal has been achieved, he naturally doesn't want to create any more complications.
Even if Marvin was really the Masked Man, he saved his life. If Marvin hadn't taken action, under the siege of Plaguebringer and Black Jack, even a strong man like him would have fallen. So Guderian simply turned a blind eye and let Marvin go.
…
After killing the Plague Messenger, the evil incident in River Beach City will not be settled immediately.
Because the Plaguebringer has already sown black worms in some poor guys, the black poison will continue to spread. It's just that the scale is not as large as recorded in the game. To a certain extent, Marvin has affected the progress of his previous life. I don't know if it will have any impact on what happened later.
3,000 points of general experience greatly alleviated Marvin’s current urgent needs.
You know, it takes a lot of experience to advance to the next profession. Even if you want to simply upgrade the Ranger to level 6, you need 4,800 experience points. Marvin's career advancement route has been planned long ago.
There are many advanced professions for Rangers, and they are varied, at least more than fifteen, making it the most complicated of all professions. Ultimately, it is because of the comprehensiveness of the first-level profession of Ranger.
You can shoot from a distance, fight in close combat, tame wild beasts and communicate with nature, so there are all kinds of ways to advance.
But there is only one who can eventually advance to the Lord of Darkness!
【Night Walker】!
A seemingly ordinary second-level profession, not as ferocious as the [Black Butcher], nor as cold as the [Elite Shooter]. This is a very, very unpopular advanced profession, and all the skills seem to be relatively mediocre. At least in the game, at the beginning, very few ranger players chose the Night Walker profession.
This unpopular advanced profession not only has mediocre capabilities, but is also very troublesome to advance to. No one likes to do such a thankless task.
It was not until later, when the deeper attributes of the Night Walkers were discovered, that this group of peculiar rangers with explosive combat power at night became popular!
All this is because the profession of Night Walker has a hidden specialty - [Night Killing].
【Night Walk Murder】:
——Level 1 Effect: When you are at night, your attack power is +2
——Special effect: Every time you kill a creature at night, you will obtain its soul fragment.
…
As these soul fragments continue to accumulate, they will increase the level of the Night Killing specialty.
The first level of Night Kill only provides an additional two points of attack power.
But later on, it will become very, very terrifying. Special effects such as attack power, attack speed, and even armor penetration will appear!
A night walker with the third-level night-time killing expertise is fully capable of chopping down three masters of the same level head-on at night!
Therefore, the profession of Night Walker was once called "Night Devil"!
They are the devil in the dark night. When night falls, it is time for them to wield their butcher knives!
Although this personal expertise cannot completely make up for the mediocrity of skills, it has also allowed many masters to emerge in this profession.
It can be said that this is a very extreme profession. You feel a little weak during the day, but extremely strong at night.
This extreme situation also makes this profession very unstable.
but!
Marvin is an exception!
He is not short of killing skills. He is proficient in all the skills of the Phantom Assassin. He can use standard technical actions frequently in battle, and then pay killing experience to learn powerful skills. He has various ways to make up for the mediocrity and shortcomings of the Night Walker.
"What's more, after the catastrophe, the collapse of the cosmic magic pool attracted an ancient star beast to approach Fenan!"
"Although the star beast was killed by the combined efforts of the gods, its body turned into a shadow, covering the sky of Fenan."
"From then on, the nights became longer and the days shorter in Fenan Continent, with an average of 14 hours of darkness and 10 hours of daylight every day!"
It is precisely because of this situation that Marvin firmly chooses the route of Dark Night Domination.
Night Walker is undoubtedly one of the most suitable professions for the upcoming Fenan environment!
However, if Marvin wants to advance to become a night walker, he still needs a mentor.
This kind of secret profession is not as simple as a ranger, which can be done by simply getting a letter of recommendation.
The Night Walkers are organized. They don't have many members, but if you want to join their organization, you must go through a strict assessment.
However, Marvin remembered that there happened to be a member of the Night Walker organization in the Third Ring Tower area!
But that guy... seems to have some quirks in my impression.
…
In any case, after a head-on confrontation with the Black Butcher, Marvin deeply felt his own shortcomings!
Although the upgrade is very fast, it is still not enough. I can’t even protect myself, let alone protect the people I cherish?
Advancement is already on the agenda, and the improvement of strength is multi-faceted.
For example, it was time to get a pair of good machetes, and Marvin knew a place where he might be able to get the weapons he wanted.
Maybe, you can also improve your scimitar mastery level.
After all, for a former Lord of the Night, his scimitar mastery level is just at the [entry level]. This is really not right!
But before leaving River Beach City, he needed to do another thing.
…
At the city gate, a shadow approached .
The second-level Phantom Assassin!
Marvin was hiding behind a section of the city wall. When he saw him coming, he walked out quickly.
"Owner!"
When Kyle Amber saw Marvin, he immediately performed a standard elf etiquette.
As a creation of the ancient elven god, although Amber can no longer continue to improve her strength, her current strength as a second-level phantom assassin is also a force that cannot be ignored by Marvin's men.
In order to kill the two barbarian warriors, Amber and Agate both used life-threatening attacks, and it took a long time before they gradually recovered a little.
Their current strength is not at its peak, which shows how fierce this skill is.
Not only is he cruel to others, he is also cruel to himself.
The fact that Amber appeared in River Beach City was naturally Marvin's previous arrangement.
He let the Bobcat Squad leave safely in order to follow the clues and catch the mastermind behind the scenes!
In fact, just as Cathead left, Amber secretly followed them back to Riverside City through the back door.
"Did you find anything?" Marvin asked in a deep voice.
The Bobcat Squad is just a group of adventurers, so Marvin doesn't care much about them.
What he cares about is the people behind the scenes.
"Yes." Amber said straightforwardly, " The person who hired Verne to cause trouble has been found out."
"His name is Dosiloa, the youngest son of the mayor of a northern city-state, and he just arrived in River Beach City a while ago."
"He is very rich, and is said to be a relative of the current acting mayor of River Beach City."
"I overheard his conversation with Verne. He seemed to want something in the White River Valley. But from his tone, it seemed that because of something... he was planning to delay his attack on the White River Valley."
