Volume 3 New World Chapter 1 The Prince and the Rebels

After traveling through the long tunnel of time and space, and under the guidance of the Lighthouse of Time, Marvin and his companions finally set foot on the land of the Puthen plane.

All illusions disappeared, and their feet stepped on solid soil.

There is green in front of me.

This is a forest nearby, and the air smells pleasantly of fragrant grass.

Ma Wen couldn't help but look back, but unfortunately there was also a gloomy scene behind him.

Hathaway's cold eyes were the last impression he had when he left Fernando.

"No matter what, since we have chosen to start this journey, we must persevere to the end."

"Although the time flow rate is 21 to 1, I still don't have much time left."

"Stopping or looking back will not help. The only thing you can do is move forward!"

Marvin's eyes became gradually firmer.

"let's go."

The nine dark warriors nodded silently, followed Marvin closely, and quickly moved through the forest!

The Pusen plane has finally welcomed the arrival of the first batch of visitors from the main material world since its birth!

…

The kingdom of heaven and the kingdom of shadows.

The shadow prince Glenos, who was sensing the faiths of various places, suddenly woke up!

The following scene suddenly appeared before his eyes :

The alien visitor who descended from the sky, the lush and dense forest, and that fleeting shadow!

"It's him!"

Glenos gnashed his teeth in hatred!

"How dare you, a tiny mortal, trespass into my world."

"This time, I will make sure you never come back!"

A gloomy glint flashed in the Shadow Prince's eyes.

…

Puten plane, Dongji Snow Mountain, Shadow Temple.

The beautiful high priestess was praying with her head down. Candles were flickering in front of her and the shadows under the candles were constantly distorted.

"The day eventually passes away..."

"Shadows are eternal..."

She did not feel bored praying day after day.

Although it has been a long time since the gods responded to the prayers of the divine magicians in the Pushen plane, she still did so with gratitude.

She was originally an orphan, and was raised by the Shadow Temple. The previous high priest selected her from among thousands of orphans and promoted her to be the new high priest.

After becoming the high priest of the Great Temple of Shadows, she felt the power of God for the first time!

God opened a window for her, and she saw the world outside, which was so vast and boundless.

And I am so insignificant.

God is great, mortals are small, and if you want peace, you must take refuge in the shadow of the Supreme.

She prayed devoutly.

Of course, as usual, God did not respond to her. But she was still satisfied. This was her daily homework, and only by persisting in completing it would she feel a sense of relief.

Ten minutes later, the high priest slowly stood up and left the extremely noble prayer hall.

The pitch-black door was slowly closed, and two armored guards stood solemnly.

Not far away, a senior priest ran over and whispered in his ear:

“Lord Capella, His Majesty the King is waiting for you to discuss how to deal with the new group of rebels …”

Capela said calmly: "How long has he been waiting?"

"About an hour and a half." The senior priest said cautiously.

"Let him wait a little longer."

Capella said expressionlessly, “Last time, his son arbitrarily lowered the taxes in his territory without the consent of the Temple. This kind of provocation to the Temple cannot be forgiven lightly.”

The priest wiped his sweat and said, "Prince Aragon has been deposed... His Majesty the King has also expressed his position..."

“Not enough.” Capella said calmly, “These foolish people don’t know how to be grateful. The power of faith they provide to the Father God is getting less and less. If this continues, the Father God’s eyes will no longer be focused on this place, and this place will become an abandoned place.”

“Tell the king that the Royal Family of Nottingham is what it is today not because of the nobleness of his bloodline, but because of the favor of God the Father. He knows what to do.”

"Come on, take me to see the latest batch of orphans."

The high priest walked down the white marble stairs gracefully without looking back.

Beside the luxurious carriage, all the civil and military officials of the Kingdom including the King, bowed their heads in silence, watching the High Priest leave.

A moment later, the senior priest conveyed the high priest's intention to the king.

The old king was stunned on the spot.

The senior priest showed a trace of pity.

The Prince of Aragon is the king's only son.

It's really hard to bear that he died like this.

…

Marvin and his group continued to move forward in the forest, and soon they finally reached the edge of the forest.

There is a plain in the distance, and in the center of the plain, a majestic city stands proudly.

To the north of the city is a chaotic mountainous area where one can faintly smell the scent of gunpowder.

"White Elephant City."

Standing at the edge of the woods, Marvin looked at the city from afar, and a map immediately appeared in his mind.

He still has fresh memories of the Pushen plane.

This plane is not big and can only accommodate one or two kingdoms at best.

In fact, the entire Pushen plane has a population of less than 200,000, and the regular army does not exceed 10,000.

The area within the wilderness is probably not as large as the coast of Fernando.

In the entire Pushen plane, more than 70% of the area is forest, and the remaining terrain is divided into mountains and plains.

There is abundant rainfall and many rivers here, making it a good place to develop agriculture.

Here, the supreme one is the Shadow Temple, and the Black Robe High Priest holds a position above all others.

Even a king might not have the courage to speak harshly to a high-ranking priest.

This is a typical world controlled by theocracy.

Of course, not everyone is willing to submit to the gods - this is a turmoil that has been deeply engraved in the blood of mankind since ancient times.

Where there is repression, there is resistance.

As far as Marvin knows, there is only one Kingdom of Nottingham in the Pousen plane. The king is Nottingham XIII, who is old and incompetent, and is basically a puppet of the black-robed high priest.

The kingdom is not united as the Shadow Prince has not performed miracles for a long time (performing miracles consumes a lot of divine energy), which results in the faith here not being so firm.

Coupled with the high-pressure rule of the temple, the extremely high taxes even made many lords of the territories unbearable.

Few civil and military officials in the court were satisfied with the temple.

But they had no choice. Here, God was supreme, and the power of divine magicians was well documented. They had also witnessed it with their own eyes, and they dared not resist at all.

So despite their dissatisfaction, they have chosen to be patient over the years.

But human patience always has its limits.

About thirty years ago, the lords of the three northern territories colluded with each other, raised the banner of rebellion, and prepared to overthrow the tyranny of the temple.

The rebels were very popular among the people, capturing cities and territories along the way, and the early stages were very smooth.

However, later on, the previous high priest personally left the Dongji Snow Mountain and led a thousand temple paladins to fight a decisive battle with the rebels.

Under the terrifying magic, the rebels were defeated at the first blow.

Of the three northern lords, only one escaped; the other two were all executed.

From then on, these armies turned to the mountains and forests in the north, relying on the terrain to deal with the kingdoms.

Thirty years passed, and the power of the rebels continued to grow.

The White Elephant City is the border city where the Kingdom of Nottingham keeps the rebels out of the territory.

Guarding this place is the king's only son, the brave Prince Aragorn.

In Marvin's impression, this prince was quite popular among the people. He was very dissatisfied with the high taxes imposed by the temple, and took the lead in reducing taxes in his own territory and White Elephant City, but he was persecuted by the temple. In the end, he was sentenced to death, his hands and feet were broken, and he was imprisoned in a rotten water dungeon in the temple. His end was very miserable.

After that, the rebels took advantage of the uncertainty among the people of Baixiang City and chose to attack again.

This time, they also had smooth sailing and reached the heart of . Because of the lessons learned last time, this time the rebels trained many warlocks and a small number of wizards who could compete with the priests.

The battle became intense.

But the miracle of the Shadow Prince changed everything.

He appeared in the form of an eighteenth-level holy spirit, and with the help of artifact projection and the use of the Great Prophecy, he destroyed the entire rebel army in one fell swoop.

In his previous life, Marvin, who was at level 18, happened to enter the Pusen plane by accident at this time.

Although he finally got the Secret Shadow Diamond in a very embarrassing way, he died several times!

This time, he came to this world ahead of time, hoping to change the course of history.

"I wonder what time it is now. Has Prince Aragorn been recalled to the kingdom?"

Marvin thought quietly.

After a while, he ordered the dark warriors to lurk in the forest and wait for his orders.

He himself disguised himself as an ordinary farmer and sneaked into Baixiang City.

…

The bustling White Elephant City is no different from the streets of Fenan.

There aren't many exotic styles here. Most people still have blonde hair and blue eyes, and a few have black eyes, which makes Marvin look particularly friendly.

The public security in White Elephant City is very good, thanks to the governance of Prince Aragon.

Marvin walked on the street, observing everything carefully and collecting intelligence.

First, he must determine the time point where he is.

The Shadow Prince would definitely notice my arrival at the Pusen plane, but he would not be able to pull me out from the vast sea of people in the entire plane.

He could only mobilize the temple to deal with himself.

And I am not completely without advantages.

Conquering a plane with just nine people was Marvin's joking slogan.

To conquer a world, the most important thing is to mobilize the people of that world.

Both the rebels and the Prince of Aragon are worthy targets for cooperation.

Marvin's goal is simple, to completely overthrow the Shadow Temple here and establish a free kingdom.

If possible, it would be nice to turn the Pushen plane into a vassal state of the White River Valley.

After all, the Secret Shadow Diamond and the Twin Flowers of Fate that he wanted were both in the Great Temple of Shadows!

Going alone to rob or steal is courting death.

…

Just as Marvin was daydreaming, a shout suddenly :

"The Temple is executing the rebels!"
