Volume 3 New World Chapter 116 Fallen Angel
That night, the inner courtyard of the castle palace was brightly lit.
Not only did all the members of the Cleland family gather in a palace, but all the other nobles of Lavis also participated.
Everyone knows what tonight means.
Large groups of civilians and nobles surrounded the outer city of the castle.
While celebrating the winter break, they tried to be the first to know the Grand Duke's decision tonight.
Many people are worried, but many others feel they have a sure win.
In short, any dispute involving power and the complex entanglements of human nature will be magnified exponentially.
But in Lavis in the north, it is simpler compared to other countries.
Warlocks always like to speak with their fists.
This is also the reason why, although Turalyon controls almost all the forces in the capital, he still dares not act rashly.
Although the Grand Duke is old and seems likely to die at any time, his former strength still makes him fearful.
Before being promoted to Legend, Turalyon was always a docile sheep in front of the Grand Duke.
Daniela, the same thing.
If you want to control this chaotic country, you must have enough power.
Otherwise, the bloodline of Crilland that has been passed down for many years will eventually be destroyed in their hands.
Everyone is clear about this.
…
Compared to the south, the court banquets in Lavis at least seemed less boring.
I have to say, perhaps because of their Numan blood, the men and women attending the banquet all looked very good.
Most of the men are tall and handsome, and the women are all hot and beautiful.
This is also true for some descendants from side branches.
While Marvin was among the crowd, he looked a little thin and inconspicuous.
However, the position where he sat attracted a lot of people's attention.
Because he sat directly next to the Grand Duke.
As a new face, there was only one possibility for Marvin to sit in that position.
That is, this person has a very important status or energy and is a distinguished guest.
Soon, rumors about Marvin spread throughout the courtyard.
Even at a relatively quiet dinner, Marvin could feel many people's eyes wandering around him.
Among them were those with malicious intentions, those who were jealous, those who were tempting - and most of them were those fiery gazes.
The girls in the north are naturally bold and unrestrained. Although Ma Wen’s handsome face is not their favorite, his powerful strength as rumored is beyond doubt.
They watched Marvin's every move eagerly.
If it weren't for the restrictions of court etiquette, I'm afraid many girls would have come up and chatted with Marvin directly.
Marvin felt a little overwhelmed by this.
Many of these girls were his cousins. Although they were somewhat distant in blood, the faint resonance still existed.
This kind of resonance can easily make both parties feel good about each other.
According to the rules of winter holidays in the past, this day is actually a festival for young children within the Crilland family and its branches to get to know each other and choose their spouses.
All this will take place at the dance after dinner.
It was a bit strange for Marvin to attend this banquet as a guest. What made him even more upset was that he seemed to be a member of the Cleland family.
Although he was born in the White River Valley and his soul came from Earth, the resonance in his blood could not be erased.
All he could do was concentrate on eating.
I have to say that there are still many delicacies in the north that cannot be tasted in the south.
At the dinner, everyone was chatting in low voices with the people around them.
The Archduke seemed unusually silent, which made those around him seem a little depressed.
Daniela on Marvin's side and Turalyon on the other side were both very quiet.
Especially Turalyon, he looked a little nervous.
Compared to the calm and confident manner in which he greeted Marvin in the morning, he seemed like a completely different person.
Perhaps he had just received the notice at the last minute, and the future ruler of the principality would be decided tonight.
Even though he had made a lot of arrangements, if he lost to Daniela in the promotion tonight, then many of his previous arrangements in the capital would be in vain.
So he was a little nervous and unwilling.
Perhaps he had not expected that the Grand Duke would decide on the successor in this way.
To outsiders, this may seem a bit hasty and hasty.
Although strength is the most important thing in Fernando, political skills are equally important in governing a country.
When countries choose their successors, strength is only a reference indicator, not the only one.
But the decision made by the Grand Duke today clearly sent a signal:
In the future, only the strongest among the warlocks will dominate Lavis.
This not only confused Turalyon, but also the others, who were full of questions.
Only Marvin and others know that in the future, no matter which force the leader is, he must be a strong man who can stand on his own.
In the horrific catastrophe, everything was faded away, and only power was the real thing.
…
After an awkward and boring dinner, Marvin filled his stomach.
He chatted politely with some nobles, but Daniela, who was sitting next to him, remained silent.
After the dinner, everyone's eyes were on the Grand Duke.
According to the previous process, after the dinner, there will be a dance party during the winter break.
Young sorcerers will choose their future partners here.
But tonight, something was obviously going to be different.
Before the ball, Daniela and Turalyon, the top two heirs to the principality, will hold a promotion ceremony in front of everyone.
The successful one will take charge of the power of Ravis.
If both fail, the Archduke might make some even more surprising choices.
As for the fact that both of them succeeded, it may not be a good thing for the Principality.
Although the warlocks are extremely united when facing foreign enemies, when it comes to the power of the principality, a more embarrassing situation is likely to arise.
But the Grand Duke promised that no matter what the outcome, he would decide the successor tonight.
This made everyone look forward to this scene very much.
…
After the dinner, the messengers removed everything.
There were only a few chairs left in the hall. Except for the Grand Duke and the guest Marvin, everyone else stood up.
They sat in a circle, quietly waiting for the ceremony to begin.
Marvin looked at Daniela in the crowd.
Coincidentally, the other party also turned around and looked at Marven, and Marven nodded at her with a hint of encouragement.
He believed that with Daniela's talent and the help of the source of God, she would definitely be promoted to a legend.
Who knew that at this moment, Marvin suddenly remembered such a voice in his mind:
"I heard from Grandpa that you refused to marry me?"
Marvin looked embarrassed. After becoming the Lord of Darkness, he naturally became aware of the warlocks' various skills of communicating with the mind.
This time he did not reject the bridge of communication that Daniela quietly established, and explained:
"I just think you shouldn't be confined to the White River Valley."
Daniela snorted coldly: "Do you think I am not worthy of you?"
Marvin was suddenly overwhelmed. He didn't know how the Grand Duke conveyed his meaning, but Daniela was obviously dissatisfied with Marvin's behavior.
So he rolled his eyes and said, "Do you expect me to agree?"
Daniela was suddenly speechless.
She frowned, suddenly unilaterally cancelled the mental communication, turned her head away, and ignored Marvin again.
Marvin could only shake his head speechlessly.
The ceremony was about to begin, and she was still in the mood to worry about these things.
Girls' psychology is really strange.
…
The warlocks' promotion ceremony is actually very simple, far less complicated than that of legendary wizards.
As long as one can find external items that can purify or strengthen one's own bloodline power - or simply awaken one's own bloodline mark, the promotion ceremony will be a piece of cake.
After waiting for both of them to be ready, the Grand Duke personally took out the two small porcelain bottles and handed them to them.
In full view of everyone, the two took the bottle.
The rest of the people were staring at the bottle with burning eyes. Everyone present knew that this was a treasure that could stimulate the growth of bloodline power.
This is what almost every warlock dreams of.
It’s a pity that not everyone can get this thing.
Just like the [Golden Blood] in the Stone Mountain, it was not easy for Marvin to obtain it.
The origin of God is a treasure that is more noble and pure than golden blood.
It is the source of power for the ancient gods, angels, demons, and the Numans.
When Turalyon took over the Origin of God, his expression was slightly excited and his whole body was shaking.
He has waited too long for this day.
On the other hand, Daniela seemed unusually calm.
She is full of confidence in herself.
In fact, she once told Marvin that she didn't even need this little bit of divine origin, and she could be promoted to a legend in the near future.
This is purely an instinct, but the instinct of a warlock, especially a sorceress, is very reliable.
But Marvin’s answer was still very powerful: the Cataclysm is coming soon, and the sooner you can be promoted to Legend, the sooner you should be promoted. This is the principle.
The Archduke shared the same view.
Daniela's attempt to avoid wasting the source of God was in vain.
So under the gaze of everyone, the two of them opened the porcelain bottles one after another.
The origin of God emerged.
They did not choose to devour this bit of divine origin at the first moment, but instead each stimulated the power of their bloodlines!
All of a sudden, two powerful auras erupted in the hall, vaguely forming a trend of confrontation!
The east side of the hall seemed to have entered a world of ice and snow in an instant!
Daniela, in the form of an ice angel, is incredibly beautiful, and she also has a kind of arrogance and coldness in her bones that ordinary women do not possess.
Ice angels are a type of ancient angels, and are not on the same level as the God-created angels.
She began to chant a spell in a low voice.
Faint purple runes began to float on her body surface, wrapping the origin of God within them and slowly rotating.
Although Marvin is not a spellcaster, the Lord of Darkness is still very sensitive to runes, spells and the like.
He could feel that these runes were miniature alchemical arrays.
That bit of divine origin was being devoured by Daniela bit by bit.
Things seem to be going very well.
On the other side of the hall, the atmosphere seemed a little dark and gloomy.
Marvin turned his head and saw a broken force spreading continuously.
Turalyon also changed his form!
But what surprised Marvin was that this guy's warlock form was actually a fallen angel!
There are actually two ancient angels in the Crilland family!
Comparing my beast form, shadow form, and King Kong form, the bloodlines of these two are simply better, okay?
Ma Wen couldn't help but complain in his heart.
Angela's Violent Bear, Shadow Form, and Vajra Indestructibility are naturally all good amplification skills.
But compared with the two heirs of Lavis, they are nothing.
No wonder I hadn’t had any vision of blood awakening before. It was too weak.
If it weren't for Bending's luck, I would never have been able to become a Shapeshifter.
…
Turalyon in his fallen angel form is clearly closer to the devil.
His eyes were cold and murderous, and his previous humble and polite image disappeared without a trace.
Instead, there was an air of ruin and destruction. His eyes were filled with the arrogance of a king.
He was even more violent than Daniela. He did not even use any spells to assist him, but instead directly devoured the Origin of God!
Maybe he couldn't wait any longer.
The body of a fallen angel can fully withstand the violent power of the origin of God.
Marvin took a deep breath.
Both of them have quasi-legendary powers, and both are unable to improve due to the shackles of their bloodline.
But these two points of divine origin may change everything.
Marvin knew that the reason why he had never heard of the name Turalyon in his previous life was that he must have been secretly dealt with by Daniela.
After all, the script of the previous life was: Daniela successfully obtained the mystery of the ancestors and controlled the head of the great devil. She would never hand over the origin of the gods to Turalyon. After that, she was probably promoted to a legend, while Turalyon did not, and finally he could only be ruthlessly eliminated by the Snow Queen.
But in this life, because of the deal between Marvin and the Grand Duke, Turalyon also has the qualifications to enjoy the origin of God.
Everything became a little different.
Marvin closed his eyes and activated [Sense the Earth].
Things like promotion to legend cannot be seen with the eyes and can only be perceived with the heart.
In his opinion, the aura of the two people, one on the left and one on the right, was rising madly under the catalysis of the Origin of God!
In the hall, the forces of darkness and ice and snow contended against each other.
Most of the people were already retreating or even forced out of the hall due to their lack of strength to resist the aura released by these two people.
Only six people remained.
In addition to Marvin and the Archduke, there are a pair of young warlock twin brothers and two old men.
Marvin was not surprised at all by the Grand Duke and the two elders.
The handsome twin boys aroused Marvin's curiosity.
"These two people are also quasi-legends?"
"Why are they not qualified to compete for Lavis' authority?"
Marvin was a little curious.
The Grand Duke beside him seemed to sense Marvin's gaze and suddenly whispered:
"They are not from the Crilland family."
Marvin showed a hint of surprise.
Although they are not members of the Cleland family, they were able to attend such an important occasion. It seems that the twin brothers have other origins.
He was about to continue asking, but at this moment, two auras suddenly exploded in the hall!
The colors of darkness and ice blue suddenly exploded to the extreme.
Crash! Snow and ice filled the sky. The beautiful ice angel successfully transformed and became a legend!
On the other side, in the dark fog, Turalyon walked out step by step, his face full of confidence.
Marvin clapped his hands: "That's good, two legends."
He looked at the Grand Duke: "I wonder how you will solve this problem?"
In his opinion, two legends were definitely not a good outcome. If the Grand Duke did not handle it properly, the Principality of Lavis might even suffer a heavy blow from within.
