Volume 4: The Cataclysm Chapter 102: The Hunt Begins!
Marvin was running quickly in the grim hunting ground .
But compared to before, his speed has dropped significantly!
The ghost did not deceive him. In this eerie autumn hunting ground, his legendary profession, Lord of the Dark Night, lost all effect.
Legend rules are invalid!
He was only at the level of an ordinary master at level 20.
The only good thing is that the same should be true for the rest of the people.
Marvin's strength lies in his many multi-tasking skills. Both the Shaman and the Gunner can help him in this hunt.
Ahead, the light from the bonfire grew brighter.
Dark Vision was not lost because it did not fall within the scope of legendary rules, but was a gift from the Night King. Even the God of the Wilderness could not directly kill this rule.
This made Ma Wen feel much more at ease.
Without his dark vision, his powers would be further restricted.
What's more, he has become accustomed to the feeling of having super vision anytime and anywhere - if he suddenly loses this ability, he may not be able to adapt for a while.
After all, his long-term reliance on dark vision has resulted in his [Sound Positioning] and [Blind Fighting] skills not being very high.
Because he didn't quite understand the nature of this hunt, Marvin still wanted to find a place to stay first.
But looking around, the lonely wilderness was dotted with small hills and mountains, and there were no buildings.
Only a faint light of fire could be seen under a hill not far away.
Marvin could see clearly that it was a bonfire.
And the shape of the campfire was very similar to what he saw in the illusion.
His instinct told him strongly that there might be something to be gained if he went over to take a look.
Since there was no one around, Marvin took action directly.
…
As he got closer to the hill, Marvin discovered that the mountains here were still undulating.
From a distance it looks like a small hill, but when you get closer you'll find that it's quite high.
The bonfire was located in a valley, almost like a sheltered valley.
There were some scattered wood next to the campfire, and besides that, there was a box!
There was a lot of straw under the box and a piece of animal skin on top.
There was a kettle on the fire. The kettle had already boiled, with a lot of steam rising and boiling.
He could feel a different kind of warmth.
"Why do I feel like I have suddenly returned to the most ancient times?"
Ma Wen wiped his nose, feeling something strange.
There was a shadow deep in the valley. He examined it carefully and found it was a very small cave.
The cave was only about half a person's height, and Marvin could only walk in by bending over. He had no idea what was in the cave.
If it was in Fenan, Marvin could judge based on his experience that this was most likely a goblin cave; but in the Bloody Wasteland, could there be ordinary goblins?
What's more, this is the Autumn Hunting Ground which is even more dangerous than the Bloody Wasteland!
"The water seems to have just boiled. Could there be a hunter?"
Marvin carefully checked the trail but found no footprints or other signs.
If this is really a hunter's temporary base, then this hunter must be a very experienced and cunning guy.
Thinking of this, Marvin couldn't help feeling a little heavy in his heart.
The invalidation of legendary rules not only means the loss of legendary abilities and domains, but also means that Qingye cannot be used.
He happened to have no good knife on him, so he really could only use the hunting machete he bought from the ghost.
However, it was obvious at first glance that this scimitar was not a good product. The blade was covered with copper rust. Marvin suspected that it broke by itself because he had chopped it too hard.
Normally he was used to using two swords, and suddenly he felt uncomfortable holding the sword with one hand.
After thinking about it, he took out a pair of muskets from the storage device and put the scimitar on his waist.
This is a top-grade magic weapon given to him by Constantine, and it is considered to be top-notch among the equipment of the Firearms.
One of the two pistols is named [Astaroya] and the other is named [Satan], which are the names of a lord of the abyss and a powerful devil respectively.
Marvin had used them in previous battles with pretty good results. Although not as terrifying as Zi Yao, they were already top-notch among Fenan's thermal weapons.
He estimated that without a good sword, he might not be able to gain much advantage in close combat.
So he simply crammed at the last minute and put a lot of experience points into the [Firegunner] profession.
He didn't care about the experience penalty for his second part-time job and directly upgraded his Firearms to level 10.
So he suddenly transformed himself into a top-notch .
All skill points, except for the basic allocation (invested in specialties such as precision shooting), are all invested in [McKens Fighting Technique].
This fighting technique can greatly improve his combat ability below the legendary level.
Although it might be useless after regaining his legendary skills, it can be used now.
No matter what, just survive first.
Thinking of this, Marvin prepared to open the box and see what was inside.
Who knew that at this moment, a black shadow suddenly jumped into his perception!
"It's haunting."
Marvin's body did not move.
His senses of the earth were instantly opened, and everything nearby was within his grasp.
In the grass not far away, the soil was slightly raised, and a dark shadow was approaching him little by little!
He didn't even need to look, he could tell who the person was just by the boiling warlock blood in his body.
"Who on earth is instigating this Blade Demon?"
"Although I have offended many people, it seems that I haven't had much dealings with the Abyss yet, right?"
"Could it be Balkh's father? Why is he so quick in reacting?"
He didn't think much about it and continued with his actions.
On the surface, he still walked towards the box.
In fact, his hands were already tightly grasping two muskets.
He knew that the Blade Demon had a very strong physique, and it would be difficult to kill him with just two muskets.
In this area, legendary rules are invalid, and the Blade Demon, who is good at melee combat, has the upper hand.
But Marvin wasn't afraid of him either.
He has his own way of dealing with demons.
The blade demon is still sneaking up.
His movements were very patient; hiding under the soil was his most powerful ability. If it weren't for the incredible ability that Master Kang En had taught Marvin, it would probably have gone unnoticed.
He was waiting, waiting for the moment when Marvin bent down to open the box.
That was the moment when Marvin was most unprepared.
"Kill this human and the mission will be complete."
At this moment, there was only Marvin in the Blade Demon's eyes.
The next second, Marvin bent over.
whoosh!
The dark shadow behind him suddenly jumped up.
…
On the cold hunting ground, figures appeared one after another.
Most of the people looked pale, but they managed to remain calm.
In a corner of the hunting ground, a girl with crimson eyes looked at the four men with ill intentions around her and seemed to be talking to herself:
"So, the hunt begins?"
"Let's do it..." The Whispering Bug said lazily, "Although I don't know who opened the Autumn Hunting Ground, it's definitely not the God of the Wilderness... He must not be so bored now. If he has the power to open the Autumn Hunting Ground, he will definitely choose to wake up directly. And if it's someone else, then there's nothing to be afraid of."
"Kill them. They're not good people anyway. If you get enough hunter marks, you can enter the real Wild Hall."
"Then you will have a chance to get the Grip of Cold Light."
"Teacher, you don't have to take care of my feelings." Isabel said calmly: "Even if the four of them were good people, I would still do it."
The Winter Assassin was speechless after hearing what the little girl said.
The other four people were puzzled.
The four of them were originally adventurers from the vicinity of Holy Light City and came from a secondary plane.
Due to some coincidences, they arrived at the bloody wasteland, experienced a life-and-death experience, and became legendary strong men.
This time, they came here to try their luck because they heard that the Grip of Cold Light appeared in Dongye of Holy Light City.
As a result, he didn't encounter the Grip of Cold Light, but met a beautiful girl instead.
She looked a little neurotic and often talked to herself.
The four of them suggested going together, and Isabel did not refuse.
However, when the black vortex dragged them into the Autumn Hunting Ground, their true nature was exposed.
"I'm sorry, little girl." One of them licked his lips and said, "We all need the Hunter's Mark. It seems that we can only borrow yours first..."
However, before he finished speaking, a cold light flashed -
Heads fell!
"How many times have I told you not to waste your talents!" Winter Assassin shouted in Isabel's ear.
"Teacher, I didn't." Isabel said softly, her eyes became a little excited:
"In this place, their reactions and speed seem to have slowed down."
"As for me, the rules here don't seem to affect me."
The other three men's eyes widened when they saw their companion's headless body bleeding profusely.
However, it was too late to escape now.
…
In the gloomy hunting ground, a team with abundant holy power appeared.
"It is indeed the territory of the God of the Wilderness."
"If we can enter the Wilderness Hall this time and obtain the Grip of Cold Light, we will definitely receive a reward from God!"
A divine magician looked at the empty sky in the distance without fear and shouted loudly: "We will definitely succeed!"
Behind him, a total of six temple warriors silently drew their swords.
The sword light flickered, but the emblem of the Dream Temple was exceptionally bright.
The divine magician looked at the paladin who was carrying the girl on his back and said gently:
"You can change your beliefs, that's the best way to deal with it."
"The God of Truth is dead, and the glory of my God shines throughout the universe. The Dream Temple is your final destination."
"This mission is to prove whether your faith is sincere. If you help me complete this mission, I will complete a safe faith conversion ceremony for you. At the same time, I will also lift the curse on this little girl as agreed."
The paladin's face looked extremely painful.
But when he thought of the horrific scene when the little girl behind him cursed, he finally lowered his proud head.
After failing to seek help in Holy Light City, he finally agreed to the Dream Temple's request.
Change your beliefs.
Abandon the God of Truth and believe in the God of Dreams.
Of course, they did not give up immediately. Considering that the Paladin's Libra of Truth would most likely be used in this mission, the divine magician postponed the faith conversion ceremony and promised to help as long as Griffin assisted them in completing this mission.
Griffin had no choice.
"The God of Truth is dead."
“But the truth never dies.”
The paladin said calmly, "Let's go. I can sense that a group of monsters with the hunter's mark are gathering ahead."
"The sooner you obtain enough Hunter's Marks and enter the Wilderness Hall, the better it will be for your mission."
…
Most of the legendary warriors have appeared in every corner of the hunting ground.
Some of them met and fought with others at the very beginning; some were still groping alone, and some were trapped deep in the monster's lair and were directly submerged by the sea of monsters.
And at this moment, in an inconspicuous corner, the space suddenly distorted.
A little girl of about twelve or thirteen appeared in this space very abruptly.
The rest of the people were sucked in by the vortex.
She was the only one who actually walked into this hunting ground on her own.
The moon in the sky twinkled, as if to mean something.
The little girl looked at the moon coldly and murmured to herself:
"Vanya, it's time to fulfill your promise."
"And that locust...it's time to return the power that belongs to Anzedi to us."
She was holding a flower in her hand. The flower had five colored petals and two places seemed to be missing.
She looked at the colorful flower silently, and the voice of an old woman emerged in her mind:
"Only by reshaping the power of Anzedi can you become the true Witch King."
"We have already taken back five of the seven types of witchcraft powers. There are two left. It's up to you."
Thinking of this, she strode straight into the depths of the wilderness!
There, a tall palace was looming.
…
In the col, by the campfire, next to the storage box.
The moment the Blade Demon showed his murderous intent, Marvin reacted quickly.
He rushed forward and dodged the fierce attack of the Blade Demon.
The left foot stepped on the box and the body twisted sharply!
Bang!
Two backhand shots hit the Blade Demon's chest with incredible accuracy!
At such a close distance, it is still difficult to avoid the attack of the musket!
The Blade Demon's attack was immediately blocked. Although his body was very strong, he was still at a disadvantage after resisting two musket attacks.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ma Wen retreated a distance.
The next second, the muskets in his hands suddenly disappeared.
[Skills in handwork and weapon switching]!
The two pistols suddenly turned into a shotgun!
"Constantine said that the bullets in this thing are specifically designed to kill demons. I wonder if it's useful."
This thought flashed through Marvin's mind.
He pulled the trigger without hesitation!
boom!
A powerful recoil pushed him toward the hillside.
