Volume 5: The Cataclysm Chapter 44
For the remaining human group in Fenan, the news from the north was absolutely devastating.
Most people were shocked and stunned, because as one of the few remaining human forces, the White River Valley and the three towns in the north did not seem to have much grudges against each other.
And now that the gods have descended, shouldn’t the two major forces join forces?
This is what people are most confused about.
Of course, smart people have also realized that the North seems to have vaguely prepared for the coming of the gods.
The fact that Eve stood firmly on the side of the God of Morning Light and Guardian and made the Son of Morning Light the first Pope says a lot in itself.
In the eyes of many people, the relationship between Marvin and the gods is almost incompatible.
This young man from the White River Valley has been challenging the bottom line of the Heavenly Kingdom with an indomitable attitude from the very beginning.
He seemed to have never known what it meant to fear God .
Even in the terrible catastrophe, he was the first to stand up and slaughter the first woman who openly deified herself since the Third Age.
With this explanation, the split between the North and the South seems to be explained.
However, only a very few people know what secrets are hidden behind Eve's decision.
Of course, Marvin was not among these people.
But ever since the battle at the Tower of Babel, he knew that Eve had become his enemy.
He didn't know the reason, but he just needed to know the current situation.
The North and the Kingdom of God have joined forces, something that has never happened in the history of the game.
Obviously, when the timeline moves to the present point in time, because too many things have been changed by Marvin, many things in this life are completely different from those in the game.
Completely different.
So it was impossible for Marvin to look at all this with the same eyes as before.
He calmly accepted Eve's announcement, but during these days, the White River Valley did not announce anything to the outside world.
Because of the existence of absolute asylum, no one except a very small number of people can enter the White River Valley.
People are very curious about how the usually strong Marvin will respond to Eve's declaration of war.
According to Anna's intelligence, the three towns in the north will conduct a cleanup of the surrounding chaotic monsters in the near future.
After that, they will send an army south to attack the White River Valley, with the primary goal of killing Marvin.
Regardless of whether the intelligence was true or not, that announcement alone was enough to make everyone in the White River Valley nervous.
joke!?
The newly established Rose Principality actually threatened to kill the lord of the White River Valley? Lord Marvin, the great hero who repeatedly saved mankind?
The residents of the White River Valley were the first to disagree!
The same was true of most of the people who later migrated to the White River Valley.
Because as a community of interests, they and Marvin are in the same boat, and they prosper and suffer together.
Once the announcement was made, many people had already quietly wiped their weapons and began to prepare for the war that was bound to come sooner or later.
However, they did not know that the protagonist who was subject to this announcement was still leisurely strolling in some corners of the White River Valley.
…
"Your [Heart Stealer] is hiding a [Black Sheep]. Am I right?"
In a cabin in the northern mines, a strange trio played Locke.
The long-lost Laura smiled slyly, played the truth card in her hand, and finally sentenced Marvin to death.
Marvin smiled helplessly and finally nodded.
His talent in Locke cards is really not as good as that of this clever female liar.
But he had never expected that the girl he had rescued from the jackals would now play such an important role in the operation of the White River Valley.
What was even more unexpected was that despite this, she was still exactly the same talkative and cunning girl .
She still wears her favorite plaid skirt, likes to bully and tease the honest little halflings, and likes to use some little-known tricks when playing Locke cards - at the same time, she controls the financial power of the White River Valley.
It is difficult for many people to connect these two identities together, but in Marvin's eyes, Laura is Laura, and she is still the same as before.
This is a very gratifying thing.
Since traveling through time, he has been doing everything in such a hurry that he has not had time to contact many of his friends.
However, there are many people who stand behind him from beginning to end. Anna is one of them, and so is Laura.
…
"You really don't have any ideas?"
Laura gently put away the deck of Locke cards and looked at Marvin with her big eyes blinking: "Although I know nothing about fighting, this matter seems to be very serious."
The little follower beside him nodded vigorously.
Like most people, they were somewhat concerned about the situation in Marvin and the White River Valley.
After all, war is something that most people fear.
Marvin shook his head slightly and smiled: "It will be fine."
Laura curled her lips: "Based on my understanding of you, when you say something like this, you are probably going to solve it by yourself, right?"
Marvin laughed and didn't deny anything.
Winnie was still half asleep in the Tower of Babel.
Constantine and Sophie have returned, the Night Walker headquarters has been fully occupied, and the White River Valley has officially completed an alliance agreement with the Stone Mountain.
Except for the uncertain attitude of the Migratory Bird Council of the Supreme Jungle, there is actually a vague sense of unity in the South today.
Since the owner of Thousand Leaves Forest is Marvin's good friend, there is no need to worry about the wood elves.
So from the perspective of war, Marvin is really not afraid.
In the war between the North and the South, the South was much stronger.
But he didn't want to start a war.
He didn't want so many people to die because of him.
The only person Eve wanted to kill was herself.
As the dust settles on the slate of fate, more and more flies will target the White River Valley because of Marvin.
This place that Marvin swore to protect with his life is now in huge trouble because of him.
He had already thought of a solution.
That is leaving.
Laura was smart, she had guessed this, but she didn't point it out. She just asked tentatively, and at the same time she was a little worried about Marvin's future, just like worrying about an old friend's hike.
But she knew that she could not stop Marvin, or rather, the only person who could stop Marvin was still half asleep in the Tower of Babel.
"So, when are we leaving?" Laura blinked. "Don't deny my guess, otherwise I don't think you can spare the time to play cards with me and handle government affairs with Sister Anna... Besides, it has become a normal phenomenon for the lord of the White River Valley to be away from home."
Ma Wen was embarrassed.
It seems like I don't manage my own territory very well.
However, in response to Laura's question, he answered seriously:
"After the seven days of absolute asylum, leave."
