That's it!
A big force like the Tower of Ashes had a certain amount of weight in the entire South. It was absurd in itself to form an alliance with a small White River Valley.
If Ma Wen hadn't found the Book of Naru for Hathaway, and if Hathaway hadn't mistakenly believed that Ma Wen was a Heavenly Awakened, this kind of thing would never have happened.
In the eyes of outsiders, this matter was very strange.
The stranger something was, the more attention it attracted. This simple announcement of an alliance attracted a lot of attention.
At the same time, Ma Wen's deeds began to enter the eyes of the public.
Coupled with his previous arrogant performance in the Three Ring High Tower, it was hard not to let people's imagination run wild.
Most people thought that Ma Wen and Hathaway had a very special relationship. It was no wonder that the purple-robed wizard who admired Hathaway showed such hostility toward Ma Wen.
"Sure enough, a tall tree attracts the wind."
Ma Wen smiled bitterly.
Now he had some reputation, but this reputation might not necessarily be a good thing.
After so many days, what he had done in the Three Ring High Tower had probably spread to Riverbeach City, right?
Those who were observant should be able to speculate the relationship between the Dual-bladed Mask and Baron Ma Wen. If they were smart, they would probably think that these two people could not be the same person!
His identity as the Dual-bladed Mask might be suspected.
But Ma Wen was not worried. This kind of thing was not a big deal.
What's more, there were many people in the world who used scimitars. It was not difficult to explain it as a coincidence.
He would write a letter later and let the two Phantom Assassins wear masks, disguise themselves, and do a few things in Riverbeach City.
Anyway, as long as he refused to admit it, others would at most doubt him.
…
After becoming famous, Ma Wen could be considered a person of status in the south. This would be helpful for him to carry out some of his future plans.
His regional Mythos rose very quickly, and there was another one at the very end.
[Your deeds have been made known, Regional Legendary Point + 2]
[Region Legend Point (Young Nightwalker) (Thousand Leaves Forest)]: You have helped the elves take revenge and killed two Red Road Exiles. Your reputation among the Wood Elves has rapidly increased.
This was the reputation obtained by Ma Wen's third identity. When necessary, it would come in handy.
…
"About the fight for the Holy Grail in three days, how confident are you?"
Hathaway suddenly asked.
Ma Wen snapped back to reality from the data panel and said firmly, "One hundred percent."
"Arrogant." Hathaway said disdainfully, "Don't think that Awakened Ones are invincible. You don't even know who your opponent is and you dare make such a conclusion?"
"Do you know that the Thunder Tower and the Craftsman Tower have made sufficient preparations to deal with you?"
Ma Wen shook his head, but he still said confidently, "Everyone can make preparations."
"Obviously, I have made more preparations than them."
"The terrain of a snowy mountain is different from that of a forest." Hathaway frowned, "I'm still very curious. Where does your natural confidence come from? Wizards are the most powerful profession — "
"Just for now," Ma Wen interrupted.
Hathaway glared at him fiercely, "Alright, now!"
She had also seen part of the tragedy after the destruction, and the recent news from the Legendary Wizard Council was that this catastrophe seemed to be unstoppable. Even Lord Anthony had fallen.
After the cataclysm, wizards could indeed face a decline.
"But no matter what, you will face the strongest from the other two academies. Their spellcasting ability is much stronger than your brother's. Although I don't want to admit it, Magog College is indeed the worst of the three academies. Maybe it has something to do with me being too lazy to manage it."
Hathaway rubbed her temples and said, "And they also have their followers. As far as I know, the people from the Thunder Tower changed their followers at the last minute. "
Ma Wen laughed, "Are they from Unicorn?"
"Probably. They are here for you. They only have one goal, and that is revenge! "Hathaway reminded," You killed Wight, so Unicorn will not let you go. Although the rules of the competition state that the followers cannot be more than two levels higher than the wizard, a grade two powerhouse is still very troublesome. "
"As for the other academy, the Tower of Craftsmen's Magus, they also changed their follower to a powerful Shield Bearer. They will definitely change to a full set of excellent equipment, and your scimitar will be greatly restrained — it might not even be able to be used at all. "
Ma Wen nodded.
These things were all within Ma Wen's expectations.
His outstanding performance in the forest terrain would definitely attract the attention of the enemies. Wizards who could make it to the Holy Grail Battle were not fools.
"Thank you for your information. I will remember it. "
Ma Wen simply thanked her.
He had gained so much in the Forest of Thousand Leaves this time, and it was time to show his strength!
This Holy Grail Battle was bound to attract a lot of attention. Occasionally showing his strength would also be good for the development of the White River Valley.
As for Unicorn … Ma Wen counted the days. It was almost time for the Immemorial Red Dragon to be awakened by the volcano.
It seemed to be during the Holy Grail Battle.
He only needed to deal with the death warriors or killers they sent.
He could already kill a Quasi-Legend, why should he be afraid of a mere Grade 2 killer? Although the former was beaten up by Ibu and Ma Wen decisively dealt the last blow, it still greatly boosted Ma Wen's confidence.
After a simple chat with Hathaway, the latter still hoped to communicate more about the Awakened with Ma Wen. Unfortunately, Ma Wen was not a Awakened at all, so he could only fool around and leave.
After this meeting, Hathaway would truly enter a state of seclusion and would not come out until she became a Legendary.
Ma Wen remembered that in his previous life, Hathaway became a Legendary about a week before the Great Cataclysm.
Now that he had the Book of Naru, the progress would probably be much faster.
It was naturally an excellent thing to have another Legendary Wizard as an ally.
…
Returning to Vigny's dormitory, Vigny was not there. According to the old butler, she was discussing tactics with her mentor, Henzel.
"Master Ma Wen, here is a letter from the White River Valley."
"It's from Anna. It arrived two days ago. It says that you opened it personally. Neither I nor Young Master Vigny read it. "
The old butler took out a letter.
Ma Wen nodded, opened the envelope, and read it without any hesitation.
The old butler was the same as Anna. They were both dedicated people for the White River Valley. He was truly one of them. Although he was old and could not do things as he wished, his loyalty was unquestionable.
Anna wrote a lot of content in the letter. She described to Ma Wen some of the things that happened in the White River Valley during this period:
Gru fulfilled his promise and led the Thorns team to join the White River Valley. The addition of this adventurer team greatly increased the patrol power of the White River Valley.
Most of the residents of the territory had been relocated.
Autumn was coming soon, and the food problem was very serious. Because of the several fires set by the Gnolls, the food in the granary could only last for a month at most.
There was still a lack of craftsmen and craftsmen in the castle. After all, the White River Valley was a rural place, and there was nothing special in attracting these craftsmen. Although Ma Wen put up a notice to recruit talents at a high price, only a few people came.
Most craftsmen had families to take care of, and few people were willing to move. Most of the people who applied were single.
Recently, there was a rumor in the vicinity of River Beach City and the White River Valley: [The Lord of the White River Valley, Ma Wen, is the Double Blade Mask.] Although Anna had denied this and banned the spread of the rumor, there were still many people secretly spreading it. Anna could not do anything about this. After all, she was just a housekeeper, not the Lord himself.
What was worth rejoicing over was that after similar news appeared, the people of White River Valley did not become unstable. The residents of the White River Valley all knew that it was the Double Blade Mask who personally led people to recover the territory. They probably had such a thought in their hearts: If the Lord was really the Double Blade Mask, that would be great. Only such a powerful Sir Lord could guard this land.
…
At the end of the letter, Anna also mentioned a few people:
The female liar named Lola returned to the White River Valley again. This time, she claimed that she had reached an agreement with a Chamber of Commerce in Gem Bay. She could buy the food of the Chamber of Commerce at a price 30% lower than the market price, provided that Ma Wen agreed to some conditions of the Chamber of Commerce.
Because this matter had to be decided by Ma Wen himself, Anna let Lola stay for the time being and let things take their time.
As for the little girl named Isabelle that Ma Wen mentioned, she did not appear for a long time.
Finally, there was a strange man, who claimed to be "the greatest alchemist in history", who proposed to Anna that he wanted to settle in the White River Valley. Anna let him live outside the castle for the time being.
…
There were too many affairs in the territory. After all, Anna could only make a few decisions. When Ma Wen was away for a while, these problems would arise.
He hesitated for a moment and began to write a reply to Anna. Everything had to be arranged.
As for Isabelle, he felt a little uneasy. He was impressed by the courage of this little girl. Her eyes were crimson, and she seemed to be of the blood of a mysterious race.
"Forget it. When I return to River Beach City, I'll see."
Ma Wen picked up the pen and quickly replied to Anna.
After writing for a full half an hour, he finished arranging everything in detail.
The Magog College had a special carrier pigeon. Ma Wen sealed the letter with wax seal and handed it to the old butler to send.
Not long after, Vigny returned.
"Brother. My mentor gave me some things. You may need them. "When Vigny saw Ma Wen, he immediately took out a few magic scrolls.
These were all given to him by Henzel. But he was going to give them to Ma Wen.
Ma Wen was not in a hurry. Instead, he looked at Vigny.
"What was it that you wanted to tell me before?"
Vigny froze for a moment and then began to hesitate.
His face was slightly red, as if he was struggling with whether or not to tell Marvin about this.
Ma Wen waited quietly. (This is a great event. Cool phones are waiting for you! Follow ~ Click on the Chinese official account (WeChat add friends – add the official account – type qdread) and participate immediately! Everyone has a prize. Follow the qdread official account now!)
