Divinity!
Ma Wen would never have dreamed that the Endless Ocean would give him such a huge gift!
He already knew that no matter which clone of the Crimson Patriarch was killed, there would be a bit of divinity left behind. After all, he was the second son of the Twin Serpents Annihilator.
But with so many legends around, Ma Wen had no intention of coveting this bit of divinity.
Besides, even if he wanted this bit of divinity, he had no container to store it in. Otherwise, he would have kept the bit of divinity from the lich's broken finger for himself.
But now, he had a virtual divinity!
Virtual divinity referred to anything that could store divinity in place of divinity. It could be a magical object in the astral plane, or a product of alchemy.
The virtual divinity of the Endless Ocean seemed to be an adventure from another plane. It seemed that she and Constantine both had something similar.
This bit of divinity allowed Ma Wen's body to undergo an all-round transformation!
First, there were a few very domineering records:
[You have obtained virtual divinity and divinity (1)]
[Your HP + 100]
[Your Strength + 1, Agility + 1, Vitality + 1, Intelligence + 1, Perceptive Sense + 1, Charisma + 1]
[Your resistance in all aspects has increased …]
All attributes + 1!
This was the benefit of divinity.
Ma Wen's originally extremely weak body began to recover a lot of strength under the nourishment of divinity.
His Agility directly broke through 25 points. Even without Chaotic Master, he could still use [Flickering Light Shadow]!
Each of his stats had increased by one point. This was equivalent to an increase of 12 levels!
This battle was worth it!
…
Apart from the divinity, Ma Wen also obtained the title [Legendary Slayer].
Although the effects of this title were not suitable for battle, it was still very practical.
[Legendary Slayer]: When you face a legendary fighter, the other party will maintain a certain level of respect for you.
It was common knowledge that Legendary powerhouses would not pay too much attention to those below the Legendary level.
Hathaway valued Ma Wen because of his identity as a "Heavenly Awakener"; Constantine because he was also a Nightwalker; Endless Ocean was because he owed old Sean a favor when he was young. The old blacksmith had no desires, and so did his daughter Jane. As the old blacksmith's disciple, Ma Wen naturally became the object of her reciprocation.
Shadow Thief Owl had taught Ma Wen the art of origami because of fate.
The others, such as Lehmann and Inheim, rarely took the initiative to communicate with Ma Wen even though they admired Ma Wen's behavior.
This was the pride and vision of a Legendary powerhouse.
However, with this Legendary Slayer, Ma Wen could at least talk to Legendary powerhouses on certain occasions.
…
After killing the fish monster, Ma Wen also gained 8731 Slaughter EXP. Coupled with the EXP he gained from harvesting in the underground granary, his total Slaughter EXP suddenly reached 18439 points!
Level 3 Nightwalker required 18,000 EXP.
Ma Wen did not hesitate to allocate enough EXP to Nightwalker.
His Nightwalker level was instantly raised to Level 3.
36 Skill Points, 58 HP, and an additional Profession Ability.
This Profession Ability was also Ma Wen's favorite. It was called [Extraordinary Reflex].
[Extraordinary Reflex]: Your Nerve Reaction Speed + 1.
Nerve Reaction Speed. This was a hidden attribute that was very easy to overlook. The reason why Ma Wen's combat ability was higher than that of ordinary people was because of his faster Nerve Reaction Speed.
His combat instinct allowed him to make the right choice in the shortest time. This was the ability to react.
With Extraordinary Reflex, his advantage in this aspect would continue to expand!
He would become more sensitive, faster, and his mind and body would become more coordinated.
…
36 Skill Points. Marvin quickly allocated them to the team. 20 Skill Points were thrown to [Night Jump]. When he killed the Purple Robe King Cobra, this skill showed its value. When 50 Skill Points were accumulated, a hidden effect could be activated — [Second Jump].
[Second Jump]: You can perform a small jump in the air!
The hidden effect of [Second Jump] was very powerful, and it doubled the value of [Night Jump].
Ma Wen's combat flexibility would also be greatly increased.
Of the remaining 16 Skill Points, 6 were thrown to [Summon Crow], and 10 were used to choose a new skill.
[Ejection Blade (10)]: Create a number of shadow daggers that can be ejected in a certain space.
This was an AoE skill that could only be used at night. To a certain extent, it could make up for Ma Wen's lack of AoE attacks.
…
After a series of enhancements, Ma Wen's HP directly reached 456. His total level was as high as 10, and he was already at the edge of Grade 3.
One more level, and he would become a Grade 3 Profession.
Ma Wen's leveling speed was already very fast, but after tonight's battle, he still felt that it wasn't enough.
If it weren't for the unique characteristics of the Magical Warlock class, if it weren't for the power of scrolls and potions, he wouldn't be able to intervene in this level of battle!
It was a very uncomfortable feeling that he couldn't lead a battle that happened in his own territory.
"Power!"
"In the end, it's still power! I have to quickly carry out the next plan! "
In Constantine's arms, Ma Wen confirmed this thought.
At this moment, a wail came from the wilderness not far away.
That was the voice of Glenos before he died.
"It's over … finally."
Ma Wen closed his eyes.
He knew that everything was over for the time being.
However, history had been completely changed because of this.
As for what would happen next, Ma Wen had no idea.
He could only start with some things that he was still familiar with and frantically increase his strength.
The Shadow Prince was no longer active, which meant that fewer Legends would die in Fernand.
The destruction of the Universal Magic Pool might be unstoppable, but would the New Gods' plan be as successful as it was in his previous life?
Ma Wen wasn't sure.
The only thing he knew was that he had to work harder, harder, and harder!
This land needed his protection.
In the face of a real cataclysm, a Level-10 Profession couldn't protect anything.
"It's over," Endless Ocean said faintly.
Constantine nodded, picked up Ma Wen, and slowly walked into the castle.
…
Late at night, on the high tower outside River Beach City.
Madeline laid down on the soft sofa in a sorry and flustered state.
Her hair was messy, and her forehead was covered in sweat.
The battle just now had shaken her to the core!
River Beach City was so close to the White River Valley that she sensed it as soon as the battle began.
This time, no one killed her crows, so she had a panoramic view of the entire battle.
When Legendary Masters appeared one after another in the White River Valley, she almost suffocated.
And when Ma Wen rushed down the castle without a care for his own safety and transformed into an Anzurian Brown Bear to fight the Scarlet Patriarch, she was extremely surprised.
She suddenly realized that she had really underestimated this little man.
Although she hadn't figured out the ins and outs of the matter, in the entire South, perhaps only a few big shots of the Southern Wizard Alliance's Parliament had the ability to gather five top Legends together!
But this little country baron had done it.
This made her re-examine her view of Ma Wen.
"Perhaps, this man's value is greater than I thought."
"No, no, no … much greater …"
She couldn't help but lick her lips as she thought about it.
A trace of flame flashed in her eyes, and Ma Wen's slightly delicate face flashed in her mind.
A bold plan emerged in her mind.
"Anyway, we'll attack the Scarlet Monastery together in a few days. No matter what, it's an opportunity."
"Fresh and delicious …"
…
In the early morning, the White River Valley was extraordinarily quiet.
The earth-shattering battle last night seemed like a dream.
The White River melted again, and the depression on the riverbank was also smoothed out. This was not a difficult task for a Legendary Wizard who had recovered some of his strength.
Anna brought the villagers back to the village.
Most of the people had settled down. With the housekeeper's help, the entire White River Valley was still in order.
Everything that happened last night was like a drill.
Everyone farmed as usual, and everything was as usual.
On the balcony of the Castellan, Ma Wen stood there, quietly looking at the peaceful White River Valley.
In his hand, there was a letter sent from River Beach in the morning.
Madeline's urging.
It was said that everything was ready. All that was left was Ma Wen's Magic Holy Grail, and then they could attack the Scarlet Monastery.
Madeline gave Ma Wen three days.
Ma Wen thought for a moment and finally decided to go to the Scarlet Monastery.
Now that he had the Virtual Divine Spark, he might be able to obtain more benefits from the monastery!
As for Madeline, he couldn't see through her at all.
In the game, the Castellan of River Beach was very mysterious and rarely showed her true face. Ma Wen could not read her mind.
However, now that the Scarlet Patriarch was dead, the Twin Serpent Sect was leaderless. No one would dare to invade the White River Valley for a while.
As for the Azure Patriarch, Ma Wen remembered that she should still be asleep. At least, she would not wake up before the Cataclysm!
Moreover, although the four Legends, Shadow Thief Owl, Inheim, Constantine, and the Endless Ocean, had left after the battle last night.
However, Hathaway stayed.
Her reason was that she was tired of the air in the Three-Ring High Tower. Since she had successfully snatched the space-time remains of the Shadow Prince, she might as well take a break.
The place of the break was naturally the White River Valley.
Ma Wen was surprised by this, but more than that, he was happy. With such a Legendary Wizard overseeing the White River Valley was very safe.
Vigny was also learning from her, which would be very beneficial for his future Wizard path.
"Maybe I should find a time to let this kid act as the representative of the territory."
Ma Wen turned around and saw Anna standing beside the desk with thick documents on it. He thought so.
Vigny had outstanding leadership skills and was definitely more suitable to be the Lord than himself.
Ma Wen himself, in order to improve his strength, must be outside all year round. This was actually not very good for a territory.
However, considering Vigny's age, Ma Wen decided not to directly give him the position of Lord.
Instead, he needed to choose a suitable day to give him the title of Acting Lord.
This way, when Ma Wen was not around, he could exercise the rights of Lord on behalf of Ma Wen.
The White River Valley was a very small place, and it would take a long time to build it into a large territory.
Ma Wen could not wait.
He had to use various methods to improve the prosperity of the territory.
Currently, the White River Valley only had agriculture. This was far from enough.
In Ma Wen's plan, animal husbandry, commerce, and mining must all be developed.
The army also had to continue to recruit and build a new system to cope with the future cataclysm.
This was not easy, but Ma Wen also had a general plan.
The first step was to develop commerce. To develop commerce, he must develop transportation. The White River Valley's geographical location was actually very good. Fifty miles east was the coastline.
If a port could be built there, trade would undoubtedly become very easy.
But the key was that the east of the White River Valley was the remnants of the Screaming Mountains.
There were many monsters in that mountain range. The most troublesome one was the Ogre Tribe!
Unless they were eradicated, Ma Wen would not be able to get the port and the coastline he wanted.
"After the Scarlet Monastery is done, I must start developing the east."
Ma Wen sat in front of the desk and began to write stroke by stroke.
He wanted to finish the development plan of the territory within three days. As for implementation, he believed that Anna and Vigny would carry it out.
…
In the north, inside a glacier that had not melted for ten thousand years.
A girl in a green dress was sleeping.
Suddenly, she opened her eyes.
"Brother …"
She whispered in a low voice.
Her pupils contracted, and then figures appeared in her mind: Constantine, Endless Ocean, Inheim, Shadow Thief Owl …
There was also a skinny boy.
"Four Legends … and a piece of trash."
"I will avenge you."
Her eyes instantly narrowed into a line.
In an instant, the entire glacier began to crack!
