Ma Wen's movements were so fast that everyone was shocked when they realized what was going on.
Originally, the soldiers and nobles of River Beach City thought that Ma Wen was Madeline's gigolo or something.
When Ma Wen got into Madeline's carriage, they were still very disdainful.
The appearance of the Magic Holy Grail made some people realize that this was the reason why the lord of the city valued this nobleman from the countryside.
River Beach City was also very well-informed. News about Ma Wen's performance in the Holy Grail battle had gradually spread throughout the East Coast.
However, due to the fact that in previous Holy Grail battles, the Wizards were the main characters, so the rumors about Ma Wen were interpreted by most people as someone deliberately flattering him.
They would rather believe that it was the outstanding performance of Ma Wen's younger brother, Vigny, that allowed this pair of brothers to obtain the supreme honor of the Magic Holy Grail.
Therefore, even though they had a certain understanding of Ma Wen's appearance in the team and how he was valued by Madeline, most people still did not think much of this lord from the countryside. After all, although Ma Wen was equipped with two blades, he looked too thin and weak.
A year of smithing had given him some muscles, but compared to those strong warriors or knights, he was still too thin and small.
Coupled with his slightly delicate face, it was inevitable that some people with dirty thoughts would have wild and fanciful thoughts.
It was only at this moment that everyone had a new understanding of Ma Wen's strength!
25 points of super long agility and the characteristics of Flickering Light and Passing Shadow were not things that everyone could have!
…
Among the Guardian Knights, Guderian chopped off the head of a Corpse Seeker with his sword. He looked back and saw Ma Wen's suffocating speed!
"This guy …"
"It really is him!"
Guderian already had an impression of Ma Wen when they fought together in the basement against the Messenger of Plague. A mask could not hide from the senses of a Guardian Knight.
When he saw Marvin appear at Madeline's side, he was also a little surprised.
However, he was surprised that Ma Wen's strength had improved so quickly.
If he remembered correctly, when he faced the Plague Messenger that night, Ma Wen only had the strength of a Grade 1.
"He's already at level 10!"
"And it looks like it could break through to the Third Stage at any time. How is this possible!? "
"How can there be such a genius in this world?"
Guderian was almost dumbfounded. The Corpse Hunter found a gap and attacked.
Fortunately, one of his teammates blocked the attack for him. He shouted, "Boss, what are you doing?"
Guderian came back to himself in a hurry. He stopped looking at Ma Wen and gritted his teeth to deal with the wretched body hunters.
He was also a Guardian Knight favored by the Silver God!
He had been lingering at the peak of the second level for a long time.
He believed that after this experience in the Scarlet Monastery, he would definitely be able to advance to level three with the Silver God's blessing!
Holding his breath, Guderian attacked even more fiercely!
For a moment, a gap was created in the Corpse Seekers' camp!
…
On the other side, Ma Wen's figure stood steadily on the coffin.
Boom!
With a dull thud, the stone coffin fell to the ground, and a large amount of dust rose into the air. Marvin's expression did not change as he jumped back and landed without a sound.
At the same time, the shadow clone took over his position, still crouching on top of the coffin.
This action could not be any more skillful.
The people who had been watching the battle began to turn their attention to Ma Wen.
The battle between the Corpse Seekers and the soldiers was nothing to watch.
Although these fellows were not afraid of death, the Corpse Seekers were destined to be wiped out under the suppression of numbers and levels.
What made them curious was what this seemingly brave Baron Ma Wen wanted to do.
Inside this huge stone coffin was obviously an elite character. Could it be that he wanted to single-handedly destroy him?
"Reckless or brave? I'd like to see if this Baron Ma Wen is as the legend says, the most outstanding young ranger in the south. "
Among the group of people dressed mysteriously, a man wearing a cloak and black clothes said in a low voice.
These people were special helpers hired by Madeline. They would only act when Madeline asked them to.
Compared to ordinary mercenaries, they seemed to be more mysterious.
"No need to say more. I think he's dead for sure. " A purple-masked man beside him said disdainfully, "A grade two ranger challenging a grade three monster. Isn't the result obvious?"
"Let's make a bet." The cloaked man laughed in a low voice. "If he kills that monster, give me your latest little blood slave."
"Hmph, I knew you were up to no good." The purple-masked man sneered. "What will you trade for it?"
"Ancestral fangs," the cloaked man said concisely.
"Deal," the masked man said.
He was full of confidence. He had done some research on this stone coffin.
What was inside was not an ordinary Corpse Seeker. This was a Corpse King!
The opponent's vitality was extremely strong. To kill it, one had to have great endurance.
The masked man naturally wasn't an idiot. He had already seen through Ma Wen's style: a dual-blade ranger who fought in close combat.
The Corpse King didn't have any vital points. Even if Ma Wen chopped off the Corpse King's head, it would still be alive and kicking.
Killing a Corpse King alone?
This was definitely not something a grade two ranger could do.
"Ancestral fangs are mine." The masked man was confident in his victory.
Unfortunately, what he didn't know was that compared to ordinary dual-blade rangers, Ma Wen's greatest advantage was experience!
…
Not many people expected Ma Wen to have much combat experience as a fourteen-year-old ranger.
However, the Scarlet Monastery's Corpse King was an old acquaintance to Ma Wen.
He had run many dungeons with the team. Although they were always stuck in the fourth hall, the first few halls were all easily cleared.
Among them, Ma Wen had personally taken care of the Corpse King.
Ma Wen knew this Corpse King like the back of his hand!
"Should I step with my left foot or right foot first?"
"The left foot is the poisonous mist, and the right foot is the Entanglement Bandage …"
Ma Wen crouched behind the coffin and thought in boredom.
Through the shadow clone, he could share his vision and clearly see the Corpse King's movements in the coffin.
Puff puff puff …
The sound of heavy dust falling could be heard.
Ma Wen focused — —
It was the left foot! That was the poisonous mist!
Sure enough, as soon as the Corpse King took a step, a large amount of poisonous mist appeared at the edge of its tall figure!
This poisonous mist wouldn't spread and would only surround the Corpse King's body for about half a meter.
Even so, this was a very troublesome ability!
This was because this poisonous mist was very terrifying. Once touched, if one didn't get timely divine healing, they would die immediately!
But Ma Wen had a trick!
"Hiding behind the sarcophagus is automatically immune to the poisonous mist!" Ma Wen's main body hid behind the sarcophagus and began to control the shadow clone.
Thus, under everyone's surprised gazes, the shadow clone suddenly jumped up from the sarcophagus!
He actually directly pounced on the Corpse King!
… …
"Does this guy want to die?"
Someone exclaimed.
Just now, Ma Wen's action of switching to the shadow clone was too ingenious. Many people didn't see it clearly and thought that the man lying on the coffin was Ma Wen's main body.
Only a few people clearly saw that Ma Wen had secretly switched to a clone.
"It's a clone." The masked man frowned.
Obviously, this Ma Wen's action was beyond his expectations.
What was this guy trying to do?
Even if it was a clone, there was no need to throw itself on the Corpse King to die, right? There was no need to waste this clone at all?
"Smart."
The cloaked man beside him sighed in admiration.
"Smart?" The masked man was stunned for a moment. In the next second, Ma Wen's shadow clone immediately gave him the answer!
… …
In the hands of the shadow clone were two incomparably sharp knives.
This kind of knife was far from enough to kill people, but its advantage was that it was sharp enough. It was the most convenient to use it to cut things like ropes!
In the instant that the shadow clone pounced on the Corpse King, his knife was already out!
Crack!
The weakest part of the shroud wrapped around the Corpse King was picked out and a crack appeared.
With the poisonous mist surrounding its body, the shadow clone's HP rapidly dropped.
Crouching behind the coffin, Ma Wen smiled slightly.
Run!
Under everyone's surprised gazes, the shadow clone suddenly grabbed the broken part of the shroud and ran!
Although the shadow clone only had half of Ma Wen's attributes, its speed was still very fast.
In the blink of an eye, it rushed out more than ten meters!
The Corpse King was caught off guard and its entire body suddenly lost some of its balance. It was pulled half a circle before it used its powerful strength to stop the momentum.
And at this moment, under the effects of the poisonous mist, the shadow clone also died!
But all of this created an opportunity.
Behind the Zombie King, there was a small exposed area, probably near the neck.
This area was exposed to a piece of rotten flesh, without the protection of the shroud.
In Ma Wen's eyes, this was the biggest flaw.
His body suddenly pulled up from the ground and directly jumped onto the coffin.
In the next second, a lead syringe appeared in his hand!
This kind of syringe was about five centimeters in diameter. It was considered a product of alchemy and was also sold by various large guilds. The syringe was filled with extremely thin needle tips. It was different from the syringe used on Earth to save people and cure diseases. In Fernand's eyes, this thing was used to kill people!
Assassins filled it with poison and used it to stab into the enemy's body, allowing the poison to quickly spread to every corner of the enemy's body.
And Ma Wen used it to deal with the Corpse King.
The poisonous mist was erratic. Ma Wen seized the opportunity and suddenly attacked, throwing the syringe out!
At such a close distance, the syringe easily pierced into the Corpse King's exposed area.
Pa!
The needle was inserted. The Corpse King sensed that something was wrong and slowly turned around.
Unfortunately, Ma Wen mercilessly jumped over.
He somersaulted in the air and fiercely stepped on the back end of the syringe with his right foot.
In an instant, all the liquid in the copper syringe was injected into the Corpse King's body in one breath!
Ma Wen quickly dodged.
And in the next moment, the Corpse King's painful wails spread throughout the first hall!
"What did he put in the syringe!" The cloaked man could not help but murmur!
This was also what the others wanted to know.
What was in the syringe?
Everyone looked at the Corpse King in such pain in a daze.
Only Collins, the old fox, smiled and looked at Ma Wen who was dodging to the side, with a look of understanding.
