Though it was only a back view, the first thing that came to Ma Wen's mind was Hathaway.
He couldn't help but walk up to her.
The girl had just turned her head and was sizing him up curiously.
Ma Wen almost suffocated at that instant.
The girl looked exactly like Hathaway.
She looked exactly like she did when she was 16 years old. She was sizing him up with a puzzled look in her big eyes.
"Why are you …" Ma Wen felt his mouth was dry.
Wasn't Hathaway taken away by the Demonic Phoenix? Why is she here?
To his surprise, the girl put on a vigilant look, "Who are you?"
"I don't know you."
Ma Wen was taken aback a bit. Did he mistake her for someone else?
That's impossible. The girl's appearance and the familiar aura are the same!
Ma Wen was baffled.
However, the girl suddenly turned around and walked away. She looked at Ma Wen with vigilance.
It was as if she had run into a bad pick-up artist.
Ma Wen was quite disappointed. He couldn't help but ask, "What is your name?"
The girl stopped and said with a frown, "… Hathaway."
After that, she didn't stay any longer. She left the deck and returned to the cabin.
Ma Wen was left alone in a daze.
…
The appearance of Hathaway was totally beyond Ma Wen's expectation.
He couldn't believe that she didn't recognize him.
"Did the Demonic Phoenix do something to her?"
"Should I sneak over and have a look?"
In the cabin, Ma Wen was hesitating. He had memorized the location of the girl's cabin. He could sneak over and have a look if he wanted to.
However, he didn't do so in the end.
Because he felt something was not right.
The girl's eyes didn't seem to be fake, and she didn't look serious. Yet, Ma Wen sensed danger.
He didn't have extraordinary perception. He couldn't tell what had happened to Hathaway with just a few glances.
Where was her magic power? Why did it disappear?
Ma Wen would never believe that there was a person with the same name who looked exactly the same as him.
Something must have gone wrong.
"No … I still have to go and take a look."
Ma Wen made up his mind. Who knew that at this moment, he would suddenly feel his heart palpitate!
This feeling was only experienced by Hathaway when she sealed herself in the Black Coral Island.
A scene suddenly flashed across Ma Wen's mind.
Within the ice cold crystal, thunder rumbled. The black-robed woman sneered as a drop of blood seeped out of the ice crystal …
In that instant, Ma Wen felt a chill run down his spine!
Dark Phoenix!
It was that woman again …
He didn't expect that before he could find her, she would be the first to act against him.
These fragmented pieces of information were enough for Ma Wen to roughly guess what had happened.
A drop of Hathaway's blood and the Mystic Phoenix's Divine Origin were enough to create a "Hathaway" that looked like a real Hathaway.
The god hiding in the human world finally couldn't help but attack Ma Wen.
"She must have seen that I was the one who launched the Doomsday Bomb …
"There is a layer of mist between the God Nation and the Universe Magic Pond. The gods might not be able to see me, but Glenos and the Dark Phoenix must have seen me.
"Did the power of the Doomsday Bomb astonish her? Or did I make her feel uneasy? "
Ma Wen calmed himself down and analyzed the situation carefully.
Luckily, Hathaway, who had sealed herself in the ice crystal, didn't fall into a deep sleep. She sent an important message to Ma Wen.
It meant that she was in a good condition. She had fallen into a deep sleep just to deceive the Dark Phoenix.
Ma Wen calmed down a bit.
Then, his eyes turned sharp. "She wants to use Hathaway to kill me?"
Undoubtedly, the Dark Phoenix's intention was clear.
The fake Hathaway was playing hard to get.
If he really couldn't resist sneaking over, what awaited him in the cabin would probably be an inescapable trap!
Now that he had seen through the Dark Phoenix's trick, Ma Wen wasn't in a hurry.
Hathaway had tried so hard to cover it up. He couldn't make it too obvious. He had to find a way to stall for time.
Marvin muttered to himself for a moment, then decided to stay in the cabin and not move.
For the next few days, he hid in the cabin, not moving at all.
He sensed that someone was loitering in front of his door, but the person left eventually.
Ma Wen sneered inwardly. "You can't hide it after all?"
…
On the Sunrise Island.
This was a strange large island. It was located in the west of the Fernand Continent, but it was named the Sunrise Island.
This island had a long history, and so did the power that controlled it.
The Dark Knight Hidden Order!
This was a secret organization founded by the Dark Knight Cangor. There were many legendary battle pet warriors in the organization. They controlled every port on the Sunrise Island, and they had a strong and loyal fleet.
Cangor seldom showed up in public. Most of the time, the Sunrise Island was supervised by a governor appointed by him.
The island was prosperous and noisy, but the rules were strict. Anyone who dared to use violence on the Sunrise Island would be hunted down by the subordinate organizations of the Dark Knight Hidden Order.
No one had the courage to go against a secret organization that had more than two legendary battle pet warriors.
Besides, it was said that the leader of the Dark Knight Hidden Order, Cangor, had a page of a godly book.
That page of the godly book contained endless power.
It was a part of a Divine Artifact. It was because of this incomplete Divine Artifact that Cangor was able to rule the entire Sunrise Island and the surrounding waters.
Ma Wen was the only one who knew that the page of the godly book was actually the second page of the Book of Naru!
The name of the second page was "Prosperity".
This page of the Book of Naru had a special ability. It could make a city prosper and last for a long time.
Because of this, the Dark Knight Cangor had been secretly searching for the Book of Naru. It was just that it had not worked for many years.
If not for the fact that the Sunrise Island was the only way to the Dead Zone, Ma Wen would not have passed by this place.
The two pages of the Book of Naru could sense each other. If Cangor sensed it, it would be quite troublesome.
Therefore, when the boat docked, Ma Wen was the first to get off the boat and blended into the crowd.
After a long time, the fake Hathaway got off the boat with a confused look on her face.
She did not understand what had gone wrong. Ma Wen had clearly seen her. Why did he not look for her?
Could it be that there was a flaw in her disguise?
No matter what, she had to carry out her master's order. That Ma Wen must die!
A murderous look flashed in her eyes. Her gaze pierced through the crowd and locked onto Ma Wen, who was in a good disguise. She quickly followed him.
…
Ma Wen arrived at the Sunrise Island. He didn't stay there for long.
He came to the beach and found a fisherman nearby. He asked the fisherman to take him to a small island on the other side of the island.
The island had a strange shape. There was a volcano on the island in the shape of a raised claw. It was easy to recognize.
The island was deserted all year round and had no special products. However, since Ma Wen was so generous, the fisherman was willing to give him a ride. The island was not far away anyway.
He knew the fake Hathaway created by the Demonic Phoenix must be following him, but he didn't care.
Just like that, the two of them arrived at the small island one after the other.
For Ma Wen, this nameless island was his way to the Dead Zone.
There was a cave on the edge of the island that led to the Undersea Tunnel.
He had no idea when the Undersea Tunnel had been dug. It seemed to have something to do with a branch of the Sea Tribe that had disappeared in the Vast Sea. If he could activate the door of the tunnel, he would be able to get to the Dead Zone much faster than taking a boat.
However, before he went to the Dead Zone, he decided to get rid of that big trouble.
…
On the beach in the evening, Ma Wen slowed down on purpose.
Under the setting sun, the shadow of the Coconut Tree looked a bit distorted.
"What a lousy Assassin …"
Ma Wen sneered inwardly.
Apparently, the creature created by the Demonic Phoenix hadn't fully integrated into this world because it had only been born recently.
Even though the creature had the ability of an Assassin at the peak of the fourth rank, Ma Wen could still detect it easily.
He was not nervous. He controlled his speed and walked forward at a steady pace.
It was a battle of patience.
At last, the sun had set completely. A clear voice came from behind him, "Ma Wen!"
A smile appeared on Ma Wen's face.
He turned around slowly and looked at the creature in surprise, "I thought you didn't recognize me?"
The fake Hathaway forced a smile and said, "I think I forgot many important things."
"But on your body, I sense some familiar traces."
"Do you know me? Can you help me remember something? "
Still pretending to have lost her memory?
Ma Wen sneered inwardly. However, he pretended to be overjoyed.
He walked over quickly and said, "Of course, of course I can help you."
As the two approached each other, the fake Hathaway put on a bashful smile and said, "How are you going to help …"
Who knew that at this moment, Marvin would suddenly launch an attack!
Shadow Step!
His speed was unparalleled, and his timing was perfect. The fake had no time to react.
Marvin circled to her back and knocked her out with a vicious karate chop!
It would be inappropriate to kill her directly since the Demonic Phoenix would find out.
However, Ma Wen had his own methods.
He carried the unconscious enemy into a cave, and solemnly took out the sixth page of the Book of Naaru [Rebirth]!
Instantly, the fake Hathaway's body went limp!
Ma Wen could sense that the Book of Naru was very excited. Without any instruction from Ma Wen, the Book of Naru had started to devour the Divine Origin of the Demonic Phoenix!
"I hope Cangor won't sense it."
Ma Wen threw a worried glance at the Sunrise Island.
…
In a grand hall on the Black Coral Islands, the Demonic Phoenix suddenly saw a scene.
The fake Hathaway she had created was chasing after Ma Wen. However, Ma Wen was so cunning that he managed to get away again.
However, the Ma Wen in the scene was seriously injured and at the end of his rope.
"I should be fine now."
The Demonic Phoenix put on a satisfied smile and turned her attention elsewhere. She had many important things to do.
