Dawn gradually arrived. Ma Wen ran tirelessly in the Thousand Leaf Forest.
He ran without fear. He had an extra pass in his hand. Even if he met the Elf Iron Guard, he would be let through easily.
After receiving the Night Lord's blessing, he felt full of strength.
After becoming a Nightwalker, his strength had undergone a qualitative change.
His attributes were strengthened again. At the same time, because his total level (Ranger 5, Nightwalker 1) had reached Level 6, he received a new attribute point. Ma Wen threw it into Agility without hesitation. That was the path he was taking. Before his Agility reached 25 points, he would not consider using his Free Attribute Points on other attributes.
The Thousand Leaf Forest was huge, but for Ma Wen, there were many places here that he was very familiar with.
The Book of Naru could be said to be the easiest artifact for Fernand to find. Although it was incomplete, it was not dangerous.
"I remember it was to the north of a small Elf village. There seems to be a waterfall there."
"The cold pool at the bottom of the waterfall is very cold. Only those with above 5 points of cold resistance can dive in."
"The Book of Naru was placed in that pool."
As Ma Wen headed in the direction of his destination, he recalled the hiding place of the Book of Naru that night.
The Thousand Leaf Forest was too vast. The Elf village was just a decoration here. Without enough information, it was impossible to find the Book of Naru.
No wonder no one had found it for so many years.
The sun gradually rose. Ma Wen did not feel uncomfortable.
However, the feeling of being like a fish in water at night gradually faded.
After all, the Nightwalker was stronger at night. During the day, the Night Raven Summon skill was sealed.
But Eternal Night could still be used. This skill could be used up to three times a day.
"Let's take a break. It's probably not far ahead."
Ma Wen stopped and sat under a tree. He took out some dry food and water from the Void Conch to replenish some energy.
Taking this opportunity, he took out the magic weapon.
His anger burned the prairie.
This machete was made by Sean himself, and it was infused with a lot of rare metals and precious materials. Its attributes also lived up to its name as a magical weapon.
There were actually two great spells attached to the curved blade!
Arcane Missile was a common instant-cast spell. The number of Arcane Missiles summoned to attack the enemy depended on the user's Intelligence.
With Ma Wen's intelligence, he could probably summon three to five Arcane Missiles, which was quite a threat.
This spell could be used three times a day.
The other spell, [Prairie Rage], was more powerful. It was a level 2 spell!
And it was a group attack spell!
It was several times stronger than the Fire God's Hand. Although he could only use it once a day, Ma Wen was already very satisfied.
What he was most grateful for was that this scimitar was custom-made for him by the old blacksmith!
Logically speaking, with Ma Wen's current attributes, he would not be able to equip such a magical weapon — he did not have enough strength!
The normal strength requirement of this weapon was: 15 points!
But Sean added a lot of [Cloudy Aluminum Rock] — an extremely rare and expensive ore — during the forging process, which forcibly reduced the weapon's strength requirement to 12 points, which was just the level that Ma Wen could use.
It could be seen that the old blacksmith had paid great attention to the details.
At this time, Ma Wen really realized that the weapon that really suited him should indeed be made by himself.
After all, he was the one who knew him best.
His previous plan was to never touch the profession of blacksmith again after leaving the Eternal Night Paradise.
But after realizing Sean's good intentions, he slowly changed his mind.
Perhaps the profession of blacksmith was not as boring and useless as he thought.
…
The only thing that troubled Ma Wen was that he practiced dual-wielding, and it was best to keep the weight and size of the scimitar in his left and right hands the same.
Although a normal person's right hand was always stronger than his left hand, if the quality of the two weapons was too different, it would also cause uncoordinated attacks.
Of course, the occasional change of rhythm would certainly have an unexpected effect. The key was how to use it.
After some thought, he decided to hang Raging Flames and the Emerald Dagger on his waist, one on the left and one on the right.
For the time being, he would use the fangs for the time being. Anyway, with his skills, it was not difficult for him to change his scimitar in battle.
After familiarizing himself with the weapon, Ma Wen set out again. Soon, he found the familiar elven village.
…
The village stood in the west of the Thousand Leaves Forest.
The population was about 200, and all of them were pure-blooded wood elves.
The village had its own guards, but they were generally not strong — the most powerful elves had been forcibly conscripted into the Elven Iron Guard.
Although this forced conscription did indeed protect the Thousand Leaves Forest, it also caused a wave of dissatisfaction among the wood elves.
If it weren't for the Legendary-realm Great Elven King's personal strength and charisma, the Thousand Leaves Forest would have been in chaos.
When Ma Wen entered the village, he found that there were only a dozen young adults in the village, and most of them were old people and children.
This was a very ordinary elven village.
They lived in peace, isolated from the rest of the world. There was a large field of corn and bananas outside the village, enough for the wood elves to eat for a long time.
Perhaps because they had rarely seen humans, many elven children surrounded Ma Wen, not at all afraid of strangers. They asked Ma Wen about some things in the common language that they were not familiar with.
Ma Wen liked these children very much. He took out some snacks and gave them to the children. These snacks were Ma Wen's dry rations. They came from the human world and could not be bought in the Thousand Leaves Forest.
Now that the children had gotten what they wanted, they began to pester Marvin even more, causing him to be unable to extricate himself for a while.
Young Wood Elves were very lively and full of curiosity towards the world. This curiosity would gradually fade after adulthood, and most wood elves would eventually become aloof from worldly affairs.
The youths, on the other hand, were much more cautious. However, after Ma Wen showed them his pass, they let down their guard.
Not many people could get a pass. They were all allies of the wood elves and would not harm the wood elves.
Soon, Ma Wen was treated warmly in the village — especially after Ma Wen magically picked out some trinkets from River Beach City from the Void Conch. These things were not worth much, but to the elves, especially the children, who were isolated from the rest of the world, it was a strange novelty.
Ma Wen stayed in the village for a while and asked the village elder about the waterfall in the north.
As expected, the elder immediately pointed out the exact direction of the waterfall to Ma Wen.
He also warned Ma Wen, "Young man, although the waterfall is beautiful, the water at the bottom is very cold. Do not walk into the water."
Ma Wen nodded and thanked the elder. With great difficulty, he escaped the pursuit of the elven children and headed north alone.
After about half an hour, he found the waterfall.
The sound of splashing water led him forward. Soon, the cold pond that emitted wisps of cold air appeared in front of him.
Around the water, there was not a single blade of grass. Perhaps it was because it was too cold.
Ma Wen came to the edge of the water alone. As expected, a wave of cold air pressed against him.
"Luckily, I'm prepared."
He looked around to make sure no one was around. He quietly took out a bottle of blue potion and gulped it down!
[Rapid Cold Resistance Potion]!
It could temporarily increase the cold resistance by 8 points. The effect was very abnormal, but the duration was very short, only three minutes!
This was what Ma Wen had asked for from Hathaway. She probably thought that the identity of a Heaven Awakened was worth the price, so she simply gave one bottle to Ma Wen in advance.
In fact, this potion was very expensive. Although it was not as good as Dragon Power, it could still be sold for a very high price on the market.
After Ma Wen finished drinking it, he did not dare to delay and quickly jumped into the water!
His swimming skills were not bad. Although the water was deep, he knew the approximate position. Very soon, after two attempts, he finally caught the box that was stuck in the mud on the third try!
Hualala!
Marvin crawled out of the cold pond, covered in splashes of water. He was shivering with the wooden box in his hand.
Even if the cold resistance was increased, it did not mean that he was not afraid of the cold. It was just that he would not freeze to death!
Coincidentally, there was a small cave nearby. Ma Wen went in, took off his clothes, and started a bonfire.
After warming his body, he opened the box. The lock on the box had not been repaired for a long time. It broke easily with a tug.
There was a sheepskin parchment and a human skin mask lying quietly in it.
