Night Ranger Chapter 84: Grandfather’s Secret
…………
At the moment when I saw Great Fiend Skull, Marvin's ears suddenly heard the weird singing voice I heard in secret passage!
The scalp is numb.
Great Fiend's three eyes stared at Marvin, and the expression on his face seemed to smile.
Below is a dilapidated map and some secret words that Marvin cannot understand.
These secrets are from the ancient Ahnzed Language through some encryption method Conversion.
"Is it really related to Ahnzedian ..."
"skull of Great Fiend ... fiend ..."
Marvin is lost in thought.
As we all know, Ahnzedian is Origin of Sorcerer. It is said that they have a very close relationship with fiend. They use each other and make alliances occasionally, but they will betray each other without hesitation when necessary.
The relationship between Ahnzedian and fiend is unclear, but Marvin knows that the language of Hell is very similar to the ancient Ahnzed Language.
Some people also say that Ahnzedian is actually a descendant of fiend.
There are divergent opinions. The specific situation is not even known to Marvin.
He can only infer from the map that the location pointed by this so-called hidden treasure map is indeed under his castle.
The secret word Marvin is unclear.
So he asked Doceroya: "What does this secret phrase mean?"
Doceroya shook his head: "I don't know."
"How do you know that this is an hidden treasure picture, not a doodle?" Marvin sneered, totally distrusting the Doceroya's gossip.
"Really." Doceroya hurriedly swears, "I really don't know."
"This hidden treasure map was given to me by an old man. Because I saved his life, he said that it was in return for me. This is an hidden treasure map, I found a professional appraiser. Unfortunately, I found that no one can crack the contents of the secret. So I decided to find the place of the treasure first.
Old man?
Marvin frowned.
Doceroya does not seem to be lying.
He originally thought that catching Doceroya, everything behind it came out. Unexpectedly, things seemed to be getting more complicated.
"What is your relationship with Miller?"
Marvin asked coldly.
"Miller? That businessman?" Doceroya answered honestly, "I met him by accident. He said that White River Valley was his territory, and he wanted to regain his own. So I helped He gave it a hand, provided him with some news and 豺 wolfman's contact method. "
Marvin groaned silently.
Miller is a Double Snake Cult person. This guy obviously also knows about the stones in secret passage. But he didn't seem to talk to Doceroya.
And Doceroya, because of the hidden treasure picture donated by an old man. Eyeed on White River Valley.
The two seem to be a coincidence, but Marvin doesn't believe that their luck will be so bad.
Old man ... old man ...
Suddenly, Marvin grabbed Doceroya's shoulders: "What does that old man look like?"
Doceroya was taken aback by Marvin. Suddenly recalled: "cannot remember clearly, is just an ordinary old man."
"I met him while traveling in Sage Desert. He said he was going to die of thirst and asked me if I could give him some water."
"I was too lazy to manage such things, but at that time I was carrying a Noble girl around me. In order to act in front of her, I generously took the old man out of desert and gave him water to drink. "
"Later, he said he wanted to repay me. Send me a hidden treasure picture. I didn't care about it at first, and then I asked someone to appraise it. The Discovery hidden treasure picture paper has more than 300 years of history!"
Three hundred years!
Marvin takes a deep breath.
White River Valley was not there three hundred years ago!
At that time. Even River Beach City is a savage lands ruin, Three Rings Hightower has just begun to take shape. — — young Lehman Sorcerer alone established this power. After all, the life of Legendary Sorcerer is very long. At that time, there was this hidden treasure map?
At this time, Marvin suddenly remembered that his grandfather was also a High Step Sorcerer.
According to his father's memories, his grandfather was not Legendary. But also advance a step has the big devil Magician of Fourth Step, it is said that the level is as high as Level 16.
At that time he opened up a lot of savage lands land for Southern Sorcerer Alliance. These lands were included in the layout of Sorcerer Alliance, so they got rewards like Nine Moons Medal.
Theoretically, with his credit, he can obtain land equivalent to River Beach City.
But why did he choose a small place like White River Valley! ?
Marvin is full of questions.
"It looks like it's time to go back and look up something about grandfather."
He made a decision secretly.
Next, Marvin continued to interrogate Doceroya for a while, this guy is really very sad, Marvin asked what he said, it seems that he did not seem to conceal.
He repeatedly said that as long as Marvin left him a life, he can pay as much money as he wants.
However, Marvin did not let him go from the beginning.
Not Marvin is cruel.
It is Doceroya that has violated his bottom line!
Anyone who beats him territory will die!
Here is where he wants Guardianship all his life. This is his hometown.
But since Doceroya cooperates so much, Marvin saves a lot of interrogation effort, and Marvin also gives him a straightforward.
The cold light flashed and the head fell to the ground.
As for the hidden treasure picture, Marvin is naturally smiling.
"Two weeks after Mederly attacked Scarlet Monastery, within two weeks, I must rectify territory."
"The most important thing right now is to calm the people's hearts. As long as I come back, citizen generally don't have many problems."
"The point is, the food issue ..."
Marvin thought, while leaving the forest quickly, returned to castle.
...
Food issues!
This is a very serious problem.
If it's peacetime. White River Valley residents have surplus food in their homes, so naturally they will not appear. However, the invasion of 豺 wolfman caused White River Valley's vitality, and the granary was burned again. The winter food is definitely not enough.
In fact, the data given by Anna to Marvin is that at the current consumption rate, within a week, the grain of White River Valley will be consumed cleanly.
It is now every morning. Anna will leave the castle with the food in the granary under the protection of the police. Head to Yamashita Bazaar to distribute rations according to the registered population.
These rations are inadequate, and farmers are working hard to cultivate them. But the autumn harvest is still two months later.
White River Valley was originally relatively barren, with less wheat and okra grown than other areas with fertile land.
As for the grazing industry, a few bold people have begun to implement it, but their methods are not very effective. No benefit has yet been seen.
In short, although the return of Marvin has temporarily stabilized the hearts of the people, the current territory is simply in shambles!
Marvin has not played Landgraf before, but has played a lot of Landgraf games.
Fenan civilians generally remain at the level of medieval Europe. Although it is a high-magic world, the lives of civilians are still very ordinary.
Food, house, woman. Kids, simple entertainment.
This is most of my life.
And in White River Valley, because there is no slave. So at the bottom are farmers. Although they are free, they need to cultivate and pay taxes.
The treatment of craftsmen is much better. Many peasant families will find ways to pass their children to those craftsmen as trainee. If they can learn a craft, they may be able to get a place in a small town under the mountain. Whether it's a bricklayer. As a carpenter, they can live a better life than ordinary farmers.
In the upward direction, there are people around Landgraf. The police, Anna and others.
Because the grandfather of Marvin has no followers and no family members, the castle is actually very deserted.
The overall structure of the White River Valley is so simple.
Such an territory, under the impact of the Great Cataclysm's terrifying trend, I am afraid it will be wiped out at once.
No wonder Marvin's previous life, almost never heard of White River Valley.
But it's different now.
The arrival of Marvin will change all this.
He already has a series of plans in his mind!
First of all, it's still a matter of food. Food is now only available for purchase. Fortunately, after killing Black Jack, Marvin has gained a huge wealth, which is enough for territory to spend a year or two.
"Get me Lola."
In the study, Marvin told Anna.
Anna hesitated for a moment and said, "young master, she is a liar."
"I know." Marvin said calmly, "So I will go to Gemstone Bay in person."
Anna frowned and said, "You have just returned to territory ..."
"It's okay. I'll be back soon," Marvin said.
"Go here to Gemstone Bay, at least two weeks back and forth, right?" Anna said puzzled.
Marvin shook his head and said, "Up to five days."
"Trust me, five days later, I will return to territory with a convoy of food. Spread the news."
"It is a promise promised by Marvin."
After listening to Anna, although it still looks suspicious, it is still ready to follow suit.
Marvin has done too many wonders in recent days. She has unconditionally believed in Marvin.
"Wait!" At this moment, Marvin suddenly called Anna.
He thought about it, and finally said:
"Forget it, let Lola get ready for something far away, and wait for me at city gate this evening."
...
After Anna left, only Marvin was left in the study.
He hesitated, and opened the drawer. There was a dark compartment in it.
Hidden in the dark grid is a key.
No one knows that there is a hidden door in the study of this castle. This news was told to Marvin before the death of Marvin's father.
He said, let Marvin never open the door. Because that's not the world that the flat ordinary person can reach.
Behind that door is the secret of his grandfather.
"But now I am no longer flat ordinary person."
He picked up the key, pushed open a bookcase, inserted the key into the hole, and slowly rotated it.
"I really want to see what kind of secrets my grandfather is hiding ..."
The next moment, the door opened.
Just at first glance, Marvin was shocked!
"It's ..."
