A letter from the old housekeeper said that Marvin's younger brother, Pooh, was under a curse that could not be undone. Even the archmages of the Magore Academy were powerless to do anything about it.
There was not much news in the letter, but fortunately, the old housekeeper who accompanied Pooh to study at the Magor College described Pooh's condition in detail.
"The technique taught by the Twin Snakes!"
After seeing those descriptions, Ma Wen had a rough idea in his heart.
The members of the Snake Cult are so rampant that they dare to stretch their hands into the area of the third ring tower
You know, Marvin originally thought that the Magor College where Pooh was located was one of the components of the three-ring tower. It stands to reason that it should be the safest place on the east coast. He did not expect that he had just recovered the White River Valley. There is a problem!
This was unexpected for Marvin.
Why did the people of the Twin Snakes attack Pooh
"Could it be that the Patriarch still saw me that day? This is impossible? I obviously picked out Miller's eyeballs first, and then killed him."
Marvin immediately denied his thoughts.
…
According to the old steward, Pooh is said to be preparing for a very important match.
In the three ring tower area, the colleges under the command of the three wizard towers compete with each other. Recently, it seems that the top executives of the three wizard towers have jointly held a practical competition.
They divided their disciples into several levels and fought separately.
Although Marvin's younger brother Pooh is very young and has only a short time in school, he has already shown outstanding wizard talent.
Just like his grandfather, with Pooh's talent, as long as he keeps studying hard, becoming a second-tier wizard is not a big problem. It is even possible to hit the threshold of a third-level wizard.
This kind of talent is not bad in the three-ring high tower area, especially the weakest Magor Academy.
And this kid is said to have special expertise in combat witchcraft, so he was recommended by his mentor to participate in the selection of this competition.
Pooh's performance was very good, he went all the way through and reached the final round.
But on the eve of the final round of trials, the nine-year-old suddenly fell ill.
Obviously, this was a deliberate frame-up.
The professors at Magore College tried their best to suspend the curse on Pooh.
But he himself, still in a coma, obviously couldn't continue the game.
Pooh is in a coma, and the person who benefits the most is naturally his opponent, a wizard named White. Magor's teachers had nothing to do with White, who was said to have a great background.
Although very suspicious, but without conclusive evidence, they can't do anything.
"Sure enough, the prophecy spell has completely failed."
Marvin looked at the letter carefully, not wanting to miss any details.
Among the professors of Magore College, there are at least third-level prophecy wizards. But there was nothing they could do.
Obviously, the prophecy spell has completely failed. Otherwise, with [Restore the Truth], the real culprit will have nowhere to hide.
The wizards have gradually begun to show their powerless side.
Next, the spells of other departments will also begin to be weakened, and the dominance of wizards will be slowly shaken.
After all, what they are about to face is a more powerful god.
…
"Master Marvin, let me go." Anna offered.
Marvin shook his head.
This time, things are not that simple. Pooh's coma is very similar to a method of the Snake Cult.
Ordinary people, even wizards, because they haven't fought against the Snake Cult for many years, can't figure out the specific principle.
After all, the curse is the most troublesome. If you want to remove the curse, you must unplug the source of the curse. There are no such masters in the Magor Academy.
"Unless she is willing to make a move."
"However, this is obviously impossible."
Marvin thought silently in his heart.
The owner of the Rainbow Tower affiliated with Magore Academy is Hathaway, who is close to a legendary wizard. It is said that he is the most promising wizard in the Southern Wizarding League. During the course of the game, Marvin clearly remembered that this sorceress had successfully promoted to legend before the cataclysm, and was very lucky to avoid being severely impacted at the moment when the cosmic magic pool burst.
She is also one of the few legendary wizards who are particularly active after the cataclysm. Sadly, she was killed by a god a year after the Cataclysm.
It seems to be the same as Anthony, it was done by the shadow prince. This guy has no face of a god. He is a legendary wizard who often uses his avatar to sneak up on humans. He basically never misses when he makes a move.
If Marvin's guess is correct, Hathaway must be retreating to hit the final threshold of the legendary wizard.
In this case, no matter how earth-shaking things happened in Magore Academy, she would not care about it.
What's more, a little wizard apprentice has been cursed inexplicably.
If the teachers at Magor College hadn't cherished Pooh's talent, I'm afraid he would have been given up long ago.
After all, medicines and spells to delay the onset of the curse are very expensive.
The letter written by the old housekeeper made it very clear. Pooh's status quo can only be maintained for ten days at most.
And tryouts were postponed, but the deadline was two weeks away.
There is not much time left for Marvin.
"I'll go myself."
Marvin made a decisive decision.
"But the territory..." Anna was a little embarrassed.
"Declaring to the outside world that I am recuperating from illness. There is nothing I can do about it." Marvin pondered and said, "Continue to carry out my orders. The specific affairs will trouble you during this period."
"I see." Anna nodded solemnly.
"The strength of the territory is still a bit weak, but I will solve this problem."
"Gru and his team of thorns are good talents, and they will not be willing to just be adventurers for the rest of their lives."
"Don't worry about money, try to recruit them first if you can."
Marvin ordered: "With the Thorn Squad, the safety factor of the White River Valley will increase a lot."
Anna continued to nod.
"I let Manao follow you. Although he is still a little weak now, he can handle some things very smoothly."
"In addition, if there is a little girl who brings her mother from River Beach City and takes her in, her name is Isabel."
"besides… "
Ma Wen Lin Zongzong quickly made a series of decisions.
It took a full hour before he gave Anna all the arrangements in detail.
And this diligent housekeeper has also been recording Marvin's orders.
In the end, Marvin made the final decision and said:
"Go and call Gru for me, and tell him that I found a book that contains the method of dealing with the plague on her daughter."
Anna hesitated: "Are you going to confess your identity to him?"
Marvin smiled: "Of course not."
"I will tell him that the double-knife mask informed me that I will meet him in River Beach City."
"Okay, let's go. After finishing these things, I still need to make some preparations before I can go on the road."
…
Things happened in such a hurry that even Marvin, who has always been good at handling various affairs quickly, felt a little tricky.
Taking the normal route, it should pass through River Beach City, go northwest, cross the official road in the middle of the dead hills and the hills of despair, and arrive at the moonlight forest.
Further north is the site of the Three Ring Tower.
That's about a week's worth of travel.
It's a bit of a waste of time.
"If you cross the Hills of Despair directly, you can reach the Moonlight Glade in two days. If you are lucky, you can catch the hot air balloon in the Moonlight Glade, and you can reach the Three Ring Tower the next day."
Marvin drew a straight line on the rough map, and the places in his memory emerged one by one.
The rich adventure experience played a great role at this moment.
There are many dangers in this line, but there are also many good benefits.
After all, the Hills of Despair is also close to Jewel Bay, and it is the most familiar place in Marvin's games.
"If you're lucky, you can get a good pair of scimitars before you reach the third ring tower."
Marvin stared at a certain point on the line, and some memories began to surface.
But before that, he had to go to River Beach City.
In any case, the plague on Gru's daughter must be driven out.
If Anna's recruitment fails, then the help this time is a relatively important bargaining chip.
He hoped that while he was away from the White River Valley, the local armed forces would be a little stronger.
After all, the recruitment of the defense team is still in progress, and it is still a bit too weak.
"That's about it."
"Rest for an hour, then go."
Marvin put pieces of field supplies into the void conch and began to rest.
…
In the middle of the night, a fast horse left the castle and went straight for the beach city.
