Night Ranger

For Thaddeus, everything that happened today was beyond his expectations.

The black knight Cangger is the puppet he supported all the way, and he can be regarded as the spokesperson of the extremely evil hell in Feinan.

Thaddeus has a firm grip on the soul of the black knight, so that the black knight can come forward and do things that he can't do.

Such as debt collection.

Thaddeus will never forget the scene when he came to ask for a reward, but was humiliated by the bloody emperor, and was almost beaten to death. That was the moment when the entire underground empire celebrated its achievements, and countless pairs of eyes watched all this. He originally thought that the bloody emperor would abide by the devil's contract, but the cruel king made a shocking move.

He totally pissed off the hell out of him.

But over the years, Thaddeus was most confused about the emperor's method of avoiding the contract.

Today he ordered the black knight to go to the emperor's tomb, and he also had this thought in mind at the same time.

But the result backfired.

At the moment when the black knight's body was shattered, Thaddeus, the controller of his soul, sensed it.

He immediately narrowed his eyes.

It didn't surprise him that the Black Knight died inside, proving that the hideous liar had another hand.

It's a big deal, just change a few puppets and go to the tomb to try.

However, when Marvin led the three of them out of the tomb safely, Thaddeus finally couldn't control his emotions!

"How can it be?"

"It turned out that this guy succeeded?"

"Changor has the Book of Naaru in his hand, and the contract backup I gave him. Even if he can't fight against the Heroic Spirit, he can at least retreat... Could it be..."

Marvin killed the Black Knight?

The news was a bit hard to swallow.

In Thaddeus' view, although Marvin is not bad, his strength may not be great. There are too many miscellaneous things on him, and the devil who has always regarded his status based on bloodlines despises people like Marvin whose abilities come from all directions.

He didn't believe that the Black Knight would lose to Marvin.

However, the reality is in front of us.

Without even looking at him, Marvin took out the petrified heart and slowly handed it to Black Hand.

The latter smiled and was just about to pick it up.

Who knows at this moment. Thaddeus seemed to react suddenly, and shouted, "Mr. Marvin!"

"please wait a while!"

Marvin showed a smile: "What's the matter, Your Excellency Thaddeus."

Thaddeus chuckled, temporarily leaving behind the shock and disbelief in his mind.

He's a very realistic guy.

He saw that Marvin got the petrified heart, so there was only one possibility. He perfectly handled the Heroic Spirit of the Bloody Emperor.

For Thaddeus, the bloody emperor is not only hatred, but also has a very crucial and hidden meaning: for the devil in the nine layers of purgatory, no matter how many excuses Thaddeus has, he is the first time This is a great humiliation for a devil who has been deceived by humans.

He is an ambitious man. The extremely evil lord was seriously injured in the competition for the slate of destiny in the third era, and his support until now is almost at the end of his strength.

Everyone in Hell is silently coveting the weakening figure on the throne.

As his second son, Thaddeus is naturally the same.

It's just that at present, his approval rate in the extremely evil place is not very high.

With Thaddeus' skills and strength, other problems can naturally be solved, but the matter of being deceived by the bloody emperor can never be erased lightly.

To inherit that throne and its power, he must wash away the humiliation on himself!

In other words, his contract with the bloody emperor is bound to be won!

He must get the soul of the liar, it is very important to him!

...

In this situation. Even though his relationship with Marvin was not particularly harmonious before, he suddenly changed his attitude.

He leaned forward with a smile on his face: "I am willing to pay a high price for the contract stone you got from the bloody emperor's corpse."

Marvin raised his eyebrows, pretending to reveal a hint of memory:

"Stone? What kind of stone? Could it be this one?"

"But this petrified heart was reserved by the Scorched Earth Purgatory. This is also an important bargaining chip for them to take me into Devil City."

I have to say that Ma Wen's acting skills are very realistic.

It's not like he had an idea, after all, with his understanding of the devil, he would naturally understand Thaddeus' desire for the stone contract.

But I'm sorry, Marvin can't give it to him.

The stone contract is the key to Marvin fulfilling the entrustment of the emperor's heroic spirit. Only by handing that stone into Die's hands can he be fully recognized by the Blade of Sodom.

At the same time, maybe he can learn the secrets of the underground empire back then.

So he had already prepared how to hide it from Thaddeus.

Thaddeus saw that Marvin's expression did not seem to be fake, so he could only frowned: "There are no stones?"

Marvin spread his hands flatly: "There are no stones."

Thaddeus sighed. Suddenly he said in a low voice: "If that's the case, forget it. Your performance surprised me. You must know that he is a heroic spirit. Not only did you survive, but you also got a lot of benefits from him. Don't rush to deny it. I feel that For the murder weapon. It's a pity that there are no stones, but I'm a fiend of good faith."

"If one day I said hypothetical. Suppose one day, you suddenly remembered that you got a certain stone in this adventure, please contact me."

"I'll pay you a price you can't even imagine, and a friendship from a hellish place."

After saying this, Thaddeus' figure slowly disappeared in front of Marvin.

A pitch-black rune landed in Marvin's palm.

Ma Wen weighed the rune and put it away properly.

Although Thaddeus is definitely not a good person, but with many friends and multiple paths, in this era, no one can guarantee that they will always be smooth sailing.

Maybe one day, this black rune will be really useful?

After Thaddeus left, the rest of the people were visibly relieved.

The coercion of high-level devils is still very strong. Although this is a ghost city that cannot be used.

Ma Wen handed over the petrified heart to the black hand, and the entrustment between the two parties was considered complete, and the black hand simply chose to leave.

Likewise, Scorched Purgatory left a whole new way to connect.

Marvin looked thoughtfully at the jet-black rune and a blood-red stone in his storage space.

Apart from the Blade of Sodom and the Book of Naaru, the biggest gains from this trip are probably these two things.

These two things respectively represent the will of the two planes of the Nine Levels of Purgatory.

Under the complex and ever-changing Feinan situation in the future, these two things will come in handy sooner or later.

Marvin firmly believed in this.

...

After leaving Devil City, Marvin parted ways with the other three.

The three of them will go through a tunnel along the way they came, and reach the other shore. At the same time, they will leave the Underdark Region and head to the White River Valley, following Madeline's orders.

And Ma Wen himself, along the rugged road, all the way west.

"It's time to visit that witch's traitor."

He looked at the endless swamp and smiled.
