Bloody Cross!

This is an ancient tradition originated from the north, and few of the southern nobles used it because the Southern Wizards Alliance considered this method too bloody and cruel and not civilized.

At least on the surface.

But Marvin knew that the White River Valley is at the forefront.

If the White Valley is compared to a ship, then it will be a storm and storm.

Whether to ride the wind and waves or fall into the sand depends on this battle.

He knew that since the release of the Wild Blade and Development Order, a small place in the White River Valley, had never been able to keep a low profile anymore.

Referring to Marvin's previous performances, his legend has soared.

At least on the East Coast, and even other parts of the south, Baron Marvin is already the hottest figure this summer.

There are countless rumors about Marvin.

High popularity may not necessarily bring benefits.

The rise of the White River Valley will definitely arouse many people's fear.

The only thing that made Marvin feel relieved was that the location of the White River Valley was too remote, unlike the inland territory, and the territory of the Southern Wizards Alliance, Piling.

Near the White River Valley, there is only the River Beach City of Medilly. Gem Bay does not belong to any private nobles.

That is the eastern base camp of the Southern Wizards Alliance, directly owned by the Council.

The third ring tower is different. Although these three towers are nominally alliances, in fact, their respective territories are clearly divided.

This is the benefit of remote areas.

At least before it develops, there is no need to encounter suppression from surrounding forces.

Even so, the attention and pressure faced by the White River Valley is unprecedentedly huge.

After all, this is a relatively backward territory. No one is prepared for the corresponding one, from the residents of the territory, to the guards, and to Ma Wen himself.

The White River Valley itself cannot withstand such pressure.

Fortunately, Ma Wen has many friends. After experiencing various adventures, he received support from various forces.

But that was ultimately the power of others. Before he got the Dark Guardian today, he was actually unstable.

There are always times when other people’s power is unreliable.

Only your own strength is the most real.

...

This group of adventurers had never read the previous provisions released by Marvin before.

But they did it anyway.

This means that there are many people who are malicious about Marvin in the White Valley.

These people were hired by the enemy to disrupt the order of the White River Valley.

And in this war, Marvin cannot allow any mistakes to happen.

So he took a ruthless move.

Extreme moments, extraordinary means must be used.

Even if he has a cruel reputation, Ma Wen will do whatever he wants!

So no matter how Drew persuaded him, Marvin finally stood up the blood-colored cross!

Just a mile outside the Spider's Crypt. Adventurers who rushed over from Gem Bay can see this terrifying and conspicuous cross at first sight as soon as they exit the Spider's Crypt!

The cross was five or six meters high, and was covered with the heads of the adventurers.

Under the cross, there were headless corpses piled up.

There was a wooden sign next to it, which wrote the cause of the adventurers' death - not obeying the territorial order and entering the pumpkin field to destroy it.

This crime is a bit forced no matter which country it is in.

But in the White River Valley now, Marvin's thunder means are the best way to consolidate his rule.

He asked Drew to send two smart guys to station here, responsible for registering and reporting adventurers entering the White Valley.

Every adventurer will get a numbered card. Adventurers without a numbered card will be expelled from the security forces.

If there is any resistance, kill!

Of course, the members of the security team cannot complete such a task.

The executor is a dark guard standing behind them.

His name is [Eighteen].

He will be stationed here and become the force behind the guards.

That's right, nineteen Dark Guards. They don't have their own names.

Ma Wen simply numbered them. The leader was [zero], in order. He arrived at [Eighteen].

The Dark Guards had no objection to this, which would also facilitate Ma Wen to direct their actions.

...

After the blood-colored cross was established, it caused a sensation in the territory.

Adventurers who had not evacuated the river beach before were frightened and many people were secretly spreading Marvin's cruelty.

More people quietly packed their luggage and fled the White River Valley.

The news soon passed to the front line where the temporary camp was being built.

For these adventurers, they didn't react much.

First of all, the group of adventurers in the temporary camp were recruited by Ma Wen personally, all of whom were second-level experts. They were of higher quality, and some were even retired veterans, who knew what they had to do during the war.

In addition, they also hope that in the upcoming war, there will be no internal strife between their own people.

After all, what they are facing is a terrifying ogre!

This race has always been known for its bravery and good combat.

Ma Wen's actions made them more relieved.

In any case, under Marvin's order, the war preparations were under order.

A large number of adventurers basically moved to the temporary camp.

Some of them built their own camps, while others joined the renovation of their main camps and worked hard to get to the ground.

The logistics team was also busy, constantly transporting the most important water and food to the front.

Under Anna's command and dispatch, everything was tense and orderly.

...

In the evening, in the conference room.

"I'm sorry for letting you wait for a long time."

"I went to deal with some things."

Marvin sat on the chair and apologized to the polite Oren and Daniela, who was full of displeasure.

"It doesn't matter." Oren spoke first.

It seems that in this team, the cavalier leader has a higher status than the hostess Daniela.

The two took the seat one after another.

"I guess you two have already learned from Anna that what happened in the White River Valley some time ago, right?"

Ma Wen looked at the two of them and went straight to the point: "That woman also called herself my fiancée."

Daniela snorted coldly: "That's from the Double Snake Sect. On the way south, they attacked us. At the same time, they seemed to have close ties with the lords of certain territories, and we had to change our way."

“This has extended our arrival in the White Valley a lot.”

"Someone dares to pretend to be me. When I see her, I must kill her!"

Ma Wen was speechless.

Is this cousin too simple?

He couldn't help but knock on the table with his index finger: "Zhu is very strong. Although he has not reached the legend, he is the quasi-legendary. In addition to the divine power given to her by the Patriarch of the Sky Blue, ordinary people cannot kill her."

"But now she is no longer a problem, she is dead."

Who knew that Daniela suddenly smiled strangely: "Is that true?"

The next second, she suddenly folded her hands together and then opened them.

A snowflake landed from the sky and eventually turned into a mirror like ice and snow.

In the mirror, there is a hot spring pool.
