"Sorry. I am just drinking by myself.

"

nMarvin smiled and ignored the young barman's awkward expression before turning to leave.

nMarvin's face became solemn as he left Whisperer.

nHe could feel that someone was following him.

nAlthough it wasn't clear which force the pursuer was from, they definitely didn't have good intentions.

nThis was Holy Light City, the Gods' territory!

nMarvin had offended many people in the God Realms.

nMarvin felt something wrong when the barman approached. That young man was way too enthusiastic.

nIf he had asked him for information, he would have exposed his intentions and possibly received false information.

n'Want to track me?'

nMarvin sneered and entered a dark alley before using Stealth.

nHe reached downtown after crossing the alley and quietly sent a few Paper Clones in different directions inside the crowd, thus getting rid of the pursuer.

nIn spite of this, he couldn't figure out who was playing tricks behind him.

nThe one tracking him was very meticulous. Whoever it was, they didn't expose themselves.

n'Have I been watched ever since I entered the city?'

nMarvin remembered that there had been no change in expression when the guard glanced at him when checking his pass.

nHe kept thinking back, but didn't discover any mistakes that he had made.

nTherefore, it was most likely that a Divination spell was being used to track him!

nBecause he was in Holy Light City, if a Divine Servant or a follower of similar level used Divine Power to conduct a Divination, it would be very accurate.

nThus, although Marvin temporarily managed to lose his pursuers, they would inevitably be able to find him again.

nHe had to stay on the move.

nMarvin used Disguise to change his appearance again and entered another tavern.

nHe was straightforward this time. After making sure that no one was paying attention to him, he found a shrewd-looking Dwarf.

n

"If you are looking for information, then you came to the right person.

"

n

"There is nothing I don't know about in Holy Light City, but the price…

"

nThe greedy Dwarf pushed up his glasses and rubbed his fingers together.

nMarvin wordlessly pushed two Blood Essence Stones over.

nThe Dwarf unhesitantly accepted them and boasted shamelessly,

"You can ask your questions now.

"

nThe meaning was that the two Blood Essence Stones were only enough to start the conversation. The true information would require additional fees.

nBut Marvin was rather well-off at the moment. He still had many Blood Essence Stones that he had gotten from plundering the Demonic Altar.

nHe would rather get it done fast since he was so close to his goal.

n

"I'm looking for a Half-God. His name is Minsk, and he is the child of the Ancient Nature God,

" Marvin quickly said.

n

"Minsk?

" The Dwarf frowned.

"It's been so many years, yet someone is still looking for Minsk? Who are you to him?

"

nMarvin remarked with coldness and indifference,

"I only need to pay for the information. I don't need to satisfy your curiosity.

"

nThe Dwarf chuckled and agreed,

"As you say. You want information about Minsk? 30 Blood Essence Stones.

"

nMarvin paid without any objection.

nAfter receiving the money, the Dwarf calmly said,

"Youth, you are late.

"

n

"In my opinion, Minsk is most likely dead.

"

nMarvin's eyes widened.

n...

nFive minutes later, Marvin left the tavern.

nAs for that Dwarf, he looked at Marvin's back as it disappeared behind the entrance and then quickly called a barman over.

n

"Notify the two sirs of the Dream Shrine. The person they are looking for has appeared.

"

n

"By the way, that person seems to be looking for Minsk. I'll consider that information a gift, don't ask for a reward from them.

"

nThe barman nodded and curiously asked,

"The story you told him concerning Half-God Minsk, was it true?

"

nThe Dwarf glared at him.

"Naturally. I sell information. Reputation is very important. These are two completely different matters. The Dream Shrine's people can't pay me to tell lies. And that boy paid generously, I like this kind of customer.

"

n

"Oh, such a straightforward customer is about to be killed by the Dream Shrine's people, what a pity.

"

n...

nIn a corner of Holy Light City, Marvin disguised himself as a middle-aged man and was silently gnawing on some bread.

nHe was thinking while walking.

n'Minsk actually went to the rumored Wilderness Hall... What kind of situation is that?'

n'That Dwarf shouldn't be lying. When Minsk sent a letter to the Migratory Bird Council, he had yet to enter the Wilderness Hall. He then went in, and no news of him appeared ever since.'

n'The Wilderness Hall is rumored to be a like a tomb for Legends. No one ever comes out alive, even Half-Gods. This bodes ill.'

n'Moreover, the Wilderness Hall isn't always there. It is said to be in the wilderness east of Holy Light City, but can't be seen most of the time. It would rarely appear in front of people.'

n'But apparently, a lot of people claimed to have seen the Wilderness Hall in recent days.'

n'Isn't this too coincidental?'

nMarvin frowned.

nHis gaming experience didn't help him much when it came to the Wilderness Hall.

nThe Crimson Wasteland was already a place that hadn't been released in the game, so Marvin could only keep moving forward.

nBased on the information he got from the Dwarf, the Wilderness Hall was said to be a terrifying temple established by an Ancient Evil God for his resurrection.

nHe claimed that the Wilderness Hall contained countless Artifacts and powerful spells, but no one came back alive after entering.

nA typical example was the Half-God Minsk who had lost his fame.

nAs the Ancient Nature God went into a slumber, the other Gods lost respect for Minsk.

nLike Miss Silvermoon, although Minsk's strength couldn't reach the peak of the Universe, no one would dare to make a move against him.

nBut because of the special circumstances, he chose to enter the Wilderness Hall, and like all the others, didn't return.

nIf that had been the whole matter, Marvin would have just returned to report it.

nBut coincidentally, the Wilderness Hall, which had remained hidden for hundreds of years, appeared once more.

nHoly Light City's eastern suburbs weren't peaceful. Many passers-by had seen the traces of the Wilderness Hall.

nSomeone even claimed that the Cold Light's Grasps were in the Wilderness Hall.

nIt had been unclear whether the death of Miss Silvermoon at that time was related to the Wilderness Hall.

nThat strange place made Marvin recall the Dead Area Continent's Secret Garden.

nWho knew whether the Wilderness Hall was a trap or not?

nCold Light's Grasps might also be bait, like the Magic Medicine King Eric had been.

nThe true mastermind was behind the trap and would devour everyone that walked in!

n...

n'There is no need to take such a big risk because of the Migratory Bird Council's mission.'

nMarvin thought for a long time before finally coming to that conclusion.

nThe withering of the World Tree wasn't something that he alone could settle. Moreover, Endless Ocean also went to the Green Sea Paradise to look for another trail. His side failing didn't mean that there was no hope.

nHaving had these thoughts, Marvin was preparing to leave Holy Light City for the moment.

nBut that feeling of being observed once again appeared in his mind!
