That man didn't relax when he saw Marvin's doubtful expression, instead becoming more vigilant .
From what he knew, all newcomers would be informed of the rules before joining the Crimson Battlefield .
There was clearly something wrong about this guy suddenly appearing in this sensitive area .
Especially in such troubled times .
The man's wrists shook, turning into a mirage in an instant while attacking!
Marvin frowned .
The Crimson Wasteland was truly dangerous . He didn't even do anything, yet the other side already attacked him!
But he was no coward . That man in front of him was admittedly quite strong, but Marvin was still very confident .
Shadow Step!
Facing the opponent's high-speed attack, Marvin casually dodged .
Godly Dexterity was still able to overpower most of his opponents .
He quickly reverse-slashed, only to hear the sound of his opponent blocking it!
'Good reaction speed!' Marvin noted, feeling somewhat startled .
This man was very fast, but what seemed most significant was his reaction speed!
He used a single one-handed weapon, with nothing in his other hand . That way, regardless of whether he was attacking or defending, he could quickly maneuver his blade .
As everyone knew, long weapons actually were at a disadvantage in very close quarter melee battles .
Marvin's Shadow Step followed by the reverse slash was something few people would be able to react to . An expert might be able to dodge, but that would give Marvin the upper hand .
However, that man actually blocked the attack .
His reaction speed and bodily coordination were top class .
His Dexterity might not have reached Godly Dexterity, but Marvin was sure that it was at least at 27 .
This was very rare for the natives to achieve, as they didn't have Marvin's Essence Absorption System, after all .
Both of them threw out attacks and countered each other's moves .
Marvin's twin daggers had the advantage in melee and thus he kept sticking close to his enemy .
His opponent clearly understood that point too . He tried to increase his distance from Marvin, but Marvin's speed and reactions were in no way inferior .
The two fought for a while, with neither of them gaining much of an advantage over the other .
Marvin wasn't going at full strength because he still didn't know about the circumstances .
As for his opponent, he seemed to be saving his energy too . 'Probing, maybe?'
Thinking of this, Marvin suddenly retreated, taking the initiative to distance himself from his enemy .
"I truly just arrived at the Crimson Wasteland . I'm not too clear about factions," he quickly reasserted .
The bulging veins on his opponent's arms gradually calmed down .
He looked seriously at Marvin for a while before suddenly shouting, "Red Witch?!"
In response, a scarlet shadow slowly appeared in the vast paddy field .
Marvin shivered . That woman's hiding skill was extremely good . Although she was pretty far away, it was still impressive that she was able to evade Marvin's perception .
A sexy red-gowned woman appeared between Marvin and the scarred man .
She had a thick layer of makeup on her face and exaggerated blood-red lipstick!
Red Witch squinted and said in a rough voice, "An impure Human with a Devil bloodline…"
The man brandished his blade and sneered, "Then he is a spy from the [Devil Pond]?"
He seemed ready to attack as he said these words .
But Red Witch stopped him . "Ronan, wait!"
"I just traced the Teleportation Gate he used . It's another one, not from the Crimson Wasteland . "
Ronan frowned as he insisted, "Couldn't the Devils be using another plane as their springboard? This happened to [Eisengel] before . "
Red Witch shook her head, "Unlikely . I don't believe the Devils would be able to use that plane as a springboard . "
"What do you mean?" Ronan asked .
Red Witch seriously said, "I mean that he came from the prime material plane, Feinan . "
Ronan's eyes widened .
Marvin shrugged . "Looks like I didn't get to become a spy for long before the suspicions got washed away?"
Ronan thought for a bit before putting down the blade in his hand and telling Marvin, "It's normal for some to not be able to adapt to this kind of thing the first time . "
"You'll get used to it after experiencing it a few times . "
"Isn't that place called the [Crimson Wasteland] after all?"
. . .
The two men walked through the paddy field .
Red Witch stayed hidden . According to Ronan, this woman wouldn't easily show herself .
Ronan and Red Witch were partners . Of course, they didn't voluntarily choose each other . They were assigned to work together by the camp .
The camp they talked about was called [Eisengel] and was the base of operations of the Humans in the Crimson Wasteland .
The Crimson Wasteland was a very terrifying land of slaughter . There were all kinds of things there, from Angels to Demons, from Evil Spirits to Beasts, but naturally, Humans had the most people .
The Humans were powerhouses that came from all corners of the Universe . It was rare to see anyone below the Legend rank here because they would die very fast .
Even so, mankind's status in the Crimson Wasteland wasn't stable . They needed to work together and protect each other .
Eisengel was the biggest human colony in the area .
Eisengel and the few surrounding groups, Devil Pond, Mushroom City, and Dark Abyss, were hostile to each other .
If two sides met in the wild, they would definitely have a battle to the death .
Battle was the theme of the Crimson Wasteland .
And the existence of these camps allowed the powerhouses to have a resting place in between battles .
Eisengel was named after its founder, the Legend Wizard Eisengel . The vast field of rice straw was said to cover over six hundred thousand square meters and concealed the camp's entrance .
Ronan and Red Witch were one of the patrols of Eisengel . When they met Marvin, they were on their last day of duty .
After this day, they would return to Eisengel to report their findings .
The camp provided the members with protection and necessary information, as well as a platform for communication . But joining a faction also required one to perform services and carry their own weight .
Examples included patrolling or completing some missions released by the camp .
Although patrolling was very dull and took a long time, it was relatively safer .
And the missions released by the camps were rather dangerous . Even Legend powerhouses didn't dare to take them lightly .
Legends weren't much in this bloody land after all .
. . .
Hearing Ronan's introduction of the camp, Marvin started pondering .
The Crimson Wasteland's structure was more complex than he had thought .
The Druids didn't give him information about this camp . But this shouldn't be blamed on them .
The information that the Migratory Bird Council had was at least 300-400 years old .
And the ratio of the flow of time in the Crimson Wasteland was 1 to 6 . The two weeks Marvin had promised in Feinan would be twelve weeks here . Close to three months .
He originally thought that he had a lot of time and could still hunt for some Divine Servants on the way to increase his power . But now it seemed that it would be far from simple .
He had to look at Eisengel first .
. . .
After Ronan and Marvin talked about a few simple matters, they continued in silence .
Information in the camp was considered quite valuable . Since Marvin was completely new, the old members had to tell him about some necessary rules, but for the rest, Marvin would have to buy the information himself .
Blood Essence Stones were used as the common currency in Eisengel . This kind of stone was a special product of the Crimson Wasteland and contained the purest type of energy, comparable to Divine Source .
It's just that the amount of energy contained within a Blood Essence Stone was very little compared to a God's Divine Source .
Some legends said that the reason the Crimson Wasteland was producing Blood Essence Stones was because the war waged in those days resulted in the fall of too many Gods .
After the Gods died, their blood and Divine Source mixed together in the earth, forming Blood Essence Stones .
In short, Marvin was now completely poor in a totally unfamiliar place .
This made him quite uncomfortable, but it also gave him an unprecedented feeling of excitement .
Perhaps, deep within his bones, his adventurous nature emerged once more .
. . .
The entrance to Eisengel was hidden deep within the paddy field . Each member of the camp knew the password .
After removing a scarecrow, a weasel would jump out .
This weasel would ask a certain question, and only if it heard the correct answer would it open the door to Eisengel .
That's right, Eisengel was hidden underground, surrounded by severe spells . This was also why the other forces couldn't inflict a deep blow to the weakened Humans .
Each time Eisengel changed the password, only the true members of Eisengel would learn about it .
It was said that a spy had once appeared in Eisengel which caused a huge uproar in the camp . It was almost invaded by the Abyss' Demons . Thus, Eisengel was very strict regarding outsiders .
Marvin entered Eisengel under the lead of Ronan and Red Witch .
After walking down the long tunnel for about ten minutes, Marvin was taken to a place similar to an interrogation room .
There, an old man wearing fancy glasses asked Marvin many questions for about half an hour .
And the whole time, there was a Wizard who was an expert at Divination in charge of testing whether Marvin was lying .
Naturally, Marvin couldn't give an answer to some questions . After all, everyone had their own secrets . Overall, Eisengel did great in this area .
After guaranteeing that Marvin wouldn't pose a threat to the camp and was truly standing on the side of mankind, they gave him a small medal .
This medal had Marvin's name on it and symbolized that Marvin was a new member of Eisengel .
After leaving the dark interrogation room, Marvin was taken to another cave .
There, a disabled person specialized in explaining the rules to newcomers quickly told Marvin the rules once .
Twenty minutes later, Marvin was finally able to walk freely in the underground Eisengel .
. . .
Eisengel was definitely not the biggest city Marvin had ever seen, but it was certainly the safest .
Regardless of where he went, he could feel the rich arcane energy .
A large number of spell arrays were constantly activated, with Wizards' Eyes watching all corners .
Maybe it was because the founder was a Legend Wizard, but Eisengel had quite a few Wizards .
Wizards of the Crimson Wasteland mostly came from Secondary Planes . They came here for their own various reasons, and some who weren't already Legends broke through, ultimately reaching the Legend Realm .
These people might have more willpower and creativity than Feinan's powerhouses .
Marvin strolled around casually and got a concrete understanding of Eisengel .
The underground city wasn't big, which could be inferred from the fact that it was described as a "camp" .
This was basically a smaller version of a town . Although the Crimson Wasteland gathered Legends from all corners of the Universe, Legends were few in number and Eisengel wasn't the only gathering location of Humans .
From what that disabled person said, this place only had about 300-350 people living here all year long .
But one shouldn't look down on these numbers . Everyone there was a Legend powerhouse . There was hardly anyone without considerable fighting power .
Like the old man who explained the rules to Marvin, for example . He had once been quite formidable, but due to some special reasons, he retired and now worked in the camp's daily defense .
Everyone still needed to fight .
. . .
Eisengel could be further divided into five areas:
[Commercial District]: An area located in the northeastern part of the underground city . It encouraged free trade and had no taxes . Most would conduct their transactions by bartering . Although Blood Essence Stones could be used to purchase some things, it was hard to get the good stuff .
[Resting District]: Some residential areas in the southern part of the underground city . The district was enough for most of the people to take a rest, but the conditions weren't that great .
[Announcement and Accounting District]: The area where the camp released patrolling missions and other assignments . It was also the place to claim the rewards for completing the missions .
[Warehouse]: Eisengel's warehouse was hidden, and only the camp's higher-ups could access it .
[Eisengel Square]: A vast area with entertainment facilities as well as restaurants .
Besides those five areas, the others weren't worth being mentioned .
Marvin noticed that every passerby was on high alert .
Although Eisengel was said to be absolutely safe, it seemed that most people didn't actually think so .
Marvin's top priority was to find his own location in the Crimson Wasteland .
He had a map in hand which would be used to find the Half-God Minsk .
But that map was damaged . It only had a few landmarks left on it, which wouldn't be enough .
This meant that he needed to acquire a map of the Crimson Wasteland .
Fortunately, there was a similar kind of map available in Eisengel .
Unfortunately, it wasn't free .
