Marvin and Lola separated outside the riverbank.

He was willing to give Lola a chance because the latter showed her talent.

Although she is a liar, if she is trained, she may become a very useful talent.

At least in future territory governance, Marvin could not do everything himself. He needed a lot of talents to assist him. Lola had such qualifications.

Even if Lola really took the money and ran away, Marvin lost only a little money.

And if Lola returns from Gem Bay with good news, then she passes Marvin's first test for her.

At that time, the White River Valley should have already been in control of Ma Wen.

"I hope I won't let it down."

Ma Wen watched the girl's figure disappear into the woods, and finally took off her mask and walked into the city.

...

River Beach City looks as calm as ever.

But this calmness is disguised. When Marvin walks on the street, he can see the fear and anxiety in the eyes of pedestrians.

There were obviously a lot of patrol soldiers. When they were guarding the city gate before, the other party asked more questions than usual.

News of the fall of legendary wizard Anthony eventually spread on the East Coast.

This powerful man who had been trying hard to protect the peace on the east coast had passed away. Before people could mourn the disappearance of their patron saint, the people of the Shuangshe Sect jumped out and did something ruthless.

They sacrificed blood to a small village.

Women, young and old, were all peeled and made into human skin kites and hung outside the village.

Although it was near the Sailing City and was a certain distance from Gem Bay, people still felt fear.

The two snakes who have been suppressed for many years finally couldn't suppress their ambitions.

What's worse is that rumors began to spread, and wizards began to lose their mana. The prophetic wizards could no longer cast spells.

The murder of Miller's family, which caused storms in the city, has not been found out, which is a clear proof.

The Lord of Riverbank City has not shown up for a long time, and so has the Chief Wizard Corps. The City Hall can only mobilize more patrol soldiers.

These patrolmen can temporarily calm the citizens' emotions.

But it cannot stop the invasion of evil scholars such as the two snakes of the world.

Riverbank City and even the entire East Coast are all in a storm. It is said that various thieves have appeared on the official road.

This is a sign of troubled times.

Marvin walked on the street, with a gloomy wind. He couldn't help but pull his clothes, but his steps became more determined.

...

Rangers Union, a young man wearing a mask walked in dustyly.

Several tellers looked at each other with their eyes slanted and were no longer interested.

This guy looks like a first-class ranger and should not have any particularly important business to do.

Who knew that the other party quickly came to a counter and knocked on the cabinet.

“I need an appraiser.”

Marvin said in a hoarse voice.

Behind the counter, the sleepy girl yawned: "What is it that needs to be identified? I am also an appraiser, and I am almost at the level of a senior appraiser."

"You can't." Ma Wen shook his head and said, "I need a master-level appraiser."

"What?" the girl was shocked.

Master-level appraiser? What exactly does it require master-level appraiser to take action?

She looked at Marvin suspiciously: "Are you sure? I can identify something."

"About ancient goblins and knowledge of compound potions." Ma Wenyan said concisely.

The girl was stunned.

These two knowledges are indeed something she has not mastered yet.

Only master-level appraisers can be involved in both knowledge.

"Wait a minute. Our union currently has only one master-level appraiser." The girl said a little embarrassedly:

"But he, he is sleeping now..."

"Don't worry, I can wait." Ma Wen found a place to sit down.

The girl looked at him curiously and couldn't help asking: "Do you know how much is the cost of a master-level appraiser?"

Marvin nodded: "From 500 silver coins."

"You really have so much money!"

The girl couldn't help but look at Ma Wen with admiration. This guy looks thin and doesn't carry much stuff on him. Does he actually have so much money?

Marvin squinted his eyes, looked at the girl, and suddenly asked, "Are you still an apprentice?"

The girl nodded: "I'm still learning from Master Cole."

"It seems that Master Cole has more than one disciple," said Marvin.

His eyesight is very toxic. The girl is very sensitive to money and her clothes are simple. At first glance, she looks like her family is not well off, but she is a bit smart.

If Master Cole values ​​her very much, she doesn't need to be a part-time teller.

The profession of appraiser still requires a lot of money in the early stages. It is already very good that she can learn from a poor family to the point of being close to a senior appraiser.

The girl nodded honestly.

"My name is Hathaway. I am Master Cole's twenty-seventh disciple."

"How long will your apprenticeship last?" Marvin asked bluntly.

"Ah? It's about three months left." Hathaway answered Marvin's question seriously.

"Did anyone hire you?" Anyway, it's okay, so Marvin simply started to try to find a corner or something.

Unexpectedly, Hathaway actually shook her head: "The world is very difficult, sir."

"Originally, last time there was a chamber of commerce heads of the Sailing City, who invited me to go to the Sailing City as their appraiser."

"But later, he died on the road and was skinned. It was said that it was done by people from the Double Snake Sect."

There was a hint of fear in Hathaway's eyes: "No one dares to go out now. I would rather be a teller in the Riverside City than contact those evil cultists."

"I'm sorry." Marvin said comfortingly: "Maybe it will be better in a while."

Hathaway shook her head, obviously treating Marvin's words as the kindness of a stranger.

But in fact, Ma Wen really considered hiring an appraiser. Even if she is only a senior, he can still train her slowly.

Although the White River Valley has not yet been recovered, Marvin has begun to consider a series of operations after the recovery.

In this world, there is a very powerful and difficult force, that is, adventurers.

If Marvin wants to quickly grow and grow the White Valley, he must rely on their power.

He made a lot of efforts to do this. It is not possible to have no professional appraiser in the territory.

He and Hathaway chatted for a while.

It took more than an hour before Master Cole appeared.

...

In the VIP room of the Rangers Union.

Marvin and Master Cole sat at both ends of the table, while Hathaway stood carefully.

"Deepwater Gem." Master Cole put down his magnifying glass and rubbed his eyes: "You guy is really lucky. This thing has a fatal power to craftsman wizards. It is said to be the most important material for making mechanical gargoyles. Without deepwater Gem, the flexibility of mechanical gargoyles will be greatly reduced."

"This kind of purity deep water gem can be processed into more than eight secondary gems, and then made mechanical gargoyles separately. The top wizards in the Southern Wizard Alliance should have the drawings of mechanical gargoyles in their hands. If you sell this thing to them, it can be worth a good price!"

Ma Wen nodded quietly and put away the gem.

He had known for a long time that this gem was very valuable, but he didn't expect it to be so valuable. If it were really a deep water gem, Ma Wen knew that the wizard who practiced the sculpting system would pay a very high price to buy it.

Because in addition to making mechanical gargoyles, it actually has another function, that is, magic power.

This information is little known, only those who know wizards very well.

But in the current world of Fernan, only wizards understand wizards, and the rest, even the masters of identification, are very unfamiliar with the wizard's realm.

Marvin is undoubtedly an exception.

He took out another item that needed identification.

It was the bottle of potion he got from the Scarlet Monastery.

He could only rely on his rich experience to recognize that this thing was obtained through compound potions.
