Verse 2: The Messenger

Four years and seven months later, the New Eden Army wiped out the last formed kingdom forces in the city, and the entire city was reduced to rubble...... Today, the blacksmith shop in Palo Ernst can be regarded as quiet, except for the sound of the dwarven apprentices' iron, although noisy, but it brings Marceau a rare sense of security.

There is no continuous war four years later, there is no killing and fighting all the time, and the silence makes the cat cub happy.

He bought a light crossbow from the old dwarven blacksmith, and a bag of arrows that came with it, which cost the only silver coin in Marceau's pocket.

Iron Marceau's next target after leaving the shop was not the Adventurers' Guild, and while there were countless quests to take on, Marceau knew a better shortcut for him - the old abandoned lighthouse in the harbor area.

But before heading to the abandoned old lighthouse in the harbor area, Marceau first took a trip out of town.

Because Marceau needs a piece of beeswax, beeswax can be bought, but Marceau doesn't even have a copper plate in his pocket now, so only the hives outside the city can provide beeswax - the hive in the game is not as small as in reality, it is a behemoth, a hive built on the ground is more than two people tall, and the hive built is the most common large bee in the East University 6, each the size of an adult's fist.

It's bad news that it's a bee, but it's no different from a killer bee - but the good news is that because of the sheer size of the bees, there are usually no more than five hundred bees in a honeycomb, and now that most of the bees have left the nest to collect honey, Marceau has put on a first-order spell for herself - Animal Ignorance.

Marceau can now cast level zero and level 1 magic - yes, the shaman casts a druid-like magic spell, and this spell can make it impossible for a single bee on patrol to see him, although the cat cub thinks that this big bee can be counted as an animal, but since the system has admitted it, the cat cub can't find himself unhappy.

For each player level, this spell allows an animal target to ignore the recipient's suspension, and the bees will only fight back when the player approaches the nest and attacks them, so Marceau safely burrowed to the bottom of the hive - he lightly peeled open the hive shell, then pulled out a large piece of beeswax from it, and took out more than a dozen bee chrysalis exposed to the air due to the loss of the beeswax shell - which was a good thing, and sold to the pharmacy for a few silver coins.

With these gains, Marceau naturally fled away, because these large bees would soon show the 'good deeds' he had done, and it would be too late to think of leaving.

Back in Palo Ernst, Marceau looked at the game's dedicated forum browser and sold the remaining sixteen bee chrysalis and most of the beeswax to the NPC Apothecary, and Marceau's charm and self-improvement eloquence allowed Marceau to obtain 39 silver coins, and Marceau divided 15 of them and used them to exchange them for an alcohol lamp from the apothecary.

Walking out of the apothecary, Marceau found a master carver in the city, and spent 1o silver coins to learn the life skill: carving, and the remaining four silver coins were divided in half, and just in time he bought a piece of hardwood for carving, a carving knife, and a long bundle of rope from the master carver.

Passing through the busy harbor docks, Marceau stepped into the shadows of the alley of the lighthouse, put away the light warhammer, and began to climb up the protrusions on the wall of the lighthouse, the shaman did not climb when wearing the leather robe, and at the same time the weight of the light load did not burden Marceau, and soon he was in the middle of the lighthouse - there was a 'blank area' as he remembered - there was no protrusion for Marceau to climb.

The closest climbing point to him was a rafter that was right above Marceau's head, so after taking a deep breath, Marceau kicked his legs hard and hung his whole body on the rafter with his hands and tail.

Marceau took a breath and began to climb to the top of the kiosk where the lights were placed at the top of the lighthouse, and the moment she jumped to the top, an achievement prompt appeared in the kitten's system bar - Climber, this is a mass achievement, and when you complete it and equip it, you can effectively reduce the amount of body value reduction when climbing.

Of course, Marceau already knew this, and he first looked to the east - to the east of the city was the almost endless sea of storms, and from May to September was the storm season of the sea of storms, during which the typhoons generated in the sea would come to the east of the Great 6, causing storm after storm.

Having seen enough of the sea, Marceau turned his head to look to the north - the giant tree in the heart of Paloonster was a World Tree, and this World Tree was the primeval World Tree in order to better support the front line in order to be able to better support the front line in the era of the Plane War. Olo' let his child, the medieval world tree, set off from Mogus and brought the earth elves who lived with it to Palo Ernst to take root, Marceau had seen the Rep video of the year, in order to protect the medieval world tree successfully rooted on that hill, the living camp and the evil camp fought a bloody battle in the plain of weeping in the south of the city, until the fifth opening, the plain of weeping still has the remains of the dead and fragments of relics from time to time.

Turning around, what appeared in Marceau's vision was the unobstructed plain of the south - the entire land of the kingdom of Ashurbi could not contain the plain of sorrow, and the plain of sorrow could even reach the middle of the canary kingdom to the north, and in the glorious era, the plain of sorrow was called the plain of dreams, because the whole plain could be found everywhere in the plain of dreams. However, the army of evil undead from the plane of the dead invaded, and countless innocents were killed across the plain, so the Plains of Sorrow took its place.

In the year of sT122o, the invasion of evil, and for the next hundred and eighty years, the living have been compressed into living space, which was a sad time, but also a painful era, until the sT14oo year players came to this world, and the players who invested in the living camp spent a full 14 game years, with the sacrifice of tens of millions of game characters and countless epic battles in exchange for the victory of the plane war.

It was a time of legend.

Marceau sighed as he jumped onto the platform, and after a short rest, the kitten took out a piece of bread from his satchel, crushed the bread and sprinkled the crumbs on the ground, and then the kitten stepped aside and burrowed into the haystack used to light the lighthouse, waiting for the prey to be delivered to the door.

Soon, a flock of pigeons landed and began to scramble for the crumbs of bread on the ground, unaware that a hunter had mounted a crossbow and was waiting for his prey.

Marceau carefully looked at this group of pigeons that had left and joined from time to time, and his target was the carrier pigeons of the local thieves' guild - high-ranking nobles, arcane brotherhoods, royalty, etc.

And the Thieves' Guild was just a small organization at the beginning of the game, and now they are not capable of advanced pigeon training at all.

What Marceau has to do is kill people and sell goods, which is what players on the forums will call 'wallet grabbing' three years later.

The 'Wallet Grab' method was only introduced to players in the fifth year after the game began, when a player's guild was jealous of the NPC's armed caravans, so they successfully looted a batch of goods after careful deployment, and obtained a large amount of cash and equipment from it.

At first, there was no report from the bitter master, and the players on the forum were still a little curious, but later someone in the Thieves Guild began to post a red bounty in the Dark Guild, and the players realized that the guild actually robbed the goods of the Thieves Guild.

Because of the almost irreconcilable malice between the thieves' guild and the city management class and the aristocracy, the guilds and large organizations composed of players began to purposefully scout the thieves' guild, and soon the second and third robberies were born, because of the large amount of goods, so the players on the forum called 'wallet grabbing'.

But at that time, the Thieves' Guild had become a behemoth, and the 'wallet' had changed from a gold coin box at the beginning to an armed convoy with a large number of high-end equipment and weapons, and the Thieves' Guild naturally would not sit idly by, so after some good things were betrayed by players, the Thieves' Guild and the Players' Guild began a perennial war.

In a face-to-face war, the Thieves' Guild doesn't have the upper hand, but when it comes to covert slander and assassination, the Players' Guild can't—after all, players are Outlanders in the game world, and NPC natives are always more willing to trust each other. It was only then that players began to realize that NPCs and cities and countries were so important in terms of prestige, favorability, and legend.

Now only Marceau knows the deposit of the wallet, and the current Thieves' Guild is a small organization, which is the guild of Palo Ernst City, with only four or five low-level NPC pickpockets, and also needs the headquarters of the Thieves' Guild of Ashubi for economic transfusion, so Marceau only needs to intercept the 'wallet' full of gold coins How it came to Palo Ernst City, and Marceau has enough ways to grab the wallet.

And intercepting carrier pigeons and checking letters is the best way to reconnoitre.

Soon, a grey pigeon came into Marceau's line of sight, noticing the wax cartridge on the pigeon's leg, Marceau stood up, and the alien pigeons scattered for their lives, and Marceau pulled the trigger, and the arrow from the crossbow immediately pierced the right wing of the fluttering grey pigeon, and then nailed into the head of the other pigeon.

Dropping the crossbow, Marceau grabbed his prey, and when he saw the wax seal with the Thieves' Guild mark on the letterbox, Marceau grinned, and he took a high-resolution 3D screenshot of the wax seal, then crushed the wax seal and took the letter from inside.

"At 12 o'clock in the middle of the night, the sixth pier of the port area picked up the goods. Raising his eyebrows, Marceau pulled out the rope and tied the grey pigeon, then took out the hardwood and carving knife - now that the information was known, the next step was to forge it.
