They were just free people, they didn't own land, they didn't want to farm for others, and they lived by paying to fulfill their commissions.

In Ma Long's opinion, these adventurers are not bad to say that they are vagabonds, but he still welcomes these people to come to the Black Stone Territory.

The arrival of adventurers has brought more popularity to the Black Stone Collar, which is also one of the sources of the population, and Malone has co-opted some of them to settle down.

They have traveled from south to north and have seen a lot, and they are ideal candidates for taverns and innkeepers.

It's still useful to have them gather some less classified intelligence.

Standing on the rooftop of the castle, Marlon swept his gaze over the bustling bazaar, over the ten-meter-high city walls, and into the fields in the distance.

The farmers are harvesting the golden wheat, and it is another harvest season.

Ever since the castle was built, Malone has loved coming here because of the panoramic view of the entire Black Rock City.

Usually there are lookouts here, but Marlon is here, so he asked him to be on standby.

Three years have passed, and Ma Long's level has increased again, although he has not participated in the recent battles because the scale of the battle is too small and the enemy is too weak.

But the experience gained from his subordinate army also led to Ma Long's promotion by two levels.

A year ago, Ma Long successfully completed the introductory cultivation of divine arts.

After Illya's assessment, Malone obtained the status of a priest, allowing the panel to unlock a new profession.

The knight and the priest combine to become a paladin!

Marlon opened the panel that he hadn't seen for a while-

——

The new class Paladin did not start at level one, but at the fifth level of knighthood, and then moved up to level six.

Because of the training in the past few years, and the increase in age, plus the level has been increased by two levels, a total of five points have been improved.

"Sun-chasing swordsmanship" is the last skill of the legendary samurai system that Ma Long learned.

Suddenly upgraded two years ago, Ma Long found that his original subordinate army could also gain experience when fighting, although it was greatly reduced.

The original day-by-day skill introduction was "Divine Qi Fusion, emitting scorching sword energy to attack enemies in the distance", which is actually a ranged version of Agni.

Later, after practicing to the full level, Ma Long developed the fourth level according to the theory of Taoist essence and spirit in his previous life.

Resurrection, that is the ultimate move of the paladin in Warcraft, after the transfer and upgrade, Ma Long chose this skill for the first time.

Two months ago, a hunting party soldier died unexpectedly, and after bringing back the body, Malone performed a resurrection spell on him in front of everyone.

Ma Long held one hand high, and a rich holy light fell from the sky, and the warrior was immediately resurrected.

The hearts of those present at the time were full of shock, and for a moment doubted the authenticity of what they had seen.

When it was truly confirmed that Marlon was able to resurrect the dead, in the Black Stone Collar, Marlon's prestige reached its peak.

There are countless more fanatical admirers, known as the darlings of the Holy Light.

On that day, many people left the Blackstone Territory, they were all spies of other forces, tasked with transmitting information.

The lord of the Black Stone Domain, Ma Long, was able to resurrect the dead, which was a big deal, so it was natural to spread the news quickly.

After ventilating with Marlon, Illya also passed on the situation to the temple, and her news was the most detailed.

……

"Step, step......" The footsteps of the guards going upstairs interrupted Ma Long's thoughts.

Although others can't see it, Ma Long still closed the panel, not afraid of 10,000, just in case, it's always right to be careful!

Turning to look at the staircase, a guard from the Lord's Mansion was coming up from downstairs.

Seeing that the lord was looking at him, the guard couldn't help but be excited, hurriedly bowed his head and saluted, and his right hand clenched his fist to support his chest and said, "Lord Lord, Pastor Elija asks to see ......"

Looking at the guards in front of him, Ma Long could feel the excitement of the other party, and he could clearly hear the sound of his heart beating rapidly.

Ma Long believes that the other party's eyes must be full of enthusiasm when they look at him.

Since the resurrection, the subordinate army, the guards around him, and many people in the Black Stone Territory have all been like this!

Retract the thought of going astray: "Please come up!" Malone commanded.

"Yes!" The guard replied with a sonorous voice, bowed and took two steps back, then turned and walked briskly downstairs.

Marlon waited quietly, and after a while, light footsteps sounded on the stairs, and Elijah came up.

She was still wearing a white priest's robe, and her posture was leisurely and floating.

Seeing Ma Long, Illya smiled and said, "I saw you on the rooftop from afar, what are you looking at?" ”

"Look at your territory!"

Illya walked to Ma Long's side, propped her hands on the edge of the wall, concentrated most of her weight on her arms, relaxed her body lazily, and asked leisurely, "Something on your mind?" ”

Marlon turned to look at Elijah, the breeze caressing, pulling up her mischievous hair, rippling in the wind, and slicing across her smooth chin.

The morning light shone on her, as if it was shining, and Malone couldn't help but look stupid.

Without waiting for Ma Long's answer, Illya turned her head, but saw that Ma Long was looking at herself in a daze, and her heart was filled with joy for no reason.

Seeing Iliya turn her head, Marlon woke up suddenly, rubbed his nose a little embarrassed, and hurriedly changed the topic: "When will the people from the temple arrive?" ”

Illya turned her head, looked at the field in front of her, relieved the throbbing in her heart, and replied: "It's just these two days, if it's fast, it should be there two days ago, there should be something delayed." ”

"Hmm......" Malone responded, indicating that he understood.

"By the way......" Illya asked tentatively, "why did you expose the resurrection?" ”

"What, why?"

"With your personality, something like resurrection should be hidden and used quietly."

Marlon pondered, and instead of responding positively to Illya's question, he asked instead, "How do you think the Black Stone Collar is now?" ”

Illya said without thinking: "It's good, you have developed like this in just three or four years, it's amazing." ”

Marlon shook his head, a little interested, "It's a good ......, you know?" I have been assassinated four times in the past three years. ”

Illya exclaimed, "How did I not know? ”

Ma Long said slowly: "Except for me, few people know, every time the other party picks no one, after all, no matter what the reason, assassinating nobles is a big crime." ”
