Looking at Anna walking step by step, the man whose head had already turned into a monster couldn't help but reveal a hideous and terrifying smile.

'Very good, as long as you keep the safety of the goods and are not afraid of the accountability of those guys, you can solve these two damn little mice wholeheartedly...'

Marco, who was behind the girl, looked at Anna who was slowly walking towards the monster man. He seemed to be witnessing the girl stepping step by step into the endless dark abyss.

The young man gritted his teeth unbearably and closed his eyes slightly as if he didn't want to watch this scene happen. Reluctance, pain, powerlessness, anger... many complex emotions were intertwined in his heart.

All the past events from childhood to adulthood seemed to be replayed before his eyes.

When Marco was young, he heard the adventure stories sung by bards, and for the first time his eyes as clear as the blue sky shone with light. He excitedly told his father, a businessman, about his ambitions.

"Father! I know what I want to do. I want to be like the adventurer in the story. Be a legendary hero who upholds justice, punishes evil and promotes good!"

The young man who told his passionate dream for the first time was beaten half to death by his father on the spot. Afterwards, he was scolded for not doing his job properly and asked him to learn business from him.

The young boy was very unconvinced and could only bury his ambition secretly in his mind.

When he grew up a little, he was discovered to have outstanding martial arts talent. This made his family sought after by many similar businessmen, and at the same time, it also made his father feel embarrassed.

It's a pity that Marco, who has always been hailed as a genius and enjoys all kinds of praise and bragging, is not happy.

Later, the boy gradually grew up, and the dreams and impulses that had been suppressed in his heart could no longer be suppressed. Finally one day, he took his younger brother with him and ran (away) far (away) from (home) for his dream.

!

"Brother, believe me! In the future, we will definitely become legendary heroic adventurers. By then, the entire empire, no...the entire continent will have legends about you and me!"

It was with such a simple and pure heroic dream that two passionate teenagers resolutely embarked on the path of adventurers.

It's a pity that the path they chose is far from as beautiful as Marco imagined. This profession is far more realistic and difficult than the young man thought, let alone all kinds of trivial ordinary adventure tasks.

In terms of life and economy, the adventurers are not as generous and glorious as in the story. The situation of the heroic man who is stumped by a penny is the current world. In some cases, it is not as generous as when he was a young master of the Chamber of Commerce.

However, these are more or less acceptable to the young man. He has the patience to start from small things and small tasks, and the tenacity to endure the hardships of life.

The only thing he couldn't stand was the dark side of the adventurer community!

Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and adventurers are a broad group. Obviously, they cannot all be righteous and passionate people, but more often they are people who abandon the bottom line because of reality and interests.

Therefore, among adventurers, there is no shortage of all kinds of dark and shady activities. This is the only thing that Marco can't stand at all.

Even if the adventurer is not completely righteous, even if this profession is not romantic and beautiful, even if this profession has many tricksters...but these are not enough to extinguish the passion and justice in his heart!

…

Finally, Marco exhaled slightly as if he had made a decision. He slowly loosened his clasped hands, lowered his head, and let out self-deprecating chuckles.

"So this is my dream? It seems to be nothing more than that... Looking back now, this so-called heroic dream is really childish and half-baked."

Just accompanied by his low self-deprecation, the boy's footsteps instantly hit the ground. A blue fighting spirit like the wind emerged from his body, and his figure instantly appeared between Anna and the monster man.

He flew up and kicked hard on the man's ugly face that turned into a monster. Mixed with fighting spirit and powerful force, the head that looked like a deformed meat ball was broken into half.

But the power brought by this leg only made him take a few steps back.

Of course, this sudden attack was enough to show the young man's attitude and determination. He turned back and grabbed the girl Anna's hand, which felt a little cold and soft.

"Although I feel a sense of unconscious shame in saying that middle school students are stupid, I still want to say..."

Marco, with the corner of his mouth raised, pulled the girl back to protect her behind him, and then said firmly and harshly.

"I am a man who wants to be a hero! How can I watch a good girl go into the abyss just because I am afraid of death? If you want her? Then step over my corpse!"

The boy who completely released what was in his heart burst into a hearty laugh, as if he wanted to release all the depression and unhappiness he had felt since running away during this period.

Contrary to the laughter on his face, Marco's eyes were full of murderous intent and coldness. His expression was resolute, the blue fighting spirit covering his legs was flowing, and the fighting spirit in his body had been driven to the extreme by him.

On the other side, the sinister man who witnessed the monster man being kicked with half of his head suddenly looked ugly. After hearing Marco's stubborn words, his already cold expression became even more gloomy.

His tone was cold, and there was a hint of sarcasm at the corner of his mouth.

"What kind of bullshit hero do you want to be, little brat? I think you are looking for death! Go to hell and be your hero!"

After he finished speaking, under his control, the surrounding group of stiff-looking men, like puppet machines that had been given instructions, started to move towards Marco with weapons in hand.

At the same time, his figure seemed to turn into a black shadow, blending into the darkness again. Marco concentrated calmly, and his blue sky-colored eyes glowed again.

The battle is about to break out!

…

"It's quite interesting..."

On the other side, two people who were eating melon on the roof had been watching the show for a long time. At this moment, Bai Bai, who was standing next to Ariel, looked at the scene at the entrance of the abyss with calm eyes, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Um?"

Ben was also looking at Ariel who was eating melon over there, and turned to look at him with some confusion. He also made a somewhat puzzled voice, and then continued with a bit of fun.

"Are you moved by their performance of sharing life and death? Then do you want to help them?"

Obviously Wanwan was not such a kind person. He didn't care at all about the girl's teasing, he just shook his head and said with a smile.

"Of course not, just take a look. What I said is interesting is because of something deeper."

"You said it was? That little girl?"

Ariel frowned slightly, and a hint of vigilance flashed in her red fiery eyes.

The good feelings that had arisen towards Marco and his friends, who shared life and death, disappeared in an instant. Now I only have a sense of vigilance about being attracted to others for my own things.

Seeing the paleness of her inner thoughts, he glanced at her expressionlessly and explained in a leisurely manner.

"It's not the kind of interest you think. Haven't you noticed that those slave traders are too obsessed with that little girl?"

"It seems... something is indeed wrong. That girl is just an ordinary person, right? If she is just a human trafficker, there is no need to chase two intermediate warriors for a product... Is there something wrong with that little girl?"

The girl's red eyes stared at the dark and skinny little girl from a distance, with a hint of inquiry and scrutiny in her eyes.

"Maybe...but those mercenaries are probably more problematic. They really don't have to do this for an ordinary product. But if it's because there are other people behind them, it wouldn't be surprising."

Looking at it with some strangeness in his pale eyes, he said calmly.

"Is there anyone else?"

Ariel frowned and thought along with his words.

"Perhaps it's because of the vendetta caused by that girl's background? If it's for profit, I don't think there's anything in that little girl worth others coveting."

"Indeed, there is nothing coveted about her, she has no ability, and her beauty is not that good... But what if what they want is her?"

He seemed to see something, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Um?"

The girl didn't quite understand it at first, but soon she looked as if she understood something.

"You mean..."

"Maybe."

Bai Bai smiled lightly without any clear meaning.

"Perhaps, these two slave traders are related to the events in the valley."

Because in his perception, the man who turned into a monster and the sinister man next to him both had a very familiar aura, which was exactly the same as the chaotic aura in the abyss.

But if the aura of chaos exists in a person, how can a person remain safe and sound? You must know that chaos is chaotic in nature, and it also has extremely terrifying assimilation capabilities.

If someone who is not strong enough comes into contact with it, he or she will lose their mind and become violent and chaotic; at worst, they will directly turn into a chaotic monster and completely become a bloodthirsty monster.

Those two men who didn't catch slaves were obviously not strong enough. But they were able to control a certain amount of chaotic power while being infected with the aura of chaos?

There must be someone else behind him, and the chaotic aura is probably controlled by him. Therefore, he can safely exist in the bodies of these two people without assimilating him.

With this level of power, I really don’t know how many people the other party has infected. But there is no doubt that the existence of such power only needs the people behind the scenes to think.

He can be turned into a carrier and puppet of chaos in an instant, which may be similar to those puppet minions.

Combined with Wanwan, we can see the changes in the entire Abyss Valley. The chaotic atmosphere everywhere in it is becoming unified, and I am afraid that it is gradually being controlled by the mastermind behind the scenes.

"Is it still related to the incident in Abyss Valley? Then I'm afraid the guy behind this incident is a bit scary."

Ariel trusted Bai Wan's speculation, but she didn't show any fear towards the terrifying mastermind behind the scenes. On the contrary, she, who was naturally aggressive by nature, had an expression of eagerness to try.

Glancing at her fighting expression, he gave a pale smile and said.
