Chapter 1148 Ma Wen, the protagonist of the Totem tribe
"Don't make any noise when you go back. Try to win over as many people as you can. It could be as fast as ten days or as slow as more than a month. It will be clear who is in charge of the ups and downs."
Wang Xu retracted his thoughts and ordered to Albert.
After a few months of being here, the balance of power has been reversed. The expeditionary force is now capable of swallowing up the rebels in the Koroma area, but it only costs a certain price.
If you wait another month, the time will be more mature and the cost will be relatively smaller.
The goal Wang Xu set for himself was to eliminate the rebels in the Koroma area without losing more than 20% of his own losses.
"Yes, General!"
Albert retreated respectfully, and soon only Wang Xu was left in the camp.
Seven days later, Versailles
"I'm back, I'm really back!"
In the City Lord's Mansion, a young man in his twenties looked at the sky with surprise.
He was Marvin, Marvin Cosman, the sixth son of the Lord of Versailles.
Unlike the other sons of Lord Cosman, Marvin's mother is human and is an alchemist accompanying the expeditionary force.
During the battle with the Totem Tribe, Marvin's mother was captured and was bought back by the Lord of Cosman at a large price to become his concubine.
As a mixed race, Marvin has not been abused. On the contrary, because of his bloodline, after it was determined that he could not practice the secret skills of the totem clan, his father and brothers showed great concern for him. Everyone knew that his appearance was undoubtedly that of a human being.
The young master who is not yet able to practice is the city lord's favorite son.
In fact, this is not surprising. Being unable to practice means that there is no threat.
Coupled with the love of the city lord, the person who made trouble for him is a retard, because it doesn't take much to think about it, Cosman definitely doesn't want his sons to regard each other as enemies.
A plot similar to that in novels, where a useless younger brother is bullied by his older brothers, is difficult to see in reality.
On the contrary, the younger brother is more stupid and useless, and will be taken care of by his older brothers and sisters, because everyone knows that he is stupid, so they will naturally help him.
Marvin is the stupider child in the family. His brothers and sisters have all succeeded in cultivation and have begun to form party members, but because he cannot cultivate, he can only cry secretly at night.
On the surface, he pretended to be nonchalant, but in fact, he was not feeling well at all inside.
The only thing that makes him happy is that when the big brothers and big sisters are fighting for power and their hearts are at odds, he is the only one who appears and can make everyone put aside their hostility temporarily.
Thinking of all that happened, Marvin felt like crying and laughing at the same time.
In his memory, everything he cherished was later destroyed.
My father died fighting hard, my eldest brother was killed by the rebels, my second sister committed suicide by taking poison, and my third brother was cut in half and passed away.
The fourth brother was beheaded by a traitor, and the fifth sister set herself on fire. Only he escaped because he had human blood. Afterwards, he returned to the human territory with his mother and joined his mother's mother clan.
However, this is just the beginning of the nightmare, far from the end.
My mother's family is a middle-class family. After once standing in the wrong team, the family was ostracized.
First, the ancestor of the mother clan was found by the enemy, was seriously injured and died suddenly. Through his uncle who served in the expeditionary corps, he was sent to a dangerous area to carry out orders, and ultimately disappeared.
Later, the second uncle, who served as a low-level civil servant in the Cultivation Council, was also transferred from his post because of false accusations of corruption.
At that time, many people said that it was because a demon entered the family, which caused bad luck.
Under this kind of verbal and written criticism, his mother died of depression, and Marvin also went away from home with the infamy on his back, and became a casual cultivator like a duckweed.
The road of casual cultivation is difficult. In order to cultivate, Marvin worked as a treasure hunter, a drug test boy, joined the law enforcement team, and also worked as a hard worker in a spirit stone mine.
It’s been a hard journey, a journey of practice.
Although Ma Wen has no talent in the secret arts of the Totem Tribe, he is not bad at cultivation. He struggled all the way, and without any support, he was promoted to Jindan in just thirty years.
He was promoted to Yuanying in one year, to distraction in two hundred years, and to integration in three thousand years.
Before his rebirth, he was already thirteen thousand years old. When he was trying to reach the Mahayana realm, he died at the hands of his inner demon because of his regrets.
Before he died, he thought back on his life with countless regrets in his heart.
If he could do it over again, he would not sit back and watch his father's family be destroyed.
If he could do it over again, he would not sit back and watch the mother clan fall apart.
If he could do it over again, he would not reject the girl's love because he clearly had love in his heart because he had to practice hard, causing her to follow the family's arrangement in despair and marry a man who practices yin and yang replenishment.
He practiced evil skills and was eventually harvested to death.
If I could do it again, if I could do it again
Marvin died with too much regret and sadness, and died from the backlash of his inner demons.
But when he opened his eyes, he found that things had changed. He had actually returned to the Totem Clan, back to the city of Versailles, before the expeditionary force captured the place, and before his father and all his brothers died in the battle.
"I'm back!"
Marvin looked at all this in confusion. He didn't know how he came back, but he knew he had to do something.
Otherwise, all the events of the past will surely happen again, and he will still be unable to escape the situation of his family being ruined and his family being destroyed.
"Master Marvin, the Lord of the City has asked you to come over for dinner."
When Marvin was in a daze, a familiar yet unfamiliar voice suddenly came to his ears.
"Lucia!" Marvin raised his head slightly and looked at the approaching maid, his eyes couldn't help but become wet.
Lucia, his personal maid.
Nominally, Lucia is his maid, but in fact, in Marvin's view, Lucia is more like his sister.
Because Lucia is six years older than him, Lucia has been around to take care of him since he can remember.
On the day the expeditionary force captured the city of Versailles, Lucia was outside. From then on, he never heard her voice again.
"Master, what's wrong with you?" Seeing the tears in Marvin's eyes, Lucia looked confused.
Only then did Marvin realize that something was wrong with him. He quickly wiped the tears from his eyes and asked, "Lucia, what year is it today?"
"The Divine Canon is one hundred and twenty-three thousand four hundred and eighty-three years old. Master, why do you ask this?" Lucia was very confused.
"In the 123,483rd year of the Divine Canon, which is the 100,34th year of the Cultivation Calendar, the Totem Tribe declared their defeat, the temple line surrendered to the human race, and the expeditionary force intervened in the Totem Tribe's territory to suppress the rebels.
One year.”
Marvin's eyes brightened slightly and he murmured: "Great, the time when the human expeditionary force attacks the Koroma area should be in the 100,035th year of the Cultivation Calendar, which means that the expeditionary force will not arrive until one year later. I
There’s still one year to change everything!”
Thinking of this, Marvin quickly made sure again and asked: "Lucia, are there no human legion activities here yet?"
"There are human legions!"
Lucia's words made Marvin's face change in fright.
How could it be?
In his memory, it should be a year later that the 5th Army of the Human Expeditionary Force, the 9th Division of the 12th Army, and the 3rd Regiment of the 8th Mixed Brigade would send three regiments to attack the Koroma area.
Moreover, the first attack was a failure. The three regiments of the third regiment advanced lightly and entered the ambush circle set up by the city defense army. One regiment was defeated, and the remaining two regiments retreated.
.
It was not until half a year later that the main force of the third regiment arrived and led these two regiments to defeat the city defense army and the city of Versailles in one fell swoop.
It is now the hundred and thirty-fourth year of the Cultivation Calendar. Although the expeditionary force began to suppress the totem rebels this year, the Koroma area was not a priority target.
