Roland had no intention of confronting Marco from the beginning.

Although the name Marco first appeared in the ears of players after the separation of the Ring of Ashes and the Ring of the South Wind, he was known to some high-end players as the leader of the Ashes. But in fact, his fame is far away.

Much earlier than that.

At that time, in order to obtain the profession of Embers, Roland specially studied Marco.

In the beginning, God-forsaken was not a title as it was later, but referred to Mark alone.

At that time, Marco's name was not yet Marco.

It only took him three months to obtain the seven-ring magic from Sivir, the goddess of war, and advanced to become a Silver-level Glory Priest. Because of his outstanding talent, he was personally invited by Sivir to teach in Zul.

As a district bishop in Salvador, it can be said that he has a bright future at a young age.

However, no one knows that before he became the priest of the Goddess of War, he was the God of Fire and Hammers, the God of Pain and Deception, and a loyal believer of the Goddess of Life. Before betraying them, his rank was no lower than the Silver Rank.

However, when he used a pseudonym to enter the temple of the Goddess of War, his other three names were wanted by the three temples with varying degrees of intensity.

This is incredible. After the priest advances to silver, the nature of his soul will change, and he will become closer to his god to gain a longer life.

No one has ever been able to achieve higher achievements by converting to another god after the Silver level, let alone the three pillars of gods that are neutral, evil and good. Roland also found it incredible after investigating this. This guy is simply

Official cheating. But he vaguely sensed something was wrong.

At that time, Roland speculated that there might be another reason for Marco's miracle.

After Roland finally found Marco's first name, everything came to light. The hardships of his life experience and the sordid nature of his story even made Roland not know whether to laugh or cry.

Marco started out as a commoner, and his family opened a blacksmith shop. His family was very talented, but he suffered from a strange disease. His whole body would gradually become weak, and his strength and physique would gradually weaken with age until he died.

Of course Roland knew that it was muscle atrophy, and at that time there was already a very effective treatment method in the White Tower.

However, Marco and his family are located in the remote mountainous area of ​​​​Karal, and information is blocked. They have not even heard of the name of the White Tower.

In their small place, because there is a natural iron mine, the people in the town fanatically believe in the God of Fire and Hammer.

Even at a young age, Marco showed amazing talent. In terms of attributes, Marco's natural perception exceeded three, more than three times that of ordinary people, and he was very sensitive to divine magic.

He was so sensitive that he could even see the aura of divine magic when he was just born, and when he was eleven years old, he surpassed all the priests in their town and became a silver-level glorious priest.

When priests advance to the silver level, they will have an opportunity to talk directly to the gods, so Marco's question is naturally how to cure his family's illness.

At that time, the White Tower was at odds with the forces of the gods. The Gods of Fire and Hammer had no intention of letting their family move to the White Tower for medical treatment. Moreover, for some reason, the God of Fire and Hammer had no connection with their hometown.

It's not close. Under the interference of the Stonehenge of Kalal Druid, even his age cannot be sensed.

Therefore, the God of Fire and Hammer treated him as an ordinary terminally ill priest, and casually lied to him that he could be saved as long as he exercised his body and kept his faith, in order to earn more during this period.

The power of faith. Even because he thought Marco would die soon, he was not even offered a job as the pastor of the small town.

Marco didn't care about those positions. He was still very young and believed the words of his god very easily. Then he went back and told his father who was starting to get sick with great interest.

His father just smiled bitterly and remained silent.

From then on, his father worked even harder.

So, on the day his father became a bronze-level priest, his heart finally stopped beating.

Before he died, his father told him that he had been deceived. Not only faith, but also exercise could not cure the disease, because his grandfather was a Silver-level warrior, but he still died on the day he was forty years old.

Marco, who felt deeply that he had been deceived, angrily pushed down the statues in the temple that night, and then fled with his whole family.

On the way westward, his sister fell ill. In desperation, he was deceived by the priest of the god of pain and deception into a religion and worshiped with all his heart. His mother tried to stop her in vain, so they were deceived.

After losing all his money and luggage, he even thought that his sister's illness was cured. From then on, he stopped going home and devoted himself to serving the Queen of Pain.

It only took him two years this time to become a Silver-level priest. Impressed by his potential, the group of priests who believed in the Queen of Pain frankly told him the initial scam, sincerely invited him to join the team and told him

His Baita skills are enough to cure their family's illnesses.

Marco hesitated painfully for a long time, and then decided to join the gang. He cheated and robbed, and in half a month he collected enough travel expenses and medical expenses.

But it would have been better if I had known it two years earlier.

After two years of delay, his sister could no longer be saved, and her mother died of hunger and poverty.

When he went back, he saw two tombstones. The two of them didn't even have coffins, and the shallowly buried bodies exuded the stench of decay.

He knelt in front of the tombstone all night, and then the next day he vented his anger on the priests of the Queen of Pain, and slaughtered all the priests who had cheated money in one day.

So he was cursed by the furious Queen of Pain, and launched the cultists across the country of Karal to hunt him down. At this time, his illness had already begun to attack, and he was cursed by the Queen of Pain. Every day, his muscles shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye, to the extreme

Then it started to rot.

In the end, he was covered in rotten flesh. When he was most desperate, he met a priest of the goddess of life. She temporarily alleviated his pain with magical magic and became his friend. That was the first time Marco betrayed the hearth and iron.

It was the happiest time since he became the God of Hammer. Later, the man accidentally mentioned to him that the goddess of life can even resurrect the dead.

After hearing this sentence, Marco remembered it deeply in his heart. He checked with many priests of the Goddess of Life. Many of them had seen the miracle of the Goddess of Life's resurrection with their own eyes.

With endless nostalgia for his relatives, it only took him half a year to advance to the silver level. His presence even directly alerted the goddess of life, and her saint came in person and performed the divine descending.

But when faced with Marco's inquiry, the goddess of life could only shake her head.

The resurrection of life magic is limited to wizards who can preserve their souls and believers of the goddess of life.

Like his family's situation, the souls of all family members after death will appear in the kingdom of the God of Fire and Hammer, and with his betrayal, I'm afraid his family has been tortured for many years.

The goddess of life said that her priest's combat ability was very weak, and she had always been in the camp of those who remained harmless. She could not actively provoke a war, and was unable to help him regain the souls of his relatives. Then the goddess of life apologized and asked if she wanted to mention another one.

Marco was silent for a while, and then expressed the hope that he could be cured of his illness.

The goddess of life agreed.

But as soon as her saint left, Marco fled the Temple of Life and sold his faith and soul to the bellicose and powerful Goddess of War, hoping that she could teach the God of Fire and Hammer a lesson on his behalf.

.

After he became the Silver Rank, he received desperate news from the Goddess of War: the God of Fire and Hammers was the hidden line planted by the Goddess of War in Karar - his correct priesthood was the God of Weapons, the God of Weapons.

The subordinate god of the goddess of war.

So Marco finally went completely crazy.

His soul was divided into four parts, and after devouring each other, he successfully condensed into a complete and terrifying personality through his extraordinary will.

Marco changed his name that day to "Marco" - which means the deceived in Carral slang.

He regarded all gods as his old enemies, abandoned his identity as a priest to study the ancient Druid culture, and finally developed a brand new profession with his extraordinary talent, a profession specifically designed to deal with priests. He vowed to

All the gods pulled down their thrones to at least make their life less difficult.

Having become a silver-level priest for the fourth time, and combining all the remaining powers from before, all of Marco's attributes even exceeded those of ordinary gold-level priests.

Then, he rushed to his hometown and killed all the believers in the God of Fire and Hammer with extremely cruel methods. The goddess of war was furious, and led a team of one gold and three silver to encircle and suppress Gang who entered with a new profession.

Marco the Silver Rank.

Marco showed the power of his new profession in that war. He could easily interrupt the release of divine magic. He could see through the invisibility and illusion effects generated by divine magic at a glance, and his enhanced abilities were dispelled layer by layer.

In the end, he killed all enemies above Silver level.

He abandoned the grace of the gods four times, and finally chose the path of hostility to all gods—so he was called the God-Abandoner.

Such a miserable person who can be described as Long Aotian made Roland dumbfounded when reading his story, and cursed the screenwriter Zhong Er.

In the subsequent battle against Marco, the information provided by Roland played a great role. With his support, the Peace Council easily solved him, while other guilds basically kept looking at various priests and defenders.

Exploded instantly.

However, in this era where even silver can be a local official and gold is basically the highest military force in the principality, Roland does not dare to conflict with him head-on.

The name of the robe Marco wore was [Human Will]. He used the divine language that only a priest could know and filled it with blasphemous words that cursed the gods with the blood of a gold-level priest, making all gold-level and lower divine spells invalid.

The effects of magical spells above the gold level and below the highest spire have been reduced by one-third - even if the immunity effect only reaches the gold level, it is still a very practical and high-end equipment in the era of level 70 cap.

After all, detection of divine spells and curse-like divine spells rarely exceed the gold level.

Although it was impossible to block any very important magic in that era, the instant death spells of various levels from low to high were notoriously disgusting. Just to block the various low-level instant death spells of the Death Crow.

Technique, this deep purple rare robe can be sold for a legendary price.

Of course, in that era when high-end priests could wave heavenly fire and trigger more than twenty instant death judgments with a single attack, this robe was indeed useless, but in Roland's current era, it was basically synonymous with invincibility.

The most terrifying equipment on Marco's body was not his robe, but the steel whip in his hand. It was because of his reminder that the Death Crows began to use multi-jointed weapons.

That weapon is called [Marco's Godless Order. Heartbreaking Hand], a golden legendary exotic weapon, and its type is the nine-section whip.

Not to mention the other attributes of this weapon, just one of these attributes is so disgusting that the defenders of the major unions will die or live.

Each blocked attack by Marco will make a judgment based on the perception attribute. If it fails, an internal organ will be randomly exploded. If it passes, it will also cause a small amount of damage; at the same time, if it is a priest profession, the possibility of passing the judgment is

will drop three times.

In other words, no matter how high the perception attribute is, as long as you are a priest, there is at least a two-thirds chance that you will fail the judgment. For most guardian professions, the perception attribute is not their main attribute, and even

A considerable number of defenders have a lower probability of passing than the priest.

The most terrifying thing is that if you use a shield or the like to block at close range, then when Marco's nine-section whip passes over the defender's shield, the defender will have to make nine judgments, and each one will fail.

The judgment will ignore the physical constitution and explode an internal organ. At the speed at which Marco reaches the peak of level 70 Supreme Spire, the defenders and priests will be dead within thirty seconds of the start of the battle.

As a result, the Death Crows, who could make multiple instant death judgments for each attack, started to practice multi-section weapons from scratch.
