This was an ancient tradition from the North Few southern nobles would use it because the Southern Wizard Alliance considered this method to be too bloody, ruthless, and uncivilized
At least on the surface
But Marvin knew that the current White River Valley was at the heart of the struggle
If White River Valley was likened to a boat, then it was facing a huge storm
Whether it would brave the wind or sink depended on this n
He knew that ever since the wilderness clearing order was released, a small place like White River Valley wasn’t low key anyth had already soared rapidly
At least in East Coast, and even some other places in the South, Baron Marvin was already the hottest topic of the summer
There were too h reputation didn’t necessarily bring benefits though

White River Valley only had Madeline’s River Shore City in the surroundings, as well as Jewel Bay, which didn’t belong to any noble
That was the South Wizard Alliance’s eastern headquarters, directly belonging to the council
And the Three Ring Toere different Although these toere part of the Alliance in name, in reality, the way they were divided was entirely different
This was the advantage of remote areas

Despite this, the attention and pressure White River Valley recieved was exceptionally high
This was a relatively backward territory after all The inhabitants, guards, and even Marvin hih
White River Valley itself couldn’t bear this kind of pressure
Fortunately, Marvin hadall kinds of adventures, he had obtained support froth in the end He had been feeling unsteady before obtaining the Dark Knights today

The cross was five to sixon top while headless bodies were piled up at the bottom
A wooden tablet was erected on the side, with the cause of death of these adventurers written on it – Not co into a puardless of the country, this was a harsh punishment for this crime
But for the current White River Valley, Marvin’s then his rule
He uys to defend this place They were in charge of registering and infor the adventurers anted to enter White River Valley
Each adventurer would receive a number plate The adventurers without plates would be expelled by the guards
If there was any rebel, kill!
Obviously, the guards would be unable to handle this part
The one ould was a Dark Knight standing behind thehteen]
He would defend this place and becouards’ backs
Indeed, the nineteen Dark Knights didn’t have their own naave the this way until [Eighteen]
The Dark Knights had no objection to this and this was convenient for Marvin to order them
After the Crimson Cross was set up, it created a stir in the territory
Adventurers who had yet to an to secretly spread words of Marvin’s brutality
Even e and escaped White River Valley
And the news soon spread to the teroup of adventurers didn’t have much of a reaction
