Chapter 31: The Thieves

The back room of the blacksmith shop is very different from the dirty mess in front.

It's neat and clean, with oil paintings hanging on the walls and it looks like they're being cleaned from time to time.

A total of eighteen candles, which will last for a long time.

Marven observed for a while, although these candles are not very long, they are all flame resistant, some of them are long, some are short.

"As you can see, there are only eighteen night walkers left in all of Fernan, including me."

"Our membership is dwindling day by day. Every time a candle burns out, a night walker leaves this world. ”

The old man's voice became stern.

Marven nodded. In the afterglow, he saw an extinguished candle standing on the edge of eighteen candles.

"That's a member who recently left, and I haven't had time to bury his candle yet."

The old man said sadly: "I have lost the ability to fight, otherwise I will definitely avenge him." ”

"He was killed by the Crimson Patriarch of the Twin Snake Cult, and he was tracking the whereabouts of these cultists, but he unexpectedly fell into their trap."

"If you do join us as a night walker, then you will take his place."

"So you're going to kill the Crimson Patriarch, it's your fate, understand?"

Marven nodded calmly.

He knew that the advanced profession of the Night Walker was not so simple.

They are not only an organization, but also seem to have some kind of mission to protect the continent.

Every nightwalker is unusually united - at least the Aboriginal people. They call each other "brothers".

They are the descendants of the Night Lord of the Ancient Times, and have always believed in some ancient creeds.

Usually, they choose to hibernate, and once they reach certain special moments, they will truly show their power to the world.

Marven doesn't know much about night walkers. He only knew that in the game, there seemed to be a small expansion update for the appearance of this class.

The long night is coming.

These four words are the motto of the Night Walker organization, which is also a prophecy.

All in all, it's an extraordinary organization. They are biased towards justice, but hidden in the shadows.

……

"Of course, now you're not qualified to talk about this."

The old man looked away from the candle.

"Of course, the Sky Awakener is some people with outstanding potential, but not every Sky Awakener can become a night walker."

"You need to go through some tests, including ability, character, will, etc. And in the course of these trials, you may die, you know? ”

Marven nodded firmly.

If you can't deal with this danger, you will become the master of the night.

"Good."

The old man saw that Marven's attitude was very firm, and for the first time he showed a look of approval.

The Night Walkers do not ask where they come from, but only pursue one creed, which is to protect Fernan when the long night comes.

For this, the ancient Night King left them many treasures.

The old man pushed open a side door, and inside it appeared to be a place that resembled an operating room.

"I'll give you something before the first test."

"Go in, lie down, keep your eyes open, and do nothing else."

Marven was a little apprehensive, but he still did as the old man ordered.

He lay in that chair like a patient about to have a tooth extracted.

The old man rummaged through the cabinets to find something, and then slowly came behind Marven.

"Whatever you see, don't panic."

He said lightly, "Those are just vain. ”

In the next second, Marven's eyes went dark.

A black bandage was tied in front of his eyes.

Suddenly, a burning pain came from his eyeballs, and the sound of an old man's mantra was whispered in his ears!

The world is spinning!

Marven only felt that it hurt to death, and his whole body was stiff!

But he didn't move.

He gritted his teeth, and there was a moist liquid flowing out of his eyes, and he couldn't tell if it was tears or blood!

Visions began to appear in front of his eyes.

A blazing fireball kept tumbling in front of his eyes, and a dark figure appeared in the fireball!

The man's face was grim and cunning, and he held the dagger in his hand, which shrank abruptly and disappeared into the light.

And yet the shadow remains.

Marven saw himself, saw his back, the shadow suddenly appeared, and the dagger pierced into the back of his heart!

He only felt a crazy pain in his heart!

"It's all an illusion!"

He sued himself.

However, this did not reduce his pain, the man he knew, the Prince of Shadows he knew so well!

The illusion and the burning sensation alternately pounded Marven's nerves, and it took more than an hour for the old man's murmuring to end.

……

The bandage was lifted, and Marven was covered in a cold sweat.

"The physique is too bad." The old man said dissatisfiedly, "You should come and learn how to strike iron with me." ”

Marven smiled bitterly, he opened his eyes, only to feel a blur in front of him.

"My eyes...... What's wrong? ”

He blinked, at first a blur - then instantly clear.

Wait a minute!

It's in the dark!

"As a night walker, how can you not have dark vision?"

"The eyes that the Night Lord has given us are much more powerful than the dark vision that has evolved from the harsh environment underground."

"Let's take a good look at it."

"Rest well, it's time to perform your first test."

After saying this, the old man handed over a parchment scroll in his hand to Marven.

Marven looked around in surprise and joy!

How did you get super dark vision?

He hurriedly checked the number of records.

【You are receiving the blessing of the Night King......】

【Phantom test in progress......】

【Pain test in progress......】

[You have gained dark vision!] 】

……

Dark Vision! Not a dark vision!

The so-called dark vision is nothing more than the ability to see a certain distance in the darkness with the help of some spells or items.

Even within the scope of dark vision, it may not be possible to see clearly.

But [Dark Vision] is different!

This is true vision, which means that Marvin can see his surroundings as clearly in the dark as he does during the day - and he can see even farther and clearer after taking up the job as a night walker!

That's how powerful the Night Walkers are.

In the distant underground, in the mysterious realm, those night elves are born with infrared vision, and the high-level drow warriors have powerful skills such as [Listening to Voice] and [Blind Fighting], but this qiē is weak in the face of dark vision.

Even if it's a nightfall spell, there is nothing to hide in the face of dark vision!

From then on, the night could no longer cover Marven's eyes.

After the excitement, Marven calmed down.

The real-world Night Walker seems to be a bit more powerful than in the game. And this organization is also very powerful because it has the inheritance of the Night King.

Joining the Night Walker yourself is not only because of advancement, but also because you can win over a powerful organization.

Marvin and the Nightwalker organization do not conflict with each other's goals, and the two sides can fully cooperate with each other.

"Let's talk about the test of the night walker first. I heard that the assessment of night walkers is very strict. ”

Marven thought so and opened the parchment roll in his hand.

It recorded a task in lingua franca, and after Marven read it, his face immediately changed!

At the same time, in his quest panel, there is also a [Career Advancement - Night Walker] mission!

This means that from the moment he gained the dark vision, his advancement has already begun, and he can't go back!

【Career Advancement - Night Walker】

[Task 1: Ability Assessment]: Every night walker is one in ten thousand, they can take charge of themselves, especially when night falls, the rest of the professionals are not their opponents. If you want to be a night walker, you have to show your strength.

[Objective: Marcus Thieves.] 】

[Requirements: Kill everyone in the bandits!] 】

[Mission time limit: 1 week]

[Task Reward: Qualification for the next round of tests; 1500 General XP

……

Below is a detailed description of the mission. The Marcus Thieves are a force entrenched in an eerie barren mountain west of Oak Town, adjacent to the Dead Hills.

This group of thieves is composed of five members, they are all good at fighting alone, but they are grouped together because of various wanted.

All in all, it's a very tricky bunch.

However, the old man's request was for Marven to kill all five of them within a week!

"It's a little difficult."

Marven frowned. However, he did not hesitate, left the blacksmith shop directly, and took advantage of the night to start the action.

(Coming soon!) Ask for a big *** recommendation vote encouragement! )
