Chapter 10 Tasks
Quiet night, dark woods, a crescent moon hanging high in the sky.
The moonlight shone like smoke and fog over this dark woods, like a dream.
At this time, in what should have been a silent forest, there was a figure rushing like lightning. Because he was too fast, he unconsciously brought a gust of wind when he ran, and the wind was raging, but the leaves on the trees on both sides of the roll also flew to the ground.
If you look closely, it turns out that this figure is Dylan.
As he ran, he kept cursing in his mouth: "In one night, I will drive the bandit camp two hundred miles away from the stronghold, kill all the bandits, and then return to the stronghold with the head of the bandit leader." This kind of task was actually done by a newborn who had been pregnant for less than a year. What kind of dog* training method, it must have been given to her by old man Osborne, you two waited for me..."
Aa
In a luxurious manor, Master Osborne rubbed his nose and wondered in his heart, I haven't been sick for tens of thousands of years, how could I sneeze for no reason today.
Beside him, a man dressed in a baroque aristocratic costume turned his head and asked, "Master Osborne, are you feeling unwell?"
"It's okay, maybe my new disciple Dylan is talking about me. Osborne shrugged his shoulders and said to him, "By the way, how are the preparations for the 'Holy Lantern Sacrifice'?" Have you found all the materials you need?"
"The materials are all ready, and it will take another three years for the altar to be completed. ”
"Is three years enough? I've always believed that you're the fastest in the council. As soon as I found a good fit, I'll bring him here as soon as possible so I can start my experiments. ”
"Well, let's make a toast to your great experiments. As he spoke, the man took out a bottle of red wine from the wine cabinet and poured two glasses.

Not surprisingly, tonight will be Dylan's last day of training with Hannah, and Hannah's training mission is simple: to attack a thief camp two hundred miles away from the valley at night and retrieve the head of the thief leader. In Hannah's mouth, this is just a very simple practical exercise, and maybe Dylan doesn't think much of it.
When Dylan hurried all the way to the thieves' camp, it was exactly 12 o'clock in the morning.
His eyes could clearly see the environment of the camp at night, a cottage built on a half-upper waist. The cottage doesn't look big, there is a sentry set up on the inside of the gate, and several thieves are drinking and bragging with wine bottles, and it doesn't look difficult to break through.
Taking advantage of the darkness of the night, Dylan slowly reached the sentry, easily disposed of a few guards, and then walked towards the center of the cottage.
Climb past the wooden fence on the perimeter and the wooden house where the thieves live, and go straight to the outside of a large house. The big house was full of people, and it seemed that most of the thieves had gathered here. Dylan found a hole in the wall outside the house and looked into the room. The room was noisy, and the person sitting on the red chair at the top must be the leader of the thieves. After finding his main target, Dylan picked up a handful of stones from the ground and set his eyes on a few kerosene lamps in the house.
He's ready to go on a killing spree.
Tiger has always considered himself to be the best man in this part of Northern Ireland. There had been doubts about the authenticity of this matter before, but these doubtful people finally fell under his 130-pound stone hammer.
"I'm strong, so I can get whatever I want. ”
For a child who grew up in a family of thieves, this is the only truth he can understand. In the first twenty-five years, he relied on this 130-pound stone hammer to make a name for himself in the circle of thieves in Northern Ireland, and gathered some thugs to form a group of thieves. Then, he continued to rely on violence to maintain his rule among the mob.
Women, wine, and power, with these, Tiger feels like he's got it all.
The twenty-five years of good life have completely consumed his ambitions, and now he only hopes to live like this in his small cottage.
Unfortunately, this is not realistic.
He could feel that he was getting old, and the hammer that had been with him for 25 years was gradually no longer lifting. After a thief has no strength, the best outcome should be to die of old age in a cold bed. But even such a way of dying was a luxury for him.
Sitting in his large mahogany chair, he could clearly feel the light shining from the eyes of the other thieves, a light he knew very well. Just like he saw when he looked in the mirror 15 years ago, it was a greedy gaze like a hungry wolf. Presumably, these wolf cubs can't wait.
"Youth, it's so beautiful!"
Just as Tiger began to miss his youth, all the kerosene lamps in the house suddenly went out.
What's going on! Why did the lights go out?
Who did it...
Is it windy?
Hurry up and light up the lights......
Human beings are creatures that yearn for light, and in a dark environment, people will have a series of negative emotions such as panic and fear. Because in the eyes of people, darkness represents death.
While the thieves were in a panic in the house, Dylan walked in silently and invisibly. It was as if he had melted into the night, and had turned into a wind of death, and wherever the wind of death blew, the thief fell.
With a calm mind, he harvested the lives of the thieves in the field. Finally, he came up to Tiger and reached out and broke Tiger's head in a mahogany chair.
This time, Tiger no longer has to worry about being usurped by his subordinates.

"Dark magic originated in ancient times, when hell, the undead and the abyss invaded the human world, and some humans traded with the devil to obtain some spell books. People translated the words of the outer world, such as the devil's script and the demonic script, and integrated and split them into later techniques such as black magic, necromancy, witchcraft, and necromancy. ”
"And most of the 'dark spells' you have learned now are from the demons of the abyss. The spell system includes four categories: summoning, manipulating the dark element, curses, and sacrifices. As well as many small disciplines such as pharmacy, magic circle, monsterology, and dark alchemy. ”
"The average dark mage chooses one or two main directions of development, with something else to learn. I would suggest that you better start with one of the main subjects first. After Squinting Adam finished speaking, he looked at Dylan with a smile on his face, and the expression on his face looked a little unbeaten.
