Chapter 21: The Night Watchman

"Miss Island Wind, although you are the 'soulless one' favored by the gods, you take the transcendent too lightly, this is not good, and you will suffer in the future. ”

Yorkham Jones replied with the only mouth that could move, and began to pray.

"Light..."

As soon as Yorkham Jones uttered two syllables, his right hand pulled the trigger of 'Night Vanilla', and at the same time, Island Wind's apologetic and regretful voice also reached Yorkham Jones's ears.

"I'm sorry..."

"It's me who should say I'm sorry, Miss Shimakaze. ”

In response to the island wind was a chuckle from Yorkham Jones.

When the laughter fell, it wasn't bullets that flew out of the chamber of Nightvanilla', but a beam of light with blazing flames.

"Ahh

The moment the red golden flame enveloped Yorkham Jones's body, the island wind let out a series of screams.

Then, the figure of Island Wind fell out of the shadow of Yorkham Jones, and when he looked at it, Island Wind's delicate body was burned and scarred, except for his beautiful face, as if he had been whipped with hot wire.

"Class, Light Priest, Initial Talent: Immunity to all purification damage below the demigod, just like your 'Fallen' ability to manipulate shadows, is an innate skill of the class..."

"Didn't the teacher who taught you to awaken tell you, 'Don't manipulate the shadow of the Light Priest?'"

With a whisper, Yorkham Jones aimed 'Night Vanilla' at the center of Island Wind's eyebrows.

"I'm sorry, my Miss Shimakaze, if your soul is inclined to order and truth, maybe you will become a great 'God's chosen people'! ”

With that, Yorkham Jones pulled the trigger on 'Night Vanilla'.

As soon as the bullet flew out of the chamber, the blazing holy light enveloped the island wind, and in the sacred flames, the island wind was like a beautiful angel.

The blazing sea gradually enveloped the heart, and at this moment, Shimakaze suddenly saw her Shinichi, so she smiled and closed her eyes.

The imaginary pain did not come, and even the burning sensation disappeared, replaced by the cold and darkness of the abyss.

"In the darkness of eternal day, I am the child of the night, I am the sleepless soul of the night, I guard the balance of life and death, I give my life and glory to the night, until the light awakens!"

In the darkness, the crisp humming accompanied the footsteps.

With each humming of a phrase, the grey night sky darkened for a minute, and by the time the last verse was finished, all the divine light around Yorkham Jones was gone.

At the same time, all the darkness comes alive, and the bullets fired by the 'Night Vanilla' are also wrenched into pieces by the darkness.

When the figure approached, Island Wind hurriedly shouted:

"Mentor!

The comer did not speak, his clothes were all black, almost blending in with the darkness, and he and Yorkham Jones stared at each other intensely, as if to determine something.

After a long time, Yorkham Jones put away the night vanilla and said:

"What you are sure of, I am sure of. ”

"Yes, but maybe your faith is a hoax in the first place. ”

The man in black gently took off his bowler hat to reveal the top of his sleek head, and took out a bottle of potion and handed it to Shimakaze.

Yorkham Jones continued with a smile:

"Then why don't you do it? Your night watchman is one level above me, and I have no power to fight back against you. ”

After seeing that the island wind had fully recovered, the black-clothed bald head replied with a smile:

"How about one person answering a question?"

"Yes. ”

Yorkham Jones nodded, and then asked:

"How many of you are there. ”

"Not much, 15. ”

The black-clothed bald head replied and asked:

"Your identity. ”

"Knight, son of uselessness. ”

Yorkham Jones did not hide it, and then asked:

"Who is your leader?"

"Mr. Zero. ”

The bald head continued to ask:

"Your team's main quest. ”

Yorkham Jones took a deep breath and read '0' countless times in his mind before he replied:

"Unknown... But I can tell you about my main quest. ”

The black-clothed bald man shook his head and said:

"Then let me change the question, why did there be two groups of people in this era?"

Yorkham Jones replied with a smile:

"Unknown..."

The black-clothed bald head listened, shook his head again and asked:

"Then another one, who is your Mr. Memory?"

Yorkham Jones replied with a smile:

"Unknown..."

After listening to the 'unknown' for a few times in a row, the black-clothed bald head took a few steps back, saluted and said:

"Mr. Knight, you have embarrassed me so much that I even want to send you to the Lord. ”

"Grass! I really don't know!"

Yorkham Jones cursed inwardly, but still had a smile on his face:

"No way, I'm just the least good knight on the board, and I don't know much. ”

"That..."

The black-clothed bald head spat out a word, and the darkness around him suddenly surged, and then, Yorkham Jones's body was frozen, his eyes showed a dull state, and his consciousness also fell into darkness.

Seeing that Yorkham Jones lowered his hands and closed his eyes lightly, as if he were asleep, Island Wind hurriedly asked:

"Mentor, what's wrong with him?"

"Mind manipulation is generally used to torture messages, but it is useless for mind-focused professions such as 'knight', 'night watchman', 'beast spirit', 'bard', etc...."

"Psychic Power or Soul Power Profession can learn it after you advance, but your profession is a natural soul master, so you can automatically comprehend it as soon as you are fully awakened. ”

As he spoke, the bald head in black leaned into the ear of Yorkham Jones and whispered:

"For the glory of humanity. ”

...

"For the glory of mankind!"

With a loud shout, Yorkham Jones snapped back to his senses, and then saw that countless children around him were looking at him.

Then the sound of footsteps shaking the earth came towards him, and then countless fountains were sprinkled on his face.

"757479! Do you have any problem with me?"

Looking up at the old woman, and then at the blood-red sky, Yorkham Jones touched the back of his head and whispered:

"Report to the teacher, no..."

"Sit down!"

The old woman's voice was high and loud, sounding like a vigorous teenager.

Then, as she walked, the old woman continued:

"I know you don't want to waste your time on this kind of course that doesn't improve you at all, and I know that every one of you is working hard for humanity!"

"But these lessons are important!"

"I repeat! This is very important! The Lord has opened up this land with supreme power for you to look back on, so that you can know who you are and who you want to become!"

"Got it!"

Yorkham Jones and countless other children immediately stood up and replied in a loud voice:

"Understood!"

Then Yorkham Jones looked out the window.

There was nothing in the sky here, not even a single cloud, just a gray blood-red.

The land was desolate, and everywhere there were tumor-like lumps, except for a few dead grass and a cockroach in the corner.

And this kind of apocalyptic environment is the best living environment in the era of destruction, and it is even a waste of countless resources to create.

"It's mind control... What does he want to know? But Uncle Ben really doesn't know anything..."

With a few sighs, Yorkham Jones began to think about how to break free from mind control.
