After Phoebe left, Han Shuo went straight to the Babylon Academy of Magic and Martial Arts, but Han Shuo avoided the front and planned to enter from a remote corner of the back mountain.
In the woods where he and Phoebe lingered for a while last time, Han Shuo suddenly became alert, and an inappropriate feeling arose in his heart for no reason. This made Han Shuo horrified and immediately released three Yuan Demons. The Yuan Demon came from Han Shuo.
He flew out from the back of Shuo's neck and scanned the entire forest, but found nothing.
However, the uncomfortable feeling in his heart did not disappear because Yuan Mo did not notice the movement. Instead, the extremely uncomfortable feeling became stronger and stronger, which made Han Shuo very frightened.
The Demon-Slaying Edge was already in his hand. Han Shuo took a deep breath, adjusted his facial features to their best condition, and tried to detect the abnormalities around him through himself. He had already shouted in advance: "Who is it, come out!"
Han Shuo just shouted this casually without any hope, because if it were an enemy, an enemy of this level would never appear because of Han Shuo's words.
But to Han Shuo's expectation, as soon as he finished his sentence, a sinister chuckle suddenly sounded in the dense forest, and then in front of Han Shuo, in the shadow of a big tree, people gradually gathered into
A humanoid figure.
"Young man, you are very vigilant. How did you discover my existence?" After the human figures gathered in the shadow of the tree, an extremely tall and thin sinister old man in gray cloth walked out. This old man had gray hair and beard, and a pair of lead pupils.
It's gray and looks lifeless.
"Based on my feeling, who are you?" Han Shuo held the Demon-Slaying Edge tightly in his hand, staring unkindly at the old man who was gradually approaching, as if he was planning to take action at any time.
"I can give you the opportunity that you lack. I know Phoebe, this little girl's master, and I don't have any ill intentions towards you. You don't have to be nervous!" Han Shuo could feel a strong feeling in this person.
Dangerous. This should be the most powerful person Han Shuo has encountered since he came to this world. Han Shuo even felt that as long as this old man made a move, he would not be able to escape death.
"Phoebe? You were brought here by Phoebe. What do you mean?" Han Shuo asked with a stern face, resisting the urge to escape from this person at all costs.
Stopping suddenly, the old man did not continue moving forward. He just looked at Han Shuo, as if he was observing the rare items for sale, and nodded. After a while, a smile appeared on his face.
.However, this smile emerged from his sinister face, which only made people feel more sinister.
"Phoebe doesn't know my existence, but I know everything about some of your recent affairs. I just listened to the conversation between you and Phoebe. I have a path for you to choose, but once you choose this
You may get everything you desire, but you may also die quickly." The old man looked at Han Shuo and said softly.
"Who are you?" Han Shuo was a little confused and had no idea what he was planning. He immediately asked again.
"Brian, his parents died when he was young, and then he was sold by his uncle to work as a handyman in the Undead Department of the Babylon Academy of Magical Martial Arts. After six years of working as a handyman, he started from the dark forest and showed extraordinary abilities in the trials. In addition to practicing
In addition to undead magic, he also seems to have a magical cultivation method..."
As the old man told Han Shuo's origins one by one, Han Shuo's heart slowly sank. Except for some secrets about the little skeleton and Han Shuo's visits to the death cemetery, most of the things Han Shuo experienced during this period were actually...
When he told it, Han Shuo felt as if he was being stared at by a pair of eyes secretly, and a kind of fear suddenly arose in his heart.
"Who are you?" Han Shuo asked for the third time about his origins.
"My name is Candida, and I belong to the Empire's 'Dark Curtain' organization. I take orders directly from His Majesty. Haha, there is such an organization in the dark behind every country. I think you should know the necessity of the existence of such an organization, 'Afterimage'
People have appeared in Buster Trading Company several times. There has been such a big commotion between you recently. Do you really think that we don’t know anything?" The old man Candida looked at Han Shuo with a half-smile, and slowly said
said.
As soon as these words came out, Han Shuo was horrified and sighed secretly, finally realizing that he seemed to be a little too young. Han Shuo had never heard of the organization "Dark Curtain", but after hearing what he said, he immediately understood.
This kind of organization must be similar to the East Factory and West Factory of the ancient Ming Dynasty in China. It should be a state machine directly responsible to His Majesty the Emperor.
"Okay, what exactly do you want to do by targeting me?"
"I want to recruit you to join our 'Dark Curtain'. I have investigated your birth, and it seems that there is nothing wrong with you. I have paid attention to you recently, and I think your behavior, coupled with some special abilities, are enough for us.'
Dark Curtain's work, as long as you join our Dark Curtain and make outstanding contributions to the empire, you can get everything you want." Candida stared at Han Shuo and issued an invitation.
Han Shuo frowned and began to think carefully about Candida’s invitation.
It's as simple as it seems on the surface, but with Han Shuo's identity and strength, if the "Dark Curtain" organization wants to deal with him, Han Shuo will basically have no choice but to die.
Now there is a road in front of him. Although the future is dangerous and uncertain and full of uncertain factors, it is indeed an opportunity. This is indeed full of strong temptation for Han Shuo, who is now ambitious. He has carefully weighed the gains and losses.
, Han Shuo felt that he didn’t seem to have much choice.
After a while, Han Shuo nodded firmly and said in a deep voice: "I promise you."
"Very good, although you may have more crises in the future, as long as you climb high enough, you will have the opportunity to see some beautiful scenery that others will never see in their lifetime." Candida chuckled,
He took out a black iron plate from his sleeve and handed it to Han Shuo: "This is the plate that symbolizes our status as 'Dark Curtain'. Please keep it carefully. From today on, you will be directly assigned to me. Your first mission,
Just pay attention to Duke's movements, oh, it's the wind mage who flew out of the house after you brought the 'afterimage' last night."
The black iron plate is very heavy to buy, with the words "Dark Curtain" engraved on the front and a crown pattern engraved on the back. However, the crown is suspended above a group of dark clouds, and the crown is also jet black.
"Who is Duke, where is he now, and how should I pay attention to his movements?" Han Shuo was startled, thinking that Duke might be surprised if he found him, and he might even guess.
The "Eye of Darkness" is in his hands. If he pays attention to this person, Han Shuo himself will take more risks.
After hesitating for a moment, Candida explained: "Duke is not from our Lancelot Empire. He is from the Cassi Empire. As an envoy of the Maya Magic Academy of the Cassi Empire, he came to your Babylon Academy of Magic for magic exchanges.
Of course, these are all excuses made by themselves, and the real purpose is definitely not this. However, they are hidden very deeply. At present, we are still unable to know why they come, so people need to pay attention to them.
During this period of time, he will often come to your Babylon Academy of Magic and Martial Arts. As a student there, you can monitor him conveniently. Oh, by the way, since you have joined our 'Dark Curtain', there will no longer be any killers for 'Afterimage'
For your trouble, I will negotiate with them to make them calm down."
Nodding, Han Shuo said, "So that's what it's like, okay, I'll pay attention to Duke's movements. So, if I find any unusual movements, how should I find you?"
"These are our three strongholds in the empire. They will be destroyed immediately after seeing them. You can use the sign that symbolizes your identity to exchange information with the people inside. However, your level is too low at present and you have no right to interfere with many things. If you can
Once you advance to a higher status, you will be able to use the resources of the 'Dark Curtain' and even directly call on the imperial army. Haha, you have to work hard." Candida said to Han Shuo.
A piece of tissue paper fell into the palm of Han Shuo's hand. Han Shuo read it once, silently wrote it down, tore the paper into pieces in front of Candida, and then said: "Okay, my mind is very messed up now.
, I also need to think about it, if I get any abnormal situation about Duke, I will report it to you."
"Well, I have to leave too. We people in 'Dark Ming' actually have a lot of freedom. We will not interfere in your private affairs. We will only come to you when there is a mission. Under normal circumstances, it will not affect you.
Life." After saying this, Candida was wrapped in a black mist, and her body became lighter and lighter. A faint magic wave came from inside, and then a breeze blew by, and he was right next to Han Shuo.
He disappeared without a trace in front of him, as if he had never appeared before.
Not long ago, Han Shuo was inspired by Phoebe to clarify what he needed. Unexpectedly, he was thrown out of the olive branch just after leaving Phoebe. After some persuasion by Candida, he just joined the "Dark Curtain".
Organization. This made Han Shuo feel that something was wrong, and he couldn't help but start to wonder whether Phoebe knew about Candida's existence, otherwise why would it be such a coincidence.
However, if Phoebe and Candida knew each other, then according to Candida's huge energy, Grover would not be worth mentioning at all, and Phoebe would not have encountered so many troubles one after another. This made Han Shuo
Some doubts.
In the woods, Han Shuo carefully sorted out his thoughts and went through what happened during this period in his mind one by one, and then walked back to the Babylon Academy of Magic and Martial Arts with a determined look on his face. www.ptwxz.com
