“You…” Old Mo tried to say sothing several tis, but swallowed his words back, “Forget it, your existence has already gone beyond my understanding…
Be careful on your own when you go back, although I really don’t want to break my word, it seems there are quite big issues with you.”
“If you see that little girl again, try to ask for so clues…”
Upon hearing this, Lin Yi couldn’t help but marvel, “Really?”
Old Mo nodded gravely, and then said sothing that almost choked Lin Yi: “After getting the information, try all ans to record it, so that those who co later can add it to the corresponding rules in ti…
to avoid harming others.”
Lin Yi’s face darkened.
It’s not brotherhood, you are sure that I won’t survive, trying to maximize my value, huh…
“What exactly is that little girl?
Is she that terrifying?”
“I told you I don’t know, but you should know, the things even I am unaware of…
those are the real terrors,” Old Mo said, “When you see the Night Watchman later, if there’s a chance, I can help you ask about the situation.”
“Night Watchman?” Lin Yi was startled, the term ‘Night Watchman’ appearing here was more reassuring than a lifeline, in the Art Building area, these three words ant absolute safety.
Because once there arises a situation even the Night Watchman cannot ensure safety, then it truly becos a matter of life and death, each to their own fate.
“Old Mo, are you saying…
there’s a Night Watchman above the Bell Tower?”
“What else do you think Mu Daxian is doing at the Bell Tower?
By himself, wouldn’t going to the Bell Tower be seeking death?” Old Mo retorted.
Lin Yi thought internally that weren’t you implying from the start that ‘Mu Daxian is seeking death’, but of course, he kept silent.
“That guy heard sothing related to ‘Night Watchman’ from sowhere and has been trying to find a way to beco a ‘Night Watchman’…
This ti he probably went with that purpose in mind.”
“‘Path to becoming a Night Watchman’, can an Art Student beco a Night Watchman?”
“Theoretically, there is no subordinate path to becoming a Night Watchman, even for a Security Guard, who is closest in supernatural traits to a Night Watchman, there is actually no interaction between them,” Old Mo shook his head, “Night Watchman…
is a completely independent path, theoretically anyone who ets the criteria can beco a ‘Night Watchman’, a Security Guard can beco a Night Watchman, but it doesn’t an a Security Guard is subordinate to a Night Watchman…”
“Any identity can be subordinate to a Night Watchman.”
“However, so far, only old Night Watchn have fallen, there has never been a new Night Watchman born…”
“In the history of Black Moon Outpost, there have been a total of six Night Watchn, at one ti there were a maximum of four Night Watchn guarding the Black Moon Outpost at the sa ti, during that period, Black Moon Outpost was impregnable.”
“When the campus was established, and Black Moon Outpost was rebuilt into the Art Building, only three Night Watchn remained.”
“Theoretically, that’s because there are three ‘Night Watchman’ positions vacated in the campus, which would be why Mu Daxian went in search…”
“Speaking of which, last year, there seed to be soone who wanted to explore this path, but died miserably and involved many Sports Students…”
“Inside the Art Building area, every ti there’s a Grey Mist Invasion, Night Watchn must concentrate all their strength to prevent Angels from descending…”
“Art Teachers then use ‘Light’ to try to prevent the Sneering Angel and Nocturnal species from infiltrating the Art Building…”
“And the Art Students split into different teams, so forming matrix reinforced layers in different areas of the Art Building like those in the lobby, so lead seedlings to refuge, and so confront those utterly distorted Zealots…”
“Of course, the path I’m taking you on, you won’t encounter those kinds of Zealots, the level of contamination here is the lightest in the entire Art Building…”
“Because of the Night Watchman?” Lin Yi asked.
“Smart.” Old Mo said, “Although the domain of the Night Watchman doesn’t cover here, still very few dark and evil things dare to offend this place.”
“That’s not right, Old Mo, aren’t there many nocturnal species lurking outside the door?” Lin Yi raised the question, “The mont the door was opened just now, those creatures sward in.”
“They dive into any hole they see, and by the ti their instincts sense sothing is wrong, it’s already too late to run,” Old Mo explained, “Even if I don’t kill them, they wouldn’t survive here, but if I don’t kill them, they would annoy us by frantically biting.”
“We’re almost there…” Old Mo said, shifting his focus ahead.
In the depths of the corridor, a secluded iron door gradually appeared in the dim vision.
The wind seeping through the door gently swayed the sign hanging on it, occasionally making a crisp “clang” sound, while the returning wind wreaked havoc in the world behind the door, emitting “woo-woo” sounds, like soone crying.
“Anyway, I’m not very clear about so things, whether it’s dangerous or not, we better ask the Night Watchman, of course, the Night Watchman might not help us,” Old Mo spoke as he already reached the iron door.
Getting closer, Lin Yi noticed that there were so carved lines on the iron sheet, resembling so ancient symbols.
Old Mo gently touched the iron sheet, muttering, “This is a maxim from the ‘Iron Law of the Night Watchman,’ aning roughly, ‘Tower of No Bell, dazzling Netherworld Light, sound booming far across the nine seas and beyond wilderness.’
“‘Tower of No Bell’?”
“No bell, no end, start nor finish…
this is the creed strictly adhered to by the Night Watchman, from that almost unrecorded ti of the unknown, guarding until so day in the future…”
“No beginning and no end…” Lin Yi murmured to himself, softly touching the iron sheet.
“Ding!”
As his palm touched the iron sheet, a crisp sound echoed in his mind, followed by a second, then a third…
“Ding!
Ding!
Ding…”
It was like soone in a cave hamring on an iron sheet, rhythmically compelling Lin Yi’s fingers to unintentionally tap lightly on the iron sheet.
Just then, his vision flickered unexpectedly, and in that intersecting light and shadow, he seed to see a scene…
He saw a gaunt figure forging sothing by a furnace; with every strike, new marks appeared on the iron sheet.
His attention slowly focused on the iron sheet, only to find the carvings gradually getting rusty, as if weathered by countless years.
Soon, the iron sheet in front of him looked exactly like the one he currently saw.
He was slightly startled and suddenly realized he had already co out of the Phantom Vision, and just happened to have his face close to the iron sheet…
“You’re so close…
do you recognize this script?” Old Mo asked.
Lin Yi shook his head: “I don’t recognize it.”
He didn’t ntion the vision of the blacksmithing gaunt figure; after all, that scene…
seed to be rely a scene.
Old Mo didn’t ask further, and started figuring out how to open the door.
anwhile, Lin Yi pondered, of all the Phantom Visions, this one felt least threatening, of course, and also had the least amount of information…
“This is really strange…”
Just at that mont, Old Mo slowly pushed open the door.
“Creeeek—”
Accompanied by a grating, ear-piercing scraping sound, this rusty, heavy iron door was slowly pushed open…
