Sean was worthy of the title of First Aid Master. It seemed that he was not only a blacksmith, but also a doctor.
Soon, he finished treating Ma Wen's ankle.
Although Ma Wen still had to walk with crutches, it was expected that he would recover in two or three days.
This result was already very good. Problems that hurt the tendons and bones would often have sequelae if not cured.
And in this respect, the powerful side of the Nightwalker organization was shown.
Although there were only eighteen people left, Sean, as the former leader, still had a lot of good things.
Including some magic scrolls and some secret medicines.
These medicines were very valuable, but he did not hesitate to use them on Ma Wen.
From these actions, it could be seen that he had already decided to take Marvin as his apprentice.
Yes, apprentice.
After completing the first test, Ma Wen learned from Sean that the process to become a Nightwalker was far more complicated than he knew.
At present, he was still in the apprentice period. Only after completing the one-year test could he officially become a Nightwalker!
A year's time was too long for Ma Wen!
This was not what he had expected at all!
If he had known that the apprenticeship period of a Nightwalker was one year, he would not have come in this direction no matter what.
But Sean seemed to see Ma Wen's anxiety, and spoke to comfort him.
After listening to Sean's explanation, Ma Wen was relieved.
So that was it.
… …
For the next two days, Ma Wen recuperated in the blacksmith's shop. During this period, he met the old blacksmith's daughter, Jane, who apologized to him very embarrassedly.
"So you really came to find my father, I thought …"
The girl said shyly.
"It doesn't matter. It's good for girls to be vigilant. By the way, your oatmeal is delicious. "
Ma Wen said with a smile.
Jane blushed and found an excuse to slip away. Ma Wen did not care. He was not here to pick up girls. It was good to learn Sean's skills.
But then again, the territory seems to lack a skilled seamstress, right?
…
Two days later, with the help of various secret medicines from the Nightwalkers, Ma Wen was completely healed.
He regained his health and became lively again.
When Sean saw this, he nodded at Ma Wen, signaling him to get ready.
Because the second round of the test was about to begin.
Late at night.
In the backyard of the blacksmith shop.
"I didn't expect there to be a basement here."
Ma Wen followed the old blacksmith Sean into the basement.
The tunnel was a spiral staircase with flickering candles on both sides. The atmosphere was eerie.
It was as if someone was singing an ancient ballad in a low voice from afar.
"The Nightwalkers are a secret organization. Not many people know of our existence," Old Sean answered stiffly.
"Including your daughter?" Ma Wen asked.
"Kid, if you dare to mention anything about the Nightwalker in front of Jane, believe me, although I've already lost most of my abilities, I can still pinch you to death several times." The old blacksmith snorted coldly.
Ma Wen shrugged and was not afraid of the old blacksmith's threat, "Jane is not a fool. On the contrary, she is very smart. You can't hide it from her. "
The old blacksmith was silent for a moment and shook his head, "I just don't want her to be involved in too much trouble."
"For a girl like her, it's good enough for her to live a peaceful life."
Ma Wen sighed and said, "It's difficult."
"Tell me the truth, boy, what did you see?" The old blacksmith could not help but ask, "Hathaway saw destruction. What about you?"
"A catastrophe." Ma Wen did not shy away, "No one can escape. If you want Jianan to live a peaceful life, I'm afraid Oak Town is not a good place to live. "
Sean looked at Marvin suspiciously, and finally said, "That's right.
"Here we are."
…
They did arrive.
At the end of the stairs was a small, narrow room.
In the corner of the room, there was a dark mural.
The content on the mural was very monotonous, only a pair of eyes, and below the eyes, there was a faint glow.
In the glow, there were countless skeletons, and the people on the skeletons were struggling and wailing.
Although it was only a very simple painting, it had a great impact on Ma Wen's vision!
"This is …"
"This is the scene of ancient people struggling in the Everlasting Night," Sean said solemnly. "The Night Lord came out of the darkness to protect the creatures of Fernand from the invasion of monsters and outsiders."
"Ancient times?" Ma Wen was stunned for a moment.
As for the Night Lord, he did not know much about him. There was very little information mentioned in the game, and it seemed that it would only be released in the next few expansion packs.
At least when Ma Wen crossed over, the true body of the Night Lord had not appeared.
At present, as far as Ma Wen knew, the history of Fernand's civilization was composed of almost four eras.
The first era, chaos era. Before the God of Sorcerer, Lance, came, Fernand's magic overflowed, and the power of Order and Chaos overlapped, giving birth to life.
During the chaos era, the day and night often reversed for a long time. For example, it was night for four or five years in a row.
That was the legendary Everlasting Night.
The Night Lord seemed to be a character who appeared in this era. Some people said that he was a demon from the abyss, and some said that he was one of the clones of the God of Sorcerer, Lance.
But in fact, the records about the Night Lord seemed to be earlier than the God of Sorcerer, Lance.
The chaos era ended after the God of Sorcerer, Lance, descended.
Lance created the Holy Grail and the Universal Magic Pool, making the whole world inclined to Order.
At this time, Fernand gave birth to the first natural god, which was the ancient god of the elves. His name was Wo. Wo was a member of the high elves of Fernand. He became the ancient god of the elves through some unknown means, and he had a very good relationship with Lance.
At that time, Lance seemed to be busy fighting some monsters from other dimensions who coveted Fernand. He temporarily handed Fernand to Wo.
Thus, the high elves rose and dominated everything. That was the glorious second era. Aside from the elves, everyone else was a lowly race.
The ancient god of the elves did not like this situation, so he left Fernand and helped Lance fend off the foreign enemies, then fell into a deep sleep.
Then came the departure of the high elves, and the third era began. It was also in this era that three Fate Tablets appeared in Fernand.
Those who obtained the tablet fragments all became gods.
Aside from some natural gods, which were the first ancient gods, most of the gods in the divine realm were formed in the third era by relying on the power of the Fate Tablets.
After that, the God of Sorcerer, Lance, returned to Fernand, established the Order of Sorcerers, and humans rose.
In the fourth era, the God of Sorcerer left again. This time, he seemed to have left for good.
The gods who rose to power in the third era began to become restless.
Because there was a prophecy that the fourth Fate Tablet was inside the Universal Magic Pool. Only by breaking it would it appear on Fernand.
Thus, the end of the fourth era, which was filled with bloodshed, slowly began.
…
These memories slowly passed through Ma Wen's mind.
The pair of deep eyes in front of him seemed to become more vivid.
"Let's go. I hope you can endure the one-year apprenticeship. "
"I can tell you clearly that the name of this level is patience!"
Sean pressed one of the eyes with one hand and motioned for Ma Wen to do the same.
Then he began to murmur a spell that Ma Wen could not understand at all.
This spell was very complicated, and it took a full three minutes.
Suddenly, Ma Wen only felt that his palm was hot, and a strong attraction came from the eyes!
His whole body was sucked into the mural!
…
It was pitch-black.
Ma Wen could see in the dark, but he could not see anything here!
This was the [Evernight Paradise]! The half plane that belonged to the Night Lord!
That's right, for the next year of apprenticeship, Ma Wen had to spend in this half plane!
The only good news was that the time in the Evernight Paradise was not the same as that in Fernand.
One year here was equivalent to one day in Fernand!
It was precisely because of this that Ma Wen decided to continue the advancement of the Night Walker. Otherwise, he would have to go back to the Three-Ring High Tower to solve the problem of the fight for the Holy Grail.
However, even so, this year was still very difficult to endure.
Because time was constantly passing for Ma Wen.
"What do I need to do?" Ma Wen asked.
Sean's voice came from afar. "You are my apprentice, of course you will do whatever I do."
"What do you do?" Ma Wen was a little confused.
Clang! Clang!
The crisp sound of metal came from afar.
"I am a blacksmith," Sean replied.
"Come on, young man. For the next year, you will be companions with the furnace and the hammer!"
