"Teacher Karen?"

Wuyue looked at the dull Karen, and it was hard to imagine that she, now a holy assassin, would still be in a trance.

"......fine......"

Pulled back from his memories by Wu Yue, Karen said slowly.

"It's getting late, go to sleep, the assessment will officially start tomorrow."

After rubbing Wuyue's head, Karen stood up and walked out from the front door without disappearing suddenly.

"Yingyi..." Bai Ye murmured to himself as he looked at Karen's retreating back.

Judging from some of the memories that Bai Ye has mastered, most of the matters in the Order of Shadow are handled by Shadow One. Shadow himself almost never appears in front of the congregation, so Karen is considered the actual controller of the Order.

The memories of the living cannot be viewed in the white night. What happened to the Order of Shadows back then that eventually led to their destruction?

The voice from the outside is that "the disappearance of the Shadow Successor, coupled with the repeated purges by the nobles, finally made the Shadow Successor Order unable to survive on its own, and was eventually divided and disintegrated."

But at present, it seems that even if Shadow Si himself disappears, as long as the remaining members of the Ten Shadows who are the core of the cult are still there, especially Karen, who is the first shadow, it will not be so easy to be defeated in a short period of time. right.

Another mystery...

......

The next day, everyone gathered on the first floor of the hotel and listened to Karen explain the rules of this assessment.

"Everyone, from now on, you are not allowed to call each other by name, including me. Call me Yingyi, do you understand?"

"Yes! Teacher Yingyi."

"There is no 'teacher', just Yingyi."

Karen corrected.

"Zora, is everything ready?"

"Master Yingyi, everything is ready." Zora replied respectfully.

Although I don’t know what they are talking about, it must be something important.

"Good, now let's go find the mayor."

The way the Shadow Successor Order operates, although they often accept commissions from others, more often than not, people from the Order come to them on their own initiative to provide help to those in need.

It's weird, and it's troublesome.

Most importantly... don't take the beaten path...

......

Town of Thurton, Town Offices.

Mayor Griffin was sitting on a chair sipping the newly released black tea, when several figures appeared silently on the balcony outside the window.

"Thurton Mayor Griffin Cleveland, but you are calling the name of the shadow?"

The sudden voice behind him scared Griffin and spurted out a mouthful of black tea.

"Who?"

Griffin subconsciously turned his head, only to find that the figure on the balcony outside the window was gone. When he turned his head again, he saw eight people wearing cloaks and masks standing in front of him.

"You, you, you...who are you? I called someone!"

"I ask you again, Griffin Cleveland, but are you calling the name of the Shadow?"

The leader repeated the same words in almost the same tone.

"What...what is the name of Shadow? I don't know..."

The mayor was so frightened that he could not speak coherently.

The leader shook his hand and pulled out a piece of parchment with a strange symbol drawn on it.

"This... this is not..." Griffin now remembered the method he saw at a fortune-telling stall more than half a month ago, when miners were suffering from frequent deaths.

Combined with the stories he often heard from the older generation when he was a child, about a legendary religious order a hundred years ago, Griffin followed that method with the mentality of treating a dead horse as a living horse.

Use a piece of common parchment to draw a strange symbol on it, and then put it on the roof of your house at midnight. Someone will take it away. Then you just need to wait patiently, and the Son of Shadow will come to visit you. Solve problems for clients.

Griffin didn't think much about it and just regarded it as folklore. Besides, the Order of Shadows had been destroyed long ago. Could a dead person still help him?

"This is indeed what I drew...could it be said that you are..."

I didn’t expect that the story I heard since childhood was actually true?

"Griffin Cleveland, but you are calling the name of the shadow?"

Unexpectedly, even though Griffin admitted that it was his masterpiece, the leader still did not continue the conversation and repeated the sentence for the third time.

"I'm not...oh, look at my memory, I forgot about the second half."

Griffin slapped his forehead and continued: "...Night Mother...Night Mother, please...Shadow Bless her...heir?"

Okay, I barely got the code.

The leader didn't seem to have the patience to continue spending time on the sense of ceremony, and then said: "Why are you calling me?"

Griffin told the leader about the frequent murders and the monsters he saw.

"If you can really solve this matter for me, I promise to report it to the capital and give you enough rewards."

"The Order of Shadows never asks for anything in return. You only need to praise the Night Mother for her kindness. We will never see you again."

Before Griffin could say any polite words, the leader and everyone behind him all turned into smoke and disappeared without a trace.

......

"Ying Yi, do we need to do this? Um... go through the process?" Shadow Six (Lista) asked.

"Shadow Six, this is tradition, and it was also belief in the past. Of course you don't have belief in the Night Mother, so I have nothing to say."

"To be honest, although it is very ceremonial, there is really no need to go to such trouble..."

In Bai Ye's previous life, he followed a neat and straightforward approach and had little faith. He also scorned the practices of believers.

"Okay, the first step is completed. You all did a good job."

But apart from Ying Yi, the others didn’t do anything?

The same question was quickly raised by Ying San (Nair).

"Remaining silent behind the speaker is also a very important quality for a subordinate. Remember it."

Ying 1 glanced at Ying 3.

"The reason why Ying San is called 'Silent Shadow' by the world is because he has always been a person who talks less and does more, even until his death."

"I hope he can be a role model for you..."

After educating Ying 3, Ying 1 said: "The preliminary investigation work has been completed by Zora, we can just go straight to the opponent's lair."

"Yes!"

......

""Ying San, Master Ying Si has decided to order you to take charge of the underground affairs of Mel City. "

"Yes."

"The forces there are complicated, so you must be careful."

"Yes."

"Ying San, sometimes you don't have to suppress yourself. You can speak freely in meetings."

"Yes."

"..."

"Also... what happened last time was indeed Ying Er's fault. I apologize to you on her behalf."

"......yes......""
