In the courtyard at night, a circular teleportation array shines in the center of the courtyard, a deep red carpet passes through it, and blue water mist rises, illuminating the faces of the three people in the dim darkness of the evening.

The lines are intertwined, outlining the mysterious magic array.

The mist overflowed from the edge of the formation, rising and spreading, and the white air sank like a fairyland, facing the silent young man facing it.

The tip of the silver-broken dragon tooth was covered in white air, flowing over his ankles, as if he were standing in the clouds. The moisture with mist was carried by the evening wind, blowing across his silent face with his eyes covered, night scene

Specially made top hem.

The soft words from Shui Linlang on the other side of the magic circle came.

‘Become the last night watchman at midnight’

On one side of the garden, Li Ze looked at Fang Ran not far away in silence, except that it was still difficult to accept this fact.

He listened to Shui Linlang's words and felt shocked in silence.

Compared to North America and Europe, Asia, which has the largest population base, has the largest number of participants active in the night battle world, and like the Zero Knights of the Nightless Palace and the executive officers of the association, Midnight also has the highest combat power that distinguishes all participants——

Night watchman.

And unlike the executive who believes in the supremacy of power, Night Palace must be approved by the queen to become a zero knight.

The night watchmen at midnight have always been the most special. Not only are their numbers fixed, but apart from the power they possess, the existence itself must be a person who has something in his heart before he can be given a name.

Under the same ranking, the highest combat power of the three major forces is often the most mysterious Night Watch, which is more feared by others.

Moreover, due to the low-key activities, the outside world still does not know how many night watchmen there are in the middle of the night.

As the youngest night watchman in Midnight, Li Ze knows better than anyone else.

How pure is this title?

"The last... night watchman...?"

In the mist, the taciturn young man recited in a low voice.

"Yes, yes. The last night watchman."

Shui Linlang nodded silently, then repeated his words, supported her cheek with her fair white wrist, and spoke softly:

"Become a night watchman, and the power of Midnight will pour all its resources into you."

"Provide a new platform and a new level to allow you to have something you have never had before. I believe Li Ze's experience is very clear."

Hearing Shui Linlang mention his name, Li Ze silently affirmed, and then slowly opened his mouth, telling the secret that the outside world had always puzzled.

"It was indeed after I became a Night Watchman that I gained the ability to improve my strength to A level in a short period of time."

Is it...

Become a night watchman...

Fangran stood quietly at the gate of the garden, looking at the large formation of water mist.

"This...is what you call 'growth'?"

The young man looked a little depressed and asked with a sigh, his eyelashes on his lowered eyes were a little wet with fog.

"Well, this is the growth I want you to decide."

There was also mist in front of Shui Lin's blue eyes. She stared at Fang Ran with soft doubts.

"As long as I become the Night Watchman?"

"As long as you become the Night's Watcher."

Her blue eyes stared at him, looking at the bright magic circle in the eyes of the three of them, and answered softly.

"Step into this magic circle and you will immediately appear in the Midnight Shrine. There will be at least six participants there who have abilities related to mana and human organs, although not to the extent that those two people gave you.

, but it can permanently free you from the burden on your heart and reach at least a C-level level."

Shui Linlang did not continue because she knew that the young man in front of her was actually very smart and could figure everything out.

This was all she wanted to say to Fang Ran tonight.

Get rid of the burden on your heart permanently.

Fangran's hand touching his chest tightened slightly, as if this would allow him to better feel the heartbeat in his chest.

It's as if he still has his heart intact.

Although Shui Linlang did not elaborate, Fangran knew that becoming a night watchman would definitely be a drastic change. Having been told by Su Qun that he was fighting in the world at night, he knew very well that Ziye, one of the three major forces, had the highest combat power.

, what the night watchman represents.

At that time, he curiously asked Su Qun how powerful and mysterious those Zero Riders, Executive Officers, and Night Watchmen were.

But he didn't expect that he could become one of them now, as long as he stepped into the magic circle in front of him...

And not only that, he can also completely get rid of the burden on [Chuangpai]'s heart.

The energy value standard for level C is 6000-8000.

C level upper level, which means his mana value is close to 8000.

What's important is that having an 'infinite' self, with no limitations, no side effects, and 8,000 mana points that are completely controlled by oneself means far more than a C-level superior can simply express.

And Fangran can be sure that Shui Linlang is definitely not lying.

Because she has already told so many things about herself to make herself believe her 'next words'.

"Fangran, I'm not forcing you, nor am I threatening, but I really hope you accept this proposal."

Shui Linlang didn't have her smile on her face, but stared deeply at Fang Ran, speaking softly as if with some hope and expectation.

"Infinite, it is really more important to the night battle world than you think."

After hearing these words, Fangran suddenly spoke. He was silent for a moment, and it seemed like he had been silent for a long time.

"I've actually been curious."

The young man's voice was soft and calm. He exhaled gently and blew away the mist. He finally understood.

Then, for the first time, he raised his head slightly, his eyes bright in the night.

Only then did Shui Linlang realize that the eyes of the young man in front of her were so bright and clear.

"Why do you want to help me like this? You have been silently and secretly helping me solve external interference and intervening in various external factors that may threaten me. The person I killed in Midnight in that scene must have been suppressed by you afterwards.

Come down."

Speaking of this, Fangran glanced at the water mist magic circle shining in front of him. The spreading mist was like the entrance to a fairyland. He chuckled, then took a deep breath, and moved his eyes away to look out the window at the night.

The sea of ​​flowers gradually falling asleep in the sea, calmly said:

"And this proposal, in order for me to reach that point, the six participants must at least sacrifice their freedom to use their abilities all the time, and they cannot be ordinary participants. Ordinary participants can do this

Will it increase my mana level or maintain my heart?"

He laughed out of nowhere, then exhaled, seemingly suppressing the shock and emotion in his heart, and said affirmatively:

"It can't be done. It must be at least B-level, and maybe even A-level will be involved."

Li Ze was silent on the side, and Shui Linlang looked at him silently without interrupting his words.

In fact, indeed, there was an A-level night watchman among those people.

"I don't believe that for no reason, a big man who has fought three major forces at night and lived for a century would bother so much for me. Moreover, I can't see any malicious conspiracy in you."

The young man standing there smiled calmly and softly, with clear eyes, and turned to look at Shui Linlang.

Faced with this situation, has he still considered these things...

Seemingly understanding the reason why he had been silent before, Shui Linlang had to admit again that this young man was more careful and smarter than she thought.

From the moment he walked in and was exposed by himself, he showed a completely different calmness and delicate mind compared to the way outsiders saw him.

"If this is a reward for me saving your granddaughter, it doesn't seem to be the case, so I've always been curious."

"Why are you helping me?"

Fangran smiled, then fell silent for a moment, shook his head and said:

"But after hearing what you just said, I suddenly understood."

Shui Lin's blue eyes froze for a second, and then she looked deeply at the young man opposite the mist formation.

"As a person with the ability to predict who has lived for a century, you are really great. Although you can't guess the specific reason, you spared no effort to help me and even made the decision to let me become the night watchman at midnight."

Fangran's eyes flashed across the Linfu neighborhood that night...no, the majestic giant shadow in the center of the disaster-despaired city. He found the answer from Shui Linlang's last words.

"Sure enough, it's for the sake of fighting the world at night...or to put it more bluntly, for the overall purpose of saving the world?"

That night, facing the A-62 with the power to destroy heaven and earth, Fangran realized for the first time the horror of being on the enemy's side and a numbered monster, and for the first time he got to know...

Dark world.

Shui Linlang was silent. This was the longest she had been silent tonight.

After a long time, she looked deeply at Fang Ran, looked down at the mist formation and whispered:

"Well, yes, I do think so. At least in this era, since you exist, I hope things can change."
To be continued...
