This search and rescue operation, Huazhenxing, did not alarm Yang Tehong. For the sake of the two missing students who entered the wilderness without authorization, the array he had set up was large enough, so there was no need to disturb him anymore.

If Old Man Yang is willing to take the initiative to ask about something, Huazhenxing will fully respect the wishes of his family; if Old Man Yang’s family does not want to meddle in their own business, Huazhenxing will not disturb them. His attitude towards the three old people is the same.

In the past six months, Old Man Yang has been opening a canteen at the entrance of the living area. Hua Zhenxing is now much more knowledgeable than before, and he understands some of the mysteries of how masters walk in the world, but he can't tell whether the Old Man Yang in the canteen is his true form or an incarnation.

.

Since he is an old man who runs a small shop, this matter has nothing to do with him. Hua Zhenxing was also surprised when he suddenly received a system task at this moment. This should be Old Man Yang's reminder to him.

Old man Yang, who doesn't like to meddle in other people's business, suddenly meddles in his own business. It seems that this matter is quite serious. However, the "mission" asked him to find out the dark creatures, but it touched the blind spot of Hua Zhenxing's knowledge. What are dark creatures and the relationship between the two students?

What does it matter if you disappear?

If Old Man Yang wanted to explain, he was told in the system task. The reason for not explaining in detail was obviously to let him verify it himself. Fortunately, Huazhenxing has many friends, and many of them are senior people. If you don't know, just ask the teacher.

He took out a phone and adjusted some settings. First he called Ding Qi. Teacher Ding answered quickly, with a bit of surprise in his voice: "Xiaohua, what happened, are you looking for me at three o'clock in the middle of the night?"

Hua Zhenxing quickly explained: "Sorry, I didn't pay attention to the time difference! Actually, there is nothing else. I just want to ask you, what are dark creatures?"

Ding Qi: "Dark creatures? I'm really not familiar with this, and I don't know what it is. I've just heard of the term. You can ask Master Bai, he should know much better than me.

I have only heard that there is an organization of Temple Knights in Cambystine, whose duty is to destroy dark creatures. You have been cooperating with Cambystine for such a long time, and you don’t know about it?”

After hanging up the phone, Hua Zhenxing remembered that there is a special type of existence among the magicians, known as black magicians. Because they have studied black magic and fallen into darkness, they have always been the targets of Gumbisteen's pursuit.

Six years ago, Hua Zhenxing captured a great magician named Ralpha in Wage Mining. This man was the black magician wanted by Gambistine.

Hua Zhenxing also asked for advice on the concept of evil spirits. Old Man Yang said that the remaining life is a devil, and Uncle Mo said that bringing harm to the world is a devil.

Gambistine has a detailed definition of "black magic". The most typical one is that when obtaining magical power, it must not cause harm to innocent people or even take away their lives. Such power comes from the devil.

This is basically consistent with Old Man Yang's definition of "evil magic". For example, Hua Zhenxing practices the art of cultivating energy, but he cannot absorb the vitality of others to practice. If it is such a secret method, it will be regarded as an evil art.

Not only do magicians have to swear not to study black magic, but if they find someone using black magic to do evil, they are also obliged to stop it in time. If they cannot stop it, they must report it to Gambistine immediately. These are also written in the code of magicians.

From a translation perspective, whether it is Adin, ancient Hebrew, or modern English used in Gambistine, black magic can be translated as "dark magic" in Eastern Mandarin, and black magician can also be translated as "dark magic."

division".

Could it be that dark creatures refer to black magicians, or creatures that practice dark magic? Teacher Ding suggested that he ask Bai Shaoliu. Hua Zhenxing was very curious about knowledge. He looked at the time and dialed the phone, but what he found was

About Gaule.

Yue Gaole answered the phone in time, and was surprised when he heard this and asked: "Xiaohua, Director Hua, your Yangyuan Valley has more than one complete lineage of magical inheritance, but you don't know what a dark creature is?"

Hua Zhenxing: "If I don't know, I just don't know, and no one has told me. Locke, Lian Na has never mentioned it, and you have never mentioned it to me. I just learned that there are temple knights in Gambistine,

Specialized in destroying dark creatures."

Yo Gao Le: "You haven't even heard of the Temple Knights, right?"

Hua Zhenxing said an Adin word, and then asked: "If this is the Temple Knight, then I have heard of it. The ancestor of the Fulgan family, the great magician who left the book of inheritance, claimed to have been

He is a Temple Knight.

But I don’t know what the Knights of the Temple do, I thought it was just an honorary title.”

Yue Gaole: "The responsibility of the Temple Knights is not to have friendly exchanges with others, but to deal with people. We are partners. You have never dealt with the Temple Knights. It is normal.

It is indeed an honorary title, but it is not easy to get this title. You need to take an oath and pass a test. Your cultivation level is at least equivalent to that of a great magician, and it is the kind of great magician who can best fight.

The book of inheritance left by Locke’s ancestor does not contain the inheritance of the fighting skills of the Temple Knights, which he cannot pass on without permission, even to the descendants of the family.”

Hua Zhenxing: "Mr. Yue, I just want to ask you what a dark creature is. Is it a black magician? Or does it generally refer to creatures that practice black magic?"

Jorge Le: "Magicians are also human beings, and humans are also living things. Of course, they can also degenerate into dark creatures. The practice of black magic is strictly prohibited in Gambistein, because black magicians are as hateful as dark creatures.

However, there is a strict definition of true dark creatures. There is a group of people in Gambiste, including myself, who have always advocated not expanding the concept of dark creatures.

All kinds of sinful desires will flash in people's hearts, but it cannot be said that they belong to darkness.

But there is a different situation. Sinful desires have taken over the soul and become the master of consciousness. The motivations for their actions all follow a certain sinful logic.

People will make mistakes and commit crimes, but normal people do not exist just for a certain sin or for a certain sin.

But that kind of person is not the same creature as ordinary people, normal people, or you and me. They have fallen into a dark world, and their ways of existence and behavioral logic are different... Do you understand?"

Hua Zhenxing: "I kind of understand the meaning, but I don't quite understand it yet. Can you give me a specific example?"

Yue Gaole: "You've always heard of the vampires, right? They are the most typical and representative dark creatures."

Hua Zhenxing: "Vampires, do they really exist in reality?"

Yue Gao Le: "You have a friend who founded the Ten Thousand Changes Sect and taught a bunch of monsters how to practice. I have a friend who also carries a gourd with him and uses it to smuggle people into the world. So many weird and weird things exist, why can't you do it?

Are there vampires?

It’s impossible that you haven’t heard of the Vampires. There have been so many movies made, and some of them may have been funded by them themselves. The Vampires in the movies are different from the real Vampires, but they also reflect a lot of reality..."

In various legends and stories, the Vampires believe in eternal life in the darkness, use the ritual of first embrace to convey the secret of eternal life, betray the light forever, and embrace the people they love most into the darkness together.

Legend has it that it is blood that keeps them young forever. This is actually a misunderstanding. They do not live forever because of blood-sucking. There is a hymn circulated among the vampires, which goes as follows:

All life will die, and everyone will accept the final judgment. Why not give me your life, the blood will flow into my throat, and life will continue in my body. I will replace you until eternal life.

According to Yue Gaole, blood-sucking is just a ritual for casting spells. There are two types of rituals. One is to pass on the secret of eternal life to the next generation of vampires, and the other is to extend the life force of the killed person into one's own life force.

Vampires kill people in order to keep their vitality alive forever. They tend not to suck the blood of the weak, but like to kill those with the strongest vitality.

Depriving others of their lives to extend their own youth, it is said that the vampires are cursed and can only move in the dark night. This is actually a misunderstanding, implying that their identity cannot be seen in the light.

Hua Zhenxing: "You can only hide in darkness, what does that mean?"

Yue Gaole: "Otherwise, what do you think? They look just like ordinary people most of the time, but the reason why vampires are called vampires is that they are indeed another kind of creature, obeying their biological instincts and behavioral logic.

They have special constitutions, and most of them have abnormal psychology. They do hate the sun, and they usually don't like to be seen too clearly, but that doesn't mean they can't tolerate the sun and can't appear in broad daylight.

It's just that those newbies who have just become vampires do need a period of silence in the dark, in order to complete the physical transformation in the process of accepting inheritance.

Maybe because they all have such experiences, after they officially become vampires, they often feel psychologically averse to sunlight, which affects their physiology and makes them feel uncomfortable."

Hua Zhenxing: "Thank you, you helped me answer a lot of questions... So how do you identify vampires?"

Yue Gao Le: "As long as you meet them, you will naturally be able to distinguish them, and you can distinguish them in your own way. In fact, for the vampires, the person who can distinguish them better is the Yangyuan Master.

Those white-board monks you trained in Yangyuan Valley are like lights in the dark when walking among the crowd, and like the best steaks prepared by top chefs, they will make them drool uncontrollably... Do you understand what I mean?

?”

Hua Zhenxing: "Will the Yangyuan Master become the prey of the vampire clan?"

Yue Gao Le: "Not only the Yang Yuan Master, in theory anyone can become the food of the Vampire Clan. But the Vampire Clan casts spells to absorb the vitality of others, and there is a price. Ordinary people whose vitality is not strong enough can not even make up for the consumption.

The theoretical best prey for vampires is of course monks. The higher the level of cultivation, the more delicious the food is, but that also means the more dangerous it is, because hunting monks is too risky!"

Hua Zhenxing: "I understand, thank you sincerely!"

Yue Gao Le: "Don't hang up the phone in a hurry. Have you encountered dark creatures or do you want to study dark creatures? I suggest you avoid black magic. It's too easy to make mistakes! If you encounter dark creatures, you need to

Help?"

Hua Zhenxing: "I am just investigating the disappearance of two classmates. I suspect it is related to dark creatures, but I have not found any specific clues yet. Don't bother Mr. Laoyue yet. If I am really unsure and need help, I will ask!"

Yue Gaole smiled: "Dark creatures cannot see the light of day. They cannot openly confront you in Yangyuan Valley. They can only use covert methods. You have to be careful. That's all. I want to tell you another thing. Why is there no one?

Mentioned the Temple Knights to you?

Because there have been no traces of dark creatures in the Luoba Alliance for a long time, and this matter is related to Bai Shaoliu. You also know Ge Lin, Helen Ge Lin. Last time, Gambistin sent her as the plenipotentiary representative.

Discussing with you the affairs of Meng En Garden..."

Yue Gaole told a story about the past. When he was about seven or eight years old in Hua Zhenxing, a civil strife broke out in Gambistine. As a result, the "dark faction" represented by the chief magician Fordimo was completely purged.

.

Fordimo himself is of course not a dark creature, nor can he even be considered a black magician. Although he has also studied black magic, he has studied and mastered many magical arts, and the so-called various black magics are only a small part of them.

.

He and his disciples secretly cultivated a group of black magicians. They cannot be said to have colluded with each other. There are several dark forces lurking in the world that they secretly cultivated to do all kinds of shady work.

The opportunity that triggered this civil strife was that Fordmo accused Helen and his daughter of colluding with dark forces, imprisoned them and prepared for public execution. Bai Shaoliu led people to stage a good show of robbing the execution ground and robbed the people.

.

Bai Shaoliu took Helen and his daughter and fled to the Green family's castle. He was also assisted by Dan Zicheng and other Kunlun monks. Fordimo led a team of priests to attack in large numbers. At the critical moment, someone blew a horn.

.

This horn can actually summon dark creatures. Dark creatures on the Luoba continent come from all over the world and flood into the castle like a tide. These dark creatures cannot distinguish between the camps inside and outside the castle, and will only engulf both the offensive and defensive sides.

At that time, few people knew that Fordimo was the mastermind behind the dark forces. Most of the priests who came with Fordimo were not black magicians. They were just Fordimo's subordinates. They still regarded dark creatures as the most hated creatures in the world.

sin.

Then the situation was reversed. The magicians who were attacking the castle relied on the castle and started a fierce fight with the dark creatures that came from Bu Tuan. This battle almost destroyed the elite power of Fordimo...

…

The purpose of asking Gao Le to tell this past story was to tell Hua Zhenxing why he had been cooperating with Gambistine for so long and had never dealt with the Temple Knights or heard anyone mention dark creatures.

Because almost all of the most powerful dark creatures on the Loba continent were wiped out in the castle war that year. The dark creatures that did not arrive on the battlefield in time were also eliminated by Gambistine afterwards because their nests were exposed.

There may still be remnants of dark creatures on the Luoba continent, but they must be quite rare, and they dare not be exposed at all. They have disappeared for many years, and few people mention them again.
To be continued...
