Restarting the myth.

Chapter 79 There are still masters
Time goes back to the late night.

A black car stopped in front of a villa. The man in charge of keeping watch entered the villa and met his teacher Joey Dobbin.

"Why are you back alone? Where are they?"

"They have been in there for a long time and haven't come back. The address is... I'm afraid things may have changed, so I'm coming back to report to you first."

"You're not being followed, are you?"

"No, I walked around for several blocks to make sure there was no one behind me and no owl following me."

"That's good. You should go out of town and hide for a few days. Don't contact me without my order."

The black car drove away and headed directly out of the city of Lundang.

Joey waited at home for several hours until daybreak, and when he confirmed that his three students would not return, he picked up the phone and made the call.

"Teacher, the plan failed and we didn't catch him."

"Why did it fail? How did you do it?"

On the other side of the phone, Sidney scolded, "How many times have I told you not to underestimate the enemy just because he is an apprentice? Magicians are not invincible. Guns and bullets can take our lives at any time."

"Teacher, you misunderstood. I did not underestimate the enemy. On the contrary, I sent out four of my best students..."

Seeing Sidney was angry, Joey hurriedly explained: "Only one of the four students who was out for a walk has returned. There has been no news of the remaining three all night. The target is just a magician's apprentice. He has no ability to resist. I suspect someone is helping him."

"Tell me, where did your student disappear?"

"The address is 13 Long Street, Manor, West End."

"The people living there are not ordinary people. Why didn't you tell me before you took action?" Sidney said unhappily.

"Teacher, I just found out..."

"Okay, you go out of town and hide for a few days. Don't contact me without my order."

"I'm so sorry to disappoint you."

Joey waited respectfully for Sidney to hang up the phone first, then packed his luggage, took a few changes of clothes, and prepared to return to his hometown in the countryside to hide for a few days.

The vehicle drove out of the city of London and was stopped by two police cars. Joey was confused as to what was going on when the police officers gave him a pair of silver bracelets.

"Damn it! Do you know who I am? How dare you do this!"

Joey was furious. After all, he was a silver wizard. He didn't really think he could be manipulated at will.

"Joey Dobbin, we know you are a disciple of the Church of Nature, and we also know you are a magician. You have the right to remain silent. Believe me, if you dare to resist, the next batch of captors will not be as easy to deal with as we are."

Joey was silent. Obviously, the police officer who arrested him was not an ordinary person.

He had no idea what had happened, and even suspected that Sidney had betrayed him, and the teacher had thrown him out as a scapegoat in order to protect himself.

----

"waste!"

On the other side, Sidney hung up the phone and sentenced his student to career death.

If he can't even do the smallest thing, how can you serve him in the future? It's better not to have such an incompetent student.

The bad thing is that Joey is already one of his most reliable students, and the rest are even worse and more evenly rotten.

Sidney was unaware that his student had been targeted, so he called an old friend and inquired about the address "13 Long Street, West Manor" to find out the background of the owner.

The result was not very good, the big house belonged to the Landau family.

boom!
Sidney slammed the table and stood up, his face gloomy and terrible. The Landau family is one of the fourteen tulip families in the Kingdom of Windsor and one of the knights' swords most relied on by the royal family.

Others may not know, but he knows that the fourteen Tulip Families have established a famous organization in Windsor - the Free Mage Alliance.

The Free Wizards Union influences the entire wizarding world of Windsor. It seems low-key and any church can get involved, but in fact it is very covert and what floats on the surface is just the tip of the iceberg.

His men rushed into the Landau family to rob people, and the consequences can be imagined.

Austin Landau: Your Majesty, Sidney dared to break into my house to rob people today, and he will dare to break into the palace to rob you tomorrow. He deserves death, and I would rather kill him than let him go!
It's not just the Landau family that is scary, but also the mistress of the Landau family, Heaphy Landau, who is the current high priest of the Windsor division.

Sidney knew very well that he was regarded as a thorn in the side by Heath, who wanted to uproot his influence in London, but he gave up for the time being because of his limited strength.

He has been staying at home these days so as not to give the other party any handle to hold against him.

I never expected that just by catching a magician's apprentice, I would actually hand the evidence to the other party.

Who is this magician's apprentice and why are he so wild? Is his name Wayne Landau?
Sidney was furious. All his efforts of forbearance for many days were in vain. Tracing back to the source, he realized that it was all the fault of the Lord of the Void. If the other party had not done it again and again for the last time, he would not have fallen into such a passive situation.

Sidney quickly walked to the study, pushed open the secret door and entered the black void. His thoughts and will rushed and he slammed into the golden statue.

Wake up, old man, don't sleep any more.

A wisp of thought and will emanated from the golden statue, and the voice of the Lord of the Void emanated: "Sidney, my beloved disciple, have you brought the person here?"

"Who is it, the magician's apprentice named Wayne?!"

Sidney gritted his teeth and said, "Do you know how much trouble you have caused me? He is an ordinary person, but he has someone behind him. I am likely to be targeted because of this incident."

"Who can make a golden wizard lose his composure like this? My student, you underestimate yourself."

The Lord of the Void didn't care: "You are bound by false power and honor. Only when you break free of these shackles can you see your complete self. This may be an opportunity for you to ascend to the path of legend..."

"Shut up and don't talk nonsense in front of me. You are crazy, but I am not."

Sidney said angrily: "I can't help you, go find someone else and don't come to me again."

"Haha, my student, it seems that you are really angry. Tell me, who is behind Wayne? What kind of protection did he find?"

"The Tulip Family!"

"tulip……"

The Lord of the Void muttered to himself for a long time, and then said, "What a familiar name. I seem to have heard it somewhere."

Sidney was almost angry to death. He knew that this old madman was unreliable. The legendary wizard who became famous in Windsor had forgotten the Tulip Family, so why couldn't he forget him as his student?

What is it that is worth your constant obsession? Can't you change it?

"Forget it. A name that cannot remain in my memory must not be worth remembering."

The Lord of the Void changed the subject and said coldly: "Sydney, bring Wayne to see me, immediately, now, I don't want to wait any longer."

"Marshall, is this your attitude when asking others to do something for you?!" Sidney also spoke in a cold tone.

"This is an order!"

The statue glowed with light, projecting the will of the Lord of the Void.

A little bit of white flesh foam was born out of thin air, connecting dots with lines, and lines with surfaces. The dark void became a breeding ground for white foam. Tentacles and veins were everywhere, and the white translucent skin secreted mucus. The inside was crisscrossed with veins flowing like blood vessels. Every piece of disgusting rotten meat was filled with an extremely evil vitality.

The dark void was filled with white flesh foam, surrounding Sidney from all directions, blocking the exit in a very short time and blocking Sidney's retreat.

Sidney's eyes were fierce, but he didn't make any movement. The golden triangle pattern spread out under his feet, and the life barrier rose from the ground, blocking the incoming white foam tentacles and protecting his own thinking from being eroded.

"Sidney, my best student..." xN
The white foam tentacles clung to the life barrier, twisting and squirming, opening a huge mouth that looked like the abyss. Every time it opened and closed, the sharp teeth on the inner wall of the mouth would flash cold light, rubbing against the life barrier and making a squeaking sound.

Dozens of voices rang out one after another, and the biting cold wind from the far north blew across the land, pulling at Sidney's thoughts and disrupting his rationality.

Sidney's eyes were dark and his face looked extremely ugly. If it was just the truth that came from the void, he could barely block it with the help of his life barrier. As long as he did not step into the door of truth, the Lord of the Void would never be able to shake his thinking and beliefs.

Sidney used to think so, but now he realizes that the Lord of the Void had already done something to him, maybe before he went crazy, or maybe during those transactions.

In short, his mind is controlled by the Lord of the Void, who can drag his mind into the void universe at any time, or freeze and wither his mind.

"Damn it, what have you done to me?"

"Guide you to learn the true magic of life, my student. This is what a teacher should do."

The mouth of the abyss was sometimes closed and sometimes opened, and continuous noises penetrated into Sidney's ears, making him feel hopeless and shed tears of regret.

If he were given another chance, he would never do business with the old madman.

"Look at your tears of joy, my student. Hurry and bring Wayne to me, otherwise..."

Sydney had an illusion. A white tentacle penetrated the life barrier and brushed across his face, stirring up tears. "You love vanity, you desire worldly power, and you don't want to lose it all, right?"

At the end of his words, the dark world in front of Sidney opened a huge white mouth. Its white teeth were as big as mountains and it emitted a suffocating stench. It swallowed him in one gulp.

!

Sidney woke up suddenly, opened his eyes and found himself standing in a black void.

There was no horrifying white flesh flakes, no life barrier that was constantly being gnawed at, nothing at all, even the golden statue had disappeared.

"A hallucination?"

Looking at the empty black void, Sidney felt a chill all over his body. He quickly returned to the study and personally wiped out the secret room constructed by his mind.

The Lord of the Void seemed to have left, but Sidney could still hear his whispers in his ears, telling him to go find Wayne and present him to the teacher immediately and now.

Sidney shook his head to dispel the sound, then picked up the mirror on the desk and looked at his pale face.

Deep in the pupils, it seemed as if something was wriggling and was about to drill out of the eyes.

Sidney threw the mirror away suddenly, his whole body soaked with cold sweat. He stood up and went to the mental hospital for psychological counseling.

The moment he stood up, he froze in place. If he went over now, with the dean's brutal treatment methods, the Lord of the Void might be fine, but he would definitely be killed.

"I can't go to the mental hospital, and I can't let anyone know..."

Sidney screamed, opened the drawer, and rummaged through it frantically until he put a pair of sunglasses on his face and finally calmed down.

He trembled and opened the cap of the red wine bottle, took a big gulp, and the red wine flowed down his beard. He uttered a hoarse voice like a curse: "Wayne, don't blame me, I still have a long way to go, and the church needs me. You are different, you are being targeted by the old madman, even if I am not there, there will be other magicians to find you..."

----

Time comes to night.

Xifei left the big house at noon. His physique was incredibly strong. He had not slept for several days and nights. He fell asleep for four hours and returned to the office full of energy to work.

After waking up, Sphy showed Wayne her gluttonous eating habits that were no less than Isabella's, the difference was that Sphy would never gain weight no matter how much she ate.

Wayne finally understood why others could work in the office while he could only sleep in the basement.

Also, it’s not the teacher’s husband’s fault that he is incompetent. When faced with such a physical monster, no matter how beautiful the vows are, they won’t last long.

Before leaving, Sifty assured Wayne that she had placed a barrier around the house and no one would disturb Wayne tonight.

If so, she asked Wayne to go into the sewer immediately and run as far as he could.

Seeing Healy leaving angrily, Wayne could guess what would happen to Joey Dobbin. Are you stupid? I have long legs to hug, but you dare to catch your boss's student. You're in trouble today.

Wayne didn't understand why he offended Joey. It was the first time he heard this name. After thinking about it, he could only conclude that Xifei was exposed, and naturally the political struggle within the church implicated him.

The specific situation still needs to wait for the teacher's investigation results. Wayne was happy to have some peace and quiet, lying in the air-raid shelter and watching his fellow villagers with tears in their eyes.

Around midnight, Wayne suddenly noticed something strange, and his supernatural senses frantically warned him that a source of danger was approaching at a very fast speed.

It's right at the basement door.

Thinking of Sphynx's warning, Wayne groaned bitterly. It turned out that in the wizarding world, the trend of beating the younger to take on the older was also popular. He threw down his books and ran straight towards the sewer.

This time he did not wait. He plunged into the sewer and ran for seven or eight kilometers without looking back. The warning from his supernatural sense was intermittent. Whenever he stopped, the warning would sound, and whenever he started running, the warning would stop.

After another ten kilometers, Wayne couldn't bear it anymore. Even though he was lost, he couldn't get rid of the pursuer. It was obvious that the other party knew his whereabouts very well.

No more running.

Open up!
I can’t run away, so I have to draw my sword!
"Aren't you going to run away?"

Footsteps came from the corner of the sewer. Sidney looked at Wayne and said calmly, "I have to say that you have done a great job in evading capture so many times. At least your intuition is very accurate. Unfortunately, you are too weak. This is your biggest mistake."

"who are you?"

Wayne was no nonsense. He looked like a villain at first glance, wearing sunglasses in the sewer late at night.

Taking advantage of the gap in conversation, he raised his hand and fired a shot from a distance of more than ten meters.

boom!
The bullet hit Sidney's chest... and was blocked by the flickering life barrier. He raised his hand to catch the hot bullet: "It doesn't matter who I am. The key is to find your man. He calls himself the Lord of the Void and asked me to take you to meet him."

Wayne's heart skipped a beat as the transport captain showed up.

"The gun in your hand is useless to me. Just give up resistance and don't make things difficult for me."

"..."

Wayne didn't say anything. Yes, the gun in his hand might not be able to do anything to the opponent, but the sword under his crotch might be the same.

Wayne narrowed his eyes and was about to transform into a Undead Knight on the spot.

Just then, a voice full of regret came from behind him.

"Sidney, you've finally come to this point."

There are experts too!

Wayne turned around and saw that the person coming was an unkempt old man with a white beard, looking sloppy and greasy.

Especially the white beard, it's all covered with patina.
