Dark Wizard: Rise! My undead army!

Seeing that Lynn was about to leave, the foolish Mary naturally followed Lynn closely.

The two had barely walked a short distance from the city lord's mansion when members of the Blood Hand Gang, who had been lying in ambush nearby, rushed up and surrounded them.

"Abacus Snake, boss, you're coming back!"

The leader grinned maliciously.

Lynn sneered and did not resist, letting them "escort" him and Mary back to the gang's headquarters.

He wanted to see how the one-eyed wolf would deal with him.

...

At this moment, the compound is brightly lit with torches.

Under One-Eyed Wolf's orders, all the gang members gathered in the courtyard, ready to watch their leader enforce the gang rules.

Vasa's bald head gleamed in the firelight, and beads of sweat dripped from his forehead, but he didn't bother to wipe them away.

In fact, he played a part in Lynn's escape...

One-Eyed Wolf sat arrogantly in a chair, with the skinny monkey, who was beaten black and blue and on the verge of death, under his feet.

Seeing Lynn brought back, a sinister smile spread across his face: "Lynn, my 'Abacus Snake,' what's wrong? Got your wings? Want to fly?"

Lynn watched him with great interest, finding him rather cute when he was angry.

Hmm...so cute and silly!

One-Eyed Wolf stroked his chin, feeling somewhat uncomfortable under Lynn's inexplicable gaze.

Even though it was already in his hands, it felt as if he had surrounded him.

This kid is so confident, could it be... he passed the test?

The thought startled him.

If that's the case, not only can I not lay a hand on him, but I also have to find a way to serve this man well.

First, find out if this kid passed the test!

Thinking of this, the one-eyed wolf immediately withdrew the fierce look from his face and forced a fake smile.

"Lin Enna, it's not that I don't want you to participate in the test, so why go through all this trouble? You're still young and haven't seen the dangers of this world."

"Becoming a wizard's apprentice may offer a meteoric rise, but the path ahead is fraught with peril..."

"What's wrong with staying in our little gang? Let's join forces and make it bigger and bigger. Then we'll be the ones calling the shots. That's much better than you being some kind of wizard apprentice!"

One-Eyed Wolf spoke with such sincerity that he seemed to genuinely regard Lynn as his successor.

This sudden change left the menacing gang members standing nearby somewhat dumbfounded.

The group looked at each other, somewhat bewildered.

What does this mean, boss?

Why are you suddenly trying to sell things?

Aren't we supposed to be enforcing the gang rules?

Could it be the succession ceremony for the vice leader?

Should we smile too?

...

Lynn remained noncommittal, simply watching the one-eyed wolf ramble on with a smile.

After talking for a while, seeing that Lynn wasn't responding, the one-eyed wolf's smile faded, and he simply asked directly:

"By the way, how did the test go? If you passed, let me know, the rest of us are all here to celebrate!"

Upon hearing this, Lynn's smile vanished instantly, and he shook his head and sighed:

"Becoming a wizard isn't that easy; I didn't pass the test..."

Upon hearing this, the one-eyed wolf's face instantly darkened, and he gritted his teeth, saying:

"Damn it, what the hell are you pretending to be, acting all high and mighty?!"

"Every gang has its rules! Traitors will have a leg broken! So you'll always remember who your master is!"

Good grief, so you're not even going to act anymore?

If I'm lying, won't you explode?

Before Lynn could finish his rant, One-Eyed Wolf shouted, "Yellow Fang, execute the order!"

"Okay, boss!"

Yellow Teeth licked his lips excitedly, picked up a heavy iron rod, and walked slowly toward Lynn with a perverse excitement on his face.

He wanted to see despair rise on Lynn's face.

Unfortunately, it backfired.

Lynn did not despair; instead, as the large, yellow teeth rapidly approached, she showed a look of disgust.

The excitement on Huang Ya's face froze completely...

Seriously, they dare to launch a massive sarcastic attack right when they're about to vomit?

Kid, you're pretty brave!

The iron rod whistled through the air and slammed down hard on Lynn's leg!

Kneel down, you bedbug!

Mary, standing beside him, screamed with her eyes closed in fright, gripping Lynn's arm tightly with both hands, making Lynn's head buzz.

Just as the iron rod was about to strike Lynn's leg, something unexpected happened!

A cloud of pitch-black mist appeared out of nowhere, instantly wrapping around Yellow Teeth's arm and quickly spreading throughout his body!

"ah--!!!"

A piercing scream erupted from Huang Ya's mouth; the pain that penetrated to the bone made him feel like he was living a life worse than death.

Under the horrified gaze of everyone, Huangya's flesh rapidly corroded and peeled away, his skin became withered and gray, his eyeballs bulged out, and then he turned to ashes...

In just a few breaths, a living person turned into a pale skeleton!

Only his signature yellow teeth remained stubbornly on his jawbone, making him look particularly eerie.

The skeleton shook its head, its jaw clicking, and a ghastly green soul fire burned in its empty eye sockets as it "looked" at the one-eyed wolf.

Lynn looked at those big yellow teeth and couldn't help but mutter under his breath, "Tsk, even negative energy couldn't clean your yellow teeth..."

This eerie and terrifying scene instantly silenced the entire courtyard!

All the gang members were terrified, their hands and feet turning ice-cold.

They had never seen anything like it.

The one-eyed wolf's sinister smile froze completely, instantly turning into boundless fear. He let out a strange cry and turned to run away without hesitation!

It's a wizard!

Lynn brought a wizard with her!

"Since you're here, why don't you all stay?"

A detached voice rang out in the air.

More black mist surged out from the shadows, like a wave of death, instantly engulfing the entire courtyard!

One-Eyed Wolf tried to use his speed to escape the black mist and leave the courtyard, but Yellow Teeth pounced on him and grabbed One-Eyed Wolf's legs tightly with both arms.

That big, yellow tooth gnawed hard on his fat buttocks, biting off a large chunk of flesh.

"Ugh—"

Amidst the one-eyed wolf's screams, the black mist completely engulfed it.

Screams, the sound of bones grinding, and the sound of flesh melting rose and fell, but soon fell silent.

When the black mist dissipated, all that remained in the courtyard, besides Lynn and Mary who was paralyzed with fear, were hundreds of skeleton soldiers with green soul flames flickering in their eyes!

They picked up the scattered weapons and stood quietly in the courtyard, like emotionless killing machines.

The figure of the black-robed wizard slowly emerged in the distance, as if he had never left.

He looked at the new "materials" with satisfaction and nodded to Lynn.

Lynn took a deep breath and bowed to the wizard in gratitude.

"Thank you for your help, sir. Lynn will remember it forever."

"Hehehe—"

The wizard let out a strange laugh, then vanished into black mist once more, leaving only the words:

"I'll remember, my name is Siru..."

With the wizard gone, the skeletons dispersed and took up positions in the courtyard, guarding Lynn.

Is this the work of a wizard?

Indeed powerful and bizarre!

I wonder how strong these skeletons are.
