There are five countries on the Tian Yuan Continent, namely the Tianjin Empire in the north, the Huasheng Empire in the south, the Sunset Empire in the west and the Suoyu Federation in the east, and in the center of the four major countries, a piece of land with a small hexagonal area bordering the four countries is the most famous Holy See on the Tian Yuan Continent.
Except for the Sunset Empire and the Huasheng Empire, the other kingdoms can live in peace.
Every year, each country has to pay a certain amount of "protection money" to the Holy See to cover its expenses.
The humans of the Tianjin Empire are almost all Caucasians, with tall statures and blond hair and blue eyes, while the Sunset Empire and the Huasheng Empire are both yellow with black hair and black eyes.
The only federal system on the continent is the Suoyu Federation, with a complex human race, including whites, yellows, and strong black people, and many aliens also live in the federation.
In terms of overall strength, the Cord Federation, which consists of six races, is the most powerful, while the other three nations have similar forces.
In addition to the main human population on the continent, there are also some sparse races, such as the kind elves, the short-tempered dwarves, the winged people who can sing and dance, and the sparse orcs who only live in the dense forests, as well as the most mysterious dark demons and legendary dragons.
These races, which are few in number compared to humans, are scattered among countries and have coexisted peacefully with humans for thousands of years.
However, due to different living habits, aliens generally live in sparsely populated valleys or forests, and rarely come into contact with humans.
Although the Holy See occupies only a small area on the mainland, the Holy See has a supreme position on the mainland.
With the exception of a very small number of atheists, almost all of humanity is a loyal believer in the Holy See.
The clergy are the most respected profession, and in the Holy See, the highest authority is the Pope, under the Pope, there are four cardinal priests to assist the Pope in handling the affairs of the Holy See, and they are also called cardinals.
Twelve white-clothed priests were under the red-clothed priesthood, and when more than half of the red-clothed priests and white-clothed priests thought that the pope had made a major mistake, the pope could be impeached, but because the promotion of the pope was very strict, there had been no impeachment of the pope since the birth of the Holy See.
Underneath the white-clothed sacrifices are high-level sacrifices, intermediate sacrifices, ordinary sacrifices, and preparatory sacrifices, and the sacrifices are also called monks or goddesses.
The clergy in the Holy See are not forbidden to marry, but the object of the union must be the most loyal believers of the Holy See.
There is another reason why the clergy are respected, that is, they are all light magicians, and if they want to be promoted to the position of white-clothed priest, the monks must have the level of light magicians or above, and the magicians on the continent have never reached the triple digits.
The power of the red-clothed sacrifices is even more unfathomable, and there is once a legend that if the four red-clothed sacrifices and the twelve white-clothed sacrifices of the Holy See attack at the same time, the power of their light magic can be equivalent to the total force of any country.
The promotion of the pope is generally selected by the priesthood of the cardinals, and it is necessary to go through a very strict process, after the selection of a new pope, the old pope will hold a passing ceremony, passing on the supreme special abilities of the Holy See to the next pope.
No one has ever seen what kind of strength the pope has, because, in the past thousand years, there has never been a situation where the pope has been needed.
The presiding judge of the Inquisition has the same rights as the priest in the red robe, and the judges under the presiding judge are also known as the executioners of the Holy See, they are the craziest believers of the gods, and they have never had one word to kill when dealing with the infidels.
Unlike the orthodox clergy, all members of the Inquisition have no concerns and are completely controlled by the Presiding Judge, who is directly accountable to the Pope.
There is a unified currency on the mainland, that is, a coin engraved with the coat of arms of the Holy See customized by the Holy See, the coin adopts a decimal exchange method, one diamond coin, ten amethyst coins, one hundred gold coins, one thousand silver coins, and ten thousand copper coins, and the annual income of ordinary families is generally about fifty gold coins, and it takes about thirty gold coins to maintain a family life for a year.
Each of the four countries has its own common language, and in some large cities and aristocratic classes, the Holy See language is generally spoken.
Our story begins with Nino, a small city in the northernmost province of Birno in the Tianjin Empire on the north side of the continent.
Nino City, located in the northernmost part of the Heavenly Gold Empire's Birno Province, belongs to the extreme north of the entire Tian Yuan Continent, with short days and long nights, and is in cold weather all year round.
Most of the people here make a living by fishing in the ice sea next to the town.
There are moving icebergs floating in the ice sea all year round, and the seals and sea lion furs that are abundant there are very popular among the nobles.
The clouds in the sky floated slowly, as if it would bring another snowstorm.
In a gloomy alley in Nino, several people in torn cotton jackets gathered together.
One of them, a middle-aged man with a scar on his head, was glaring at a little girl with black hair and black eyes, only twelve or thirteen years old, and thinly dressed.
The little girl was very thin, her face was sallow, her half-length hair curtain covered the part above her nose, she couldn't see her face clearly, her whole body trembled, and a pair of bright big eyes looked at the middle-aged man in fear through the black hair.
"Slap" The middle-aged man slapped the little girl to the ground, and scolded angrily: "You dead girl, stupid to death, you can't complete such a simple task, if it weren't for the dumb to pull you back, you would still accompany the old lady, I was really blind at the beginning, how could I take you in this waste, I know how to eat all day long, and I won't do anything." ” A boy who was a little taller than the girl next to the middle-aged man stepped forward to help the little girl's trembling body up, carefully wiped the blood from the corners of her mouth for her, and said to the middle-aged man in a daze: "Uncle Li, just forgive the girl again, I, I'll go and bring a few fish back later." ” Uncle Li snorted, looked at the boy with the same black hair and black eyes, and looked stupid, his voice softened a little, and said: "Dumb, every time you intercede for her, just bring back those few fish, can everyone eat here, no one can get it for nothing, girl, today for Dumb's sake, I will let you go again, and then there will be another time, hum."
Let's go.
As he spoke, he walked out with a few other young children, and before he reached the mouth of the alley, Uncle Li turned around and said to Dumb with a pleasant face: "Don't forget what you just said, it's best to take a few big fish, you know?"
Dumb nodded, and Uncle Li left satisfied.
This group of people is the lowest thief living in Nino City, they can't be called thieves, because they can only rely on some petty theft to make a living, the so-called leading fish, is stealing things, and Uncle Li is their head.
He had a dozen children under him, only the girl was a girl, all of whom he had picked up as an orphan from the street.
Among these children, this boy named Dumb is the most capable.
At the beginning, Uncle Li fell in love with Dumb had a pair of dexterous little hands to take him in, this child has always been a head and brain, sometimes he speaks unfavorably, he doesn't know what his name is, and he learns the skills of stealing things very slowly, and his brain doesn't seem to be very good, so everyone calls him Dumb.
However, although Dumb is stupid, but he is very persistent, after several months of teaching by Uncle Li and his own hard work, he finally remembered the trick of holding the sheep, and has practiced this trick to the point of perfection, in order to practice the speed of the shot, he even poked the snowflakes on the ground with his fingers on the cold street, the less the snowflakes stained, the better his eyesight, although this method is stupid, but it has a good effect, months of practice, finally let Dumb have the foundation of holding the fish.
What excites Uncle Li the most is that he is stupid, he doesn't know what it means to be afraid, and he doesn't understand that pulling fish is a bad thing, as long as he gives him steamed buns to eat, he will definitely do what he is told.
Walking on the street, no one will pay attention to a child who is not outstanding in appearance and has straight eyes, but it is often just a mistake to make a mistake, and their money bag has already reached the hands of Dumb.
When Uncle Li saw the bulging money bag in Dumb's hand for the first time, he couldn't close his mouth in surprise, and since then, Dumb has also become the most "favored" among this group of children, he can eat at least one or two cold and hard steamed buns every day, which makes other partners envious.
Although the dumb man is a bit stupid, he is a very good person, and he often gives away part of the food to others when he is not full, but those companions are not grateful for his kindness, but often play tricks on him, and even steal his food.
The girl was accepted by Uncle Li from the street a year ago, and I heard the girl herself say that since she can remember, she has been living with an old woman, and although her life is hard, she is also well fed and warm.

More than a year ago, the old grandmother fell ill and died, and the girl had no source of livelihood, so she had to rely on begging to survive.
The reason why Uncle Li accepted the girl was because he fell in love with the girl, no, he fell in love with the dilapidated house that the grandmother left for the girl, in the cold Nino City, what is better than a house sheltered from the wind and snow The girl is just the opposite, she learns everything very quickly, and Uncle Li's "skills" were all mastered by her in less than a month.
However, the girl is also the only child who has never caught a fish so far.
It's not because she can't be skilled, the most important thing is because her heart is too kind.
She had already succeeded a few times, but when she saw the anxious look of the lost owner, she couldn't help but send it back.
For this reason, she doesn't know how many times she has been beaten, and every time, Dumb has carried it down for her, and the two children who are smart and stupid have naturally become good friends, and they are very conspicuous in this group of thieves, because, only they are yellow, and it may be for this reason that Dumb and the girl have a deep friendship with each other.
Today, because the girl returned the things in her hand to the anxious woman, she was beaten by Uncle Li.
Uncle Li's figure finally disappeared at the end of the alley, and the girl threw herself into Dumb's arms and cried bitterly.
Dumb looked at the thin body in his arms, wiped the snot on his face, carefully patted the girl's shoulder, and said, "Girl, don't, don't cry."
It hurts, isn't it?"
After a while, the girl's crying stopped, raised her cold red face, looked at the boy in front of her, and said with teary eyes: "Dumb brother, it's really painful to be alive."
Dumb obviously didn't understand what the girl meant, took out half of the steamed buns that were already hard like stones from his arms and handed them over, and said in a sneering voice: "Girl, give it to you, you won't be in pain when you're full." ” The girl looked at the silly and sincere boy in front of her, took the steamed bun, sobbed a few times, and said, "Dumb brother, why are you so good to me?"
Dumb pulled the girl to sit in the corner, took off the torn cotton jacket on his body, draped it on the shoulders of the two, snuggled up with the girl, and said innocently: "I have a good treat for you, eat steamed buns, eat steamed buns, you won't be cold after eating steamed buns."
I'm going to have to catch the fish later.
As he spoke, he salivated at the half of the cold and hard steamed bun like a stone in the girl's hand.
The girl looked at Dumb's honest face, and couldn't help but be a little stupid, and with both hands, she divided the half of the steamed bun into two and handed it to Dumb.
Dumb swallowed and spat, and said, "I, I'm not hungry, you can eat by yourself." ” The girl stuffed the steamed bun into Dumb's hand and said, "I have a small appetite and can't eat so much, let's eat together."
As he spoke, he held his quarter-piece of steamed bread in both hands and took a hard bite.
Dumb sighed, gobbling down the quarter of the steamed bun, because it was eaten too fast, I couldn't help choking, "Ah, woo." ” The girl looked at Dumb's flushed face, and couldn't help but chuckle, and while patting him on the back, she grabbed a handful from the snow left on the ground the day before yesterday and stuffed it into Dumb's mouth.
Dumb worked hard to turn the snow into water, and it took a long time to swallow the dry steamed bun in his throat, let out a long breath, patted his chest, and said, "Thank you."
After a while, the girl finally worked hard to finish her steamed buns, and suddenly said to Dumb: "Dumb brother, when I grow up, marry you, okay?"
Dumbfounded, trying hard to think about the meaning of the word marry, it took a long time to say: "What is marriage?"
The girl sighed secretly and said: "Marry, that is, I want to be your wife and take care of you for a lifetime, I will agree to you, and you are not allowed to regret it, from now on, my girl will be your dumb fiancée."
You're going to have to treat me well. ” Dumb nodded and said, "Fiancée, okay, then I'll give you a little more steamed buns every day." ” The girl gave him a blank look and fell into a speechless state.
After a long time, with the help of the padded jacket, the girl has warmed up a lot, she put the padded jacket on Dumb's shoulders again, and said to him: "Dumb brother, go and take the fish, or Uncle Li will scold you again."
I, I'll go with you. ” Dumb nodded, helped the girl to stand up, and asked, "Girl, why are your skills better than mine, but you return the fish to others every time?"
The girl sighed and said, "Dumb brother, don't you know that it's wrong to steal other people's things?"
Dumb shook his head and said, "But, if we don't lead the fish, we will starve."
The girl knew that she and this stupid guy couldn't explain clearly, so she simply didn't say anything, pulled Dumb out of the alley, and the two walked towards the most prosperous part of Nino City, only there, there would be a good target, the girl secretly decided that she would help Dumb bring a few more fish back today, in order to repay him for his kindness to herself.
They had just walked a short distance when a call suddenly came from behind them, "Little girl, you stop." ” Dumbfounded, he turned around at the same time as the girl, and what appeared in front of them was a gorgeous carriage, and the small window of the carriage showed the face of an elderly woman, and the girl recognized that it was the person who handed over the money bag today.
"Little girl, it's really you," said the woman, with a smile of surprise on her face, and with the help of the servant, the old woman stepped out of the carriage, dressed in sumptuous clothes, made of fabric that Dumb and the girl had never dared to imagine, and covered with a shawl of mink fur.
The girl said a little timidly: "You, what's the matter with you?"
Dumb thought that the old woman was going to trouble the girl, so he hurriedly blocked the girl behind him and looked at the old woman in front of him vigilantly.
The old woman smiled and said, "Children, don't be afraid, little girl, you gave me back the money bag just now, I haven't thanked you yet, it's such a cold day, why are you dressed so thinly?"
The girl shook her head and said, "I don't need to thank you, I stole your money bag." ” Dumb was startled, although he was stupid, he knew very well what would happen if he was caught by the object of the fish, so he hurriedly covered the girl's mouth and said hurriedly: "Girl, don't talk nonsense." ” The old woman didn't order her servant to beat the girl as Dumb imagined, but still said with a smile: "Then why did you return the money bag to me?"
The girl pulled away Dumb's hand and plucked up the courage to say, "I, I see that you are in a hurry, so I will return it to you."
Don't embarrass him, hit me if you want to. ” The old woman smiled slightly and said, "Well, you are really an honest and kind good boy, I know that you must not be willing to steal things, right?"
What about your parents?"
The girl's eyes were red and she said, "I have no parents, I am an orphan." ” The old woman frowned and sighed: "A good boy like you shouldn't stay here and suffer, come, come here, let grandma see."
As she spoke, she beckoned to the girl.
Dumb was afraid that the girl would suffer, so he hurriedly said, "Don't go, girl, let's go quickly." ” The girl didn't listen to Dumb's persuasion, she faintly felt that maybe the old woman in front of her would change her life.
She walked up to the old woman with her head bowed, and stood there tremblingly.
The old woman picked up the girl's dirty little face, combed her loose hair to the back of her head, took out a white handkerchief from her bosom and wiped it on her face, nodded and said, "Well, child, you must have suffered a lot."
Are you willing to go with your grandmother, who can provide you with a good life and let you receive a normal education. ” The girl's big eyes lit up, she turned her head to look at Dumb, Dumb looked a little anxious, and stood still in place.
"What's the matter, don't you want to go with me My husband is the governor of the Mica Province, which is the place where the Empire borders the Holy See, and the seasons are like spring.

It's too cold here. ” The girl turned around and looked at the gorgeous and glamorous outfit on the old woman, and asked tentatively, "Grandma, can you take my brother with you?"
The old woman looked at Dumb, and Dumb wiped the two yellow snots flowing down her face with her hand, looking stupid.
A disgusted look flashed in the old woman's eyes, she shook her head, and said, "No, he tried to deceive me just now, he is not an honest child, I can only take you alone."
Hurry up and decide, it's really cold here. ” The girl hesitated for a moment, looked at the carriage and the old woman in front of her, and then looked at the shabby dumb, and nodded resolutely: "Okay, I'll go with you." ” The old woman smiled with satisfaction: "Well, this is a well-behaved good boy, then let's go, let's get in the carriage and find a place to help you change your clothes first, if you wear so little, you will freeze." ” The girl said, "Grandma, wait for me."
As he spoke, he turned around and ran quickly to Dumb, "Dumb brother, I'm leaving, don't blame the girl, okay, I really don't want to live this kind of life without food and clothing anymore, dumb brother, you have to remember what we said just now, when I grow up, I will definitely come back to you." ” Dumb said: "Girl, are you really leaving, Uncle Li knows and will beat you." ” Two lines of tears slipped from the girl's eyes, and she choked up: "Dumb brother, don't worry, he won't have a chance to beat me in the future."
I'm gone, remember what we just said.
If you have a chance, you can also leave Uncle Li, he is not a good person.
Stop being a thief.
After speaking, before Dumb asked how to have steamed buns to eat if she was not a thief, the girl had already turned around and ran to the old woman, who took the lead in getting into the carriage, and with the help of the servant, the girl also got into the carriage that looked warm and gorgeous.
Before the curtain was lowered, the girl looked at Dumb again, as if she wanted to remember his appearance.
The carriage was gone, leaving Dumb standing in place, looking at the carriage in the distance, Dumb had a faint sense of loss in his heart.
For Dumb, in his heart, the girl is the only thing more important than the steamed bun.
"Smack" Uncle Li knocked out a few small money bags in Dumb's hand, and scolded: "You stupid, you just watched the girl go away with the fucking people, wasting so much food from Lao Tzu, and dared to run away before returning Lao Tzu, this dead girl dared to run, angry with me, really angry with me."
Uncle Li kicked Dumb to the ground and kept walking in the small wooden house.
Dumb curled up on the ground in pain, sobbing, "No, I didn't let her go, she was going to go." ” Uncle Li was angry, and when he heard Dumb's words, he was even more angry, kicked Dumb a few times, and scolded angrily: "If she wants to leave, you let her go, stupid to death."
Make you stupid, make you stupid.
The screams kept coming out of Dumb's mouth, and the thieves next to him all gloated at everything in front of them, and none of them came up to dissuade them.
After a while, Uncle Li's anger disappeared a lot, and he remembered that Dumb was his main source of income after all, and if it was broken, where would he find such obedient subordinates.
Angrily picked up the money bag on the ground, and said to Dumb: "Learn to be clever for me in the future."
"A man walked out, and the thieves knew that he had gone to drink.
Dumb shrunk in the corner in pain all over his body, he couldn't figure it out, it was obviously none of his business, why did Uncle Li beat him.
The girl's words lingered in his mind as she left.
The other thieves ate the leftovers from the restaurant that Uncle Li didn't know from, laughing and chatting about the day's experience.
When Dumb remembered that he hadn't eaten anything for a day, he didn't even have any dregs.
His heart seemed to be pressed by something, and his thoughts about the girl became stronger and stronger, and the girl was right, it was really painful to live Early the next morning, Uncle Li mercifully threw a steamed bun to Dumb, and when he devoured it, he was sent out to start a day's fish-pulling operation.
The sporadic snowflakes falling in the sky brought a faint chill to passers-by.
Walking slowly on the road, Dumb thought to himself, when will there be another old woman who will take herself away, when will the steamed buns be full, and he will be satisfied.
The girl doesn't know what happened, she and the old woman left, do you have steamed buns to eat every day?
Just as he was thinking, he suddenly saw a strangely dressed person in front of him, and the reason why he felt strange was because the tall figure of that person was completely shrouded in a large cloak, and he couldn't see his face clearly from the outside.
There seemed to be a bulging money bag dangling under the cloak, and Dumb decided to make him his first target today.
While thinking, Dumb quietly followed, took out his sharp little blade from his belt, and waited for the opportunity to make a move.
The reason why Dumb can often succeed in catching fish has a lot to do with his tenacity, whenever he decides on a prey, he will definitely follow the other party until he succeeds.
Then, the man in the cloak walked into a luxurious restaurant, the restaurant was decorated from the outside, the roof was paved with glazed tiles, Dumb thought to himself, if he could eat here, he must have a lot of money in his purse.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but be secretly happy, if he could bring more fish back, maybe Uncle Li would let him eat a full meal of steamed buns.
He crouched in the corner next to the door of the restaurant and waited patiently.
"Go, go, go, little beggar from where, stay and go."
The doorman of the restaurant kicked Dumb and looked at him with disgust.
Dumb had long been accustomed to this kind of snobbish doorman, so he hurriedly nodded and ran farther, and found a dark corner that could shelter the wind and snow before squatting down again.
Playing with the sharp blade in his hand, Dumb waited patiently, he was not in a hurry at all, he always had to come out after eating.
A full hour passed, and finally, the man in the big cloak walked out, and to Dumb's excitement, the man was walking towards him.
The front is the best place to start.
He hurriedly stood up, stabilized his mind, and walked towards the man.
The man's figure was very tall, Dumb only reached the place around his stomach, the distance between the two was constantly narrowing, Dumb scratched his hair with his hand with a blade, and when the two were one meter apart, Dumb stumbled under his feet and collided with the man.
Dumb suddenly felt as if he had hit an iron plate, and his whole body was in indescribable pain, and he inadvertently raised his head to see the person's face.
It was an old face, with countless fine wrinkles on its face, as if it were seventy or eighty years old.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."
Dumb is busy with him.
The old man just snorted, but did not speak, and still walked forward, as if he did not know that his cloak had been cut through a gap, and the money bag around his waist was gone.
Seeing that the other party was not embarrassed for himself, Dumb ran forward excitedly, and accidentally slipped by the snow on the ground, and fell on all fours, affecting the injury that was beaten by Uncle Li yesterday, making him continue to spasm.
But even so, it was hard to hide the excitement in Dumb's heart, when he got the money bag, he found that the weight was unusually large, even if it was completely copper coins, it was enough to pay today.
Shaking to his feet, he ran quickly into an alley.
Turning his head to see that no one was chasing him, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, patted his chest, and sat down.
However, what Dumb didn't know was that the object of his theft was engaged in a special profession of alchemist on the mainland.
In addition to the clergy, there are several professions in various countries that are above the ordinary laborers, and these professions have formed their own trade unions and become several special forces on the continent.
The mercenary union, the union with the largest number of people, the so-called mercenary, is actually a special profession that performs some simple or difficult tasks at the request of the owner, they get different remuneration according to the difficulty of the task, and the mercenary union branches scattered around the country are the most ideal place for them to receive tasks, of course, the mercenary union is not in vain for the mercenaries to serve, they will charge a certain fee according to the difficulty of the task.
The team composed of mercenaries is called a mercenary group, and generally some very difficult tasks, employers like to find a powerful mercenary group to perform, even if they pay a high price.
Mercenaries and mercenary groups are divided into six levels, the lowest level is the fourth-level mercenary or mercenary group, and so on, up are the third-level mercenary, the second-level mercenary, the first-level mercenary, the special mercenary and the highest-level super mercenary, due to the large number of mercenaries and mercenary groups, it is very difficult to rise the level of a mercenary or mercenary group.
Mercenaries of different levels will be awarded different badges by the mercenary guild, and in the mercenary organization, mercenaries or mercenary groups with higher levels are very respected by their peers who are lower than their peers.
Magicians' union, magicians are second only to clergy on the mainland, because the cultivation of magic has extremely high requirements for their own quality, therefore, the number of magicians is extremely rare, among which those magicians who practice light magic are almost all accepted by the Holy See, which makes magicians even more precious, they are often hired by high-paid troops, almost all magicians above the intermediate level will be named nobles by the kingdom where they are located, therefore, the profession of magicians is also the most desirable for ordinary civilians, It stands for honor and power.
Magicians are divided into Beginner Magicians, Intermediate Magicians, Advanced Magicians, Grand Magicians, Magicians, and Magisters.
Since the state subsidy is their main source of income, magicians will generally go to the Magicians' Guild to obtain the badge corresponding to their rank in order to receive the corresponding remuneration, of course, to obtain the badge needs to be assessed by the Magician Guild.
The Wizards' Guild is also the only one that pays for it without having to pay for it.
Alchemist guilds, although small in number, are very respected in various countries, and the unions of various countries are often bought by the state, because the weapons in the hands of alchemists are much better than those made by blacksmiths, and they are the best choice for equipping high-level armies.
The Tianjin Empire got its name because they had the largest union of alchemists in the Shikoku.
Alchemists actually belong to the side branch of magicians, most of them are good at fire magic, what they are stronger than magicians is their knowledge of various minerals and medicines, powerful alchemists can often forge high-level divine weapons, the value of these divine weapons is almost immeasurable, and they are deeply loved by the royal families and even the Holy See.
Alchemists are also the richest of all classes, except for killers.
Alchemists are classified as apprentice, beginner, intermediate, advanced, special, and master.
Although alchemists also have national and corresponding rank badges, high-level alchemists often disdain to receive them.
The killer union, the smallest number of people and the most mysterious union on the mainland, also called them the killer group, although the number of people in the killer guild is not large, but they all have high ability, they accept murder tasks through some underground channels and charge high commissions.
The organization of the union is extremely tight, and there are only two ways to join it, first, it is to go through all kinds of difficult tests, and second, every year the Killer Workers Association will announce a very difficult task, and as long as someone can complete this task, they will be absorbed as a member of the Killer Workers' Association.
Of course, it is definitely much more difficult to accomplish that task than those difficult tests, and it is very likely that it will cost you your life.
Due to the intrigue and power disputes between human beings, this trade union, which is a common people, has always been able to survive on the mainland.
Killers also have a clear hierarchy, from lowest to highest, into assassins, assassins, ninjas, and exterminators.
These killers are under the unified management of the Killer Guild, and their identities are extremely secret and unknown to outsiders.
They do not belong to any country, and their number has never exceeded a hundred, but they are a rather formidable force.
There are very few magicians among the killers.
The thieves' guild, to put it bluntly, is a collection of high-ranking thieves, and some nobles will hire thieves in the guild to steal in order to get the valuables they want.
Not every thief can participate in the thieves' guild, and although the requirements for its members are not as strict as those of the killers' unions, they also need to go through various examinations to absorb only those thieves with high quality and professional skills.
The level of thieves is divided into thieves, high-level thieves and acquirers from low to high, and thieves who can generally reach the level of acquirers are honored only if they have repeatedly stolen priceless treasures, and they are also the most feared ethnic group of most nobles.
The thieves' union has one of the strictest rules, and that is that murder is absolutely not allowed.
It is precisely because of this that they have not been exterminated by the armies of various countries.
In order to better complete the tasks assigned by the employer, the thieves' union is the most well-informed.
Like the Killer Guild, the Thieves' Guild is a shadowy force on the mainland.
Pulling out the heavy money bag, Dumb's heart was full of joy.
The money bag is delicate, made of leather and has a six-pointed star hooked with gold thread.
Dumb has never seen such a beautiful money bag, he hurriedly opened the rope on it, and touched it, he revered, if there was a rose amethyst coin in the money bag, it would be a wonderful thing, more than a year in the industry, he stole an amethyst coin, remember that time, Uncle Li excitedly rewarded him with a big chicken leg, so that other companions were envious.
He had never eaten such a good delicacy, and in the end he shared it with the girl, and even the bones were eaten in his stomach.
That wonderful taste still lingers on him today.
When Dumb took out all the coins in the money bag, he was stunned.
Because, in the money bag, there are not only the "chicken legs" that he has been dreaming of for a long time, but also dozens of gold coins, and even a blue coin that is shining brightly and he has never seen before.

Looking at the small pile of purple mangs, this is a dozen "chicken legs" Ah, "I can eat enough, I can finally eat enough."
Dumb shouted excitedly.
Just as he was excited, the golden six-pointed star on the money bag suddenly lit up, and then an old voice sounded in his ears, "Have you never eaten enough?"
Dumb's whole body was shocked, and the coins in his hand couldn't help but scatter all over the ground, the voice, where did this voice come from, he looked around, and there was no one around, "God bless, God bless."
Dumb clasped his hands on his chest and kept chattering.
"Do you think the gods will bless a thief?"
the old voice sounded again, and this time Dumb heard it clearly, and the voice seemed to come from the exquisite money bag.
"Ah" Dumb exclaimed, threw the money bag out, his whole body couldn't help trembling slightly, this was the first time he had encountered this kind of strange thing, he was still a child after all, and fear came out of his eyes.
The sparse snowflakes are still falling, the sky is still so dark, at this moment, the torn cotton jacket on Dumb's body seems to be unable to bring him warmth anymore, and a cold current quickly rises from the bottom of his heart.
The money bag that fell not far away gave off a faint light, and the beautiful golden six-pointed star flashed like a dreamlike faint golden light, under the frightened gaze of Dumb, the golden light suddenly turned prosperous, and a vague figure appeared above the money bag, and the figure gradually became clear, it was the old man wearing a big cloak just now.
A strange and deep voice kept coming out of the cloak, and if Uncle Li was there, he would definitely find that the old man was chanting a magic spell.
Finally, his body completely became a physical body, and with a slight float, he fell to the ground.
The old man landed next to the money bag, he slowly bent down, picked up the money bag on the ground, and sighed: "It's been a long time since I haven't used this spell, it's really rusty."
Seeing the object of his fish appearing in such a strange scene, Dumb, no matter how stupid he is, knows that he is in trouble.
He never thought that he, who had not missed for four months, would be caught by the gold owner when he successfully pulled a big fish.
He curled up on the ground, his body trembling, and it was not the first time he had encountered a beating that he was about to face.
The last time he was caught, the big man almost broke his hand, if it wasn't for Uncle Li's timely appearance to scare the other party away, I'm afraid he would have no ability to lead the fish, let alone eat his favorite steamed bun.
The old man threw the money bag in front of Dumb, and said lightly: "Pick it up for me and put it back." ” "Yes, yes."
Dumb carefully grabbed the money bag in his hand, and took a deep look at the six-pointed star made of gold thread on the money bag, how could he not understand why people could "drill" out of the money bag He trembled all over, and carefully put a rose coin back into the money bag, this process lasted a long time.
Strangely, the old man didn't urge him, and a pair of shining eyes under the cloak kept looking at Dumb.
"Okay, okay, give, here you go."
Dumb tried his best to be humble, holding the money bag in both hands and handing it to the old man, perhaps, acting cowardly, and being beaten later, the other party would beat it lightly.
Dumb never thought of resisting, how could he resist with his "weather-beaten" body, even if the other party was an old man.
The old man took the money bag, neither moved nor let go of Dumb, still standing in front of him, looking at the thin child in front of him.
Dumb squatted down with his head down, his frozen red hands on his head, and his whole body curled up together as much as possible, waiting for the storm to come.
"Well, the hand is very good-looking, the ten fingers are slender, and the palm is broad, no wonder even I didn't notice that something was stolen.
You haven't answered my question yet, have you?"
