Volume 1: The Inside and Outside of the World 037 Death is inevitable, but killing is not necessarily ugly

"What do you think about your training?" After answering Yangshu's question, Chu Qiu said to everyone.

"I decided to further my natural magic skills to improve my lethality against ghostly enemies, as well as to strengthen my sword training. Rachel spoke first, unhappy with her performance in the mission to annihilate the tigers.

"Speaking of which, Rachel, if you are from the London branch, have you received Lancelot's [Infinite Martial Arts] or Gawain's [Sun Trial]?" Chu Qiu asked.

Rachel shook her head and replied, "No, I was transferred to Yanhuang as soon as I was promoted to a level 1 Sun Knight, and considering the conflict with Lingwen and Lingbing, I was not arranged to undergo any trials. ”

It is true that there will be a certain conflict between these blessings, especially under different systems of power. Chu Qiu nodded, expressing agreement, and turned his head to look at An Yi, "An Yi, what about you?"

"Recently, Master will teach me the art of imperial swordsmanship, and I should focus on that. An Yi replied.

Chu Qiu nodded again, and then said, "Okay, it's okay, let's disperse today." ”

Yang Shu was anxious, and slapped the arm of the chair suddenly: "Bold, have you ever asked Lone's opinion?"

Chu Qiu rolled his eyes at Yang Shu: "You go home and daydream that a [vector manipulation] is stronger than anything else, what else do you train." ”

"According to what you say, you go back and have an epiphany of martial arts, and directly shatter the void, what else do you train?" Yang Shu sneered.

"I don't have the strange ability of Daydreaming. Chu Qiu sneered, not falling behind.

"What's wrong with daydreaming? If you don't have dreams, what's the difference between you and salted fish?"

"Aren't you just a salted fish?"

"Captain, don't play tricks on the poplar," An Yi stood up to help the poplar speak, "Poplar because your foundation is weak in front of you, and your ability is very special, so most cultivation methods are not applicable, and the captain just hasn't figured out how to arrange your training for the time being." ”

"I knew the captain still loved me. Yang Shu was about to pounce on Chu Qiu, but was slapped back into the chair without accident.

"Poplar, to be honest, your abilities are too uncertain, and giving you a training direction too early won't help your growth. Chu Qiu said, his expression serious.

"That is, wait until I have a powerful ability that I can use as a foundation before I think about the next step, and before that I do the most basic things, right?"

Chu Qiu nodded.

Poplar sat on the chair, put his hands on the table, crossed his fingers to support his head, frowned in thought, and muttered in a low voice:

"To live or to perish, that's the question. ”

He seriously thought about the direction of future development, and he still knew that there was no end to life and no end to learning, and now it may be time to make a choice.

"[Steel and Iron Bone] + Fighting Ability?No, it's like a gorilla;[Flame Manipulation] + Escape Ability?No, isn't this just a crispy mage;[Son of the Earth] + Fighting Ability, no, this is Chu Qiu's template;[Weapon Mastery] + Cold Weapon, isn't this the route of the Sword Soul······"

While browsing the list of superpowers of the [Ability Grocery Store], while thinking about the future development route, before I knew it, it was already nine o'clock, and Yang Shu still couldn't make a final decision.

He stood up, stretched, cleaned up and walked out of the activity room, ready to go home.

"Poplar, here. ”

When Yang Shu walked into the carport, he heard a voice calling him, and turned his head to see He Yue waving in a bookstore facing the carport on the street.

"Hey. The poplar let out an inaudible sigh.

He Yue ran across the road and jumped in front of the poplar tree.

"Didn't you say wait for me at the school gate at 10 o'clock, why are you here now?" asked Poplar.

"Waiting for you to 10 o'clock and waiting for you at 10 o'clock is not contradictory. He Yue looked at the poplar tree with a smile, and the white school uniform reflected a white halo under the light of the street lamp.

"Let's go. Riding a bicycle, the poplar stopped in front of He Yue.

He Yue let out a heavy "um", got into the back seat, put his hands around the poplar's waist, and pressed his face up.

The bicycle drove slowly under the torrent of street lights.

"I'm sweating a lot, it's smelling, you should stay away. Feeling the softness of his back, Poplar felt ashamed.

"I don't mind. He Yue replied coquettishly, but hugged her tighter.

Poplar did not speak.

······

"What kind of person would you like?" Suddenly, He Yue in the back seat asked in a loud voice.

Yang Shu thought about it seriously, and then replied: "If it was a few months ago, I would like a lively and cheerful, confident and self-reliant girl, she would be spoiled to me, and she would tolerate my shortcomings, and we would work together towards that common future." ”

He Yue was overjoyed and continued to ask, "What about now." ”

"Now, I don't want anyone to like me, and I don't want anyone to like me. There were not many people in the streets, and when Poplar said this, he looked up at the dark night sky through the dim light, and a sense of loneliness rose for no reason.

"Ah, why?" He Yue was very surprised.

Yang Shu was silent for a while, he thought of his experience since joining the Federation, although it was not nine deaths, but he had also faced the danger of his life many times, and he was still under the protection of Chu Qiu, and that sense of powerlessness was deeply embedded in his heart.

"Because if a man is killed, he will die. He replied.

At this time, the poplar tree was passing by a park.

"Ahh

"Ahh He Yue in the back seat was frightened and also screamed quietly.

Yang Shu realized that something was wrong, but at this moment, He Yue was still by his side, and it was inconvenient to go to investigate, so he turned his head and said, "Hurry up, I'll send you back quickly." ”

Then, with the afterburner on his feet, he rode at full speed, and the red bicycle turned into a red phantom in the dark night, speeding through the streets.

A young man roaring through the street on a motorcycle suddenly felt a strong wind beside him, and when he came back to his senses, he found that he had been overtaken.

"Yo, which kid is so crazy, dare to overtake my snake brother's car?" the throttle slowly twisted, and the engine roared.

However, when he got closer, he realized that the person who had overtaken him was riding a bicycle and had a person in the back seat.

"Dude, racing the bike, I'll serve! Brother Snake on Xialongjiang Street, I have a chance to enjoy my face and have a meal!" Brother Snake shouted towards the back of the poplar tree.

The bike drove past a tachymeter with the number "70km/h".

Three minutes later, in front of He Yue's house, a bicycle drifted and stopped.

He Yue jumped out of the back seat, cheered, her little face flushed, and shouted: "Poplar, it's so exciting!

Yang Shu's face was as usual, but there was some sweat on his forehead, and he said to He Yue: "Be careful, you go back first, I still left a little beforehand." ”

"What are you going to do?" He Yue asked, but the poplar tree had already pedaled his bicycle away.

He Yue's mood changed sharply, kicked a pebble on the side of the road, and said to herself: "What, don't tell me what to do, I'm angry." ”

Another 3 minutes later, at the gate of the park where the screams came from before, Poplar stopped the car, took off his shirt, and walked into the park.

The park is rarely visited due to its dilapidated condition, and the poplars have only been visited once or twice.

Walking through the gate, you are greeted by a small lake.

The park was silent, save for a few faint sounds of insects and dogs barking, and poplars walking clockwise along the dim streetlights of the lake.

In front of it is a small hill with a gazebo at the top.

Walking up the dirt road to the gazebo, it was still silent, and there was nothing unusual about it.

Standing in the gazebo, you can see the panoramic view of the park, the east side of the low terrain is a piece of antique buildings, there is a small square in front of the ancient building, and on the north side is a hill, the top of the hill has been bulldozed for viewing purposes.

From time to time, people pass by in the small square, and the small hilltop is sparsely populated, and the probability of crime is greater, so Poplar decides to explore the top of the hill first.

Breathing down and slowing his steps, the poplar slowly walked up the stone stairs of the winding mountain, and since there were no street lights, he touched the stone wall on the side with his right hand to grasp the distance.

When he reached the 726th step, poplar's right hand felt a thick wetness.

Retract your right hand and take out your phone for a photo.

His hands were bloody, and the half-coagulated blood covered his palms, and he realized the seriousness of the matter, and without worrying about alarming the prisoners, he rushed all the way to the top of the mountain with his mobile phone lighting.

A few minutes later, we reached the top of the mountain, where there were several street lamps that emitted a miserable white glow.

A woman, naked, fell face down in the middle of the summit platform, the skin on her back peeled off, her ribs folded backwards, and she burst out like an angel's wings.

It's full of strange beauty.

At the same time, the death of the woman was announced.

A cold light swept across Poplar's eyes, and he held his mobile phone and shone in the direction where the cold light came from.

The cable car descending the mountain moves slowly and is illuminated by the lights of mobile phones.

In the carriage, a miserable white Marquardt mask, a scarlet tongue spat out from the slit of the mask, licking the dried blood from the blade.

The blade reflected the white moonlight.

In the next second, the poplar tree looked again, but the figure disappeared.
