Chapter 60: Night Falls
The sun had sunset, and even the afterglow had almost dispersed.
"The time is almost up. β
Mo Ye didn't have to look at his watch to know this.
Because as the night fell, he felt that a cold current as cold as this night began to come alive in the depths of his soul.
Lin Ming is about to wake up.
Mo Xie had already flown far away, so far that when he turned back, he could no longer see the slightest shadow of Pumice Town on the horizon.
In exchange, most of his 'fuel reserves' have been burned out at the moment.
Looking down, there is a large expanse of mountainous area beneath you.
"That's pretty much it......"
Mo Xie didn't plan to move on, he picked a hill and fell.
Pulling the necklace hanging around the neck out of the clothes, another function of this prop has not been used for a long time.
Enter the 'Heavenly Realm', or the world that belongs to the 'Birdman' that was sealed in the necklace by the Lone Lantern Dao Man.
Sensing the growing chill that came up from the depths of his soul, Mo Xie flipped the necklace over.
He focused his gaze on the 'sacred inscription' at the base of the cross, and began to adjust the angle of the inscription.
Turning the cross slowly is like turning a key in a keyhole.
"Smack!"
With a slight explosion of air, Mo Ye disappeared in place.
What is he doing here?
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
Pumice Town, Orphanage.
It's already time for dinner, the table is set, and the dumplings, the main dish of the night, have been rolled three times in the pot.
The dumplings stuffed with leeks and meat make people swallow saliva just thinking about it, not to mention the sauces that have been placed on the dinner table.
Everyone was praying that they could eat dinner soon, because for some reason, Aunt Wang never announced that they could start dinner.
These children will not move until they have received Aunt Wang's 'order to open the meal', and they are still very obedient in this regard.
What is Aunt Wang doing at this moment?
"Still can't get through?"
In the infirmary, there are three people sitting in the small room at the moment, namely Xiaomei, Lan Xin and Heizai, the three of them are sitting around, Xiaomei and Heizai are sitting at opposite ends of the desk, and Lan Xin is sitting in the position that belongs to the patient.
It was Xiaomei who asked the question, and she still looked at Lan Xin with a wary expression, like a doctor observing his patients. I don't know why, she always felt that this girl's origin was not so simple.
Black Boy was also looking at Lan Xin, but his state was a little weird, because he looked away from Lan Xin after one look, and then at Lan Xin - if he moved a little faster, it would be like shaking his head.
Aunt Wang was standing, and there weren't enough places to sit here.
She was on the phone, frowning.
"Still no, it may be that Mo Ye's mobile phone is out of battery, and he keeps prompting the other party that it is not turned on. β
Aunt Wang eventually gave up and continued to try to make phone calls.
She sighed, as if she was worried about something.
Hey, what's out of battery, Mo Xie simply threw his phone into the necklace space.
He didn't plan to leave his phone for Lin Ming, because that would be too irresponsible for other people's lives.
But this guy is also naΓ―ve, do you really think that Lin Ming is as easy to get lost as he is?
"So what now? Are we going to keep her?"
Xiaomei clasped her hands to her chest, she didn't want to leave an unknown girl in the orphanage, which was revealed in her tone.
"Stay, stay!"
Aunt Wang didn't have time to say anything, and the black boy, who had been silent for a long time, spoke up, no, it should be appropriate to use "shouting out loud" to describe his performance just now.
"Shut up, little brat!"
Xiaomei glared at the black boy, although she didn't say anything, but the meaning in her eyes couldn't be more obvious.
Hei Zai looked quite afraid of Xiaomei, and immediately stopped his voice, as if he was afraid that he would not be able to control his mouth, and he covered it with his hand.
"Of course, this girl doesn't look like a bad person, and she can't eat much as a small person, so it's just a matter of adding more dishes and chopsticks. β
Aunt Wang didn't seem to hear the reluctance in Xiaomei's tone at all, and she took Lan Xin's hand.
"Xiao Lanxin, go with grandma~Eat dumplings tonight~"
I don't know why, Aunt Wang has an indescribable sense of intimacy with Lan Xin.
Who would be wary of such a cute little girl?
Well, except for Xiaomei, this guy has obviously seen something deeper.
After all, she had been in a big city.
Vaguely, she felt that Lan Xin's body seemed to have an old age that did not belong to her age.
"Thank you grandma~"
Lan Xin thanked her politely, and stood up from the stool with the force of Aunt Wang's hand.
She smiled sweetly, and immediately Aunt Wang couldn't help but want to hug her.
Well, it seems that Lan Xin is still quite lethal to the elderly, and the favorability plus one is no longer enough to describe.
That's at least plus three.
But in the same way, a woman of Xiaomei's age may have to lose points for Lan Xin's favorability.
Especially when she learned that Lan Xin lived with Mo Xie.
Women don't just blame a handsome guy, they only get angry with a woman - even if this woman hasn't caught up with a handsome guy, and the other 'woman' may only be a child.
Either way, there will be a pimple in my heart.
"It's time to eat~!"
The black boy, who didn't understand the thoughts of adults, followed him out heartlessly, and there were always more monks and less porridge on the table of the orphanage, so he had to strike first.
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
It's still a white world, and the castle floating above the clouds is guarded by towering gates and walls, so visitors can't get a full view of the city.
"Click!"
"Ugh!"
The crisp sound of shattering bones drowned out the victim's insignificant screams before dying.
The deceased, who was part of the perimeter of the city's guards, was silently approached by the intruders, who twisted his neck from behind.
"Whew~!"
Vigilantly watching, the intruder dragged the body of the deceased into the folds of the clouds and hid it.
"I'm sorry, I just wanted to borrow a place to use it, who called you unlucky, it happened to be near the 'advent point'......"
Saying this, Mo Ye, who was an intruder, didn't feel any guilt.
After all, the 'Paradise Realm' "Quest" will reset with each time he enters and exits, and these guys who write 'Angel' and read as 'Birdman' are like the little monsters in the 'Paradise Realm' Quest, and the next time Mo Xie comes in again, the guy in front of him will also be resurrected.
There's no point in killing here, because killing monsters doesn't cost you XP and equipment.
Is it just that what is happening here really makes no sense?
At this moment, Mo Xie didn't want to bother thinking about this problem, because he had more important things to do.
Sitting cross-legged, not far from the corpse was still warm.
"Forbidden art, activate!"
