The white mist was filled, and the drizzle poured on the wooden railing, melting away the bloodstains.

On the scarlet-paved road, the old man trembled and raised his hand towards the incarnation of the evil god who walked strolling,

"Ahem~ You guy, do you know what you're doing?"

The black dagger was slowly raised, as cold and ruthless as the hair color and eyes of a young man.

Continuously knocked on the distress device but never got a response, and the old man finally understood something, as an important member of the military department, it was almost impossible to attack and kill him.

But on the contrary, since the unknown opponent really arranged the plan, he would not have the possibility of escaping his life.

"It seems that today I am dead" The general laughed at himself, and then finally took a serious look at the murderer who ended his life this time,

The black hair is short, the clothes are tight, and the pale skin seems to be a sick and weak body, but he can completely annihilate the special forces arranged around him with the power of one person.

Guns are ineffective, shells are useless, and even localized map weapons can't be destroyed. This kid, in the end...

"Tell me, who is trying to kill me?" The general said slowly, and the cloudy eyes that had been indulging in wine-colored life for a long time finally gradually became clear.

Shaking his head, the boy did not answer, but put down the butcher knife.

Any goal can have a last minute, which is the last mercy he can give.

"Sure enough~" It seemed expected that he didn't get an answer, the general nodded, and took out another cigarette from the cigarette case, the spicy taste inhaled into his lungs and stimulated his spirit. Everything in this life walks in front of you like a slide.

In this life, starting from the grassroots level, it is not in vain for a small person with no background to get to today's position.

Money, women, everything they should have. He has been corrupt and brilliant, and he has done a lot of things for the country.

I wonder what future generations will say about me?

With a contemptuous smile, the general suddenly felt that his life seemed to... And there is no dissatisfaction?

Extinguishing the cigarette butt, the general slowly stood up, as a soldier ... Even in the end, there should be some backbone.

"After killing me, get out of there... I don't know who you're working for, but what those guys can give you, the state can give you... Living for thieves is not a long-term solution after all"

For some reason, the general said at the end,

He didn't instruct the boy what to do, because he knew that with the other person's ability, it would not be difficult to succeed.

"Hiss~" The black blade passed through his throat, bringing out a cloud of blood mist.

Confirming that the general's body was gradually cold, the young man spoke,

"I... There is nothing to want.... There is nowhere to go back and nowhere to go."

In late 2008, the No. 3 person in the Chinese military department passed away, and a plan that he had obstructed during his lifetime was finally quietly continued.

Extremely Secret Research Institute-X, the celebratory crowd touched each other, and even Xiyue showed a rare smile, which frightened the others inexplicably.

However, his eyes swept over the people at the banquet, but Xiyue never found the protagonist of this mission, Ah Ying.

If there is no job, there will be no him, and I don't know when such a saying began to circulate in the institute.

If the first time I came here, I still have a little human touch, then now...

All the partners who entered the institute at the same time died, and now, except for Xiyue and her sister, it seems that no one in the institute dares to see him anymore.

And what worries Xiyue even more is that recently, even she doesn't see each other often. Or, there is a reason why she actively avoided it.

Blood-stained, the boy's eyes finally began to change after losing his companions. It was a light in her eyes that made her feel fear, and as long as she met it, she would lose her strength and even become extremely difficult to breathe.

Perhaps because she hated this feeling, Xiyue also began to run away from him.

He must have felt it, Xi Yue thought.

Three months later, in Cairo, Egypt, under the sand-covered plains, the Shadows began their next mission.

There are no companions, not all because no one wants to team up with him, but also because he has his own will. In fact, as long as the tasks within the organization are with Shadow, the survival rate is still very high, of course, provided that you are not killed by him.

He has not communicated with people for a long time, and he has lost most of his ability to speak, so everything is based on action, and the content of action is mostly killing—he has become accustomed to killing.

But that's fine, the fingertips slashed over the black blade, and the shadow crouched down and touched the sand, and soon a black hole appeared under his feet.

Below the pyramid group of the plains, in the winding corridor, someone who has broken the labyrinth to the end of the maze breaks into the destination of the trip, a black pyramid, with a tough attitude.

The guys at the institute want the treasures in this building, and as for the shadow... There is no purpose.

He really didn't have a purpose, and his past life was because there were a few guys and Xiyue there, so he didn't think it was a bad choice to enter this institute.

But now, everything is gone. So, he can only carry out the task and get the job done.

At least at work, he is able to have a goal as a temporary purpose of survival; And outside of work, there is no point.

Perhaps the boy fell silent, and the coffin standing behind the wall exploded, and a pair of black arms stretched out.

"Hiss", crushing the head of the mummy that had risen from the coffin, Shadow held the black blade in his hand and bounced back at the cobra king's fangs, and elbowed the bandaged guard rushing behind him.

The battle begins, but it is not known when it will end.

Bandages and dust covered the ground, and decaying limbs covered almost every corner of the passage, showing the length and fierceness of the battle. Despite this, the last guards continued to faithfully carry out the order, immobilizing the intruder's body with their limbs the moment the fist shattered the torso.

The bandage seemed to have some sort of grease on it, dragging Ei's arms after the mummy guards scattered to the ground.

Next, without waiting for him to break free... The cobra king quickly rolled up his body and swallowed him in one gulp.

The tail shook slightly, but the snake king, which was dozens of meters long, suddenly stood up half-straight, and his huge vertical pupils stiffened.

"Hiss~" The black sword light revealed from the snake body, and the half of the snake king's body exploded, and he fell to the ground unwillingly.

Flicking out the black blade, the shadow returning from the snake's belly forward, entering the final secret room.

The "Ka~La" black blade penetrated deep into the stone slab, extending several cracks from the center of the blade surface, destroying the entire seal.

Picking up his weapon, Shadow enters the bottom of the Black Pyramid, the Catacomb.

Gold coins, utensils, jewels, relief tablets of merit, and the mummy that sits on the throne.

Did the Pharaoh, the monarch of ancient Egypt, make his body look like this in order to be able to reign over the earth again?

Why are they so attached to living? Thinking so, Ei's gaze fell on the face of the Pharaoh.

Target Confirmed - Golden Mask.

The scepter was stationed, and there was a loud sound, and in front of the Pharaoh, countless monsters with wolf heads and human bodies appeared, and they were the patron saint of the mausoleum, Anubis.

The right hand was stretched out, the palm was facing upward, and the air vibrated slightly, and the rich ability even the Pharaoh and Anubis couldn't help but take a few steps back.

"Why live? Why want to live? You... There's no place to hold you anymore, is there? The shadow said lightly, as if asking himself, and raised his arms high.

The black blade slashed down, and the sharp blade slashed the throne in two.

——In early 2009 A.D., at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean... The Lost Territory, Atlantis.

The vast complex of buildings is arranged in concentric circles up to the central square, and standing on the idol of the god can take in all that the lost place has to offer.

"Ang~" Reptiles like fish and people crawled all over the main hall of the square, staring at the intruders on the statue in a haze.

The cube film takes shape, enveloping the central plaza in larger and larger quantities until there is no gap.

The shadow feet that leaped from the height trampled on the wet earth,

"I'm sorry, I don't have the ability to breathe in the water, so I'll have to change the environment" grabbed the fish-man by the neck, facing the untreated pupils, waiting for them to gradually regain color, Shadow didn't seem to be worried about what the natives were doing out of the ordinary.

Strength was restored, and the fish-man species with unknown body structure quickly adapted to the environment of this space, although not completely... But was able to attack.

The harpoon reversal, combined with the force enough to shatter the rocks, the fish-people were confident that they would be able to kill the invading aliens.

Pity... The harpoon blunted in his hand, and the three spikes twisted together with great force and formed a spear.

"Boom~" turned his hand and threw the spear, and the shadow did not look at the surprised fish-man, and advanced towards the statue in the center of the square.

"Boom!" The spear pierced the chest of the idol, and he slowly stopped, raised his head to the face of the stone statue, who didn't know whether it was threatening or angry, and said in an indiscreet voice, "Sea Emperor Poseidon...... I want to meet the 'gods.'"

——In late 2009 A.D., the holy place of Buddhism - Wutai Mountain.

Solemn and quaint temples abound, and this land containing Buddhist teachings can be purified even by breathing, not to mention the effect of calming the mind.

Unfortunately, it was still useless for him.

A few months have passed, and now he is no different from ordinary people, but the monks in the ancient temple can see the essence of this guest...

The Buddhist family was supposed to open the door of convenience, but today's presiding officer asked the little novice to close the temple door and not receive any guests.

Bathing and purifying, robes and prayer beads, the host master who appeared again recited a Buddha name, and looked at the black-clothed young man coldly,

"Donor, but you're here to kill?"

Shadow shook his head, and his eyes flashed over the presiding officer and landed on the tall tower behind the ancient temple.

"Relic?" The host sighed lightly, and finally understood the other party's purpose, "The world is confused, and they don't know the essence of this thing, and they actually value it with money, what a pity."

Donor, the relics are the treasure of the ancient temple, and it is also the town of Wutai Mountain, although I don't know how you found here, but I can't give it to you.

If you can return it, please stop, and the old man is willing to exchange it for other items in the small temple. ”

Shadow didn't answer, Shadow's gaze lingering on the tower in the distance. He didn't see through the layout of Mount Wutai, and he didn't know that it was one of the most important parts of the holy place. He's only here because of the tower... can suppress his murderous nature.

The closer he got to that place, the more he felt at ease, his mind at peace.

It's a pity that because of this, his answer was a negotiation break in the eyes of the old monk.

"In this way, the old man can only be the one who subdues demons and suppresses demons" The host held the rosary in his hand, and raised his other hand gently, "Array"

The stake rose and trapped the boy in the center, and the Sanskrit sound sounded in his ears with a threatening sound, as if the holy place was expelling him.

Brilliant light seeped from the sky, pouring into the stake array like golden jade dew, and the host saw that the time had come, so he threw out the rosary in his hand.

The "crackling" rosary splits, wrapping around all directions of the stake with a long thread as a shaft, and the white silk made of unknown material cuts into the stake and encircles the shadow's body.

The robe followed, just wrapped around the shoulders of the shadow, and the whole large array also shone brightly, and the center of the stake presented the word 'swastika', which was the seal of suppression.

"Boom", Shadow's gaze finally withdrew from the relic, and the weight of the robe on his shoulders was far greater than the weight of a thousand pounds, as if he was about to be dragged off the ground.

"Amitabha, donor... The bitter sea is endless, and the shore is the shore when you turn back," the host said in a loud voice, and did not forget to leave a glimmer of life at this time.

On the black clothes, blood and black mist gradually escaped, and the young man's eyes lost their due luster and turned gray at some point.

"Snort", there was a crack in the seal of the robe, and the hundred and ten wooden stakes trembled, just like the brilliance of the sky seemed to have signs of shattering.

In this way, Eige finally looked at the stunned host and asked in a hoarse voice,

"Master... It seems that your Buddha... Can't cross me."

With the crisp sound of glass shattering, the robe on the black-haired boy's shoulders was completely broken, and the white silk rosary bounced off and was swept away by the spatial shock along with the wooden stake array, and disappeared in the strong light.

"Boom", within the ancient temple, a circular shock wave gradually spread and rose, evaporating everything it touched.

- Early 2011 A.D., Holy See, Vatican Basilica,

Seriously wounded knights abounded, and perhaps some had lost their breath. The anomaly that somehow stormed into the cathedral should have been reduced to ashes in the light of the Lord, as usual.

It's a pity that this time it was probably a special case, after bathing in the holy light, he only took off his outer robe, revealing that he was about a teenager inside.

A calamity that has not yet fully grown up, or a witch who deceives people with appearances?

With this in mind, the Holy See, which had convened the Knights, hoped to erase and expel it at the first time, because this holy place was an important place for the Holy See and could not be defiled in the slightest.

"Boom", the black-clothed alien flicked his fingers, and there seemed to be a strong shock wave in the air, which actually collapsed the armor hammer of dozens of knights.

"Hiss ~ boom" is another blow, and the armor that protects the knights is torn apart, and the flesh and bones inside are broken and tendons.

They have lost their combat effectiveness, but they have managed to buy enough time for His Highness the Pope.

The white star descended, and directly pressed the black-haired alien from the east into the ground.

Inside the re-rising obsidian, three pairs of snow-white wings spread out—the messenger of the Lord, the Seraphim.

"O demon, perish under the sword of the oracle," the chief knight said slowly, reluctantly sitting up, kissing the cross on his chest.

"Click", in the crack in the collapsed ground, an arm stretched out, slowly clenched into a fist.

"He's not even dead?" The knight was stunned and said,

The wind roared out of the hole, faintly visible black veins, and the ground continued to cavinate, as if there was an all-engulfing black hole beneath the hole, creating an endless attraction.

"Ang", the golden holy light of the seraphim archangel also showed signs of collapse in the face of the strong gravity, the long sword gradually hung down uncontrollably, and the divine envoy rushed down towards the hole in the ground with the sword in both hands.

"Ah~" The wall and the air seem to have a fault, which makes the knights feel extremely uncomfortable, and the fault formed by the spatial turbulence stagnates the seraphim archangel's long sword, and also imprisons its movements.

The black blade followed, and the alien returning from the shadows of the underground pierced the oracle's chest with the black blade, and rushed towards the top of the temple.

"Ah Ying, don't !!"

The closed door exploded under the powerful force, and the following Xiyue and the group finally arrived.

But the last scene they saw was a fallen angel crucified against the wall, and a demon who descended to the ground and completely turned into a shura.

The black pearl-like eyes no longer existed, and the blood color overflowed and turned gray, as in the past, this time Xiyue still didn't dare to face his eyes that didn't belong to humans... But no one dared to speak in front of him except her.

"Ah Ying, go back with me"

She said this, clenching her fists and barely suppressing the tremors throughout her body.

“？” The gray-eyed stranger turned his head, and his emotionless eyes looked directly at Xiyue,

Just a glance, as if a finger was choking her throat, Xi Yue reluctantly said,

"The plan is complete, and we'll help you boost your strength... Then you will be able to meet the real God."

In the dead silence of the church, everyone's eyes were focused on the gray-eyed alien, waiting for his answer.

"Crackling" just took a step to alert the Quartet, and he finally nodded, I don't know how many times ago, he had completely lost the ability to speak.

- 2012 A.D., Extremely Secret Research Institute - X, ten minutes after the failure of the God's creation plan,

In an unknown space, the inhibition of human consciousness has finally ushered in the first visitor in millions of years.

The black blade appeared in his hand, and the extremely powerful aura made Alaya frown,

"You're too dangerous... Can't stay here enough."

The space was frozen and silent, with no escape or avoidance, only a straight passage between the two of them.

After doing all this, the individual in the name of Shadow disappears from view, striking directly at the opponent in front of him.

"Your power is too strong, I will now divide it into two parts... Light and shadow, if the side of 'light' can grow to the extent of competing with 'shadow', then maybe one day you will be able to regain your true self.

The stars have a light and a shadow. We won't see each other again, but hopefully at some point in the future...

You really deserve that name."

In the shattered space, the bright light disappeared in an instant, engulfing the two figures, ushering in boundless darkness.

[I hope that one day, you will be able to get back your true self]

The sound sources faded away, the shattered memories faded, and only the fragments of the last paragraph remained.

On the high-speed bus, the young man slowly opened his eyes, and the blood mist in his eyes gradually thickened, and there was a gray appearance.
