Chapter 1: Strange Roads
The blade flew in the air, and his posture flashed, Li Mo pulled out the short blade on his waist and slashed forward with all his might, but a short blade of the same specification also appeared in front of him, blocking Li Mo's short blade.
Then the blade retreated, and Limo's body involuntarily rushed forward, and because of the collision of force, it fell weakly towards the ground, and there was a dart that had been fought before and stuck there.
The people who were fighting with Li Mo obviously also discovered this, so they hurriedly reversed the blade in their hands, stretched out their hands, and stopped Li Mo's fallen body, and then felt a cold dagger against his neck.
"I won!" Li Mo smiled very happily, for this day, he practiced for eighteen years, honed his skills every day, thought about the plan to defeat the enemy, and finally defeated him today: "Senior brother, right!"
A bitter smile flashed on the resolute and peaceful face of the person holding Limo, he was Limo's senior brother Sheng Heng, looking at the dagger around his neck, Sheng Heng chuckled and said, "Indeed, ......"
"It's you who lost, Limo!" a voice came, interrupting Sheng Ge's next words.
Li Mo looked stunned, looked at the middle-aged man sitting on the steps in the distance, Li Mo slowly stood up, holding a dagger in his hand, but did not leave Sheng Heng's neck, and asked unadmittedly, "Why?"
"It's just a competition, and you're using something other than the competition. The middle-aged man looked at Limo reproachfully: "You use your own safety and your life to force Sheng Heng, who is worried about you, to save you, so as to win the victory, this is already an evil way!"
"But this is your teaching, Master!" Li Mo clenched his hand, green tendons burst out in his hand, and he said with some excitement: "Master, you taught us that assassins are for their own beliefs, to overcome everything, to use everything. ”
"And I took advantage of this to defeat Senior Brother!" said Li Mo excitedly.
"It's true that you uphold your own beliefs to overcome everything, but you are too much, just like you use tricks, you are always used to doing your best, leaving no way out, have you ever thought about what if Sheng Heng didn't react just now?"
"You will only destroy yourself like this!" the middle-aged man said solemnly: "I will punish you to go to the top of the mountain for one night, and think about your own mistakes." ”
"This ...... Master, although Xiao Mo has been a little, there is no need to punish him, it is now winter, and the weather is freezing. Sheng Heng scratched his head and said.
"You don't have to intercede for him, just because until now, his dagger is still on your neck!" the middle-aged man closed his eyes and said in a cold voice.
Li Mo gasped, dropped the dagger in his hand, blocked his heart in one breath, walked away without looking back, limped around the temple hall, and walked towards the top of the mountain from the side path.
Sheng Heng wanted to chase after him, but was stopped by the middle-aged man, he said a little tiredly: "He didn't beat you just now, and he is not angry in his heart, let him go to the top of the mountain to calm down, and I will call Ling Ge to persuade him." ”
"Yes, Master. Sheng Heng said respectfully, his fingers wiped his neck, and when he saw a touch of red, he couldn't help but flash a trace of worry, and he had some doubts about the master's handling method, but his long-term respect and belief in the master made him not speak, but he couldn't help but flash a thought in his heart, maybe this time it would be better for Limo to win.
The top of Mt. Seimi is carved out of a half-circle of flat land, and on the other half of the mountain wall, there is a line of simple handwriting: We firmly believe that faith is not everything.
"Contradictory!" Li Mo cut a bite disdainfully, stood on the top of the mountain, looked at the surrounding scenery, all the scenery under the mountain was in his eyes, and a cool breeze blew, making Li Mo feel a chill.
The instructor of the temple at the foot of the mountain rang the bell, heralding the coming night, in the Celestial Scar Continent, night means danger, and the omnipresent beast of life threatens the lives of humans.
Li Mo is a member of the Assassin Order's Sacred Seeing Branch, to be precise, the second disciple of this generation of the Sacred Seeing Division, his master, that middle-aged man is none other than the previous generation of Assassin Master Kesu, who has mastered superb assassination skills and powerful celestial scar power.
The assassin master Kesu has a total of five disciples, Sheng Heng is the first, and although Limo is younger, he started early, so he is the second disciple, and Limo, who is an orphan, is extremely strong, always thinking of winning over the senior brother Sheng Heng.
And today it was clear that he had won, but he was not recognized by his master, which also made him extremely unconvinced, the sun gradually set, and Li Mo's gaze suddenly moved when he looked at the bottom of the mountain, where a strange light suddenly flashed at the top of an ancient tower.
"Could it be the Celestial Scar?" Li Mo's heart moved, the Celestial Scar is a thing with strange powers, any of which can bring magical powers, but although there are a lot of such things, they are also in the hands of various large organizations.
The Assassin Order naturally has a lot of Celestial Scars, but because the Celestial Scars are too powerful, they will only be given by the master when they are out of the school, and the ancient tower is in the backyard of the temple, the number of floors is not high, and there are no tricks, it looks too ordinary, and there are many of the same ancient towers.
"The backyard of the temple has been locked, we haven't entered it much, and we haven't paid much attention to that ancient tower in the past, if it weren't for the light, I wouldn't even pay attention to that ancient tower, is this some secret method imposed by the Order?"
Li Mo thought about it, shook his head, what does this have to do with himself, continue to think about how to defeat Sheng Heng is the problem, but that strange light flashed through Li Mo's mind again: "If you take charge of the Heavenly Scar, you should be able to easily defeat Sheng Heng." ”
With this thought, Li Mo looked down again, but he didn't find the ancient tower, if he hadn't really seen it before, he would have thought that he was hallucinating.
"Is it hidden?" Li Mo calmed down, a strange light flashed in his mind, and finally the ancient tower appeared in Li Mo's eyes again, flashing a smug look, and some scruples were slowly forgotten.
"I'm almost out of school, so it's okay to get the Heavenly Scar in advance. Li Mo persuaded himself and said, using the stealth skills he had learned, he quietly touched the backyard, and then climbed the ancient tower, rolled through the window into the tower, and came to the top of the tower after a while.
I saw that in the center of the top of the tower, a black gem was placed on a wooden pillar in the center, which was also engraved with various runes, and a pale yellow barrier was shrouded around it.
As if sensing the arrival of Limo, the gem emitted a trace of fluctuation, and the surrounding barrier silently dissolved, and the centimeter also ignored a large amount of wrongness, stepped forward, and grabbed the black gem.
Suddenly, the black gem turned into a black aura and poured into Limo's body, and he opened the clothes on his chest to see that there was a tattoo there, like a pitch-black sun.
