and Roy. Mastan talked about the situation he was facing, and Liu Mengchao had already made the next plan in his heart. In fact, in and Roy. During the meeting with Mastan, although Liu Mengchao said about the formation of the Sage's Stone, he concealed the two most important points.

The first name is about the identity and origin of those artificial people, of course, they were popped out of the cracks in the stone by the story, but Liu Mengchao's words did not explain the origin of these people. In addition, Liu Mengchao had already consciously come again at the beginning. Mastan's thinking made him feel that this matter was just something that the country's army wanted to do. Perhaps the country is faced with such a situation, and only the most drastic measures can save the country.

But after that, things actually took a turn for the better.

The so-called turning point was the man Liu Mengchao met in the wilderness of Dabris in the south, the man named Hoffenheim. He is the same era as the villain in the bottle who created the artificial man, in other words, he can even be said to be one of the origins of a qiē.

From the very beginning, he had been planning to destroy the villain in the bottle, the plan to turn the entire nation into the Philosopher's Stone. The time for this plan to be implemented is so long ago that even Liu Mengchao himself doesn't know when it started. However, if you want this plan to really succeed, Liu Mengchao still has a very serious opinion in his heart.

The so-called plan, if the fewer people in contact, the more likely it will be successful, the so-called conspiracy will not be detected by others only in the case of secret.

Liu Mengchao thought so, and was even ready to do so. Liu Mengchao didn't know Roy. What does Mastan think about turning the entire country into the Philosopher's Stone, although when the two of them met, Roy. Every inch of Mastan's face seemed to say that he was ready to stop this, but what if he knew better?

After all, the upper echelons of the country. Shouldn't all be people who think about their own selfish interests? Why didn't anyone come out to stop it, were they all blinded by their own interests?

Liu Mengchao felt that this was definitely not, and there must be secrets in it that he didn't know. It is precisely because of these secrets that a country can be completely controlled by artificial people. No, it's not so much controlled by artificial humans as it is controlled by the selfish desires in the hearts of these people.

Human beings are like this, many times in their hearts they just think about themselves completely and don't care about anything.

Thinking of this, even Liu Mengchao himself began to feel a little sleepy. He began to feel his eyelids fight and looked up at the sky. The moonlight in the sky was even hazy than what I had just seen, and the light moonlight fell from the sky, falling like snowflakes on Liu Mengchao's side.

I saw Liu Mengchao stretching lazily, and his steps became more relaxed and casual. He walked slowly, as if he could walk into his own sleep in one or two steps.

It was only at this time that Liu Mengchao's nose suddenly moved. The nose wrinkled slightly, as if a foul smell came in from Liu Mengchao's nasal cavity, and it swirled in Liu Mengchao's mind.

Who is it?

Liu Mengchao's brows furrowed tightly in an instant, and he couldn't help but look around him. As far as the eye can see. It was a deep alley, and the ground of the alley was covered with bluestone-paved streets, and mottled green moss crawled on it. From time to time, water droplets drip from a high place, falling after I don't know how many years have passed. Finally sunken into the small hole.

Is this the power of time?

Liu Mengchao grinned at the corner of his mouth, smiled, and walked under the eaves that stretched out. Stretch out your palms. Liu Mengchao's palms have always been extremely white, and under the slightly transparent moonlight, every inch of palm lines are clearly visible.

Tick.

There was a soft thud. A drop of water rolled down from a high place and landed in the palm of Liu Mengchao's hand, he raised his head, but he didn't see the direction from which the water droplet came, this drop of water seemed to appear in this world for no reason, and it suddenly made people want to laugh, but they couldn't accept it anyway.

"Because that's the last thing you see in this world."

The voice with pride and even disdain sounded behind Liu Mengchao at this time. Liu Mengchao didn't look back, and he could guess that the person standing behind him must have a nasty face. In any case, this face is bound to have the word pride written on it.

"Who are you?"

Liu Mengchao asked slowly, and looked down at his palm again. I thought it was just a drop of water, but now I can see clearly that it is a drop of blood.

A drop of blood, this blood seeped out of his palm, it seemed to be playful, and it seemed that he didn't want others to know his existence.

The blood is clear, and it's also frustrating.

Liu Mengchao slowly narrowed his eyes, looking at the small red blood stain in his palm. He had always been confident in his abilities, absolutely not convinced, and at that moment, he was attacked. After all, the speed of such an attack is really too fast, even so fast that it is completely impossible for him to react.

Why is this happening?

Liu Mengchao subconsciously frowned, looking around for the direction from which the voice came. He had just looked back, and there was indeed no one behind him now.

"Are you looking for me?"

The voice rang out again, full of mockery, far away but still audible clearly.

Liu Mengchao heard it very clearly, so the expression on his face was also very interesting. I saw that the corners of his mouth curled slightly, pulled out a beautiful arc, and then skimmed down slightly.

"Pretending to be a ghost."

This is Liu Mengchao's evaluation, and it is also Liu Mengchao's idea. What he said was very simple, but it seemed to directly anger the visitor, and I saw that the shadows that were originally gathered around Liu Mengchao, as quiet as moonlight, suddenly began to tremble. It was as if a pool of moonlight had suddenly been thrown into a rock, mixing up the entire surface of the water.

After the confusion, the natural world begins to change.

Countless shadows began to shake their bodies, like hard and slender steel whips, rushing out from every corner in all directions, directly attacking Liu Mengchao's face.

I see......

Looking at the shadow that was about to hit his face, Liu Mengchao suddenly realized why he had been attacked like that just now. It is clear that the person who has just attacked himself is able to manipulate the shadow. Then, with the help of a shadow created when the water droplets fell into the palm of his hand, he instantly pierced his palm.

A qiē seems to be such a strange scene, if you look at it from a different perspective, you can only say that it is nothing more than that.

That's just the way it is.

But that's it.

This was Liu Mengchao's thoughts, and at this moment, Liu Mengchao's feet slammed on the ground, and the whole person quickly began to retreat. He retreated quickly, almost in the blink of an eye, and he had already left the shadows that were washing towards him for dozens of meters.

It's just that this distance doesn't seem to be enough, more shadows begin to rise in the places where Liu Mengchao's eyes can reach, wisps, clusters, like endless grass, the grass on those grasses began to grow one after another, and then intermittently surrounded Liu Mengchao.

Retreat, retreat!

Liu Mengchao saw that the shadow was already approaching his face, and the whole person no longer hesitated, and kept retreating behind him. He retreated so fast that he almost slid an indiscernible afterimage in the air. It's just that the distance of this afterimage is limited after all, and it has stopped in the blink of an eye.

Not for any other reason; It's just because Liu Mengchao has now receded to the edge of the wall. He had just appeared in the deep little box, but now he was trapped in the alley.

It's not a long alley, but it's so painful.

Everywhere, you can see the shadows that grow after being sprinkled by the moonlight.

These shadows, like circles and loops of traps, wait for a careless prey to walk into, and then suddenly curl up, biting the prey viciously open its throat and absorbing the blood bit by bite.

This is what Liu Mengchao can see now.

"Trapped Beast."

The shadows on all sides shouted coldly at the same moment, full of pride and disdain.

Is it wrong to be trapped and fighting?

Hearing this, the corners of Liu Mengchao's mouth curled, his face was full of disdainful smiles, and he opened his eyes to watch the attack that never came.

What's going on?

Liu Mengchao couldn't help but raise his head and look at the bright moon in the sky. It wasn't until now that Liu Mengchao realized that the walls around him were so high that the moonlight couldn't enter his side.

In this case, the shadow, which was supposed to be born under the moonlight, naturally began to slow down its pace and did not appear in front of Liu Mengchao.

Is that so? Liu Mengchao looked at the situation in front of him, glanced at the corners of his mouth, and directly cocked. He had thought that the cyborg who had suddenly attacked would be able to manipulate the shadows with ease and reach any place.

"If it's dark in the whole house, you're not going to attack, are you?"

Liu Mengchao said, looked at the environment around him, and said with a smile.

Sure enough, just like Liu Mengchao said, the originally expected attack did not come in the end, so it stopped in front of Liu Mengchao. (To be continued......)
