Chapter 57: The Bitter Man

The base of the island where Purgatory is located is huge, and it is the entrance and exit of many secret realms!

The secret realms that need to be entered and exited in the northern training camp, such as the rookie camp secret realm, the recruit camp secret realm, etc., are mainly used for cultivation, and the number of secret realms connected there is actually very small. In addition, there are two common secret access zones throughout the island base, which are called the safety zone and the danger zone respectively.

The danger zone is located in the south of the island, and there are more than ten secret realm entrances and exits, and the secret realm connected here is the frontier in the mouth of the soldiers, because those secret realm spaces are all places that have not yet been completely occupied, or are in a state of war with foreign races, and are the front line of war.

The safe zone is in the western part of the island, connecting more than 20 secret realms, all of which are completely occupied and in a secret realm space that is continuously developed and maintained. Li Luo had been there when he had just entered the camp for the assessment, and it was here that he entered the No. 1 secret realm and successfully passed the test of the young light beast.

As for the entry and exit zones of these three main secret realms, there is actually a more important secret access zone, which has almost all the entrances and exits of the above secret realms, and is a special passage, located in the middle of the island base, not far from the residence of high-ranking generals.

At the beginning, Shi Invincible entered the secret realm of the Purgatory New Barracks from here, Youjing and Luo Tao rushed to hear the news, and they also entered through here, and their exit from the secret realm of the new barracks was the remote camp that the human race retreated to after the ghost clan broke through the new barracks, which had a strong defensive power.

The purpose of these special entrances and exits is of course to be for emergency purposes, and ordinary soldiers or ordinary officers are not qualified to enter and exit through this passage without a warrant from the general.

When the old elixir master Luo took Li Luo to evacuate, he came out of this special passage, because at that time, the new barracks had been occupied by the ghost clan, and the regular access channel had been completely destroyed by humans before the ghost clan occupied the new barracks, which was to prevent the ghost clan from killing from that passage to the main space inhabited by humans.

The old elixir master Luo did not bring Li Luo back to the northern training camp, but instead entered the No. 5 secret realm from the safe zone and settled down in the human base in the secret realm. It was certainly not his decision to do so, he did not have that power, it was just an order he received from the Super Watch.

The environment of the No. 5 secret realm is not good, to be precise, it is very bad, the whole air is blowing strong winds all the time, according to the top commander of the base, although this secret realm is rich in resources, most places are very dangerous. In some places, the strong wind forms a powerful wind blade or tornado, which is equivalent to countless earth-level powerhouses launching joint attacks, which is very terrifying, and there are even more places rich in strange powers.

Therefore, he solemnly told Li Luo not to run around at will, and if he wanted to go to a place more than two hundred miles away from the base, he must report it first.

In fact, Li Luo had no intention of running around at all, and his heart at this time was only thinking about becoming strong quickly.

After that, he ran to a cave in the mountain behind the base and stayed there, and locked himself in a cave for retreat. The old elixir master Luo Pu set up a tent outside the cave and accompanied him quietly, and he didn't see his cultivation every day, except for going to the base to get food, he basically looked at the sky in a daze the rest of the time.

Li Luo asked him what he was looking at, and he always said that there was something in the sky and he wanted to see it clearly!

But in fact, there is not a single bird in the sky, except for the constant wind!

A few days later, Li Luo got used to it, focusing on his own practice, as time passed, the earth spirit pill became less and less, and on the eighth day, he successfully broke through the human-level silver level, and the fourth golden mountain-shaped inner pill was formed in the inner mansion, which was basically the same size as the human-level red stone step and the black iron step, and revolved around the huge inner pill formed by the human-level bronze step.

It wasn't until the eighteenth day of cultivating in the cave that he had risen to the peak of the human-level silver level, and the Earth Spirit Pill had finally been exhausted.

When it was dark, he came out of the cave, only to see old Lop sitting in front of a campfire roasting an unknown animal, the enticing fragrance of which made his fingers flutter.

"Old Loop, what is this?"

"I don't know, I picked it up on the hillside over there. When Old Lop laughs, the wrinkles on his face become more numerous, but it feels very intimate and natural. "Wait a few more minutes and it should be delicious!"

"Hmm!" Li Luo smiled and sat down next to the campfire.

The two stared at the flickering flames, and after a long time, Old Lop spoke again: "Tomorrow Shi Wenlong will come to see you!"

"Oh!" Li Luo replied with a vague voice.

"I just watched his recent battle video in the afternoon, and you can't beat him!"

"Oh!" Li Luo still replied so flatly.

Old Loop looked at him in surprise, as if he was a little curious about his true attitude, but after looking at it for a long time, he found nothing, and said with a smile: "You are very special!"

"You're special too!"

"Why?"

"When you look at the sky, you have a strange feeling that you are as great as the sky!"

"Really?" said Old Lop, puzzled.

"Well, I'm very observant!"

"Oh, if only it were so great!" said Old Lop laughing, and without further ado, happily removed the shiny lean meat from the shelf. "The meat is ready, taste it, and for your sake of complimenting me, I will give you four legs." ”

Li Luo also smiled and stared at Old Luopu's wrinkled cheeks: "When you care about others, won't you make fewer excuses? In this way, others will be more likely to feel your goodness and sincerity!"

"You're the first to say I'm sincere, people used to call me an old liar!" Old Lop shrugged and said casually, "Then why do you believe me?"

"I have been questioned by many people, I understand the feeling that everyone looks down on me, I always feel that what you say is not true, in fact, it doesn't matter, the important thing is that you didn't hurt anyone, and you didn't deceive to benefit yourself, and you are good to people!"

"You're kind!"

"I'm not kind, when I'm strong, I must pretend to be cool and handsome in front of the people who have humiliated me, what to repay grievances with virtue, help the poor, eradicate rape and eliminate evil! Pretend to be a fork and slap my face! In short, I have to try it and find a feeling!" Li Luo said happily.

"Hahaha......" Old Lop couldn't keep his mouth shut, and the wrinkles almost covered his eyes. "Why don't you say that heroes save beauty?"

"Forget it, it's not a good thing to provoke too many feelings, don't talk about trouble, it's still sad!" Li Luo shook his head again and again.

Old Lop looked at Li Luo's somewhat frightened appearance and was happy. "Things in the world are very strange, sometimes you want to provoke, but you can't provoke it, you don't want to provoke but you hit the muzzle, isn't it?

"What lovers! we are partners!" replied Li Luo loudly.

"Yes, yes, yes, it's a partner, it's a confidant!" Old Lop muttered, muttering dissatisfiedly, "I would like to have a few such partners!"

“......”

Li Luo was speechless, and suddenly felt that he should have a comprehensive understanding of Old Lop from the beginning.

The two of them had a nonsense about not having a match, and it was getting later and later, so they lay down next to the bonfire and fell asleep unconsciously!

The next morning, when Li Luo opened his sleepy eyes, Old Lop was already sitting on a stone not far away in a daze, still holding an old cigarette stick in his hand, smoking "beep".

As if sensing that Li Luo woke up, he didn't look back, and the cigarette stick knocked a few times next to the stone.

"Shi Wenlong has been waiting for you at the bottom of the mountain for a while!"

"Why didn't he come up!"

"I'll keep him waiting!"

"Will he listen to you?" Li Luo was confused.

The old elixir master Luo Pu is a non-combat formation, belongs to the cook, and only has one second lieutenant rank, and although Shi Wenlong has not yet determined his military rank, as a human-level gold-level warrior, he will at least be a second lieutenant in the future, and the two of them belong to different systems, so it is more normal for Shi Wenlong not to buy it.

Unfortunately, Old Lop did not answer, and quickly turned his gaze to the sky again, and was once again stunned.

There is a wide flat land at the foot of the mountain to the north, because the environment of this secret space is very harsh, so this soil does not grow ordinary plants, only a lot of hard basalt is piled up, which is transported by the soldiers of the base, this basalt is tougher than most synthetic metals, and has a wide range of uses, which is a precious basic resource.

Li Luo walked slowly down the mountain and saw a strange young man on the flat land at the foot of the mountain.

This person stood high on top of the stacked basalt, very mastery, wearing a recruit suit, his physique was very strong, in addition to his height, the muscles on his body were almost comparable to Instructor Hao Bo, and the battle suit was bulging. Of course, his appearance is obviously better than Hao Bo's, his eyes are dark and shiny, his sword eyebrows are flaring, and he has the unique handsomeness of Orientals.

Shi Wenlong had long noticed him coming from the mountain, and as he walked closer, his gaze became more and more fierce.

"You are Li Luo!"

"Yes!" Li Luo said casually, standing still about twenty paces away from Shi Wenlong.

"You killed my brother, and that's my only relative in this world!" Shi Wenlong's voice was calm, but it clearly contained a strong anger.

Li Luo felt Shi Wenlong's imminent outburst of emotion, and shook his head: "I wanted to kill Shi Tang, but I didn't kill him, he died in the hands of others!"

"Are you still quibbling? Is this interesting?" Shi Wenlong was already on the verge of eruption, and his voice trembled a little.

"I have no need to quibble, I am telling the truth, but if you insist on that, I don't want to explain more, because in a sense, he did die because of me, even if he didn't die at the hands of someone else that day, I would still try to kill him!"

After Li Luo spread his hands, he looked into Shi Wenlong's eyes, and said word by word: "Besides, you should understand what kind of person your brother is, if you violate me or the people around me like him, then I will try to kill you as well." ”

These words made Shi Wenlong's anger disappear a lot, and he stared at Li Luo for a long time, and finally released his clenched fist.

"I know what kind of person my brother is, and I know that he deserves to die, but he is my own brother after all, my only remaining relative, and my mother asked me to take care of him before she died!" Shi Wenlong's voice gradually turned stronger: "Besides, even if he deserves to die, it shouldn't be you who killed him privately, you don't have the right to deprive him of his life!"

"I don't have the right, but you know, the purgatory training camp is very special, there are independent rules, if I don't kill him, he will kill me!"

"I understand, but that's just what you have to do, and what I have to do now is to avenge my brother!"

Li Luo understood, judging from Shi Wenlong's character, it was obvious that the life-and-death battle between the two was inevitable.

After a moment of silence, he gave up and continued to explain, and said with a little helplessness: "You are very protective and paranoid, you are a good brother, and you are also a downright man, but you are not a good person!"

"Are you a good person?" Shi Wenlong asked lightly.

Li Luo was stopped by these words, and he was bored for a long time, but finally shook his head.

"It's not!"

"Do we need an explanation between us?"

"No, but you can fight!"

Li Luo's attitude also became firm, earlier he was still trying to resolve this hatred as much as possible, but after seeing Shi Wenlong himself, he felt that no matter how much nonsense he had, it was useless.

Shi Wenlong looked at him deeply, his eyes showed a little unknown regret, he looked silently into the distance for a long time, and said faintly: "Don't you want to know why I am willing to fight for purgatory and fight against the Shi family? Originally, I didn't want to tell you, but Youjing and Admiral Luo Tao persuaded me again and again, and I couldn't help but give them face, not to mention that it was also related to whether I could win the Four Prisons Challenge." ”

Saying that, Shi Wenlong turned his gaze to Li Luo again, and continued in a very indifferent tone: "The reason is very simple, even some blood, how I hope that such bloody things will always exist only in movies and television, in fantasy, but you are also an orphan, you should understand that reality is more ridiculous than those fantasies, fantasy is just a human structure, after all, it starts from the cognition of reality, and reality always happens when it is unimaginable." ”

"I understand!" Li Luo nodded calmly.

Shi Wenlong fell into memory, and his eyes gradually flashed with more intense hatred, far more than just now, and there was a slight fluctuation of strength around his body.

"I hate the Shi family, just because my mother is the Shi family, and she was poisoned by that bastard who is invincible!"

Li Luo was silent, faintly understanding, but did not say anything.

"Hahaha......" Shi Wenlong smiled inexplicably, his face revealing deep pain. "Shi Wuving, that bastard, liked my mother when he was young, and used the power of the Shi family to force and beg, and did everything possible to marry into the door, but later for the strength of the family, in order to strengthen the relationship with the Linghu family, in order to marry, and finally forced my mother away, forced away the young me and Shi Tang, and secretly sent us to the Xiangyang Shi family, and never contacted each other again.

But even so, they were not satisfied, in less than three years, Linghu Jizhen, the sinister woman, actually used the deterrent power of the Linghu family to force the Shi family to kill my mother and wash away her shame because someone scolded her in public for being just a second room, saying that my mother was a hundred times better than her!"

When Shi Wenlong said this, his eyes were already red. "When my mother died, my younger brother was still young, and he didn't remember anything, but I remember! I knew everything! If it weren't for an old-timer who couldn't look past me and saved Shi Tang and me that day, both of us brothers would have been poisoned by the Shi family sent by Linghu Jizhen. But what is Shi Wushu doing? What is Shi Tiantu doing? They acquiesced! Hahaha...... This is my own father, my own grandfather! What a bloody story! It's ridiculous!! But one day, I'll make everything more bloody!"

If it weren't for Youjing's earlier advice, what Shi Wenlong said would be true, Li Luo probably didn't believe it at all, but at this moment he could only be silent.

From Shi Wenlong's laughter, he could feel that kind of grief and indignation and unforgettable hatred, if it seems crazy, in fact, it is not only fighting against the historian, but also against fate!

Shi Wenlong is really a very extraordinary person, and he took a deep breath to calm his agitated emotions.

"What else do you want to know?"

Li Luo was a little unbearable, and he couldn't bear to reveal the scar of the hard-working man in front of him again, but out of caution, he finally had to speak again: "Then why doesn't the Shi family kill your brother now, but will seek revenge because of Shi Tang's death!"

Shi Wenlong tried to restrain his emotions, and said in as calm a tone as possible: "Four years ago, the Shi family suddenly learned that our two brothers broke through the extreme realm, and the talent they showed became more and more amazing, and they were a hundred times stronger than the young wastes of the Shi family today, so they used clever words to deceive our brothers, my brother couldn't withstand Shi Wu's emotional offensive, and believed them, but I will never believe it, I only believe in the helpless eyes I once had!"

Shi Wushu couldn't convince me, and in the past two years, he has become more and more urgent, and I don't dare to confront him head-on, so I have no choice but to come to purgatory as a Xiangyang historian, not only to become stronger, but also to temporarily alleviate their persecution. My younger brother also insisted on coming with me, Shi Wuxian's bastard might have some conspiracy, he didn't object, and secretly instructed him to take the opportunity to take away the "Overlord Jue" from purgatory. If you kill Shi Tang, it is equivalent to killing the strong man they want to cultivate with all their heart, with Shi Wu's invincible character, with the current power of the Shi family, and with the current weakness of purgatory, how can he not make a big fuss!"

These words finally solved the doubts in Li Luo's heart, but out of curiosity, he still asked one more question: "Then it's too early for you to resist Shi Invincible now?"

"I'm a warrior of Purgatory now, and Purgatory is my backing......" As he spoke, Shi Wenlong seemed to realize something, and suddenly looked at Li Luo angrily: "Does this have anything to do with proving my hatred for the Shi family? I'm afraid you're asking too many questions, and I'm not obliged to explain more to you! Is everything you are saying now enough for you to believe in me in the Four Hell Challenge, and is it enough for you to fight the enemy wholeheartedly?"

"Enough!" Li Luo nodded.

Shi Wenlong didn't say anything more, stared at Li Luo for a long time, and suddenly burst out with fierce energy, like a vague cyan tiger, enveloping his whole person.

Li Luo hurriedly ran "Hundred Heavy Mountains", and the golden mountain energy erupted and shone brightly.

But the next moment, Shi Wenlong threw a fist at another pile of basalt in the distance.

A cyan tiger formed by the strength of the qi instantly burst out of his arm, and pounced out with a strong ferocious might.

"Bang!"

The energy is pervasive, and shallow holes appear in the basalt.

Li Luo's gaze became solemn, this is basalt, known as a natural defensive barrier, the tenacity is beyond imagination, to make a hole in it, he knows very well what kind of huge attack power is needed.

"Li Luo, your Baizhong Mountain can't stop me, this punch should have hit you, but we all have more important enemies, after the Four Prisons Challenge, I will fight you to the death, you'd better become stronger." ”

"Why?" Li Luo asked in a low voice, he didn't know why Shi Wenlong was showing his strength, it seemed completely meaningless.

Shi Wenlong took one last look at him, jumped off the stone pile, and walked slowly towards the base, leaving only a vague word.

"If my brother doesn't turn out like that, maybe we'll be good friends if you hadn't killed my brother, I'm sorry!"

Li Luo stood quietly in the wind, staring at the distant back, and suddenly showed a faint smile.

"Shi Wenlong......
