Chapter 9: Killing
The dark forest, suddenly noisy.
The biennial Black Trial begins, a brutal trial for the Grass Durian Kingdom to select members of the Rapid Ninja Training, and for the 'natives' of the Dark Forest, it is a biennial feast.
A giant python coiled between the giant trees, its body covered by dense branches and leaves, and its pupils, which were cold in winter, explored below, where it could sense the direction of a dozen human breaths at this time. It slid and slid as it slid and crept slowly without making any sound, just awakened from hibernation, longing, hunger creeping in, and it swallowed the letter as if it were feeling a new day, the day of hunting.
The corners of the python's mouth were slightly stretched, revealing its fangs, and its huge mouth was drooling.
These dozen fresh blood food ...... It's it.
The south side of the forest.
A chase is unfolding.
"Why don't you run away?"
The four men behind him shouted wantonly, their short knives in their hands, already stained with blood.
The long hair of the person running in front of him was scattered, covering his face, and he couldn't see clearly, but judging from his graceful figure, it should be a woman. At this time, the woman's left arm was cut open, and under the torn clothes, there was white skin and red blood.
She panicked and just ran forward, as if thinking that this would allow her to escape the pursuit of the few men behind her.
There was a jungle in front of her, and the woman ran quickly, jumped over, and disappeared behind the jungle.
Seeing this, the four people who were chasing closely behind hurriedly quickened their pace and jumped up.
"Bang~~!"
"Oops!"
"Ah~"
"It's a trap, this stinky girl set a trap in advance, we fell for it. ”
The woman's figure reappeared, only this time, there was no trace of fear on her face, and the embarrassing wounds on her body were simply treated, except for a wisp of blood that fell from the wound on her forehead that was cut by a branch. At this time, she raised her head slightly, combing and tying up her messy hair, and when she lowered her head again, she smiled, staring at the four people who couldn't move under the trap, with the residual blood on her face, smiling like a flower.
And this amazing smiling face, in the eyes of the four people who fell into the trap, was as terrifying as a ghost.
Yes!!!!
With a few hysterical screams, the chase ended with a real hunter victory.
In the distance, on a towering giant tree, a ninja watched the chase with a blank face, from the beginning to the end, whether it was a sharp turn of events or the merciless killing of the woman, it fell into the ninja's eyes. It wasn't until the woman left his sight that the ninja Shi Shiran took out a notebook from his trouser pocket and recorded it with a pen.
Another battlefield has also entered a white-hot stage at this time.
After a battle between Moron and the strong man with a katana, finally, both of them lost their patience.
The strong man was reluctant to delay because of his old physical injuries and scruples, while Mo Lun felt that he had roughly grasped the information of the other party and was ready to come up with a means to hide it.
Rising accurately scans the surrounding movements, wind speed, environment, opponent's avoidance range and a series of data from crazy to stationary. The next moment, Mo Lun took out several crosses and began to take advantage of his speed to quickly run around the strong man, he was looking for the right time to make sure that he hit the right shot.
Suddenly, Morun's figure flickered, and a cross dart shot at the other party like lightning.
This hand was so tricky that the strong man's hand with the katana did not have time to retract, but he dodged it with a lazy donkey. But before he could stand firm, another cross dart quietly attacked from behind, this time he was prepared, he put away the knife early, put the knife back to the back, and after a crisp sound, the cross dart fell to the ground in vain.
The strong man stood up, smirking wickedly, for he noticed that Moren had stopped, panting.
yes, it's the limit of this little ghost's physical strength, right?
"Well, it's my turn to fight back. The strong man pointed the tip of his knife at Mo Lun, and he had been suppressed and beaten by a young man, and the anger he was holding back was not as calm as his face showed.
At this moment, several black lines suddenly came, and it was a thousand books. The strong man's face changed, and he hurriedly rolled to dodge, he was angry that the other party had so many secret weapons, and the secret technique of the 'Falling Wind Sect' that he had originally planned to use was also miscarried.
There were several muffled sounds in succession, and I saw that three thousand roots entered without ground, leaving only a small section at the top, which showed the great strength.
He looked at the boy again and saw that the other party was covered in sweat and looked very tired.
"This little ghost's physical strength has reached the limit, and the previous attack force is extremely strong, he ...... It shouldn't last long. The strong man was relieved in his heart, and it was not a solution to not be able to get close to the other party all the time.
The strong man cautiously took a few steps forward, slowly approaching, and approached the boy.
The other party took a step back, the strong man's heart moved slightly, and his expression remained unchanged and continued to approach.
Mo Lun retreated again and again, as if the rapid running in a circle just now had consumed most of his physical strength, and at this time he had the intention to retreat, and he lost in momentum.
The strong man is still cautious, and while pressing step by step, he also keeps an eye on the young man's hands, all along, the other party has relied on the darts shot by these hands to attack him, as long as he avoids these hidden weapons, then this battle is almost over.
In the hollow of the tree, the cold voice had not spoken for a long time, and it seemed to be silent, or it might have gone.
But Moren knew that the other party was still there, always there, and never left half a step.
Seeing the strong man walking step by step, retreating one after another, Mo Lun's heart suddenly felt a little inappropriate, not from the warrior in front, but from the shadows.
"Luo, be careful. ”
It was the voice of the man in the hollow of the tree, and only his voice was so cold.
The strong man was stunned when he heard this, and hurriedly stopped, staring at Mo Lun.
Sure enough, as soon as this voice came out, Mo Lun's face also sank, and this was the problem.
"In front of you, that little imp has set a trap. ”
Pitfall?
The strong man was stunned again, because he didn't find any traps at all, and he carefully looked at his surroundings, including the ground, which was in his field of vision. But the strong man did not find the trap, everything was normal.
The strong man was about to ask, but Morun hurriedly jumped backwards and left as fast as he could.
Almost at the same time, the cold voice sounded again.
"In front of you, no, it's in the weeds under your feet, a thousand books, all a thousand books, can't you fool see it?"
This sentence was unceremonious, and even insulted Luo, who was a samurai.
The strong man did not have the slightest anger in his heart, he looked carefully at the grass in front of him, under the sunlight shining through the cracks in the trees, the weeds faintly reflected wisps of silver light, but the light was too faint, and it was covered by the dappled sunlight, so the strong man never found it.
And those silver lights are the cold glow reflected from the tips of thousands of needles.
The moment he found it, a layer of cold sweat broke out all over the strong man's body.
Almost, just a few steps away, the shadow of the body has even been covered in advance, if it weren't for the timely reminder of the old ghost, I'm afraid ......
As soon as he thought of this, the strong man's heart panicked. But then, there is boundless anger, you know, Lao Tzu is a master of swordsmanship, and he has been tricked by a ghost for so long.
I don't know when the imp set the trap, but now that I've found it, it's much easier.
The strong man looked at the young man who was constantly fleeing, and he was about to catch up, and as for the thousand books in the weeds, he only needed to jump lightly to solve the trivial things. In his concept, the trap that is put on the surface is no longer a trap.
Thinking so, the strong man did the same, he suddenly jumped up, the span of the jump was very large, the height was very high, and he thought that even if there were similar traps buried in the back, he could easily avoid them.
However, at the moment when he jumped up, Mo Lun, who had been fleeing, suddenly turned around and pulled out two kunai, and threw them out at the strong man.
"Whoosh~"
"Whoosh~"
With the sound of breaking the air, Kunai shot at the strong warrior Luo who had just taken off into the air.
The strong man's expression changed greatly, he suddenly twisted his waist, changed his direction in mid-air, and fell to the giant tree next to him.
Although this sudden force affected the old wound, it dodged the kunai shot from the outlaw.
The location where he fell was not chosen at random, the giant tree was in front of him and the boy, so the boy would no longer be able to attack him with hidden weapons such as a thousand books and cross darts in any case.
Despite the embarrassment, despite being calculated by the teenager all the time, at this moment in Luo's heart, he couldn't help but feel a little proud.
It's a pity that his smug thoughts had just floated up, and they were ruthlessly ended by a bitter end.
Burst!
In the blind spot of his vision, a bitter flame pierced the strong man's neck, and the red blood flowed out.
Ho~
Ho~
The strong man wanted to breathe, but he let out a residual gasping sound, and at this moment, he finally smelled death......
After struggling for a moment, the strong man fell.
The corpse turned cold.
The old ghost looked at everything that happened in just a few breaths, and felt as if an invisible hand was holding his neck, and his breathing became smaller and smaller, and he was about to suffocate.
The strong man didn't know what was going on, but the old ghost had been keeping an eye on the development of the situation, so how could he not know!
Those two kunai, Luo did hide from it, because at the moment of dodging, the old ghost also cheered from the bottom of his heart and secretly admired. But at the moment when the two of them were happy, the two kunai collided with each other in the air because they lost their target, and the force of the backlash caused the kunai to change their direction and shoot to the left and right respectively, and one of them fell behind the giant tree that the strong man 'Luo' was dodging behind.
So, ruthlessly took his life.
Arc kunai: Both hands throw out the kunai with spinning strength at the same time, and collide with each other after shooting a certain distance, and the reaction force and rotational force generated between the collisions cause the kunai to fall according to the predetermined location, so as to achieve blind spot sniping that normal shooting cannot do. The central meaning is: 'surprise' and 'strong purpose'.
This is a killer feature that Mo Lun has been studying day and night during this time, and it took a long time to complete through chip actuarial calculations and drills. Confident in dealing with ordinary people with one hit, it also has a surprise effect against ninjas who have 'Zoro' - Kunai Secret Technique.
Requirements and defects, the user must have extremely high computing power and cannot use it frequently. Frequent use can lead to severe damage to the wrist and a long recovery time. It is equivalent to Mo Lun forcibly cultivating any of the four forms of physical technique at this time, and if he wants to recover quickly, he can only find a doctor for treatment.
This is also the reason why Mo Lun didn't use the tricky arc kunai at the beginning, and only through layers of calculation and design to ensure the timing of one-hit killing, he used it once. He didn't know how long this black trial would last, and he couldn't guarantee that he would always be able to face criminals and trialists like Luo and Old Ghost, and if he wanted to become the last 25 survivors, he had to do everything he could to retain his strength.
In this way, we can deal with the next unknown crisis.
