Chapter 11: The Age of Great Adventures
The two fought together again.
The serious fighting Wayne unleashed his sword quickly and treacherously, changing the antelope to hang its horns, fully demonstrating the skill and awareness of a brilliant swordsman. Every knife will hit, bringing a puddle of blood on Li Mo's body.
Li Mo is like a tenacious stone, dealing with Wayne with his bare hands, no matter how many wounds he has on his body, he never falls, and gradually enters a wonderful state, and the tricks used by Wayne are quickly absorbed and mastered by him, so that the tricks used by Wayne cannot be effective again.
This made Wayne more and more frightened.
When the two of them fought in this empty courtyard for nearly half an hour, he suddenly withdrew his knife, scanned the muddy ground sprinkled with blood nearby in disbelief, and then looked at Li Mo's unintact body, and could no longer maintain a calm and calm mentality, and shouted: "After so much blood, why don't you die?"
Li Mo was in a frenzied fighting state, how could he listen to his ramblings, put on a strange fighting stance that he had evolved from Wayne's moves, and quickly pounced.
Wayne's face turned pale, as if to verify what he thought, he punched him in the chest, and plunged the long knife into Li Mo's heart at a tricky angle.
No blood flowed out, because Li Mo's blood had already dried up. Li Mo's fist slammed into Wayne's chest.
Even if the heart was pierced, it couldn't stop his attack.
Wayne stared in disbelief at the hilt of the knife that sank into Li Mo's chest, and his guess became a reality.
There really is-
"Immortal!"
A soft exclamation floated out of nowhere, confirming his suspicion.
Wayne's face changed suddenly when he heard this, and the warrior's intuition gave birth to a strong sense of crisis in his heart, and he suddenly stretched out his bat-like wings and soared into the sky, but the upward momentum suddenly stopped.
Li Mo grabbed his legs from below.
"Good fit. β
The voice from before sounded again, but it was very close, crisp and pleasant.
A green shadow swept past Wayne, who was frozen in mid-air, and the latter's large head flew high with an angry and fearful expression.
The headless corpse was torn to pieces by Li Mo.
The person who made the sneak attack fell to the ground, stood quietly with his arms around his chest, and after Li Mo finished venting, he took advantage of the situation to catch Li Mo's fainted body, and laughed: "Malka, do you see, it's really an immortal body, it's really an unexpected joy, if this mission is successfully completed, our Earth Wolf Team will definitely be able to return to Group A." Malka, it's not enough to destroy the corpse. Always wait for Miss Ben to remind you that you big idiot can't use your brain. β
As soon as this person's voice fell, from the abandoned metallurgical workshop, a male figure with a height of nearly three meters suddenly walked out, and replied in a thunderous voice: "Kailina, don't point fingers at me, the captain said, you and I cooperate with each other in this operation, and no one commands anyone." β
"You idiot, I haven't heard of a general being outside the military order. Miss Ben is going to be able to fight with flames, and she needs to chew her tongue with you stupid wood. β
"My Flame Fighting Qi will only be used in battleβ"
"Fight you big-headed ghost, you have to be verbose again, next time I get the task of acting alone, I will never take you out, do you believe it or not?"
"Okay. β
The crimson flames erupted suddenly, burning half of the factory to the ground. In the firelight, a slightly heavy green shadow soared into the air, and angrily scolded: "Malka, you are really a brainless idiot, can you wait for me to go far away next time you release your fighting spirit, and besides, you made such a big move, do you want to set off fireworks or do you want to attract others to see your corpse destroyed here......
Three days later, in a tall mansion in the east of Black Mist City, Li Mo was wrapped in bandages and lay quietly on a soft big bed, staring at the ceiling without saying a word.
The coals in the fireplace are blazing, transferring heat to every corner of the room through metal pipes buried in the walls. Even the cold night can't take the warmth out of the house.
Li Mo had never slept in such a soft bed, and he had never lived in such a warm house. For as long as he can remember, his only luxury is to fill his stomach. This is true even after work. Being able to extravagantly eat an extra compressed biscuit at a meal can bring him happiness all day long.
Happiness is as simple as that, so sad.
Now, there is enough food in the house to make all kinds of fine food, and he uses three sky-high recovery potions a day, each of which can be used to rebuild a St. Mary's church.
But these riches that he once dreamed of did not make Li Mo feel the slightest happiness.
Because of the bad news that Karina brought back: Angel is gone.
Angel vanished from the city out of thin air.
Karina's point of view is that Angel has left Black Mist City, and if she can come here, there will be a way to get out of here. In Karina's opinion, the rudimentary defenses of the small wasteland city of Black Mist City are not as good as the fence walls.
Li Mo smiled bitterly when he heard this, the iron walls that had imprisoned him for more than 20 years were so unbearable in the eyes of others, how failed he was in life.
Kailina is the one who saved Li Mo that day, a petite and hot-tempered beautiful Lori, after getting along for a long time, you will know that this girl with a red face and red eyes and a big smile like a little fox is actually a chatterbox, and she will talk endlessly when she has the opportunity. In her team, only the taciturn Marka can take her breaks, and often go on missions together.
Malka belongs to a mutant race, the Orcs. The human body, the face of a lion, is nearly three meters tall, the muscles of the whole body are tangled, the hole is powerful, like a rampage tank when fighting, and usually likes to sleep.
They belong to a newly emerging treasure hunting organization, Darklight, which specializes in digging pre-Big Bang ruins, searching for a variety of valuable items, and occasionally taking on treasure hunts from clients.
A month ago, Karina found a dilapidated map out of nowhere, and after two days of research in the library, she insisted that the treasure recorded on the map was actually the location of the legendary powerhouse, so she took Malka along the route recorded on the map, traveled thousands of miles, and came to the Black Mist City.
I don't want to just enter the Black Mist City and encounter a big battle like Modi summoning the demon god to descend. This originally had nothing to do with the two of them looking for the fallen treasure of the legendary powerhouse, but the place where Li Mo and Wayne chose to fight happened to be the foothold of the two.
After the two who watched the play with relish were sure of Li Mo's immortality, Karina was not calm at first, and immediately jumped out and killed Wayne with a clear camp and saved Li Mo.
It can also be seen from this point that this Lori, who is good at selling cute and weird things, is not a soft-hearted master.
You must know that there are two authoritative lists in the treasure hunting world.
One is the "Golden Guild List", which judges the strength of well-known treasure hunting organizations, and the second only list after the "Golden Guild List" is "Great Explorer", which lists only 100 top treasure hunters.
The rankings on these two lists ultimately determine the credibility, prestige, strength and even benefit distribution of the treasure hunting organization.
Among the top 10 treasure hunters in last year's "Great Explorer", there are three with immortality abilities.
Although Darkglow was named the best new treasure hunting organization last year, the gap between it and the old treasure hunting organization is still very large, ranking only sixty-three on the "Golden Guild List", and the 100 top treasure hunters discharged by "Great Explorer" are only Ida the leader of Darkglow, ranking fifty-three.
Although Karina is not a wise man with perfect calculations, she is not a fool who does not understand the world, and if she still watches Li Mo be killed after knowing that he has the ability of immortal body, it is as stupid as sitting and watching a mountain of gold slide into the sea and remain indifferent.
The immortal is definitely a scarce talent in the treasure hunting organization, and with a little training, it is possible to hit the list of "Great Explorers" and further enhance the strength and status of Dark Shine. Even if you can't make the list, doing tasks with a partner who has an immortal body is a light, joyful and enjoyable thing.
As for Wayne's identity and back*, what Black Fog City, what Black Prison Machine, she didn't care.
Like an elephant cares about trampling a few ants to death while walking?
Although she is not an elephant, Black Mist City is indeed a tiny ant.
Li Mo's gaze withdrew from the ceiling and fell on the two people beside the bed who were full of expectant eyes, to be precise, a person whose eyes were sparkling and containing anticipation, as if looking at a golden Buddha statue of Kailina and a Malka who was sitting on the ground and sleeping soundly.
"Uncle, how is it, have you decided?" Karina's eyes lit up and she immediately asked, "Trust me, as long as you join Dark Shine, your life will shine brightly, and you will achieve extraordinary achievements, wealth, power, and women." We were named the Best New Treasure Hunt Organization last year, and the growth potential is huge. If you join Dark Shine at this time, you will be a veteran member in the future, not only can you enjoy the best benefits, but also have some precious privileges......"
Her current face is like instigating others to join bad organizations.
Li Mo held his forehead and said with a wry smile: "You stop first." I'm not an uncle, I'm twenty-four years old. β
"You look like you're forty-two. Hey, uncle, the miserable life is really a pig-killing knife, torturing a high-spirited young man like an old man. Have you ever thought about changing the status quo, have you worried about the status quo in the dead of night, have you worried that your future life will remain the same? Uncle, choice is more important than effort, action is more important than decision, we are recruiting-"
"Stop!" Li Mo shouted.
Kailina immediately shut up, staring at Li Mo with big watery eyes.
"This-" Li Mo Khan, tossed by this little girl, he didn't know what to say.
"Uncle, are you trying to tell me something?" said Karina.
Li Mo pinched his eyebrows, sorted out his thoughts, and said, "Thank you very much for saving your life, and for giving me such an expensive recovery potion." and did not threaten me to die for you, but told me the truth and let me make my own choice. Although I don't have much college knowledge, I still understand the truth of gratitude and retribution. Therefore, this time, whether you want to go up the sword mountain or go down to the sea of fire, I will go with you. β
Karina heard Li Mo speak so solemnly, and hurriedly waved her hand and said: "Uncle, it's not so serious, you will understand how easy and pleasant it is to go on a mission with us." Hee-hee. β
After that, the little girl secretly glanced at Malka, who was asleep, and muttered to herself in her heart: Is it the so-called big man and big wisdom?
Before Li Mo came to his senses, Karina and Malka had just had a heated argument. Karina's point of view is to bluff Li Mo with a random reason, and after entering that place, let him charge ahead. And Marca insisted on being honest about the reason, otherwise he and Karina would part ways.
In the end, Kailina, who "focuses on the overall situation", compromised with Malka, and after Li Mo sobered up, she roughly told Li Mo what they were going to do.
"Is the immortal body an eternal death?" Li Mo suddenly asked.
"How so? Karina denied, "There are many forms of immortality, the absolute protection of the god of light, the rebirth of the blood of Nirvana, the immortality of the soul of the demon god believer, well, it is like you, and the immortality after becoming a legend, etc., these can be seriously damaged in the flesh without endangering life." And there are many ways to completely kill the immortal body, take your soul immortality as an example, just destroy your flesh and blood, and then sprinkle the light holy water on your skull, you can completely wipe you out, of course, this remote and desolate small place, it is impossible to have such a high-grade light holy water, and the precious light holy water will not be used on you, uh, including a little person like me. β
Through the conversation with Kailina in the past two days, Li Mo has understood that the remote and desolate small place that Kailina is talking about does not refer to Black Mist City, but to the area where Black Mist City and hundreds of cities similar to Black Mist City are located - the abandoned wasteland.
Abandoned!
From the name alone, you can tell what a miserable place this is, and Black Mist City is just one of the hundreds of cities in this place. And Li Mo once thought that the Black Mist City would always be high above the ruling family, but in Karina's eyes, they were frogs sitting in a well and watching the sky.
Perhaps the Dominator family is well aware of their current situation, but in order to maintain their rule, they block the information of the outside world, obscure the minds of the people, and trap the people of Black Mist City within the walls for them to drive.
"The world is so big, you should go and see it. Karina asked with a smile on her face, her expression and tone like that of a wolf grandmother who kidnapped a child with candy.
"No matter how big the world is, it has nothing to do with me. I'll go out if necessary. Li Mo glanced at Karina angrily.
It's a lot of fun to get along with these two people. He could always hear strange things and opinions from the words of the two people, and perhaps these things were as ordinary to the two of them as common sense of life.
"People must have something to pursue, and people who do not pursue and have no goals also have no future. Lee, you see, in the future, I will definitely become the top treasure hunter in the top 100 on the "Great Adventurer" list. β
"The world we live in is called Earth. Before the Big Bang, it was a beautiful blue planet, but after the final battle, no one knows what it will become. It is said that in order to create a stable battlefield, before the final battle, the gods and demons used their great magical powers to pull one plane after another to the earth, expand its area, and stabilize its origin. But it is still impossible to escape the fate of destruction. β
"Black Mist City is located on the abandoned wasteland, the abandoned wasteland is only a part of the southern end of the Great Border Wilderness, in the north of the Great Border Wasteland, there is a vast plain with an area of more than 100 million miles, called Middle Earth, the Middle Earth Plain has tens of thousands of countries, each country is thousands of times stronger than the Black Mist City, Middle Earth further north has the sea of evil spirits, the endless water tribe inhabited, Middle Earth to the east borders the boundless water, and thousands of fierce beasts are raging and galloping; γ β
Karina's nagging nature did not change, and when she found an opportunity, she instilled the principles of success learning in Li Mo, and encouraged Li Mo to return to the Dark Shine Headquarters with them. And once Li Mo got tired of listening to it, she would deflect the topic and describe the colorful and gorgeous outside world to Li Mo, so that Li Mo understood a lot of things about the outside world.
