Chapter 21: The Black Magician

Chen Mo and Zhao Ling'er walked out of the store and found a black figure walking in mid-air on the road, slowly walking towards them.

He wears a black magician's outfit, a black cloak, a black flat top hat, shiny black leather shoes, and a white half of the Phantom of the Opera mask on his face.

In addition to seeing that the other party is a man, other aspects are a little mysterious, and even the hands are covered with white gloves.

Chen Mo sighed, this is the style of the villain in his cognition. In comparison, the small characters who didn't enter the stream just now were simply inferior.

"I'm sorry, but we're not really interested in the evil camp. 」

Chen Mo and Zhao Ling'er are deeply involved with the good camp, even if they are not hunted down by the evil camp, how dare they stick to it.

"It's a pity...... magician said with regret in his tone.

But Chen Mo didn't dare to be careless at all.

From the experience of many movies, anime, and games, the more stylish the villain is, the more sick he is. It's still a mixture of mental illness and middle two diseases, and there is no cure.

"But I've always believed that it's either friend or foe. So if we become enemies in the future, please die now. 」

Before the other party finished speaking, Chen Mo sensed many filamentous foreign objects entering his spiritual position and rushed towards him and Zhao Ling'er. Chen Mo, who was prepared, pulled Zhao Ling'er and withdrew from the encirclement area of the filament earlier. I don't know what it is, but it's better not to get it.

The magician was also a little surprised to see that the filament manipulation he was good at was actually dodged in advance.

"Huh, it doesn't seem to be a trash fish that can be disposed of at will, it's really rude. 」

The magician bowed gracefully, then pulled a magic staff from his sleeve and pointed it to the ground with one hand.

In an instant, a strange huge guillotine appeared, and Chen Mo and Zhao Ling'er were under the guillotine's knife.

It's just that in Chen Mo's spiritual force field, he didn't feel the existence of the guillotine, but there was a kind of power around him that felt very bad, and once the two of them moved, they would be hit.

Zhao Ling'er also didn't react and let Chen Mo hold his hand, not knowing whether he found out that something was wrong, or if he didn't care at all.

The guillotine's torture knife fell, and when it touched the top of Chen Mo's head, the guillotine disappeared, but the figure of the Demon Beastmaster shook a little.

Chen Mo guessed that it was probably a kind of magic that would backfire after failure.

"Hehe, I'm underestimating the two. The good camp?"

"Neutral. 」

Chen Mo knew that if it was kindness, today would probably be a fight to the death. The guy on the other side doesn't look in a normal mental state, but most of the villains do.

"Well, excuse me. 」

Two abilities in succession, which were cracked by the other party's indifference, and in his scruples, the black magician didn't want to turn these two characters who were neutral camps into enemies.

The magician also turned around neatly and left, not worried that Chen Mo would take the opportunity to attack him.

"That man...... It's not simple. Zhao Ling'er said.

"I don't know if it's a lost person or a fantasist. 」

From Raman's side, I know that the average fantasy race can still become strong through its own efforts and opportunities. It's just that the innate conditions are not as good as those of the lost and the fantastic, and the fantasy race, like the lost, has only one life, and the chance of appearing the strongest is naturally very small.

"Let's go, let's go to the bookstore. 」

Chen Mo took Zhao Ling'er and left, but he still watched his surroundings very carefully. After all, the other party is a character of the evil camp, although he doesn't look like a person who will go back on his word, but in the end, he is an evil villain, and he knows if the other party will suddenly have a brain convulsion.

On the way, the two passed by a gold jewelry store, and Chen Mo saw that it had not been patronized, so he went in and ransacked it. Chen Mo did not plan to take these gold back to the real world for use, but was ready to return to Fengming City to trade with Raman.

Regarding the problem of Chen Mo's physique, Raman said that this is easy to solve, as long as the primary physique strengthening elixir and body forging exercises can be significantly improved.

The main reason is that Chen Mo's physical fitness is like ordinary people, and it is easy to improve. However, with the strengthening of the physique, the potions required for improvement will become more and more advanced, and the price will naturally become more and more expensive.

Chen Mo used the Eternal Great Library to learn a lot of gold refining techniques and recipes from Raman, as long as he was given time to understand and learn, it would not be difficult for Chen Mo to become an alchemist, and he would be able to make this potion by himself in the future.

But whether it is the purchase of finished products or pharmaceutical materials, the key is to have sufficient funds.

Money is not everything, but no money is everything, whether it is in the real world or here, it is universal.

Fortunately, Chen Mo is in this world, and it is much more convenient to make money, whether it is fighting monsters and selling equipment, exploring the land of illusions, or becoming an alchemist, he has a lot of income. It is completely incomparable with the real world, the bitter working days.

"Ling'er, if you see what you are interested in, take it yourself. 」

After arriving at the bookstore, Chen Mo knew that Zhao Linger could understand Chinese, so he asked her to look everywhere by herself, and she went to find those books with strong professionalism.

Raman is interested in today's technology, especially electronics. If Chen Mo hadn't stared closely, his mobile phone would have been dismantled by Raman long ago.

Therefore, for example, all the books related to science now, Chen Mo stuffed them into the block space when he saw them, especially the kind of books whose titles looked powerful, but he couldn't let go of books that he didn't understand at all.

After going around and seeing that he had nothing missing, Chen Mo turned back to find Zhao Ling'er.

I saw Zhao Ling'er holding an unopened novel, looking at it curiously, the title of the book was "Ali Buda Age Festival." 」

Chen Mo almost weakened his legs, and hurriedly pretended to be calm and picked up the book in his hand and put it back on the shelf.

"This kind of book is not for girls. 」

Sadako's version of Zhao Ling'er was stunned, with eyes exposed in her long hair, looking like she was begging for an explanation.

But this Chen Mo really didn't know how to talk to her......

At the last stop, the two went to a store that specialized in anime merchandise and models.

That is, the last time Ji'er recruited and replaced the wonderful frog seed, Chen Mo had some ideas. Although he didn't know if he had this qualification, Chen Mo still wanted to give it a try.

If only I could summon the characters in the fairy sword......

This is the way that Chen Mo currently thinks of to help Zhao Ling'er. However, Chen Mo didn't know if he could succeed, so he didn't tell Zhao Ling'er, lest he give her hope and then bring her despair, which only increased the damage.

Looking at the dazzling array of models in the display case, there were men and women, monsters and demons, Chen Mo slowly identified their origins one by one, and introduced them to Zhao Ling'er as far as he knew.

The romantic love story of youth, the funny and bloody campus comedy, and the simple story of the innocent little Lori that heals the soul.

The characters introduced by Chen Mo all have one thing in common, whether they are men or women, they are all just ordinary human beings.

Fantasy characters are pathetic, but fantasy characters without power are even more pitiful.

They have little to no power to protect themselves, and are easily killed by monsters in the Phantom Lands. But fantasy characters don't really die, and after being reborn, they have to face the same situation.

Fortunately and sadly, they don't have those memories.

It wasn't until someone helped them, or they were lucky enough to get out of that cruel cycle.

Raman only briefly mentioned it, but Chen Mo easily figured it out. When he told Zhao Ling'er, Zhao Ling'er just looked at those models silently and was stunned.

"Why is there such a cruel world? 」

Zhao Ling'er asked incomprehensibly.

This reminded Chen Mo of Raman's words, the gods are also the origin of fantasy characters.

"This world can even be created by 'gods', perhaps it is an unknown existence beyond 'gods'. 」

Chen Mo sighed.

"Perhaps...... It's all fake, like a dream?"

Zhao Linger said on a whim.

Chen Mo knew that this little girl was starting to escape from reality, so he grabbed her hand and raised it.

"Do you think this seems fake?"

Chen Mo's hands were heavy or light, playing with Zhao Ling'er's little hands. Gradually, Zhao Linger's little ears, which were half-exposed outside her long hair, began to turn red.

"That's the same?"

Chen Mo brushed away Zhao Linger's long hair with his other hand, and gently stroked Zhao Linger's face with his palm, his fingers slid over her pink and delicate lips.

At this time, Zhao Ling'er, who was red-faced but expressionless, finally showed a panicked look. But he was just nervous, but he didn't make a move to stop Chen Mo.

"Don't be cranky, a lot of times things aren't something we can choose. If you had a choice, you would have run away and die with the Water Demon Beast?"

Chen Mo didn't make any further moves, but took his hand back.

If it was a more intimate act, Zhao Ling'er would probably acquiesce, because her mind was already empty, and it was easy for people to take advantage of it. After losing a relationship, the fastest way to recover is to find another new relationship to sustenance.

Zhao Ling'er is in such an empty state, so she will follow Chen Mo closely every day, just like a drowning person will instinctively cling to driftwood.

Chen Mo also knew about Zhao Ling'er's situation, but he didn't want to take advantage of others. He's not a young man who doesn't care about anything when he comes on impulse. If the two really have fate to come together in the future, this matter will become a barrier between the two in the future.

In addition, Chen Mo is very skeptical about his indifferent emotions, whether he can really learn what love is. Zhao Linger couldn't let go of Li Xiaoyao and Li Yiru in her heart.

"You're not ready, and I'm not ready. 」

Chen Mo gently hugged Zhao Ling'er and said in her ear.
