However, Mo was now in her hands, in the bag.
Chapter 40
Silence stands amid the noisy voices, growing secretly in the shadows of the heart.
Leaving the noisy crowd, Hua found Himiko at bedtime on the third night, the deadline.
Himiko: "You're still awake. You came to see me so late. It seems you have made up your mind."
Faced with Himiko's judgment of himself, Hua was silent for a while, then slowly raised his head.
The emerald eyes seemed to be filled with a pale color, spreading out like mist.
Hua: "If we kill all the Honkai beasts, will everyone be able to survive?"
Himiko: "You want to embark on the path of saving the world? But saving the world is not easy, and it cannot be done by one person. The enemies we have to face are not just Honkai beasts and death warriors, but also the existence of Herrscher. These files will be provided to you after you become a warrior."
"You're right. If we kill all the enemies, everyone can survive."
"But this is too difficult to do alone."
magnificent:"……"
Himiko: "I can only give you my advice about the future, but if you want to get ahead of everyone else, I will help you to the best of my ability, and then watch you go further than any of us."
Hua: "Thank you..."
Himiko: "You're welcome, but your eyes tell me that you still have doubts. Are you wondering why I chose you in the first place?"
Hua: "Well, I've been thinking a lot these days, both about the future and the past. But I still can't understand why the captain wanted to get involved in Canghai City just for someone who had nothing to do with me."
"Although the captain told the other captains that this was to obtain unknown intelligence, I don't think that's the case."
Himiko looked at Hua with interest. She could clearly feel that the child had undergone some visible changes, especially in his mentality.
I just don't know whether this change is good or bad.
Himiko lowered his eyes, glanced at the purple and black lines on his wrist that were mostly covered, and a faint smile appeared on his face.
"You'll understand later."
"That day will not be long for you or me, but now, it is too early for you to answer this question."
"I understand. Thank you, Captain, for clearing up my confusion." Hua left Himiko's room. She had already decided to become a warrior against Honkai.
Without any burdens or worries, she can focus on fighting the enemy until the day she dies in battle, letting the punishment of her unfortunate fate befall her.
And before that...
Hua walked into his room, which was filled with many bottles filled with liquid for storing corpses, which contained Mo's organs and limbs.
There were scattered pieces of clothing on the table.
In the dim light, Hua sat on a chair, picked up the needle and thread, and tirelessly and patiently pieced together the pieces of clothes, trying to restore them to their original appearance.
It was late at night, Hua turned around and looked at Mo in the bottle.
A distorted idea came to my mind.
————Three days ago, in the center of Canghai City, in a martial arts gym.
"Is it my imagination? Why do I feel like there are more and more Honkai beasts, and they are all coming towards me."
Li Mo stared thoughtfully at the Honkai beasts that were attacking from all directions like a tide, and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
Mobius said that the collapse will gradually spread to the surrounding areas over time, and the center of the collapse will change from "no one can survive" at the beginning to "perhaps someone can survive."
In the center of the Honkai outbreak, almost no normal person can survive. The excessive number of Honkai beasts and the constant appearance of dead men and Honkai beasts mean that no matter how lucky you are, you will always encounter them.
In addition, cities will collapse in an instant, and few people can survive a major earthquake.
Unless you are not a normal person.
Canghai City was obviously at the center of the collapse, which explained why he was trapped under the building before he could escape.
However, after so much time has passed, the concentration of Honkai energy has dropped a lot, but the number of Honkai beasts and dead soldiers has increased, as if they were attracted by something.
"Forget it, no matter how many come, they are just trash."
"That's right, the small-time Honkai beast~!"
Li Mo raised his head and saw that the martial arts hall was just two hundred meters ahead. In front of him suddenly appeared a huge Temple-level Collapse Beast.
Li Mo didn't know the level of the Honkai Beast, and he didn't need to know.
Just as Li Mo was about to sprint and knock down the opponent, a lightsaber burst out from the halo around the Temple-level Honkai Beast, like a cannonball, which was only slightly blocked by the flesh and blood body, and easily pierced through Li Mo's chest, pushing him to the wall of the house behind and hanging on it.
The lightsaber glowed with a bright and dazzling purple-black light, flickering.
It can be stained by the bright red blood that flows out when the chest is pierced.
In an instant, the lightsaber and Li Mo's eyes dimmed together.
But Li Mo's eyes quickly regained their original brilliance, and even became more brilliant and dazzling.
"That's really... an incredibly warm way to greet someone."
After regaining consciousness, Li Mo pulled out the completely faded lightsaber from his chest, landed steadily on the ground, and threw the lightsaber aside.
The halo around the Temple-level Honkai Beast kept flickering. It wanted to recall the lightsaber, but the faded lightsaber on the ground never responded, as if it had lost connection with it.
"Then you must accept my kindness with gratitude."
In an instant, Li Mo rushed to the front of the Temple-level Honkai Beast and grabbed the head of the Honkai Beast, which was similar to a brain, with one hand.
As time went by and the force continued to increase, the head of the Temple-level Honkai Beast was like the cracks that kept appearing in the earth during an earthquake, with faint signs of cracking.
"Roar——!"
At the end of its rope, the Temple-level Honkai Beast roared like a beast.
Li Mo didn't take it seriously and said casually, "Just yelling?"
Soon, after the deafening roar ended, the ground shook violently. Li Mo looked back and saw a dark group of beasts running towards him.
"So you're calling for help. After all, being alone with just you and me is a bit boring~"
Li Mo swung the huge Temple-level Honkai beast like a hammer.
The scene was as strange as an ant lifting a human head.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Li Mo grabbed the Temple-level Honkai Beast and smashed it into the ground like he was hoeing the earth.
The Temple-level Honkai Beast was finally enraged and fought to the death. Regardless of the risk of having its head crushed, it projected all its strength onto the light circle. Suddenly, light swords flew out in all directions and pierced towards Li Mo's head.
The next second, Li Mo dodged the lightsaber's attack by leaning sideways, and then punched the Temple-level Honkai Beast in the body, creating a hole through which he could see the scene behind.
"Phew...that was a close call. I almost got tricked by you."
"Then it's your turn next. I declare that you are surrounded by me alone!"
Li Mo picked up a sickle from the assassins on the ground. Although he didn't know where these assassins got the sickles from, they were quite useful.
After a while, the rushing Honkai beasts and assassins were all wiped out by Li Mo alone. The purple liquid, suspected to be the blood of the Honkai beasts, splashed onto Li Mo's face. Because it splashed too much, most of Li Mo's face was covered with purple blood.
"Looking for someone, looking for someone."
After the massacre, Li Mo did not forget his business, and even his character was not affected at all.
It was as if this battle was just an ordinary game and he didn't take it seriously at all.
Sparks of fire were ignited in every corner of the martial arts gym, but Li Mo had no time to care for them or put them out.
When you enter the martial arts hall, you will see a building standing in the middle of the hall, separating the two parts of the hall.
Li Mo first searched carefully in places he could go, but found no trace of Hua's father.
The collapse happened suddenly, and the martial arts gym was not far away from him, so there was no reason why he didn't react in time. Hua's father reacted and escaped.
Of course, it would be best if Hua's father could leave safely on his own.
But the probability is so small that it can almost be ignored.
The greater probability is that he was buried before leaving the martial arts gym.
Ordinary people at the center of the collapse have no chance of survival.
"It's in the back... Looks like it'll take some time to go around."
Li Mo is very self-aware when it comes to a building, and he can't lift it yet.
Li Mo walked around and came to the back of the martial arts hall, but still couldn't find anyone in the lobby or guest rooms.
"Strange, where are you going?"
Suddenly Li Mo thought of something. Hua's father was not like him. It didn't matter if he didn't eat for many days. But as an ordinary person, he would die if he didn't eat for two or three days.
So Li Mo walked towards the basement where food was stored.
The basement is a relatively extreme place, because once an enemy enters, you either kill it or be killed by it, after all, there is only one entrance and exit.
Or even if the collapse can dissipate, the people inside will still die.
Because the Honkai energy cannot leave or spread to other places, it can only linger and accumulate in the basement. Over time, the people inside will be eroded by the Honkai energy, and there are only two possible outcomes: direct death or becoming a dead soldier.
Li Mo could only pray that the basement was not discovered by the Honkai beasts and the dead soldiers, and that the Honkai energy did not escape.
However, this expectation is extremely unrealistic, especially the latter, because the basement is only used to store some wine and food that require ancient brewing methods, so the passages in the basement are not hidden, and energy is pervasive and difficult to isolate.
Sure enough, the moment Li Mo entered the basement, he smelled an extremely strong stench of a rotting corpse.
"Oops……"
A terrible guess vaguely emerged in Li Mo's mind, and his steps became faster and faster. Soon Li Mo reached the deepest part of the basement.
Deep shadows shrouded every corner, and a damp air filled the air, freezing cold.
A row of faded wooden cabinets stood quietly, filled with all kinds of jars and bottles.
What appeared before Li Mo was a corpse that was beginning to rot.
It leaned against a wooden cabinet, densely packed maggots wriggling on the stinking rotten meat, and a few young mice gnawed at its drooping hands.
Beside his hands was a pile of opened wine and food, but they had become moldy and grown disgusting black hair.
The clothes on his body proved that the body was none other than Hua's father.
He was lucky enough to hide in the basement when the collapse broke out, so he had no worries about food and drink.
These holes on the body are not fatal injuries, but just traces of rats gnawing on them after death.
Hua's father was not found by the Honkai beasts and the assassins, nor did he starve to death due to lack of food.
Instead, his entire body was corroded by the dissipated, untransferable energy of collapse, and he ended his life in a dark basement without becoming a dead warrior to harm others.
Or maybe, he knew that some people would become dead after being corroded by the Honkai, so he didn't leave the basement and wanted to trap himself here.
"…Sorry, I'm late."
Li Mo walked up to the corpse and said solemnly.
Maybe this wasn't his fault, but if he had been by Hua's father's side when the Honkai broke out, he might have been able to lead him out of the siege.
"..."
Li Mo didn't know how to tell Hua this news. Death is death, and no one can be brought back to life. Even if someone is brought back to life, that person may not be the original self.
However, Hua may not be able to accept it, and she will blame all these bitter fruits and tragedies on her own misfortune.
Although she was indeed a bit unlucky.
Thinking of this, Li Mo turned around and prepared to leave, but suddenly, his pupils darkened for a moment, and then he turned around mechanically and walked straight to the corpse.
He bit his finger and let the blood drip into Hua's father's mouth.
Soon, the life mechanism began to function again, fresh blood flowed into the dried-up blood vessels, the damaged flesh gradually healed, the lines of collapse and erosion quickly disappeared, and even the smelly body gradually lost its strong corpse stench as time passed.
Five minutes, ten minutes, thirty minutes, two hours...
Li Mo quietly watched the changes in Hua's father. Two hours later, his body had completely revived, and his breathing, pulse, heartbeat, and body temperature had all returned to normal levels, but he still hadn't woken up.
vegetable?
Li Mo didn't understand why this happened, but being a vegetable was better than being dead.
