Facing Kallen's questioning, Li Mo couldn't refuse such a cute face coming closer.
It's strange, he doesn't seem to be a lustful person.
It turns out that I was influenced by Otto's pure love attribute!
"It's the form of existence itself. This is the essential difference between pseudo-humans and humans. As for more, I haven't conducted a systematic analysis, and without experimental samples, I can't draw more accurate conclusions. Even if I do, they are just guesses."
Li Mo answered truthfully.
Kallen thought hard for a long, long time, so long that the stars in the sky seemed to have moved.
"So how do we identify the fake people in the crowd?"
Kallen looked at Li Mo seriously, waiting for an answer.
Li Mo thought about it and realized that it was difficult to find a way to identify such a completely unknown thing.
But as Mei said, after losing his support, he will be more cautious than before, and his way of thinking will also change to a certain extent, becoming more comprehensive.
Instead of holding a strange pistol and thinking: I can try this and shoot if I see a ghost.
That's a little dangerous, but it's okay, I have a weird pistol.
Li Mo recalled the contents of the book and said:
"It's very simple."
“You can tell by the animal’s reaction.”
"Just like the description in the book, in addition to their own behavior, animals are very sensitive to pseudo-humans."
"As time goes on, the fake person's disguise will only become more and more realistic, until it reaches a point where the real person is completely indistinguishable."
"But animals don't. They rely more on instinct and don't have much intelligence or thinking ability. Ghosts... uh, pseudo-humans probably also act according to some "special" rules, and animals are much more sensitive to these rules than humans."
"From that passage in the book, we can also tell that no animals approached us on the way back, which means that the animals already knew—"
"There's a fake person mixed in with the crowd..."
As soon as the words fell, Karen felt a chill on her back. She hugged Li Mo even tighter, muttering, "Don't, don't say anymore... Let's go to sleep, um, sleep! Don't listen to this weird story."
After sleeping, Kallen curled up in the quilt and buried her face in Li Mo's legs.
Li Mo could still feel Karen's body trembling slightly, as if she was really scared by him.
He wanted to joke with Kallen again, but Li Mo also felt very tired.
He didn't rush to fall asleep immediately, but waited until Kallen's breathing became normal before relaxing his vigilance.
He couldn't stay up late, but he couldn't leave the campfire.
As of now, Kallen is a normal person.
It would be a bit difficult for Li Mo to survive in the primeval forest alone.
Not to mention wild beasts and poisonous insects, a breakthrough-level Honkai beast alone could easily kill him.
The way back was no longer available, it was very easy to get lost in the primeval forest.
Unless I'm lucky enough to see Francis tomorrow, I have to plan to live here for a long time.
His consciousness gradually blurred and Li Mo fell asleep.
When he woke up, Kallen was nowhere to be seen.
Li Mo stood up, patted the leaves on the quilt, and looked into the distance. A thin layer of white mist appeared in the woods.
The bonfire in front of me has burned out.
"The source of the strangeness is in these woods. Currently, I have traveled through time and space into Otto's body for unknown reasons, but I don't feel any discomfort. I even feel that this identity is the real me."
Zhuang Zhou dreamed of butterflies, and butterflies dreamed of Zhuang Zhou.
Who is the real illusion?
But how can something that is illusory be real?
"Although I'm a bit cold-blooded, as Otto Apokalis, I have the ability to mobilize some people. Even if they don't want to, they have to obey my orders due to their status."
“Not much, but enough.”
Li Mo looked back at the mysterious and unknown forest, which must be full of dangers, given his current physical level and zero tolerance for error.
Triggering a rule means death, let alone a completely unknown rule.
"We cannot get involved, but we cannot take the lives of others unless they are willing to die."
"It's really troublesome..."
Li Mo covered his eyes helplessly. He clearly felt the change in his mental quality.
In the past, even in a completely normal state, he would only think about protecting himself, completing the ritual with the highest efficiency, and dealing with the weirdness.
Li Mo didn’t care about the dead, no matter how many people died.
All he had to consider was whether the weirdness could be dealt with effectively and whether he could return alive.
But after living in the orphanage as a guardian for more than ten years, the company of his lover and the experience of educating children made his sharp spear very blunt and his hard heart softened.
From a cold and indifferent personality who only knows how to kill, to an Asian male protagonist who needs to think carefully and try his best not to let anyone get hurt...
Li Mo pointed at himself and asked himself doubtfully: "Me? The male protagonist of Yasashi? Tsk..."
Li Mo kicked the tree, he had to be ruthless enough.
The sheath is placed on the blunt end to protect the sharp sword.
Use money to exchange for life.
Li Mo has already made up his mind to send here anyone he dislikes.
Suddenly, a human face appeared from nowhere, scaring Li Mo so much that he fell to the ground.
"Ka-Karen?"
Li Mo rubbed his butt and quickly stood up from the ground.
"Yes, it's me. Otto, you must have been waiting for a long time. I caught you something to eat!"
After saying that, Kallen walked out from behind the big tree, dragging a knight Honkai beast in her hand. Purple-white blood spread from the ground in the distance all the way to Li Mo's front.
Hey, hey, is this edible?
Li Mo wanted to roar hysterically and feed the pile of Honkai beast corpses to Kallen.
and many more?
Knight-level Honkai beast?
Li Mo raised his head and glanced at the petite Kallen. There was not a single scar on her body.
Before Li Mo could ask, Kallen answered innocently, "My father killed him. The warriors of the Kaslana family will be here to take us home soon!"
After saying that, he smiled and took Li Mo's hand, placing a piece of bloody Honkai beast meat in Li Mo's palm.
It was sticky and disgusting, flowing from between my fingers to the ground.
Li Mo's mouth twitched a few times. Kallen might be fine after eating it, but he died on the spot after eating it.
"What's wrong? Otto, why aren't you eating? Aren't you hungry?"
Faced with Karen's simple and naive words, Li Mo took two steps back and waved his hand to refuse.
The two of them pulled each other madly for a long time.
After a while, Li Mo saw Francis coming to him with a warhorse.
A group of people followed behind him, and Li Mo noticed that each of them was covered in wounds, but without their strange identities, Li Mo could not sense the strange aura in the team.
"Let's go, I'll take you home."
Francis carried Li Mo and Karen onto the horse and led the horse at the front of the team.
However, Li Mo was puzzled as to why Francis led the horse into the forest. He asked and got a very reasonable answer.
This place is far away from Vienna, so the horses were tied under trees during the battle. Although it was a stupid thing to lead horses in the forest, it was easy for horses to be killed by Honkai beasts if they were left in the wilderness.
Li Mo could understand. After all, he also liked to keep important teammates by his side. In the event of a supernatural incident, it was much safer to follow him than to stay anywhere else.
After returning to Vienna, Li Mo parted ways with Karen.
Before they parted, Karen said something puzzling to Li Mo: "Otto, thank you for telling me your guess about the fake person. If you have other ways to identify the fake person, remember to tell me."
Li Mo just said "hmm" perfunctorily and didn't take it to heart.
What he had to face now was how those old Bidens would punish him, the youngest son of the Apokalypse family.
But it doesn't matter.
Otto is weak now, but that doesn't mean he is soft-hearted.
When facing despicable people, Li Mo's approach is far more radical than anyone else. Hanging street lamps?
Haha, why not squeeze out their surplus value first?
If you don’t do it, others will!
If we raise the income tax rate to 95%, 5% of their salary won't even be enough to eat. There's no way they'll protest. If they do, it's just that they're stealing my tax dollars. They're a bunch of dirty robbers! Hang them!
Li Mo walked confidently into the gate of the Apokalis family, and was greeted by the head of the family, Nicholas, who stared at him with gloomy eagle eyes without any emotion.
In addition, the eldest son, the second son, and the younger generation of the family were standing on both sides watching the fun.
"Otto, you secretly took weapons from the family warehouse and absconded. I can give you a chance to explain."
Since he violated the clan rules, there should be someone special to punish him. Li Mo did not expect that Nicholas would judge him personally.
but,
it's the same.
"Reason? What reason do you need? Aren't the weak meant to be severely humiliated by the strong?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the children next to him couldn't help but burst into laughter.
The other elders also looked embarrassed.
Obviously, Li Mo's answer was too arrogant, even conceited.
Nicholas didn't say anything, and Li Mo didn't rush to add anything. Instead, he waited until the surroundings were completely quiet before clearing his throat.
He knew exactly what answer Otto's father wanted to hear.
If Kaslana is the people's shield and the guardian of justice, then Apokalis is the greedy hyena, weak but knows how to work together and use strategies.
And when climbing to the pinnacle of power, the first thing to be abandoned is morality.
"The warehouse contains many rare resources, extremely valuable weapons, and technologies. Based on common sense, theft shouldn't occur here."
"I am the youngest child in the Apokalyps family. Everyone knows that I have been weak and sickly since I was a child. I am very vulnerable and any difficulty can easily defeat me."
"But I stole everything I wanted from the warehouse."
"What does this prove?"
Li Mo spun around arrogantly, looked at everyone around him with contempt, and memorized their appearance.
"It proves that the man guarding the warehouse is a loser. I am stronger than him."
"We all know that nobles are commoners with superior status, and they can be bullied at will. Why? Because commoners have no power and influence, they are weak, and in this world, it is normal for the weak to be bullied by the strong."
"Then the one who should be punished is not me, but the warehouse keeper who neglected his duty and is weaker than me."
Li Mo argued confidently. He knew that this was what Nicholas wanted to see, the character that a true heir of the family should have.
The crowd questioned, "Bullshit! You're obviously weaker than him. Do you have the guts to fight the warden?"
This kind of voice quickly spread and became the main theme of questioning.
Li Mo walked up to the man slowly and said meaningfully, "Why don't you go and fight the civilians?"
"Maybe you would normally say to them: 'Poor bastard, I only need to pay you to beat me up, but if you beat me up, your parents will have to kneel down and beg me.'"
"But if he says—"
"Do I want your life?"
"Do you think you can definitely beat all the civilians? Idiot."
