Chapter 9 Looking into the distance(1/2)
"Hey, are you still alive? Why is there no movement?"
Lin Mo's weak voice brought Jiang You, who was in the second grade of middle school, back from his thoughts.
"Ahem, he's still alive."
Affected by the injury, he coughed twice.
There was a sudden throbbing in his heart, and the [Shadow Devour] ability kept reminding Jiang You to quickly devour the corpse in front of him.
He stepped forward, grabbed A Piao's arm, and activated his ability.
After just a moment, the huge body dissipated little by little.
Without hurrying to open the manual and check his own panel, Jiang You looked back at Lin Mo.
The blood volume on the opponent's head is quite fixed, and it will no longer decrease when it is fixed at [10].
[HP 70]: Slight injury
[HP 50]: The injury is serious
[HP 30]: Seriously injured!
[HP 10]: On the verge of death. Before the catastrophe, the probability of being able to save this kind of injury was about 30-70, or even 20-80.
[HP 5]: You can barely leave a last word, or you can’t leave any last words at all.
To be precise, this indicator is for ordinary people.
With extraordinary abilities, even if he is seriously injured, he can still explode with powerful combat power.
This night watchman still has [10] health left. According to Da Zhou’s medical level, he should... be able to survive, right?
Jiang You dragged his heavy body closer.
"Give me a hand... lean against the wall."
Lin Mo spoke with difficulty.
She grabbed his arm and helped him lean against the wall. This simple action made Jiang You, who had little energy left, take a few deep breaths.
His [Shadow] ability has no entity, and the only functions he has discovered now are to do exercises and copy books, otherwise he would not be in such a mess.
"Brother, you're not from the night watch department, right?" Lin Mo asked breathlessly.
"No." Jiang You replied, looking into the other person's empty eyes.
Obviously, the man in front of him did not recognize him.
This is normal, after all, except for riding in the same elevator a few times, the two of them have never had any other contact.
It's really outrageous to be able to recognize yourself even though you're blind.
"Hey, it's definitely not the case." Lin Mo grinned and said cheerfully, "I was just wondering if you were a colleague of the Night Watch Department. But it took so much effort to defeat a first-order mid-range mutant, so it's basically certain that you are not a Night Watchman.
"
"..." Jiang You choked.
"Just kidding...cough cough cough." Halfway through his words, Lin Mo began to cough violently, and his face turned pale and flushed.
After he swallowed the blood that surged up, he smiled again and said, "Which university is my little brother? How old are you?"
"Beidu University, sophomore year begins."
Jiang You made up one casually.
"Hey, junior." Unexpectedly, Lin Mo raised his eyebrows and said in a slightly surprised tone, "Which major is it, liberal arts or martial arts?"
Brother, are you okay?
It's okay, I'll leave first.
Jiang You opened his mouth slightly and choked on his words.
Fortunately, Lin Mo explained on his own, "Well... it should be martial arts, liberal arts can't deal with the first-order mid-level."
He chuckled lightly and rubbed his fingers, "Little brother, do you have a cigarette?"
"There are cigarettes and candies." Jiang You said hesitantly.
"Cigarettes?? That's fine too. Have one."
Jiang You touched his pocket and saw half of it was left.
He looked at the ground, where there were several cigarettes and candies that had been crushed in the battle.
"Only half of it left."
He divided the remaining half into two and handed it to Lin Mo's mouth.
"You kid." Lin Mo laughed angrily, "Swish, swish."
"The main thing is that I'm not rich either. There are some on the ground. If you want, I can pick them up for you," Jiang You said.
"Go, go, go," Lin Mo scolded with a smile.
The two were silent for a while, feeling the sweet taste in their mouths. The bruised night watchman took the initiative to speak, "Is this your first time hunting alien species alone?"
"Probably." Jiang You nodded.
"Sometimes I really envy you." Lin Mo sighed, "Martial arts, martial arts, combat... you are a natural talent. Unlike me, I have weak willpower and qualifications. People in their twenties have swallowed 'Looking from afar'
, still can’t even deal with a first-order intermediate alien species.”
"It's better to stop talking, save some energy, and wait for rescue to arrive." Jiang You hesitated.
Freely entering and exiting the shadow layer is an ability that should never be known to outsiders.
But looking at the state of Lin Mo in front of him, he might not die for a while, but it would be really hard to say if he was stuck here forever.
Lin Mo was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "I just want to find someone to chat with me."
Before Jiang You could speak, he continued, "The willpower of civil servants like us is like cotton wool. No matter how many there are, the essence is still cotton wool."
"When pollution comes like a tide, how can we resist...ahem"
He coughed violently, and his blood bar fluctuated and almost continued to drop.
"Do you have any regrets?" Jiang You asked softly, "I could have chosen the general liberal arts direction...and why would you, a civilian employee, run into the shadow layer?"
"Regret? I do regret riding a horse."
Emotionally excited, Lin Mo coughed a few more times, and after a while he said, "I am a civil servant. I fish at work, chat with girls when I have nothing to do, and happily train new night watchmen. My life is not fun.
."
"I'm really mentally ill. I got in for a while. It's better now, I can't get out."
"Can you still survive the rescue? I feel like you are not in good condition." After thinking about it, Jiang You asked.
Lin Mo waved his hand weakly, "The rescue signal has been sent out, let's see when someone can come. You don't have to think about carrying me around and running into another alien species. Your three-legged cat skills are not good enough.
Stuff between teeth."
Big brother is good at everything, but he's just a mouthful.
Jiang You was silent.
"Well, if you go to the academy again, help me apologize to Director Zhou of the Academy of Martial Arts and Spiritual Techniques. Just say that I failed to live up to his original expectations and that I can't even defeat a first-level mutant."
Lin Mo grinned and said, "Thank you to Deputy Director Huang of the School of Pollution, and say thank you for her teaching. Also, please advise her not to be such a middle-class student in class, and talk about 'passing on the fire, and the human race will last forever' all day long.
, so embarrassing."
"Oh, I almost forgot..."
Seeing that he was still planning to continue, Jiang You smiled bitterly, "Brother, why don't you wait for me to get a notebook and write it down, or wait until you recover and tell them in person."
"Ah." Lin Mo smiled and shook his head, "I have been holding these words in my heart for a long time, and I just wanted to find someone to talk to."
"Beidu Watch Academy."
He let out a long, unclear sigh.
Then he raised his head and said, "Are there any more candies? Two more, I want the spicy stick flavor."
"It's really gone." Jiang You said.
Suddenly, his ears twitched.
There were footsteps approaching quickly.
"It should be the Night Watch Division. You are saved." Jiang You breathed a sigh of relief.
"It seems I'm lucky. My colleagues are here now. Do you want to stay here?" Lin Mo asked.
"No."
"Go." He smiled with difficulty.
"good."
After looking at him deeply, Jiang You nodded, and his figure gradually disappeared from the shadow layer.
