Chapter 342 Are you really waiting for him to give you the final payment?
After hearing what Lao Mo said, the young leader of the fanatics felt a little angry but surprisingly did not refute anything. He just snorted and handed the three "scales" to Lao Mo on the spot: "You are really not kind."

Lao Mo calmly took them and stuffed them into his backpack, then emphasized: "Don't forget to give me three more after you're done."

“Got it, got it!” The fanatic leader’s face darkened, and he was about to roar, “You go deal with it first, I’ll go get the rest now!”

After he said that, he turned around and walked into the fog again. His back figure looked like a department manager whose project had gone wrong, and he looked a little embarrassed.

Not until he was completely out of sight did Lao Mo heaved a sigh of relief, then looked at the weird art teacher and a follower of the fanatic leader, sneered, and then winked at Lin Yi.

"Walk."

"okay."

Lin Yi responded and followed quickly like a personal eunuch.

As a "self-propelled backup mobile energy", he must be proactive and conscious and cannot be left behind at this time.

The weird art teacher and the follower looked at each other, then followed silently.

Lin Yi followed Lao Mo to the first large plaster body, and then looked at Lao Mo curiously, wondering how Lao Mo would balance the account.

Lao Mo was seen pressing his hand gently on the large plaster body. The action was almost the same as the fanatic leader activating the matrix. However, in the next moment, Lin Yi clearly saw that a bright golden light appeared where Lao Mo's palm touched the large plaster body, as if someone was pointing a golden fluorescent pen at one edge of Lao Mo's palm.

"No, it's not that simple!" Lin Yi quickly discovered something unusual, "Lao Mo's extraordinary power... is golden?!"

The golden aura that even the physical education teacher didn't have actually appeared on Lao Mo? !

Moreover, judging from Lao Mo's appearance, it was as easy as using one's own arm to exert this power.

As the golden aura poured in, the large gypsum body began to tremble violently. The entire gypsum body became transparent as if it were a huge stone egg. A dark and blurry human-shaped shadow with wings was looming inside the stone egg.

Gradually, the stone eggs began to beat slowly like hearts, and began to make the sound of "Gudong! Gudong! Gudong..." Along with this rhythmic sound, invisible waves began to spread in all directions...

Lin Yi's pupils shrank slightly, and a voice emerged in his mind: "Angry Angels! What Lao Mo meant by settling the accounts is that he is going to help them hatch angry angels?"

He looked at Lao Mo in disbelief. Gray transactions are gray transactions, but if the transaction crosses the line, then the nature of the matter changes.

He subconsciously clenched his fists. He didn't know why, but he had a strange feeling - although what Lao Mo did had nothing to do with him, if Lao Mo really did that, he would be very disappointed in Lao Mo...

However, Lao Mo's next move was beyond his understanding. After the golden aura penetrated into the stone egg, before the stone egg began to shrink, it filled the entire stone egg like dust.

As these auras entered, the interior of the stone egg, which was originally somewhat transparent and in which the outlines of some angry angels could be vaguely seen, suddenly became turbid.

The angry angels who seemed to be sleeping soundly immediately realized that something was wrong and started to riot. However, the golden aura was like poison gas to them and corroded them severely. The angry angels kept struggling, trying to break through the stone eggs, but the stone eggs, which looked as soft as a film, were as indestructible as a steel barrier.

The furious angel gradually lost its vitality. Its flapping limbs slowly stopped struggling and it became frozen in a certain movement like a stiff corpse.

Lao Mo remained calm as he poured the golden aura into the angry angel's body.

The next moment, the body of the angry angel began to decompose at a speed visible to the naked eye. The hardened flesh and skeleton were peeled off one after another, and then gradually annihilated. The whole process was just like the angry angel who was killed by the physical education teachers in the dome with old kerosene lamps.

In the end, the stone egg finally stopped making any movements, and inside it was only turbid slurry and the mixed smell of the decomposed angry angel.

Lao Mo drained all the golden aura from it, then slowly loosened his hand.

At this moment, the stone egg had completely shriveled up, like a large raisin sculpture.

After Lao Mo finished, he took Lin Yi to the next large plaster body.

Lin Yi followed, glancing at his watch from time to time.

Lao Mo maintained the trend of finishing one large plaster body in two to three minutes and processed more than a dozen of them, and the time came to 22:00.

"Lao Mo...it's past ten o'clock." Lin Yi said in a low voice.

Lao Momo nodded silently and quickly finished what he was doing.

"Looks like it's almost done..." Lao Mo clapped his hands, then waved at the weird art teacher and the mist behind the follower, "Hey! You're finally back. I thought you were hiding and didn't want to pay me the balance!"

"Huh?" Lao Mo's words made the weird art teacher and the follower turn around in surprise and look over.

However, the fog was rolling and no one was visible.

The weird art teacher was slightly stunned, and then a light flashed in her eyes: "Not good!"

She turned around suddenly, but in front of the large shriveled stone ball that looked like a raisin, there was no trace of Lao Mo and Lin Yi.

She stamped her feet and said, "Damn it! They just ran away like that!"

The attendant also had a look of annoyance on his face, beating his chest and stamping his feet: "This black chef is so cunning, he is willing to give up the balance?"

The weird art teacher's face darkened. "Rather than giving up, it's better to say that he never really believed in us from the beginning... On the contrary, the silly little fool beside him believed in us from the beginning to the end."

"He used that brat to make us slack!"

"Even his own people are deceived!"

The two men gnashed their teeth, but could not find any trace of Lao Mo and Lin Yi.

……

X023年5月9日，22:03，荒芜大地的另一端。

Just a moment ago, Lin Yi heard Lao Mo's voice "Relax and don't resist" in his ears. Before he could react, he heard the sound of "whoosh" wind in his ears. He felt like he was being led by Lao Mo like a kite, and there was floating mist in front of his eyes.

If he hadn't been so clear-minded, he would have suspected that he was dreaming again. After all, the two environments were too similar.

When his vision recovered a little, he felt his feet were firmly on the ground. This strange feeling of being off the ground and the subsequent feeling of being firmly on the ground were just like the light Kung Fu rescue in martial arts movies. With one jump and one drop, he landed from point A to point B.

Of course, the only difference is that Lin Yi feels that during this process, he is more like a weapon in the hands of a martial arts master than the person who was saved by the martial arts master...

"Old Mo, why are we here? Don't we have an uncollected debt?" Lin Yi's mind really hadn't figured it out yet, so he couldn't help but ask.

Lao Mo was speechless and said, "Idiot, that guy hasn't come back for half an hour, and you are really waiting for him to give you the final payment?"

"Ah? But you gave up and only took half?"

"It's not bad... You don't know how valuable these scales are. That guy dared to give me three scales at once, so he must have a backup plan." Lao Mo said, "When dealing with fanatics, don't think they are easy to bully just because they are timid..."

"You think they are cowards only because they can't beat me. If they could beat me, we wouldn't be able to sit down and talk peacefully."

"Ah..." Lin Yi let out a howl.

Lao Mo continued, "Besides, I never planned to ask for the balance from the beginning, and this is most likely my last deal with them. If I wasn't worried about them chasing us desperately, I would have taken you with me and made a profit."

Lin Yi was immediately ashamed. Didn't Lao Mo's words mean that he was even planning to just roll up the three scales and run away?
Just take a deposit and leave, just like getting a gym membership.

"Then why don't you run?"

"Because it's not cost-effective. If I were alone, I would just run away, but with you, it would consume too much energy to run. It's better to go through the normal process." Lao Mo said slowly, "Did you see those stones?"

"Yeah." Lin Yi nodded.

"Those are artificial crystals of supernatural powers, similar to extracted ores. If the supernatural power sequences in them are arranged and combined, they can be used to create a body for the Wrathful Angel. They can also be used for other things, such as... building a campus."

Lin Yi was stunned.

Lao Mo continued, "Their current state is like a kind of rough stone. What they will become in the future depends on what sequence the matrix will program for them... But just now, something went wrong with the matrix, and the sequence inside was disrupted, resulting in some uncontrollable mutations."

"This mutation caused the sequence structure inside to shift from the direction of the Wrathful Angel to a path that would seriously damage the extraordinary power within the matrix. It must be abandoned."

"However, the fanatics do not have this ability, so the deal was reached naturally."

"Don't have that ability?" Lin Yi thought, "Could it be related to the golden aura?"

Lao Mo glanced at Lin Yi and said, "After all this, you still don't understand why I am willing to take the trouble to help them do practical things."

"Yeah." Lin Yi nodded.

Lao Mo said, “Because regardless of all the twists and turns, the essence of those stones… is a kind of extraordinary power that has been refined through many processes and is beyond the ordinary purity.”

Lin Yi thought of the "feast"-like changes inside the large plaster body under Lao Mo's manipulation, and guessed: "In fact, while you were helping them, you also consumed some of the extraordinary power inside?"

Lao Mo nodded: "Smart."

"If I take the three scales and run away, the fanatics will definitely chase me all the way. Although I can kill them all, it will consume too much energy. Maybe they will even drain your little power bank dry."

"But if I help them settle their accounts before running away... Firstly, even if they are reluctant to give up the three scales, they will have to weigh the pros and cons if they really want to catch up with me. Secondly, I have absorbed so much extraordinary power that I have nowhere to vent it. If they dare to chase me, they will surely die without a burial place."

"The reason why I didn't chase for the balance is to prevent them from getting the benefits and refusing to acknowledge their debts. After all, some of these fanatics are stubborn and have two minds. If they really turn hostile, it will be no different from the first option."

"Instead of letting them get entangled, why don't we just run away? That way, they can just curse at us behind our backs."

"It's all 'old tradition'. As long as it's not too extreme, everyone will turn a blind eye... After all, the fact that those fanatics are here means they are not well-received. They are all marginal figures. Why would they risk their lives for no reason?"

"No, this can also be a tradition...?"

"You'll know later. Even if they are ferocious beasts, lions in zoos are not the same as those in the wild. Some of them still have human nature, and we can 'communicate' with them, so we don't have to convince them with virtue. As for fanatics, their ultimate pursuit is just different from ours. As long as we don't get to the point of fighting, we can basically get along peacefully." Lao Mo patted Lin Yi on the shoulder, "So, when it comes to benefits, you should be content with just a little bit."

"Ah..." Lin Yi cried out thoughtfully, "So those things are really 'scales'? If they are scales, what are they from?"

Lao Mo looked around and said, "Let's get out of the range of this matrix first. Even though there's something wrong with their matrix, if they're determined to find us, they can still lock onto us."

"it is good."

Following Lao Mo, Lin Yi soon arrived at the edge of the barren land, and his intuition told him that this edge should be the other side of the barren land.

Lao Mo pushed aside the twisted vines and took Lin Yi into the deep forest.

When he completely stepped out of the barren land, Lin Yi clearly felt the cold touch again, as if he had passed through a layer.

"We won't be tracked by them once we get here." Lao Mo brushed off the dust on his body, observed the road conditions, and continued on his way. "If you feel hungry, you can tell me and we can stop to eat something."

Lin Yi shook his head: "I'm not hungry yet, you can continue."

Lao Mo nodded: "Okay, let's jump to the next step."

Lao Mo took off his backpack, reached out and took out the three scales, and handed two of them to Lin Yi.

"This thing is very rare. I thought that extorting two was the limit, but I didn't expect to get one more. It's a bargain for you."

"Give me both?"

Looking at the two scales in Lao Mo's hand that were almost indistinguishable from each other, Lin Yi opened his mouth wide with a look of surprise.
