Chapter 356: A soldier never tires of deceit
"Lao Mo..." Lin Yi's voice trembled slightly due to the coldness of the environment. "Have you ever thought that if we were to die here by accident and then return to the campus as fanatics, would that be a very shocking scene?"

"No." Lao Mo said decisively, and then seemed to realize that his words were inappropriate, so he said again, "The situation you described will not happen to me."

"But if it happens to you... I think it won't be as simple as exploding. With your characteristics, once you fall, I'm afraid you won't just be a 'fanatic'. I think the boss will be in big trouble."

"Of course... at the moment, it's only enough for her to drink a pot."

Boss... Lin Yi's mind flashed with the boss's domineering and heroic appearance. He didn't expect that in Lao Mo's mouth, the boss's combat power was evaluated so highly.

Continuing to move forward, the gray fog in front of Lin Yi's eyes became thicker. It hung low near the ground, like a gray-white ocean, leaving only limited space above. As the gray fog surged, it constantly rolled up some dust-like particles, blocking Lin Yi's sight like water vapor, giving people a sense of oppression and confinement as if they were traveling in an endless maze.

Walking here, every step is extremely difficult and full of unknowns. The surrounding darkness accompanied by gray fog constantly compresses the range of light formed by the big eyeballs, and it seems that unknown dangers will emerge at any time.

The scattered candlesticks in the corridor released dim fireflies, and the weak light could only barely illuminate a small area in front of the eyes. The lights spread in the mist but could not penetrate the thick darkness. The mist and the sound of the wind intertwined with each other, making the entire space even more deep and mysterious.

Gradually, Lin Yi heard a "ding-ding-dong-dong" sound in the gray fog, as if someone was playing some kind of musical instrument. The sound was slowly transmitted in the wind, passing through countless corridors. By the time it fell into his ears, it had become very faint.

“Rustle… rustle…”

Black shadows began to appear on the walls of the corridor. They moved very fast, like some black hounds, but they ignored the laws of physics and crawled stealthily on the walls and ceiling.

They seemed to be some special nocturnal species, with more agile speed and lighter figures than pure nocturnal species. Their bodies were like hounds or leopards, and they moved in groups. Compared with the crowds of pure nocturnal species that were only intimidating, the threat level and harm seemed to be more than one level higher.

Lao Mo plucked out a big eyeball whose light was about to go out, squeezed it tightly in his hand a few times, and then threw it away.

The big eyeball was thrown out and bounced a few times on the corridor floor. Then a bright golden edge bloomed from its inside, clearly outlining the cracks on it. Immediately afterwards, the big eyeball exploded violently.

“Bang—”

The aftermath of the explosion spread out, clearing away part of the gray fog. The hound-like nocturnal species crawling darkly within the range of the gray fog were affected by the explosion, and they let out sharp howls of pain, then hid themselves, staring at Lao Mo with fear and extreme resentment.

But in fact, they were not afraid of Lao Mo, but of the string of big eyeballs in Lao Mo's hand. When these things were stable, they were like light bulbs, but when they were unstable, they would explode like grenades.

"Let's go." Lao Mo quickened his pace and brought Lin Yi to the area where the gray fog had been cleared.

Although the gray fog in that area was cleared a little, it was immediately filled with the surrounding gray fog like sea water backflowing.

Not long after they walked, Lao Mo plucked out another big eyeball and did the same thing. Those hound-like nocturnal creatures seemed to have no memory at all and blocked their way one after another, waiting for the moment when the light went out.

The string of big eyeballs in Lao Mo's hand dimmed faster and faster, and the frequency of his throwing the "bombs" became faster and faster. In the end, because the power of the big eyeballs was not enough, he simply rubbed a few of them together and threw them out together.

The light was about to go out, and the dim candlelight was blocked by the thick fog, so that Lin Yi could not see the expression on Lao Mo's face at all.

His fists gradually clenched. This dark and depressing atmosphere actually made him feel a bit claustrophobic and anxious. He began to look around more and more frequently. Looking at the unclear darkness, his throat rolled slightly and he let out some low roars:
“咈咈咈……咈咈咈……”

He clenched his teeth, and hot air came out from between his teeth, which actually dispersed some of the fog nearby.

“Rustle… rustle…”

The hound-like nocturnal creatures around were making increasingly rapid noises. Lin Yi could even hear the sound of some sharp nails scraping on the bumpy walls.

“Hey…hey…”

Lin Yi's breathing became rapid.

Lao Mo also fell silent. The whole atmosphere became stagnant, and there was a sense of dead silence before a storm.

This corridor seemed endless, extending in a straight line into the depths shrouded in darkness and gray fog where there was no light.

After walking for such a long time, they didn't even see the shadow of the gallery. It seemed as if the two of them had lost themselves in this corridor.

Finally, Lao Mo threw out the last few big eyeballs in his hand.

The only area of ​​light moved out as the big eyeball was thrown out, just like a signal stick thrown out of a dark deep well...

[Howl——]

[Howl——]

In the darkness, countless figures began to pounce on Lao Mo and Lin Yi.

"咈——" Lin Yi's eyes seemed to be filled with a layer of blood. His body was slightly arched, and a sky-blue aura floated on his body like a materialized armor. A manic murderous intent of "tear all of this apart" spread wildly in his heart.

At this moment, Lao Mo's voice, as cold as the ice of the Far North, suddenly rang in his ears: "Boy, don't resist!"

If he was just told not to resist, Lin Yi would still hesitate, but when he brought the "kid" along, he knew it was definitely Lao Mo who was talking to him.

At this moment, reason overrode his instinct. He tensed his body, but hesitated to attack the hound-like nocturnal creatures that were almost pouncing in front of him.

At this moment, Lao Mo's sinister sneer suddenly spread in the corridor, like ripples, expanding suddenly!
Lin Yi only felt a cold breath passing through his skin, and the next moment the armor-like sky-blue aura on his body disintegrated directly, turning into the purest supernatural power that was drawn out of his body... "What is this...?!" Lin Yi's heart thumped, "Isn't this Lao Mo's 'domain'? But didn't he just say...?!"

"Is he lying to me?"

Lao Mo didn't care what Lin Yi was thinking at this time. His domain expanded with a strong aggressiveness, pulling in all the hound-like nocturnal species that rushed in. Then, the irresistible absorption ability directly enveloped them, drawing out the extraordinary power in their bodies in an extremely violent manner.

Those hound-like nocturnal creatures twitched and turned into stone. Their bodies shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye and eventually turned into countless pure white powder particles that floated away.

However, this is just an appetizer. Lao Mo's target is not these hound-like nocturnal creatures, but the laughing angels!

The group of smiling angels hovered around Lao Mo and Lin Yi, watching them hungrily all the way. Finally, when Lao Mo was submerged in the gray fog and lost his big eyeballs, they could no longer hold back. They quietly mixed into the ranks of the nocturnal creatures and pounced on Lao Mo together with those hound-like nocturnal creatures.

Now, with the fall of the hound-like nocturnal species that were drained by the domain, the Laughing Angels found it difficult to conceal their whereabouts. They instinctively sensed the problem, but were severely restrained by the squeezing power in Lao Mo's domain.

Lin Yi suddenly discovered that maybe the gray fog affected Lao Mo's performance. Lao Mo's domain could not completely suppress the Laughing Angel, but could only limit the Laughing Angel's mobility to a great extent.

Lao Mo's eyes slowly swept across all the smiling angels in the area. A hint of disappointment flashed across his eyes unconsciously. He muttered, "What a pity... there is not a single one holding a lantern..."

Lin Yi was shocked when he heard this. He then realized that Lao Mo actually wanted to hunt down a smiling angel holding an old kerosene lamp!

After a fruitless search, Lao Mo, like a butcher on a farm, when he couldn't find the right ingredients, settled for the second best.

"Surprised? What's there to be surprised about?" Lao Mo squinted at Lin Yi, and then continued to examine the prey he had shot down. "All's fair in war. I said 'it's almost impossible to expand', not 'it's impossible to expand'."

After saying that, Lao Mo slowly stretched out his hand, and the golden aura covered his palm like liquid. Then he grabbed one of the Laughing Angels and used the golden aura to offset the Laughing Angel's penetration into the layer, causing it to gradually transform from a ghostly form into something substantial.

The Laughing Angel kept struggling, trying to use its own characteristics to absorb the extraordinary power in Lao Mo's body - and it actually succeeded!
I saw that the extraordinary power in Lao Mo's body was actually stimulated a little by it, and there was a tendency for it to separate from his body!
Lao Mo frowned, cursed secretly, drew out the butcher knife, and chopped directly at the wing with the most materialized part, cutting off its wing cleanly and neatly.

Lao Mo threw the wing on the ground and let it begin to transform into a big eyeball. He ignored the "broken-winged smiling angel" and started to take the wings of the second smiling angel.

The laughing angel whose wings were cut off by Lao Mo at the beginning began to show strange changes. It maintained the translucent floating ghost posture and kept making hideous roars of pain. Its body showed signs of distortion. All its attention fell on its wings. It struggled and stretched out its hands weakly towards its wings, but in the end it became increasingly illusory and finally disappeared into the air.

The third Laughing Angel also had his wings cut off by Lao Mo, and began to show the inexplicable symptoms of disappearance.

Lao Mo put the butcher knife back into the scabbard, then reached out and grabbed the four pairs of wings, using the golden aura to speed up the process of their transformation into a string of large eyeballs.

In just a moment, four strings of big eyeballs appeared in his hands.

Old Mo, holding four bunches of big eyeballs, looked like a sausage vendor, or a thief standing under a grape rack holding bunches of grapes.

Soon, the grape thief moved. Lao Mo took off a big eyeball, squeezed it hard, and threw it out like a stone to test the water.

"Let's go!" Lao Mo said loudly, "The Laughing Angel won't be fooled a second time. We must enter the gallery before the light goes out this time!"

The mixed supernatural powers drawn from the hound-like nocturnal species and the laughing angel floated in the field like virtual particles. However, Lao Mo did not absorb these supernatural powers, but chose to take Lin Yi away directly.

"Okay!" Lin Yi was confused, but he followed immediately.

Gray fog filled the entire corridor, and the dim candlelight could only open up a tiny area at its best. If it weren't for the big eyeballs, Lin Yi would not be able to move around here at all.

After walking for a while, Lin Yi gritted his teeth and asked, "Lao Mo... the light intensity here is not enough for me to come back, right?"

Lao Mo paused for a moment, but did not lie to Lin Yi: "It is indeed not enough... So we need to hunt down a Sly Laughing Angel, not only for his "dormitory manager" certificate, but also for the lamp."

"After I kill the Laughing Angel, I will tell you exactly what to do. Follow me first to the gallery. The duration of these four pairs of wings is not the same..."

Burning one piece of wood at the same time and burning four pieces of wood at the same time both take the same amount of time as burning one piece of wood. The only difference is the brightness and temperature.

As they walked deeper into the corridor, even the brightness provided by the four strings of large eyeballs was insufficient.

Just after they left, some of the hound-like nocturnal species did not continue to chase them, but stopped at the place where Lao Mo's domain had appeared, greedily and madly devouring the part of the extraordinary power floating in the air.

Gradually, those hound-like nocturnal creatures began to mutate, and they began to merge with each other...

Finally, a majestic figure slowly stood up from the gray fog.

It has the characteristics of a nocturnal species, with some human-like outlines, but other than that it has no similarities to humans. It has no eyes or facial features, and there are three or four parts that look like a head, which move like independent tentacles and emit some strange low moans:

【……fanTome……】

【fan...Tome... fRa... for...RidEn...】

【fanTome... fRa forRidEn...】
