"I only have one request. I will give you three days. Do your best to kill me within these three days. I will not fight back. But the same method will not work for me the second time. You can go back and discuss it carefully. I will stay in the village for these three days and cooperate with you, I hope you will not let me down."
After that, Li Mo walked into the village minding his own business, with a calm look that made it difficult for everyone to understand his thoughts.
The villagers have never seen such a bizarre request since they were born.
Li Mo didn't explain what the punishment would be for not completing it, but the villagers' discussions became more and more outrageous.
"If we fail to fulfill the immortal's request, I'm afraid our lifespan will be shortened by 50 years! In 50 years, I'm afraid that instead of being buried directly, all the children in the village will have to have their feet buried in the ground!"
"How is it possible! Haven't you seen the immortal floating in the air, with infinite strength, and the ability to drive fire and thunder? If we can't satisfy the immortal, I'm afraid everyone in the village will end up like the monster Qiongqi!"
"Harmful! It's like I just stepped out of the wolf's den and into the tiger's mouth! You'd better think carefully about how to satisfy the immortal's request."
Suddenly, opinions were divided.
Some poisoned people, some cut his body into pieces, and some threw Li Mo into a frying pan...
All kinds of strange ways to die were thought of.
In two days, Li Mo experienced it one by one, but no matter how complete the death was, the wound would heal quickly and then resurrect, returning to the original state in a few breaths.
"Immortal, how can your immortal body be killed... We can't do it."
"You still have one day."
After leaving these words, Li Mo returned to his room, leaving the villagers like overheated ants anxiously discussing countermeasures.
Suddenly, a villager's suggestion made everyone think it was feasible.
Mortals cannot kill immortals, but monsters can.
"Old Li, that child of yours... we don't intend to expel her, but the premise is that she must kill the immortal."
Hearing this, Old Li shook his head and refused: "No, no, she is not a monster, she is my daughter, and my daughter does not have that ability..."
"Hmph, are you refuting everyone? Who in the normal world can call the wind and control the water flow? You can't harm everyone for your own gain!"
Facing the villagers' strong cross-examination, the man couldn't help but lower his head.
After her daughter went to slay a monster wandering outside the village, she became very strange and often looked at the water in a daze.
One time he got up in the middle of the night and found that his daughter was talking to his reflection in the water tank!
As she grew older, this phenomenon became more frequent, so much so that one day she was discovered by the villagers. Everyone agreed that she was an alien and was about to become a companion of the monsters that wandered around the village.
So she kept putting pressure on Lao Li to expel her from the village.
He could still tolerate the cynicism from the neighborhood leaders, but when his daughter touched the lake, the increasingly hollow look in her eyes made Lao Li uncontrollably afraid.
If this continues, one day in the future, his daughter turns into a real monster and kills everyone in the village. Can he bear the responsibility?
"I... understand, I will let her kill the immortal tonight..."
"This is the right thing to do. After everything is done, all of us will build a special hut for your daughter outside the village and send you food every few days. It can be considered as compensation."
It was night, and Li Mo, who was sleeping on the bed, felt that the air was a little damp.
He could clearly hear the villagers' discussions, and Li Mo was also very curious about the girl the villagers said could kill him.
In the hazy sleep, Li Mo suddenly felt a little cold.
Just as he was about to stand up, he found that his chest was penetrated by something soft, and blood slid down the wound onto the bed, staining it red.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be water. A blade made of pure water penetrated into the heart without any hindrance.
"Well... you can't die even if your heart is penetrated? What about this..."
After saying that, the girl pulled out the water sword and thrust it straight into Li Mo's forehead.
Li Mo: "..."
"This won't kill me."
Li Mo held the sword on his forehead, and just as he was about to pull it out, he heard the girl reminding him: "Wait, don't pull it out, you will die!"
The next second the girl realized how ridiculous what she just said was, didn't the man in front of her want to die?
"Honkai energy..."
Li Mo recognized the girl's ability to control water, but as an ordinary person, it is extremely rare to be able to control Honkai Energy. What is her innate talent?Or was it a coincidence?
If you put it in the front civilization, it will definitely serve as a good warrior.
It seems that Mebius will conduct an upgrade experiment on a group of fusion warriors at the end of this year to make them more skillful in controlling Honkai energy.
There is a high probability that I will be the first batch of experimenters, and I will not die anyway. I will wait until I die hundreds of times, and when the experiment is mature, I will upgrade others.
end of the year?
"..."
Li Mo covered his head, his pupils trembling slightly.
When did this happen?
I regard the past as the present again...
If this continues, sooner or later I will forget the concept of time, so I have to find Red Kite quickly and borrow Yu Duchen to use it.
I hope Yu Duchen can be useful to me...
Li Mo hesitated for a few seconds. He had once been hypnotized by Yu Duchen in an experiment, but the conclusion was that Yu Duchen could not hypnotize him at all.
But hypnosis is hypnosis, and segmented memory is segmented memory.
Hypnosis involves dragging consciousness into an illusion, while memory cutting acts on the memory area.
Li Mo prayed that the latter would be useful to him, otherwise finding Chi Yuan would be useless.
"What Honkai Impact?" the girl asked doubtfully.
Li Mo shook his head and brought his thoughts back to reality.
"This is not something you should know. You were asked by the villagers to kill me. You failed, but I want to know what your name is."
Li Mo threw aside the water sword on his forehead. After leaving the limbs of both parties, the water sword turned into a puddle of stagnant water and collapsed in the corner lifelessly.
"Xiao Yun, my name is Xiao Yun."
"you are lying."
It's just a pseudonym. Li Mo clearly heard before that the villagers were coercing a man named Li and urging him to let his daughter try.
After hearing Li Mo's calm narration, Xiao Yun quickly explained: "My current name is indeed Xiao Yun. I used to be called Li Dan, but something bad happened along the way, so I changed my name to Xiao Yun..."
Li Mo raised his head and looked out the window at the villagers hiding behind the woods. Everyone's eyes revealed unconcealable fear.
The bad thing probably refers to the fact that Xiao Yun gained the power to control water flow.
Are you born with a stigmata?
Li Mo thought of a possibility. The innate stigmata did have a chance to activate after being exposed to a large amount of Honkai energy.
If this is the case, Xiao Yun is an incredible genius.
In the former civilization, he would definitely become the best among the fusion warriors.
Li Mo has a natural affinity for fusion warriors. After all, they are all comrades in arms.
"Everyone in this village seems to be afraid of you. This inhuman power is beyond their closed minds and they think you have been possessed by demons. In order not to implicate your family, or to get a new look, you chose to change your name. For Xiao Yun."
Li Mo talked eloquently and told Xiao Yun's life based on his guesses.
Xiao Yun lowered his head and did not deny it.
Xiao Yun: "I am going to leave the village and join the army, so that everyone can return to their original lives."
Li Mo: "You may die in battle if you join the army, aren't you afraid?"
Xiao Yun: "If you can make great achievements, there is nothing to be afraid of."
Li Mo: "So the reason why you voluntarily died was to make contributions? To serve your family and country?"
Xiao Yun: "That's not entirely true. I'm actually not that great. It's just that if I leave, everyone should be happier than now. At least we won't have to worry anymore. If we are lucky, we can still shine on our family and bring honor to my father."
Li Mo: "I see..."
Li Mo nodded in thought, his deep eyes filled with light, diffuse moonlight.
Voluntary death is justified and meaningful.
This is true of Cangxuan Danzhu, and so is the comrades of the pre-civilization.
He has not yet made it clear why Danzhu abandoned eternal life and chose death, but there is undoubtedly an excellent candidate for the experiment.
Perhaps Li Mo can get the answer he wants from Xiao Yun's experience.
"Your name is Xiao Yun, right? Since you are leaving the village for the sake of everyone's happiness, you might as well come with me."
"Huh? Why would an immortal say this? A mortal like me... Immortal, with all due respect, a mortal's life can only last a hundred years at most. Compared with you, it is like a drop in the ocean, insignificant. Even if Xiao Yun has the heart, he can't stay with you for too long. In the end , Immortal, you are still alone. In my humble opinion, Immortal is more suitable to save the common people. It is the best choice to leave a legend worthy of the people's praise and let everyone remember you."
"That way, you'll never be forgotten."
Xiao Yun leaned over and bowed, respectfully explaining his views.
Li Mo was not interested in this proposal at all. The more he experienced in this world, the more mixed memories he had in his mind. Too many memories would easily conflict with each other and contradict each other. In the end, he could not tell where he was or who he was.
In the remaining time, Li Mo had only two choices.
The first is to find Chi Yuan and use Yu Duchen to deal with the problem of memory disorder.There is a certain failure rate, and Yu Duchen may not be able to cut his own memory.
The second is to find a way to die and a reason to die, and die voluntarily like Danzhu Cangxuan.
Xiao Yun is Li Mo's reference point in searching for the reason for death.
“I don’t care if I’m remembered.”
"But..." Xiao Yun wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Li Mo before he finished speaking.
"Needless to say, you will neither age nor die in your future life. I will help you live forever until you die voluntarily. During this period, you can do whatever you want, including hobbies, dreams, feelings... …I won’t even stop it.”
"You can go to the battlefield and fight the enemy bravely, or you can live a leisurely life in a corner."
"And when the day comes that you want to leave this world, I need you to tell me the reasons for your voluntary death."
"How about it? Can you agree?"
Li Mo sat on the bed, looking at Xiao Yun with extremely serious eyes, without the slightest hint of joking.
Xiao Yun was stunned for a moment, and his astonished expression gradually became grim.
"Can the immortal let go of everyone in the village?"
Obviously, Xiao Yun is still worried that he did not kill Li Mo. Once Li Mo becomes angry at all and angers the village, no one in the whole village will be spared.
"Okay." Li Mo's tone was casual. He had no intention of massacring this village, but they just had too much imagination.
After hearing Li Mo's agreement, Xiao Yun breathed a sigh of relief.
Immortality is quite attractive to any mortal, including her. Who can refuse to be forever young, always full of energy, and able to try all kinds of things in life unscrupulously?
With this ability, she can replace her father on the battlefield to defend her family and country, make achievements, be appreciated by the king, and win praise from the world.
"Okay, I promise!"
Xiao Yun answered firmly, his scarlet eyes full of energy and impulsiveness.
She seems to be looking forward to an infinite future.
Once upon a time, Li Mo also saw the same look in Danzhu's eyes.
After learning that he and his sister Cang Xuan could live forever and stay young forever, they were so excited that they stayed awake all night and took Li Mo to pile up figurines at the beach all night.
Li Mo clearly remembered every word she said at that time, every bright and joyful smile.
But Danzhu's every frown and smile followed the passing trend and returned to the silent ocean, without the gleaming waves in the sky.
When another wave of tide comes, what floats to the shore is only the dark and decadent sea water, which is raw and bitter.
Will Xiao Yun follow in Danzhu's footsteps?
Or is it that with the help of the characteristics of immortality, it leaves countless bonds in the world and is reluctant to leave and die?
Li Mo didn't dare to judge the future arbitrarily. He also wanted to see what the future would be like for people with endless life spans.
"Fairy..."
"Just call me Mingyue."
