Chapter 8 A Knife
On the fifth floor of the fighting arena, in a private room, two figures stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, standing here, you can easily overlook the entire fighting arena.
"Newbie, interesting." The middle-aged man who was standing on the left was wearing glasses on his nose, squinted his eyes and looked at the fighting arena, like a cold poisonous snake.
"Cobra, do you let Ryan participate in the fight, aren't you afraid of losing one of his subordinates?" The middle-aged man next to him was shaking his wine glass.
"He was short of money, that's all." The Cobra's voice was a little hoarse, staring at Xu Mo opposite Ryan below and said, "Why are there always newcomers who like to die? Qin Zhong, do you want to have a gamble?"
"Go to Ryan and the newcomer, Cobra, do you think I look like a fool?" Qin Zhong said with a smile.
"The odds of ten to one, I'm 10,000, you 1,000, I'll play with you." Cobra turned his head and looked at Qin Zhong and said.
Qin Zhong looked at the bottom and nodded: "One thousand is not a small amount for me, but since you are interested, if you play with you, you should contribute to the funding of the fighting arena."
After saying that, the two of them paid the money directly and handed it to a tall woman behind her. She was the waiter in the fighting arena. In every agreed bet, the waiter in the fighting arena will act as a notary and as a reward, the fighting arena will receive a certain share of commission.
Qin Zhong, he is the direct person in charge of the fighting arena.
…………
On the fighting arena, heavy metal music stimulates the audience's emotions, and many people are yelling before the fight begins.
"Ran, kill him."
"Take his knife off and stab it into his heart."
Many people shouted wildly, even more excited than Ryan himself in the fighting arena.
"Challenger, newcomer, code-named hunter; challenger, Ryan, four victories." A mechanical voice came from above his head. Ryan didn't even wear a helmet, but only arm guards. He stared at Xu Mo with extreme contempt. Can he withstand a punch with such a thin figure?
"Isn't this new man a gambler here to die again, right?"
"Even if you are so weak, you dare to walk onto the fighting arena. This is because you want money but don't have life."
"Ryan killed his opponent in all four battles, and he won't let him go this time. This kid is probably dead, hunter?"
"Smash him to death, Ryan, don't use the second punch."
Countless sounds penetrated into Xu Mo's eardrums. He stood quietly on the fighting field, and the lights swept across his body. In this wild atmosphere, he felt isolated from the whole world.
Xu Mo closed his eyes, and everything around him was clearly imprinted into his mind, including the crazy and ferocious expressions around the fighting arena. Everything seemed to be slowing down, beating frame by frame, and his mind was like a machine running.
His hands were very stable, and his strong anger was suppressed by him.
The scimitar in his hand flashed with a cold light under the light. Xu Mo held the hilt tightly. At this moment, his aura changed and a strong sense of confidence emerged, just like the extreme challenges he had faced again and again. What's more, in his calculations, the danger was zero, and he would win!
"start!"
The moment the sound sounded, Xu Mo opened his eyes, and a cold light shot out from his pupils. His body moved, and his feet stepped on the fighting arena. His thin body showed powerful explosive power and ran towards Ryan.
"Ho huh huh..." The audience around the fighting arena shouted excitedly.
The newcomers took the initiative to attack? They seemed to see Ryan's arm guard smashing each other's head.
Ryan raised his arms, stepped out, staring at Xu Mo who was approaching him, and made a blocking gesture.
Xu Mo's body came to Ryan, and the scimitar slashed directly, and in one go. Under his mental power, Ryan's movements were very slow.
Ryan glanced at the position where Xu Mo's scimitar was sneering, and raised his left arm to block it with an arm guard, which was the same as the previous move.
"Um?"
Ryan suddenly realized that the scimitar's trajectory was a bit strange. It was not a straight slash, but turned into an arc, like a crescent moon. The moment his arm was raised, the speed of the scimitar suddenly accelerated, as if he had accurately calculated his movements.
Blood splattered on his face, and Ryan didn't feel the pain, just because the knife cut off his finger and it came into his pupils.
"Puchi..."
The sharp knife slashed down, and a blood line appeared on Ryan's forehead. His eyes did not close, and he stared at the thin mask figure in front of him. Then, his body fell down directly, and the blood stained the fighting field red.
One knife!
The onlookers suddenly became quiet, the roar came to an abrupt end, only the heavy metal music was still shaking in the crowd's eardrums. Everyone stared at Xu Mo, paused for a moment, and the next moment, even more crazy roars resounded throughout the fighting arena.
It doesn't matter who wins and loses for the audience. What they want is stimulation and to be able to burn their nerves. This knife undoubtedly did it.
No one was optimistic about Xu Mo, who thought he would be killed by a punch, killed Ryan, who won four consecutive victories with one knife.
At this moment, blood was still dripping from Xu Mo's scimitar.
Xu Mo stared at the corpse without any sense of guilt in his eyes. The scene of Ryan breaking into his house and killing people is still vivid in his mind. This is the deepest memory left to him by the original owner!
Throwing the scimitar on the fighting arena, Xu Mo turned around and walked towards the passage. He did not enjoy the cheers around him. These people were not cheering for him, but cheering for barbarism and killing.
In the passage of the fighting arena, the previous receptionist was already waiting here. When he saw Xu Mo coming, he bowed politely and said, "Mr. Hunter, this is your reward for appearance."
Xu Mo took over 1,800 federal coins and whispered: "Thank you."
As he said that, he walked outside. Everyone in the backstage stared at Xu Mo. Shawel also saw the battle just now. Although Ryan might have been careless and underestimated the enemy, Xu Mo's sword was indeed very amazing. You should be careful when you meet him in the future.
"Mr. Hunter wants to rest here for a while?" The receptionist caught up with Xu Mo.
"No need." Xu Mo shook his head.
"I'll send you to the sir." The receptionist did not leave anyone, and sent Xu Mo out of the passage, and then said: "If Mr. Hunter comes next time, the reward for appearance will definitely be much higher."
"I understand." Xu Mo nodded with his back to her, continued to leave quickly, walked out of the fighting arena, and did not stop at the casino, and left here directly.
Ryan is one of the murderers who killed his family. There are three other people who did not show up. I don’t know who the other party is. However, Ryan appears in the black market, and the other people are very likely to be active in the black market.
The arsenal should be very powerful, but the arsenal does not necessarily need to take action on its own in this way. Ryan is most likely to be hired. Also, he just heard someone say that Ryan is a Cobra's subordinate.
Who is the Cobra? What role does the law enforcement team play in it?
This time, he killed Ryan through fighting. To outsiders, it was just an ordinary fight rather than revenge. No one should pay attention, but you should still be careful and not let anyone find him.
After Xu Mo walked out of the casino, he quickly walked out of the black market. Soon he found that someone followed him. Obviously someone was curious about his identity. Although he didn't know who it was, Xu Mo was mentally prepared. After several consecutive shuttles in the black market, the mask on his face disappeared and he put on a piece of clothing. He did not walk out of the black market until he was sure that no one was following him.
…………
When Xu Mo returned to the department store, he felt like he was a different world. This place and the black market were like two worlds.
"Xu Mo, you are back." Mia smiled sweetly when she saw Xu Mo coming back, and she was telling a story to her youngest.
"Well, thank you Miss Mia," Xu Mo replied.
"Don't be so polite." Mia pretended to be angry, and did not ask where Xu Mo had gone. She looked at Xiaoer and said, "Xu Mo, Xiaoer is so smart. I plan to teach her to read in the future."
The youngest man sitting next to him looked up at Xu Mo and smiled foolishly, saying childishly: "Brother, the youngest man likes to listen to Sister Mia telling stories."
Xu Mo stepped forward and rubbed Yao'er's head, and whispered: "So you have to remember Sister Mia's goodness, do you know?"
"Yeah." Yao'er nodded seriously.
"Miss Mia, I'll go change my clothes." Xu Mo said and walked inside, and came back not long after, and said, "Miss Mia, I'll come to see the store, you go and rest."
"It's okay, look at the store, I'll continue to tell stories to my son." Mia gave some spot to Xu Mo.
Xu Mo sat down, and a faint fragrance flowed into his breath. He turned his head to look at Mia who was telling stories seriously beside him. The kind and gentle Mia was like a clear stream in this barbaric world. She should not have been born in this barbaric world.
I don’t know if Mr. Batu can always protect Miss Mia.
"Xu Mo, what are you looking at?" Mia noticed something and turned around and looked at Xu Mo.
"Nothing." Xu Mo looked away, Mia felt a little strange. Xu Mo now felt different from before, but she couldn't explain the difference between the difference!
