Chapter 256 Bai Tingjun
"Is it okay to send it here?" Lin Mo supported Bai Xinqiao and asked with concern.
After a few people left the table, Lin Mo pulled Bai Xinqiao along until now.
At this time, Bai Xinqiao's face was flushed, like a ripe apple.
“It’s okay~ I can do it myself.”
Raising his hand to caress his forehead, Bai Xinqiao shook his head slightly and exhaled a breath of turbid air. He felt dizzy and felt like he was floating when he walked.
The evening wind blew past the two of them.
The bright moonlight lengthened the shadows of the two people.
“Really planning to go to Jingnan?” Lin Mo suddenly asked.
He knew that Bai Xinqiao had been struggling with which college to apply for.
"Yeah~" Bai Xinqiao nodded without thinking.
Today, she was able to say this answer so decisively because of her drunkenness.
The one her family arranged for her was Dongxia United University.
Her route has always been planned by her father and others.
This time, she wanted a different choice.
"Okay, let's stop here. I can go back by myself." Bai Xinqiao said lightly, and then stopped.
The fingertips flickered, and after the card was injected with source power, the Celestial Mechanical Vehicle was released.
Tianzhi has automatic driving, so it is generally not judged as drunk driving.
Besides, Bai Xinqiao is also a card master.
Compared to ordinary people, card masters bear more risks, but they also enjoy more benefits and privileges.
"Okay, see you tomorrow." Lin Mo smiled and waved as he watched Bai Xinqiao's petite body get into the Tianmai car.
In just such a short walk, the alcohol had been completely eliminated from the body.
Spread out along the pores
Now, it is really difficult for him to get drunk.
Looking at the silver-white heavenly weapon going away, Lin Mo put away the smile at the corner of his mouth, thinking that it was not very far from home, so Lin Mo did not use the power of the Rust Key Gate, thinking Walk all the way back.
At this moment, he is extremely looking forward to the college entrance examination coming soon.
In these days, he has made great progress in both actual combat and basic theory.
Not only the cultivation and engraving have returned to their original levels.
He has also prepared most of the promotion materials for the next stage of the Kalings.
With his current strength, Lin Mo felt that he could compete with a level 3 battle card master without using any talent.
As I walked forward unsteadily, the street lights flickered on and off.
With the sound of rustling, Lin Mo stopped and felt the changes in the atmosphere around him.
Stretched his muscles a little.
Lin Mo's eyes flashed with cold light, and his muscles tensed up, instantly entering a fighting state.
The whole figure looks like a cheetah.
Ever since he walked out of the barbecue restaurant, he had been feeling someone following him around him.
It’s just that the feeling is not strong or obvious.
At first, Lin Mo thought it was his illusion, but when Bai Xinqiao drove Tianzhu away.
This feeling began to gradually become stronger and more intense.
The feeling of being targeted by a poisonous snake made Lin Mo feel very uncomfortable and unhappy.
Looking into the darkness, Lin Mo said in a deep voice: "Come out, I see you."
Lin Mo naturally did not see any specific figure, he was just deceiving the other party.
Sure enough, as Lin Mo’s words fell.
In the darkness, a figure walked out.
The man was slender and wore a mask and sunglasses on his face. Lin Mo couldn't see his appearance clearly.
But Lin Mo could clearly feel the danger from him.
"Friend, following a young man from a good family in the middle of the night doesn't look like a good person."
Lin Mo said, staring at the man with bright black eyes.
While speaking, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, with a slight smile always on his face.
On the surface, the wind was calm and the clouds were calm, but Lin Mo's heart was already filled with a rush of herbivorous animals.
Counting the last time, this is how long it has been quiet.
In response to Lin Mo's question, the man who looked like a jackal did not respond, but took action directly and quickly.
First he caught up with a few steps, closing the distance between the two. Then he waved his arm and hit Lin Mo's face with a shining fist.
The wind of the fist roars, and it is the killing move.
Martial fighting style? !
Lin Mo's eyes twitched when he saw the other party making a move.
Although the other party did not follow martial ethics and suddenly launched a sneak attack, he was already prepared.
Faced with that fierce punch, Lin Mo just turned slightly sideways, moved his body to the smallest extent, and completely dodged it.
At the same time, both fists exerted force, and a pair of cannons hit the opponent hard.
The target is pointing to the opponent's chest and abdomen.
Today, Lin Mo has no specific concept of his own power.
But he knew that if the opponent hit him, he would be crippled even if he didn't die.
With a muffled sound of "Bang!", the man retreated violently.
The whole person's hands are in a hug, and the whole calf is slightly raised.
A faint wisp of green smoke slowly floated out from the man's knees.
What he saw was not very real. Lin Mo secretly clicked his tongue. The opponent's reaction was quick enough. He actually raised his knees to block the punch when he just punched it.
It is completely an instinctive reaction formed by muscle memory, an instinctive reaction, even faster than the brain.
In the first trial, neither side released any tricks or cards, and Lin Mo had a slight advantage.
Lin Mo sighed secretly, but he didn't know that the other party was even more shocked.
Behind the mask, the man staggered in pain, and the corners of his mouth kept twitching.
Blocked, but not completely blocked.
The force of Lin Mo's fist made the man feel pain in his calf.
Didn’t you say he was just a first-level card maker?
Why is this hand so strong?
The man secretly complained in his heart. Thinking of what his master had told him, he gritted his teeth and lowered his legs, pretending to be relaxed and patting the dust on his trouser legs.
Yo?
Still dusty?
Lin Mo raised his eyebrows lightly. The opponent's movements made him confirm once again that the fist just now did not cause any actual damage to the opponent.
However, the card master naturally wants to summon the card spirit to fight.
Thinking of this, Lin Mo made a thought and activated his energy.
The next moment, in the Life Palace, the engraving shone brightly.
A purple card appeared in front of Lin Mo.
[Lord·Shoggoth]
Source power was injected into the card, a burst of black mist filled the air, and the humanoid Shoggoth slowly appeared.
Previously, Lin Mo had always made the Shoggoths appear by possessing him.
But this time, Lin Mo let the Shoggoths appear as independent individuals.
"Xiuji~Master~" As soon as Shoggoth came out, he looked at Lin Mo with a smile, wearing a black and white dress.
She looks pure and cute. If you look closely, she looks a bit like Chu Xiaoxiao.
Perhaps due to his proficiency, the Shoggoths were mostly based on Chu Xiaoxiao's appearance when they transformed.
"Seal the intersection and don't let this person escape."
Lin Mo didn't care who the Shoggoths took the form of, he just gave instructions in a deep voice. After speaking, a smile spread across his face, revealing his white teeth.
The Shoggoths were also very obedient. Following Lin Mo's orders, his body began to decompose and reorganize. In just the blink of an eye, several black irregular objects split out. .
In a moment, all the surrounding intersections were completely blocked by the clones of the Shoggoths.
At this time, the man wearing the mask seemed to have just come back to his senses and stretched out his hand to summon the card.
Before the other party could make a move, there was a dark flesh tentacle behind him, completely restraining the other party's hand.
When?
Feeling the constant flow of power in his body, the man was startled and doubtful, his life palace flickered, and the sharp blade came out, cutting off the tentacles that bound his right hand.
The severed limbs of Shoggoths can continue to grow as long as they consume source power.
So Lin Mo was not very worried, while the other party cut off the flesh and broke free from the restraint.
Behind Lin Mo, the shadow shook for a while, and then a figure with the same appearance as Lin Mo emerged.
This figure is Lin Mo’s old body and a corpse puppet.
Lin Mo called it Shadow.
During this period of time, Lin Mo’s biggest gain was his shadow.
“Shadow, do it.”
Lin Mo said in a deep voice, and the corpse puppet behind him moved like the wind, unlike at first.
A few shadow corpse puppets strode to the man.
A punch was thrown out, and the wind whistled.
The man had just cut off the tentacle, and when he saw this powerful punch, he quickly ducked and dodged.
Boom!
The punch rubbed the man's hair and landed on the cement wall.
Suddenly the entire cement wall cracked completely centered around the impact point of the fist.
The man dodged in time and was still frightened. Before he could calm down, he saw the shadow's fist falling again.
Bang bang bang!
Several punches fell like raindrops.
The dull sound means it hit the ground.
Every punch was like a cannonball, smashing a hole into the ground.
The only pity is that the shadow lost its target.
Not only the shadow, but also Lin Mo himself.
With a burst of smoke and dust, the place where the shadow corpse was was empty, except for a straw-like little doll, looking at Lin Mo with a smile.
[Straw Doll] is a strange card that has the opportunity to stand in to avoid fatal attacks.
Lin Mo had seen this card in the card collection displayed by the card league.
Although the quality is not high, it is a life-saving card, so it has always been out of stock.
In reality, Lin Mo has never seen any card master who has this card.
Looking at the [Straw Doll] whose limbs were smashed to pieces, Lin Mo couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
At the same time, I am also confused, what on earth is this man going to do?
What Lin Mo had not noticed was that in the shallow pit created by the shadow puppet, there was something like a medal, shining brightly.
"Let's check with Master."
After making up his mind, Lin Mo stood up.
After taking the Shoggoths and Corpse Puppet back, he walked towards home.
On the other side, the Bai family manor.
"You mean to say that you, a third-level martial arts master, were injured by the opponent without even using your martial arts skills?" In a study room in the center of the manor , Bai Tingjun asked in a deep voice, his eyes full of disbelief.
“Yes.”
The man standing upright and with a cold face replied in a deep voice.
Although he couldn't believe it, this was the fact.
His name is Wu Xiao, and he is the person who just tested Lin Mo.
Thinking of what just happened, Wu Xiao's chest and abdomen still feel a dull pain.
"Are you sure you didn't hold anything back?" Bai Tingjun still didn't believe it.
“No!”
Wu Xiao was speechless for a moment. Not only did he not hold back, he also had no chance to take action.
"Okay, I understand, you go down first."
After receiving a positive answer, Bai Tingjun waved his hand, and then gently rubbed his frowning brow.
"Yes." Wu Xiao said in a deep voice and walked out.
With a click, the door closed, and for a moment only Bai Tingjun was left in the study.
"Eighteen years old, level 3 combat card master with actual combat power"
After muttering for a while, Bai Tingjun put down the book in his hand.
He opened a drawer and took out a group photo.
Looking at the group photo with a heavy gaze.
It took a long time before a smile appeared on Bai Tingjun's face: "Old Lin, your son is really outstanding."
Before he finished speaking, there was a slight knock on the door.
Bai Tingjun frowned, put away the group photo, and then said solemnly: "Please come in."
"Husband, it's me."
As the door was opened, the woman whispered , stepped in.
"What's wrong? It's so late and you're not going to rest?" Seeing that it was his wife, Bai Tingjun's brows dropped, and the stiff look on his face softened slightly.
“That kid Xinqiao wants to apply for Jingnan University, so I’m here to discuss it with you.”
The woman spoke softly, with a slightly sad look on her brows, and put her fingers on Bai Tingjun's shoulders, squeezing them gently.
With half-squinted eyes, Bai Tingjun instinctively wanted to refuse when he heard what his wife said.
After all, the next head of the Bai family must be able to take over the team and gain a firm foothold in the military.
Entering Dongxia United is more difficult than entering Jingnan.
Although he has been handling dispatching in the wilderness all year round, he rarely comes back.
But as a father, he knew exactly what his daughter was thinking.
I just want to get together with that guy from the Lin family.
Thinking of what just happened, Bai Tingjun was stunned for a moment.
Although he is the son of an old love rival, as long as he is of good character, he will naturally not object.
“If you can reach the third level at the age of eighteen, it will take three to five years to enter the wilderness and return, and it seems that you can be officially awarded the title.”
Tapping his fingers on the table, Bai Tingjun thought carefully.
The beautiful woman stood behind him and stopped moving her hands.
She knew her husband was thinking, so she did not continue to avoid disturbing him.
Pa~
His fingers tapped on the table. As soon as the movement stopped, Bai Tingjun opened his eyes, smiled lightly and said to his wife: "Tell Xinqiao tomorrow that I agree to this matter."
"But one thing, let Xinqiao be careful, I don't want to be a grandpa when I come back."
Speaking of the second half, Bai Tingjun said it almost in a very serious tone.
"What nonsense are you talking about? The children are still young." The woman reacted belatedly and patted Bai Tingjun on the shoulder with a smile.
"Just get vaccinated in advance"
In response to his wife's joke, Bai Tingjun just shook his head helplessly.
He didn't know Lin Mo's specific character, but he knew Lin Ke very well.
"How many days can you stay when you come back this time?" After talking about the children, the woman did not leave in a hurry, but asked her husband softly.
"I'll leave tomorrow afternoon." Bai Tingjun paused and said in a deep voice.
“It’s so urgent, over there.” The woman’s eyes dimmed as she listened to her husband’s answer.
"The frequency of riots in the wilderness is getting higher and higher, and abnormalities are beginning to appear in the scattered secret realms within the federation." At this point, Bai Tingjun suddenly stopped.
Looking at his wife, he said softly: "In the past few years, the family has worked hard on you."
