Chapter Eighteen Throat Cutting(1/2)
On the second floor of the church, the corridor was in chaos. Everyone was running like crazy, rushing into the rooms on both sides of the corridor and locking the doors, completely ignoring the people behind.
Some children in the church were frightened and ran out. The pastor ran in front of the crowd. When he saw several girls running out, he shouted: "Go back!"
The girls screamed and ran back to the room. Some were so frightened that they fell to the ground, got up and continued running, their bodies shaking constantly. The priest took Irina to the innermost room to take shelter.
"Follow me." Xu Mo hugged Yao'er and said to Mia and the others. He sensed that the leather-armored man and the ghost-faced man had already gone upstairs and were behind them, but he did not shoot, but followed them forward.
Walk.
The doors on both sides of the corridor were locked one after another. Those who entered immediately closed the doors, and Xu Mo could only move forward.
At this moment, a door next to him suddenly opened, and a little head poked out, saying softly: "Here."
Xu Mo did not hesitate and walked in with Mia and the others.
The door closed and Xu Mo looked in front of him. It was a very thin girl who was also one of the previous singers. At this time, she put on ordinary clothes, which were a little tattered. She looked at Xu Mo.
Waiting for someone, then sat down next to him.
Besides her, there were several girls in the room. Their eyes were dull. Seeing Xu Mo looking at them, they lowered their heads slightly and sat in the corner. These girls did not participate in the previous performance.
"Thank you." Xu Mo said to the girl who opened the door. The girl didn't say anything, she just lowered her head.
Xu Mo felt that something was wrong with this church.
His perception spread outwards, and two figures appeared at the end of the corridor, a bald man, and another holding a knife, staring at the leather-armored man and the ghost-faced man walking toward them step by step.
There was even lightning dancing on the knife that the man was holding.
"Yuanli." The leather-armored man stared forward, his eyes suddenly becoming extremely solemn.
"Uncle Fang, we seem to have broken into the den." The ghost-faced man whispered: "Do you want to retreat?"
"Take it." Uncle Fang, the man in leather armor, did not retreat, but ran forward. Seeing this, the ghost-faced man raised his gun and shot at the two people on the opposite side.
The bald man and the man with the knife also moved and ran forward, causing the ground in the corridor to shake.
"Bang!" The bullet hit the bald man in front of him and seemed to be embedded in his skin, but it did not penetrate and there was no bleeding. His skin seemed fake, as if it was made of steel, and his body moved at a terrifying speed.
Appearing in front of the leather-armored middle-aged man, he punched out his fist fiercely.
The middle-aged steel fist in leather armor also struck out in the same way. The two fists collided together and made a crisp sound, which was the collision of metal.
"Transformation of people!"
The face of the middle-aged man in leather armor changed slightly, and his body was shaken back. The bald man also stopped, but an electric knife appeared. The man with the knife appeared from behind him and slashed hard at the middle-aged man in leather armor.
The light of the knife flashed across like lightning, extremely sharp.
The leather-armored middle-aged man raised his fists to resist the electric knife, but the opponent quickly struck out with the second and third blows in a series of blows, which was extremely thrilling.
At the same time, the bald man rushed towards the ghost-faced man.
The ghost-faced man was very fast. He fired continuously while retreating, aiming at the opponent's eyes and head. He saw the bald man with his arms in front of him, and the bullet hit his arm, which penetrated the skin of his arm, but exposed
The steel inside, the opponent's clothes were torn apart, and the whole body seemed to be covered by a pair of armor.
The ghost-faced man's eyes were very ugly under his mask. Of course he could tell that the other person was a reformer.
In the room, Xu Mo leaned against the door, sensing the battle outside. The middle-aged man in leather armor had very strong strength and physical agility. He used his steel fist to fight against the opponent's electric knife, but he did not lose. The same goes for the man's knife.
It's scary, far from the level of a black market fighting arena.
Any one of these four people is stronger than him.
The last time he fought with the leather-armored middle-aged man, it was mainly because of the change of direction of the meteor dart that the opponent was caught off guard and threatened the opponent. If faced head-on, he was no match.
"Uncle Fang, it's a bit thorny, please retreat first." The ghost-faced man shouted. His two guns could not threaten the opponent, and he was forced to dodge.
"What to do with those children?" Uncle Fang was a little unwilling. His attacks with the steel fist became more and more violent, and he clashed head-on with the opponent's electric knife. It was a completely life-threatening attack.
They traced the abduction and came to the church, but unexpectedly entered the den.
"child?"
Xu Mo always felt that something was wrong. These two people did not look like thugs, and they did not kill indiscriminately when they entered the church. From what they said, it seemed that they were here for the 'children'.
Previously on the street, the place where he met the other party was the place where the magician was kidnapped, and the other party might be tracking down the abduction incident.
There is definitely something wrong with this church.
Xu Mo moved his eyes away from the door and looked at the girl huddled in the corner. Energy light appeared in his eyes, directly penetrating through the clothes. He saw scars on the girl's body, some of which were not healed. It was shocking. Xu Mo
His heart couldn't help but twitch.
"How did you get here?" Mia asked the girl, obviously she also heard the sounds outside.
The girl lowered her head and did not answer.
"Where are mom and dad?" Mia continued to ask.
Several girls shook their heads. A girl about six years old next to her took out a photo from her pocket and held it tightly in her hand. She opened the photo that was about to be crushed very carefully, with tears falling from her eyes.
.
"Can I show it to my sister?" Mia asked with some distress.
The girl nodded and handed the photo to Mia.
Xu Mo also took a look at the photo, and his expression suddenly changed.
"Show me." Xu Mo took the photo directly from Mia's hand, making Mia look at him in surprise.
There are three people in the photo. In addition to the girl in front of me, there is also a couple. They are a family of three.
Xu Mo's eyes were fixed on the man holding the girl. He was a very burly man with big hands. He dragged the girl on his hands. The girl hugged his neck, with a bright smile on his face.
"Artai." Xu Mo felt a strong sadness, thinking of the man who was tortured and killed in the fighting ring. He participated in the fighting just to send his child out of this cruel and ruthless underground world, but he died in the fighting ring.
Now, his child has been abducted and trafficked here...
He understood why Atai wanted to send her away.
"You know my dad!" The girl heard Xu Mo's whisper and stared at him. She walked up to Xu Mo and asked, "Brother, do you know where my dad is?"
Xu Mo raised his head and looked at the girl, only to see the girl's face full of tears and eyes full of hope looking at him.
He didn't know how to speak.
"Xu Mo." Mia also looked at Xu Mo.
Seeing Xu Mo lowering his head, he didn't dare to look into the girl's eyes.
"Brother, can you please tell me where my father is? My mother and I have been looking for him and couldn't find him. Later, I was captured by the bad guys and came here. Does he want me and my mother anymore?" The girl burst into tears.
Heartbroken, obviously I have suffered too much grievance.
"No." Xu Mo looked up at the girl, his voice choked with sobs.
"Where is my dad?" The girl cried even harder.
Xu Mo looked at her, stretched out his hand to wipe her tears, and said sadly: "Your father has always loved you. He desperately wanted to make money and send you to a better place to live, but something happened."
Xu Mo's voice was a little low, and the girl was confused. She seemed to understand something when she heard Xu Mo's words, and cried heartbreakingly.
"I don't have a father anymore, and my mother can't be found. They beat me and scold me every day..." The girl's body was twitching violently, and she couldn't stop her tears. Mia on the side couldn't help crying when she heard all this.
.
"Is this really a church?" Mia felt a little unreal. She never imagined that this sacred place would hide such darkness.
Xu Mo didn't answer. He didn't know how to answer. He continued to sense the situation outside. The steel fist was still violently colliding with the electric knife. The leather-armored man's attack power became more and more violent, as if he was desperate for his life.
There isn't much time left.
At this moment, a man appeared at the end of the church corridor. He grabbed a girl and walked towards the leather-armored man with a knife in his hand: "Are you here to save them?"
The knife cut through the skin on the girl's face, and the girl screamed in pain and fear.
"Beast!" the leather-armored man roared.
The man quickly walked up to the two of them and said to the leather-armored man: "Leave it to you."
As he said that, he actually threw the girl directly between the two of them.
The man holding the knife slashed the knife in his hand without any hesitation. Uncle Fang was struggling fiercely in his heart. He didn't have time to think about it. He struck out the opponent's knife with his right hand and hugged the girl with his left hand.
"Pfft..." While Uncle Fang was distracted, the opponent's knife slashed down, blood spattered, and Uncle Fang's right wrist was cut off. He put the girl on the ground, with a painful look on his face, and looked at it with some sadness.
Crying girl, the girl ran away crying.
"Uncle Fang." The ghost-faced man behind him who was forced to the other end of the corridor shouted. At the same time, three gunshots were heard outside, as if to remind them to evacuate.
"Let's go." The middle-aged man in leather armor kept bleeding from his right hand, staining the ground red.
"Uncle Fang..." The ghost-faced man's voice was a little painful.
There was another gunshot from behind, and the middle-aged man in leather armor yelled: "Get out of here."
The ghost-faced man didn't hesitate any longer, his eyes under the mask showed a painful expression, and then he ran wildly down the stairs, and the bald man also chased after him.
The middle-aged man with leather armor knew that he might not survive. The blood was flowing too fast and he couldn't stop it. Although his physical fitness was very strong, he still couldn't hold on. What's more, there was a genetic warrior in front of him.
He took off his mask and threw it on the ground, revealing his resolute face, staring at the two people in front of him, and said: "I pray that your children will not have the same experience."
