2020, December 23, 1:00 noon.

Christianfield, Taijilong Twin Towers Station.

Cheng Mo sat up from the bed, dressed and got out of bed, picked up the glasses on the bedside table and put them on. At this time, the room was empty. Not only Bai Xiuxiu was not there, but even Xie Minyun was not there. This made Cheng Mo feel a little strange. Because Chen Fang

Cheng Mo asked Bai Xiuxiu to find a reason to move him out of his original dormitory and hide in Xie Minyun and Bai Xiuxiu's double room, which he thought was the safest.

Bai Xiuxiu rarely appears in the room these days. Even if she appears, it is during the time chosen by Cheng Mo to enter Asgard. Cheng Mo glanced at Bai Xiuxiu's bed. Although it was neatly folded and seemed to have not been touched,

The box placed under the bed was placed at a slightly different angle than yesterday, and there was a faint smell of powder and perfume in front of the makeup mirror. Cheng Mo knew that Bai Xiuxiu was in the room in the morning.

Cheng Mo was not sure whether Bai Xiuxiu deliberately avoided him. In his opinion, it was true that Bai Xiuxiu was busy, and the deliberateness was not small. Cheng Mo put on his shoes and walked to the desk by the window. Usually Xie Minyun was at the desk at this time.

She rarely leaves the room when she is studying, either reading or meditating. However, she is not here today. This is why Cheng Mo is surprised.

He walked to the window behind the desk, opened the curtains and looked outside. The sky was gloomy, and fine snowflakes were flying. The entire Christianfield turned into a snow country, and the pointed eaves were covered with white snow. Although he was wearing a constant-temperature Tai Chi Dragon

Even though he was still in a heated room, Cheng Mo felt the icy chill. He stood in front of the window and looked at the courtyard belonging to the Japanese god of wind. There was no one inside, except for two lines of footprints cutting straight from the middle of the courtyard.

It's like a mechanical painting.

After staring at the snowy scene in silence for a moment, Cheng Mo lowered the curtains, took out the Black Death mobile phone from his pocket, opened the secret mailbox and took a look. Saionji Benimaru had already replied to his email, expressing his gratitude to Asgar in tactful words.

He is not interested in the secrets contained in De, and does not dare to cooperate with Cheng Mo and offend Xingmen.

The dark word 'dare' on the screen danced in Cheng Mo's pupils. He held up the phone and closed his eyes. He went through all the conversations between Saionji Benimaru and himself so far before he began to reply to Xi Yuanji.

Sondera Benimaru's email.

"Benimaru-kun, let's not talk about what Asgard can gain. I just want to ask you, isn't it interesting to challenge the Star Gate?" Cheng Mo just typed this sentence and clicked send, and then he

I planned to wash my face and brush my teeth, but I didn't expect that Saionji Benimaru replied as soon as I reached the bathroom door.

Cheng Mo clicked on the email and saw that Saionji Benimaru wrote: "Mo-chan, you don't understand me deeply enough! Let me tell you, I have always wondered why I am so bored and bored.

I used to blame it on my family and myself. Later, when I went for a physical examination, I discovered that my brain was different from that of ordinary people. My amygdala, which controls fear, was slower than that of ordinary people."

As soon as Cheng Mo finished reading this letter, he received the second letter.

"That is to say, I have to be stimulated more than the average person to feel scared. Only at this time will my adrenaline and dopamine be secreted sharply. So, it's not that I can't feel fear, but it makes me scared.

The excitement level is high, and I only feel pleasure after feeling fear and overcoming the thing that scares me.”

"That's why I like the feeling of walking on a tightrope and facing death. It's so sweet that it's like poison. But I can only challenge the limits of survival. Only by challenging the limits and breaking through them can I achieve the ultimate success.

Pleasure. Death does not bring me any pleasant feeling. Challenging Star Gate is certainly interesting, but dying is not an interesting thing. For now, before I become a god general, I will not have any interest in Star Gate.

Too many ideas. Because that’s no different than sending yourself to death.”

After three letters, Saionji Benimaru did not send any more messages. Chengmo thought for a moment, went into the bathroom and sat on the toilet and started typing: "Benimaru-kun, I am similar to you in facing fear, but I

My fear level is very high, not because of my family, personality or other reasons, but because I have had heart disease since I was a child, and I have developed a cold heart while fighting against death that could come at any time.

I have to keep my emotions from fluctuating violently, which makes it difficult for me to feel happy."

Cheng Mo clicked send and then started writing the second letter.

"I used to think I liked a sense of security, but as I entered the other world, I discovered that what I really liked was not the sense of security, but the intense stimulation of walking on the tip of a knife, which I had never experienced before.

This feeling makes me mistakenly think that I like a sense of security. But I didn’t join Tai Chi Dragon because I like this kind of stimulation, nor did I try my best to fight against the Star Gate because I like these stimulations. To me, these are just

By the way, I have researched the Land of Ruins and found that many of the contents have obvious points. I and you should also know, but these contents are not allowed to be discussed. You said that your goal is to become a god general, then do you know what my goal is?

What?"

"What?" Saionji Benimaru replied instantly.

"I want to know who is the 'Creator'! I want to know what is behind the Chosen One!" Cheng Mo finished typing these two lines, his breathing involuntarily quickened, and his finger hovered over "Send"

It didn't fall down for a long time, and after a while, Cheng Mo licked his dry lips and clicked send.

At this moment, Cheng Mo felt a little tight in his chest, and his whole body felt cold, as if the cold wind outside the window came through, blowing him like leaves blowing in the wind. He knew what she was talking about, on the Chosen One Forum

No one discussed this matter, and in private, Tai Chi Dragon students could chat, but could not inquire or study it. This was a taboo topic for any Ouroboros owner.

It is extremely abnormal that such an important matter is not allowed to be discussed and studied. What is even more abnormal is that all the chosen ones remain silent in this huge fog that cannot be ignored or avoided.

Cheng Mo thought of his father who wrote "The Origin of Mankind", a powerful chosen one, who died in an accident so easily. His slightly confused eyes turned deep, gloomy and cold. Cheng Mo held

Holding the phone tightly, he straightened up and turned to look at the mirror in the bathroom. He looked at himself in the mirror and wanted to know whether this was his true wish or just to deceive Saionji Benimaru.

He stared into his own eyes and found that he had been restraining his desire to explore dangerous mysteries. The reason why he restrained himself was because of desire.

Maybe it's because he is his father's son; maybe it's because he has a strong thirst for knowledge.

Cheng Mo felt that he was being pulled forward by an invisible fate.

Cold sweat broke out all over his body, and just then his phone vibrated. Cheng Mo lowered his head and saw that he had received a reply from Saionji Benimaru. He opened the email, entered the password, and immediately saw the reply from Saionji Benimaru.

The body of the email.

“So much fun!”

“So much fun!”

"So fun! So fun! So fun! So fun! So fun! So fun! So fun! So fun! So fun! So fun! So fun! So fun! So fun!

Great! So fun! So fun! So fun! So fun! So fun! So fun! So fun! So fun! So fun! So fun! So fun! So fun! So fun!

! So fun! So fun! So fun! So fun! So fun! So fun! So fun! So fun! So fun! So fun! So fun!”

The entire screen was occupied by the bold and bold words "It's so interesting!" Cheng Mo seemed to see Saionji Benimaru's unscrupulous and cold smile.

It felt like he just looked at himself in the mirror.

"Didn't you go downstairs to eat?" Xie Minyun said as he closed the door and walked into the room.

Cheng Mo, who was sitting at the desk, raised his head from the computer, looked at Xie Minyun, shook his head and said, "I don't really want to eat it."

Xie Minyun came over, took out a piece of "Dove" chocolate from his pocket and put it on the table like a magic trick. He said nonchalantly: "My uncle gave me two pieces just now. I ate one piece and left one piece with you.

"After a pause, Xie Minyun looked at Cheng Mo's forehead and asked, "Why are you sweating? Is it hot?"

Cheng Mo did not go to get the chocolate, but pushed away the computer chair and stood up. He walked around the table to Xie Minyun's side, leaned his head slightly closer to Xie Minyun's cheek and smelled it.

Xie Minyun was startled by Cheng Mo's sudden thrust. She thought he was going to kiss her, so she subconsciously tilted her head back to dodge, and said with a slightly red cheek, "What are you doing?"

"You lied. You didn't eat chocolate just now. There is no taste of chocolate on your lips and teeth." Cheng Mo put his arms around Xie Minyun's soft and slender waist and said.

"I didn't lie to you. Is it necessary to lie to you for a piece of chocolate?" Xie Minyun said softly.

"Then let me try it!?"

"Taste what?"

Cheng Mo spoke and answered with firm actions. Originally, Cheng Mo thought that he would face Xie Minyun's ruthless rejection. However, to Cheng Mo's surprise, Xie Minyun just dodged a little and did not resist too much, so the smell of chocolate filled the room.

The sweetness. (Some words are omitted below)

A newlywed couple enjoyed some gentle affection in the room for a while. Although they didn't really do anything, for Cheng Mo, such a reward was enough happiness.

Xie Minyun loosened his hold on Cheng Mo's neck, pushed Cheng Mo away a little, and held Cheng Mo's hands to prevent him from moving. He bit his lower lip and asked in a low voice: "Asgard's mission

How's it going?"

Cheng Mo said in a low voice: "At present, we can only say that there is hope, but the final result is difficult to predict. The Star Gate has sent two chosen ones who are ranked in the top 100 on the Heavenly Ranking. It is really difficult."

"When you say there is hope, that means there is a lot of hope. But my uncle's tone sounds like he has no hope at all?"

"Don't dare to lie. I didn't get what I saved and let everyone down." Cheng Mo said calmly.

Xie Minyun lightly pecked Cheng Mo's cheek, and then said, "I believe you can do it."

"I hope so!" Cheng Mo said, "But that's what you said when you met your uncle just now?"

Xie Minyun shook his head slightly and whispered: "There are other things."

Xie Minyun did not tell Cheng Mo that Xie Guangling came to her to ask her to leave Christianfield today, nor did she tell Cheng Mo that she directly rejected Xie Guangling and even had a quarrel with Xie Guangling because of this matter.

There was no expression on Xie Minyun's face, and he spoke in an understatement. But Cheng Mo knew Xie Minyun too well now. He remembered the news he had just received from Xiyuanji Hongwan, saying that all members of Tai Chi Dragon were under the surveillance of Star Gate.

, he frowned and asked: "Did your uncle ask you to leave?"

Xie Minyun opened his mouth in surprise, and immediately whispered: "It is said that there are some problems in Russia and Germany. The situation in Europe may worsen recently, so my uncle asked me to return to China first, but I don't want to be special.

, did not agree."

Even if Xie Minyun didn't say anything, Cheng Mo knew that Xie Minyun didn't leave, and there must be his own reasons for this. At this juncture, Xie Guangling asked Xie Minyun to leave, which was definitely not a trivial matter. Considering Xie Guangling's speech yesterday, Cheng Mo immediately realized that Xie Guangling was preparing for any moment.

As he prepared to evacuate Christianfield, Cheng Mo felt increasingly uneasy. He let go of Xie Minyun's hand and said, "No, I also think you should leave. Christianfield is in danger."

"Then I can't leave."

Xie Minyun's tone was indifferent, which made Cheng Mo a little confused. He knew that Xie Minyun was not a person who would be easily persuaded. He sighed, walked to the window, and completely opened the curtains. The snow outside was still falling endlessly.

, there is no one on the street, it seems like a quiet, peaceful and pure world.

Xie Minyun walked to Cheng Mo and said softly: "Don't be nervous. My uncle asked me to leave just in case. Things are not as bad as at K20. Otherwise, what will happen to so many students? I think I can organize it
