Global Erosion: Non-Human Claims to Be My Mr.

Chapter 18: Opportunity to Awaken

He glanced at the alert old man Qin Mo casually and said:

"Why should the inheritor have such great hostility towards his guide?"

Qin Mo vaguely felt a sharp gaze piercing through the other person's tightly closed eyelids.

The bracelet on his wrist became hotter and hotter. Qin Mo thought of something and his eyes narrowed suddenly. He remained silent and let the overly long sleeves cover his wrist silently.

For the first time, he truly felt that the bracelet was unusual, as if a dead object had come alive with its own life.

The old man obviously didn't care about Qin Mo's performance and continued slowly:

"You should have seen your name on the list just now."

Every word seemed to reveal a unique meaning of rules, appearing clearly in Qin Mo's mind and striking his soul.

The cold and calm words continued without any ups and downs.

"The trial has begun...you can't hide from it if you want to."

As if he knew Qin Mo's plan in advance, the old man spoke it out in one sentence, and then he specifically mentioned the existence of Qin Mo's two companions to put an end to his little thoughts.

Successor? Guide? Trial... Another new word.

Qin Mo felt as if he was in a fog, and after passing through one layer of fog, there was still fog in front of him.

The bracelet left by grandma has great appeal to someone like Xiaoyueliang, and the one who owns the bracelet is called the "inheritor."

If anyone else wants to use the power of the bracelet, the prerequisite is to erase his mark, which means taking his life.

Qin Mo thought of Hua Chi and the other two who were still nowhere to be found, and he hid his vigilance in his eyes, as if he had accepted his fate:

“What is the inheritor…the guide?”

"Huh? That old woman didn't say anything."

Who? Could he be talking about grandma?

Qin Mo saw the old man standing in front of him with a look of doubt on his face, and soon he felt his dark gaze falling on his wrist.

Although his gaze was quickly retracted, Qin Mo also saw the fleeting greed and the faint fear.

What are you afraid of?

There seems to be something about him that can make the unpredictable opponent afraid and dare not take action.

Qin Mo had a flash of inspiration, but was unable to catch it in time because the other party interrupted him.

The other party paused and then slowly spoke:

"The one who receives the inheritance can be considered the first person... Only when he is recognized by the previous inheritor can he be called the 'inheritor'."

"The guide is responsible for receiving the successor before the trial begins."

He said it but didn't say anything, it was more like a joke to him.

Qin Mo: “…”

Listening to your words is like listening to your words.

Noticing Qin Mo's dissatisfaction, the old man's smile became even more dazzling.

It seemed that no matter how he asked, the other party wouldn't say much.

It's true that the older you get, the better.

The other party didn't say anything, but he could go back and ask Xiaoyueliang, who seemed to know as much as the other party.

Solve the current problem first.

Qin Mo asked again with a normal expression:

"What is the trial?".

The old man smiled and said:

"Of course it's the trial of the successor."

Qin Mo was shocked. Could it be that there was more than one inheritor?

"Those who come out of this trial alive will be reasonably qualified to compete with the destined successor for the highest position."

It turned out that this trial was aimed at him, so he sincerely hoped that no one could "survive" and walk out of the trial.

Anyway, those who participate in the trial are not human.

The old man smiled sinisterly:

"If they knew that the inheritor was still a sweet human in this trial field, haha."

The popular Qin Mo: “…”

The smile...is so dazzling.

The old man's face was full of pride, and he looked superior. As if he was dissatisfied with the lack of excitement, he said:

"Your two friends are in the trial field..."

Flower ruler, small building...

Qin Mo's eyes changed before he could react.

Suddenly, the old man's face changed and looked extremely ugly.

His old face looked even more flabby, and all the energy in his body seemed to have dissipated, becoming as dim as the earth at dusk.

Then Qin Mo heard the other party say, "Time's up."

Every word was spoken with gnashing teeth.

what's the situation?

When he came to his senses again, Qin Mo was standing in the yard with the temple door closed behind him and drizzling rain falling above his head.

The old man in the temple's legs were shaking constantly with excruciating pain in his bones. His fingers gripping the broom kept tightening and almost broke it.

He stared fiercely at a half-human shadow that was about to disappear in the shadow in the corner of the temple.

Damn...

The old man threw away the broom that was broken in two in his hand and disappeared into the house.

The rain outside the temple started to drizzle and then suddenly turned into a heavy rain, as if gravel was falling down and grinding the thin but tough black tiles.

Everyone in the temple lowered their heads, as if waiting for the rain to stop and the wind to die down.

Xu Xiaolou couldn't stand the awkwardness and coldness of the scene, so he used his elbow to nudge the ruler and whispered:

"Why are you always looking at me?"

Wang Ming, who was standing by, heard Xu Xiaolou's voice and looked up curiously, and found Hua Chi was staring at An Yu among them.

Hua Chi shook her head and was about to say something when a sharp cry suddenly came from the temple.

Li Qing was holding a defeated look on his face and smiling, shaking constantly, as if he was so frightened that he couldn't stand.

"Li Qing! Xiaoxiao! What's wrong?"

Wang Ming quickly walked up to the two of them and asked anxiously.

Li Qing stood there in a daze, unable to speak for a moment. Xiaoxiao, who was standing beside her, grabbed Li Qing's arm that was holding her for a moment and said with trembling lips:

“There is…someone…”

Upon hearing this, Xu Xiaolou quickly scanned every dark corner with his phone, wondering:

"No".

Everyone surrounded Li Qing and Xiaoxiao. The increase in the number of people around him seemed to finally give Li Qing some courage. He cried out:

"No...no...it's the eyes".

"Red eyes!".

As she spoke, tears couldn't stop falling.

As soon as Li Qing started crying, Xiaoxiao, who had been holding back her tears, also started to cry, wiping her tears with her hands from time to time.

Hua Chi stuffed a pack of paper from her pocket into Wang Ming's hand, signaling him to coax him. She then glanced sideways at Xu Xiaolou and took a step back.

Xu Xiaolou chuckled and moved closer to Hua Chi:

"Are there really eyes that are red?"

"Could she be wearing colored contact lenses?"

Hua Chi raised the corner of his mouth and gave an elbow.

Xu Xiaolou bared his teeth, exhaled with a hiss, and continued:

"But both of them saw it, so they shouldn't be lying."

Hua Chi nodded, as if she saw Xu Xiaolou finally said something sensible.

Seeing Hua Chi fall into deep thought again, Xu Xiaolou rubbed his slightly cold arms and whispered:

"What can you see in such darkness! These two people can actually see a pair of red eyes."

He said with two clicks of the tongue:

"This is too creepy."

He felt something was wrong with this.
