Remnant bones

The torrential rain that lasted for more than three hours had already stopped.Facing the narrow path clearly visible in front of me, I am not surprised to be sure that this is one of the bases leading to Orochimaru in all likelihood.Why didn't I find out that he was so rich before... The base we were originally in was not small.

Sure enough, as I expected, after unraveling a few illusions, we saw our destination this time——the North’s secret place, that’s what Dou called it.Judging from this, there should be at least two such bases.

However, I really didn't expect that the place not far from the forest is not an environment like a plain, but a strange rock group similar to karst landform.The geographical environment of this world is really not ordinary and nonsensical... It appeared so suddenly, and it did not evolve progressively according to normal logic.

The fantasy space of different dimensions... It really reminds me all the time that many places here cannot be measured by the original laws.

In front of the heavy iron gate similar to the gate of a prison, a row of ninjas in uniform uniforms in white and black pants stood there neatly.Judging by the posture, it is obvious that they have been notified in advance and came to greet the staff.

Just as I thought, a middle-aged man who seemed to be the leader stepped forward and bowed respectfully: "Welcome to you, Oshemaru-sama."

"Your arrival is welcome, Oshemaru-sama!" The others behind him repeated in unison, a little slower.

"Yeah." Shen Shen replied, after arriving here, Orochimaru is obviously no longer as amiable as before (!?).The faint evil spirit lingering around him is quite in line with his current status.

Under the leadership of a middle-aged man, Junmaro and I entered the base behind Orochimaru.Because there is no need to wear cloaks along the way, our cloaks, bamboo hats, and umbrellas were handed over to two attendants.

As I went deeper along the way, I discovered that there is no such thing as electric lights in this world.At least this row of lighting facilities is installed in the corridors of this base. I don't know why, but I have never seen it in the previous base.And it is obvious that Orochimaru lived with us in the previous base under normal circumstances, which only shows that... lighting candles is his personal interest... Speechless...

On the way, I passed a prison-like cell, where many people were detained.Unlike the previous base that was full of children, none of the detainees were younger than [-], and judging by their expressions, they were not "brainwashed" like those subordinates, but they were very fond of Orochimaru. With a kind of hostility from the bottom of his heart... a veritable prisoner!

I chose to ignore the resentful eyes of those prisoners who transferred to me because of Orochimaru.Besides being taken aback, Jun Malu next to him didn't have any other psychological discomfort.Compared with them, he was used to seeing the crazy expressions of the original clansmen before each mission, which was really not shocking to him.After all, between the madman and the Avenger, the former is obviously more difficult to deal with.

"Hehe..." Orochimaru obviously noticed Junma Lu's performance, and curled the corners of his mouth as if very satisfied.As for my disregard, to be honest, he, who has developed immunity to this, is not surprised at all.In other words, in his and Dou's eyes, if my performance was normal that day, then it would be truly absurd!

I don’t know how long I’ve been walking in twists and turns. Although the real calculation is actually not complicated, the problem is that there is no sign at all forks here, and they are all done in the same way. It feels like walking in a maze.However, it is better than the original base, at least the light here is very sufficient, and there will be no feeling of visiting a haunted house.

Soon, the three of us arrived at a room that looked like a viewing platform, and one of the walls was completely transformed into a terrace. Standing on the side and looking down, we could see an oval-shaped training ground.However, compared with other normal training grounds, this training ground has only one metal door locked with layers of iron locks. Those ninjas who are staff members all enter from places like this kind of exhibition stand on the four walls. Jump down the rope and climb up again.

Why does it look like the Colosseum in the Roman period... Although I can guess that this strange place is related to the human experiment conducted by Orochimaru, I can't think of any experiment that needs this kind of test site?The ice-blue pupils gradually turned silver, and I became more and more interested in the research of Orochimaru.This world really has a lot of things that the original world did not have, it is really worth looking forward to!

"How are you getting ready?" Sitting down on the chair in front of the terrace, Orochimaru asked the middle-aged man behind him.

"As usual, three days is already the limit." The middle-aged man was reporting, and the radio in his right ear seemed to have some news at this time. After listening, he respectfully said to Orochimaru: "Have entered The scheduled tunnel will arrive soon."

"Then... let's put the 'bait' first!" Looking at me who was paying attention to their conversation, Orochimaru raised the corners of his mouth with a sly smile.Let's show you a good show... Hehehe...

I raised my eyebrows out of curiosity, and I was about to see what the "bait" he was talking about, only to find that Jun Malu, who was on the side, was struggling to look down.Oops... forgot he wasn't tall enough!

There are no other chairs in the room, and that middle-aged man is obviously not someone I can order around.As for asking Orochimaru to move two more chairs, even if he is willing, that loyal subordinate will definitely "kill" me with his eyes!It's really troublesome... Why do you build the railing so high...

Simply jumping onto the terrace, I ignored Orochimaru's acquiescent smile and the astonished gaze of the middle-aged man, and sat down on the edge.He patted the vacant seat beside him, and motioned for Jun Ma Lu to come up too.

Jun Ma Lu looked at me, then at Orochimaru, and seeing that he had no objection, he obediently jumped up and sat down at the seat I designated.

The middle-aged man dared not speak out, and was about to yell at him, but was frightened by Orochimaru's stare and shut his mouth.It was only then that he remembered that the two presumptuous boys in front of him who didn't know the rules in his eyes were brought by Mr. Oshemaru himself!And Oshemaru-sama personally acquiesced in their actions, so as a mere subordinate, he has no right to blame at all.

At this time, I had already set my sights on the special training ground below.I saw a few men whose clothes were no different from those of the prisoners, walking from the opened metal door to the venue one after another.This is the so-called..."bait"?

I was comparing the difference between these people and ordinary people, but suddenly I heard a "humming" sound made by an object moving at high speed, and it was gradually approaching here from behind the metal door.Can't help but frown, this voice... what is it?

"Clang!!!" With a loud bang, the metal door was deformed and sent flying by a terrifying force.Those people in the arena seemed to know what they were about to face, and they all put on looks like they were facing a big enemy, and even a few people were so frightened that their legs went limp.

"Hoho...Kill...Kill you, kill you! Kill, kill, kill!!!" The obviously immature voice, mixed with a few beast-like roars, came out of the dust and smoke that had not yet dissipated.

A terrifying boy with one half of his body normal and the other half deformed suddenly appeared behind the two "decoys", and with his left hand, which was obviously superior to ordinary people, he directly knocked the two grown men into the air.

"Wow..." The surviving men around screamed and scattered.They all tried their best to avoid the attack of that weird boy, but one of them was not like this. Instead, he let out a roar, and his whole body was covered with a black pattern, which spread from the neck to the whole body.In an instant, a strange aura erupted from his body.

"Oh? Someone succeeded this time..." Seeing the man's strange behavior, Orochimaru couldn't help murmuring, and a trace of excitement flashed in the golden animal pupils.

success……?Is this change the "fruit" of his experiment?Without looking back, I secretly wrote down his soliloquy in my heart.It seems that Orochimaru's research is far more than just the "reincarnation technique". The mutation in front of him is very similar to the so-called "transformation"... In an instant, it exploded three times, no, five times the original strength, If it can be popularized stably, it will be really scary!

But... what does "someone succeeds this time" mean?Isn't that boy a test subject?Although obviously delirious, in my opinion, the boy's mutation is obviously much more proficient and stable than that of the man behind.Moreover, their mutation effects are not the same.

"'Monster'...'Monster', don't come close to me! Go to hell!!!" Analyzing the difference, a roar came from the training ground below.The man who has completed the transformation has that kind of black pattern all over his body, and the pupils and whites of his eyes are completely reversed, making the whole face extremely hideous.He also called others "monsters"... He was not far from a "monster" in this way.

The man's strength and speed have obviously increased several times, but his punches are as random as ordinary people.But purely in terms of strength, even with the ability blessing of the black pattern, it is still inferior to that boy.After a few blows, he was hit by the huge deformed fist until he vomited blood and fell to the ground.With good eyesight, you can even see the white brains spilling from his ears.

This difference in strength is really huge... I can only make the following evaluations for the situation below which is not so much a fight as a massacre.After a while, those people who were used as "bait" died cleanly.But looking at the boy's scarlet eyes, one can tell that his murderous nature has not completely dissipated, but it is much better than the initial rage.

Inadvertently tilting his head slightly, he was surprised to find Jun Ma Lu's excited eyes.After all, he still has the belligerent factor of the Huiye family that has been passed down for generations. He has no opponents in the original base, and it is rare for him to meet an opponent of similar strength and age.After watching for a while, Jun Malu, whose self-control was much stronger than before, still couldn't help showing the anticipation and desire in his eyes, the desire for fighting.

If you use the "Bone Vein", the difference shouldn't be too much... I wanted to let Junmaro take a practical trial, but I didn't make a sound, I just raised my eyebrows and looked at Orochimaru.

Orochimaru, who had been paying attention to our side, obviously guessed my intention, and nodded with a smile.It just so happens that this opportunity can be used to temporarily distract Jun Malu.

"Maru, have you seen the other party's movements clearly?" With permission, I didn't say it directly to Jun Malu, but asked such a question in a wrong way.

"See clearly!" Jun Malu returned confidently. After training with Dashewan for so long, his potential in dynamic vision has been fully tapped.The boy's speed did not pose a threat to him, but he had an advantage in terms of strength. However, he was very confident in his blood successor's defense!

"So, can you see clearly whether the opponent's eyes are murderous or murderous?" I was not surprised by his answer to the previous question, but the question I asked now obviously stumped him.

"This..." Jun Malu's tone suddenly became a little hesitant, and he only paid attention to the other party's movements for a while, and he didn't pay attention to this aspect at all.Now that I took a closer look, I found that although the whole body was full of murderous aura, there seemed to be two crystals shining in the corners of the boy's eyes.Is that... tears?

A trace of astonishment flashed across his face uncontrollably, and the fighting spirit in Jun Malu's heart that had been boiled by this discovery instantly cooled down.Why is this... Isn't he the one who shouted to kill someone before?why is he cryingWhy is it that he is full of murderous intent, but it gives the impression that...he doesn't want to kill? !

"Remember what I said?" The look on his face told me his answer, and I gave him a timely reminder.

What I want to teach him is how to kill the enemy.For those who can't help themselves and are forced to take action, if it is not necessary, I will not kill them all.Kindness?Of course not, I just don't want to kill to the extreme and distort Kimaro's values ​​and outlook on life.Only by seeing the essence of things can we truly judge the right and wrong of what we have done.

What's more, if I'm not wrong, that boy should be an important experimental subject of Orochimaru.If I accidentally "play" too far, I can't afford it.

"...Well, I understand." Recalling what I said to him yesterday, Jun Malu nodded, expressing that he knew what he should do: "I will stop him without any injuries!"

"Then... let's go." A faint smile flashed in my eyes, and I said softly.Watching him fly down the training ground, draw out the bone sword and attack the boy.

As soon as Junmaro left, I squinted my eyes and asked Dashemaru coldly: "Okay, can you explain to me?" The "real purpose" of bringing me and Junmaro here.

"Hehe...don't be so impatient..." Orochimaru waved the middle-aged man behind him to go out, and gently knocked on the armrest of the chair.

The regular sound of "Da Da Da..." echoed in the slightly empty room.I know that the main topic of this trip is about to come out.
