Chapter 1 Activating the System
"Run! Those demons are here again!"
Shangguan Mo was awakened by the hurried shouting.
He opened his eyes in confusion and saw countless thin and yellow-faced people wearing coarse linen clothes fleeing from this small village as if they were facing a disaster.
He stared at this scene blankly, not knowing what was happening.
Suddenly, he felt dizzy, and then a strange memory suddenly appeared in his mind.
His last memory was that he picked up the charging iPhone, and then suddenly felt heartbreaking pain all over his body.
My vision went dark, and when I woke up, I saw the scene at the beginning.
"Tang Country, Qinghe Village..."
"demon……"
"where is this place……"
Shangguan Mo rubbed his somewhat swollen forehead and murmured.
It is surrounded by a small green village, and further away you can see square fields planted with rice. People here rely on these crops to make a living.
And he is an orphan in this village. When the farming season is busy, he will help in the fields of various families in exchange for some food and reward. But usually, like the villagers, he lives a life without competing with the world.
But I don't know what happened today. The villagers here ran away like crazy and fled outside the village.
Shangguan Mo frowned and quickly sorted out the extra memories in his mind, his expression suddenly changed in shock.
"The Cult of Evil God!"
"What the hell? This isn't the ninja world, is it! Am I dreaming?"
Shangguan Mo's scalp instantly became numb and he broke out in a cold sweat.
Snapped!
He slapped himself in the face.
Suddenly!
Visible to the naked eye was a bright red slap mark on his face.
"Hey! It's not a dream!"
When he reacted, he had no time to care about the burning pain on his face or the question of why he had traveled through time.
The only thought in his mind was to run!
In this body's original memory, those followers of the Evil God Cult were extremely cruel demons, and every appearance was accompanied by killing and destruction.
even!
His biological parents in this body were brutally murdered by those evil cult believers!
Shangguan Mo quickly glanced around, chose a less traveled path in his memory, and ran out.
This small village is already in chaos, and the crazy screams of demons and the cries of villagers have begun to be heard in the distance.
He couldn't help but look back.
Most of the sharp sickles in the hands of the followers of the evil cult were stained with blood. They were swinging them wildly at this moment. The terrified villagers seemed to have turned into ripe rice, being harvested one by one and falling in pieces. .
Shangguan Mo passed through the fleeing villagers and ran toward the overgrown path alone.
At this time, the followers of the Evil God Cult were all paying attention to the villagers who had gathered into a large army. Dozens of believers holding scythes were chasing the villagers who were panicking and seemed to be enjoying the fearful expressions of the villagers. For a moment, But no one paid attention to him, a young man.
Shangguan Mo's body was very weak at this time, he was not tall, and he looked malnourished.
He bent down and ran quickly through the grass, and was about to escape the sight of all the followers of the Evil God Cult.
at this time!
A believer of the Evil God who drew a strange pattern of an outer circle and an inner triangle with his blood on the ground, who seemed to have completed some mysterious ritual, suddenly froze for a moment when he raised his head to look for the next target.
In the distant woods, he seemed to see a figure fleetingly disappearing.
"That's... a villager?"
The believer with blood on his face was stunned for a moment and quickly reacted.
The blood all over his body began to boil with excitement.
"Yes! That's it! Run quickly!"
He moved and chased in the direction of Shangguan Mo.
……
Half an hour later!
The believer looked at the figure in front of him that had obviously slowed down a lot, and grinned excitedly.
"Are you out of strength? You can't escape my grasp!"
Shangguan Mo, who was in front, had already calmed down.
He groped for the past along the location of the river in his memory, and the plan in his mind gradually became clear.
Seeing the familiar yet unfamiliar forest and land in front of him, Shangguan Mo felt more confident about escaping.
He looked back at the back of the woods with a slight breath. The evil cult believer was about four to five hundred meters away from him, and this distance was rapidly shortening.
"From the initial distance of nearly a thousand meters to the current four or five hundred meters, this person has not been able to catch up with me, which means that he is just an ordinary person. At most, he is in better health and stronger than me, not those A ninja with chakra, otherwise, I would never be alive now! In other words, I still have a chance..."
The thoughts in Shangguan Mo's mind were spinning rapidly. The more critical this moment was, the clearer and calmer his mind actually became.
Da da da……
Two feet ran out of the phantom on the ground, making a heavy trampling sound, and thick dust and gray smoke rolled up behind him, which seemed to envelope his figure and made the people behind him gradually lose their sight.
The coarse linen clothes on Shangguan Mo's body rubbed wildly against the branches and thorns in the jungle. In just half an hour, his whole body seemed to have turned into a bloody man, and he looked shockingly red.
Gradually, Shangguan Mo saw the shadow of the small river.
As the distance got closer, his expression gradually became a little excited. His body was very good at water, and his predecessor often came here to fish and catch shrimps to satisfy his hunger.
Although this small river is not big, only five or six meters wide, the water is very deep, and you can't see the bottom at a glance.
The followers of the Evil God who were chasing after him saw him running straight to the river, and their expressions changed.
"No! This guy is going into the water!"
When he rushed to the river, there was no trace of Shangguan Mo in this area, leaving only the ripples still rippling slightly on the river, reminding him that the boy had indeed gotten into the water!
The believer's face was gloomy, his eyes quickly glanced around the river, and his expression suddenly became ferocious.
"Got you, kid!"
He saw a series of extremely fine small bubbles suddenly appearing on the water surface more than ten meters in front of him. It was very unnoticeable. If someone didn't know the situation, they would just think it was the bubbles spitted out by fish and shrimp in the water. .
You wouldn't have thought that someone was hiding in the water and taking a breath very carefully!
laugh!
The blade of the sickle cut across the water to a depth of nearly two meters, and soon a scarlet color appeared on the surface of the river, rapidly spreading to the surrounding areas.
"Hahaha, run away for me!"
The believer put away the scythe and laughed wildly with pride. However, he was not in a hurry to swing the scythe again. Instead, he took his time to admire the enchanting red color on the water and nodded excitedly, seeming to be very satisfied with his masterpiece.
underwater.
Shangguan Mo clutched the wound on his arm tightly, but gradually his face turned pale and his whole body became weak due to excessive blood loss.
He originally planned to lurk under the water and sneak away while the enemy was not paying attention, but what he didn't expect was that now was the low tide season!
The water is only two or three meters deep, and even the slightest movement cannot be concealed from those who are observing carefully on the shore.
Just when he felt increasingly weak and desperate, he didn't notice that some of the blood actually flowed towards an emerald ring on his left hand.
This was something he found at a flea market in his previous life. He thought it looked good, so he bought it and kept it on his hand. But for some reason, this jade ring actually followed him to the ninja world.
Just when Shangguan Mo was losing consciousness, he suddenly noticed that the index finger of his left hand seemed to be bitten by something, and a pain like a needle prick came, pulling his attention away.
The pain became more and more intense, and then it seemed to begin to shrink, making him feel as if his left index finger would be broken in the next moment!
He stretched out his right hand covering the wound on his arm and tried to pull off the ring. He didn't want to suffer this inhuman torture when he was about to die. However, he found that the ring seemed to have roots on his finger and he couldn't pull it off no matter what. Do not move.
"W-what's going on? And isn't this ring from my previous life? Why did it follow me here?"
he thought in disbelief.
Immediately, a simple blank panel appeared in Shangguan Mo's mind, but it looked very blurry, as if a second pair of eyes had appeared in his mind!
Then, a few lines of words suddenly appeared on the originally blank panel.
