After walking out of the Classics Museum, Lin Mo stood on the high platform at the entrance of the library and looked into the distance.
The vast Baili Lake looks like a rare sapphire under the sun.
In the distance of the gem, the sight spreads, and there is a palace that looks like a blue giant ray.
That is the center of the academy, Baili Palace.
It is a place where foreign affairs tasks are received, and it is also a place where large gatherings are held.
Generally speaking, if you want to graduate from the academy, you must pass the annual assessment. The focus of the assessment is naturally the realm, but the prerequisite for the assessment is to complete a series of external tasks.
The latter is similar to extracurricular practice. The general idea is that in addition to having a state of mind, students and disciples must also have equal combat power.
‘Maybe it’s also a way to supplement the academy’s finances.’
Lin Mo secretly guessed.
Because in previous lives, some technical colleges also had similar practical activities, sending students to some corporate factories to obtain benefits.
But no matter what the purpose is, these are the rules. If you can't break the rules, you have to abide by them.
He looked into the distance.
Baili Lake is surrounded by blue waves, and the wind blows, causing wrinkles and ripples.
In the sky, you can see fish and birds.
They have the heads of carps and the bodies of flying birds, with feathers like cattail leaf fans. They fly across the lake along with the blowing wind, catching some unintelligent swimming fish along the way.
Finally disappeared into the sky.
'It's time to contact the mission teammates.'
Lin Mo didn't think any more, got up and came to the pier, ready to board the speedboat and go to the place where Heiluo told him.
Since according to what Ixuna said, it is better to graduate as soon as possible now, then it would be better for him to graduate as soon as possible.
After all, he has already acquired the Sea Clan's water element cultivation method, and it is a complete version that can directly reach the Sea Envoy realm. It is not surprising that the method is missing.
In addition, graduating early means that he will be able to move freely, and he can walk around Haiyuan, Qihai, and even Chixian Road without any scruples.
It can be said that freedom is regained.
He left the Geoduck Building exit and then followed the spiral staircase to the speedboat dock.
Not long after, the speedboat arrived.
But when he boarded the speedboat, there was someone he knew on the boat.
"Huh? Brother Ao? Why are you here?" said a delighted voice.
Lin Mo paid the shipping fee and looked sideways.
They were a man and a woman. The man was tall and tall, with a shiny forehead and sparse hair, only three strands.
The woman is petite, wearing a white butterfly hairpin, and her hair is draped over her shoulders.
It's Renekton.
No wonder no one is often seen in the dormitory. I originally thought that I had been practicing in the instructor's residence and was practicing too hard. I didn't expect that Qingqing had some free time, but he went to fall in love.
"I came to this classics library to take a look." Lin Mo's face showed no signs of strangeness and he nodded in reply.
"This library is not a nice place. Many things have to be graded, which is very unfriendly to us freshmen." Renekton touched the three hairs on his head, lowered his head and smiled bitterly.
"Yes, take your time, the later levels will be enough." Lin Mo nodded in agreement. He did not show off or hit people at will. Therefore, he pretended to empathize with others.
After all, he had a good opinion of the little guy Renekton. During the time when he first entered school, he was one of the few people who didn't care about his mixed-blood seaman talent and was willing to chat with him sincerely.
"Yes, I heard from the teacher that it is very easy to get into higher education in the first four years. You only need to focus on your realm. As for the tasks, usually the senior brother will take care of them." Renekton nodded,
"Of course, if it's inconvenient for senior brother, you can still spend money. There are people specializing in this business next to Baili Palace. I have channels. If you need it, Brother Ao, I will go..."
"Okay, Renekton." The petite girl on the side suddenly interrupted, "I want to drink a watermelon milk drink, please accompany me to buy it."
There is a special milk shop on the speedboat, but it is at the other end and the price is expensive.
"This... okay, I'll just buy it for you, but can you let me finish my words first..." Renekton whispered.
The girl pouted her little mouth, turned her head, and didn't answer.
Renekton sighed secretly and looked at Lin Mo at a loss.
Lin Mo smiled and shook his head.
He was relieved: "Brother Ao, I will tell you when I go back to the dormitory next time. If you need anything, remember to find it..."
Before he finished speaking, the girl next to him walked straight to the other end of the speedboat.
"Wait for me, Xiao Ai." Renekton became anxious, clasped his hands towards Lin Mo, and said silently, "Well, Brother Ao, see you next time."
Lin Mo also nodded silently as a farewell.
He turned around and found an empty seat to sit down, and then admired the scenery of Baili Lake.
He naturally felt the dissatisfaction of the woman next to Renekton towards him. He didn't know the specific reason, but it didn't matter.
Just like a person walking on the road, would he care about the happiness, anger, sorrow and joy of the ants under his feet?
In the sea of people, the two of them were just passers-by after all.
Soon, Lin Mo put the matter behind him.
the other side.
Renekton took a cup of watermelon milk drink, and then carefully handed it to Sia beside him.
"Xiao Ai, come and drink milk."
Without saying a word, the girl took the milk drink and drank it by herself.
Renekton was hesitating on the sidelines.
"What's wrong? I have something to say." Xi Ai deliberately waited for a few breaths, then put the milk drink on the table beside him, folded his hands and said with a frown.
"This..." Renekton touched his forehead and said cautiously, "Xiao Ai, Brother Ao is a very nice person. Don't be angry."
He and Xi Ai were from the Hai tribe who came from the same place, and they were childhood sweethearts.
Because of his outstanding talent, he is well-known in the local sea, so naturally we are very close and have a good relationship with him.
Later, due to Lian Hai's awakening, Baili Academy recruited Hairen from the Water Dragon Clan, and the two of them were sent to Baili Island to practice martial arts.
But everything changed after arriving on the island.
This childhood sweetheart of mine suddenly became strange and had a very changeable temper.
"You mean, you're blaming me for interrupting your conversation?" The girl smiled and asked.
Renekton opened his mouth, with a troubled look on his face, but said nothing.
Xi Ai sighed when he saw this.
"I said Renekton, we finally came out of the Silver Ring Sea, do you still want to go back to that life where you can't see the light?"
"?" Renekton was stunned, "Xiao Ai, what are you talking about..."
He does like his current life, with many resources, many mentors, and the ability to learn a lot, but he also does not reject life in his hometown.
Because those are his beautiful memories.
"What did I say..." Xi Ai had a hateful expression on her face, took a deep breath, and pretended that her patience was about to run out:
"In the Yinhuan Sea, you and I can only reach the Hui level even though we try our best. It may seem like a beautiful place, but as long as there are some wind and waves on the sea, what does one or two Hui level mean?
You see now, as long as you and I work hard, we can reach the Jiao level, not to mention the Jiao level. By then, we can settle in this Baili Sea, and our children can continue to practice in the academy.
And what brother Ao are you talking about? He is just a mixed-blooded seaman. He has always failed even in double-selection of mentors. Once the age is up and he cannot graduate, he will be expelled.
When you date him, do you also want to live that kind of life? Will you be kicked out like him when the time comes? Return to Yinhuanhai? "
"Let me tell you, if that day comes, don't blame me for throwing you away! In fact, you also know that with your bloodline, no one but me will treat you sincerely!"
Xia said patiently, but she didn't realize that the smile on Renekton's face, who had been smiling innocently, was a little forced.
He knew that it was not all because of Lin Mo that Xi Ai said so much to him and her tone was so rude.
The real reason is that some time ago, he rejected Xi Ai's many invitations.
The kind of invitation to play that comes from a good disciple in the family.
Xi Ai wanted to integrate into the upper class circle, but Renekton didn't want to go in, because those so-called upper class circles always have their own arrogance, talk and act aggressively, but they also pretend to be good for you, which is very annoying.
accurate.
For this reason, although the other party was not angry on the surface, he was coldly and violently beaten many times.
And what happened today was actually the trigger.
"I've said so much, but you can't respond at all? Do you think I'm doing this all for myself?" Shea noticed Renekton's strange behavior and finally asked quietly.
Renekton forced out a wry smile and shook his head.
"Then will you make me angry again?"
He shook his head again.
Xia then turned from anger to joy, hugged Renekton's arm, and happily drank the watermelon milk drink.
Renekton still didn't speak. He didn't look at the people beside him, but looked at Baili Lake in front of him.
The smoke is vast and the water mist is lingering.
He couldn't help but think back to his past time in Yinhuanhai.
A wonderful time for two people together.
And now.
I don’t know why, although we are in a better place together, the time is no longer so beautiful...
"Instructor of the Lock of the Deep Sea, the nature of the water element has changed into water-type mutation, suppression, and blockade, so most of the disciples recruited are water-type..."
Youyun Island.
Lin Mo got off the speedboat and looked at the handwriting flowing like water on the stone tablet in front of him, thinking to himself.
In this pursuit mission in Black Snail, his collaborators were the two seventh-year disciples of the Deep Sea Lock mentor.
He is extremely good at blocking and suppressing, so he serves as an auxiliary personnel.
Although they are not very strong in frontal combat, if they cooperate with others, they can easily achieve the effect of one plus one greater than two.
Lin Mo walked towards the center of the island.
Most of the island's surroundings are water trees, growing in swamps.
The sunlight shining on the leafless trees seemed to become depressed and dull.
This Youyun Island is different from Heishan Island. It is not the exclusive territory of a mentor, so there are many people there.
From time to time there would be hurried people coming and going.
However, because of the swampy area, there are no obvious forest trails. At first glance, there are tall trees.
The entire island is like a huge tree array, with naked and leafless trees on all sides, and everything else is sinking in the swamp.
There seems to be a sense of blockade and suppression.
Lin Mo wandered around for two times, and finally found a Hairen disciple at random, and hung him up behind him in a leisurely manner.
It was about tea time, and the trees on both sides became shorter and shorter, and the swamp area became less and less.
finally.
Suddenly, a patch of hills and hills appeared in front of my eyes.
From this we can see that the mountain roads lead up to the buildings in twos and threes on the mountain.
The buildings are mixed in among the huge blue coral forests.
This kind of tree is also found in Heishan Island. It can release a fragrance that has the effect of refreshing the mind and activating water. It is very precious. And here, it can be found all over the mountain.
'We've arrived.'
Lin Mo looked up along the road up the mountain.
The living area of the mentor named Lock of the Deep Sea is in a place called the Bay on the mountain.
'Now it's time to find where the two senior brothers are.'
He headed up the mountain and moved forward.
Soon, they came to a martial arts arena on the mountainside.
Several pairs of people were sparring around them, making sounds of shouting and beating.
This is a real fight.
Lin Mo even saw a strong man with one horn who was nearly three meters tall, holding a black whip six to seven meters long, violently beating another person.
There was a huge gap in strength between the two. The other was beaten with a black whip until his flesh and blood were bloody, and blood splashed everywhere like broken pearls.
But even so, I still persevere and keep looking for opportunities. It can be said that I am very strong.
Lin Mo looked at it for a while, feeling awe-struck.
He secretly thought that the sparring was so serious and ferocious. This sea tribe was truly extraordinary. He couldn't help but understand the law of the jungle in the abyss.
He couldn't help but move farther away, and suddenly saw a man standing still, and his eyes lit up.
"Hello." He quickly came closer and greeted politely.
"Excuse me, do you know where the residences of Senior Brother Qiya and Lushan, who are mentors of Deep Sea Lock Uruguay, are?"
The man had curly hair and was wearing a black cloak. He was slightly startled, then raised his head, revealing a face without any trace of color.
The two looked at each other.
No words were spoken.
This is a weirdo.
"Excuse me." Lin Mo didn't ask again and decided to try someone else.
"How dare you interfere in my duel? I'll beat you to death!"
Just as he was about to leave, a loud shout suddenly came from a distance, and before the sound could even finish, a harsh whistling of air sounded in his ears.
"Huh?" Lin Mo frowned and raised his hand slightly.
Bang!
A black python-like whip full of spikes was firmly blocked by the pale palm.
The one-horned man who was killing others before was now standing behind him with a ferocious smile on his face.
"Where did you come from, you bastard? How dare you interfere in my duel? You want to die!" The horn on the big man's head shimmered blue.
Behind him, the surging water energy surged, and five thin pythons swam among them.
The rock-like muscles look extremely hard, but they are constantly moving like living creatures.
"Did you admit the wrong person?" Lin Mo felt a little confused. He didn't know this person at all!
Even seeing that the other party was a bit cruel, he decisively stayed away.
He looked at the whip full of barbs and the other party's behavior of first cracking the whip and then shouting violently, with a complicated look in his eyes.
"Moreover, this senior brother, is there something wrong with you taking action for no reason?" Lin Mo asked in a deep voice.
The people who were sparring around him gradually came closer at this time.
Wow.
The strong man with one horn grabbed the other end of the whip and stretched and pulled it.
"You passed by my duel for no reason, distracted me, and wanted to harm me, right? Pretend I don't know!"
"Distracting you? What happens next?" Lin Mo turned around and looked at the other person up and down expressionlessly.
"Then, if you walk around randomly, you will naturally have to pay the price!"
The strong man's voice became longer, and finally he suddenly shouted loudly and disappeared from the spot.
He was extremely fast, and once he whipped his whip, the long black whip disappeared into the air and appeared around the end of the forest in an instant.
The whip shadow also brought with it a sense of oppression, making it difficult for Lin Mo to move.
Almost instantly.
The black whip entangled the forest.
The latter seemed to have just reacted and slapped his hand lightly.
The strong man refused to dodge, and the smile on his face became more and more ferocious.
The black whip is called the Sea Whip. Once it is entangled, both water element and strength will be suppressed.
Once entangled, even if the realm is higher than his, it will only be a fat fish waiting to be slaughtered.
"Since you have done something wrong, you must be punished. No matter what, I lost two arms today! But don't worry, I won't beat you to death. I will only make you remember this memory..." Boom!
The strong man's words were interrupted, his eyes bulged, and his body couldn't help but bend down like a cooked shrimp.
Lin Mo expressionlessly tore off the black whip on his body and lifted the other person up.
"What were you talking about just now?..." he said softly.
