I'm the Mysterious Leader of the Salvation Organization-Chapter 427
Chapter 427
Perduto.
Li Mo.
He was one of the strongest crime-hunters in World, living by the seaside year-round. He possessed a mastery of swordsmanship and a power that made it hard for anyone to sense his killing intent.
Li Mo was sleeping soundly.
He saw a white flame.
That was one of the Rainbows, a calling from the Steel Throne.

[Save me, please.]
[Imperial Guards, Night Watcher, Babel Tower, they have already embraced the belief in the Black Abyss Deep Sea, harnessing the power of the Outer God to seal me... World is on the verge of destruction by them.]
[Now only you can come to Tatsumi City, break the seal, rescue me, and save Noah.]
[As long as you can break the seal, I will fulfill your greatest long-standing wish. Your desire is...]
Li Mo suddenly opened his eyes, took a deep breath, and remembered what had happened a few days ago.
At this moment, he had already arrived in Tatsumi City.
The crime-hunters have taken it upon themselves to hunt down evil and eliminate the supernatural and cultists. They are a special group that has been passed down since ancient times, but nowadays, they are fading away more and more.
Saving World has always been the most important duty of the crime-hunters.
This is not only an act of justice, but also something that should be done by all people.
At least, Li Mo had been educated this way since he was little.
"The fathers" were raising him.
Li Mo was born and raised in a crime-hunter organization called "Sea of Fantasy," located in a remote area of the wilderness, near the shores of the Sea of Fantasy, belonging to no country.
There, the mighty "fathers" would choose all kinds of children and raise them into powerful crime-hunters, one after another.
These crime-hunters were sent to different places, hunting down evil and slaying cultists.
And the crime-hunter who had lived past fifty without succumbing to death would step back and become a new "father," taking on a supporting role.
"Huff..."
Li Mo, in the dim room of the hotel, neither turned on the light nor lay on the bed. Instead, they leaned against a corner that concealed their line of sight.
He had just fallen asleep like that for a little while.
According to the new prophecy, Li Mo had already learned how to "save World."
Inside the souls of over a thousand ordinary people, there is a key that holds the power to unlock a seal. This key must be found from Tatsumi City in order to rescue the Steel Throne and ultimately save World of Noah.
In the deep sea organization, it is forbidden to unlawfully kill innocent people. No matter how mighty a crime-hunter may be, if they unjustly take innocent lives, the deep sea organization will execute them at any cost.
This kind of perseverance was very difficult. Many years ago, the deep sea had almost perished because of it.
Li Mo fell into silence.
To save World or to indiscriminately kill the innocent, which is of greater importance... He didn't know how to make a choice and could only wait calmly for the "fathers" to discuss and issue orders through a ceremony.
He was merely a weapon of the "deep sea" itself.
However, the barrier suddenly brought down by Tatsumi City inadvertently blocked outsiders, even preventing any communication from reaching them.
So, in the absence of any orders, Li Mo simply chose not to choose anything at all.
He is sleeping.
In this way, they casually found a hotel with few people, chose a room that nobody was staying in and had no electricity, and simply slept in a corner. freewebnoveℓ.com
Li Mo, a boy who loved sleeping very much, had a passion for this activity like no other.
And not only could he fall asleep at any time and any place, but his "shutdown time" only took a mere second.
Just at that moment, he heard a cry for help coming from outside.
She was a young girl, probably around six or seven years old, maybe not even in primary school yet.
And she happened to be one of the over one thousand "backup keyholders", within her body possibly lies the key that can unlock the seal and save the Steel Throne.
In World, most people still prefer to believe in the Steel Throne rather than the Babel Tower.
Just like a brave Norse warrior who suddenly receives a money transfer from the thunder god Saul, telling him to come and rescue himself. Then, out of nowhere, a mysterious outsider appears and claims that they are the ones who are truly good, and that Saul is a traitor who has long joined forces with the frost giants... any normal person would give the outsider a disgusted look.
If it wasn't for the Imperial Guards of the Air Alliance witnessing the devastating power of the Blank Fire and losing their comrades in real, they probably wouldn't have been so resolute in their unity with the Babel Tower front line.
Li Mo stood nearby, looking down with an expressionless face.
The little girl was being chased by a purple monster with octopus-like tentacles. The enormous octopus had the size of a bus and kept spewing out venom that corroded the ground. It was getting closer and closer to the little girl.
"Help, help!" she cried desperately.
The little girl sobbed and trembled in fear, on the verge of collapsing.
She could see herself being caught and killed.
A beam of sword light, as if splitting the darkness of night, descended from the sky like a bright day.
This power had no killing intent, yet it was capable of slaying everything in its path. The purple giant octopus was split into two.
(Translated by Gravity Tales ??)
Flesh and blood scattered, becoming incredibly nauseating.
The little girl knelt down on the ground, her mind in a daze. After a while, she finally regained her composure and realized that she had escaped the danger.
She gazed over in a daze and saw a tall and incredibly handsome man walking towards her.
Li Mo calmly looked at the little girl in her pink dress on the ground. She had an ordinary appearance, with a round and chubby face. Her eyes looked at him with evident curiosity and fear.
"Fear?" Li Mo pondered for a moment, realizing it was because of the gruesome appearance of the octopus.
"Name," he said.
The little girl was stunned for a moment. Honestly, she had never seen such a handsome big brother before. He simply didn't seem like a person from reality.
The big brother was truly handsome and charming, as if he were a deity who had descended from the heavens.
"My name is Xiao Guo," she said, then burst into tears, "Xiao Guo's mom, mommy is gone! Sob... sob... Xiao Guo wants to find mommy, sob..."
Li Mo had a blank expression on his face.
This little girl was one of the "alternate key holders". In order to save World, she should be killed immediately.
Li Mo understood the reason behind it.
But since the "fathers" had not given the command yet, there was no harm in not killing her.
"Big Brother, are you going to take Xiao Guo to find Mommy?" Xiao Guo couldn't help but ask, wiping her nose and pretending to be brave.
"Where is home?" Li Mo asked again.
"It seems like it's in the Platinum Zone, on the 5th floor! Yes, it's on the 5th floor!"
Clearly, Xiao Guo was also unaware of the exact location of her home.
Hmm, the Platinum Zone, it seems like an area where aristocrats and wealthy people live. Li Mo was familiar with the terrain of Tatsumi City and had done prior research.
Li Mo fell silent for a moment, feeling a bit drowsy. But he still nodded and said, "Come."
After he finished speaking, he calmly walked towards the Platinum Zone.
Xiao Guo quickly caught up with Li Mo. At first, she was a little scared and couldn't speak, but later on, she couldn't help but chattering away.
"Big brother, what is your name?"
"Is my mom looking for me? If she can't find me, will she be scared?"
"Big brother, why aren't you talking? You're not mute... are you sometimes mute?"
But no matter what the little girl said, Li Mo didn't say anything, he just calmly walked forward with her.
He cherished every word, using them sparingly.
The two of them walked towards the Platinum Zone at a leisurely pace, encountering one transcendent being after another along the way. The Doomsday Race tried to ambush them, but Li Mo effortlessly dealt with each one.
They finally arrived at the Platinum Zone. Afterwards, they embarked on a purposeless search, like finding a needle in a haystack, for the little girl's mother.
"Stop! The little girl behind you is our target!"
Just then, someone stood in front of them, and Li Mo had no choice but to come to a halt.
In front of Li Mo stood a bald man with numerous mechanical arms. One of his eyes was made of a black crystal, and his outfit looked incredibly high-tech.
"Give her up, or you will meet an unfortunate end," said the bald scientist, H1-K7.
Li Mo remained silent.
"How? You don't want to? Hehe, this matter is not up to you."
Li Mo stayed silent.
"Why aren't you speaking? Are you perhaps mute?"
Li Mo shook his head and said, "No."
The bald man stared for a moment, suddenly feeling as if he had been insulted and looked down upon. Anger surged within him!
"Go away and never come back!"
As soon as the words were spoken, a battle ensued. Mechanical beings emerged rapidly from the ground, floating cannons became visible in the sky, and snipers from a distance also launched attacks in Li Mo's direction.
The attack was immense, but Li Mo remained calm and composed. He simply brandished his sword, without a hint of urgency.
His sword blade resembled the waves of the sea, flowing like ripples.
True seawater gushed forth, creating a deep blue barrier that effortlessly withstood all incoming attacks.
"What is this thing? Your special power?"
The bald scientist was completely stunned by the sight.
In fact, he was an extraordinary person without any special powers, just like Alan. But he didn't feel the least bit inferior to those lucky ones who were born with innate abilities.
This time, the bald man had come alone. He had already separated from the others in order to secure the "top prize" early on. He thought he wouldn't encounter any tough challenges, but he didn't expect the other party to be quite formidable.
"Go away!" he shouted angrily.
Suddenly, numerous machines rushed towards the barrier, unleashing a powerful self-destructive force.
"Boom!"
Thick smoke billowed up.
Next, the bald scientist looked up and saw the incredibly handsome man, holding a little girl in his arms, hastily rushing out of the smoke in a disheveled state.
"Close your eyes," Li Mo whispered.
Xiao Guo immediately covered her eyes with both hands.
"Surprisingly, he's still alive!"
The bald man below was both surprised and angry. He wanted to launch his remaining tricks, but suddenly felt dizzy and everything around him started spinning.
The blade had already cut through, and the head rolled swiftly to the ground. The lightning-fast sword didn't give him a chance to continue attacking. It seemed that Li Mo was instantly killed with a single blow.
As he landed on the ground, Li Mo gently set down the little girl, calmly wiped the bloodstains off the sword's blade, and said nothing.
Then, he swung his arm back and thrust another sword into the fallen "corpse," piercing it completely.
"No!"
The bald head that had fallen to the ground suddenly let out a desperate and miserable scream as it rolled around.
Li Mo slightly turned his head.
Hmm, the head is just a decoration, and the data core is here, right? In that case, it must be truly dead.
After killing the enemy, Li Mo continued moving forward with the little girl.
"Big brother, you're so kind. You saved me again."
"I still don't know your name, big brother. What is your name? Why are you a little bit mute?"
"Big brother, big brother, are you deaf? I may have misunderstood you, thinking you were mute."
Just when Li Mo was starting to get a little impatient, another person appeared out of nowhere on the street and decisively stopped him and the little girl.
He is called "Mysterious Magic".
He is a dual-qualified sorcerer, loyal to both the Babel Tower and the Demon Hunt Agency.
"Um, I found it."
Another extraordinary being from outside, Alan pondered silently. Fortunately, he didn't directly kill the little girl.
Alan spoke calmly, "Let's keep her here."
To be honest, Li Mo had grown a little tired of hearing this sentence along the way.
"The girl might be the key to saving World. We have to take control... I'll give you a chance to leave."
