The Mechanical Empire of the End of the World

Chapter 206: Running Is Not Enough

"Huh..."

Take a deep breath, look at the blue sky, Li Meng said: "It's not that I'm faster than you, but the moment you punch, I know where you're going to attack. As long as I catch the attack route of your fist, your fist will naturally be blocked by me."

Is that so?

He got the answer, but Cruz had a new question in his mind.

Looking up at Cruz beside him, he said: "I know what you want to ask. This is not difficult, but it's not easy. The eyes are the windows of the soul. When you attack, the body will not betray itself, but the eyes will often betray itself. Cruz, if you want to become a strong man, you must pass the level in your heart."

The level in your heart?

Cruz knew what Li Meng was referring to, and lowered his head in frustration.

Seeing Cruz's frustrated look, Li Meng seemed to think of something, and his eyes lit up.

Standing up and facing Cruz, Li Meng said: "Cruz, let's play the staring game."

Staring game?

Cruise raised his head and asked cautiously, "What game is that?"

With a slight smile, Li Meng said, "You and I look at each other, whoever blinks first loses. There is only one rule, you can't use your body to make the other person blink, you must communicate with your eyes."

A trace of panic flashed across his face, and Cruise shook his head quickly, saying, "I... I don't want to play."

With both hands extended, Li Meng grabbed Cruise's shoulders, forced him to face himself, and said seriously, "Cruise, this game is very fun. If you beat me once, you can make a request to me, any request is fine, as long as I can do it, and this request can be saved first. When you grow up, wealth, beauty, power, etc., I can satisfy you."

Under Li Meng's temptation, Cruise's expression changed, and he was moved.

Although he has no interest in beauty, wealth, and power now, this "request" made him very moved.

Raising his head timidly, Cruz mustered up the courage to look at Li Meng and said weakly: "You...you can't lie to me."

Releasing Cruz's shoulders, Li Meng said carelessly: "Once a word is spoken, it can't be taken back. This is a man, I will never break my promise."

"Huh..."

Take a deep breath, Cruz looked at Li Meng and said: "Come on."

Laughing, Li Meng sat up straight and said: "Well, let's start."

On the grass, two small figures sat opposite each other, staring at each other blankly.

"Cruise, you have to look into my eyes, not into my eyebrows, and even more so, don't look at my nose bridge. I'm very sensitive. You can't hide it from me. I'll give you another chance."

"Don't let your eyes wander. Look into my eyes, look into my black pupils. If your eyes wander again, I'll rule you lose. I'll give you another chance. We're friends."

"You moved away again. Do you think I'm stupid? I told you you can't hide it from me. Look back. I'll give you another chance."

After a long time...

"I lost..."

Rubbing his dry eyes, there was only disappointment on Cruse's face.

Li Meng was too good. How could he win?

With a smile, Li Meng extended his right hand, patted Cruise's shoulder, and comforted him: "Don't be disappointed, come again next time, let's do this, the game will not be over before we leave Whale Island, it doesn't matter if you lose, as long as I don't lose, the game will not be over."

Cruz looked at Li Meng expectantly and said happily: "Really?"

Taking his hand back from Cruise's shoulder, Li Meng stood up and said: "Of course..."

As he said that, Li Meng extended his hand to Cruise and said: "It's getting late, let's go back."

"Yeah!"

Grabbing Li Meng's hand, Cruise stood up.

Then, the two turned and left the lake and entered the forest.

On the path in the forest, the two walked side by side, and the distant voices echoed in the forest.

"Cruise, you looked into my eyes for so long, are you still afraid to look me in the eye?"

"No... I don't know, Li Meng, your eyes are weird, very that..."

"Which one?"

"I don't know, I can't tell what you are thinking, but others are different."

"Because we are friends, all I want in my mind is to play games with you, without any other thoughts, without any thoughts, naturally no ideas."

"Is that so?"

"Of course it is, have I ever lied to you?"

"Well, I know, it should be like this, no, it must be like this."

In the forest trail, as the sound faded away, two small figures gradually disappeared at the end of the trail.

As time passed day by day, Li Meng's life on Whale Island also began.

Because of Li Meng's arrival and the arrival of the big ship in the bay, Whale Town gradually became lively.

On the tenth day after Li Meng arrived at Whale Island, the first merchant ship loaded with cargo finally sailed into the bay, and the No. 1 trading ship also welcomed the first seller.

Since then, two or three large and small cargo ships have arrived almost every day.

The arrival of the sellers and the demand for labor have brought business opportunities and jobs to the residents of Whale Town.

Time has passed quietly.

Whale Island, in the forest behind Emily Farm.

The forest is dark and noisy, with the chirping of cicadas and the flapping of birds' wings.

In the depths of the forest, a black shadow flashed by and ran wildly in the forest at a very fast speed.

Wherever the black shadow passed, there was only silence. The cicadas stopped calling, and the birds stood on the branches and looked at the guy running in the forest curiously.

"Where?"

Running wildly in the forest, Cruz looked around on both sides, not missing a shadow.

"Here..."

With a light sigh, a black shadow rushed out from the bushes on the front side and rushed straight towards Cruz.

Too fast, the opponent's speed was fast, and his speed was also fast, so Cruz had no time to react.

Facing Li Meng's flying kick, Cruz instinctively protected his chest with both hands.

"Bang..."

The strong wind rolled, and the huge force made Cruz's body fly backwards directly.

After flying twenty meters away, Cruz's small body fell to the ground.

When he was about to touch the ground, Cruz's hand reached out and hit the ground with one palm, and a backflip stabilized his body.

As soon as his feet touched the ground, Cruz jumped hard, flew into the air, and rushed into the branches six meters high.

"Cruz, you can't just run..."

Li Meng followed closely, but instead of jumping onto the branches with Cruz, he punched the tree trunk as big as a basin.

"Boom..."

The wind was rolling, wood chips were flying, and the tree as thick as a face was directly broken by Li Meng's fist and fell to the ground with a bang.

Before the tree fell, figures rushed out from the dense tree trunks and fell to the ground.

As soon as he landed, he jumped up and rushed into the depths of the forest again.
