Preparing to Traverse Again
Since the three women have already committed the heinous act of kidnapping, they must have given up hope of rescue and are likely to target others next. Given their combined strength, the rescuers have almost no chance of winning.
Therefore, although everyone felt some fear towards the mysterious man in black who killed three foreigners last night, they were mostly grateful. He not only saved the two flight attendants but also eliminated a huge threat for them.
But one person thought differently.
Bodyguard Wang Jianqiang was very resistant to this mysterious man, and even felt strongly threatened by him.
Almost all of them were women and wounded soldiers. He was the only strong man, and it was thanks to his intimidation that everyone was able to survive on the island An Ran. Otherwise, they would have been taken advantage of by the three foreigners long ago.
The fish he caught each day made up a large portion of everyone's food; his catch alone was equivalent to that of two or three of them.
As he gradually realized his importance, the bodyguard began to subtly assume the role of a leader, frequently issuing orders and directing others, and becoming less respectful to the elderly man than before.
However, he did put in a lot of effort, and everyone else just silently endured it.
Now that the three foreigners are dead, the island can be said to have become his territory, and he will be in complete control. This mysterious person who suddenly appeared will undoubtedly affect his rule.
However, he was not afraid. As an elite bodyguard, his strength was beyond doubt; otherwise, he would not have become the personal bodyguard of the Chairman Zhongheng Group.
Although he couldn't guarantee victory against the three tall, burly foreigners wielding spears, he was confident that he would never lose to anyone in a one-on-one fight.
In his mind, this mysterious person was hiding and his strength was probably not that high. He must have taken advantage of the fact that the three foreigners were not paying attention when they kidnapped the two women, and then suddenly attacked and killed the three of them. He was confident that if it were him, he could have done the same.
Seeing the deep gratitude and admiration on the faces of the two flight attendants as they recounted how the mysterious man had saved them, a glint flashed in the bodyguard's eyes, and he suddenly spoke up.
"We need to be careful of this person!"
"He's been hiding in the shadows, so he must be up to something. And the fact that he killed these three people so casually means he must have killed a lot of people before. He's probably a fugitive, a killer, or some other dangerous person."
Wang Jianqiang would never have imagined that his fabricated story to smear Chen Mo would actually work.
Upon hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, Zhang Lan and the other person immediately refuted him.
"But he did save both of us, and he didn't hurt either of us!"
Chen Mo saved them, and they cannot allow others to smear him.
"No matter what, he's a murderer and should be executed according to the law!"
The two little girls standing nearby had already guessed from Zhang Lan's words that the mysterious man in black who saved them must be the uncle who rescued them from the cabin and secretly gave them food.
Hearing Wang Jianqiang say this about him now, he retorted angrily.
"Don't forget, the food we found on the beach was all given to us by this uncle!"
Upon hearing this, Su Wan suddenly realized why the two little girls were so lucky to always find food on the beach; it turned out that this mysterious person had been helping them through the two girls.
That makes sense. Last time, when those three foreigners snatched their canned food, it must have been him who secretly taught them a lesson!
It turns out that there was a mysterious person protecting them all along.
If it weren't for him, they really wouldn't have been able to hold on until now.
Su Wan immediately voiced her guess, and everyone agreed.
No wonder they had been wondering how the two little girls could have such good luck; it turned out that this mysterious person had been helping them in secret.
Seeing that Su Wan was also speaking up for the mysterious man, and that everyone, including the captain and the old man, looked on in agreement, Wang Jianqiang was secretly annoyed, but he didn't say anything more. However, he secretly looked at Su Wan with a hint of ferocity in his eyes.
Chen Mo, who was watching from the nearby woods, sneered inwardly.
Although the remaining survivors on the island knew of Chen Mo's existence, Chen Mo still did not show himself. If he were to appear in front of them, Chen Mo would have to cover his face, and he did not want to wear a full suit of armored combat gear 24 hours a day.
For the survivors on the island, it was a struggle for survival, but for Chen Mo, it was a vacation.
On this isolated desert island, without the need for intrigue, scheming, or even fighting, Chen Mo could simply watch over the survivors like God. This was a rare moment of relaxation for him. If the three foreigners hadn't gone too far and crossed Chen Mo's line, Chen Mo wouldn't have even considered killing them.
Unlike in the movie world, where Chen Mo is always highly tense, calm, and decisive, returning to the real world is like returning home from the battlefield. Chen Mo's murderous aura suddenly disappears, and he becomes relaxed, calm, and gentle.
With Chen Mo's current strength, as long as he doesn't do anything reckless on Earth, he poses no threat whatsoever. There's absolutely no need for him to be so murderous and aggressive all the time.
As usual, Chen Mo would take out a hammock from a tree where the survivors couldn't see him, hang it up in shorts and a t-shirt, and lie down on it, looking like he was on a beach vacation.
After they slept in their simple shelter at night, he crawled into his large tent, wrapped himself in a sleeping bag, and fell asleep An Ran.
Chen Mo, like God, remained hidden in the shadows, constantly monitoring the survivors' every move and regularly "airdropping" supplies to ensure their survival.
Chen Mo asked himself if he was a truly good person; he was willing to do anything for himself and his family.
However, he doesn't consider himself a bad person. When others encounter danger or difficulties, he is willing to lend a helping hand, provided that it doesn't threaten him.
Just like before on the plane, when Chen Mo was escaping the plane that could explode at any moment, he casually took the two women with him with him, because it wouldn't take him much time.
Chen Mo, however, would not risk his life to rescue the other survivors on the plane. Call him Coldblood or selfish, he felt he had a clear conscience.
As for secretly helping the remaining survivors, besides his own conscience—not wanting to see them starve to death— Chen Mo had other considerations in mind.
Although he treated this life on the deserted island as a vacation to relax, Chen Mo still habitually began to plan and strategize in advance.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so idle as to secretly hide nearby, constantly observing the actions of all the survivors.
His observations were more of a scrutiny; Chen Mo knew everyone's personality, character, and style of doing things.
Chen Mo initially valued the three foreigners quite a bit. They had remained relatively calm in the early stages of the plane crash and possessed excellent physical abilities, making them excellent candidates for henchmen. However, he did not expect that the three men were of such poor character and had such weak willpower that they lost themselves in the struggle for survival and desire. In the end, Chen Mo had no choice but to kill them with his own hands.
Soon, a month had passed, and the space in Chen Mo's mind had changed again.
The void of spatial boundaries became transparent once again, and the dazzling, the Starry Night- like scene outside the space reappeared.
Unlike last time, this time there are two bright orbs that appear outside the space, representing worlds that can be traversed.
Clearly, after his experience in the Captain America world, Chen Mo's mental strength has become much stronger than before.
Two orbs of light appeared, which means that Chen Mo can choose to travel to one of the two worlds.
Chen Mo channeled his consciousness into the space, focusing it on the two orbs of light, and two fragmented and chaotic images entered Chen Mo's mind.
These images are projections of the world connected to the light sphere that Chen Mo obtained after his abilities were enhanced.
