She rejected the Hanabusa House's invitation to stay.
Lingsu and the others walked slowly on the road under the night sky, walking in the direction of the hotel they had temporarily stayed in.
Probably because of the warning of the Hanabusa House,
The group, who already knew that a storm was coming, walked on the street they had already walked on before.
They seemed to have already felt that the demonic aura in the capital was beginning to thicken.
It was spreading in all directions.
It was so sticky that it made people do evil.
It was the smell of evil spirits in hell.
The teenagers couldn't help but shiver.
Humans naturally couldn't feel the demonic aura, but they felt that this road seemed to be colder than before.
The Funerary Deities, who relied on Lingsu's spiritual power to exist in the world, Choi and Knee Bolus, felt that at this moment,
This aura was so oppressive that it made them feel a little uncomfortable.
They were swords and knives on the verge of falling.
This kind of dark and viscous aura was similar to their corrupted souls. If they were slightly careless,
If they were careless, it would pull them deeper into the abyss.
Choi endured secretly.
He didn't try to ask the Divine Inquisitor for help.
Although he didn't have the arrogance of a famous knife or an ancient knife.
He didn't say it out loud.
He just felt that there was no need to do so.
Other than his stupid brother, he probably didn't care about anything and didn't want to give up.
Even he himself,
Didn't care about good or bad.
Knee Bolus wanted to care about his brother, but he couldn't even take care of himself.
He had seen swords and knives that fell in the dark.
He had also killed them and interacted with them.
He knew how ugly a knife was after its soul was invaded by darkness.
He didn't want himself and his brother to become like that.
How to speak to this Ji Jun — Knee Bolus was thinking, when he saw the Divine Inquisitor in front of him suddenly stop.
"Both of them have such stubborn personalities.
Is it because its main body is a saber? "Under the dim yellow light,
Under the dim light, the white-haired girl stood quietly on the street.
Her body emitted a gentle and warm light.
She turned around and her gaze fell on the two knives behind her. She raised her hand and waved at them. She sighed slightly. "Come here."
.....
The Divine Inquisitors put amulets on Choi and Knee Bolus.
The amulet was a bracelet made of red string. It could be extended or shortened. No matter where it was worn, it would fit perfectly.
In fact, they had seen this red knot before.
When the two strange men from the Akatsuki came to This Pill, the Divine Inquisitor had given such knots to every Katana in This Pill at that time.
However, the knots that were given to the two of them were forgotten in the room.
At this time, the Divine Inquisitor took out two more from his pocket and personally hung them on their blades.
The spiritual energy on it was different from the spiritual energy that the Divine Inquisitors usually provided to them through the contract.
As soon as the rope was tied to the main body, Choi and Knee Bolus felt the discomfort that made Choi and Choi disappear.
Choi looked at the Divine Inquisitor again with a stunned expression.
To this day, it had to be said that although many of the swordsman in Honmaru had an instinctive fear of her, after getting along with each other, not a single swordsman thought that she was an incompetent ruler.
Perhaps the Divine Inquisitor wasn't gentle and was full of schemes. Even if it was the body of a sword-wielding man, she could still hurt him … However, no matter what she did, if one carefully thought about it, there wasn't a single one that truly mistreated them.
As for her shortcomings, they were always before the Katanas truly became her Katanas. She seemed to be a calculative person, and because of this, she was hated by many of the Funerary Deities.
But …
But using the Katanas, using them to achieve victory … Was this not what a general should do?
The Divine Inquisitors were always able to sense their emotions at the first instance and make adjustments at the first instance.
Otherwise, Mitsuki Munechika in This Pill would not have submitted to her and silently agreed to whatever she did to the Katanas. Otherwise, Compressional Hasselblad would not have chosen to give up the life of the first ruler and gradually accept this new ruler, learning how to dedicate himself to her again.
Looking at the girl in front of him, the scales in Choi's heart slowly tilted.
Before they knew it, it was already midnight.
The street stalls had already closed for the day. The shutters were pulled down. Apart from one or two convenience stores that were open 24 hours a day, only the dim yellow street lamps were hanging high up, illuminating the empty asphalt road.
Lan Bo was lying on Yamamoto Takeshi's shoulder. He was already sleepy.
He was still in the body of a baby, so he already slept more than the others. Now that he had to run around with them, he was mentally exhausted.
Even so, his eyelids drooped uncontrollably. His head shook like a drunk child.
He still refused to fall asleep on Yamamoto Takeshi's shoulder. He forced his eyes open and said in a confused tone, "Huh?
Didn't we say we were going to catch that bad guy White Orchid?
Why aren't we going to catch him? "
Yamamoto Takeshi laughed when he heard this. He pulled Lan Bo to the most comfortable spot on his back. "I didn't expect Lan Bo to be the most anxious one among us."
Because this time, even Skylark, who usually left the group, did not act alone. This time, Lan Bo's sudden question stunned many people.
"Yes, yes."
Tsunayoshi also seemed to have just reacted. He glanced at Skylark's expressionless face. "I feel that Senior Skylark is different from usual this time."
As for what was different.
He seemed to have become abnormally quiet. Moreover, every time he played with the duckweed walking stick in his hand with a patient expression, it felt like he was waiting for something.
Of course, Tsunayoshi did not dare to say this when he saw Skylark's upturned red phoenix eyes and the duckweed walking stick in Senior Skylark's hand.
Skylark snorted softly and glanced away.
Tsunayoshi: "…" He did not dare to ask, he did not dare to ask. A boss always had a boss's purpose.
Ignoring the other people's gazes on him and Lan Bo's confused question, Skylark slowly shifted his gaze to the back of the girl who had already distanced herself from them.
She was carrying Leibaun, who had just been taken away from Tsunayoshi. The two Sword and Blade Funerary Deities beside her followed closely behind her.
Mysterious … unfathomable …
His gaze darkened slightly and restrained the pitch-black light in his eyes.
The next day, after everyone woke up, they began to move according to the groups they had arranged the night before.
Because they had lost Fox's Aid as a means of communication between the real world and the parallel world, it could be said that their mission had become much more difficult.
However, because this temporarily formed mission team had Lingsu, Leibaun, and Skylark, the chaos that they had expected did not occur at all.
Any one of these three people would be an expert in leading a team.
Prison Teru took out a pair of long-range limitless headphones from his backpack that the Penglie Family had developed. It used a satellite positioning system, and regardless of the distance or the strength of the signal, everyone wearing it could talk at any time.
It was very convenient.
Since the mission this time had something to do with the monsters, she was afraid that some non-physical factors would cause harm to the Penglie Family. So, Ling Su also took out the red rope-like talismans that she had made that night and tied them around everyone's wrists.
She had sealed a large amount of spiritual power in the knot. Unless they encountered a great demon like Ibaraki Dōji, other demons could be easily subdued.
Moreover, it had the most important function, which was to send out a distress signal.
If anyone who went out alone encountered any danger, passively or actively broke the knot, Lingsu would be able to sense it and rush over to rescue them.
It could be said that their preparations were very thorough, but too thorough. The only girl in the Penglie Family, Culom, was a little uneasy.
"Don't worry," Leibaun comforted her, "Tsunayoshi will protect you."
"Yes, yes."
Tsunayoshi was at a loss when facing the girl, but he completed his sentence, "Not just me, all of us will protect you, so don't worry."
"Mm." Culom nodded slightly.
"Then let's begin," Lingsu said.
Ling Su replied, "We're already connected to the center of this parallel world, so it's only a matter of time before we find Prynne."
Moreover …
She glanced at Leibaun without batting an eyelid.
The nail hidden in the dark. Instead of being unknowingly schemed against, it was better to take the initiative to give them a chance to use their means and see what they are going to do.
The large team was split into two or three people. They would not miss such a good opportunity to strike.
Li Baoen looked back at her, his lips curling into a smile.
·
At the same time, in the Government of the Time's monitoring room of the parallel world.
It was already late at night. Most of the staff had already gone home, leaving only a few on the night shift to deal with unexpected situations.
But in the monitoring room, something unknown was happening.
Due to a sudden technical problem, Fox's Aid's transmission function was damaged and could not transmit information well.
Because of this, a group of high-level internal staff was worried sick.
Since this mission was secretly carried out by the higher-ups, they could not send too many people to investigate the problem. As a last resort, they could only borrow a few trustworthy people from the technical department.
However, in the room …
Fox's Aid's mouth was sealed and thrown into a transparent jar.
Its body was stiff and couldn't move. Its mind was also locked. A pair of lively and watery eyes were now glowing with a fluorescent blue light. Fine white light dots were quickly filtering in the pupils. Each light dot was the Government of the Time's top secret information.
"Is it done?" Someone asked in a hoarse voice.
The lights in the monitoring room were not turned on. Only the large screen embedded in the wall was emitting a faint blue light. Some unintelligible symbols and data jumped on the screen from time to time. They were all folders exported from the database stored in Fox's Aid's body.
"Almost done."
In the darkness, someone in front of the screen was controlling the control panel. He said slowly, "As expected of the Government of the Time's most important Fox's Aid. Just the shielding system alone is set up with 10 layers. Each layer has a trap. Just a slight touch will trigger the alarm.
Although it's not impossible to decipher, to crack it without triggering the trap … the time consumption is something we don't have. "
"If we didn't seize this opportunity, it wouldn't be easy to get this Fox's Aid from that woman and have a lot of time to decipher it," he said.
The previous person replied, "No, there's a problem with what you said.
It's impossible. "
The person on the control panel paused. "You don't trust me?"
"It's not a matter of trust." The first person said, "We have been independent and scattered all these years.
Rashly coming together, you should be able to think of the information errors and differences in the middle. "
"Don't be too careless."
He paused and said again. His eyes were full of hatred in the darkness. "Don't forget our ultimate goal.
This is just the first step of the plan. "
"The circuit left by Mi Yue is no longer usable.
Although part of the 'plot' has been lost, as long as we don't expose ourselves, we are not far from victory. "
"The next step is just."
The person in front of the control panel looked coldly at the Fox's Aid. "— Let those people stay in the parallel world forever."
·
In an alley on a bustling street in the morning, a scream suddenly rang out.
At the same time, following the first scream, the other areas seemed to have fallen into an inexplicable source of infection, and accidents began to happen one after another.
The girl, who was rushing to the morning shift, looked at the time on her watch again. She was secretly annoyed that she should not have slept too late last night, causing the three alarms in the morning to not wake her up.
Seeing that it was almost time to go to work, and the traffic on the road was still very congested, she had no choice but to get out of the taxi. She ran along a short but somewhat messy alley in her memory.
On the empty road, the sound of the girl's high heels echoed in the tall, narrow, and long alleyway.
Because of the fast running, her neatly tied hair was a little messy.
She looked at her watch again and felt that if she rushed over at this speed, she would barely make it to work.
Fortunately, fortunately.
Just as she was about to breathe a sigh of relief, when she looked up, she saw a black shadow flash in front of her. Then, her pupils suddenly shrank as if she had seen something terrible. In an instant, she let out a short and intense scream.
In front of her stood a person who could not be considered human.
A monster that was only made of bones, but wore strange clothes, held a long knife in its hand, and was emitting a red mist all over its body suddenly tore through a gap in space and appeared in front of her.
And there was more than one.
She could even see that behind the skeleton person, there was a large hole in the empty air that was emitting black mist, and then an endless stream of skeleton people came out from it.
Some of them were holding guns, some had short knives in their mouths, and flew like animals with long bone tails swinging — — but there was not a single normal human.
The girl's face was pale, her voice trembled, and the bag in her hand fell to the ground.
"Da … Da … Da … Da …!!!!" Another scream.
"Get out of the way."
A woman's voice suddenly sounded behind her.
The voice was like a clear spring, ethereal and ethereal.
For some reason, it seemed to make people relax.
When the girl heard these few words, she felt her body relax a lot. Her consciousness was drifting, but she didn't have a frightened expression towards the strange things happening in front of her. It was as if she thought that this was a normal thing in an instant.
Then, as if she was hypnotized, she obediently turned her body.
From the corner of her eyes, she saw two figures quickly jump over from behind her.
A cold light flashed, flashing in the girl's eyes.
It was the reflection of a blade.
The girl seemed to be startled by this light, and her thoughts quickly began to return to the furnace.
But the woman who slowly walked over and did not join the battle seemed to have noticed. Before the girl could react, the woman gently rubbed her head and said softly, "Sleep."
The young girl fell to the ground and fainted.
Lingsu took the girl's body and leaned her against a wall. She was afraid that she would fall, so she deliberately found a corner with places to lean on.
After settling the girl, she straightened up and looked in front of her.
Choi and Knee Bolus stood in front of her, one on the left and one on the right. The two of them unsheathed their blades at the same time, and the blade light drew an arc in the air with no blind spots. In just a moment, the time reversal army that was pouring in from the spatial rift was annihilated.
Lingsu raised her hand and released the spiritual energy in her body.
After gathering into a ball, she had to pour into the spatial rift that was emitting black mist, and completely seal the rift.
"The tenth one." She said softly, and then asked the wireless earpiece, "How is it on your side?"
