Chapter 10: One Step Ahead
It has been a while since the rumors of ghosts appearing in Spider Mountain in Natian. The Ghost Killing Team sent members to check them many times, but found that there were a large number of ghosts in it. You should know that ghosts basically do not live in groups, they all act alone, and have a strong sense of territory.
Because most ghosts have similar strengths and all have the same immortality, even if there is a fight, they often cannot achieve any result. If you want to conquer other ghosts, unless the leader has the ability to crush them, you can force the other ghosts to gather together.
This is the case with the ghost group in Nada Spider Mountain, so the rare Sakaya Shikiya Sect sent ten members of the ghost killing team to act together at one time.
The result is not optimistic, and the members of these ghost killing teams are deeply involved, which makes Saya Shikiya suspect that the leader in the ghost group may be the Twelve Ghost Tsuki.
It happened that Nada Spider Mountain was not far from Chen Ming's area, so the headquarters urgently transferred him to it. Not only him, but Yuya Shikiya temporarily sent two pillars.
Before Chen Ming, Tanjiro and the other two received orders to rush to Nada Spider Mountain, but their distance was a little far and they could not meet with the previous team.
"Is it here?"
Chen Ming looked at the mountains and forests in front of him, and ran in without hesitation.
Not long after running in, Chen Ming discovered the clue.
The forest is full of hideous spiders, and the surrounding trees are covered with spider webs. It is probably the origin of the name of the mountain. No wonder it is so sparsely populated here.
Deep in the forest, a female ghost with white hair and plump figure moved the spider silk in her hand, her eyes slightly moved.
"Is another prey going to be arrested?"
At the same time, Tanjiro and Inosuke, who were the first to rush into the forest, met the members of the Demon Slayer team who had entered the last wave, and learned from him what had happened before.
Ten members of the Demon Slayer team inexplicably killed each other, and in the end he was the only one who escaped. Although the ten members of the Demon Slayer team in the plot were delivering vegetables, their class was actually above Tanjiro and their strength was definitely not that bad.
At least ten people are together, and there is no problem with ordinary supernatural ghosts.
Just as the three of them were talking, a rustling sound came from the forest, as if a large number of things were crawling on the leaves. This scared the member of the ghost killing team named Murata trembled and quickly reminded him.
"It's this voice. After hearing this voice, the teammates began to kill each other!"
After the words fell, the members of the Demon Slayer Team who had been manipulated had stiff movements and walked out of the forest with a painful expression, as if they were being manipulated.
Before Tanjiro could react, the manipulated people rushed over with their knives.
Because there are still those who are manipulated who survive, Tanjiro is worried and cannot take action, and he is passively beaten.
"It's spider silk! These people are controlled by spider silk!"
After Tanjiro found that he had climbed two spiders on his left hand, his left hand lost control. He immediately realized the situation and cooperated with Inosuke to cut off the spider silk from the controlled Demon Slayer team member.
But the spiders on these people cannot be expelled. Even if the spider silk is cut off, it cannot change this fact. These people will still be controlled after a while.
Seeing this situation, Tanjiro knew that the only way was to find the manipulator behind the scenes. It was just that Tanjiro's nose was affected by the inexplicable fragrance and could not lock in the ghost behind the scenes, just when they discussed how to solve it.
Under the moonlight, a white-haired teenager-like ghost appeared above the spider silk and said coldly to Tanjiro and the other two.
"Don't hinder our family's quiet life"
"You guys, mom can kill them right away."
The impatient guy Iinosuke didn't care who his opponent was, and jumped up on the back of the controlled team member. He slashed his sword and couldn't even touch the opponent's toes.
The three of them watched the young ghost leave stepping on spider silk.
"That child is probably not a ghost who manipulates the silk thread!"
Tanjiro stopped Inosuke who wanted to pursue, and now the most urgent task is to find the ghost behind the scenes to manipulate.
"I'm asking me to find the ghost's place! It's so noisy, you forehead Taro!"
Inosuke shouted angrily and inserted his swords to the ground. Obviously, he had always been resentful of the loss under Tanjiro's iron head.
"Beast Breath Seven Type - Space Perception!"
The Beast's Breath is derived from the Wind's Breath based on its own abilities. As the literal meaning is expressed, the surrounding space is sensed through the body's contact with the air, just like a sound wave radar, and the surrounding environment is outlined in the mind of Inosuke.
Not long after, he sensed the hidden ghost.
"Finished! Wait a minute? And others! What a powerful aura!!"
Inosuke was stunned for a moment.
"What's the meaning?"
Suddenly, all the spider silk on the manipulated ghost killing team members broke and fell to the ground.
"What's going on?"
Murata was a little at a loss when he held his companion who was lying in his arms.
"The ghost's breath disappeared! He was killed by another person! So powerful!!"
Iinosuke replied, and became extremely excited at the inexplicable point.
"Are we our companion? That's great!"
Tanjiro breathed a lot of relief and hurriedly checked the injured team members.
Time went back a few minutes ago.
Several little spiders secretly landed on Chen Mingdu's shoulder. When they were about to spin silk, they were pinched and dissipated with a little force.
"Is the blood ghost technique?"
Chen Ming saw through the essence of these spiders at a glance. These gadgets are quite dangerous. The spider silk spits can actually manipulate nerves. Even if he is hit, he will be controlled.
No matter how strong it is, it is useless, and it is still just a person after all.
No wonder several teams failed. In such a dark and spider-filled forest, several people could detect that the spiders on their bodies would be attacked by ghosts.
But for Chen Ming, these spider silks are also flaws. They are stained with ghost aura, and these spider silks will eventually gather in the hands of the operator.
In the transparent world, the point where all spider silks are connected together is the place where the ghost is located.
After determining the goal, Chen Ming rushed over, otherwise Tanjiro might have forced a step and he could breathe water. There is no reason for Tanjiro to unlock the "water adjustment and cutting head" achievement.ъìqυgΕtv.℃ǒΜ
By the time the female ghost realized the danger, it was too late, and Chen Ming had already arrived.
"How did you find me!"
The female ghost suddenly panicked. Its abilities are all on the spider silk, and the closeness can be imagined.
"I'll try to be gentle as you like."
Chen Ming pulled out his sword and walked forward quickly. The ghost hand was still controlling some members of the ghost killing team, so it would be better to solve the problem as soon as possible.
"What are you talking about! Don't be too..."
"Shui Breathing Type 1 - Water Surface Cutting"
Chen Ming was not so gentle that he brought rain to a ghost who killed many people.
