Probably the pursuit of the past few days has left a deep shadow on Shenfu Yuzi and others. As soon as they heard the words "coming" from Su Lun's mouth, they immediately entered a state of combat readiness. Several ninja guards immediately took out their weapons
Weapons gathered around Yuzi.
The atmosphere in the bamboo forest instantly became solemn, and everyone could hear each other's heavy breathing.
Miko glanced at Senjou, and her peripheral vision was actually focused on Su Lun. The meaning was obvious: What should we do now?
Although she also knew that Su Lun was certainly not weak, there was only one person after all.
The Onimusha were samurai who died in battle. There were many of them. They also knew the tactics of encirclement and killing during their lifetime, and their combat power was astonishing. The key is immortality, which is the most difficult thing. In this situation, even if it is the fifth or sixth level
Professionals can't get any benefits by coming here. Otherwise, their team wouldn't be reduced to this.
If we continue to fight as hard as the previous two days, there will definitely be heavy casualties, and we may not even be able to make it to dawn.
When a powerful enemy attacked, Senjou still had the same indifferent attitude of "don't care about life and death, just draw the knife and do it"... She saw Miko's gaze, shrugged, and motioned to look at Su Lun beside her.
Su Lun was stared at by several eyes, his expression was normal, but he was still a little stressed in his heart.
Listening to the fact that the [Onimusha] was able to chase Senjou and the others down so embarrassingly, I knew it would definitely not be easy to deal with.
His original plan before coming here was that if he really couldn't defeat them, he would take Senjo and Lolota and run away.
But the real situation is that Miss Miko was very kind and persuaded them to separate several times.
This actually made Su Lun feel that it would be unjust to just let go and run away.
What's more, the meaning of Qianjou is probably to gain favor from others and to try to protect the child as well as possible.
That's all, I'll do my best
Thousands of hands were sealed, and the seals were very stiff. The sixteen unsealing seals of the armor that appeared in one shot turned into a slow-motion performance, and it took less than half a minute to condense. The arms behind the armor were also banned.
The runes were limited, and she could barely form two usable armored arms. She put her hand on the hilt of the "Demon Sword Zongzheng", and her whole body suddenly became filled with evil aura.
Lolotta also drew out her long sword and guarded Senjou with a serious look on her face. After this little girl drew her sword, she seemed to be a different person, with a fearless little face.
On the other hand, Su Lun is the most laid-back one.
Since he had waited in the bamboo forest for nearly an hour in advance, he had already prepared what he needed to prepare, and there was nothing to do now.
But it was his attitude of not doing anything that made the ninja guard captain next to Miko twitch. He seemed to think that this person was unreliable, so he tried to persuade his princess to escape first. After all, he was a guard, and no one dared to touch him.
Transgression.
Su Lun didn't want to explain anything. He held the human skin rune fan in his hand and carefully felt the cold spirit that suddenly appeared in the bamboo forest.
Yuzi's face remained normal. She saw that the "reinforcements" had no other tactical arrangements. She thought that they would just have to fight hard, and she was mentally prepared. Then she bit her silver teeth, took out a long bow, and put the arrow pot on her back.
On the back, he looked like he had to fight hand-to-hand.
However, she was also curious as to why Mr. Su Lun discovered the enemy's arrival before she, a Shinto witch who was more sensitive to monsters, did?
Not long after everyone entered the fighting state, the sound of dense footsteps suddenly came from the dark bamboo forest.
It seemed like there were thousands of people surrounding them, which was terrifying to hear.
After a few breaths, everyone's eyes saw "human figures" surrounding them.
After taking a closer look, I saw that they were corpse soldiers wearing tattered samurai suits and holding spears and swords in their hands. They looked like mummies, with blue phosphorus fire glowing from their eye sockets.
"This is [Onimusha]"
Su Lun looked at these ghost figures, identified the details, and had a rough idea in his mind.
This is a monster that has some characteristics of zombies and ghosts.
Based on this alone, Su Lun felt that the problem was not too big. After all, these monsters, Qian Jiao said, were only as powerful as first- and second-level professionals.
In the legend of Shanyin Country, human beings and the dead coexist. During the day, human activities occur, and when the sun sets at night, it is the time for the dead to travel. Originally, night is the time when the yin is the strongest. As soon as those ghost warriors appear, the temperature rises instantly. It plummeted, and there was a coldness that made one's soul tremble.
However, Su Lun thought it was nothing. He was of the dark sorcerer lineage and had a high resistance to dark energy.
The several ninja guards were obviously nervous. These ghosts left too many shadows on them.
There were an extremely large number of Onimusha, more than six to seven hundred by visual inspection, and their pairs of orchid phosphorus eyes looked particularly eye-catching in the dark bamboo forest.
The leading monster was already less than a hundred meters closer to Su Lun and his group. At this time, the ninja guards rubbed their palms and threw several shurikens in each hand.
These hidden weapons that used the wind blade technique were extremely fast and sharp, and they were extremely concealable in the dark. Su Lun only saw a flash of light in front of his eyes, and those hidden weapons easily cut off the bamboo, making a series of crisp sounds of "clang, clang, clang, clang" , hit a piece of Onimusha and passed through.
“It’s very strong”
Su Lun's eyes narrowed slightly.
If we don't talk about sustainability, these elemental shurikens are much more lethal than conventional alchemical bullets.
However, his eyes were more concerned about the Onimusha who were hit.
The guards around Miko are all jounin-level masters with very strong fighting abilities. They are about as powerful as a third-level or fourth-level alchemist professional. Therefore, it is easy to kill these common first- and second-level onimusuras. It is this round hand. The sharp sword hit ten or twenty Onimusha, but they all hit the vital points, and the body parts were cut off all over the ground.
But what's surprising is that once those onimusha are killed, they suddenly turn into a mass of black sand-like corpse energy and disperse in the air.
In the blink of an eye, the black energy condensed again and became a physical entity.
Su Lun's left eye flashed, and he carefully observed the process of transforming from the elemental state into a corpse, and his thoughts became more active: "The Onimusha's death to resurrection is the transformation from spirit body to entity, but the attack is still a physical attack method, not yet It’s too tricky. And before they are killed, they can be controlled physically. Moreover, they are humanoid monsters. Although they are dead, their body structure and human body make it unclear whether the [spiritual tentacles] can be controlled."
This is similar to the information I got from Senjo before.
The black crow on the shoulder screamed "quack", seeming to like the death energy. Su Lun narrowed his eyes, but thought of another possibility in his mind: "If this thing can be used in the puppet army, it will not die." It’s a good thing to have the attribute of immortality! But, what’s their energy source?”
Because they can regroup after death, even if a few jounin fight hard, the number of ghost warrior legions is not small, but more and more, forming a vague encirclement trend.
In this current situation, no one can watch the show. Even the royal princess, Miko, took out her long bow and drew it to shoot.
Her arrows are not ordinary. The Shinto miko is also proficient in some spells. The arrows condensed with magic power are like a stream of light, instantly piercing through several ghost warriors. Those ghost warriors who were pierced through the body were burned into pieces in the blink of an eye.
Ashes. She draws arrows very quickly, and her damage to Onimusha is also the strongest among their group.
"Miko of Iga Shrine, Amaterasu, light magic"
Although the spell system was different, Su Lun could also see that it was obviously a magic arrow that had the effect of dispersing undead monsters.
Unfortunately, it's not very powerful.
Su Lun had stayed with the Daru tribe for a long time before and had a full understanding of the abilities of god believers.
Shinto is weak, and all spells based on Shinto are also not strong.
This imperial son was able to protect himself, but he was somewhat unable to kill the enemy.
Su Lun kept observing, looking at the death energy that was dispersed and condensed, but still did not take any action, "Sure enough, there is a source of death energy."
Since the pursuit needs to be solved, the problem is not just the Onimusha.
There are also root problems.
for example:
Why can't you get rid of these monsters?
Who is in control?
Does someone have some special tracking method, or is the problem internal?
In the eyes of some ordinary people, many phenomena cannot be explained and are attributed to "supernatural events".
Especially in a theocratic society like Shanyin Country, being mysterious, inviolable, and ruled by ignorant people will make the rights and beliefs of those in power more stable. The residents are "ignorant" to a certain extent.
Therefore, the ghost warrior is also unsolvable.
But in the eyes of alchemists, energy is conserved.
All seemingly strange phenomena can be traced back to their roots and their principles can be found.
There must be a reason why this Onimusha is immortal.
Su Lun is still waiting.
He felt that the most crucial link was missing.
Su Lun, the "reinforcement", did not take action and continued to watch with cold eyes. This unusual behavior surprised everyone except Qian Jiao.
But no one had anything to say.
Now they have experienced the nightmare experience of the past few days again, and they can only resist physically.
Now that Onimusha had surrounded them, long-range methods were no longer efficient, and everyone began to fight hand-to-hand.
At this time, the Onimusha leader finally appeared!
In Su Lun's perception, a very powerful spirit appeared.
Looking again, an Onimusha wearing red warrior armor appeared in his field of vision.
It wears a blood-red grimace mask, and its chest armor is made of five pieces of dark red gold steel. Its shoulder armor and knee armor are all woven from red dragon scales. This is the famous Warring States armor of Shanyin Kingdom, "Iron Red Scale Paint".
"Five carcasses are enough"!
Su Lun appraised it and found that the material of this armor, from the iron sheets to the binding ropes, were all extremely rare materials. The breastplate was made of meteorite, and those scales were really top-notch materials stripped from the seventh-order sea monster.
Prevent surprise.
The shuriken that could easily kill ordinary ghost warriors before only emitted a little sparkle on the armor.
Even if Miko's bow and arrow hit him, it would only dispel some of the lingering death energy, causing no pain or itching.
As soon as this guy arrived, the expressions in everyone's eyes became extremely solemn.
It was this monster that had killed so many of their companions in the past two days.
Several ninjas rushed in with their swords drawn, and Lolotta also rushed in.
Qian Jiao Chong said to Su Lundo before, "This guy's armor defense has no shortcomings. There is only a gap on the left side of the head and neck that can be exploited. But its fighting instinct is also difficult to deal with, and it is extremely difficult to kill.
Death. It will only become slightly stiff when it regroups its body."
"Um."
Su Lun nodded. With this information, he could save a lot of effort.
"I'm going!"
After saying that, Qian Jiao glanced at Su Lun, drew his knife and rushed away.
In the blink of an eye, Qian Jiao was fighting with the Onimusha leader.
For a moment, the sword energy was everywhere, sand and rocks were flying, and large tracts of green bamboo fell down in the bamboo forest.
Onimusha killed and resurrected before his eyes, killed and resurrected
Su Lun has almost completely understood the characteristics of these monsters.
However, he still didn't take any action. His eyes were like a torch, and he searched carefully around the bamboo forest, hoping to find something.
Senjo and a few Jonin were very powerful. Although they were at an absolute disadvantage in numbers, they were not at a disadvantage.
But the enemies will fight more and more, and in the end they will end up like the previous days, that is, they will be eaten alive.
Gradually, there were more and more Onimusha around, and it became increasingly difficult for everyone to cope.
The frequency of the divinely dressed Yuzi drawing the bow and shooting arrows is much lower, and the power of the light arrows is getting smaller and smaller.
Chijo's situation is not optimistic either. Her hands have been sealed, and it is very difficult for her to wield the sword. The demon sword has not been tamed, and it seems unwilling to be used. Apart from being sharp, it does not show the killing power it should have.
Not long after, dangers arose, and several jounin were injured.
As the much-anticipated "reinforcement", Su Lun's performance was disappointing.
It didn't look like he was protecting Miko, the god of clothing, but rather Miko was protecting him.
He stood next to Miko, firing his spear calmly and calmly. Occasionally, he would use his not-so-skilled sword skills to kill a few approaching Onimusha. There was no more surprising moves.
In terms of fighting enthusiasm alone, even the little girl Lolotta is more eye-catching than him.
At least, it's not worthy of what everyone expected just now.
Finally, seeing that the situation was getting more and more dangerous and there was no sign of improvement, the guard leader finally couldn't bear it anymore and shouted loudly: "Your Highness, please go first! Let's hold off these ghost warriors!"
They couldn't see any hope in Su Lun, the "reinforcement".
If you delay any longer, it will be too late!
Previously, because he was a guest of Her Royal Highness the Princess, the captain could not say much, but now at this critical moment of life and death, he had no choice but to be rude.
Because he was a guest of Her Royal Highness the Princess, the Captain could not say much, but now at this critical moment of life and death, he had no choice but to be rude.
He even had some doubts about the motive of this "reinforcement". Was it a deliberate delay?
Hearing this, Shenfu Yuzi also looked embarrassed.
Although she guessed that Mr. Su Lun beside her was not trying his best, but even if he fought with all his strength, what would change?
Su Lun listened to those mythical words, but his face still showed no expression.
If they just left like this, they would save themselves a lot of trouble.
After all, the only thing he came here to protect was Qian Tiao.
For outsiders who have no trust, if you don’t say whether they are worth saving, they will be troublesome in the future.
And it's not like he was delaying on purpose.
If you don't fight to the death, the person behind the scenes probably won't show up.
Even if we are defeated tonight, the consequences will be endless
The atmosphere was a little awkward because of distrust and suspicion.
Qianjou had absolute trust in Su Lun, and she could roughly guess what Su Lun was thinking at the moment, so she would not rush him at all.
But there are outsiders after all.
She was contracted to protect Miss Miko. She asked Su Lun, "How is it?"
Su Lun said three words: "Wait a little longer!"
Qian Jiao listened and said nothing.
When it comes to this, trust is just a matter of time. If you can't trust it, your benevolence and justice will be exhausted.
After hearing the conversation between the two, Yuzi knew that the choice fell to her. If she wanted to leave, she might be able to fight and walk until dawn.
But if you escape tonight, you may not be able to escape tomorrow.
But if you don't leave, looking at the current situation, when the guards are exhausted, they will definitely die in this bamboo forest tonight.
For a moment, Yuzi was in a dilemma.
The guards in the distance were still urging.
"Your Highness, it's too late if you don't leave!"
"Go quickly!"
""
She may not care about her own life, but she bears the heavy responsibility of a Shinto miko and the royal family
Her intuition told her that this might be the most important turning point in her life.
The divinely dressed Yuzi continued to draw her bow and shoot arrows. From the corner of her eye, she caught sight of Su Lun holding a black umbrella beside her. Looking at that calm expression, she finally bit her teeth and chose to believe, and shouted softly: "Listen to Su Lun."
Mr. Lun, keep fighting!"
Su Lun glanced at Yuzi and said in his heart: Smart choice.
Since he chose a newcomer, he also felt that it was worthwhile for him to take action.
And after observing it for so long, Su Lun was probably sure that the problem was not internal.
We are now in a desperate situation, and the several ninja guards have not shown any flaws.
At this moment, Su Lun suddenly sensed an abnormal soul fluctuation among the Onimusha, and his eyes flashed: "That's him!"
In the next moment, Su Lun's double surgeon's seals changed like shadows, the ferocious eight-armed spider spear behind him, the six-pointed star formation under his feet lit up, and a huge cross slowly formed in the sky above the bamboo forest.
He groaned softly: "Mysterious Puppet Theater!"
Qian Jiao finally took action and breathed a sigh of relief.
Lolota, who had been in danger several times, looked at the cross in the sky and obviously recognized the spell. He murmured excitedly: "Is Mr. Sullen finally going to use that sorcerer?"
Under the confused gazes of the divinely dressed Yuko and several ninja guards, space fluctuations exploded everywhere in the bamboo forest.
Looking again, there are puppets with weird smiles hanging strangely in mid-air. Not far away is a mechanical battle armor holding a ship-cutting knife!
Hundreds of puppets appeared in the sky, which seemed to be even stranger than the dense crowd of onimusha.
The puppet army finally appeared!
Looking at this exaggerated number of puppet legions, confusion turned into shock.
At this moment, Shenfu Yuzi finally understood.
She understood why Miss Senjo trusted Mr. Su Lun so much.
"Magical soldiers descending from the sky, this is too exaggerated."
Miko never expected that this "reinforcement" would come to the rescue in such an unexpected way!
