Chapter 163 Preliminary Understanding of the Alien Demon
Chapter 163 A preliminary understanding of strange demons
In Kyoto, Noda's Momotiya Dojo was overcrowded, but it seemed unusually quiet, like countless turbulent undercurrents lurking beneath the treacherous water before an undersea volcano erupted.
At a certain moment, countless astonished eyes looked at the competition that had ended in the middle of the dojo. The shiny floor was sprinkled with a layer of moistening and silent red rain.
Bang!
Something hit the floor hard.
The next second, the panicked shouts and angry scoldings were instantly suppressed by the words, "If a single blow from a single heart can't do that, who else dares to come forward and die?"
Momomiya Linya stood in the corner, and through the gap between the figures of many senior brothers and sisters who seemed to be frozen in place, he saw the figure whose mother always had a serious face after her death, slumped in a pool of blood.
middle.
A huge bloody hole was opened on Momomiya Haruzou's neck, and gurgling blood continued to flow out like a fountain.
The moment he was about to die, he seemed to be raising his head with difficulty, looking in the direction where Momomiya Izaya was, and opened his lips that were constantly choking on blood as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he couldn't say anything.
I couldn't say it out loud.
Taogong Lin also stared at this scene in confusion, this scene seemed familiar.
I seem to be afraid in this scene
He was more frightened than anyone else, curling up and hiding in a corner, trying his best to prevent others from discovering his cowardly and incompetent son.
Inexplicable.
A feeling of sadness, anger and shame suddenly surged into my heart.
Momo Gong Linya suddenly rushed forward like crazy, his heart seemed to be burning with fire!
He wanted to avenge his father, even if he died by the opponent's sword.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he took a step, he was dragged down by brothers and sisters rushing from all directions, struggling, resisting, and biting him.
Like a cub trapped in a cage,
He watched the sarcastic smile on Gaius Rhine's lips.
At this time, Momo Gong Lin also looked down and was shocked to find that his arms were slender and weak, much like his sixteen-year-old self. Time seemed to have gone back in time.
He was horrified, and when he raised his head, Gaius Rhine, the man who killed his father Momomiya Haruzo, separated from everyone at some point and stood in front of him.
He raised the long sword stained with his father's blood high and stared at himself with a sardonic smile on his lips.
"Since you want to die, then I will make it happen for you."
The harsh and terrifying wind pressure fell, and Momomiya Izaya, who was restrained in place and unable to move, closed his eyes in despair.
next moment,
His face suddenly felt a little warm.
Slowly opening his eyes, a black-gold double-edged ancient sword pierced through the neck of Gaius Rhine in front of him, and a stream of blood arrows spurted out. The swordholder at the end of the double-edged ancient sword was a man wearing a red hat.
Figure of fox mask with blue isochromatic pattern.
Gradually, Gaius Rhine's facial features began to slowly erode at a speed visible to the naked eye, and a feeling of nausea surged from the bottom of his heart to his throat.
Momomiya Izaya subconsciously wanted to retreat.
At this time, someone seemed to hold his hand, and a vague shout came from his ears.
"Momomiya-san!"
Momomiya Izaya suddenly shook off the opponent's hand. He wanted to retreat, but the feedback on his body was that he suddenly woke up from the bed and sat up at this moment.
The white curtains swayed gently at the window, and the skylight that seemed a bit dazzling after the rain came through. You could still hear the sounds of nurses walking in the corridor.
Immediately afterwards, the door to the ward was pushed open, and a doctor in a white coat walked in.
The other party walked to the hospital bed where Momomiya Izaya was, asked about various aspects of his physical recovery, wrote something casually and pasted it on the bedside, left the words "please rest" and left the ward.
Oh, by the way, it's the ward.
It took Momomiya Rinya almost three seconds to realize that he was lying in the ward now, not in the dojo with blood all over the floor many years ago.
"Momomiya-san, you fell into a coma last night after seeing the body of the seventh adjudicator. The people from the adjudication department later took over the scene. They thought you were suspected of collaborating with the fox-faced man, so they went to the pedestrian street with you last night.
Those who survived were sent to this hospital together."
Having said this, Kyogoku Chuansui's face was a little angry, but more of it was helpless.
"Thanks."
Unexpectedly, Momo Gonglin didn't ask when he could go out. He just thanked him lightly and slowly leaned back on the hospital bed again.
He raised his head and stared at the snow-white ceiling in a daze, thinking of many things, and the thirty years of revenge for his father's murder completely melted away.
But why don’t you feel the pleasure of revenge? Maybe it’s because you haven’t been able to personally kill your enemy.
But I remembered the miserable half-body of Gaius Rhine on the ground in the darkness last night,
Thinking of the enemy who made him examine himself three times a day, he had completely left this world forever.
That's enough.
The silver-haired old man Kyogoku Kawamizu, who was sitting next to the hospital bed, looked at Momomiya Izaya's reaction. He knew exactly what kind of shadow this son of an old friend had lived in for the past thirty years.
At this moment, seeing that the other party was finally relieved and relieved of the shackles that had been growing heavier over the past thirty years, I felt a little relieved for a while.
But thinking of the extremely difficult things that happened last night, Kyogoku Kawamizu couldn't help but frown slightly again, glanced at Momomiya Izaya and said:
"The [Lion King] passed down by Taogong Dojo was taken away by people from the Adjudication Department last night. In the past, there were some things that you didn't want to say more about, and I didn't dare to ask more. But now that the matter is here, I have a few questions.
Can you answer me?"
After hearing Kyogoku Kawamizu's words, Momomiya Izaya lowered his eyes slightly. After a while, he slowly raised his head, looked directly at Kyogoku Gawamizu and said:
"What do you want to know?"
"I want to know what happened to your knife, and what was that weird sky that was released by the Sky Tree radio tower last night?" Kyogoku Kawamizu asked his doubts straight to the point, "Why am I here?"
Those innocent people who lost control felt an aura very similar to that of your knife."
Faced with such a blunt question, Momomiya Izaya remained silent for longer than before.
After a while, he took a deep breath and spoke slowly:
"Have you ever heard of strange demons?"
"Yeah." Kyogoku Kawamizu nodded.
"I have read sporadic rumors about strange demons in some unofficial histories that record strange things, but there is no evidence for them. What do you mean?"
"Alien monsters are real.
My great-grandfather is the human you have read about in unofficial histories, who possessed the ‘demon sword’ in the Kingdom of Wano a hundred years ago and ended up dying at the hands of the strong men of the Nine Celestial and Human Families.”
Momo Gong Lin also took a deep breath when he said this and said softly, "Otherwise you can't explain why so many people suddenly gain abilities and lose control as if they are crazy."
"Are these caused by strange demons?"
"I guess so."
"Then that sword of yours."
"Not only will strange demons incarnate in humans, they will also incarnate in some devices that can attract them."
Momomiya Izaya explained in a slow voice, "These tools, I call them [magic tools], not only do they have weird abilities that are not in the talent sequence, but they even have their own fighting consciousness and desire for blood. This kind of
Consciousness will affect the owner of the [magic tool] and make him become bloodthirsty and warlike."
Hearing Momotiya Izaya's words, Kyogoku Kawamizu, who was well-read, once again thought of the record about the "demon sword" that he had read in that unofficial history.
Is what Momomiya Rinya said true?
Those records were not groundless, but real events that happened to his great-grandfather?
Thinking of this, Kyogoku River suddenly understood why the Celestial World Government and the Adjudication Department paid so much attention to the matter of the Sky Tree this time.
In the past, if a Seventh Judiciary had died, the World Government and the Judgment Division would have been so angry that they would have sent out power all night to question the top management of Wano Country.
Wano's top brass will quickly put pressure on the Metropolitan Police Department, asking them to launch a futile manhunt in the city to find the man behind the mask.
But from last night to now, the murderer of the Seventh Adjudicator has only been repeatedly broadcast on the news channels of major TV stations, with the same useless wanted and reward as before.
Both the Adjudication Department and the Metropolitan Police stationed in the Country of Wano have been working hard to eliminate the traces of last night around the closed Sky Tree, and escorted all the ordinary people from the square to the hospital for detention and observation.
, reporting the physical conditions of those people three times a day, which is full of very abnormal atmosphere.
Kyogoku Chuansui came to his senses and said in disbelief, "You mean those illusory demons are of high value in the eyes of heaven and humans? Even higher than the death of the seventh adjudicator?"
Momomiya Izaya shook his head, "Just the fact that a strange demon has been transformed into a human being with natural abilities is certainly not enough for the heavenly beings to value so much. What they really value is the [Border] in the Sky Tree radio tower, the fan
If the door can be opened the first time, it can be opened the second time, releasing more strange demons that can inhabit ordinary people. Most people will die, but if they can survive it, it will be a new life. No, symbiosis."
"That door?"
Kyogoku Kawazui murmured to himself.
Taogong Lin also continued, "You should know that it is extremely difficult to improve the level of an ability user. When it reaches a certain bottleneck, it will be more than ten years in the same place. Even the powerful heavenly and human beings cannot avoid it.
But some people with dual talents often draw parallels and even incorporate new abilities to improve themselves."
"But."
Kyogoku Kawamizu said in confusion, "We were all under the tower last night. If those ethereal things falling from the sky are strange demons, their choice seems to exclude those with existing abilities. So far, there was no ability last night.
who are affected.”
"Is it ethereal?"
Taogong Lin also paused, his eyes suddenly seemed a little dazed and said, "Those things are not always illusory."
"What's the meaning?"
Kyogoku Kawazui was stunned for a moment, suddenly realized something, and asked with a look of disbelief, "You mean those strange demons also have their own entities?"
From the time Momotiya Izaya stopped hiding anything from him and talked to him until now, Kyogoku Kawamizu has always understood the "different demon" mentioned by Momotiya Izaya as another "form" of his innate ability, and there may be something hidden behind it.
There are some secrets that have been unknown for thousands of years.
But it was hard for him to imagine that strange demons, or abilities, such as his talent sequence 31 [Red Flame], could actually have their own physical form, and even intelligence and thoughts.
What would happen?
A talking red flame?
Noticing Kyogoku Kawazui staring at him with a shocked face, Momomiya Izaya, who was leaning against the hospital bed, nodded slightly and said softly, "That's right, they won't choose you, but you will choose them.
If you dare, step through that door."
"What door?"
"Gate to the Boundary."
"."
The ward suddenly became quiet.
"That's amazing! I heard that you won the 'Five Fighting Combinations' last night, beating the shit out of the first-year students in Kyoto and completely defeating them."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk! That's amazing! Your kid should be almost at the third level now, right?"
"By the way, why didn't you come back with us on the school bus last night? I was waiting for you at school to celebrate."
"Hiss—! Last night I saw the news that there was a big commotion under the Sky Tree. Captain Dragonfly killed another Adjudicator. Tsk! This time I am afraid that the Adjudicator will be offended to death."
"By the way, I heard that many people were tempted by unknown 'mental abilities' to attack the black-robed execution team last night. I saw some photos circulating on the Internet. Those black-robed execution teams of the Judgment Department really killed people.
?How can we fix it? These bastards!"
"But I heard that people with abilities aren't affected too much, so I'm not too worried about you, hehe."
"."
No matter how terrible the disaster is,
It was still an inhumane and bloody massacre.
Without being there in person, it would be difficult to empathize with the soul-trembling fear. This is why there are many network keyboard warriors.
Higashinohara arrived at school today. As soon as the morning meeting ended, he was greeted by the muscular man Aida Yuuto at the back table. Many classmates around him who were not able to attend the scene last night were also discussing enthusiastically.
They only grabbed a few words from the news, and they obviously could not understand the horror of the bloody suppression under the sky tree last night where even the rain could not wash away the blood.
However, Higashinohara would not say anything from some moral high ground.
If his life trajectory had not changed since he came to this world, he might be just like the people around him, talking about what happened last night with great interest.
"Eh? Why haven't we seen each other for a day? Your shoulders are getting stronger and stronger, as well as these muscles."
"Take your hand away." Higashinohara was stunned for a moment, then slapped him with an expressionless face.
Snapped-!
"Hiss!" Aida Yongto was immediately slapped and his hand shrank, and he looked at Higashinohara with some surprise, "Higashino. How come your hand strength has become so strong?"
"Do I have a bigger one? Do you want to try it?"
"Uh, no, no."
After raising [Physique] to 30.5 last night, it is now roughly equivalent to a third-level physical system ability user.
His figure is slim when he wears clothes. If the clothes are not too slim, you can't see any muscle lines, but compared to before, his whole person is still full of a hidden sense of strength.
After getting rid of Yuuto Aida's harassment, before going to class, Higashinohara's consciousness sank into the "Guilty Manual" again.
Continue to use the real-life battles of [Character Image Dissection] to practice swordsmanship inside the skull, and improve the [Muwo Itachi Style] just obtained last night.
Although Aida Yuuto's words are inconsistent, at least he is right about one thing - that is, after beheading two judges of the Judgment Division, he has completely eliminated the "swordsman" directly under the World Government, the highest authority in the world.
The former of "and the sword" was offended to death.
Even though from last night to now, New Tokyo has not taken any large-scale raids and arrests like last time, Higashinohara is very clear that this is just a brief calm before the storm on the surface.
As the world government's direct trial and execution agency that directly deters more than 300 alliance countries in addition to war methods.
If the Adjudication Division does not handle the matter of Wano Country beautifully, the consequences will undoubtedly be unacceptable to them.
It was precisely because he knew this that Higashinohara's heart was filled with a strong sense of crisis.
So even though Higashinohara's physical and mental state had not fully recovered until this morning, he continued to practice "intracranial sword training" on the way to school by train and during the morning meeting just now.
It's just that the results are not very gratifying.
The Mugo One-sword Style, dropped by the eighth-level demigod-level ability user, is an ancient style of swordsmanship that is more exquisite and profound than the Kodachi Two-sword Style that was originally obtained from Kusao Shotensho.
Among the seven sword styles, he only used [Tatsumaki] and [Onikiri], and his proficiency level is only (1/10) at the elementary level. There is no hope of improving it to 2/10 today. The other five styles still need to be mastered.
Arrange backwards.
As for the secret technique of the Wugo Itto Style [Mogo Mirror Heart] and the secret secret [Itchi Shura].
The proficiency does move, but compared to the denominator of 1/100, it is still roughly equal to no movement.
If we continue at this rate, it will take more than three months to complete one point a day. This assumes that we do not take into account the periodic bottleneck stagnation after the proficiency of Kodachi Two-Sword Style was raised to 50/100.
If Higashino was in a peaceful and prosperous era in his previous life, he wouldn't be in a hurry while squatting in school, he could just grind it out slowly over ten or twenty years.
But now that the incident under the Tokyo Sky Tree broke out, he felt that a storm was coming to Wano Country, and it was not necessarily safe to stay in school, so he had no choice but to become impatient.
You have to think of a way to improve your strength as soon as possible.
Thinking of this, Higashinohara's eyes suddenly fell on the source point with a value of 0 in the column at the bottom of the personal panel on the title page of the "Guilty Manual".
When he unlocked the skill [Decomposition] for the [Follower of Justice] title, he seemed to vaguely remember that skill proficiency could also be improved through source points.
