Lin Qiye looked at Jialan's sleeping face and stood there in despair.
His heart hurt like never before... Even when Tian Congyun Sword pierced his body and pierced his chest, it had never been so painful.
This feeling was like someone holding a knife, cutting his heart that had just felt warmth and love into pieces, and throwing it into the abyss of coldness and despair.
Memorial felt the deep sadness coming from Lin Qiye and fell into silence. After a moment, she opened her mouth and was about to comfort her when the door was opened again.
The knight stood outside the door and said to the memorial:
"President...come here."
After Memorial hesitated for a moment, he sighed, patted Lin Qiye on the shoulder, and then followed the knight out of the room.
In the empty room, only Lin Qiye stood alone.
The breeze blew through the white gauze beside the window, and Jialan's black hair scattered on the edge of the bed was gently lifted up. Those eyes as quiet as water were closed tightly, like a rock that stood still in the long river of time, existing forever...
After a long time, Lin Qiye stepped forward and slowly walked to the bed and sat down.
He put Jialan's disheveled black hair back into the quilt and held Jialan's soft palm, motionless like a silent sculpture.
…
Honshu Island.
A car was speeding along a deserted road.
Yurina sat in the back seat and turned to look out the window. Through the gaps of the falling cherry blossoms, she could see a huge mountain covered with white snow, towering under the sky. She said in surprise:
"Mount Fuji? Why are we here?"
"This is where we inferred that the last Fukutsu sword is located." Shouta Hoshimi shrugged and said, "From the nine predictions given by [Mu Ji], we have temporarily identified three correct predictions.
, respectively, 'snow-covered ashes', 'place of falling cherry blossoms', and 'sacred place of worship'."
"The directions of these three prophecies are very vague. I have traveled to all possible places before but could not find the last Fujin sword. It was not until yesterday morning that Shota got the last prophecy that we finally locked in here.
"Amamiya Haruki said.
"What prophecy?" Yurina asked curiously.
"'Peak of Fury and Destruction'."
Yurina nodded in sudden realization.
In Japan, the only mountain that can be named as "destructive" is this huge active volcano. Combined with the white snow, cherry blossoms and place of worship, it is almost certain that the last Fukutsu sword is located in this place.
"But isn't this a natural scenic spot? Where does the danger come from?"
Sitting in the driver's seat, Furuhara Yoshiki asked in confusion.
"Just because there was no danger before, does not mean there is no danger now." Haruki Amamiya said again, "There is also a prophecy called 'The Place Guarded by the Corpse God' in the prophecy. At first, we based this prophecy on the direction of other prophecies.
It is listed as a false prophecy because there is no place where the so-called "Zombie Gods" gather in the whole of Japan.
But it's only recently that we've realized... the true meaning of this prophecy."
"Corpse God..." Yurina seemed to have thought of something, "Corpse beast? Are there corpse beasts gathering around here?"
"Yeah." Amamiya Haruki nodded, "That's why I said, if the prediction is wrong, it means there will be no resistance to this operation, but if this prediction is correct, then the risk factor here will be
greatly increase."
"However, even if there are really corpse beasts here, with our four Fujin sword masters joining forces, there shouldn't be any difficulty?"
"I hope so."
While the few people were talking, the vehicle had already arrived at the foot of Mount Fuji.
With the arrival of corpse beasts and the frequent riots in society, the entire "human circle" has become a mess. The originally bustling scenic spot can't be seen at this moment. Some buildings at the foot of the mountain have even been destroyed.
After being looted, the floor was filled with broken glass and dried blood.
"Let's go, just drive up." Amamiya Haruki looked around, "The prophecy mentioned 'snow-covered dust', which means that the altitude where the last Fukutsu sword is located must not be low. There is no need to waste it down there.
time."
Furuhara Yoshiki hummed, stepped on the accelerator, and the vehicle quickly climbed up the winding mountain road, shaking Yurina's face pale.
When the vehicle reached the end of the road, Yurina and Hoshimi Shota rushed out of the car at the same time and vomited on the side of the road. Amamiya Haruki got out of the car as if nothing was wrong, staring at the snow-capped peaks above his head, eyes narrowed slightly.
"It's so cold here." Yoshiki Furuhara closed the car door, rubbed his hands together, and exhaled a breath of water.
"It's pretty good here now, but the higher you climb to the top of the mountain, the colder it gets."
"Are we going to the top of the mountain?"
"Yes." Amamiya Haruki nodded, "If the sword is really on this mountain, then the most likely possibility is that it is on the top of the mountain."
After Yurina on the side finished vomiting, she breathed a long sigh of relief, stood up slowly and asked:
"Speaking of which, what is the name of this Fujin sword?"
"The second of the Nine Swords of Fujin, [Burial Mountain]." Amamiya Haruki said calmly, "Since this sword was forged, no one has seen it, and there has never been a sword owner... It only exists in
Among the legends.”
"[Burial Mountain]?" Shota Hoshimi looked up at the huge mountain in front of him, "No wonder it's in the mountain... But, how do you know it's at the top of the mountain?"
"It's just a guess. Since [Burial Mountain] has never appeared before the eyes of the world, it means that its location is extremely difficult for humans to reach, and the entire Mount Fuji only has the huge crater at the top.
Only then the conditions are met.”
"I see……"
"Xiao Yuri, we may need your [Chizuru] next to help us find the location of [Burial Mountain]." Amamiya Haruki pointed to the top of the snow mountain above, "Even if it reaches the top of the mountain, its range is too large.
It’s too big for the four of us to find it, and our climbing tools are not professional. We can’t get up to some particularly steep places.”
"give it to me."
Yurina put her hand on the handle of the knife at her waist and pulled out Chizuru half an inch.
Clang——!
With a soft sound, the snow-white sword at her waist turned into paper cranes all over the sky, flapping their wings and flying into the air.
After doing all this, Amamiya Haruki took a deep breath, looked at the top of the towering mountain in front of him, and spoke slowly:
