In Iceland, Europe, under the mountains on the southern border, a quiet village is located here. There is only one road in the village leading to the nearest city. Small buildings are neatly arranged. Occasionally, a few smoke rises from the kitchen. If a car passes by, it often
You will hear dogs barking, because the climate is cold and the daily temperature is below zero, so you rarely see pedestrians on the roadside.
On the edge of this village, there is a small castle standing. The castle is covered with snow all year round and always has a sinister atmosphere. The lights that occasionally come on in the castle at night are also extremely dim, which makes the villagers even more suspicious.
What is puzzling is that they have rarely seen anyone coming in or out of the castle, and if a villager sneaks in, they will often see him fainted by his door the next day and become seriously ill, which is particularly frightening. Therefore, about
This castle is taboo among the villagers. As for the owner of the castle, no one has ever seen it before, making it even more mysterious and terrifying.
In fact, it is completely understandable that the villagers are afraid of the old castle, because there is really no living person in the old castle. The owner here is a ghost who should not exist. The only person who can communicate with him is an alchemy golem he made. At this time, a room in the castle was dimly lit. There was no electric light in the room, and it was still illuminated by an oil lamp. The light was dim, but it was enough for people to see clearly what was going on in the room.
The alchemical golem was in front of the desk, recording a set of the latest experimental data as flexibly and meticulously as a human being. Next to the laboratory, a slightly illusory figure controlled a bottle of potion and was carefully combining it with another bottle.
Mix the potions together, move gently, and concentrate on it, just like facing your lover.
Suddenly, a blood-colored magic circle drawn on the ground behind them moved. The runes on it gradually lit up one by one, and the light and dark lights flashed alternately, making the already gloomy room even more terrifying. The ghost owner also put down his mind.
Potion, slowly looked behind him.
The blood-colored magic circle gradually became brighter, and the surrounding lights seemed to turn pale. Then a black stream of light suddenly burst out from the magic circle and hovered in the room. After that, the magic circle gradually returned to calm.
The ghost stretched out his illusory hand and summoned the black light into his palm.
"Looking at you, did the matter fail?"
His face was expressionless, and he didn't even look at the palm of his hand when he spoke. He was still focusing on his alchemy potion, trying to see clearly any changes that occurred after the potion was mixed.
The black light squirmed and no sound came out, but the ghost knew what he said.
"I met 'X'. He appeared at my mission site and destroyed my arrangement in a way that can be called random. My physical body is gone now."
"X...you also met the mysterious landlord..." The ghost thought for a moment, then turned to look at the black light, "Without the body, you want to become a spirit like me?"
p>
The black streamer was anxious: "Please teach me. In this state, I can't last long with secret techniques. I need to transform my form as soon as possible. If you need anything, just ask."
"You have lived for thousands of years, your soul is already old, and the transformation success rate is not high, and..." The ghost looked at the black stream of light, its illusory face was extremely cold, "The mission failed, the test failed, Mr. Abe Seimei, I am very sorry
."
"Wait...what do you want to do?"
Black light... Abe Keimei seemed to notice something bad from the expression of the ghost in front of him.
The ghost did not answer. It opened its mouth and swallowed the last bit of Abe Keimei's soul in one gulp. No matter how hard Abe Keimei struggled, he could not escape from the opponent's grasp.
"Enves! You must die a good death!"
With the last roar, the furious soul rests in peace.
"A rotten soul...a waste of time."
With a whisper as thin as a mosquito, the gloomy and dark room returned to silence again.
...
After the chaos in the Five Burial Temple subsided, Mo Xiao and others sat in the guest room. Around them sat several senior officials from Yeguiji. The two sides still had some matters that needed to be discussed and explained.
"No! I don't agree! The Yata Mirror is the most important treasure of the Night Ghost Collection! We rely on it to suppress evil, so how can we lend it out at will?"
In the guest room, Gennai Kan walked around with his hands behind his back. He had just experienced a battle, and he was not in a panic. He was still full of energy, high energy, and had a very tough attitude.
"Although you saved Nanami's life, I am very grateful, but one code must be the same, and some things cannot be accommodated!"
Mo Xiao had no choice but to look at Yu Linglong sitting at the top: "What's your attitude?"
"I don't care, as long as you can convince Xiao Kuan." Yu Linglong spread her hands and looked at Ye Xiaoying, "I hope you understand that the Eight-tatami Mirror is not my own treasure, and I can't decide it with just one word." Of course, Ye Xiaoying had nothing to say. She was caught in the middle at this time, which was actually quite difficult to do. Nothing she said felt right.
Pallas rubbed her brows. She really didn't expect that things would develop like this. She could only say sincerely: "I believe everything has a price. Your disagreement is just empty talk. You make a request, as long as I can fulfill it."
Yes, I will do my best."
Gennai frowned: "I can trust the reputation of the goddess of wisdom Athena, and it is even more precious to get one of your requests, but the rules are the rules, and to purify the killing stone, the Yata Mirror is indispensable."
After hearing this, Mo Xiao quickly stood up and said: "You can leave, you don't need to worry about the killing stone anymore. We will help you solve the problem once and for all."
"Ah?"
The Yeguiji cadres in the guest room were all stunned.
"There is no more killing stone." Yu Linglong spoke, "There is no need to mention this matter again. Details will be explained later."
All the cadres looked at each other and were shocked in their hearts. But when the leader spoke, they still suppressed their curiosity and didn't ask any more questions. They just glanced at Mo Xiao unconsciously and there was nothing they could do about it.
Although the killing stone is said to be evil, it is still a "national treasure" after all, and it is just gone... Everyone present felt a little bit regretful.
Of course, it's just a pity. After all, that thing is not a good thing. There were monsters who tried to destroy it before, but no one could do it.
Hiroshi Genuchi's expression was also startled. He turned his head and glanced at Shiina Nanami, with a rather regretful tone: "It would be great if you were really Izawa Ryoma..."
"Haha..."
Mo Xiao laughed dryly. Mo Xiao had confessed before that he had disguised himself as Izawa Ryoma, but this identity is now useless.
Pallas knocked on the chair and said seriously: "The Eight-tatami Mirror is a treasure, but it is not as powerful as the Xuanyuan Sword and the Spear of Longinus. Without it, you will not suffer any losses.
And I can promise that if the Night Ghost Collection is in danger, I will come to the rescue as quickly as possible. As for the Asakusa Group, my words have a certain weight, and you will not lose no matter what."
The cadres present at the Night Ghost Festival were a little moved after hearing this. What Pallas said was indeed very reasonable, and Gennai Kan was silent. From a profit perspective, he lent a treasure that would not be used most of the time in exchange for
A strong ally, a good deal.
"Do you want the things you borrowed to be returned?" Yuan Naikan asked slightly.
Pallas immediately expressed his position: "As long as you need it, I can entrust them to help you send it back at any time. This landlord has the only space teleportation in the world. I guarantee it in the name of the Greek survivor Athena."
"Space teleportation?"
Everyone present was surprised. Teleportation abilities are extremely rare. A teleportation array map is a priceless treasure. As long as you have the ability to teleport, you can conquer the world. No one can afford to offend such an enemy.
Gennai Kan thought for a moment, discussed with several cadres, and finally nodded.
