Chapter 223 Water Blue Star 2.0 Patch: Obon Blockbuster Released
In just one day, Kyoto's population dropped by a quarter. Most of the remaining people were people who couldn't get tickets for flights and trains and were forced to go home due to heavy traffic jams on the roads.
The turmoil in Kyoto and the large influx of Kyoto people have also raised the overall tense atmosphere in the island country to a higher level. In the past, at this time, everyone was busy preparing for the upcoming fireworks display, and the streets, schools, and houses were full of lively atmosphere.
But this year everything is so silent.
Dusk has not yet arrived, and the shops on both sides of the street have closed early. Even the convenience stores and custom stores that are open 24 hours a day have closed their doors tightly for fear of receiving different customers during this different festival, and the residential areas are even more crowded.
He looks lifeless...
However, the extraordinary power of the island country has not been affected by these changes. The investigation team, the Public Security Bureau, Shinto, and temples are all making intensive preparations. From the rising sun to the setting sun at dusk, the time passes minute by minute to ten o'clock in the evening.
point.
When the ten o'clock bell rang, a cold current suddenly burst out and swept through the hearts of every island citizen.
Obon Festival, according to old legend, at this time of year, the underworld will briefly merge with the present world, and Hirazaka and other gates to the human world will open. Those who have passed away will return to the world under the watchful eyes of the underworld officer.
, from the early hours of midnight to midnight of the next day, staying for a whole day and night.
In a highway tunnel on the outskirts of Tokyo, the bright emergency lights on both sides turned dim and dim at some point. The lights on both sides of the exit leading to the city were all extinguished at some point, and a few groups of bright blue lights
Flames danced up and down at the mouth of the tunnel.
crunch
The harsh sound came, as if there was a flash of light. The old wooden door that had been covered in dust for countless years was being slowly pushed open. Gray-white mist spewed out from a dark tunnel, passing by the grass and trees on the roadside.
The ground was covered with a thin layer of white frost. The earthy color was like a desert, and a liquid as viscous as silt slowly flowed out of a dark tunnel.
When the decayed wooden door stopped making creaking sounds, a thin white mist also completely shrouded the vicinity of the tunnel exit. The tunnel entrance, which was deep and dark and could not be seen, suddenly became bright. A flash of ancient city gates replaced the original tunnel exit.
, an ancient stone road appeared in front of the "gate" of the tunnel and continued to the end of the line of sight. Numerous figures appeared on this narrow road paved with a thin layer of yellow water, and pairs of eyes looked at the world outside the door.
Cast a malicious look.
...
Although the incident occurred in the suburbs, a large number of people who volunteered to support the cause were invested in the investigation team. The entire island country, except for the truly remote countryside and sparsely populated cities, even inside the forest, a small number of people were placed on the top of the mountain.
Surveillance equipment engraved with magic. Main roads and urban areas are even more densely packed.
Knowing that something was definitely going to happen, the staff of the Public Security Department kept switching among hundreds of thousands of cameras, and soon discovered this strangely changing suburban tunnel.
"This... Hirasaka, the road to the underworld has appeared!"
"What is that, what is it? Eyes... so many eyes, hiss, are these demons? Can we really stop such a terrifying number?" The staff member who discovered the problem felt that the pairs of eyes on the opposite side
It was as if he was looking at himself through the screen, and his scalp felt numb for a while.
"Quickly, contact the investigation team quickly and ask the foreign affairs team waiting in the city to set off quickly. Those sealed in the underworld are extremely vicious monsters. We must not let them come to the world!"
"No, it's not just monsters. Didn't Saori Godson say it before, weird things, evil spirits, and even ancient, evil gods... Oh my god, it's over, it's all over!"
During the joint operation of the Public Security Department and the investigation team, the ancient city gate at the entrance of the suburban tunnel changed again. The city gate that was originally closely connected with the wall of the tunnel entrance was rapidly expanding, exceeding a hundred meters in height in just a few minutes.
However, it is still expanding at this time. And the shadowy figures behind the door are gradually becoming real. They are vicious monsters that exist in legends and stories, evil spirits floating in the air with scarlet eyes and ferocious faces.
And at the end of the scene, there are illusory figures that reach into the sky and the earth, like the world-destroying demon god.
Until this moment, the demons behind the door were crowded eagerly and anxiously, as if they were waiting for something.
Hiroshi Yasuda's scalp went numb while watching this scene, but he also breathed a sigh of relief quietly. He raised his eyes and looked at the time on the monitor: 10:35:54 at night, less than an hour and a half before the Bon Festival. Also
Opportunities, there are still opportunities. However, the next moment the secretary rushed into the room in a panic, breathless and anxiously shouted:
"Ministry, Mr. Minister, other branches called. At ten o'clock, all cities experienced abnormal scene changes. According to preliminary feedback, it is suspected that the Gate of Underworld was opened in multiple places at the same time. Moreover, a gate appeared directly in Sanchong
Outside the county, a figure as tall as a mountain walked out and dragged Saori Shenzi away."
"I..." At this moment, Hiroshi Yasuda thought of ten thousand curse words, but when he opened his mouth, he found that he couldn't say anything. What can he say, unruly? It's funny, monsters can reason with people.
?
"Stop it, you have to stop it. So what, let us at Sensoji Temple inform Master Kamikawa and ask for help from Tamamo Goddess."
"Tamazao Lord...but that one is a big monster!"
Yasuda Hiroshi's face darkened, he looked up at his secretary and cursed in his heart for being short-sighted. At the same time, he scolded: "Those who do evil are monsters, and those who accept offerings are gods. Besides, if we don't ask that person for help, we ourselves will have trouble."
Does it close the ancient city gate to Hirasaka, or does it prevent those monsters from getting out of the ancient city gate?"
The secretary reacted immediately, made a big blush, turned around and ran out in a hurry. Hiroshi Yasuda snorted behind him, not bothering to argue with this short-sighted woman.
It's just... I looked back at the computer, and I still felt horrified. Just one Gate of Hell was already giving me a huge headache, and it was opened in different places, giving me no way to survive. The scariest one was the one outside Mie Prefecture.
One way. Ise Shrine is the divine domain of the Dragon God. If you dare to open the door here, you are either a fool, or you are certain that you can run away even if you can't beat it. The possibility of the former is very small...
