Evil Spirit Consultant

Chapter 249 Losing control
On a hillside not far from the courthouse, Yang Liu, Kurama Yuki, Uga Shoji, and Sasaki Reiko all arrived.

"I'm late……"

Sensing the changes in the atmosphere inside, Sasaki Reiko and Uga Shouji's expressions turned grim.

They rushed over after receiving Yokota Teru's message, but they were too late.

The changes in Moriyama Tetsu were irreversible, and the intensity of the violent negative energy emanating from that area terrified them.

Yang Liu, standing to the side, also looked grim, but his anger stemmed from another matter: "Damn it, are all the supernatural forces in Fukuoka dead?!"

On their way there, Yang Liu did not detect any trace of any superhumans, and even after they arrived at the scene, there were no traces of any superhumans other than themselves.

Such a big thing happened, and even a foreigner like myself rushed over, but the supernatural forces in the entire city of Fukuoka seemed completely indifferent.

Not to mention sending people over to deal with these problems, Yang Liu also couldn't detect any special energy emissions using his extraordinary vision, which means that the extraordinary forces in Fukuoka didn't even release any observation-type spells.

"Although this place is sparsely populated, it is at least within the city limits. The simultaneous eruption of poisonous gas and negative energy... If no one stops it, half of the people in this area will be wiped out, right?!"

Yang Liu was already tempted to turn around and leave. She didn't even want to get involved with the local supernatural forces in Japan, so naturally she, as a foreigner, didn't need to get involved either.

The others exchanged glances upon hearing this, and Uga Shoji lowered his head in shame: "I'm sorry..."

"Apologize my ass! This wasn't your fault. And your attitude is suspicious. Do you not know anything about what happened?" Yang Liu crossed her arms and leaned back strategically.

Uga Shouji didn't hesitate much, and after organizing his thoughts, he said, "The reason this is happening is probably because this target is part of the military's deification plan."

"?" Yang Liu asked, somewhat puzzled. "Is this guy also a hidden danger left over from that damn god-making plan?"

“No, it’s more accurate to call it a new ‘achievement’ rather than a hidden danger,” Sasaki Reiko shook her head from the side.

Yang Liu keenly sensed something was wrong: "What do you mean?"

"It means... the god-making project has started again." Uga Shouji took a deep breath.

Yang Liu lowered her head and thought for a moment before raising her head to look at him with a serious expression: "You mean, the failed god-making plan from twenty years ago has started again?!"

According to the intelligence provided by Yang Liu, the creation of gods was originally a "national policy" established in Japan during the Meiji Restoration. Its purpose was to research and create the most advanced artificial gods that could be deployed on the battlefield as "weapons of war".

Strictly speaking, Japan's first attempt at creating a god was actually successful, but it was thwarted by the two nuclear bombs dropped by the United States.

Twenty years ago, Japan, whose economy collapsed due to being exploited by the United States, learned its lesson and decided to restart its deification project in order to gain a powerful fighting force of its own.

Because the methods used during the research were too cruel, the previous abbot of Eifukuji Temple, Uga Norio, destroyed the experiment at his own expense and forcibly forced Kyushu, which was the main research site at the time, to split from the mainland.

This even damaged the national-level magic arrays throughout the Kyushu region, and the leaked energy caused a massive earthquake in the sea around Fukuoka.

Now, according to Shoji Uga, Japan is preparing to launch its third deification project.

“That’s right. As you know, our temple was in a rather special position after the last incident, so we didn’t receive any notification. But Yokota-kun and Sasaki-san should have already received the news.” Uga Shoji looked at Sasaki Reiko. Sasaki Reiko didn’t hide anything, shrugging and spreading her hands: “We received it. Actually, we received the relevant notification two or three months ago. However, our family is generally too lazy to get involved in this matter, so I’m not quite sure what stage this matter has reached now.”

"Their main testing site is still in Kyushu this time? But didn't you say last time that the supernatural forces in the Kyushu region had split from the Japanese government?" Yang Liu looked at Uga Shouji with a hint of doubt.

“It has indeed split apart, but…” Uga Shouji gave a bitter smile, not knowing what to say.

Sasaki Reiko noticed his embarrassment and continued, "The reason the previous split was successful was because those old fogies in Kyushu were cornered by his father."

However, when the government designated Kyushu as its primary experimental area, it wasn't just the opposition that existed; there were also quite a few neutral parties and supporters willing to act as their lackeys. After so much time, the losses incurred back then have become a bad debt, and the government leadership has changed several times.

If the authorities said that past transgressions would be forgiven and that anyone who assisted in completing the experiment could return to normal life, how many people do you think could resist that temptation?

At this point, Sasaki Reiko pursed her lips.

Judging from the situation at the time, the opposition was actually in the minority; the majority were supporters who wanted to profit from the experiment.

Even though her own family, the Mikami clan, only maintained a neutral stance back then, they were not qualified to criticize those extraordinary forces from a "moral" standpoint.

Throughout the entire Kyushu region, only the Eifukuji lineage truly stands atop the peak of morality, pointing fingers at others.

Yang Liu was too lazy to bother with the messy affairs of the Japanese government, and in this situation, his status as a foreigner made him seem quite "detached".

After all, even the most theoretically strongest finished product of the God-Making Project would only be about half an aircraft carrier in terms of combat power on the battlefield. Although it is indeed very strong, it is nothing special to the five permanent members of the UN Security Council.

"So that Moriyama Tetsu was the unlucky guy chosen by the military for their god-making project? The military didn't allow anyone else to come, also to prevent others from snatching the job?" Yang Liu laughed disdainfully.

"Yes……"

Both Uga Shouji and Sasaki Reiko felt ashamed in front of Yang Liu for their own country doing such a thing.

"That's it..."

Having learned the reason, Yang Liu's pupils turned completely black again, and she began searching for other things around her.

He soon reaped the rewards.

"The military you're talking about must be those people. Each of them is physically stronger than an ordinary person, but they haven't reached the level of superhumans yet, and they're carrying a lot of random equipment... Looks like that's the controller that's controlling this unfortunate guy, right? No wonder that spirit was running that way... Ugh?"

Before Yang Liu could finish speaking, a violent energy fluctuation suddenly erupted in the direction he was pointing.

Sensing the probing gazes of Uga Shoji and the other, Yang Liu spread her hands: "Now there's some bad news, those people failed... Speaking of which, the military should have had a backup plan when they were working, right?"

Uga Shouji and Sasaki Reiko fell silent upon hearing this, and Yang Liu, seeing this, was speechless: "I guess so... no, I mean, what do you mean?"
