Chapter 153 Now, it’s my turn to ambush others

Seeing that Fang Yi had not responded for a long time and had a confused expression on his face, Mitsuri Kanroji scratched her head, and she became even more anxious.

The female swordsman, who was known for her strong physique, was a little excited. She grabbed Fang Yi's hand and exerted a little force. Fang Yi involuntarily leaned towards her and experienced the feeling of being hit by a ball.

The distance between the two people became dangerous and ambiguous, and Fang Yi could even smell the perfume the other person had lit.

This female swordsman seems to like using some perfumes recently. Of course, it is different from Shinobu Kocho's perfume. Fang Yi just came out from Shinobu Kocho, so naturally he has something to say about the smell of the Insect Pillar.

Mitsuri Kanroji opened her clear and bright eyes, as innocent as a deer that one might occasionally encounter while walking in the woods. However, the teardrop mole under her eye moved slightly with the words that came out of her mouth, and coupled with the flesh that she could feel when she got close to Fang Yi's body, her whole body exuded an extremely seductive and charming aura.

Her words were more direct, and she bravely played the straight ball.

"Fang Yi, I really know how to use the [Red Blade] now!"

"I'm not lying to you. I was the first one among the Pillars to learn it. I learned it faster than Mr. Gyoumei of Sadomasamura and Mr. Minami Fushigawa."

Fang Yi didn't say anything. Now everything was going according to his plan. Now that he had some free time, he planned to tease Mitsuri Ganlu Temple to relieve his tired brain.

Seeing that Fang Yi didn't react, Ganlu Temple Mitsuri became even more anxious. She held Fang Yi's hand tightly, using a little force with her fingers for fear that Fang Yi would run away.

At the same time, he handed over his Sun Blade, wanting Fang Yi to touch it. The message conveyed by his body language was full of determination and eagerness.

"Touch it and see if it's hot or not."

"Just give it a try, just give it a try."

The tone was very normal, with a sweet air, as mellow and sweet as the catchy songs that an idol group edited and shoved into their albums. The lines seemed very normal, but Fang Yi always felt that they sounded a little weird.

Listening to the other party's words, Fang Yi felt as if his face was run over by a car wheel, but it seemed that he was not run over. He couldn't help but think in his heart.

"This sentence seems normal, but it also seems abnormal."

"Ms. Kanroji Mitsuri, you're probably saying the lines I should be saying."

"And if I said it, there's a chance this part would be blocked for review."

Fang Yi looked at the female swordsman who was blinking with anticipation, and it was difficult for him to say no. He could only touch the other's soft knife lightly, and he really felt the burning sensation.

This soft sword, which requires tremendous arm strength to wield for both offense and defense, has been attached with a kind of energy thanks to the efforts of Mitsuri Kanroji, linking it with the [Reversal Technique·Strengthening] that Fang Yi had attached to it before to form the [Red Sword], while maintaining it for a longer time through high-frequency vibrations.

The soft sword used by Mitsuri Ganlu Temple can be called a strange weapon. Although it has the effect of attack and defense, Fang Yi, who has a certain understanding of swordsmanship and combat, believes that this weapon is a differentiated design made by the author to highlight the characteristics of the character.

After all, if this female swordsman continues to use an ordinary Nichirin sword, the character will have no memorable points at all, and will become lacking in characteristics and become homogenized.

Of course, the memorable point of this character in Fang Yi's mind is mainly concentrated on the coser with a high degree of exposure.

This soft sword nominally has both offensive and defensive capabilities, and sounds very fancy, like a unique skill, but in fact it is an extreme waste of the female swordsman's physical talent.
-
Of course, the physical talent here does not mean that you can't really see the toes. At the same time, the shaking is as ups and downs as Rangiku Matsumoto from Bleach and Tsunade from Naruto. It is very spectacular and very obvious that there is top-level physical talent.

Rather, it specifically refers to the fact that this female swordsman has eight times the muscles of an ordinary person and has a very strong ability to withstand blows. Of course, Fang Yi has not yet fully understood the specific effect of eight times the muscles and cannot make a definitive conclusion, but the female swordsman's combat performance in the original novel is that she is very resistant to blows.

Take, for example, Upper Rank Four, Hantengu, who was instantly slain by Fang Yi with a single blow, never having the chance to unleash his second stage. While others would have been left with a bloody head and severe injuries from a single blow, this female swordsman survived with virtually no damage.

According to the panel standards of the space, the talents of this female swordsman may be damage immunity and minimum damage blocking, and her characteristics may also have some anti-attack effects, which is a very classic team tank position.

He is as durable as Phantom Assassin with Poor Man's Shield and a few levels of Refraction, or Kai with Skyrim and ultimate. He is a heavy-armored warrior who is both tanky and deals damage.

This female swordsman is more suitable for boxing than Fang Yi. She is very good at taking the domineering route of a pirate, or the extreme muscular route of starting as a martial arts apprentice or in the slums. Practicing body-building exercises such as Dragon Elephant Prajna will be very effective. If you like Western fantasy and the two-dimensional world, you can take a look at the route of the Paladin.

Of course, her value as a follower is definitely higher than that of Shinobu Kocho. At the same time, because of her good talent, combat effectiveness, and development potential, the price Fang Yi will have to pay to take her away will also be very high.

However, in order to cultivate this follower, a lot of resources are needed, and she needs to be given many skills, such as martial arts and body-building techniques for cultivating immortals.

Even according to the general Jidao thinking, she would have to prepare a huge amount of medicinal materials, pills, and nutritious monster flesh and blood for practicing martial arts, which ordinary people could not afford.

[It would be best if I could take her to a quest world like that, like a toilet paper alternate world, with lots of monster materials, so she can get some benefits through non-quest methods.]

[It would be best if an enemy who practices immortality or martial arts could give me a secret manual so that I can refer to the muscle training techniques and deduce a physical training martial arts book.]

Fang Yi had an idea and suddenly felt that he was a little greedy. These elements were not something that could be provided by the world of Tier 1. He would have to wait until he completed a breakthrough of 20 points in the naked equipment attributes and went to the world of Tier 2 to encounter them.

[Is it possible that my next mission will accidentally lead me to a world at Level 2?]

Fang Yi had already sensed that the followers he had taken away through the quota in the main god space should have some restrictions on their use.

He now only retains the number of the main god space, but he is afraid that he cannot follow the process of the main god space and participate in the mission world normally like the reincarnations in the main god space.

But Fang Yi didn't think it was troublesome to take Ganlusi Mitsuri away, as he could provide all the conditions for training Ganlusi Mitsuri.

Moreover, rather than cooperating with the Reincarnators, Fang Yi would rather use the channels to obtain more points and other resources to train a teammate who he can trust.

If you give a piece of bread to a starving person, he will be very grateful to you. But if you give a piece of bread to a person living a normal life, it will be difficult to get his gratitude.

The same goes for powerful followers. Fang Yi doesn't think he can easily find a strong person who is willing to follow him.

What's more, people's hearts are hidden, and followers are not complete puppets. It is impossible for oneself to know the other party's thoughts at all times. When facing desperate situations, it is still unclear whether the other party is willing to persist in fighting.

Even darker, followers don't have to fight to the death, they can just give in a little and engage in passive resistance.

Fang Yi had seen in the 700-point strategy book cases where followers betrayed the people they followed in order to obtain the qualifications of a reincarnation, and cases where followers turned the tables and became the masters.

Followers you cultivate early on are more reliable than followers you acquire later. It's like an employee joining a team at the very beginning versus one joining later; the sense of belonging and mission between the two differs significantly. The former are willing to play alongside you in tough situations, while the latter might just give up if things get tough.

Mitsuri Kanroji and Shinobu Kocho now have a good impression of me. At the same time, through the experience of upgrading and fighting together in the future, I can firmly bind each other and get a teammate who truly trusts each other.

After all, medicinal materials can be developed and rubbed by Shinobu Kocho, and then she can refine the medicines herself, using a high-quality development route to make up for the lack of quantity.

As for the techniques and skills, you can first use [Supernormal Gravity] to teach them to the female swordsman, and then use [Diligent Learning and Progress] to teach them, saving a lot of training costs.

But there are very few people who are trustworthy and willing to live and die with you.

More importantly, Mitsuri Kanroji is a talented person and will master the skills quickly.

However, this is different from Fang Yi, a genius who has a high level of comprehension, solid theoretical knowledge, and the ability to explain principles by analogy.

She is a genius of sensibility.
-
Mitsuri Kanroji is a genius of the sensual school. Fang Yi came to this conclusion after hearing her incoherent narration mixed with all kinds of abstract and strange metaphors.

Although I don't understand why Mitsuri Kanroji converted the clear and concise [Red Blade] techniques taught by Yuto Nakamori into a description of how to make a pudding and a dish.

But the lingering burning aura coming from the opponent's soft knife was undoubtedly the [Red Blade], and it was a [Red Blade] that lasted longer than that of Nakamori Yuto.

Even because the Nichirin Sword she used was a soft whip-like sword, it would be more difficult for her to maintain the [Red Sword] through high-frequency strikes than for ordinary people.

But this female swordsman mastered this skill purely by intuition, but if you ask her to explain how she did it, she can't explain it clearly.

Just like in the original work, after she learned the [Marks], the other swordsmen of the Demon Slayer Corps wanted her to share her experience, but they found that her description was of no reference value.

She is the kind of genius who can do it herself but cannot tell others about it, unlike Fang Yi, a genius who understands and can talk about it.

He is very suitable to be Fang Yi's loyal partner in [diligent study and progress].

Fang Yi looked at the swordswoman who was full of expectations for him and wanted him to take her to the battle. He was determined to take her with him, not only to let her participate in the battle to kill the second Upper Moon, Douma, but also to let her participate in more battles.

Seeing the female swordsman's anxious attitude, as if she was afraid that he would not take her into the battle, Fang Yi pondered for a moment, pretending to think, and then gave his answer.

"Okay, then please join my team, Miss Ganlu Temple."

[Just testing the trigger conditions for obtaining a portion of my combat experience bonuses like [Diligent Learning], such as [Fang Yi Combat Experience Card - 3-Minute Version].]

[After Kanroji Mitsuri mastered the [Red Blade], she became qualified to participate in this battle with Upper Rank Two, Douma, and further trained herself through the battle.]

If she becomes a member of my team, she must be prepared to be a beneficiary of my lifelong diligence and progress.

As Fang Yi nodded, the female swordsman became visibly happy, like a child whose parents promised to buy her a toy.

If she hadn't been concerned about the swordsmen coming and going, this female swordsman would have jumped, shaken, and cheered.

Fang Yi laughed secretly. Ganlu Temple Mitsuri was the type who couldn't hide her inner thoughts. She was like a traditional naive girl, but she was a very nice person, although a little narrow-minded.

Just like she had just grabbed Fang Yi's hand, pulled Fang Yi over, and after getting close to Fang Yi's body, she bumped into people with the ball several times, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

At the same time, she seemed to smell Shinobu Kocho's perfume, and like a provoked beast, she fought back.

Therefore, after this close contact, the scent of Shinobu Kocho's perfume on Fang Yi's body has been covered by the scent of Mitsuri Kanroji's perfume.

But Fang Yi did not refuse. After all, this would be one of the few times before the decisive battle when he could still enjoy his daily life.
-
It was not until Fang Yi walked to his residence that Ganlu Temple Mitsuri seemed to wake up from a dream and remembered the important matter. She folded her hands and began to ask Fang Yi questions.

"Um, how do we find the Upper Two?"

"Just wait for it at his cult? Wouldn't that be a bit inefficient?"

"Let the swordsmen search for it like searching for a needle in a haystack. This ghost probably only appears at night. Ordinary swordsmen will die if they encounter it."

At this moment, our Miss Mitsuri Kanroji's IQ has finally returned to its peak, and she has begun to think about how to complete the first step in killing the Second Upper Moon, Douma - finding this demon.

Fang Yi nodded, directly agreeing with Ganlu Temple Mitsuri's somewhat ordinary idea.

"Yes, that's what I'm going to do. Of your options, I'll choose 'all of the above'."

"I planned to ambush the enemy cult at their base, and sent the swordsmen to look for it. I also did a little extra work."

"When I became the leader of the Demon Slayer Corps and was able to mobilize more resources, it became easy to kill them."

Mitsuri Kanroji was a little confused, but still chose to believe Fang Yi. She turned around and prepared to ask Fang Yi how to quickly find Rengoku Kyojuro.

Then the members of the Demon Slayer Corps spoke in human language. The crow that had ignored Fang Yi during the trip to Nada Spider Mountain landed on Fang Yi's shoulder and respectfully began to report on the progress of the mission.

"The whereabouts of Lord Rengoku Kyojuro have been confirmed."

Fang Yi watched the last rays of the sun disappear and was about to step into the dark sky. He straightened his messy clothes and said to Mitsuri Ganlu Temple.

"Your next question should be, how did you find him in half a day?"

Before Kanroji Mitsuri, who was surprised and thought Fang Yi had the ability to read minds, could react, Fang Yi had already revealed the answer.

"And my answer would be."

"It's just a little bit of forensic knowledge combined with technology, my friend."
