Asura of Tomorrow's Ark

When Li Ang came to the street where the blacksmith shop was located, the old man had already noticed him, so Li Ang did not listen to Nian's instigation and break the lock on the blacksmith shop door.
When the old man saw Li Ang suddenly walking towards him, he subconsciously wanted to run away, but Li Ang was much faster than him and stopped him before he could escape.
"Uncle, let me ask you something, Miss Nian... does he live here?"
Chapter 1 Wanted Criminal
Seeing Li Ang blocking his way, the old man could only stop and asked with a wary look, "Why are you asking about this?"
"It's like this," Li Ang explained very sincerely, "I am an acquaintance of Miss Nian. I know that she runs a blacksmith shop here. This time I came to visit her, but I saw a lock on the door of the blacksmith shop. She Are you going out now?"
Li Ang did not mention place names such as Taoyuan City and Shang Shu, so as not to accidentally trigger the bug here. The old man's answer will determine what he does next.
If that blacksmith shop really belongs to Nian, then they have gained an identity that can integrate into the city. Similarly, other people are likely to have corresponding identities in this city.
Whether or not you want to use this identity is one thing, but having an identity is better than having a dark account.
Fortunately, the old man's answer did not exceed Li Ang's expectations.
The old man looked Li Ang up and down, and after confirming that he was indeed not a suspicious person, he calmed down and said, "It turns out he is an acquaintance of Master Nian... It's a pity that you came a little late, Master Nian has already moved away." ”
"What? Already moved?"
Li Ang pretended to be surprised and asked quickly, "When did she leave? Old man, do you know where she went?"
"It seems she left a week ago. I don't know where she went."
After thinking about it, the old man added, "But Master Nian has not sold this shop. Maybe she will come back one day."
[It turns out that this is the time...this place is quite evil. 】
Nian's voice came out from the scroll and floated into Li Ang's ears, but was not heard by the old man who was close at hand.
[I remembered who this person was. He was Uncle Lin who lived in the east. He must have been dead for decades now... It's incredible. He looked exactly like I remembered. 】
[He may have thought you were here to steal something. After all, there are a lot of things that I can’t take away. There are still a lot of valuable things inside. 】
"It's just the same as in your memory." Li Ang said lightly.
【……Too. 】
Humans are very complex creatures. Even two people who get along day and night may not be able to understand everything about each other.
The impression he had on other people was just an insignificant profile, so the Uncle Lin in front of him behaved exactly as he remembered in the past.
Nian understood what Li Ang meant, and the interest he had just mentioned was instantly gone. He even felt an unreasonable disgust. No one would like the feeling of having their memory peeked into.
She replied in the same calm tone, [But this feeling is really annoying. Find that person as soon as possible and find a way to get out of here. 】
"I'll try my best." Li Ang replied.
The conversation between the two seemed to attract Uncle Lin's attention. He twitched his eyebrows and asked, "What did you just say?"
"It's nothing, I just feel a little regretful. I didn't expect to miss it like this."
Li Ang had no intention of explaining to him, and quickly changed the subject, paving the way for Nian's next appearance, "I will come again in a while. I hope Miss Nian is only temporarily busy and will come back in a while." .”
Uncle Lin seemed to have not heard Li Ang's words. He frowned and looked at Li Ang's face carefully.
After a moment, he said thoughtfully, "Young man, you look familiar to me... I think I've seen you on TV. Are you a big shot in Uptown?"
Big man?
Could this be his identity reflected in this city?
Li Ang was slightly alert. If we want to talk about his status in Casimir, then he is indeed considered a big shot, but the problem is...
It's not just the big shots who appear on TV...don't photos of wanted criminals also appear on TV news?In a sense, this is considered a big shot.
So far, among Li Ang's two more profound memories, he is a director of Casimir Commercial Alliance, and the other is a wanted criminal designated by the twin queens... I don't know what is mapped to this city. Which identity.
Hope it's not the latter...
Li Ang showed a subtle smile, "How could I be a big shot..."
After leaving such words, Li Ang hurriedly ran away from Uncle Lin. Looking at his leaving figure, a flash of lightning seemed to flash in Uncle Lin's mind, and he finally remembered where he had seen that man. Young people.
He immediately shivered violently and ran away from where he was.
Isn't that the vicious criminal who appeared on TV just two days ago and is wanted by the whole city?
Uncle Lin's reaction naturally fell into Li Ang's perception. Just by looking at his reaction, Li Ang could probably guess what happened.
There is no doubt that that was the worst situation that Li Ang expected. This really made Li Ang a little confused about what to say.
Why does Nian have to become a wanted criminal when he can get a normal identity?But this is indeed his most profound memory.
After being depressed for a few minutes, Li Ang found a remote alley in this Chinatown, hid in it and released Nian.
Fortunately, Li Ang had developed a habit a long time ago. Even if he was rushing on the street, he would subconsciously avoid areas with dense crowds of people. Therefore, no one except Uncle Lin noticed his whereabouts all the way here. .
And after confirming his identity in this city from the side, Li Ang also realized that he could no longer act with great fanfare in this city. At least for other people in the world of the painting, Li Ang had to arrange a suitable place for them. .
The blacksmith shop in [-] is a good choice.
After telling Nian about her situation, she laughed mercilessly, but her low voice did not arouse Li Ang's disgust.
"Hahahaha, little brother, you are really powerful. This is a wanted criminal."
"...There's nothing funny about this."
Li Ang handed the two scrolls on his back to Nian, "I will leave this to you for safekeeping for the time being."
"OK OK, don't worry, just leave it to me," Nian stretched out his hand to take the scroll and asked casually, "But what are you going to do? Find a place to hide first? The wanted person on you seems to be quite tricky."
"No, I plan to go to Kabukicho alone to investigate."
"I... have some experience in evading pursuit."
Li Ang's tone seemed a little complicated.
Chapter 1 Kabukicho
After handing the two paintings to Nian, Li Ang did not leave in a hurry. Instead, he went to the painting to find Xi and got a palm-sized scroll from her.
The space in this painting is very small, less than the size of a room, and the entrance is too small to fit anything else in.
Moreover, Xi Zui's power inside can only maintain the painting for a week at most, and the time will be further shortened if used multiple times, but this is enough for Li Ang.
Xi was still thinking about how to cut off the connection between the world in the painting and this place, so Li Ang did not disturb her and left after getting the scroll.
At this time, a large group of policemen had heard the news and surrounded the street. It seemed that Li Ang really did not underestimate the intensity of this wanted order, and Uncle Lin's actions were decisive enough.
It was the same in Leitania at that time. The twin queens' pursuers were almost pervasive. It was not until Leon left the range of Leitania that the situation improved slightly.
After that, Nian swaggered out of the alley where they were hiding, squeezed in between the policemen, and asked in surprise, "Huh? What are you guys doing blocking the door of my house?"
"Master Nian?! Haven't you already left?"
Uncle Lin looked even more surprised when he saw her.
"Hey, something happened. I can only come back and live here for a while, but don't you explain what is going on with these people?"
"Actually, a very dangerous fugitive appeared here before, and they are tracking the whereabouts of that fugitive."
The other party never mentioned that Li Ang had said before that he was here to see Nian, which would cause some trouble to Nian, but Li Ang believed that she could solve it.
After confirming that there was no problem over there, Li Ang quietly left here.
The blockade set up by the police was in vain in Li Ang's eyes. No matter how powerful they were, they could not block all the loopholes in a short period of time. Li Ang jumped directly into the sewer and left the street underground.
Observing the situation above the ground with his senses, Li Ang moved forward in the sewer, which had some peculiar smell but was generally clean and tidy.
Returning to the state of acting alone after a long absence, Li Ang's brain was running rapidly, considering his next action plan.
"The ultimate goal is to reach Tianyue Mountain and destroy the resurrection ceremony of the Sui Beast there."
This is not difficult for Li Ang. If it is a complete Sui Beast, he may have to worry a little bit, but if it is an incomplete resurrection - like the reflection he saw in Xi's dream that day, even if it is more than ten times stronger Li Ang won't be afraid.
All the incarnations have not gathered together, and the Sui Beast cannot be fully resurrected. For Li Ang, the only difficulty is how to reach Tianyue Mountain.
If you want to reach Tianyue Mountain, you must first pass through this twisted area.
After thinking for a moment, Li Ang thought of a fairly reliable method.
"So the focus of the investigation is the 'religion' here..."
The image of Rui is that of a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl from the Eastern Kingdom. There are too many people who fit this profile in this city. Finding her directly would be like finding a needle in a haystack. However, Li Ang can change his mind. Start with the best results.
If Rui's fate is to be sacrificed, it would be easier to go directly to the church that wants to sacrifice her. Compared with a specific person, the goal of the entire church is much greater.
Considering that the church may also be distorted into a completely different appearance, it would be safer to simply investigate all churches.
Li Ang took out something similar to an account book from the scroll. This is a prop used for communication within Dali Temple when performing special tasks. Although there will be a certain delay in transmitting information due to distance, the scope of this prop is really It is so vast that it can even allow people from two different mobile cities to communicate.
However, if you do that, the delay is expected to be one to two days.
Just in this city, the maximum delay should not exceed 10 minutes.
Now Li Ang, Xuancheng, and Nian are divided into three groups, and each of them has such a ledger.
After thinking about it, Li Ang sorted out his thoughts and recorded them in the ledger. In a few minutes, the same handwriting would appear on the ledgers in the hands of the two people.
He is currently wanted, so it is not very convenient for him to inquire about information. Xuancheng is also looking after the father and son, so he can only rely on years to do this.
"Then there is the place where the ceremony will be held. Preparation for the ceremony is a quite long process, and they should have done part of the preliminary work by now."
The venue of the ceremony is not randomly chosen. If a bloody sacrifice is to be held, it should at least be in a relatively closed or sparsely populated place, such as the Opera House, the Square Pier, and other places.
In the former case, as long as the theater door is closed tightly, what happens inside will not be known to outsiders.
The latter is a place where not many people go. As soon as night falls, the empty and uninhabited environment is an excellent place to hold ceremonies.
Thinking of this, Li Ang realized that the factory area where Xuancheng was now was also a good choice, so Li Ang added a few more entries to the account book, reminding Xuancheng to pay attention to the surrounding situation, and if that didn't work, go and join Nian and the others.
While recording in the ledger, before he knew it, Li Ang had crossed several blocks from the sewer and arrived at the 'Kabukicho' near Chinatown.
After finding a deserted corner, Li Ang quietly got out of the sewer.
Neon lights of various colors crowd the surrounding high-rise buildings, and shrill heavy metal music fills every corner.
This seems to be an alley next to a bar. The alley is filled with a nauseating smell. The vomit left by the drinkers at the entrance has not been cleaned up for a long time and has condensed into a thick layer. plate.
There seemed to be a vague smell of blood, but since the smell here was really disgusting, there was no thought of looking for the source of the blood smell.
Li Ang already regretted coming here. Even the air here was filled with the smell of human desire. Li Ang didn't think Liu Yi would be in this place. Her painting style didn't match here at first glance. She found it in the deep mountains and old forests. Her chances are actually higher.
What makes Li Ang a little curious is whose memory is mapped here. It can't be him anyway. Although there are similar places in Casimir, he has never been there.
You’ve come here, why not go out and have a look?Maybe there will be some unexpected gains.
After hesitating for a moment, Li Ang stepped over the dirt on the ground and walked toward the world outside the alley.
Chapter 111 Meeting Shuiyue again
Leaving aside an exposed woman who wanted to pounce, Li Ang moved slightly towards the center of the street, away from the bars and nightclubs on both sides of the road.
Street girls with heavy makeup, gangsters with sinister faces, big spenders, criminals with ulterior motives... This place is filled with too many people with different purposes. Even if Li Ang covered his face, he was still among these people. It doesn't look suspicious at all.
The atmosphere of drunkenness and gold fills every inch of space here, and the manifestations of human desires are everywhere.
Everything here perfectly conforms to Li Ang's imagination of 'Kabukicho'. Even if he has never been here, after seeing the scene here, Li Ang can still sigh with emotion.
That's right... the real Kabukicho is definitely not like this.
Li Ang was already aware that what appeared here was not only their memories, but also their fantasies. This area was born from his imagination.
The first time I saw the word 'Kabukicho' was in a novel that Li Ang downloaded from somewhere. The author of that book obviously knew little about this area and instilled a lot of wrong knowledge into Li Ang. Even though Li Ang later read it through the Internet Once you understand the truth, you won't be able to reverse your wrong impression of the place for a while.
Apart from anything else, just seeing the tall 'Ginza Building' not far away made Li Ang somewhat speechless.
Later he learned that Ginza refers to an area, not a single building. This was obviously projecting his wrong impression into reality.
This is one of the reasons why Li Ang feels that it is useful to the father and son. Obviously what is reflected here is the 'deepest impression', not the correct impression, which means that if a person is deceived, even if he knows the truth later, in This place may also reflect a lie that has a deeper impression.
Li Ang's eyes swept through the shops on the street, using his perception to screen everyone inside one by one.
But along the way, apart from some relatively restricted scenes, Li Ang didn't gain much. He did find a few places where gangs used to hide corpses, which seemed useless when he thought about it.
After walking through most of Kabukicho, the noisy people in my ears gradually became quieter.
