Both start in hell: but their talents are multiplied a hundredfold.

The first human-shaped balloon had already floated directly above Shen Jue.

The steel cable, twisting like a snake, hung down from the bottom of the balloon, swaying slowly in the air, as if measuring the distance from the sky to Shen Jue's neck.

Tong Hui instinctively took a step back, calmly waiting for Shen Jue to deal with these human balloons.

In the past, Kirie had seen this scene many times.

Her gaze was fixed on the first balloon with a human head on it that fell.

The face on the balloon depicting Shen Jue's head is smiling at her.

No, he wasn't smiling at her, he was smiling at Shen Jue himself.

The eyes on that face curved into crescent shapes, the corners of the mouth stretched to the ears, and the whole face displayed an abnormal, nauseating joy.

It's like a child finally finding a toy they've lost for a long time.

Shen Jue finally raised his hand.

His movements were so slow that Kirie felt as if time itself had been stretched out in that moment.

The hand with its distinct knuckles and long, slender fingers slowly rose above the head, its five fingers slightly spread, as if grasping something.

Shen Jue spoke.

The sound was not loud, even very soft, but it carried an indescribable power.

It felt like a thin needle piercing the membrane on the surface of the balloon.

"You've got the wrong person."

The dozen or so balloons shaped like human heads stopped at the same time.

This is a physical stop.

Time and spacetime have been frozen.

Kirie maintained that terrified yet calm demeanor.

The human-shaped balloons floated in the air, but did not move with the wind.

Their expressions remained unchanged.

But there was no way to move it even an inch.

Behind Shen Jue, his substitute, Yu Ri Xi He, appeared and gently stroked Shen Jue's chin with both hands.

These human-shaped balloons are looking at Shen Jue.

But this wasn't seeing; it was merely a tiny insect in frozen spacetime emitting an unconscious gaze that no one could understand.

Shen Jue snapped his fingers.

A very soft "snap".

A golden-red high-energy ray gently shot out from the Sun Goddess.

It streaks across the sky from left to right.

A series of muffled cracking sounds came from the sky, as if something had been crushed at the same time.

Time began to pass.

Tong Hui looked up and saw that more than a dozen human-shaped balloons in the sky exploded at the same time, and the white and gray fragments fell down like snowflakes.

These balloons bursting at the same time, resembling a single, rhythmic drumbeat, create a powerful visual effect.

Shen Jue's expression shifted slightly, as if a pair of delicate hands were gently stroking his face.

That's the meme effect of a human head balloon bursting.

When a human cloned from a human head balloon is damaged, the damage is also applied to the cloned human.

But to Shen Jue, it was just a matter of high-energy rays.

Its power is no less than that of a lover's caress.

It will only add a little romance to Shen Jue's relationship with the human head balloon meme curse.

As grayish-white fragments scattered across the sky, Shen Jue's consciousness stirred.

Several Tomie Aberration Type 1s of the people leaped up from various parts of Black Vortex Town, collecting the gray-white fragments at supersonic speeds and then sending them to the underground vortex ruins.

The human head balloon attack was over, and Shen Jue felt only boredom.

Junji Ito is very active in the world of martial arts. To date, all of Shen Jue's abilities and talents can be used by Junji Ito.

This has led to the current strength and diversity of Shen Jue's abilities and powers.

It should be noted that the superposition of the talents of Shen Jue and others within the white space is a multiplier than the superposition of the talents of the original two Shen Jue!

In other words, the stronger Shen Jue is, the higher the amplification multiplier, and the more terrifying the intensity of this amplification becomes.

Shen Jue's current innate abilities have reached a combined strength of 1400 times.

After seeing the balloons with human heads bursting in the sky, Tong Hui's cherry-like mouth remained open for a long time.

Even though it wasn't the first time she had seen it, Kirie was still shocked.

She saw Shen Jue's hands fall down, and while he appeared relaxed and at ease, he seemed to be carrying a very heavy responsibility and destiny.

Meanwhile, Goro, who was standing to the side, glanced at Yu Ri Xi He behind Shen Jue out of the corner of his eye, and continued to throw stones into the well without stopping.

As an individual with superhuman mental strength and perception, Goro was able to clearly see the Yu Ri Xi He behind Shen Jue.

However, Kirie was unable to see Mihi Xihe.

The Sun Goddess flickered for a moment and then disappeared.

"The human head balloon is nothing to worry about," Shen Jue said in a low voice, his voice as calm as a teacher in class.

"The human-shaped balloons that represent heads have now disappeared from Japan and even the whole world."

"As one of the world-ending disasters, if it weren't for my extraordinary sixth sense, finding the source of the head balloon meme curse would have been extremely difficult."

That's too sinister. If the original form of the human head balloon meme curse had consciousness, it would definitely be furiously criticizing Shen Jue's unreasonable sixth sense.

No kind soul could find the cursed entity hiding underground without any special markings just by instinct!

That's completely unreasonable.

In the distance, the people's Tomie Aberration Type 1 diligently guards the town of Kurozuchi. These expressionless, beautiful, doll-like biological weapons are now one of the world's nightmares.

With expressionless faces, the enigmatic yet beautiful Tomie Legion, like worker ants, ruthlessly plundered the resources Shen Jue needed from all over the world.

Those marine creatures with mechanical legs that came ashore from the ocean became a speed bump for Tomie's army.

These biological resources were easily collected and compiled by the Tomie Legion.

Shen Jue, relying on his sixth sense, found the machine that was constantly producing mechanical legged monsters on the seabed of the Pacific Ocean early on.

The machine is now completely out of service, and the cursed virus and methane have not re-emerged.

This saved Shen Jue a lot of energy.

Every few seconds, a muffled, explosive sound could be heard in Black Vortex Town.

Those pale white figures darting through the mountains and forests at supersonic speeds are like living blades, drawing arcs in the sky that are almost imperceptible to the naked eye.

And each time he returns, he brings Shen Jue the items she needs from the outside world.

Shen Jue turned around and walked deeper into Black Vortex Town.

His back was slender and straight, his steps unhurried, as if he were walking in an ordinary, uncursed town.

As he crossed the intersection, he casually straightened a lamppost that was curled up in a vortex shape.

The metal was as soft as noodles in his hands.

After the lamppost was twisted back to its normal shape, he felt something was wrong and rolled it into a swirl shape again.

After glancing at the swirling streetlights, Shen Jue sighed, uprooted the entire lamppost, and tossed it into the nearby yard.

Tong Hui stood there, watching Shen Jue's figure disappear into the shadows at the alley entrance.

A gust of wind blew by, and she shivered, reaching out to hug her arm.

The reason why Kirie is still staying in Black Vortex Town is not only to accompany Goro, but also because she wants to know Shen Jue's purpose and origin.

Since Shen Jue, who was originally a teacher in Black Vortex Town, started traveling to various places in Black Vortex Town.

Those bizarre curses and horrifying stories are becoming increasingly rare.

But those dolls that looked identical and didn't resemble humans brought new fears to Black Vortex Town and Sun Island.

Humans fear Shen Jue and his Tomie Legion as much as they fear the unreasonable curses themselves.

Tong Hui felt as if she had simply jumped from the vortex of Black Vortex Town into another vortex called Shen Jue.

An invisible, intangible, and deadly vortex centered on Shen Jue has engulfed the Earth.

Kurozuki Town is now empty, with only Kirie, Goro, and those silent white dolls remaining.

And Shen Jue, who is so handsome he seems unreal, is trying everything he can to save this damned world from the curse.

Shen Jue has decided to leave Black Vortex Town.
