At the end of the road, there are signs around that read "[Private Property, No Entry Without Permission]". In front of you stands a Western-style mansion on the shore, facing the azure waters of Chiba Port. It looks elegant and dreamy in the midday sun.
The only thing that spoiled the atmosphere was a group of burly men in black standing in front of the mansion. They stood respectfully in a line, and led by the old man of the East City Gang, they all bowed and said, "Welcome, esteemed sirs."
Fujimaru Ritsuka glanced around and saw that the familiar faces she had seen before were still there, especially Goto Yuuma and Sohara Yuta, who were standing quite close to the front. She wondered if their status within the organization had risen again.
He scanned the people in front of him expressionlessly, and the members of the East City Group dared not straighten up until they heard a response. They felt a sharp gaze sweep over them, a chilling sensation like having a blade pointed at their back during a shootout, and they couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
In swordsmanship, there is a technique called "witnessing," and Fujimaru Ritsuka was merely using the experience she had inherited to test it out, which proved to be very effective against ordinary people.
Withdrawing her deliberately used eyewitness technique, Fujimaru Ritsuka snorted, "Look up, all of you. Don't bother with these formalities anymore; I find them troublesome."
call.
The entire Tojo Clan straightened up. Even those unaware of Fujimaru Ritsuka's background stopped underestimating the young men and women before them, but they couldn't help but wonder: who exactly were these big shots? They didn't exude the aura of yakuza, yet they were far more ruthless and powerful. But they remembered their leader saying they were semi-officially recruited.
But they were then stunned and incredulous.
Fujimaru Ritsuka casually picked up a crimson flame from her hand and swirled it around her fingers: "The Tojo Clan must have known that they're here."
He interrupted the old man who was the leader of the East City Group, saying coldly, "I don't care what you do normally. Your greatest value is to provide us with eyes and convenience. If anyone encounters any strange events, report them immediately. If you neglect this..."
With a wave of his hand, the flames transformed into a streak of fiery sword energy, slashing a long chasm five meters in front of the East City Group members. The hard concrete and the bricks paving the way shattered with a single blow. Stone fragments and dust flew everywhere, striking the East City Group members.
They didn't dare to hide, but more often than not, their minds went blank, and they didn't think of hiding at all.
"You'll get a bonus for good deeds, and you'll be punished for big mistakes. Do your job well. That's all I wanted to say. You can go back now. If you need anything, contact our Chaldea administrator, Haruno." Fujimaru Ritsuka casually made up a title and attached it to Haruno's head before leading Yukino and Yui into the mansion without looking back.
Yang smiled and walked up to bow to the leader of the East City Group.
Ryuichiro Sakamoto returned the greeting with utmost courtesy: "Miss Yukinoshita, it's been a long time. You have excellent taste."
He was incredibly envious. Back in April, he had already tried to cultivate a relationship with Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others. However, things changed too quickly. In less than a month, they had transformed into an official, legitimate organization, taken over Chiba's territory, and even the political figures backing them had quickly retreated.
Logically speaking, even if that politician spoke up, he wouldn't intend to hand over his foundation so easily, but after hearing the name [Chaldea], he gave up the struggle.
Even if they could smuggle truckloads of Chinese Type 40 rifles from Russian arms dealers, would that be enough to take them out? Besides, they even met with members sent by the Special Affairs Bureau who showed off their strength.
It can't be penetrated by bullets, and a single rocket can easily evade it. Not only is its destructive power astonishing, but it also possesses cheat-like magic.
In this situation, Ryuichiro Sakamoto only regretted that he hadn't surrendered sooner or faster.
Seeing through Ryuichiro Sakamoto's restless heart, Yono laughed loudly: "Chief Sakamoto, you don't need to worry. We won't interfere too much with the Tojo Clan's daily operations. You just need to stop those inhumane businesses like ice jelly, reduce the impact on innocent citizens, and increase your intelligence gathering in the city."
The two foxes, one big and one small, began discussing the obligations and benefits of the Tojo Clan's subordinate relationship with Chaldea, while Fujimaru Ritsuka was wandering around her base inside the mansion.
"One word: smooth and moisturizing."
88. A fair-skinned young girl, and a thick, black firearm.
The so-called "run" is simply "run".
When Fujimaru Ritsuka entered the mansion, she felt that the space was so spacious that she could run around freely and without restraint, and it was perfectly capable of staging "The Blue Oni," "The Witch's House," and "Resident Evil" inside.
The mansion's exterior and interior decorations feature numerous intricate patterns, with a predominantly blue and white color scheme. Unlike other mansions that often use deep shades like red, this creates a less oppressive and more cheerful atmosphere. However, what truly captivated Fujimaru Ritsuka was the mansion's courtyard, which had been transformed into a closed training ground. A vast space had also been expanded and partitioned beneath the mansion, serving as storage for supplies and weapons. The ground floor also had three and a half stories, ample space for living quarters.
Upon reaching the top floor of the mansion, they found an observation deck specially constructed with one-way glass, offering panoramic views of the inland sea surrounding Chiba Port. Yukino and Yui were captivated by the beautiful seascape, feeling utterly refreshed.
"Hmm, this location isn't bad; it can be used as a sniping spot. However, the defenses aren't quite enough. I'll have Kasumigaoka come over and reinforce it with magic later. Also, add some traps to the connection between this observation deck and the interior of the mansion, so that any intruders can be caught in a trap. Hmm, adding some more traps seems like a good idea." Fujimaru Ritsuka stroked her chin, wandering around the approximately thirty-square-meter observation deck.
Yukino glanced speechlessly at the person who was rambling on and on, ruining the mood, while Yui Yuigahama was even more resentful—if they really added the traps, we wouldn't be able to enjoy the scenery in peace anymore.
"However, ordinary mechanisms don't seem to work. How about we get a batch of Love Elixir from Beimu Nishu? Then we can use spray mechanisms to spray them all out, and the enemy can be sprayed out too."
Seeing that the guy's ideas were getting more and more malicious, Yukino Yukinoshita quickly stopped him from thinking: "Forget it, if they can attack us so recklessly, these traps are not that useful. We might as well think of a way to set up some survival routes."
As they talked, Yukino became serious and began to think about ways to improve the security of the mansion base, engaging in a heated discussion with Fujimaru Ritsuka.
Yukino and Ato are talking about this like a couple discussing how to decorate their new home... But it's none of my business. At least we don't have to install weird things on the observation deck, and we don't have to worry about this or that when we come up to enjoy the view.
Yui looked at the sea view with delight, then rubbed her eyes. On the other side of the sea... it seemed like there were several large octopus-like things floating up.
Looking closer, not only were there thick, black tentacles rolling among the waves, but also a strange monk carrying a pipa slowly walking towards them.
She nudged Yukino, who was still engaged in a lively conversation: "Yukino, that over there, it can't be my imagination, right?"
Yukino and Fujimaru Ritsuka, whose conversation had been interrupted, paused for a moment, turned their heads to look, and then their expressions turned grim.
Fujimaru Ritsuka, in particular, immediately became angry.
For him, moving to a new house didn't need to be a big affair, and having a banquet wasn't really in line with the customs of this country. But to find a bunch of strange things right after moving in was just too unlucky.
Are you trying to mess with my house hunting? I'll beat the crap out of you!
He squinted, his hands itching.
However, the group of guys at sea was quite far from the shore, making it difficult for ordinary people to see them clearly. Moreover, judging from the direction, the place where they landed was some distance away from them.
If the mountain won't come to me, I will.
Fujimaru Ritsuka immediately dialed the phone number of Haruno, who was still talking in front of the mansion.
Upon seeing the caller ID, Yang was a little confused, but she still apologized to Sakamoto, who was on the other end of the conversation, and answered the phone: "Hello? Fujimaru-sama, what can I do for you?"
"Yono, I remember we used quite a few items on Kaiki Deishuu before. Is there anything that can lure out strange things?"
"Yes, there are. They seem to be Kibi dango or something, which can be used as an attractant." Yang Nai nodded after listening to Fujimaru Ritsuka's instructions on the phone. "Okay, I'll get them out now."
Ryuichiro Sakamoto stood by the side the whole time, and after Haruno hung up the phone, he respectfully asked, "Is there any heavy work that my son can help with?"
Yukinoshita hesitated for a moment, then asked them, "You've encountered strange creatures before, right? Do you dare to fight one again?"
The executives, led by Itohime Yuuma and Sohara Yuta, exchanged glances and replied with a smile to Haruno, "Actually, we've encountered something similar recently. If it weren't for the level of trouble we faced against Fujimaru-sama before, we could have managed to deal with it using firearms."
"Alright, a batch of firearms has also been brought into the basement. Follow me." Yang Nai led them into the basement.
Upstairs, Fujimaru Ritsuka was rubbing his hands together, ready to go down with Yukino and Yui and beat up the kids, when he witnessed an incredibly rare scene: Haruno, carrying a sniper rifle that looked like a Chey TacM200, was leading the way towards the shore, while several other yakuza members followed closely behind, carrying AK47s. The contrast between the beautiful girl and the cold weapons, with a group of yakuza bosses as a backdrop, was extremely amusing.
He saw Haruno walk to the shore, where two yakuza henchmen carrying boxes opened them and, under her guidance, assembled a device. At the same time, Fujimaru Ritsuka's phone notified him that he had received an email.
[Yang Nai: The new subordinates are in good spirits. I'll lead them in a battle to see how they perform. You guys can hold the line. Anyway, the weapons we got from the Special Affairs Bureau are free, so why not use them?]
After rubbing her temples, Fujimaru Ritsuka showed the email to Yukino and Yui, and the response she received was: "Then let her give it a try."
Yukino, isn't that your older sister? How can you bear to let her go?
Fujimaru Ritsuka, who actually preferred to personally inflict a miserable experience on those weirdos, found a good spot to sit down with the two girls. She also opened the floor-to-ceiling windows of the observation deck, so that even if something went wrong, they could deliver a powerful slash to the monsters as if justice had descended from the heavens.
Yang Nai glanced back at the observation deck, her tense nerves relaxing slightly: it really felt good to have someone backing you up.
She urged her assembling team to finish the device, then checked it herself and nodded in satisfaction.
Both the M200 sniper rifle and the stabilizing device on the ground were purchased with her own money. She simply wanted to test whether she, without spiritual power, could handle the strange beings.
With a bunch of support firepower around him, maybe he can wipe out the monsters on his own without Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others having to do anything?
Suppressing her anxiety, Yang entered a state of [split thinking], becoming rational and calm. She said to Wu Hu Yuzhen beside her, "Take out the dango and throw it towards the shore."
89. Who says that ordinary people can't kill weirdos with a gun?
The white, fluffy dumplings were crushed by rough, large hands and scattered into the sea.
Yang and the others were on a high cliff overlooking the sea near the mansion, with reefs and the sea below.
The crumbs of the dumpling were scattered into the sea, where they reacted subtly with the seawater, releasing a faint fragrance that was difficult for ordinary people to distinguish, which then spread with the ocean currents.
The octopus-like monster and the blind monk carrying a pipa in the distance stopped. The strange monk twitched his nose, as if he had smelled some delicious food.
Its pale eyes seemed to have discovered something, staring at Yang Nai's location from afar, drooling with longing.
With a sharp, eerie cry from the blind monk, the octopus monster lurking in the sea changed direction and rushed towards the location of Yang Nai on the sea cliff.
"They changed direction. That dumpling was really effective; it's no wonder it's a gadget from Chaldea." Yuuma Itto exclaimed in amazement while holding the binoculars, reminding Haruno.
"Understood." Yang Nai placed the M200 sniper rifle on the stabilizer.
The gloves she wore and the custom-made shoulder pads were Hohenheim brand items purchased from Bemuni-shu, designed to enhance arm strength and cushion reaction forces, allowing her, a woman who regularly exercises, to easily wield the weapon in her hand.
Taking out a bottle of dark blue potion and drinking it, Yang felt a cool sensation rush into her eyes. This potion, which combines a weak version of Eagle Eye and a calming spell, is a new creation by Kaiki Deishuu. Although it is far inferior to even the low-level E-rank skills of Servants, it is already a sufficient improvement for ordinary people.
Gripping the gun handle, Yang took a deep breath, discarding unnecessary emotions, closed one eye, and looked at the scope.
Several small black dots in the distance are moving toward you at an astonishing speed, cutting white lines into the sea.
5KM, 4KM, 3KM...
The monsters were already close to 2.5km away. Even without binoculars, their shapes could be vaguely seen with the naked eye. The burly men around them held their breath, not daring to disturb Yang Nai, and only occasionally wiping the sweat from their palms.
They naturally have reasons for their fear.
Since the beginning of May, they have encountered those strange creatures from time to time. When escape is impossible, or the gains are too great, they have no choice but to face them head-on, but even with their stockpiled weapons, they have suffered heavy casualties. Strange, light-like protective shields always appear on those monsters, blocking attacks from modern weapons.
Yang Nai naturally understood this as well, but she also knew that saturated firepower could break through that layer of magical protection.
[Segmented thinking], with shooting as the objective, operate at full speed!
The ability, which had already developed into five thought circuits, was activated by Yang Nai with all her might.
Wind direction, humidity, the opponent's movement trajectory, data from the sniper rifle's built-in computing system, physical characteristics and heartbeat—all of these were being calculated at full speed by the five thought circuits. Yang Nai grasped the rapidly processing data, and in the next breath interval, she pulled the trigger.
Some people ask, what qualities does a genius sniper need? Yang Nai once heard some foreign instructors hired by the Special Affairs Bureau talk about it: patience and intuition.
Putting aside the fact that these guys might just be talking nonsense, Yang Nai, who used to practice shooting diligently, discovered a little secret: she could use [segmented thinking] to process the data in her body, and then combine it with the data captured by her senses. After integrating and operating it in high-speed thinking, she could achieve something similar to a sharpshooter.
Now is the time to showcase our achievements.
The .408 bullet, traveling 2.2km away, maintained supersonic speed due to its unique shape and slammed into the massive blind monk's... external magical protection.
Like a sudden, devastating blow, the blind monk, Hai Tou Zuo, staggered back a few steps. He stared blankly at the bullet, which had been compressed into a pancake shape and was slowly sliding down outside the magic shield, feeling somewhat confused—where did the attack come from?
Before the strange sea-headed figure could react, Yang had already pulled back the bolt and reloaded the gun after firing the previous shot.
bang.
In less than 3 seconds, Seahead was hit hard again. This time it was different. The bullet compressed the moment it hit the magic protection and then exploded into a huge flame.
"Observer!"
"Here!" Itohori Yuuma picked up his military binoculars and looked closely. "Miss Haruno, it seems like she's injured over there! But the injury isn't too serious."
Tsk, only a minor injury?
Yang said that whether it's the strange magic protection or the magic protection of the superhumans, it's all a bug. Physical attacks without magic will be nerfed and can only use saturation attacks.
But today, she's going to try using beyond-visual-range attacks to see if she can take down the physical anomaly—even though the second shot was a hand-enchanted bullet.
