"..."
"…Why are you always looking at me?"
In order to maintain his dignity as a senior, Lizhi had to let Yuhuan take the initiative to find her beloved Saint, and after leaving a sentence of "She's fine, I can handle it myself", he decisively cut off the contact. The eyes of the people who followed him instantly fell on Yanshi. Under the gazes of so many people, Yanshi scratched his head in confusion, and then saw everyone sighing and looking away.
As expected, like subordinates, like bosses you will have!
They are all not normal people!
"Wait, what are those looks like?"
Being looked at in such a way, Yanshi immediately showed an unhappy expression. However, what made him sad was that Yanshi's expression, let alone Xiaohei and others, even Kuanglong seemed to have no intention of paying any attention to him. Instead, after a moment of silence, he began to discuss the ownership of the soul-eating ghost on the ground.
"So... are you planning to wait for Xiao Huan to come out before taking this soul-eating ghost away, or what else do you plan to do?"
Even though the Saint had said Xiao Huan would be fine, it was clear that everyone wasn't going to let Yan Shi take the Soul Eater away. Especially after learning that the Saint had such intentions towards Yu Huan, if they really let her take the Soul Eater away, it would be like skinning Xiao Huan, roasting him like a rabbit, and sending him to a hungry wolf. Would they even be able to get him back?!
So even though they said such words, in fact, Xiao Hei and the others' intention to save the Soul-Eating Ghost was obvious, and in such a situation, Kuang Long immediately frowned slightly.
Although Her Majesty the Saint is reserved, her behavior just now shows that she values this 'Little Fantasy' Loli very much. Although she keeps saying that it's okay, having followed Her Majesty the Saint for so long, Kuanglong can obviously hear the hint of worry in Her Majesty the Saint's tone. Therefore, instead of being helpless here, Kuanglong actually prefers to take the Soul-Eating Ghost back and let Her Majesty the Saint think of a solution.
However, Kuanglong was not a talkative person, and the leader of this team was actually Yanshi, so she immediately looked in the direction of Yanshi... Yanshi, who had followed Her Majesty the Saint for a longer time, obviously knew much more about Her Majesty the Saint than she did, and should be able to make the right choice at this time... right!
"Hahaha, it's okay, it's okay. Since Xiao Huan is still inside, then we don't need this soul-eating ghost. After all, isn't her safety important? I don't think the Saint Lady will care about a mere soul-eating ghost~~"
"..."
I take back what I said before. It would be wishful thinking to expect such an idiot to understand the Saint Lady's painstaking efforts!
"In that case...thank you!"
Since the Flame Lion had retreated so much, Xiao Hei was obviously not the kind of person who would push for more. She nodded as a token of thanks, and then, as if she had thought of something, she suddenly looked towards the direction of the ruins behind her and said:
"By the way, that soul mask...do you need help?"
Since the other party had been giving in so repeatedly, and because of the relationship with the 'Ranger', Xiao Hei obviously no longer regarded the other party as an enemy, so she asked this question immediately.
It is obvious that Hunmian has become an enemy of Yuhuan, and he also seems to be quite hostile to the Saint. Therefore, no matter from what perspective, Xiao Hei will obviously not let him go, and handing him over to the Saint is obviously a good idea.
"Ah? Um... no need to worry, my boss has already gone after them!"
Yanshi immediately waved his hand and said so. The so-called boss naturally did not refer to the Saint Lady in the communication, but another person who came here for the same mission. The other party’s goal itself was to eliminate Guimian, so naturally he would not be here to reminisce with Xiaohei and others like Yanshi did. So he had chased Guimian as soon as he escaped, and now no one knew where he had flown to.
"That's it..."
Since Yanshi said so, Xiaohei naturally didn't say anything more, and the two sides didn't say anything more. After all, they were not acquaintances, so after a moment of silence, Yanshi finally chose to leave first.
After all, the soul-eating ghost in the mission has been given to Xiao Hei and the others, and their Lord Bingmian has also gone to chase the escaped Ghost Mian, so the two of them are obviously fine; plus, Tianta City itself is not their territory, and the people of the Jing Organization here are like rats crossing the street, and everyone wants to kill them, so if it is not necessary, they actually don't want to stay for too long.
After saying goodbye, Flame Lion and Mad Dragon left immediately. Xiao Hei and the others discussed it briefly and finally decided to return to the inn first. Of course, they didn't forget to take the still-sleeping Soul-Eating Ghost with them. As for the problem of the city that had been reduced to ruins before them... that was Tianta City's problem, what did it have to do with them...
No, it seems that they are related. After saving Tianta City, they need to take revenge. After all, they are not saviors who do good deeds without leaving a name!
……
"Master, aren't you worried?"
After hanging up the phone, the system looked at the girl who was lying on the bed again but suddenly frowned. She immediately floated out of the space and knelt beside her and asked.
"Worry!"
The saint's answer was obviously beyond her expectations. After all, she really couldn't see any worry in the other person's expression at that moment.
"But since I'm not going to die anyway, it's not a bad thing to practice more!"
After all, jade cannot be made into a useful object without being polished. Although she did want to take this junior into her harem or something, it was obvious that she did not just want him to be a vase. After all, the guardian of the world... was not something that the weak could hold!
"...So rather than worrying, I'm actually more curious about something else!"
"whats the matter?"
Seeing its master's slightly frowned brow, the system immediately asked curiously.
"That junior...what's his name?"
From the first time the Mirror Organization came into contact with the other party and the first time she noticed the other party's existence, the Saint had actually developed a strong curiosity about the other party. However, since they were enemies, she could not get much information about the other party. In addition, the other party had also "traveled" like herself, and it seemed that the time of travel was not long, so it was obviously impossible to investigate anything in the past.
Of course, the most important thing is...
"That idiot Yanshi hasn't even thought of taking a photo of his junior for me yet. Just describing what he looks like is useless. He can't even think of someone by looking at their belongings, bastard!"
Not only the photo, but also the name... This idiot and that idiot with Ghost Face are still so smart that they mistakenly think that other people's real names are 'Yuuki Yuna' or something like that... They have holes in their brains!
How blind was I to have found such a group of unreliable subordinates?
Ah~~ No, my head hurts when I think about this. I want to find a world to destroy... No, I want to save it. Calm down!
19. On the dietary issues of cannibals
(I have forgotten what mood I was in when I wrote this chapter!)
While a certain saint was still struggling with Yu Huan's name, Yu Huan, the one being missed, had already escaped from the dark belly of the soul-eating ghost full of resentful souls at some point, and came to an unfamiliar place: how to say it... a slaughterhouse?
Of course, if it were just that, it would be fine. However, what is truly terrifying is that what is being slaughtered in this slaughterhouse at this moment is obviously not livestock or exotic beasts, but human beings!
The piles of limbs and remains were thrown on the ground at random, some of them still flowing with fresh blood, while others seemed to have been torn by something, leaving behind bloody wounds; hundreds of chests of men and women without limbs were hung on a wire like bacon, standing side by side, and the blood on them had long covered the originally naked spring scenery. It looked not only without any ambiguity, but full of horror.
"Crunch~~Crunch~~"
That was the sound of a huge blunt knife cutting bones. Following the sound, one could see dozens of ugly monsters walking back and forth beside a small kitchen counter. Some of them were holding long knives and chopping corpses that had been dismembered into countless pieces, while others were throwing the chopped meat into the frying pan in front of them.
"Wow~~This smell..."
He subconsciously covered his nose as the unpleasant smell and nausea spread all around him. The moment Yu Huan arrived here, he saw a string of fried meat skewers being taken out of the wok. Because he used too much force, a few drops of hot oil dripped onto his feet.
"So to sum up, have I come to the African cannibal tribe?"
Honestly, looking at this scene, let alone a child like Yu Huan, even an adult would be terrified and fall to the ground, on the one hand frightened and on the other hand vomiting directly. However, at this moment, Yu Huan looked at the slaughterhouse-like environment in front of him very calmly, and even gave an interesting comment:
"I always thought the legendary cannibals ate food raw, or at least grilled it. I didn't expect there's fried food here. This is really... quite advanced~~"
There was absolutely no feeling of discomfort. It was as if everything in front of Yu Huan was like walking into a restaurant's kitchen, watching a group of chefs turning some ingredients into dishes. Apart from rejecting the idea of going forward to taste them, Yu Huan did not feel like he was pretending at all, as if he was simply indifferent to everything in front of him.
And in fact, this is indeed the case, because when Yu Yuan, as a system, closed the visual sharing with Yu Huan and asked this question, Yu Huan immediately gave the following answer:
"Ah~~ Well, actually, because I was often hospitalized in my previous life, most of my friends are doctors... well, there are a lot of different kinds!"
It's not just his own attending physician. For Yu Huan, a child who has almost never been exposed to the outside world, the only way to satisfy his curiosity is to hear from others. And what can you hear from those doctors in a place like a hospital?
Surgeries, autopsies, mortuary legends, and all sorts of ghost stories mixed with personal experiences or just designed to scare people.
Because of this, Yu Huan had visited morgues with doctors quite often since he was a child. He even went with a newly-acquainted forensic doctor to watch the autopsy process on site several times. Although he vomited all over the place the first time, he got used to it after seeing it so many times!
Although after that, the forensic doctor was said to have been designated as a 'no entry for XX and dogs' by his parents because he had secretly taken himself out to see the corpse, and he was even chased by his sister with a kitchen knife all over the three-story building... well, three-story hospital building, but it was obvious that Yu Huan had a very good impression of him!
After recalling the above, Yu Huan suddenly revealed a nostalgic smile, and even the look in his eyes as he looked at the corpse in front of him seemed to have a hint of warmth.
"...Sister, let's quickly go find Sister Xiaoxiao's soul. She'll be in danger in a place like this!"
This is not good... He suddenly felt that his master seemed to have entered a very terrifying state of attribute awakening. In order to prevent his pure master sister from becoming a pervert, Yu Yuan immediately used a trick to change the subject and pulled Yu Huan back to reality.
"Yeah, that's right. Now it's important to find Xiaoxiao!"
Fortunately, her sister hadn't forgotten the purpose of coming here, so Yu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief at her immediate response, and then...
"Once we find Xiaoxiao, we'll bring her over to see it. It seems quite interesting... cannibal cuisine and all!"
No, it's meaningless, not at all. Sister, are you here to save people or to harm them? Bringing a little girl to watch a murder cooking scene, her first reaction will probably be that you are actually here to eat for free, or bring your own ingredients, right?
Yes, that’s right, she is the ingredient!
In the end, Yu Yuan, who had nothing to say, chose to remain silent. Yu Huan, who remembered his purpose, decisively ignored the scenes around him that were extremely terrifying to ordinary people, and then walked towards the slaughterhouse in front of him.
Yu Yuan's purpose is to sign a contract with Xiaoxiao. According to Yu Yuan's inference, given Xiaoxiao's current soul state, if the contract is successful, then not only can she be saved, but it is even very likely that she can be directly matched with the spirit rider's armor. At the very least, Xiaoxiao can use the soul gem in front of her as a carrier to directly sign a contract with the Kyubey summoning card (one-time) in Yu Huan's hand and become a magical girl or something.
However, before this, there was a clear problem: how to sign a contract with Xiaoxiao, who had fallen into a deep sleep within the Soul Gem, even her soul in a chaotic state? After all, a contract required the consent of both parties. Therefore, after much deliberation, Yu Huan followed Yu Yuan's instructions and decisively dispersed his consciousness and then directly entered the Soul Gem.
Objective: Find and rescue Qi Xiao, then sign a contract with her to make her a Ranger!
20.The Queen
Because these soul fragments were all killed by the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons, and according to what Ghost Face once said, it is obvious that in order to complete the Ten Thousand Demons Soul Devouring Formation, all the living souls implicated in the sacrifice must have died with immense fear in order to give birth to a powerful resentful soul force. Therefore, these horrific scenes will always appear in the consciousness of the hodgepodge of soul fragments in this soul gem, because this is the last picture before their death!
He walked into the slaughterhouse, passed by the dismemberment maniac, and then saw with his own eyes a girl being ruthlessly torn into pieces and then eaten by zombies in the apocalypse. Then the scene turned to the sea surface, and vaguely visible were countless tentacles emerging from the bright red sea water under his feet, tearing a young man into the water bit by bit, and eventually drowning him.
All the death scenes flashed past Yu Huan's eyes like passing clouds as she walked, but this did not cause her even the slightest harm. This seemed to have angered the illusions around her. As Yu Huan continued to go deeper, more and more horrific illusions began to appear one by one, from one after another at the beginning to several horrific scenes appearing at the same time later, and then simply smashed in front of Yu Huan like a hodgepodge.
However, Yu Huan was completely... indifferent!
'Sister, aren't you afraid?'
They walked for nearly half an hour, and looking at Yu Huan's expressionless face, Yu Yuan couldn't help but ask out of curiosity... In half an hour, Yu Huan had no idea how far she had walked, and she knew that there were at least hundreds of death scenes encountered along the way, even without deliberately counting them. However, so many scenes did not have the slightest effect on Yu Huan. Yu Yuan was obviously impressed and curious by his sister's determination.
The master’s heart is so strong!
"Hmm? Ah! Is it over?"
As if she felt what Yu Yuan said to her, Yu Huan suddenly blinked and asked this while walking. Then she was seen slowly taking out a pair of... earplugs from her ears?
Then he took off the virtual glasses and looked at the light screen in front of him.
The earplugs can block out noise, while the virtual glasses can modify or hide things that Yu Huan doesn't want to see according to his thoughts. It is obvious that Yu Huan was using these two things to ignore the horrific scenes around him... No, it should be said that he didn't hear or see anything at all. It was not until he heard Yu Yuan's voice that he suddenly raised his head, and then he was suddenly met with a pair of big eyes like copper bells.
"Ugh?"
It was a Tyrannosaurus Rex... The unfortunate deceased didn't know what was most terrifying about being swallowed by the Tyrannosaurus Rex. Therefore, when Yu Huan realized that there was a Tyrannosaurus Rex in front of her, the other party had already opened its big mouth and bit her without hesitation.
Then three minutes later...
"Can this thing be exchanged for spirit coins? Yuanyuan!"
With one foot on the head of the Tyrannosaurus Rex, whose life or death was unknown, Yu Huan looked at the light curtain beside him and asked.
"I'm sorry, Master. Putting aside the fact that this is just a world of soul illusions, these things are simply imaginary, so there's no energy to extract. Even if it were possible, they wouldn't be exotic beasts but ordinary beasts, so the spiritual coins you can get are actually not that much!"
"Really? What a pity..."
He sighed with some regret. Since he couldn't sell it, it was obvious that Yu Huan didn't pay any attention to the Tyrannosaurus Rex. He immediately turned around and planned to continue walking in a certain direction according to the feeling in his heart.
Xiaoxiao is there... Although there is no evidence, Yu Huan inexplicably confirmed this, which is why he kept running in one direction without stopping.
Finally, after going through numerous dangers and wandering for a full hour, Yu Huan finally found Qi Xiao who was trapped in this space. Although the unknown existence in control of this space tried its best to obstruct him, it was obvious that it had no way to deal with this guy who didn't know what fear was. Therefore, although various illusions continued to appear, they obviously had no effect on Yu Huan.
And that's how it happened. The hero went through numerous hardships and obstacles (where were the hardships and obstacles?) and finally broke through the siege (so where were the siege?) and came to the princess, saving her from pain... In this perfect script, if there is only one difference, it is the treatment of Her Highness the Princess (Qi Xiao) at this moment!
"Your Majesty, please use it!"
The cooked food, mixed with fresh blood, was placed on glass tableware and brought to the highest point of the golden throne. The queen sat there in a dress that was exaggerated and totally incompatible with her lolita figure. In one hand, she held a scepter that was priceless just by looking at it. With the other hand, she arrogantly tapped the head of the giant monster in front of her, clearly scolding it.
"I've told you countless times that I don't eat human flesh. Can't you just find some normal meat to send over?"
Having said this, Qi Xiao angrily nodded at the 'drink' in front of him:
"Also, I'm a queen, not a vampire queen. I wouldn't blame you if you even got some tap water. Are you trying to disgust me by making a pool of blood? Don't you know that I'm also human?!"
Without saying a word, she would poke the forehead of the monster in front of her. As Qi Xiao continued to poke the other party, this huge monster, which could have crushed Qi Xiao to death with one hand, not only did not resist at all, but instead lowered its head like a wronged child, and finally lowered it lower and lower, almost crawling into the water. However, despite this, she still explained diligently:
"Uh...but, Your Majesty, here...there's only human flesh and blood!"
After all, this place is a slaughterhouse designed to intimidate humans. How could there be anything belonging to normal people here?
"You guys can't go look for it if there's nothing there, right? There must be something different in the memories of so many resentful souls. Go and look carefully to see if there are any 'normal' memories. Bring them over and make something delicious. Otherwise, what use would you have for me?"
"Uh... yes, Your Majesty!"
The monster finally nodded after being scolded, and then took the order. Yu Huan, who had been staring at everything since entering the huge hall, stood there in amazement for a long time, and then turned around without saying a word and walked outside.
"I feel like...she seems to be doing well. It seems like she doesn't need to be rescued!"
'...feel the same! '
"Hey? Xiao Huan? Come and save me!"
However, just when Yu Huan was about to leave, the excited shouts from behind and the sudden small weight on his back decisively interrupted Yu Huan's thoughts of leaving, and turned him into a deep speechless expression!
Girl, you have turned all the monsters in this space into your minions. Where on earth do you need us to save?
21. Eh? Aren’t you proposing?
"Let me summarize your point..."
That was about ten minutes after Yu Huan arrived at this hall. When Qi Xiao, who had finally calmed down, slowly recounted what he had seen and heard in this space, Yu Huan immediately looked at Qi Xiao, who was nodding with a bright smile, with a strange expression on his face, and said:
