Use FGO to open the second dimension

"Master, what's wrong? Do you think there's something wrong with the Journey to the West monster?"

Reimu glanced at the Saigoyoyou briefly, but didn't feel much. After all, she was a shrine maiden, and she had a certain resistance to this kind of temptation of death. What's more, Reimu in this state was her strongest.

"I always feel that this incident is related to the Journey to the West monster. Reimu, what do you think?"

As Koizumi said this, he glanced at Reimu beside him. After all, he had solved so many anomalies, so Reimu should have her own opinions on the matter of singularities.

Reimu nodded silently, with a hint of solemnity in her eyes. She had the same idea.

"According to previous inferences, the death energy explosion and ghost movements at this singularity are undoubtedly closely related to the Journey to the West Demon and Hell. The Journey to the West Demon is right before our eyes, and on the surface, nothing seems to be happening. However, the power of the death energy is somewhat similar to that of the Journey to the West Demon, which is very strange... So this incident must be related to the Journey to the West Demon, but... I think we need to go to another place to investigate."

Having said that, Reimu paused for a moment, but what she was going to say next was already very obvious.

"Hell... can we even reach that kind of place on foot? Without some other means?"

Koizumi looked at Reimu with curiosity. To be honest, this was his first time in a place like hell.

Reimu nodded, a gleam in her eyes.

"When I was in Gensokyo, I also went to Hell. But I'm not sure where the Hell of this era is. I vaguely remember that the old capital of the underground world was also called Old Hell. It seems that because Hell was too large, it was in financial difficulties. In order to cut costs, Hell was lightweighted and abandoned and moved to another place. That is the Hell of Gensokyo later."

Having said that, Reimu pondered for a moment, a look of distress on her face.

"By the way, is the current hell still in the old hell, or has it moved?"

Reimu's words left Koizumi speechless. He felt that the hell Reimu was talking about was not the kind of place where the dead gathered as he had imagined, but rather a place where a bunch of office workers worked!

Why does this feeling give me a sense of déjà vu of a modern office worker?

The corners of Koizumi's mouth twitched violently, and he suddenly didn't know where to start complaining.

Reimu glanced at Koizumi briefly, then rolled her eyes. How could she not know what Koizumi was thinking?

"Don't overthink it. Hell is where the guys from the Department of Right and Wrong work. It's really no different from your modern office workers. Otherwise, what do you think the gods of the Age of Gods are like?"

"To put it bluntly, they are all guys who use divine power to go to work, especially the gods of Japan. They rely on the power of faith to exist. Their way of existence is different from the gods of other countries, so the color of modern working people will be a little stronger." When she said this, Reimu also had some complaints in her tone.

The corner of Gu Quan's mouth twitched fiercely. "Having said this, I don't know what else to complain about."

Chapter 353 Preparation

"What? You want to go to hell? Although I'm not happy about it, it's okay for me to escort you there."

When talking about hell, Reimu sighed deeply as if she had thought of something that was giving her a headache.

It was rare to see Reimu show this kind of expression, as if she was very interested. Koizumi's mouth corners curled up slightly.

"What's wrong? Is there something in Hell? Or is there someone you can't handle?"

Upon hearing this, Lingmeng's cheeks suddenly froze. The next moment, she silently closed her eyes and just shook her head without saying a word.

There's no need to say it out loud. Koizumi will get to know the other person later anyway, so there's no need to reveal everything.

In fact, Reimu also had some small expectations in her heart. She was looking forward to the scene where someone was scolded by that Yama.

This is also a little bit of evil in Reimu's heart. Sometimes when she is unhappy, she has to seek happiness from the pain of others. Besides, it's just a scolding. Koizumi has experienced such difficult times. This little setback is no problem at all. At most, it will make you doubt your life for a while.

"Nothing, you'll know when you see her. No need for me to talk nonsense here..."

Reimu turned her head silently and did not continue the topic. Instead, she looked at Youyouko.

"Koizumi-kun, what were you talking about? And did anyone come just now? I heard a lot of noise outside."

Yuyuko looked at Koizumi with curiosity, which made Koizumi, who had originally intended to hide the truth, suddenly at a loss for words.

I originally didn't plan to let Youyouzi know about this. After all, with Youyouzi's kindness, she would definitely choose to seal the Westward Journey Demon.

But the key is, this incident doesn't necessarily stem from your Journey to the West monster. What if it wasn't, wouldn't your death have been in vain? If possible, Koizumi wouldn't tell the other party. However, with the other party looking at me like this, I'd feel incredibly guilty if I kept it a secret... Koizumi silently complained.

Reimu glanced at Koizumi, sighed slightly inwardly, and then spoke slowly.

"It was the magical monk from the Saigyouji family. He seemed to be trying to persuade you to seal the Saigyou demon with your own life, but he was scared away by Koizumi!" Reimu thought there was no point in hiding it. After all, it was inevitable that Youyouko would seal the Saigyou demon.

What this group of people did could only delay this time for a while.

In the end, with Youyouzi's personality, she would not sit idly by and watch the affairs of the Journey to the West monster.

The Saigyo monsters were originally under the care of the Saigyoji family, so Youyouzi would naturally take all the responsibility on herself.

However, Koizumi and Reimu believe that Yuyuko is also a victim. She was born with this burden on her shoulders and is really...

Hearing this, Youyouzi was slightly stunned, followed by a period of silence. She also knew why those people did this.

Youyouzi knew very well that sooner or later she would die at the hands of the Journey to the West demon, this was destined.

If it were her old self, she might still feel very regretful, but now that she has met her friends, she has no regrets. She is just worried that her death will make her friends sad, so she is a little conflicted at the moment.

"I see. I understand. Although I don't know if the incidents involving the Westward Journey Demon are related to the deathly aura that shrouds Kyoto, I will be prepared. If the Westward Journey Demon really goes berserk, I will immediately seal it away!"

As she spoke, Youyouzi's tone became deeper, which made Koizumi feel dissatisfied.

Reimu told you the truth not because I wanted you to seal the Westward Journey Demon. Didn't you hear that I had already driven those guys away?

Even Reimu showed a helpless look, as if I had done something wrong.

I'm not telling you this to risk your life to seal the Westward Journey Demon. I'm just asking you to be prepared. Those guys might come looking for you again. Now it seems that you've misunderstood what I meant.

Reimu sighed slightly. Sometimes being misunderstood by others can be a very troublesome thing.

Koizumi's right hand slapped Youyouko's little head, causing her to cover her head with her hands, her face full of grievance. Well, to be honest, if it was the undead Youyouko, she probably wouldn't show such an expression.

Didn’t you see that even Marisa was looking at Yuyuko with a speechless look at this moment?

"Koizumi-kun is bullying me... I don't think I've done anything wrong..."

A look of dissatisfaction appeared on Youyouzi's face as she looked at Koizumi in front of her.

Gu Quan gave a bitter laugh. It was obviously you who was imagining things. I told you not to let your imagination run wild, and you think you're right?

"Don't keep talking about seals. You can't die before I tell you to! There might be other ways. Besides, this deathly aura enveloping Kyoto may not have anything to do with you. Don't think about it!"

Having said that, Gu Quan paused for a moment, his gaze fixed on the Westward Journey Demon in front of him.

"Tomorrow Reimu and I will go to hell and take a look. Maybe this deathly aura has something to do with hell."

As if frightened by Koizumi's words, Marisa suddenly trembled, causing the others to be slightly startled.

Koizumi, in particular, was actually very curious as to why Reimu's face froze when the word hell was mentioned.

Could this be a human fear of hell? That's unlikely, right? What would those people in Gensokyo fear?

"Master, you want to go to hell? How about this, let Reimu go with you, and I will be responsible for protecting Saki here. You can rest assured and leave Saki to me, Kirisame Marisa!"

As if afraid of being too late, Marisa patted her chest, which didn't have much to offer to begin with, and spoke quickly.

Koizumi looked at Marisa speechlessly, while Reimu twitched the corner of her mouth fiercely. With her head full of confusion, she grabbed Marisa's collar and rubbed her temples frantically under Marisa's horrified gaze.

"You ungrateful fellow, don't even think about leaving me alone to face that nagging Yingji! How could you possibly succeed in leaving me there to let her nag to her heart's content while you slip away on your own!!!"

“It hurts! It ...

Reimu's standard definition seemed to be possessed by a ghost, completely ignoring Marisa's wailing and just continued to abuse her.

Forget it, it’s better not to bother with them, but having said that, I heard a familiar name.

Yingji... Looks like she's from Gensokyo again, but strictly speaking, hell doesn't belong to Gensokyo.

Perhaps it's just that the other party frequently goes in and out of Gensokyo, and the outside world no longer believes in the existence of ghosts and gods, so there should be no need for that person named Yingji to go in and out of the outside world. It should be said that it is dangerous for the other party to come to the outside world.

After all, in the outside world, even Yama doesn’t have much so-called faith.

Chapter 354 Instructions in the Dark

This is a place filled with extremely strong power of death. If Reimu were here, she would definitely be able to feel it. The power of death here is exactly the same as the power of death in Youyouko's body, and it is even much stronger.

Looking closely, a cherry tree that blocks out the sun comes into view. The pink cherry blossoms are blooming in this dark place, giving people an extremely strange feeling. However, at the edge of this pink cherry tree, there are twinkling lights.

As you walk closer, you can vaguely feel a strange atmosphere around this cherry tree.

Suddenly, a petite figure suddenly appeared under the cherry tree. Looking closely, it was Konpaku Youmu who had fought with Miyamoto Musashi before. Her half-soul was still floating around her body.

The girl's face was full of respect, and she squatted silently beside the cherry tree, as if waiting for something.

"It's really a headache. Whoever sealed the Journey to the West monster so thoroughly must be really powerful."

A lazy voice suddenly came out, which made people feel surprised. There was obviously no one around, but a figure suddenly appeared. Looking around carefully, there was indeed no other figure in the darkness.

Konpaku Youmu was not surprised at all. She just squatted on the ground silently, as if she had heard nothing.

"But it's not reasonable to not have such ability. It seems that we have to let that little girl go to hell and see for ourselves."

"By the way! Youmu, how's the surveillance of the foreign guest I asked you and Caster to monitor going?"

Suddenly, he asked Youmeng, but Youmeng still didn't raise her head, but just lowered her head and spoke slowly.

"They have been staying inside Shengji Temple and haven't come out yet, but they seem to be planning to go to hell..."

The voice was very calm, but within the calmness there was a strong sense of respect. It was obvious that Youmu respected the other party very much.

However, when mentioning "them", a hint of guilt flashed across Youmu's face for a moment.

"Really? After all, they're going to Hell. After all, Hakurei's miko is there. If it were anyone else, they probably wouldn't think of going to Hell so quickly. But it makes sense. Some of the strange things happening outside make it hard not to think that something is wrong with Hell."

Countless undead spirits are wreaking havoc on the human world. If it's not that there's something wrong with Hell, then there must be something fishy going on. Since the Saigyou demon isn't in big trouble, then the only thing left is Hell. Hakurei Reimu knows the locations of Gensokyo's Hell and the Old Hell, so she will naturally take Koizumi to take a look at both places. However, the place they are likely to go to is the Old Hell.

"Youmu, go stop them. You and Caster, come with me. I won't let them even reach Youkai Mountain!"

By the way, the old hell is behind the Monster Mountain. There is a valley behind the Monster Mountain. There is a layer of restriction there. Behind the restriction, it can be said to be another world. After passing through the necessary path called the Bardo Path, you will reach the Sanzu River. So, if you want to go to hell, you have to pass through the Monster Mountain.

The tone of the voice was so firm that the girl's body suddenly stiffened, but it was only for a moment.

This was her master's order. Even if it meant becoming an enemy of her future master, she would not hesitate at all.

She only knew that if she didn't fight for her master here until the last moment, she would definitely regret it in the end.

"Yes! I won't let them reach Youkai Mountain... I'll bet my life on it!"

Youmu's tone was very heavy, as if she was determined to succeed or die, but -

"Oh, oh, Youmu, there's no need to use such a heavy tone. Your life is more important... You are Youki's granddaughter, although..." At this point, the voice had a teasing tone.

Youmeng was slightly startled, then she smiled gently. Sure enough, no matter what, the other party was still the person she knew, but perhaps because of different experiences, there were some slight differences in personality.

"Please rest assured, I will never die so easily before seeing your long-cherished wish come true."

Having said this, Konpaku Youmu's figure disappeared in this space. Considering Konpaku Youmu's speed, it was normal for her to be able to do this. Her speed burst out in an instant in the limited space and was close to space transfer.

After Youmeng left, the space returned to silence again, but only for a moment.

"It's really hard for Youmu, this kid, to keep me here fooling around for so long...but..."

"If possible, I hope my long-cherished wish can be perfectly realized... In this way... everything will be possible..."

The next moment, an inexplicable aura suddenly came around the Journey to the West Demon. It could be felt that the concentration of the surrounding death aura suddenly doubled. As if affected by this force, the flickering light around the Journey to the West Demon also faded.

"Huh!" The voice seemed to be very surprised by this as well, and it was filled with deep surprise.

"It looks like you've killed quite a few people... Maybe it has something to do with the environment you're in. After all, places like Hell are full of evil spirits, and many people have died in this era... It's truly terrifying... This aura..."

After this voice was heard, a petite figure slowly appeared. It was a young girl with short gray hair. Although she did not have any weapons in her hands, the sense of oppression she gave people was extremely strong.

The little girl glanced at the Journey to the West demon, without any expression on her face.

"Have you resolved the matter I asked you to go to hell for? Although I have a rough guess, I still want to ask..."

The little girl's face showed no emotion at all. She just glanced at the Journey to the West Demon silently without saying a word.

But even so, the owner of this voice actually saw through it completely.

"I see. You don't have a chance and you're worried about disturbing the other gods of Hell? That makes sense, after all. After all, that girl isn't seeing anyone right now. Even the ferryman, the Death God who's close to her, probably doesn't know where she's been... And there's a chance that trespassing into Hell might alert that extraordinary being. It's normal for you to be so cautious..."

The gray-haired girl just silently glanced at the Journey to the West monster in front of her, still expressionless and saying nothing.

"In that case, then... follow Youmu. Youmu's enemies are also aiming for Hell. Youmu is very powerful. With the support of the Holy Grail, she won't have to worry about facing top-level servants. However, there are still variables. If Youmu and Caster can't defeat them, you should follow them into Hell. I believe they will meet that guy."

"After they leave, take that guy..."

The gray-haired girl nodded silently, and the next moment, she disappeared into the dark space in an instant.

Chapter 355 Attacked

"Marisa is really not going to go to hell with us... I understand that though."

Reimu couldn't help but curl her lips, her face full of helplessness. Although Shiki Eihime was indeed difficult to deal with, after all, that guy's preaching ability was one of the best, and even Yakumo Yukari would find it extremely troublesome, but if Marisa went with her, she would be protected along the way. After all, it always felt a little inadequate to protect Koizumi by herself.

It would be terrible if I met some servant who started fighting with me without any explanation along the way.

Although Koizumi's combat effectiveness has greatly improved, this does not mean that he can completely relax.
