Kill them in Cyberman!

Now, the Japanese government is in chaos, because most of human weapons cannot hurt these monsters even a little bit. The current situation is definitely not something that these ordinary people who are usually high and mighty can control.
The benefits that the priests had originally promised them were definitely not like this. You have to know that in order to gain benefits, these guys who were elected by the people and were supposed to protect their own people had already abandoned those thousands of people long ago and allowed the priests to use these people as sacrifices for sacrifices.
Only a dozen minutes had passed since the spiritual disaster broke out, and those seemingly endless "ghosts" had completely destroyed the social order of Amaterasu Shrine and its surrounding areas, and were rapidly spreading to the entire Xinjing.
"Miss, the remaining energy of the stand can last for at most twenty minutes."
Hayasaka Ai kept an eye on the readings on the machine screens around her.
"Are you ready?"
Shinomiya Kaguya also explained the current situation to Pochi, and only she could stop what was happening.
"If you want to protect your other companions, then you must do this, understand?"
Pochi nodded. She had already understood the seriousness of the situation and was now extremely anxious. You know, Yamada Ryo and Kita Ikuyo were now in a hospital not far from Amaterasu Shrine.
"very good……"
Shinomiya Kaguya nodded. Now she could only rely on Pochi.
"Love."
Hayasaka Ai takes a bracelet from the machine and puts it on Pochi.
"When you enter 'Yellow Springs', be sure to find the overflow point of the psychic energy flow, and then use the Amaterasu psychic energy bottle on your waist. When resonance occurs, activate this bracelet, and then you can direct the psychic energy to the diffusion device of the machine."
Hearing Hayasaka Ai's tone as if she was explaining her final affairs, Pochi felt extremely nervous. Don't other special effects heroes start by killing monsters and leveling up? Why is it that for him, the level is in hell right from the start?
Of course, there was no time for Pochi to complain about these things now, she had to seize every minute and every second.
The ancients often called the world after death Huangquan. Although this should be related to some natural phenomena when digging graves, it does not prevent us from using this word to describe the current situation.
If the flow of psychic energy is compared to a stream of water, then the current explosion of psychic energy in Xinjing can be seen as a fountain. This stream of water from the non-material world, after being associated with death, is now the Yellow Spring.
The "Yellow Spring" here does not refer to the impact of the psychic energy explosion on the surrounding world, but refers to the internal area of the psychic energy that is exploding at this moment. It is an area that should belong to reality, but is now occupied by non-real things.
This boundary area is what we call the Yellow Springs area.
Those strange existences that resemble "ghosts" are a phenomenon that exists solely in the Yellow Springs area, which can be called the Yellow Springs phenomenon. The specific manifestation of this phenomenon will also vary with the changes in the internal properties of the Yellow Springs.
The spiritual energy that erupted in Tokyo was caused by the seal on Shuten Douji for thousands of years, which led to the blocked flow of spiritual veins. After the seal was lifted, the accumulated spiritual energy will erupt at the nodes, forming a spiritual energy explosion phenomenon.
Generally speaking, the psychic energy explosion produced by ordinary spiritual veins will not produce a Yellow Springs area, but like the situation in Tokyo at night, the impact caused is only an increase in the concentration of psychic energy in a certain range, resulting in a situation similar to the "Night Parade of One Hundred Demons".
The psychic energy explosion of Amaterasu Shrine is fundamentally different from the above ones. It is more of an artificial summoning than a natural occurrence.
The priest first affected the spiritual veins and the wall of reality in the Amaterasu Palace area through the gathering of thousands of people and drastic emotional changes, making it weak in a short period of time.
Finally, through the power of the gods and the sacrifice of life, a channel between reality and the spiritual vein was forcibly opened, allowing spiritual energy to flow out.
If it were just this, it would not form the Yellow Spring. The second necessary condition for the formation of the Yellow Spring is that the spiritual energy must be polluted.
What polluted the spiritual veins of Amaterasu Shrine were the various sacrifices performed by the Japanese people here for thousands of years. Those foolish acts in an attempt to obtain the power of gods caused a large amount of negative emotions such as resentment, hatred, greed, bloodthirstiness, etc. to be generated in the spiritual veins of this place.
Facing the raging Yellow Springs wind and the "ghost" that kept trying to absorb his spiritual energy, Pochi completed his transformation once again.
Holding the Amaterasu spiritual energy bottle at his waist, Pochi remembered Yamada Ryo's instructions before he left, and the happy time when everyone completed the performance together.
"For everyone..."
Trying hard to cheer himself up, Pochi jumped directly into the boiling Yellow Spring.
The next moment, her figure disappeared into it.
"Here, this is..."
The moment he stepped into the underworld, the scenery in front of Pochi changed instantly, and the dilapidated ruins of Amaterasu Palace disappeared.
What appeared before him was a blood-red wasteland. The sky and the ground were stained with blood, and mutilated corpses were lying scattered on the cracked sand.
"quack!"
The crows that were pecking at the flesh of the corpse were frightened and flew away by Pochi's arrival.
As he walked, Pochi could still see the clothes that some of the corpses had worn when they were alive. Although he couldn't tell exactly what they were, he could still tell that they were related to religion.
Similarly, in some of the mountains of corpses and seas of blood, there were some broken flags. These rags stained with blood seemed to be telling Pochi about the bloody and barbaric sacrificial scenes.
Everything she saw made this girl, who had never seen life and death, feel severe physical discomfort. If it weren't for the spiritual resistance of the Thousand-Edge Gem and her experiences during this period of time, in the past, Pochi would have been shivering and vomiting on the spot.
For an unknown amount of time, Pochi was just moving forward based on her own feelings, because Kaguya Shinomiya told her that the space in the underworld could not be measured using the directions in the normal world. If she wanted to find her goal in it, she must have a strong enough willpower.
Of course, in order to be absolutely sure, Pochi adopted another method, which was the Amaterasu spiritual energy bottle she carried with her. This existence came from the same source as the gods, and there was a connection between it and her target.
Finally, after persevering in turning over the next pile of corpses, Bochi finally saw that extremely unusual thing. If nothing unexpected happened, that was the purpose of her trip.
Chapter 147 Amaterasu's Divine Remains
As we all know, there are gods in this world (novel), but judging from Tsukuyomi Zunmei who has merged with Shinomiya Kaguya, these powerful psychic beings have a very difficult time surviving in this era.
In this age when devout faith has almost disappeared, those who know of the existence of gods covet their power, and most people who do not know them naturally no longer provide faith. Perhaps they still maintain influence on the world, but this influence is no longer visible to ordinary people.
So will the gods who fall into such a harsh living environment die?
For the soul, death means the complete disappearance of consciousness, but for the gods that come from human faith, their death is a process of essential hollowing out. When people's faith no longer converges, when the divinity belonging to the gods in people's consciousness gradually dissipates, the gods that rely on faith will also gradually disintegrate their sacred essence.
Entering an age where "God is dead", there are only two ways left for those who believe in God.
First, completely combine one's power with humans, sign a contract between the two parties, and let one's consciousness fall into eternal slumber, such as the relationship between Tsukuyomi Zunming and Shinomiya Kaguya.
The second is to survive through regular blood sacrifices of a small number of believers by absorbing the spiritual energy of the sacrifices. This behavior is tantamount to drinking poison to quench thirst. Even if it can delay the death, it still cannot avoid the final demise. At the same time, their sacred essence will be tainted by blood, and at the time of death, they will become something else.
The product of the end of the corruption is what Pochi sees at this moment - the skeleton of God.
The so-called divine corpse is the body left behind after the death of a god. Although the divinity has disappeared, the divine power of the previous god still remains in it.
Pochi had never seen such a huge skeleton. Although it was human bones, it was thirty or forty meters high and covered with red cracks. It stood in a kneeling posture in the sea of corpses and yellow sand.
"Clap!"
"It's blood, lots of blood..."
Pochi approached the divine skeleton. The ground beneath her feet was already covered with dark red sticky blood, and the source of the blood was the heart of the huge divine skeleton.
A huge shriveled heart was constantly dripping blood from the ribs.
"This is……"
Pochi discovered that the Amaterasu psychic bottle in his hand began to emit light, and the closer he got to the divine skeleton, the brighter the light became.
"That is, the legendary Amaterasu?"
Pochi had never imagined that the gods that existed in human beings' beautiful fantasies would be so horrifying.
Crossing the mountains of corpses and seas of blood, Pochi came to the huge skeleton of the god. Suppressing the great psychological and physical discomfort, she began to operate according to what Kaguya Shinomiya said.
When Pochi was about to put the Amaterasu Psychic Bottle on the Transformer, she suddenly heard a hoarse and hollow voice.
"mortal……"
"Who?!"
Pochi was startled because the sound was really scary in this environment.
"God..."
"God?"
Pochi subconsciously looked at the skeleton of Amaterasu above his head.
The huge skeleton remained motionless and seemed to have not changed at all.
"Return my power to me!..."
After a little association, Pochi realized that the voice was referring to the Amaterasu spiritual energy bottle in his hand.
"Return the power that Tsukuyomi-sama has taken away!"
Pochi looked at the Amaterasu spiritual energy bottle in her hand. She was a little confused now. After all, Kaguya Shinomiya didn't say that the divine corpse could speak.
"Return my heart... the eternal world (Yellow Spring) dissipates..."
"Return to the illumination of divine light..."
Although Pochi could hardly understand Kamisaka's intermittent "chatter", he could still barely understand what he meant. Kamisaka wanted him to put the Amaterasu psychic bottle into that heart, and then everything would return to its "original state".
"But, Miss Shinomiya..."
Pochi hesitated for a moment, not knowing who to believe.
Although she trusted that Kaguya Shinomiya would not betray her, for some reason, what Kamiya said gave her a convincing feeling.
For Pochi, this feeling is a bit familiar...
"It seems like there was before..."
Amaterasu Miyuki appeared in the sky after he defeated Ibaraki Douji suddenly flashed through Pochi's mind.
"I'm sorry, God. I'll do it next time!"
The more he thought about it, the more confused he became. Pochi simply gave up thinking about who was right or wrong, and just pressed the Amaterasu Spiritual Energy Bottle onto his transformation device as planned.
"No!"
The next moment, a huge echo reverberated throughout the entire Yellow Springs space, and a strong wind blew. Those things that were originally dead all staggered to their feet, and the crows in the sky also rushed towards Pochi.
But now Pochi could no longer pay attention to these changes. The Thousand-sided Gem of the Transformation Device suddenly reacted violently, and a red glare swept out from the Amaterasu Psionic Bottle and completely enveloped Pochi.
The entire Yellow Springs space began to vibrate violently.
"The last step is to activate the bracelet!"
In the vortex of psychic energy, Pochi moved his fingers with difficulty and activated the bracelet that Hayasaka Ai gave him.
"Ahhh!"
……
"Dip! Drill! Drill! Drill!"
"Miss, there's a response. Pochi Silverhand succeeded!"
Outside, Hayasaka Ai was overjoyed when she saw the machine that sounded the alarm.
"Huh...release the energy."
Shinomiya Kaguya also seemed relieved.
"Yes, miss!"
Hayasaka Ai quickly controlled the machine, and saw that the machine quickly disintegrated and deformed except for the operable parts, and a device similar to a signal generator with a height of two or three meters was assembled.
"Start spreading!"
As Hayasaka Ai completed her final operation, the Yellow Springs spiritual energy and "ghost" creatures that continued to surge into the sky were attracted and gathered towards the signal generator, forming a huge spiritual energy vortex with a diameter of more than ten meters four or five meters above the generator, and it was still growing.
At the edge of the vortex, spiritual energy continuously transformed into light blue and then spread out in ripples.
The powerful wind pressure caused by the psychic energy caused Hayasaka Ai to fall to the ground, while Shinomiya Kaguya still stood there and continued to observe the growing psychic energy vortex.
"Snapped!"
A figure fell out from the shrinking light column. It was Pochi.
"Forehead……"
Pochi, in a mess, got up from the ground, and the armor on her body finally couldn't bear it and was transformed.
Seeing the wonder in front of him, Pochi asked Shinomiya Kaguya with a tired face: "Shinomiya...Miss, did it succeed?"
"........."
Kaguya Shinomiya did not answer Pochi's question. Looking at the vortex above her head that had expanded to completely cover the area, an ominous premonition arose in her heart. The purification and dispersion speed of the device seemed unable to match the total amount of psychic energy and the speed of attraction.
Chapter 148: Pochi: I have a solution!
"Dip! Drill! Drill! Drill!"
The psychic energy purification device sounded a series of alarms, and more and more energy was being drawn in, but the purification efficiency remained unchanged.
"Damn it, the spiritual energy flowing out of the rift is getting out of control. If it continues like this, the equipment won't be able to handle it!"
Hayasaka Ai was operating the instrument with sweat all over her forehead, but the readings on it were still rising. Even though the purification efficiency had been adjusted to the maximum, the total amount of spiritual energy contaminated by Huangquan was still increasing.
