"Hey, the one in front, wait a minute."
"Is there anyone else in the bamboo forest?" Sarinko turned around and saw a red and white figure flying towards him at super speed. "Eh hey hey hey?! Hakurei Reimu..."
"What are you doing here sneaking around in the middle of the night! The bamboo forest here seems endless, and even I have been trapped for a long time. Could you be the one guarding this place?" Reimu Hakurei stopped not far in front of Saringo, holding the imperial coin in her hand, her eyes narrowed, as if she was sizing up Saringo.
"No, no, no, I don't have that ability. I'm also trapped here and can't get out..." Sarinko was afraid that the Gensokyo urban management officer in front of him would throw a Yin-Yang Jade at him without saying a word, so he said weakly.
"…Are you really not the one guarding this bamboo forest?" Hakurei Reimu said doubtfully, "That's strange. Come closer so I can take a good look at who you are."
"Ms. Reimu, can't you see me?" asked Sarinko.
"Stop talking nonsense. I didn't see anything. Just come here honestly." Hakurei Reimu snorted and moved closer to Saringo again. Only then could she see Saringo's face clearly in the darkness. "Hmm, aren't you the girl with strange abilities in the human village? I often see you in places where strange things happen. Oh, yes, there's also the paper box with endless food. I have a deep impression of you."
“…Ahaha.” Sarinko smiled awkwardly but elegantly. What a strange impression. I can’t be happy at all.
"I remember that you often hang out with the people from the Scarlet Devil Mansion, right? It was the same before. That magician named Patchouli actually appeared in the Human World. Is it because of you?" Hakurei Reimu analyzed, and her eyes looked at Sarinko more and more strangely. "Speaking of which, I always felt that the flow of time was very wrong. If it was done by the maid who can control time, then everything makes sense."
"Hey, your name is Sarinko, right? Since you are in cahoots with the people from the Scarlet Devil Mansion, and as someone with a history of mutations, you probably know something. Tell me everything quickly!"
"? Why do you suddenly think I'm from the Scarlet Devil Mansion?" Sarinko twitched her lips. Seeing Hakurei Reimu's full momentum, she could only prepare for defense. "Although it is true that it was Sakuya who allowed the night to continue, it has nothing to do with me who acted alone to solve the incident..."
"You even know the mastermind behind the mutation, yet you still say it has nothing to do with you. Even if you can hide it from the eyes of a bird, you can't hide it from mine. The continuous extension of the night is related to your actions. The one who stops the night is that vampire. Take me to find Remlia quickly!" Hakurei Reimu threw out a talisman, and spiritual energy bullets began to fly towards Sarinko.
"How would I know where they are now? I've already said that we are not together anymore. Besides, extending the night is just a means to solve the moon anomaly. It's really unreasonable!" Zuo Linqin was about to fight back, but suddenly felt something was wrong.
"So I'm the boss of the road? I'm here to block the way for Remi and the others, uh..."
In the blink of an eye, Sarinko put on the mask of pain and revealed a twisted expression. Hakurei Reimu has always been killing people during the anomaly. Marisa often brags about Hakurei Reimu's genius. Sarinko really can't bear the idea of confronting her.
At least I have to grow for another year or so, to improve my skills, level, and equipment, and to be fully armed...
"I'd better run away first. She won't keep chasing me." Zorinko thought so and patted the guardian spirit beside him, "Cosi, speed up!"
"Want to escape? It's futile!" Hakurei Reimu threw the talisman in her hand, and a small formation appeared under Sarinko's feet. "Dream Talisman, Demon Sealing Formation."
Sarinko, who wanted to gain some distance and escape, suddenly felt the weightlessness on his body disappear, and he fell to the ground with a plop.
"Kesi, help me!" After Zorinko shouted, he found the Gravity Crow flapping its wings beside him. The Sealing Demon Formation seemed to have a greater effect on it. "When was this formation set up?"
"Well, I've been casting spells since I first saw you... but I didn't expect you to actually fall for it." Hakurei Reimu landed on the ground, looking down at Sarinko who was twisted like a maggot. "Although your ability is quite unique, your vigilance and observation skills are too weak."
"This is convenient. We don't even have to play the spell card game. Tell me the information quickly." Hakurei Reimu held the coin in her hand and threatened, "Since you came here, I won't believe anything you don't know!"
"I told you, you won't run away again. Why don't you untie this Demon Sealing Array?" Zorinko felt that the restraint of the Demon Sealing Array was getting stronger, and even the health bar began to lose blood slowly.
"Okay, but you have to know that if I can catch you once, I can catch you a second time. Hurry up and tell me." After saying this, Reimu Hakurei was about to peel off the talisman paper to lift the magic-sealing formation.
"In fact, the mastermind behind the mutation is not Remlia..." Sarinko said quickly.
"Huh?!" Hakurei Reimu looked at Sarinko suspiciously, and put down her hand that was peeling off the talisman paper.
Feeling the restraints tighten again, Sarinko immediately shouted, "But I know who the real mastermind is!"
"Hmm." He opened the lid again.
"Although this is just my analysis from Meihong, I don't know if it's accurate..."
"Um?!"
“…It hurts, it hurts, I can’t breathe anymore, big sister, please stop torturing me! The ones who stole the moon must be the Yongyuan Pavilion gang living in the Lost Bamboo Forest!”
"Yongyuanting, I seem to have some impression of it."
Hakurei Reimu quickly untied the talisman, and Sarinko felt his body lighten. When he got up from the ground, he found that Hakurei Reimu had flown again, as if she was going to find the mastermind to resolve everything.
Chapter 200: Motivation for Solving the Mutation
"My intuition tells me that I should go this way." Reimu Hakurei pinched her chin and murmured to a dense bamboo forest.
"Isn't this completely blocked?"
Reimu Hakurei glanced at Sarinko who had followed her for some reason, and without explaining anything, she simply pulled Sarinko over and rushed towards the bamboo forest ahead.
Before Sarinko could react, the surrounding environment had changed drastically and suddenly became bright.
"This maze is quite sophisticated. It managed to trap me for so long." Hakurei Reimu said calmly, "But it's best not to encounter such troublesome things again in the future."
"I actually got out by relying on intuition. Are all the priestesses in Gensokyo monsters? Ouch, it hurts!" Sarinko sighed speechlessly, and then Reimu Hakurei swung a knife on his head.
"Who are you calling a monster?" Hakurei Reimu complained without any fluctuation in her tone, and then she grabbed Sarinko's arm again and said, "This is the enemy's base camp anyway, and we can't just leave you here."
"I can walk by myself, don't pull me!" Just as Sarinko was about to pull his hand back, Hakurei Reimu once again stuck it tightly with a talisman.
"Children, please don't run around in places like this. It's very dangerous."
"I'm obviously several years older than you, you bastard, let me go!" Sarinko is the same height as Remlia, but Reimu Hakurei is almost half a head taller than her, which makes Sarinko feel painful.
“…I can’t tell. Then at this time you should show the demeanor of an elder and stay quiet, right?” Although Hakurei Reimu removed the talisman again, she stabbed Sarinko in the heart.
Height is indeed a disadvantage...
"Guuuu... I was completely underestimated. There's no other way I can do but let me show you the props I have treasured for a long time." Sarinko rummaged through his pockets, but there were too many things in the backpack, and he couldn't find what he wanted for a while.
"Ah, got it, got it... This is a classic~clang clang clang~Ma○ao's mushroom!"
"...I feel like you and Marisa will have a lot in common." Hakurei Reimu's mouth twitched slightly. "Only she would treasure mushrooms. Your mushroom is one red and one white. It looks like it's poisonous."
"It's okay. The item description doesn't say it's poisonous." Saringo still trusted the items produced by the system and ate them in a few bites. "It tastes terrible... but I felt it right away. My body felt so hot."
"Your body has turned red. Is this mushroom really okay?" Reimu Hakurei was ready to punch Sarinko in the stomach at any time to induce vomiting.
“…Well, here it comes—Duduliduliduli!” As Sarinko played a short music with his ventriloquism.
At this sound effect, Sarinko quickly grew larger, and her height suddenly exceeded Reimu Hakurei by two heads!
"I'm still a little bit uncomfortable with my enlarged vision. Do my legs look very long to you now?" Sarinko kicked his legs playfully, and then struck a strange pose that showed off his figure.
Although there's nothing much to see... after all, the growth is in proportion, and Sarinko still has that flat body.
"If it's a leg, it's probably a bit long..." Reimu Hakurei twitched her lips and answered speechlessly.
A mushroom that can make the human body grow bigger without any side effects? Marisa would be so happy if she knew about this.
Speaking of which, Gensokyo seems to have mushrooms that can make people smaller or grow chickens...
"Hey, now I'm taller than you." Sarinko said condescendingly, with his hands on his waist, and took out a small flower and a star with a human face. "These are props from a national-level game. There is also a matching small flower. After eating it, you can release fireballs infinitely. Eating this star can make you invincible for a few seconds..."
“…Where on earth did you find so many strange props? Do whatever you want. I’m going to watch you put on a farce.” Hakurei Reimu held her forehead with her hand, and she was actually led astray by this guy without realizing it.
The mastermind behind this hasn't been found out yet, so there's no time for that.
"What? I'm not performing."
Clap, clap, clap - for some reason, the sound of applause came from the surrounding grass.
"Who is it?" Hakurei Reimu immediately threw a spell card towards the place where the voice came from.
With the sound of leaves rustling, a little girl with rabbit ears on her head and wearing a pink dress walked out. However, she looked like she had fought with others several times. Her clothes were dirty and covered with marks of being hit by spell cards.
"Oh, no... Because the trick of taking things from the void was so amazing, I couldn't help but applaud." He didn't feel nervous at all as if he was discovered by the enemy. Instead, he looked exhausted. "Really, how many guests are there tonight? The rabbits are too tired to organize any defense."
"I have done my best, so just pretend you didn't see me and hurry over. Go find Lingxian, hurry up!"
The rabbit girl waved her hands at Hakurei Reimu and Sarinko in a look of self-abandonment, and it seemed that she really had no intention of fighting with them.
"Hmm...it seems Meihong, Remi and the others have already broken in." Sarinko nodded. "After all, so much time has passed."
"Then quickly point out the way to your leader, or I'll beat you up again." Reimu Hakurei slapped the imperial coins in her hand, not looking like she was joking at all.
"Ms. Reimu, you just want to use the mutation to start a fight, right?" Sarinko moved a little further away. "When I met you before, you just attacked me without listening to my explanation..."
"Well, clearing the obstacles on the road to mutation is also part of solving the mutation." Reimu Hakurei puffed out her chest and said, "As long as I have no conscience, your accusations will have no effect on me!"
"I'm telling you, my old bones can no longer play those young people's games." The bunny girl rolled her eyes and said, "Go find our leader. It's okay for me to tell you this~"
"Old bones..." Sarinko looked at the bunny girl who was much shorter than she was before she became bigger... But youkai can't judge age by appearance.
"Come to think of it, I didn't see you when I came to Eternal Pavilion before."
"I often see you and Fujiwara no Momoko hanging out in the bamboo forest. I also live in the bamboo forest. My name is Inaba-tei." Inaba-tei was holding a branch and writing on the ground. He actually drew the route to Eien-tei. "As long as we follow these roads, we can avoid the traps set by the rabbits, and then we will soon meet Ling...our leader, puff puff."
"I'm sorry, I suddenly remembered something happy. This route is definitely not wrong~" Emperor Inaba coughed twice and explained specially to avoid arousing suspicion from the two.
"No matter how I look at you, you are hiding something..."
"Hmm~~ But the route is definitely correct. Maybe you can try walking on your own?"
"No need, I'll just follow your lead and go this way." Hakurei Reimu said directly, "Anyway, if I'm wrong, I'll just come back and give you a beating."
"Woah, you're really scary."
Emperor Inaba jumped back and together with Sarinko put some distance between themselves and Reimu Hakurei.
Chapter 201 Wow! Golden Legend!
For the time being, they followed the route given by Emperor Inaba. The route that Reimu Hakurei had walked out of by intuition was equivalent to the resting area in the bamboo forest maze, and the Eternal Pavilion was hidden somewhere deeper.
If I don’t rely on someone to guide me, I’m afraid I’ll end up back where I was…
In addition to the route map drawn by Inaba Tei, she also patted Sarinko and the other person on the shoulder before leaving. Since then, a shiny buff has appeared in the status bar.
"A big lucky pattern... your luck index will increase within a certain period of time." Sarinko swallowed.
There is no such ethereal attribute as luck in the system's personal panel, and Zoringo has not yet drawn any props or skills that can increase the luck index.
"Ms. Reimu, do you feel any improvement in yourself?" Sarinko couldn't help but pat Hakurei Reimu who was looking for a mark beside her, and asked.
"…Well, I feel like I'm in a particularly good state right now, and I don't know why." Hakurei Reimu clenched her hands, it was an indescribable feeling. "This feeling started to appear after I met that rabbit. Did she do anything?"
"Well, it seems to have improved our luck, it's quite magical."
"How lucky." Reimu Hakurei stopped, picked up a stick from the ground, and threw it.
"What are you doing?"
"Show the way. Okay, let's go this way." Reimu Hakurei replied indifferently.
"Hasn't that guy Inaba Tei already told us the route?" Sarinko asked stupidly.
"There are no reference points in this place. I have no idea which route she is pointing to." Hakurei Reimu stared at Sarinko for a while with the same eyes as she would look at BAKA. "Trust my instinct. Go this way."
“Why do I feel so unreliable…” Sarinko pulled her cheek.
Why think so much? Looking at the luck rising in the buff bar in front of you, is there anything else you can do besides drawing cards?
He emptied his mind and entered the card drawing starry sky. He still had enough gold coins for four ten-draw draws. With the mentality of giving it a try, Zoringo clicked the card drawing button.
[Skills Ink Shot (blue), Holy Night Cuddling Love Sofa (white)...Devil's Heavy Attack (gold)]
Amidst a series of basically useless items and skills, a gold-level skill suddenly appeared!
[Demon King's Heavy Attack: A random attack by Demon King Lance, causing guaranteed melee damage equal to 8 times the attack power.]
A very concise skill description, because this skill is just a relatively powerful basic attack... This person called Demon King Lance is the first time that Zoringo has seen him in the card pool.
"Emmm, can this also be rated as gold? It doesn't seem that unusual..." Zoringo carefully observed the skill description again, and found a line of very small font at the bottom: "...can completely cut off the target's clothes."
"…Wow, the Exploding Clothes Slash." Sarinko couldn't help but complain, "The damage is not high, but it is extremely insulting."
Add to that the guaranteed hit, this guy named Lance is really an old sp.
This Demon King's heavy attack does not require a sword or other props to use. I feel that this guaranteed clothes-blasting ability will definitely be useful, but I still think it does not deserve the gold rating.
But it is a golden skill after all. Zoringo didn't think about it anymore and continued to focus on drawing cards, and once again invested in the last ten consecutive draws.
[Endless Wine Cup (Purple), Dark Eclipse (Blue)...Magic Warrior Charliot (Gold)]
[Magic Warrior Charliot: The blazing soul turns into magic, shine—the seven stars of justice! The heart of faith is our magic! Magic Warrior Charliot, meet you! ]
It was just a ten-round burst of forty shots, but two gold ones popped out. This made the furniture piled up in Zoringo's backpack space cry.
"This lucky buff is real! It's amazing!" Sarinko couldn't help but clench his fists, and he had the idea of going back to catch the rabbit monster and raise it.
"Is it a golden item this time? It looks like a huge thing. It looks like... a Gundam?" Sarinko looked at the icon with a robot face in the item column. The resolute metallic face revealed a different kind of handsomeness. "I really want to let it out and take a look..."
"Why did you stop?" Reimu Hakurei asked when she saw Sarinko slowing down.
"I want to see the radish..." Sarinko said, unable to bear the itch in his heart, and reached into the backpack space, "Ms. Reimu, please stand a little further away."
"What are you doing again... Uwaaa?!"
The huge battleship was grabbed from Sarinko's backpack and placed on the ground with a loud crash. The ground cracked in several places and the surrounding bamboo forest was crushed. The battleship looked like a piece of wood, but it was incredibly hard.
“Uh, why is it a ship…? It would be nice if there was an instruction manual.” Sarinko looked at the huge creature in front of him, and didn’t notice that Reimu Hakurei beside him had her mouth twitching, and she raised her fist and hit Sarinko on the forehead.
