How come I, who has the physique of a succubus, was pushed back by the ship girl?

The two of them wandered around for who knows how many kilometers they had walked, and finally arrived at a small border town before dark.

The name of this small town is Mutsu. From the outside, you can tell that it has been invaded by war. Once you walk inside, the scene is completely different from what Zhou Xuan had imagined.

Compared with the modern style that Zhou Xuan had come into contact with before, the city here is more like what was described in books hundreds of years ago, with an ancient charm and charm.

There are no modern products, such as electric poles, light bulbs, doors and windows...

But on second thought, Sakura Empire is a country that reveres antiquity, and many of its ancient characteristics have been preserved intact by them. The scene before him is understandable, so Zhou Xuan didn't care about it anymore.

He pulled the Clearer, who had almost been unable to walk, and continued walking forward.

"Wait... walk slower, human... I can't walk any more."

I always like to call myself the Ice and Snow Lord to create a feeling of superiority.

But in fact, putting aside their childishness, the Cleaners and Purifiers have roughly the same personalities, and they are good at everything from throwing tantrums to acting cute and naughty.

Zhou Xuan was originally thinking, if he caused a scene on the street and attracted other people’s attention, would people think that he was a human trafficker who kidnapped young girls?

However, his worries seemed to be in vain. Even after walking a few more streets, he still couldn't see any living creature.

He had never seen either the mechanical yellow chicken used to maintain equipment and order, or the master of this country - the Sakura Empire's shipgirl.

This also aroused the dissatisfaction of the people around him, the Clearer said unhappily.

"Is this the decision you made? You said you would take me into the city for breakfast, and this is the result?"

"This place is deserted and dilapidated. There is no sign of life here."

"It seems that Zhou Xuan, you don't seem to have any other strengths except that aspect. I'm a little disappointed..."

Facing the scolding from the purgers, Zhou Xuan rolled his eyes. He finally understood that being gentle and considerate could not influence everyone, and sometimes one had to be tough.

"If I remember correctly, you are my prisoner, right? Don't forget your identity. If you want to have a full meal, don't talk and just follow me obediently."

".........snort!"

They were angry but dared not say anything. The current cleaners were indeed no match for Zhou Xuan. They had no choice but to submit to his tyranny and continue to move forward with him.

And in the shadows, where the two of them didn't notice, an amber gaze was secretly watching their every move.

Chapter 269: The Sakura Devil - Ayanami

Resolutely follow the organization, do not be confused, and do not waver. This is the important concept that Zhou Xuan continuously conveyed to the purgers along the way.

The Clearers think that there is some brainwashing or PUA element in it.

It was not until she, under the guidance of Zhou Xuan, accidentally found a vendor selling noodles that her attitude softened a lot.

He then stopped muttering and trotted forward with Zhou Xuan.

"Besides you, there are other humans here?" The Cleaner said weakly, seeming surprised.

"No, it's just a concrete projection."

"How do you know?"

Zhou Xuan explained.

"Look at his expression, it's dull and stiff, and when he turns around, his body sometimes appears transparent or has a color that doesn't match the ambient light."

“From this, we can draw a rough conclusion.”

Following Zhou Xuan's explanation, the Clearer quickly discovered this blind spot.

She took a step forward and lifted the tablecloth. As expected, the human being selling pastries in front of her was just a projection of the mechanical yellow chicken.

The source of the projection was the head of the mechanical yellow chicken. A blue light came out from it and formed a human figure, but when it came into contact with the Cleaner who leaned over to look at it, the figure disappeared, leaving only a cold question.

"What would you two gentlemen like to order?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the steamer magically opened by itself, and the food underneath was immediately revealed in front of Zhou Xuan.

In addition to steamed buns, most of the things in the cage are rice balls and simple sushi, which can be considered as local characteristics.

There weren't many varieties, but in order to fill his stomach, Zhou Xuan still chose a few, including two buns and a rice ball.

As a Siren, the Cleaner had never come into contact with such things before and didn't know what to eat, so he followed Zhou Xuan's standards.

In this way, there were four buns and two rice balls. But when he paid the bill, Zhou Xuan was dumbfounded.

"The total value of the goods is ten coins. Please choose your payment method."

"1. Yongle Tongbao"

“2. Gold and Silver”

"3. Private banknotes"

Zhou Xuan was stunned. He looked down at the knife in his hand and was speechless for a long time.

"This...what is going on? I remember that according to the previous documents, the Sakura Empire also used sword music. What the hell are these three?"

As for the payment options, there are some clues in the previous section. When the word "Yongle" is mentioned, the first thing that comes to mind is a dynasty before Donghuang.

As for the gold and silver, they are now used as reserve funds. How could Zhou Xuan carry them with him?

As for private paper money, which seemed to have existed in ancient times, he had never heard of it.

"You said.....we have traveled through time, right?"

The Clearer shook his head and replied.

"No, at least I didn't detect any magnetic field fluctuations. Besides, how could ancient Sakura Empire have such a thing?"

Zhou Xuan looked at the mechanical yellow chicken pointed out by the Cleaner Rouyi, and the fleeting guess that passed through his mind was also denied by him.

His mind returned to reality, and Zhou Xuan felt a headache as he looked at the mechanical yellow chicken that had not completed the last step and was determined not to provide food.

He tried to put the coin in his hand on it, one, two, but in the end all the coins were spit out from the coin slot and onto the Cleaner, causing a great fury.

"Damn it! You're just a dead creature without any intelligence, yet you dare to do this to me!"

"Look, I'm going to tear you into pieces!"

After saying that, the angry Cleaner rushed forward. Zhou Xuan did not try to stop him, but just watched silently.

However, just as the mortal cleaner was about to rush forward, there was a sudden flash of a sharp knife, and Zhou Xuan felt a chill behind him.

"Enemy attack, be careful!"

Zhou Xuan's reminder came in time, and the cleaner reacted quickly, dodging the sharp sword attack by turning sideways in time, leaving only a few strands of silver threads flying in the air.

No longer daring to be careless, the two of them immediately gathered together, shoulder to shoulder, to guard against the enemy in front of them.

The person who came was a young girl, which could be seen from her height and thin figure.

Looking at her outfit, she was wearing a pure white sailor suit and a navy blue pleated skirt.

The inquiring gaze was from bottom to top, and her face was hidden by the hood, so her true appearance could not be seen clearly.

However, from her exposed mechanical red and white devil horns and the silver-white hair floating on her temples, one can roughly see her true identity.

Especially the huge ship-cutting sword, which Zhou Xuan could hardly ignore.

This is... Ayanami. Great, meeting her means I have a helper. Zhou Xuan's eyes lit up.

But before he could be happy, the person in front of him, Ayanami, took new action.

"It's a face I've never seen before. It seems that you are the source of the unrest..."

"Whether it's a spy or something else, I will resolutely eradicate it."

This was the last sentence she said before she left. Without waiting for Zhou Xuan to react, she attacked them at lightning speed.

Under the light of the sky, the sharp sword flashed a dazzling light. As it was raised and dropped, it chopped towards the cleaner, leaving no room for him.

"What...what are you doing!!! I don't remember ever offending you."

Being called a ghost god, Ayanami's strength is extremely powerful.

In addition, the current Cleaners have all their abilities sealed by Zhou Xuan, making them no different from mortals. Naturally, they are no match for her, and fleeing is the best outcome.

"This has nothing to do with personal grudges. I am simply speaking on execution issues."

"My sword is very sharp. Soon... I will free you. Don't worry."

"You still say it's not a personal grudge? I think this is a personal grudge! Gua, human, save me!!!"

Even the usual immature speaking habits are no longer mentioned, which is enough to show how dangerous the current situation of the Clearers is.

Even though the two were still enemies, they were now somewhat dependent on each other and were like brothers in distress. Zhou Xuan still chose to take action, and stood in front of her with his mortal body.

"Zhou...Zhou Xuan!!!"

Instinctively, the Cleaner breathed a sigh of relief. Opposite him, Ayanami frowned instinctively, having the rare leisure time to persuade.

"I am following orders to track down the spies. Please don't make things difficult for me."

"Once I kill her, everything will be fine..."

She had no idea where the feeling in her heart came from. It was clearly just their first meeting, but she had a natural liking for Zhou Xuan.

The reason she stopped was because a strange instinct secretly urged her not to draw her knife against him.

Ayanami had no choice but to persuade her, but for Zhou Xuan, what has been decided is decided and will not change, he said.

"We two came here together. We are not spies as you said."

"If you really don't believe me, how about this? I'll fight you. If you win, you can put away your knife and try to accept us. How about that?"

"Otherwise, we'll leave it to you."

Ayanami didn't say anything. She looked at Zhou Xuan, who wanted to challenge her with his bare hands, and a hint of surprise and confusion flashed in her eyes.

But without hesitation, in the next second, she raised her weapon again, ignoring the restraining instinct in her heart, and rushed towards Zhou Xuan quickly.

"It seems that you are also her accomplice in creating chaos..."

"Well, I agree to your request. Let me give you the corresponding judgment... I'm going to do it."

Chapter 4: Not a Shipgirl, but a Samurai (K)

From the Northern League to the Sakura Empire, there were some coincidences involved.

The conversation was not going well, and Zhou Xuan, who was regarded as the source of the so-called unrest because of his unfamiliar face, had no choice but to engage in a head-on confrontation with Ayanami.

Even he didn't know what the root cause of the unrest was.

She had no intention of showing mercy and no martial ethics at all. From the very beginning, Ayanami swung her sword and slashed at him with great force.

There was no intention to fight him with a weapon at hand, nor was there any time left for him to prepare.

The sword energy cut through the sky, and the sonic booms caused by the high-speed swinging of the sword exploded right beside Zhou Xuan's ears, one after another.

The situation was extremely urgent. How could Zhou Xuan, who did not have a suitable weapon at the moment, be a match for Ayanami?

After repeated defeats, he was forced to dodge and move around to find Ayanami's flaws in the battle and then exploit them.

"No matter where you hide, my sword will follow you and strike you there. Hiding alone is useless!"

"So... come and fight me head-on!"

During the battle, after the sword light fell, Ayanami's voice also came, and it was particularly loud.

Zhou Xuan was not affected by her instigation and did not fight for the short term. His thinking remained calm.

One is fully armed, the other is unarmed. Such a gap cannot be made up by pure fighting will.

So he was waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity that could temporarily stop Ayanami's attack.

In this case, what is being competed is not only the technology, but also the mentality during the battle.

As time went by, after a long period of chasing and fighting, Ayanami seemed to have become tired of this way of fighting.

Her amber eyes also changed from the initial brightness to the current darkness, as if she was somewhat impatient.

She suddenly shouted loudly.

"I thought you would give me some kind of surprise, but it turned out to be nothing more than this..."

"I have no patience anymore, I'm going to finish you off right here!"

"I'm going to fuck!"
