The demon monk in the second dimension

"I see."

Xia Zhi nodded to him and flew out of Juncheng.

He rode the crimson light around the steam locomotive, inspected it, and, finding his arrangements intact, gave orders to the hunters.

"Everyone, get into the carriage!"

Soon, the hunter Kabaneri entered the city and closed the hatch.

Before long, the cave ahead appeared in front of Xia Zhi.

Many Kabane stood on the mountain, waiting for Cleveland to approach so they could descend from the sky.

Xia Zhi channeled a burst of magical power into Kecheng, activating the array patterns previously engraved on the carriage, and let out a furious roar.

"rise!"

In the blink of an eye, Kelantan was bathed in golden light!

After Xia Zhi activated the magic circle with his magic, a golden light unfolded from the top of each carriage in Ke Cheng.

The light was like a transparent golden shield.

Many Kabane jumped down from the mountaintop, hoping to hitch a ride, but were stopped by the shield and bounced to the left and right.

Once the city of Kecheng had passed safely, Xia Zhi withdrew her magic, and the golden light disappeared.

The last carriage opened again, and the Kabaneri continued to spill blood.

And so, Kecheng persevered for fifteen hours and arrived at Suguyi.

Soko Station was captured by the Kabane a few months ago and is now in ruins.

Instead of entering the city, Ke Cheng circled around it, attracting many Kabane from the surrounding area of ​​Sugu Station.

"almost."

After watching for a while, Xia Zhi sat down cross-legged, seeing that the Kabane army had completely surrounded the city and had no room to hide.

His primordial spirit flew out from the Niwan Palace, and his divine consciousness spread rapidly.

The Crimson Light Sword knew it was time for it to feast.

It flew out of the carriage with joy and hovered beside the spirit of the summer solstice.

With a wave of his hand, Xia Zhi's spirit sent the Kabane, who had just been dreaming of a feast, flying into the air with completely bewildered expressions.

The scene was so spectacular that it amazed countless Kabaneri, who looked at Xia Zhi with the expression of a god.

The entire circle of Kabane was integrated into the Crimson Light Sword, which then seemed to receive a massage, flashing red light incessantly.

Immediately afterwards, Xia Zhi's primordial spirit exerted its power once again.

He lifted the suspension bridge that Sugu Station had lowered and locked the iron lock connecting the suspension bridge with two clicks to prevent it from falling.

The troops from Kecheng also entered Sugu Station and stationed themselves along the city wall.

About two hours later, the Kabaneri Castle and the Fusō Castle entered Hayaku Station one after the other.

The Kabane here has been cleared away by the Summer Solstice, and reconstruction can begin.

……

News of the recapture of Suguyi was sent to all the major post towns, and the lords of each post town wrote extensively about it to inform the people in their towns.

For a long time, the news that ordinary people hear is negative news such as which post town has fallen and which post town has been pushed to the front line against the Kabane.

The collapse of each post station signifies a further tightening of resources and a worsening of living standards.

How can this make the people happy?

Now, upon hearing that a city that had been captured by the Kabane had been recaptured, everyone was somewhat incredulous.

But this is not a flash in the pan.

The second place to be recovered was Haimen Post Station.

Starting with Sugu Station, every three months thereafter news spread throughout all the fallen stations that the previous ones had been recaptured.

At the same time, ordinary people also know that humans now have weapons such as the Vulcan Gun, the Black Gun, and the Black Knife that can kill the Kabane.

There was even a post town called "Tama Station" that was crashed into by a steed loaded with Kabane because the city gates were not closed in time.

The samurai and men of Tama Station shouted "Purify your mind and body!" and charged at the Kabane with their weapons.

They fought desperately to clear the Kabane from the city, using gunpowder to blow up the drawbridge and railway tracks, thus protecting their homes.

When this news spread, people were even more excited!

Occasionally, news would come that the post town had been hit by "black smoke" and had fallen.

……

Shanchengyi is the post town that was ravaged by black smoke and fell into the hands of the Kabane.

Xia Zhi is not like a shogun who hides everything for fear of being overthrown.

He leaked all the information about the Kabane, the Kabaneri, and the Black Smoke, making it known to everyone.

At the same time, after taking control of the Japanese government, he also fully implemented his merit system.

After a Kabane dies, his soul remains in his body for seven days.

Some post towns were unable to send the Kabane bodies in time, and Xia Zhi could not possibly travel such a long distance for the hundreds of Kabane bodies.

Therefore, Xia Zhi modified the magic array in the blood pool of each post city, so that the blood and soul of the Kabane could form a blood-red crystal similar to a ruby, but more magnificent than a ruby.

These blood-red crystals are called blood crystals.

It takes about ten Kabane to form one gram of Blood Crystal, so one gram of Blood Crystal is worth 10 Merit Points.

The black smoke couldn't be dealt with by ordinary Vulcan rifles and black guns.

Compared to its enormous size, the samurai were nothing more than cannon fodder.

To prevent the black smoke from destroying more post towns, Xia Zhi would send the hunters out in Kecheng with heavy cannons every time he received news of the black smoke, or he would take action himself.

Shanchengyi is just like that.

Shanchengyi is a post station built halfway up a mountain.

Above Kecheng, Wuming climbed out of the carriage, looking at the huge black smoke moving in the distant mountains, his cute mouth forming an "O".

"It's definitely black smoke, and it's probably of medium size."

Two years have passed, and now at fourteen, she has grown into a graceful young woman.

Although her hairstyle was still a bob with a short braid on top, her outfit remained a close-fitting short-sleeved top in red, white, and black.

But she has grown in height, buttocks and breasts, and her figure has changed from a loli to a young girl.

Wuming climbed back into the carriage. Ke Cheng, who was also a good friend of Wuming's from Xianjin Station, was being driven by Yuna. She turned around and looked at her, saying something with some curiosity.

"Nameless, aren't you running for the position of the lord's maid? How come you have time to participate in the battle to recapture Shanchengyi?"

Like the nameless one, Yuna is also a Kabaneri.

Or rather, everyone who joins the Hunters must become a Kabaneri.

"Hehe, actually I've already been selected!"

Wuming arched his thick eyebrows, revealing bright, black pearl-like eyes beneath his long eyelashes.

"But the lord's maids need to be human, so I will have to be injected with white blood cells when I get back. This is the last chance to fight that I specifically requested from the lord, and I only came after the lord's approval."

"You got chosen! Congratulations! I knew you were going to succeed, being so cute and not as muscular as me!"

A smile appeared on Yuna's face.

"That's definitely worth celebrating! Let's go to that newly opened takoyaki shop..."

Before she could finish speaking, Chao Yi, who was also born in Xianjin and served as a gunner in Kecheng, shouted through the copper pipes used to transmit sound in Juncheng.

"Yuna, speed up! The black smoke is coming towards us!"

Their expressions changed simultaneously.

Wuming stuck his head out of the carriage again to observe, while Yuna turned on the communication channel and shouted loudly.

"Hold on tight, everyone!"

Yuna suddenly pulled the accelerator, turning the speed up to the maximum.

The steam locomotive roared fiercely!

Woohoo! ! !

Ke Cheng's speed immediately increased by 20%, matching the speed of the advancing black smoke!

"preparation……"

On the gun emplacement at the rear of Kecheng, Chao Yi extended his thumb, aimed at the black smoke, and calculated the wind speed and angle.

"Fire!"

boom!

When the front of the cannon bore met the black smoke, the 370mm caliber cannon emitted a loud bang.

A shell weighing several hundred kilograms flew out of the gun port and was sent towards the direction of the black smoke.

boom!

The shell exploded on the black smoke's shoulder, and the shockwave whipped up a gale that rattled Chao Yi's clothes.

Countless Kabane were knocked off the black smoke by the explosion and shockwave, revealing the faint blue glow that only the mutated iron elemental beings possessed.

But Chao Yi showed no joy whatsoever.

"Damn it, I missed. Reload!"

Chao Yi frowned deeply and gave orders to the loader.

In less than ten seconds, two Kabaneri loaders manually removed the scorching hot empty shell casings from the giant cannon, loaded a live shell, and slammed the cannon door shut.

The black smoke slowed down considerably due to the heavy bombardment, and it roared towards Kecheng.

The Kabane on its body crawled towards the spot that had just been bombed, trying to fill in the gap.

"good chance!"

Chao Yi calmed himself down and aimed again with his right thumb.

"Fire!"

boom!

The second bombardment hit Blue Star squarely!

In an instant, the Kabane mutant, which was the core of the fusion group, was engulfed by flames and explosions.

The towering black smoke, as tall as a small mountain, disintegrated in an instant, and tens of thousands of Kabane scattered like a waterfall, creating a terrifying sight.

But the Kabaneri of the Hunting Grounds showed joy on their faces.

When the black smoke was seen to be dispersed, the city slowly came to a stop.

The hunters, carrying the newly developed Vulcan II on their backs and with bayonets at their waists, leaped down from the city of Ke.

"Now it's our turn! Hunters, attack!"

……

Three days later, Shanchengyi was declared liberated.

……

The summer solstice has been in this world for four years.

The New Year had just passed, and the warriors of Haimen Post Station bid farewell to their families and came to the city gate shouting slogans.
