The demon monk in the second dimension

"Six roots are pure!"

"Six roots are pure!"

These warriors held Vulcan lances in their hands, had bayonets at their waists, and wore leather armor that could effectively protect them from Kabane scratches and bites.

"alert!"

The leading samurai gave a loud shout, and the samurai split into two rows.

The first row knelt on one knee, while the second row stood with both legs up, raising their guns and looking straight ahead.

On the city wall, just as the newly appointed lord of Haimen Post Station was about to order the city gates to be opened, an observer shouted loudly.

"Wait! There's a skill stealer!"

The city lord frowned.

"Sniper!"

"coming!"

A young man carrying a special Vulcan rifle and wearing goggles ran over.

Compared to a regular Vulcan rifle, his Vulcan rifle was equipped with a scope.

Lying prone on the city wall, the young man adjusted his angle, aiming his gun at the attacker.

boom!

A gunshot rang out, and blood splattered from the attacker's head as he collapsed to the ground.

While a bullet to the brain won't kill a Kabane, a Kabane with a damaged brain will cease to move, and its body will only twitch involuntarily.

"Good job!"

The city lord of Haimen Post Station gave the sniper an approving look: Who said this young sniper's marksmanship is not good?

Isn't this great!

"You flatter me, Lord City Lord."

The sniper wiped the sweat from his brow and chuckled silently.

I was aiming at the heart!

Luckily, it hit!

"Open the city gate!"

Clang, clang, clang!

At the city lord's command, the operator pulled and twisted the switch, and the winch operated, slowly lowering the iron lock that was holding the city gate.

Across from the city gates, the bloodthirsty Kabane were already impatient!

"Woo!"

Before the city gates were fully open, several Kabane jumped over!

But the warriors, experienced in numerous battles, remained calm and collected, waiting for the Kabane to let them in!

Thirty meters, twenty meters...

The lead warrior shouted when the Kabane was within ten meters.

"Fire!"

Bang bang bang!

Gunfire erupted immediately!

Ten Vulcan muskets fired simultaneously, the loud gunshots echoing through the relatively enclosed city gate.

The Kabane at the forefront fell backward in unison, and more than half of them had their cardiac membranes ruptured.

After five rounds of firing, six warriors stepped forward.

They carried Vulcan pistols at their waists, capable of piercing the steel membrane in the heart of a Kabane within five meters, and held black guns or black knives in their hands. Together with the lead warrior, they charged out.

"Fix bayonets! Kabaneri vanguard, charge with me!"

"Come on!"

The other warriors took the opportunity to change their magazines, chanting Buddhist mantras, and launched a charge together with the Kabaneri vanguard.

"Purify the six senses! Purify the six senses!"

Half an hour later, the warriors returned safely with the corpses of over a hundred Kabane.

Apart from a few Kabaneri who were bitten because of the scarcity of bullets, no one died.

……

woo woo woo woo!

On the railway tracks, a magnificent city sped by.

As they approached Yicheng, the train conductor slowed down and leaned out of the carriage.

"Is this Brother Tsuchida? I'm Tairou from Fusōjō!"

"Oh, it's Dalang. Come in."

An observer on the city wall gave a signal, and the drawbridge at the post station was lowered.

Upon seeing this, the eldest son smiled at the observer.

"Thanks a lot, bro! I'll treat you to drinks after I finish this bus trip!"

"Forget it. You should keep that little bit of money for your wedding! It's my treat!"

Tsuchida smiled and waved, then took out a cigarette from his pouch, lit it, and took a satisfying puff.

"Phew~ If it weren't for the Master, someone like me wouldn't even have a cigarette to smoke! Long live the Master!"

……

After stopping at Fusang City and undergoing routine checks, and knowing that the journey wouldn't begin until tomorrow, many people chose to get off and explore.

"This is Kenkin Station, the industrial center of present-day Japan, the birthplace of the Vulcan rifle and Vulcan cannon?"

The boy from another post town took a deep breath, his eyes shining.

"The air here is different from other post towns! It's filled with the smell of gunpowder and steel!"

A passerby gave the boy a look as if he were an idiot and offered a reminder.

"The Master said that the air is polluted. Xianjin Post Station is becoming unsuitable for human habitation, and we are considering whether to relocate non-staff members."

"Ugh?"

The boy was taken aback, then scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly.

Ignoring the middle-aged man on the street, the boy's stomach began to rumble.

He touched his belly and scanned the area with his left hand to see if there were any restaurants, when suddenly his eyes lit up.

"What a beautiful person!"

She was a girl of similar height to him.

The other person was wearing a pink kimono with cloud patterns, which was tied up in the middle with an orange sash, revealing a pair of snow-white and crystal-clear calves wearing black wooden clogs.

Her long, jet-black hair was tied into pigtails with yellow ribbons, falling naturally from both sides.

On her petite and adorable round face, a pair of rosy dimples appeared as she smiled and spoke to the man in front of her.

Upon seeing the man, the boy exclaimed in surprise again.

"What a handsome older brother!"

I've never seen such a handsome person!

The other person had neat short silver hair, was a head taller than him, wore a plain white cloud robe, and had dark eyes as deep as the starry sky.

He reached out and gently pinched the girl's nose, shook his head with a smile, and walked into the dumpling shop with her.

"Meatballs? I haven't had them in ages."

The boy thought for a moment and then followed him inside.

As soon as he entered, he saw the owner of the meatball shop and many other people bowing deeply to the man, and he exclaimed in surprise.

"Master Mage!"

"what?"

The boy was stunned.

Is this the legendary mage?

As expected, only the legendary mage could be this handsome!

Chapter 56 Automated Flying Sword

For the boy, meeting Xia Zhi was a very pleasant surprise.

He will remember this for the rest of his life, and even in his old age he can brag about it to his grandchildren.

"Grandpa, I also met the Master when I was young!"

But for Xia Zhi, today is Wuming's sixteenth birthday.

He responded to the nameless woman's expectations and spent half a day shopping with her.

After all, he was going to eat Wuming tonight, so of course he would grant this little wish.

More than a year ago, Japan's Kabane elimination plan was already on track.

In order to please Xia Zhi, after the summer solstice, Shikagawa Kenji and Madoka Takeshi will jointly launch a maid selection plan at Yashiro Station and Kengan Station.

Xia Zhi also felt that he needed to balance work and rest, since he would be staying in this world for quite some time.

After rigorous selection based on appearance, figure, and personality, and specifically excluding the daughters of Yoshikawa Ayame and Madoka Takeshi who had been deliberately placed there by someone with ulterior motives, Xia Zhi chose two maids to attend to her daily life and arrange some matters.

They are Wuming and Qiu.

Nameless is often on the front lines of the battle against the Kabane, and his mental fortitude and physical skills surpass those of ordinary people.

Xia Zhi put her in charge of the distribution of merits related to blood pools and blood crystals.

Qiu is a thrifty and gentle young woman who is also very principled and takes care of his daily life.

Simply put, it's a work assistant and a personal secretary.

I spent an afternoon with Wuming at Xianjin Station, and we visited several of her favorite shops together.

After dinner, Xia Zhi reviewed the documents that Bai Qiu had prepared during the day.

Currently, there are 136 post stations in Japan, of which 124 have always existed, and 12 were recaptured after being occupied by the Kabane.

Haimen Post Station, Sugu Post Station, and Shancheng Post Station are three of them.

There were 136 post towns, with a combined population of over five million.

With the supply based on the full-scale production capacity of Japan, nearly 10,000 Vulcan rifles and millions of bullets can now be produced every month.

One heavy artillery piece can be produced per year to deal with the black smoke.

With the supply of blood crystals from all over the country, Xia Zhi's cultivation level also advanced from the early stage of Golden Core to the middle stage.

Unless encountering black smoke, Xia Zhi no longer needs to run around harvesting Kabane; she can simply wait for the Blood Crystals from other post cities to be delivered to her door.

After finishing his official business in half an hour, Xia Zhi turned to Wuming and Qiu beside him, smiled slightly, and patted his thigh.

"Sit over here."

"Hey!"

Wuming sat casually on Xia Zhi's left thigh, took the initiative to hug his arm, and looked at Qiu with a grin.

The loach, who was eaten by the summer solstice last year, still blushes when he touches her.

"My lord..."

But faced with Xia Zhi's expectant gaze, she couldn't refuse and hesitantly sat down on Xia Zhi's lap.
