There is something wrong with my infinite flow teammates!

"You haven't eaten yet, right? Want to try Yukino's cooking?"

Chapter 47: Frostmourne, Hungry

Osaka Prefecture is still a busy scene, with rescue teams, military and government workers working hard.

The hospital was overcrowded. Outside Dotonbori Commercial Street, the worst-hit area, blue tents were set up. Injured people were constantly being carried in on stretchers. There was an area where bodies covered with white cloth were connected together, and the area was blocked even more tightly.

Billboards and televisions were broadcasting scenes of the disaster. The Prime Minister kept bowing and apologizing. The whole of Japan was paralyzed that day. There were large-scale marches in almost every city, demanding an explanation from the cabinet.

Supermarkets were looted and all kinds of storable foods were sold out, including toilet paper.

Reporters from various countries also flocked to the disaster-stricken area, swarmed around the person in charge, and put the microphone to his mouth... The whole country was in chaos.

However, on the street next to the parade, one or two young men and women wearing sweatshirts and hoods were watching everything with indifference.

It was Yukino and Osaka team's strongest fighter 'Okahachiro'.

"Even though you confirmed that Nura is the admiral who is in charge of the situation now."

Okahachiro looked up, glanced at the news on the billboard, and said coldly: "I still can't completely trust you."

"No, you already believe me, Mr. Okahachiro, because you have no one to trust."

Yukino raised her lips and said softly, "Your mission is exactly the same as the Tokyo team's, which is to wipe out all the monsters in Osaka Prefecture. Even if you don't believe me, you can't not believe them."

"I did not tell you the truth, because if we tell it to you, we will both die. You guessed it right, I am still using you. I think there is a stronger existence than Nura, and maybe I need to use your mecha."

"If we want to kill the being behind this, we must first kill the Nura. Unfortunately, it is surrounded by the army and we cannot do anything for the time being..."

"You only have eight days left, but we have no deadline. You can choose not to believe it and fight alone, or you can choose to believe it and continue to be used by me."

She looked up at Okahachiro, who had a complicated look in his eyes, and chuckled, "So, do you choose to face Nura alone, and all the monsters still lurking among humans, or do you risk your own death and be used by me?"

Okahachiro frowned tightly, feeling an indescribable feeling of suffocation in his heart.

He had met the remaining three members of the Tokyo team: a bald old man, a poor fellow with his limbs cut off, and the other was the most popular celebrity model in Japan, Reika Shimodaira.

They may come from another mysterious force and be more advanced than the black ball technology.

This woman could not reveal her origin, but she told Okahachiro the secret of the black ball in full, on the grounds that revealing the "plot" would not be a violation.

The 'aliens' are indeed real aliens, not made by black balls.

Their real purpose is to sneak into the earth, slowly assimilate the earthlings and finally achieve the purpose of control. The so-called black balls are from more advanced alien technology, and their purpose is to protect the earthlings.

There is something even more ridiculous, that is, the people chosen by the black ball have died once. And the most advanced technology controlled by him is complete cloning, and the resurrected people are actually just copies with memories, which makes Okahachiro terrified when he thinks about it.

Okahachiro was indeed resurrected once, but he had no gratitude towards the person who resurrected him. They were resurrected to ensure the strength of the team.

The person who resurrected Okahachiro is now dead, and Okahachiro has no intention of repaying his gratitude.

So now I am a clone?

No, maybe it was a clone from the beginning, because the original body was dead. As she said, all of this was quietly managed by the government behind the scenes.

This was confirmed by Shimodaira Reika. She had heard from Tokyo team's strongest player, Kei Kurono, that there was a woman named Kishimoto Megumi in the team. Shimodaira Reika didn't know what happened after that... but the woman in front of her told her the subsequent story.

Kishimoto Megumi was chosen after committing suicide, but the funniest thing is that she failed to commit suicide. After the mission was completed, she returned home and found another self...

Then, she asked the most crucial question.

Do you want to live in battle forever, or do you want to leave? If you want to keep getting stronger, then you are overthinking. The most powerful weapon given to you by Black Ball Technology is at most your mecha.

You have won eight championships, and there is no weapon stronger than the mecha in the exchange list.

To be honest, Okahachiro was convinced because she was right. He exchanged for the mecha after getting the sixth full score, but the next two full scores did not result in a stronger weapon.

I learned from her that this world is an experiment, controlled by something more advanced than the black ball civilization. Perhaps the black balls are their product.

The monsters will become stronger and stronger, and your weapons have a limit. Sooner or later, you will die in battle again...

So, Okahachiro chose to carry out the task she assigned with a skeptical attitude.

After becoming invisible, he sneaked into the military base, heard the old man giving the order to annihilate the entire group, and heard his conversation with his subordinates with his own ears, confirming that it was indeed the Sly Ghost.

But what still made him hesitant was that the woman in front of him was too cruel.

Just suspecting that the black ball would keep the fire, she planned to wipe out everyone including the Osaka team, and she almost succeeded if the monsters hadn't targeted them first.

And her next plan of how to solve the problem of Nura: The Demon in the military, made Okahachiro's world view completely changed.

Even though he had been through many battles, he could not imagine how a person could be so cruel...

"Are you wondering why I'm so cruel?"

The girl seemed to understand his gaze and smiled again, "Because I'm not cruel, we are the ones who will die. Besides, one of us has already died in the battle. He kept calling me the big sister all day long, so you can just consider him as my little brother. I don't actually have deep feelings for him, but my wife likes him very much, so I feel a little angry when he died."

Okahachiro stared at the girl with his cloudy eyes, and his voice suddenly became a little hoarse, "That's... more than 8 million people..."

"More than eight million?"

Yukino shook her head slightly and explained in a cold tone: "Starting from the northwest, the circular encirclement to the southwest border is about 300 square kilometers, covering the most prosperous areas. Let's say the population is one million, which I think is too much. After all, the entire Osaka Prefecture covers 1900 square kilometers, and some people are fleeing here."

"Believe me, I have seen more dead people and controlled more corpses. There are far more than eight million. I haven't counted the exact number. All the living beings added up, probably hundreds of millions."

Okahachiro's eyes became a little confused.

Although he has experienced several life and death situations, he still has not lost his humanity. He works during the day and goes on missions to hunt "aliens" at night. He comes into contact with colleagues, friends and everything in life every day.

One million? One hundred million?

"Life, in your eyes... is just a number?"

"What else? When have you ever cared about the lives of your teammates? The lives of millions of people are lives, but one person is not a life? It seems to me that you are just scared by the numbers."

Xue No smiled and said, "You can choose to be a hero. In fact, we don't really need you now. Let me continue to explain the situation to you. It's just that I think your mecha will be needed in the next battle."

"I think you have a clear understanding of our strength. For example, you are only wearing a reinforced suit now, but I can easily kill you. And your mecha is just a layer of insurance for the team."

The parade was moving away, but suddenly, a woman with blood words written on her headscarf approached at the end of the team and handed over two leaflets.

The woman was probably in her thirties. Her haggard face and swollen eyelids obscured her remaining charm. She was one of the victim's family members.

The night before yesterday, her husband and his colleagues drank and socialized at a pub on Dotonbori Street after get off work. The day before yesterday was exactly when the monster ran rampant. But the government hid the news, and the public only learned the truth when the military blocked the area and could no longer cover it up.

Until now, the woman's husband is still missing, and there is no need to ask about his fate...

Okahachiro took the flyer numbly. The woman bowed deeply and then looked at Yukino.

But she glanced and turned her head sharply to look at Okahachiro again, staring at the energy bead of the enhanced suit exposed on his neck with her mouth wide open in astonishment.

"you……"

"laugh……"

A blue light flashed by, and the woman was startled, then she fell limply into Yukino's arms. But a few seconds later, a blue light floated out from her head and was absorbed into the girl's body.

The woman whose heart was pierced instantly stood up straight again and followed the parade woodenly.

"Ninety-eighth."

Xueno said calmly, "We are still short of two souls."

Yes, two more to go.

Yukino can precisely control ten undead puppets. Although she can sense them, she cannot precisely control the rest. Until yesterday, after confirming that the high-ranking military leader was Nura, she settled Shimohira Reika and the others and started killing people.

They started killing in the direction of Dotonbori, killing one every few kilometers and transforming them into a scourge of undead. Up to now, including the woman just now, ninety-eight had been killed.

No need for the Helm of Domination, this is the effect of the Death Necromancer spell, the power of the Scourge. The Observer took back the Lich King's powerful power, but allowed her to continue using it and learn that ability.

"Two short?"

Okahachiro woke up from his daze, "Next target..."

"It's three kilometers from here, to the Tsutenkaku scenic area. Time is running out, and I can't control so many puppets at the same time. I can only switch back and forth between them, otherwise they will act on instinct."

As soon as Yukino finished speaking, the young woman who had just been transformed caused a commotion. She hugged one of her companions and was about to bite him, but she immediately calmed down when her lips touched the other's neck.

The 'victim' screamed and attracted the attention of everyone around him. Some people even started to run away. After all, the news that the monster was hiding among the people had spread like wildfire, and everyone was worried.

The young woman was immediately controlled, and a few brave young men threw her down. But she burst out with a strength that ordinary people could not understand, and quickly threw those young men away, then ran into the crowd and disappeared.

"There's no time."

A blue light flashed in Yukino's pupils, and she raised her leg and walked towards the south.

Okahachiro looked at the girl's slim back and fell into deep thought. He did not catch up until she was about to disappear. Then he took a deep breath and quickly followed her.

As expected, he still didn't want to die. Before he knew the truth, he could arrogantly say that almost no monster could compete with him, so he could enjoy the pleasure of killing cautiously and happily.

She did want to kill herself before, but her plan had been exposed, and she explained the reason very straightforwardly. But killing herself now did not seem to mean much to them.

She was right. If you don't do it, you can't survive. This applies to both them and the 'chosen ones' controlled by the black ball. There are only three people left in the Tokyo team. Not only do they have no weapons, but even their enhanced suits are useless.

Osaka was the only one left on the team. With all her teammates dead, she couldn't kill all the monsters in the large area, let alone wipe them out. She could only rely on her method, and would rather kill someone by mistake than let them go!

So now, even if she is in danger, he has no choice but to continue following her.

It is impossible to continue hiding in the dark. She must still be lying. My role is definitely more than just a mecha. Although I don’t know what her real purpose is, I can always escape in the last step.

Moreover, they got the most crucial information. That is, their goal seemed to be to protect the members of the Tokyo team. If Shimohira Reika and the other two were killed, it might bring them unbearable consequences.

After meeting the members of the Tokyo team, he had already installed micro bombs on them. He could easily kill them instantly with just a flick of his finger. This was one of the reasons why he was so fearless.

Their origins are too mysterious, and as human beings they possess more powerful powers than monsters.

Although Muroya Yushin and his group of idiots also died under this ambition, it was indeed too tempting. The power of gods and demons, the unpredictable ability... He could even easily defeat five fighter planes with his own strength!

……

The two walked one after the other on the noisy street, their pace getting faster and faster, from walking to jogging, and from jogging to running.

After about ten minutes, the girl stopped.

Slides, artificial lakes, benches, children's beaches... This is a very ordinary park. It should have been popular before, but now it is empty. Most people have participated in the parade or hid at home. At this critical time, no one would think of taking a walk in the park.

So, what was her purpose in bringing me here?

Okahachiro became alert. He frowned and looked around at the empty environment. He asked in confusion: "This place is still one kilometer away from Tsutenkaku."

"I know."

Xueno's dark pupils were suddenly replaced by a deep blue. She nodded with a cold expression, "It's out of control now. The natural disaster puppets are starting to run wild. Forget it, let it be."

"that's it?"

The girl's words made Okahachiro relax his guard a little, but he kept his hands on his waist. Only when he touched the gun could he feel completely at ease.

"The plague is now spreading, and the entire Osaka Prefecture will fall within 24 hours."

Yukino glanced at Okahachiro and said, "I know your ultimate goal. You are eager to get some secrets from me, and your vigilance towards me has never diminished. So, please don't stay too far away from me in the future..."

"My puppets don't rely on smell or vision to find prey. They are undead and rely on their perception of life. The stealth effect of your enhanced suit or power mecha is useless... Now I start to cast spells to make them go berserk."

After Yukino finished speaking, without waiting for Okahachiro's reaction, she raised her hand and the ice shield popped out of her body. When he saw her perform a new spell, although Okahachiro had a cold face, a hint of curiosity flashed in his pupils.

Suddenly, she closed her eyes, held her hands flat, and a ball of white light emerged from the palm of each hand.

But at this moment, she opened her thin lips slightly, and a cold voice came out from her throat, "You remembered it wrong... It's not ninety-eight souls, the one just now was ninety-nine."

Suddenly, Okahachiro's pupils shrank suddenly, and he subconsciously took out the pistol from his waist and prepared to escape. But at this moment, the girl's palm suddenly pushed towards him.

"Om-"

The compressed air gun made a buzzing sound, and the ice body shield shook violently, then faded in an instant and dissipated into the air.

But at the same time, Okahachiro's pupils were obviously dull. He wanted to take out the bomb remote control, but he couldn't do it no matter what... He lost control of his body.

"Mea~~~"

A cute sheep cry was heard, and when I looked down, there was no trace of Okahachiro, only a fat sheep standing there stupidly.

"You know what? Mr. Okahachiro... Actually, there is no need to go through so much trouble. Everything I show and do is intentionally done for you to see, including asking you to accompany me everywhere."

Transfiguration, the mage's signature skill, feels pretty good when used for the first time.

"I know. I know you planted bombs on the three of them. I also know that you only need to move your fingers to detonate them."

The cruel and ruthless girl took a step and slowly walked towards the sheep. "Thank you very much for confirming the key information for me... But I can't repay you. After all, my plan still needs to be implemented."

A cold light flashed in the girl's hand, and Frostmourne appeared in her hand.

Despicable, shameless, cruel, cold-blooded... She perfectly demonstrated the spirit of destroying the bridge after crossing it.

"Since you can kill them just by moving your fingers, why don't you have fingers..."
