Tanjiro threw a flash bomb.

The violently vibrating light, accompanied by a loud noise, instantly spread to the entire corridor.

The crying sound stopped for a moment, and the young man swung his sword and slashed fiercely in the darkness.

Bang!

The clear touch allowed Tanjiro to be sure that he had hit something.

However, it was not cut off.

It seemed to be something with strong flexibility. When the blade cut it, the opponent bent along with it and changed along the cutting direction of the blade. Therefore, it would not be damaged by the Nichirin Sword and thus avoided harm.

A little troublesome.

The Foxfire's domain seems unable to completely restrict this kind of thing. The other party is not a purely physical existence, but contains something else.

Is that... the smell of blood?

The smell of blood, not particularly clear but rather subtle, is hidden on this thing.

If it was another savior, it would be difficult to distinguish the smell, but Tanjiro has a strong sense of smell, and he noticed something unusual in the other person's smell during the initial fight. Considering that the other person was a physical being but could ignore Suzuran's Foxfire Domain and even create a Dark Domain, the boy couldn't help but think about the connection between them.

「Wu……wu……」

The crying was approaching in the darkness.

Sensing the danger, the young boy raised his sword to defend himself, but was knocked away by a huge force and hit the concrete wall behind him. The force was so great that Tanjiro spit out blood.

[Wuwu…wuwu…]

In a flash, the crying sound seemed to have reached another angle and appeared directly beside the boy.

He turned around without any hesitation and swung out the Sun Blade.

The red sword had already been activated at this time, but the fiery red color could not penetrate the darkness to allow the boy to regain his vision. With a heavy "bang" sound, Tanjiro once again felt that he had hit something, and the opponent once again moved and deformed along his blade, completely ignoring the damage this time.

Normal attacks have no effect.

In this case……

「Wuwuwu……wuwu……」

The crying sound came closer again.

Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Tanjiro stepped back suddenly and retreated to the outside of the bathroom in the corridor the next moment.

Then, at the moment when the crying sound came in, Tanjiro suddenly flashed into the bathroom, jumped up with one step, and the Nichirin Sword suddenly slashed to the side of his body, directly cutting the faucet of the sink.

The next moment, the splashing water splashed directly onto the thing.

The crying sound suddenly became shrill, and the smell of blood, which was not very obvious to begin with, quickly dissipated at this moment, and the dark environment around them gradually became brighter at this moment.

[The God of Fire Kagura: Sunset Turns! ]

At the same time, Tanjiro suddenly turned around in mid-air and slashed fiercely with a knife.

The lights in the entire corridor were completely lit up at this moment.

At this moment, the boy saw what he had chopped off, a piece of... a woman's skin...

[Wow…thank you…thank you…]

The severed human skin fell to the ground and quickly rotted and collapsed.

"Well, rest in peace..."

Watching the other person disappear, Tanjiro sighed softly, then walked out of the bathroom and quickly returned to the door of the ward.

The exorcism ritual had reached the final step at this moment, successfully removing the spirit from Zhang Yuan's body and trapping him in another jar and sealing it with talisman paper.

On a tall building not far away, as all the creatures he controlled were destroyed, the man who suffered the backlash vomited blood several times and looked in a very bad state.

The time had unknowingly passed nine o'clock in the evening and was gradually approaching the late night.

While the situation on this side was going smoothly for the time being, in the southern suburbs, in a strange space that was no longer in the real world, the drones controlled by Lin Yi, Jianzi and Iino had arrived at the first floor entrance of the commercial building.

The world ahead is bustling with people coming and going, as if it is really a world of commercial buildings.

Outside the gate, in the deserted, dark and dilapidated street, there were only two living people and a drone standing there. Apart from that, there was only endless gloom and darkness.

"Are you ready?"

Lin Yi looked at the girl beside him and asked.

"Ah."

Jianzi nodded slightly, his expression looking very determined.

"Okay, then, get in cover!"

Then, Lin Yi made a move to enter the building and threw a heavy bomb directly at the building in front.

Chapter D-13: Escape · Hour of the Pig

Under normal circumstances, it is normal to complete a mission, go to a place, enter a new area, and explore it.

After all, this is the standard process, whether it is in games or movies.

But there's no reason to play by the enemy's rules, right?

Following the routines arranged by the opponent, stepping into extremely dangerous places where the specific situation is unknown, responding to abnormal situations that were not prepared in advance, and acting passively. To be honest, is this really necessary?

Given a choice, whether to follow the enemy's rhythm or one's own rhythm, Lin Yi thinks this is a question worth serious consideration.

Because of this, the choice he made was very straightforward, which was to use his own rhythm to forcibly interrupt the enemy's rhythm.

boom!

The sound of a violent explosion swept through in an instant, and flames instantly engulfed the entire building.

After Iino confirmed in advance that there were no living people in the building, Lin Yi directly adopted the most drastic measures.

The air waves blew out in all directions, and with burning flames, they covered a large area.

The structure of the building collapsed instantly amidst the intense burning light, and the people who were originally chatting and laughing inside became distorted at this moment, as if they were just a video being played, and became chaotic because the structure of the building was damaged.

felt it.

Lin Yi closed his eyes and clearly captured the traces of energy flow at this moment.

At the moment when the building was destroyed, the girl summoned the dragon hunting armor without hesitation and retreated to avoid the attack. Lin Yi stood directly on the spot, using his body to bear the violent explosion of fire, and at this moment directly activated the resonance ability.

puff-

The flow of energy was completely controlled by Lin Yi's consciousness at this moment.

At this moment, by controlling the flow of energy generated by the explosion, Lin Yi clearly felt the twisting power of the sneaky objects entangled in the entire building, as well as the [field] formed by their power, which absorbed the surrounding energy and reduced its activity.

Faced with the resonance ability that is difficult to use under normal circumstances, Lin Yi has thought of many solutions, and one of the tricks that he thinks is very effective is to create a large-scale energy flow on the spot, and then use the resonance manipulation of these energies to achieve larger-scale energy mobilization to affect those energy sources that cannot be directly contacted for various reasons, and then completely pull the situation to his side.

Just like now, Lin Yi's thinking accelerated and he almost completely controlled the situation in the entire high-rise building. He saw the layout of each floor, the murderous intentions hidden in them, and those who seemed to be ordinary people but had actually all turned into ferocious ghosts.

If I really walked in, the structure of the entire building would be disrupted, and Jianzi and I would be on different floors. Moreover, these evil spirits were extremely ferocious and powerful. Even if we didn't communicate with them, their power could directly reduce the energy activity of Jianzi and me. I could resist them, but Jianzi might suffer from cardiac arrest or brain disorder during the fight. Moreover, because the spatial structure inside the building had changed, even using brute force to break through might not be able to get out of the building.

"I almost got into trouble, but I already paid the price the last time I entered the building. I won't do it again."

As Lin Yi said this, his fingers clenched tightly in an instant.

The tall building in front was torn apart on the spot by the violent energy fluctuations, and the sneaky objects inside and the building itself were crushed by Lin Yi on the spot.

In this way, can we break through this sneaky area in the southern suburbs?

Lin Yi closed his eyes and tried to sense it again, but found that there was no change in the abnormality of this building area.

Isn't this the key point of the formation?

No, he could feel that this was the central hub of energy flow, and he had indeed disrupted the energy flow here. This place should have shown signs of being affected no matter what, instead of this strange state where it seemed to be completely unaffected.

Did I miss something?

Lin Yi released his perception and continued to explore the theoretical center of the formation in front of him before the energy caused by the explosion completely dissipated.

Then, in an instant, he sensed something extremely cold, which almost froze his senses.

"Underground..."

Before his consciousness was eroded by the coldness, Lin Yi exited the state of energy resonance in time.

And it was at this moment that the building that had been blown up reappeared and returned to its original appearance in the dissipating smoke and dust.

The commercial building is brightly lit and seems to be very busy.

However, this time, Lin Yi and Jianzi no longer heard the noisy sounds of the crowd.

In the building illuminated by the light, one expressionless person after another was staring at Lin Yi outside the building, and Jianzi and the other person who had walked out again.

Everything was quiet. In the silence, Lin Yi saw those people who were looking at him begin to rot one after another. Their bodies festered, and they became hunched and emaciated from their original normal appearance. Then, they twisted into postures that were impossible for humans. They were as twisted and terrifying as raging demons, and they remained silent all the time. They just stood in the building, in front of the window, on the roof, and in all places where they could see the two of them, just staring at them.

silence.

All sounds disappeared completely, leaving only absolute silence.

"Senior, there are more and more things gathering nearby."

Jianzi, who could obviously see more than Lin Yi, spoke in a low voice. He could feel that she was quite nervous. He was afraid that the things around them could not be simply described as "many". Lin Yi suspected that they were now completely surrounded.

"...let's go."

After a brief thought, Lin Yi made a decision.

"Hey, let's just go?"

Unexpectedly, Lin Yi, who had just been so bold as to detonate the bomb, would now decide to retreat. Jianzi blinked and was a little confused for a moment.

"Retreat immediately. Our mission is just a test. Now we have confirmed that the problem is underground, not on the ground. This is enough. If we continue to test, it will be time for a real fight. After all, we don't have enough personnel here. It will be disadvantageous for us to start a war rashly. Now Iino has also confirmed the route of entry, so retreat."

Lin Yi said this and took the lead to retreat back the way he came.

And at the moment he took action, the people who were watching him in the entire commercial high-rise building exploded one after another, turning into countless blood mists, turning the entire building into a gloomy blood-red building.

Those people standing on the roof jumped down directly and shattered into meat paste on the ground. The meat paste began to wriggle, and something began to emerge from it, chasing Lin Yi and Jianzi and rushing up.

bang bang bang-

The anti-spiritual bullets engraved with special patterns were fired continuously at this moment, but they failed to have sufficient effect.

Lin Yi realized that after being connected with the huge ghost den in the southern suburbs, these sneaky creatures might have become immortal. No matter what method was used, they could only be temporarily repelled or dispersed, and they would be able to recover again in a short time.

"Do we have to destroy the [field] in the southern suburbs to eliminate them? This mission is really troublesome. Jianzi, don't fight to the end. We have to retreat faster."

Lin Yi said as he quickened his pace, ready to take Jianzi away as soon as possible, but then he heard a thunderous explosion, and the girl next to him was completely wrapped in the huge armor that suddenly appeared, turning into a dragon hunting armor, and grabbed Lin Yi's shoulders and carried him directly on her shoulders.

[Senior, my system assistant runs faster, let me do it]

The girl's slightly dull voice sounded from the armor, and then the dragon hunting armor moved forward at full speed, directly stepping out a dent in the ground, and sprinting away from the strange shadow behind with Lin Yi on her back at an extremely fast speed.

Uh, does this count as being taken care of?

Lin Yi, who was lying on the back of the dragon hunting armor, blinked, and then he roughly understood the current situation.

From being timid at the beginning to being like this now, Jianzi, this child's growth is really amazing...

It would be great if his system assistant could be half as cool as the dragon hunting armor. Unfortunately, not only is Iino not cool, he often embarrasses himself because of his personality. Apart from his network control ability, he is just a little punching bag who is easy to bully.

[I always feel like you are thinking about something very rude, Mr. Lin Yi]

Iino's voice with a hint of doubt sounded in Lin Yi's ears, but Lin Yi just laughed and then stopped talking.

In the silence all around, something dark began to approach.

However, the dragon hunter armor wielded the giant axe wrapped in golden thunder and chopped continuously, almost crushing everything in front of it with a series of terrifying explosions, so that those abominable creatures had no real chance to get close, and Lin Yi and Jianzi successfully escaped.

In the dark and dilapidated city, golden flashes appeared again and again, which was quite eye-catching.

At this speed, it was only a matter of time to get out of the abnormal area in the southern suburbs. No matter how strange these sneaky things were, their individual strength was far from enough. And those things that could really pose a threat, located in the commercial building, seemed unable to leave for some reason. As a result, Lin Yi and Jianzi fled the southern suburbs cleanly and returned to the brightly lit human world to reunite with their companions.

During the retreat, Lin Yi seemed to sense something and turned his head to look somewhere in the darkness.

He felt a pair of eyes watching him, but was unable to find the other person's true identity.

It was not until Lin Yi and Jianzi completely left Nanjiao that a figure slowly stepped out from the roof of a dilapidated building.

"Very cautious... did not rush into anything... was a difficult enemy to deal with..."

The man muttering to himself was wearing a kimono and a ponytail, his posture like an old-fashioned samurai.
