"Hey, eat bread?"

Iino was stunned for a moment and turned his gaze to Gu Mingji Jue.

"Yes, that's right. I bought a big long loaf of butter bread, but it took me a long time to finish it. So I wasted some time."

Gu Mingdijue smiled lightly as he said this, and Lin Yi's expression became even more embarrassed.

Is this what Xiaowu’s personality is like?

It's an indescribable feeling to mention this kind of thing in front of other girls.

"Hmm, I see..."

Iino did not ask any further questions.

This kind of confusing answer should not have fooled her, but for some reason, after getting this answer, the girl did not continue asking questions. She just sat on the stool with a pensive expression, and no one knew what she was thinking about.

Tanjiro and Suzuran had already woken up, and simply ate some breakfast brought by Lin Yi. They briefly exchanged relevant information with each other for a while, and then Tanjiro seemed to have received a message from the Demon Slayer Corps and left for a while. Then after a while, Uncle Lin, who looked a little tired, came down, sat down on the seat, stretched his shoulders, and yawned before he woke up a little.

"Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Lin. Do you want to take a rest?"

Seeing that the other party looked a little tired, Lin Yi kindly asked.

"No, it's not time to rest yet. This problem is bigger than we thought."

Uncle Lin shook his head, and glanced at Lin Yi who was sitting in the room, as well as Iino, Komeiji Kakui, and Suzuran who was looking at him curiously. His gaze quickly returned to Lin Yi with a sharp look.

These girls all seem to have a connection with this man.

It wasn’t very clear yesterday, but today when these girls got together, the feeling became obvious.

Forget it… I don’t understand the love life of young people myself, so just let him be.

Uncle Lin frowned again and again, but finally relaxed his brows, put aside the private matters of the family, and focused on the next important matter.

"We have indeed located the position of the controller, but something is wrong."

After taking a sip of the tea brought by Linglan, Uncle Lin's expression became serious.

Although the disappearance of the black zombie and the white arm last night brought great backlash to the manipulator behind the scenes, so that the control of the bloody wedding dress female corpse failed and the contractual connection between them was interrupted. However, in order to control these corpse monsters, the manipulator left his own blood inside the three corpses, and Uncle Lin used this thing to find and locate the other party.

He did find the other party's whereabouts, in an old apartment building to be demolished near the southern suburbs.

However, the sensation transmitted by the heart blood positioning was very wrong.

Uncle Lin couldn't describe it. What he felt from the response from his heart blood was a bloodthirsty impulse that was definitely not human, but a madness that almost annihilated humanity and self. The controller of the corpse monster seemed to have completely turned into a monster, no longer conscious, and no one knew what had happened.

But this is not the crux of the problem. The key point is that when you want to have a deeper positioning, the positioning you have worked hard on becomes ineffective.

Some kind of change has occurred in the opponent's body. From the cells to the blood, and even the soul itself, alienation has occurred. It has become a monster that is not human. Therefore, the original positioning can no longer be used, and the opponent's position can no longer be found.

This situation shocked Uncle Lin. Even if a person becomes a zombie or a ghost, there are always some things that will not change. But the controller seemed to have completely transformed from a life form into something else, so that it was completely different from the original existence, and his blood positioning just caught the other party's transformation process.

Uncle Lin did not hesitate to use the technique to trigger the thunderbolt, hoping to strike the opponent with the last position of the positioning. Unexpectedly, his plan failed to come true. Although the technique of triggering the thunderbolt was successful, it could not find the opponent's position. He could clearly feel that the opponent had transformed into some kind of twisted foreign object that could not be melted by the heaven and earth before the last positioning was disconnected. He could have used the thunderbolt to destroy it, but the technique failed. This means that the enemy was not only transformed into a foreign object, but also that the rules of the foreign object itself did not belong to this world. It was something that was difficult to distinguish by the rules of the native world.

Coming from outside the world, and considering the various situations before, it can be basically determined that the other party is an evolver. After all, if it is a member of a certain evil god sect, the reaction to the interruption of the savior is different from the current situation.

Considering that the problems in this world have existed for a long time, and have only now gradually fermented to the point where they will be noticed by the Savior System, Uncle Lin realized a possibility.

“This may be a [casino] that is under construction.”

Uncle Lin spoke softly, but the expression on his face looked extremely heavy.

"Casino? Is it the kind of casino I imagined?"

Lin Yi frowned and asked.

"The situation in this world may have been specially cultivated by the Evolver System for the purpose of conducting gambling."

Uncle Lin didn't keep anyone in suspense and gave the answer directly.

The Evolver System is completely different from the Savior System. It is essentially a system of horrible beings that are in opposition to orderly civilization and play for fun. Their main daily routine is to play various gambling games based on [civilization].

This system will place selected evolvers in different worlds, allowing them to plunder the resources of these worlds and fight against the dangers that exist in these worlds. These bloody fights are part of the daily life of the evolver system, and are also the Shura realm that the evolvers of lower status cannot escape day after day.

However, slightly higher-level evolvers who have already reached a certain level will receive more benefits and be responsible for more tasks. For example, one of them is responsible for cultivating a [casino] for the evolver system, establishing a suitable environment in the selected civilization, and providing venue conditions for the subsequent gambling.

The evil spirit area in the southern suburbs has existed for more than ten years.

For a full ten years, the resentment of the entire world has gathered under the operation of some force, converging here into a terrifying world, but it has never completely gotten out of control. It is very likely that this is a [casino] run and cultivated by a team of evolvers.

These evolvers will intentionally control the size and development speed of the ghost den, and deliberately cultivate individuals with powerful strength, such as the black zombies, and then when the time is right, they will release the things in the ghost den, causing the entire planet to fall into a crisis of destruction. At that time, when the [Casino] is completed, whether it is throwing the evolvers in to watch them struggle to survive in the land of death, or inviting the rescuers and the evolvers to fight each other, it can become endless fun for those behind the scenes.

"A casino cultivated by the Evolvers..."

Lin Yi frowned deeply.

"There is actually such a thing. Those Evolvers and that Evolver system are really..."

Lily of the Valley clenched her fists and her tail swung slightly in displeasure. It was obvious that she couldn't accept this situation.

"In other words, the Evolver System did not build the [Casino] itself, but instead instructed the Evolvers who were deceived by it into signing a contract and becoming slaves to build the [Casino]? It seems like a banker who pays great attention to making the best use of everything. It sounds quite disgusting."

Gu Mingji Jue's focus was different. He casually commented on the Evolver System, which was in direct opposition to the Savior System and had been fighting against each other for who knows how many years.

"No matter what, what we have to do now will not change, that is to destroy this dangerous area and kill those evolvers who are causing trouble—"

Lin Yi made his final statement and then prepared to continue discussing combat issues.

Jingle Bell--

The crisp ring of the telephone suddenly rang at this moment, interrupting Lin Yi's unfinished words.

While the rescuers here were discussing the problem, on the other side, on the roof of a tall building, the Water Pillar Tomioka Giyuu stood calmly, waiting without saying a word, until Tanjiro pushed open the door to the rooftop and walked in, then he opened his eyes and turned to look at him.

Tanjiro, who had already stepped in, stopped. He did not greet Giyu Tomioka and his fellow senior brother from the same school immediately. Instead, his face changed after smelling something in the air, and he subconsciously grabbed the hilt of the sword.

“It’s not here anymore.”

It was not until Giyuu's cold voice sounded that Tanjiro noticed that there was no place for anyone to hide here, and that the smell was actually about to dissipate.

"Mr. Tomioka, this smell is like a ghost..."

Tanjiro walked to the side of Tomioka Giyuu and looked at the pool of blood on the ground with a complicated expression. As the angle of direct sunlight changed, the blood was gradually illuminated and began to slowly dissipate.

Ghost blood.

If other people mentioned ghost blood, it might be a secondary derivative of some ghost body, or the blood of a big and generous little guy who can drink a lot, or of course it might be the blood of a number one sister who is often banned or something like that.

However, as a member of the Demon Slayer Corps, the "demon blood" mentioned by Tanjiro can only refer to one thing.

"Yeah, that's right."

Tomioka Giyu, who had already given the blood to the doctor of the Demon Slayer Corps for identification, nodded slightly, his face still expressionless, but with a hint of murderous intent in his pupils.

I didn't expect that I would meet you so soon.

Perhaps, this is what is called destiny?

Chapter D-22: It's Noon

The evolvers dispatched by the Evolution System create anomalies in secret, slowly transforming the world into a dangerous and deadly environment, thereby creating a casino that is convenient for gambling. This is one of the tasks of the Evolution System.

Of course, there is no salary for the evolvers who do this kind of work. The only reward they can get is that they will participate in fewer [gambling games] than other evolvers, so they can be relatively safer.

However, when a world gradually changes from a safe state to a dangerous state and begins to threaten the survival of the original civilization, the savior system is likely to detect anomalies, and the saviors following closely will become a more serious danger. After all, saviors are endless, and can even be said to be immortal. Formal savior missions are easy to say, but saviors in volunteer missions are endless, especially those veteran saviors who have participated in many missions. Basically, if you kill one, there will be a group of saviors following.

So what can the evolvers do when faced with such a situation?

"Has the teleportation function started to fail?"

Lin Yi tried to bring in a pencil from the community, but not only did he fail to bring in the pencil, he also almost failed to successfully return to the mission world. The expression on his face looked a little ugly.

Those evolvers held a [gambling game].

Lin Yi, Iino, Komeiji Kaku, Suzuran, Uncle Lin, and Tanjiro who was not in the teahouse for the time being. All the saviors who were still in the mission world at this time were judged to be participants in the next gambling game, a life-and-death battle between the Evolvers and the Saviors.

As an Evolver system that can directly confront the Savior System, once the bet is held, the Savior System can no longer provide any support to the Saviors. It can only guarantee that even if they lose the bet, they will not really die, and can be resurrected in the community. Therefore, the external aid that Lin Yi found in the morning and the friends he notified could no longer enter this mission world at this time. Even if they wanted to bring anything in from the outside world, they were not allowed to do so. They had to bring only Lin Yi himself as a participant and the things he had brought into the mission world before the bet began.

The official start of this gambling game began when Uncle Lin realized the situation in this world. When the truth was revealed, the Evolutionary System determined that both parties had reached the stage to start the gambling game, so it began to exert its power.

The chat panel couldn't be used at this time, but the location of Tanjiro could still be determined. He was on his way back, so the situation should be good. In a sense, the current situation was equivalent to a formal rescue mission, the only difference was that the system assistant could still appear in a self-contained form.

The only possible outcome of the gambling game is a life-or-death struggle. So either the Savior will eliminate all the Evolvers and destroy this unfinished casino. Or, the Evolvers will eliminate the Saviors present, and then the world will completely turn into a sneaky carnival place, and the civilization of this world will probably never get help from the Savior system again.

Obviously, after the failure of last night's attack, these evolvers realized that the situation was unfavorable and decided to fight them to the death.

"If this is the case, the situation will probably be quite bad."

Lin Yi sighed slightly and began to think about the various possibilities that might follow.

"The game won't be one-sided in an absolute sense, so even if those evolvers are prepared, we won't be at a big disadvantage. So now we must be ready and not get into a skirmish like last night. Come with me, I'll cast some simple protective spells for you."

Uncle Lin stood up and motioned Lin Yi and others to follow him.

The group returned to the room upstairs where Uncle Lin placed his magic tools. This time, Uncle Lin bought a few big roosters, killed them and bled them, and made two new rolls of ink lines. Then he took out the dew, cast a spell and poured it on Lin Yi and Ling Lan, giving them a certain amount of protection so that they would have a stronger ability to protect themselves when they encounter dangerous sneaky things. Because Gu Mingji Jue is a monster and different from humans, and Iino himself is also inhuman, he was not protected by Uncle Lin's magic, but because the latter's physical strength is not enough, the next action can only be assisted in a virtual form.

Without stopping, Uncle Lin drew a bunch of spells. These spells were oozing with Uncle Lin's own blood, and they consumed his strength. Under normal circumstances, drawing twenty or thirty spells would consume Uncle Lin to the point where he could no longer continue. However, as a savior, Uncle Lin would not risk his life to death, so after drawing the spells for a while, he took out a few pills and swallowed them. The vitality that had been depleted in his body was quickly replenished, and he easily completed hundreds of spells.

"Are there two colors of these talismans?"

Lily of the Valley blinked and noticed that Uncle Lin's talismans were divided into two types, yellow and purple. There were very few purple talismans, only a dozen or so.

"The power of the talisman is borrowed, and you need to pay a certain price. The darker the color of the talisman, the more power it borrows from heaven and earth, which means the greater the price you pay. Therefore, you cannot use talismans that are too dark in color casually, as it will cause great damage to your body."

Uncle Lin gave the talisman paper to Lin Yi and Ling Lan respectively. Iino also got some. Gu Mingji Jue did not take the talisman. As a monster, she has some similarities with sneaky and evil things. If this talisman really touches her, it will cause harm, so there is no way to use the power of this talisman.

"Can't this talisman itself distinguish between good and bad?"

Lin Yi felt helpless about this situation.

"The talisman itself is just a tool. The only people who can judge good and evil are you and me who have the ability to think."

Uncle Lin then performed a ritual. He carved a spell on a paper umbrella and carried it with him. He also brought various magical instruments such as glutinous rice, peach wood sword, willow leaves, copper coin sword, etc. He also took the bronze mirror and the five elements formation with him. It was obvious that this was to prepare for the situation where he would not have time to prepare the magical instruments in case of another encounter.

Although Tanjiro has not returned yet, Uncle Lin has left a copy of the talisman he prepared for him to use for self-defense.

In fact, the boy was already on his way back to the teahouse.

He ran quickly on the road, intending to get back to the teahouse as soon as possible and explain what he had learned to everyone in person.

Everyone must be made aware of this matter.

Mr. Lin Yi and the others must be made aware of this matter!

They have reappeared.

Those extremely cruel beings have lost the humanity they once possessed and have become pathetic monsters.

Those that have disappeared without a trace, whose whereabouts are unknown, and whose existence has caused harm and destruction nowhere.

They have reappeared.

Right here in this world, right here in this city.

I don't know why the system transmission is not working, and there is no way to use the chat panel to send messages to other people. I don't know what happened, but it is definitely not good news. So I must act as soon as possible and meet up with Mr. Lin Yi and the others.

Taking a step forward, no longer trying to hide his extraordinary speed, the boy zipped through the streets at an incredibly fast speed, leaving passers-by dumbfounded.

It’s getting closer and will be here soon.

He turned slightly, walked through a shadowy alley, and moved forward quickly. He could already see the teahouse at the end of the alley.

We will be able to meet up with Mr. Lin Yi soon, and the next step is -

The step he took suddenly stopped the next moment.

when!

In an instant, the Sun Blade, swung out instinctively, collided with the blood-red Bone Scythe.

Everything happened in the blink of an eye, without even time to think, the blade and the bone sickle collided several times in mid-air.

The huge force pushed the boy back and one side of his clothes was torn open, just a millimeter away from cutting his skin.

"You are--"

The young man holding the Nichirin Sword tightly took a deep breath and looked at the figure that suddenly appeared in front of him and launched an attack.

Smell it.

The scent that was stronger than ever before belonged to that person.

Such suffocating and cold terrible malice almost freezes the body.

"You are... an upper-rank demon?"
