"But, a disease that prevents you from seeing the sun... feels weird, doesn't it?"

"Like the vampires in the novels?"

The other young man was thoughtful.

"I heard that ghosts can't see the sun... Could it be..."

The Demon Slayer Corps is not particularly well-known among the public, but some people have still heard of their deeds.

"We are Yan people, how can there be ghosts there? Nonsense."

My companions disagreed.

"..."

He does not mean that.

A man in a suit with a pale face who was passing by them suddenly stopped.

"Bring me a newspaper."

The man handed the newsstand owner a coin and looked at it eagerly.

To anyone who looked at him, he looked like an elite white-collar worker.

But the more he looked, the more rapid his breathing became.

"Blue Bana..."

"To treat fear of sunlight..."

Familiar, so familiar!

If he had begun to doubt the authenticity of the blue spider lily due to years of unsuccessful pursuit, this newspaper undoubtedly gave him a shot in the arm.

Red spider lily does exist, and it is very likely on the island country.

Otherwise, the people of Yan would not have come across the ocean.

And treating the fear of sunlight hits right in his heart.

If he wasn't afraid of being exposed, Wuzan would have wanted to ask that Yan country businessman, "Is there a ghost in your house?"

"Do not……"

"No, calm down and observe for a while."

Wuzan calmed down, folded the newspaper in his pocket, turned around and left.

……

The next day.

Late in the evening, he bought another newspaper at the newsstand.

Still the front page headlines.

Everyone loves to watch stories about foreign merchants searching for treasure, and newspapers also go along with it.

"According to the plant experts accompanying the Yan country merchants, the blue red spider lily only blooms during the day... and the flowering period is very short each year..."

"More than 500 people have claimed to have found relevant clues, and experts are currently screening the information..."

Wuzan ignored those miscellaneous clues. He had been fooled more than once over the years.

But the newspaper raised a point: blue spider lilies only bloom during the day!

This solved his thousands of years of doubts!

Why have all these years of hard work yielded no results? That's why!!!

Kibutsu Muzan felt enlightened and a relieved smile appeared on his lips.

He even wanted to thank the Yan country businessman. If it weren't for Lu Chen, he would still be kept in the dark.

Of course, as the ancestor of ghosts, his way of expressing gratitude is usually to turn the other person into a ghost.

As for the authenticity of this news, in Muzan's opinion, it couldn't be more true.

Because every detail was tailor-made for him by Lu Chen, perfectly hitting the Ghost King's pain points.

……

Every few days thereafter.

Newspapers were tracking (making up) the treasure hunt of Yan's wealthy businessmen in real time.

The experiences become more tortuous than the last, and seem more real day by day.

In particular, a girl with light golden twin ponytails who provided clues and received a reward of several thousand yuan pushed people's enthusiasm to the highest point.

Muzan’s biggest expectation every day is to see what progress the Yan country merchant has made in his search for the blue red spider lily.

Lu Chen’s biggest job every day is to stay in the room and think about what content to write to fool Wuzan.

Muzan originally wanted to take action to get rid of the businessman as soon as possible, but after thinking it over, he decided to wait for things to develop and it would be safer to intercept him in the final stage.

A week later.

An ordinary evening.

As usual, Muzan bought a copy of Asahi Shimbun.

Just seeing the pictures on the first page made him stunned.

The front page of the news was a breaking news:

"The search team has found the exact location of the blue spider lily. After collecting the blue spider lily, they will return from Tokyo Bay in a few days."

The accompanying picture is a blooming red spider lily.

Although the color photos of the Taisho era are not very accurate, Muzan clearly saw that it was the blue red spider lily!! Not the most common red!!

found it! !

Muzan almost suppressed his excitement.

He reached out and stroked the photo a few times, as if recalling thousands of years of hard work and memories.

Then he immediately used the power of the Demon Ancestor to contact the remaining twelve demon moons.

"Kuroshibo, Akaza, Naruto, Hantengu...gather at Infinite Castle immediately."

"I have a mission for you."

Chapter 34: Did you poke Muzan’s nest?

Three days later, in the evening.

In the northern part of the island, off the coast of Sasebo Port.

A black heavy cruiser floated quietly on the sea.

The black and red hull, eight 8mm main guns, and the iconic double-decker conning tower indicate her identity - the Prince Eugen heavy cruiser.

Under the cover of night, no one noticed the warship.

Lu Chen stood on the bridge, looking at the coast not far away.

"Commander, will Muzan really come?"

Asked Prince Eugen, who had long silver hair and a tuft of red hair on his forehead.

"Yes, and he will find a way to mobilize all his forces to snatch this non-existent red spider lily."

Lu Chen stared at the ground in the distance.

Precisely because he has a full understanding of Muzan, he knows exactly how obsessed this demon king is with immortality.

According to the script, today is the day when the "rich businessman" prepares to set off for home with the red spider lilies.

The itinerary happened to be leaked by the newspaper, and the boarding point was located in the almost uninhabited Sasebo Port.

For Muzan, this was a perfect opportunity to take action and there was absolutely no reason to give up.

"Well, what if he didn't do what you wanted and just went into hiding?"

Awesome question.

From the beginning of the whole thing, she felt that the commander was arranging and deceiving Wuzan.

However, it is hard to say whether the other party will cooperate so well.

"Then let's get rid of the shogunate first, take the resources back and build the Gundam, and blow Muzan and Japan to the sky with one shot."

Lu Chen smiled.

Of course there are contingency plans, and there are more than one.

However, he wanted to try the simplest method first, to see if he could trick Muzan and the Twelve Demon Moons family out, and then kill them all together.

By the way, it's funny.

"Oh……"

The other ship girls nodded and prepared for battle.

Taiho and Kowei were also standing on the deck of Prince Eugen. The water in Sasebo Port was too shallow to accommodate the hull of an aircraft carrier.

Just fight in ship form.

The two waved their hands, and several carrier-based aircraft took off into the wind and flew towards the distant shore.

"coming!"

Soon, a message came from the reconnaissance plane ahead.

"35 kilometers northwest, a cluster of targets has been spotted! They are heading towards the coast, and they are moving very fast!"

……

ground.

Swish—swish—

Countless dark shadows whose movements could not be seen were running in the forest.

They move so fast that the human eye can hardly discern their movements.

Some of them ran on all fours close to the ground like reptiles, while others jumped among the bushes like monkeys.

Only when you get closer can you discover that they are all strange-looking ghosts!

There are hand ghosts with a large number of wrists wrapped around their bodies, swamp ghosts wearing ninja costumes, arrow ghosts, and countless low-level ghosts.

Driven by the ancestor of demons, they rushed towards the coast with a roar.

Hundred Ghosts at Night.

Almost half of the ghosts on the island are gathered here.

Creepy gurgling sounds and faint grunting sounds continued to be heard in the team.

A little further back was a young man with a pale face.

The ruler of all ghosts, Kibutsu no Misaki.

He deliberately concealed his figure and tried his best to sense the surrounding environment.

There were no humans, nor any trace of the Demon Slayer Corps.

Originally, after Douma's sudden and inexplicable death, he wanted to lie dormant for a while.

But years of failure and his desire for eternal life made him decide to take a risk.

As long as he could obtain it, sunlight would no longer be his natural enemy, and he would become a truly perfect immortal creature.

"Strange, where are the Demon Slayer Corps?"

In front of the army of ghosts were two sturdy young men. One had pale skin, short pink hair, black lines all over his face, and a "three" engraved on his iris.

The other person has six eyes on his face, and the middle left eye and right eye are engraved with "上弦" and "壹" respectively.

The two upper-rank demons looked around but did not find any trace of the so-called merchant or the Demon Slayer Corps.

They weren't worried that this was an ambush.
