Mini World Of Endless Fun Awaits

Chapter 504: Driving the tiger away from the mountain

"I really want to eat sukiyaki..."

Lin breathed out hot air into his hands and warmed his ten fingers. The clothes distributed by Wuhundian are indeed very warm, but the gloves are half-finger gloves...

This is because full-finger gloves will reduce the sensitivity of the samurai's fingers and make it difficult to control a full-screen smartphone, so it is better to just send half-finger gloves and still have some fabric left.

"Hold on, we have to wait another half hour for the shift change. Then we can go to the camp to eat and rest." Uncle Sato next to him glanced at the two watchmen walking in front and curled his lips: "They all You’re not hungry yet, so don’t complain.”

At this time, the watchman in front turned around, glanced at the setting sun in the distance, and asked in English: "Where have we patrolled?"

"Let me take a look." Lin took out his mobile phone and looked at the map and said, "This is Lobster Mountain. After walking along the mountain road, you will then reach Prefectural Highway No. 54. Wuhundian has arranged vehicles on the highway. , will take us back to the camp for shift change."

The watchman looked around and said, "There are no lobsters here. Why is it called Lobster Hill?"

Another watchman said angrily: "There are no elephants in the Xiangxiang Mountain just now, isn't it just a place name? Victor, we are not here for tourism."

"OK OK, Neville, of course I remember my true mission of coming all the way to Fanying." Watcher Victor spread his hands and said: "We are here to defeat the Demon King for the sake of justice and peace."

"But speaking of lobster, I kind of want to eat lobster. After the investigation is over, I have to try Banzakura's lobster... I heard that Ise lobster is very delicious."

Lin raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this - 1.

As he spoke, Victor touched his chin and asked Lin and Sato: "But, I'm just here for the Demon King's ability. If I can grab the Demon King's ability, I can get a promotion and salary increase immediately, and even become a watcher. The number two person in the army after the Angel Captain... no, even the Angel Zach has to give way to me! If you steal the Demon King's ability, what rewards will there be in the Spirit Hall?"

The two watchmen, plus the two Wuhun Palace warriors, are the patrol unit sent by the joint investigation team to the central part of the Hida Mountains.

The Hida Mountains are actually very large. Known as the Alps with blooming cherry blossoms, they span several prefectures from north to south. They include famous mountain climbing routes and ski centers, as well as rivers for hydropower development in the north, and even young volcanoes such as Mount Norikura and Mount Ontake. The terrain is rugged, complex and changeable, with endless mountains. If someone drives here to commit suicide, most likely they will only get a missing person certificate in the end - if they die a little further away, no one will find out.

If you really want to conduct a thorough search of the Hida Mountains, let alone the Wuhun Temple monks, even if you throw in nearly 30,000 police officers from the Quanfangying Police Department, I am afraid they can only make a splash and make no sound with a plop.

Moreover, when there are many people, it is easy to get confused. They want to find the devil, not let the devil fish in troubled waters and run away in the chaos.

Therefore, the police departments in Toyama Prefecture, Gifu Prefecture and other regions are only responsible for thoroughly checking surrounding hotels and investigating stranger information, and do not need to go into the mountains to investigate; as for the investigation of the Hida Mountains, because the watchers found the source of the trouble, the fish-man giant. The followers of the Demon King found key information from the believers' residence, confirming that the Demon King was in the middle of the missile, so the joint investigation team divided their troops into the mountains to patrol and search.

The Wuhun Temple warriors are the most numerous (emergency summons from all over Fanying), so the patrol team configuration is generally two extraordinarys from each country + two or three Wuhun Temple warriors, led by the samurai to patrol various mountains.

And everyone is equipped with signal flares. Once the Demon King is discovered, a signal must be sent out immediately - each patrol team is equipped with four or five extraordinary people. Even if they cannot defeat the Demon King, there is always a chance to send a signal.

This is also the reason why ordinary police are not allowed to investigate: in complex terrain like mountains, the devil's advantage over ordinary people is almost overwhelming. Any spell can make ordinary people incapacitated. Only extraordinary people can barely do it. Resist the oppression of the devil.

Lin and Sato were originally just ordinary members of Wuhun Palace with acceptable qualifications and few connections. If they followed the normal pace, they would probably become Wuhun Palace's logistics instructors.

But they got a little attention from their superiors because they witnessed the ghost gang and Crow Tengu of the God of Cookery in the Asgard.

And because of this little bit of attention, the two of them had gotten more opportunities to perform meritorious deeds in the past few months, and then they successfully became combatants of Wuhun Palace - samurai.

Sato glanced at the two watchmen and showed a polite smile of a social person: "There are rewards, and Wuhun Palace will not ignore anyone's contribution. But we warriors are here to implement justice, and we don't care about the size of the rewards. .”

Victor and Newt can basically represent the two typical foreigners in the joint investigation team: they come for justice and revenge. Like Newt, most of his relatives and friends died at the hands of the Demon King's followers, or they were affected by the source of the disaster. ; Those who come for profit, such as Victor, he just wants to obtain the powerful ability of the Demon King, and then use this power to strive for a higher status.

On the contrary, most of the Wuhun Palace warriors are here just for missions. Like Lin and Sato, they have no idea of ​​snatching away the Demon King's ability - they know that their strength is low and they are not qualified to participate in the extraordinary war. They only plan to do their job of leading the way honestly, and it is best not to encounter the Demon King. Patrol safely until shift change time.

No wonder they have this idea, mainly because there are no weaklings among the extraordinary beings sent by other countries, and all of them are at least three cloud level onmyoji or samurai.

How can Yigumo warriors like Lin and Sato, who only know a little combat magic, compete with them for the Demon King's head?

Victor muttered, "The Fanying people are so boring," and continued patrolling.

Because it was already dark, they turned on their tactical flashlights to illuminate the mountain road and scanned the grass up and down the mountain from time to time. Victor was quiet for a while, then his mouth became restless again: "If we search like this, can we really find the Demon King?"

Compared with the lifeless Newt, Victor was more talkative and easy to get along with, so Sato thought about it and chatted with him:

"If the information is correct and the Demon King stayed in Shirakawa-go yesterday and will move northwest, then she will most likely pass by Mt. Elephant Mountain, Mt. Ginkgo Mountain (Lobster Mountain), Mt. Akamagi, and Mt. Ogasa .”

Sato, who had studied the map, said: "The patrol route covers the entire mountainous area. As long as she really moves here, she will definitely be discovered."

"What if she doesn't go to the mountains?" Victor asked.

"There are strict checks on roads, highways and railways. Even people walking on the street, regardless of gender, must undergo identity verification. As long as she is walking on the street to buy food and drink, she will definitely be discovered." Sato said patiently.

Lin interjected at this time and asked: "Samurai Sakura seems to be sure that the Demon King will definitely enter the mountain, and he doesn't know where they are on duty... By the way, the information about the Demon King comes from your watchers, why is it instead? Are you here to ask us?"

"It comes from the Watchers. What does it have to do with me?" Victor rubbed his stiff neck and said, "God only knows why Bright is always so lucky. He can find key clues and evidence just by walking around. Come here in advance. Fanying happened to meet a giant fish-man monster when he was relaxing... He held the clues himself and didn't even tell us."

Victor thought for a while and then said: "But, if you just listen to what he says and do it, it will be fine. Several of my colleagues have been promoted and raised their salaries because they worked with Brett, and they almost didn't do anything. When they get hurt, Brett will always protect them.”

Lin sounded very envious and said longingly: "As expected of the 'Prince' Leopold, it would be great if I could follow him in doing things..."

Sato slapped Lin hard on the back of the head - Did you kid forget that you are a Spirit Hall warrior? So disloyal?

Lin rubbed the back of his head and said: "Oh, Uncle Sato, don't look at me saying I'm envious, but actually... I'm really envious.

You see, Mr. Leopold is just like the protagonist in an RPG game. Following him, you can get a promotion and a salary increase very safely. This kind of good thing is rare. This time we will definitely succeed in capturing the Demon King under his leadership. "

Victor also said: "Yes, yes, and Brett is easy to get along with and very popular. When this operation is over, I plan to hang out with him."

Lin raised his eyebrows - 2.

Sato sighed helplessly: "I hope so."

While chatting and patrolling, they soon walked around Lobster Mountain and walked directly along the mountain road towards the highway. Victor, who had good eyesight, could even see a car parked on the road. He stretched and said with a smile on his face: "Okay, as long as we finish walking this distance, we can rest!"

Lin's eyebrows jumped wildly when he heard this - 3!

Lin slapped his mouth and said, "Well, Victor..."

"Huh?" Victor turned his head and looked at him, "What's wrong?"

"Actually, I'm quite superstitious. When performing a task, if I say things like 'whatever happens after it's over' or 'whatever happens', it might..."

"What could it be?"

"We may not be able to go back safely..."

At this moment, Newt kicked off his legs, rushed towards Victor in front, and shouted: "Victor!"

Victor was also extremely fast, but he had already lost the opportunity. He felt a strong force hit him on the back of his head, and he fell unconscious to the ground before his eyes.

Newt, who was nearly two meters tall, rushed over like a rugby player, letting out a low roar from his throat. Yellow-brown armor appeared on his body. It seemed that he wanted to knock the attacker away!

However, a phantom floated past in the light of the flashlight, avoiding Newt's attack like a giant. Lin and Sato only heard the sound of cracking walnuts coming from the back of Newt's head, and then Newt fell.

Two D-class extraordinary beings, who were as powerful as Mitsumo Onmyoji, were killed by the attackers in the blink of an eye!

Sato and Lin immediately retreated quickly and took out the flare gun in their gun bag.

But their speed was completely inferior to the Phantom's speed. Even with the illumination of a tactical flashlight, they could not see the Phantom's appearance.

As soon as Sato took out the flare gun, he was knocked away by the Phantom. Then Lin heard a scream and saw Uncle Sato being knocked into the tree and fainted softly.

At this time, Lin finally caught the weapon used by Phantom - it was a stick!

He ran in such a hurry that he even lost his flashlight, and it took him a lot of effort to get out the flare gun. But misfortunes never come singly. When he ran away in a hurry, he didn't look at the road and kicked a thick tree root on the ground. He flew out and fell to his death.

Crap!

Lin completely ignored the pain in his body, and endless panic and complaints spread in his heart - it was all the fault of Victor, there was no need to set a flag, now it's better, the group was destroyed!

Lin turned over and was stunned for a moment - no one was chasing him from the direction behind him.

Could it be that... I managed to survive?

The bitter Newt, the ambitious Victor, and the worldly wise Uncle Sato are all dead, and I am the only one who survives?

Before he could feel the surprise of surviving and the guilt of surviving alone, he heard the sound of leaves being crushed behind him.

He actually ran behind me?

Lin raised his stiff head and happened to see the weapon that killed Uncle Sato hitting his head from above.

Today's last quarter moon was very bright, and the bright moonlight gave Lin enough light to see what weapon killed the four of them at the last moment of his life.

Look, the pink stick body, the white feather shape, and the red pointed beak like a bird's beak...

Lin was filled with incredible surprise: Wait, isn't this a magical weapon that is so famous that even children are shocked——

Kinomoto Sakura’s sealing staff! ?

"Were you also attacked by Kinomoto Sakura?"

The Wuhundian warrior on the intercom was stunned: "Yeah?"

Sitting on a big rock on the mountain path was a red-haired girl who was only about 150cm tall. She was chewing an apple in her left hand, and said with a walkie-talkie in her right hand: "You are the third patrol to tell me that they were knocked unconscious by the sealing staff."

"Did you see the signal flare and rush towards the direction of the signal flare?"

Walkie-talkie: "Yes, Sakura Daisuke, although we feel that the journey is a bit far and we should stay where we are, the Iron Sun Transcendents in the team insist on passing by, so we have no choice but to go with them."

The red-haired girl took another bite of the apple: "Then you walked onto the road and were attacked?"

"Yes, we can't see clearly who the other party is or how many people there are. We can only vaguely see that the weapon attacking us is the sealing staff. We woke up after about ten minutes of fainting. The people from the Iron Sun woke up. Send out the signal flare right away..."

"understood."

Switching the intercom channel and waiting for the signal to connect, the red-haired girl said: "Kadel, where are you?"

"We are rushing towards the direction where the signal flares were sent." The European lone wolf said: "There has been fighting there for two consecutive hours. It seems that the devil wants to fight us to the death there."

The red-haired girl said: "Maybe it's not the Demon King. The weapons used by the attackers are too strange."

"That's why I endured it for three hours. That guy Brett guessed wrong."

Kadel hung up the phone, and the red-haired girl called Daize, Ursa and Youjian. She found that Daize and Ursa had already passed by, and Youjian was about to leave.

The red-haired girl threw the eaten apple onto the mountain and reached out to the side. The red-armored warrior beside her immediately handed over a big red apple.

As she ate, she thought - why the sealing staff?

Does the Demon King really like watching Cardcaptor Sakura? It is possible that, based on her age, she may have watched this animation when she was a child...

Could it be that the Demon King's abilities can only be used with a magic wand? This is also possible...

Or maybe, that was not the Demon King at all, the person who attacked the patrol with the sealing staff just wanted to lure the tiger away from the mountain.

But what if the Demon King is really over there and is killed by Lone Wolf and the others?

Fanying is in urgent need of the power of the Demon King - Fanying is experiencing earthquakes, storms and landslides almost every day. If only he had the power to control the source of disaster...

The red-haired girl took a big bite of the apple, turned on the intercom, and asked, "Bright, where are you?"

"We are stationed at the pass." The cordial and hearty tone in Bright's voice could not be concealed even by the poor quality of the walkie-talkie: "Xingzi, what are your orders?"

Red-haired girl: "They have all gone to Area D to find the Demon King. Let's go too! You guessed wrong. The Demon King has no intention of revisiting his old place. He just wants to cause a scene before he dies."

"...Maybe. Well, Kyoko, I'm leaving too." Bright seemed a little regretful, but quickly said: "When the time comes, everyone will do what they can."

"Each one depends on his ability!"

The red-haired girl jumped down, and a red-haired warrior next to him came over with a three-meter-long spear, bent down, and said softly: "Kyoko, your..."

The red-haired girl took the spear and poked the Akabi samurai's knee with the barrel of the spear, causing him to kneel down on one knee with an ouch.

"Are you worthy of calling my name? Let's wait until your strength catches up with mine." The red-haired girl snorted: "But also, don't bend down in front of me, I'm not that short!"

On the other side, Bright, wearing a white windbreaker, was surrounded by watchmen and headed along the mountain road toward the area where flares were frequently fired.

A sword beam passed over Bright's shoulder and cut down an overhanging branch in front of Bright. Bright smiled and said, "Thanks, Celis."

The female watchman who was praised was not happy, but asked sharply: "Javier, how did you open the way? The branch almost hit Bright just now!"

Javier, the strong man leading the way, made a ashamed voice: "Sorry, I was distracted just now..."

"Javier, you can't open the way and just let me come..."

"Okay, okay." Brett said softly: "That branch can't hurt me. Celis, don't overreact. And Javier, you have always done a good job. It's normal to make some small mistakes. It's fine."

"Hmm...Okay, Brett."

"I'll keep trying, Brett."

A small episode passed like this, but at this time Bright suddenly stopped and looked around. The expressions of the four watchmen around him did not change, and they immediately formed a protective formation with Bright as the center.

The mountain forest is very quiet, with steep slopes on the left and dense trees on the right. The only sound in my ears is the rustling of the leaves in the wind, and the endless chirping of birds and insects in the distance. The bright moon has been covered by snow clouds, and the tiny snowflakes ride on the dim moonlight, refusing to be retained by the wind, and scatter to the earth, ending their short, pure and beautiful life.

After four seconds, Brett suddenly laughed: "I just think the scenery here is quite beautiful. Nothing happened. You are too sensitive."

The watchmen breathed a sigh of relief, and Celis said: "Then this operation is over, Brett, you can take a good vacation. You haven't had a vacation for a long time."

"Yeah, yeah, Brett, you're working too hard."

"Boss, you've done enough, you can take a break."

Brett smiled and said: "Speaking of rest, you don't have a rest either. You can take a vacation if you want, don't worry about me."

"No." Celis shook her head: "If you have a holiday, I will go with you on the holiday; if you don't take a holiday, I will also work with you."

"Me too, there will be many benefits from following you, and I don't want to miss any great things."

"Boss, as long as you don't drive me away, I will always follow you."

Brett spread his hands: "Okay, okay, with reliable teammates like you, I'm so happy that I want to work overtime for several months..."

"No, I have to take a day off!"

"Boss..."

The cheers and laughter of the watchers gradually faded away, and in the bushes next to where Bright and the others were standing just now, there were two men and women hugging each other.

Ren Suo was lying on the ground, and Qiao Muyi was riding on Ren Suo. Their bodies were completely close to each other, leaving no gap. The four eyes met each other, and the waves in their eyes seemed to be able to clearly understand the other person's inner thoughts.

Ren Suo held Qiao Muyi's waist with one hand, keeping her stiff and beautiful body close to him; he held a mask with one hand to cover Qiao Muyi's mouth and nose. Qiao Muyi's soft breath made the palm of his hand feel a little itchy. .

"It's okay." He said softly: "He can't find you, so don't be nervous."

When Qiao Muyi heard this, her body stiffened. Instead of relaxing, she continued to hug Ren Suo tightly.

Just now, Qiao Muyi was indeed nervous because she felt that she had been discovered by Bright, but when Ren Suo suddenly took off his mask, hugged her, and put his mask on her face...

Well, I’m pretty nervous anyway.
