(Intermittently and finally made up for the pretending to be born in the magic college.,If it weren't for the barrage support, I wouldn't have the motivation to watch it.,The world view is too pitiful.,The setting is good.,It's a pity that Suzaku ... One and Zhou Gongjin appear too little......

I have to say that Zhou Gongjin reminds me of Chu Zihang...... ）

The ghost clan does not refer to the soul body of the ghost of the Celestial Empire, but refers to a race that can be classified as a monster. Born an alcoholic, powerful, straightforward and bold, and hates to lie...... These can all serve as their racial characteristics.

This is a powerful race, and its status in Yingzhou is equivalent to that of the dragon in the West. It's also a transcendent status among monsters.,It's a nobility among monsters.。 But they don't like to use their brains, most of the time they are accompanied by alcohol, most of them are not very witty, and the character of the rectum is easily deceived by lies.

And human beings are precisely a race that is good at lying.

This leads to ......

They are often deceived.

So the ghost race is not friendly to humans, and of course humans are even less friendly to the ghost race. Who said that some ghosts feed on humans, although those evil ghosts are not recognized by the ghosts, and the ghosts also have rules prohibiting cannibalism, but humans don't understand that.

The cannibalism of the ghosts and the retreat of the ghosts by humans is also a kind of balance, in the past, humans broke the balance and caused the ghosts to completely cut off contact with humans, and now, the behavior of the drunken boy completely destroys the only connection......

The Iron Imperial Palace, which was not very far from Kyoto, and was the only way to enter and exit Kyoto, was becoming more and more rampant and eventually attracted the attention of the emperor.

That was just a few days later, though.

Now, the surface is calm and waveless, but the undercurrent is surging in the depths.

……

"Hey, dude, how many more floors are there?"

Carrying a silver skull sword, the forked hem of a black trench coat agitated in the wind, and the handsome young man standing on a boulder looking at the top of the mountain turned his head and asked the ghost who fell to the ground on his back.

With a green face and fangs, full of muscles, it is a very traditional image of the ghost clan, but it is just a relatively low-level ghost.

"There are still 28 floors, come on, little brother."

The ghost, whose face was fierce enough to scare a crying child, showed a hideous smile, but his words were full of kindness.

In short, it's a weird combination that looks vicious but is quite kind, and this contrast has been encountered a lot before.

However, Nidhogg also deserves goodwill, after all, he used the spine of his sword to knock the ghost over, not the blade.

"Then I'll go up, you can lie down for a while." Some impatient young men inserted the big sword back into the shoulder strap on their back, and beckoned Lori in the distance, "Ao Tian is gone!" ”

"Oh."

Lori put down the PSP in her hand, and on it was a conspicuous music game.

……

The way to challenge

You can think of it as a game like Sword Art Online, but it's not a lot of pressure for Nidhogg anyway. It was the 50 floors that annoyed him. However, through this thing, he can be regarded as having a rough understanding of the combat power level of the ghost clan, and he is worthy of the status of "noble" among the monsters.

Universal B power, C+ agility, plus the blessing of demonic power...... An ordinary ghost clan is a mid-level and upper-level youkai, and the outstanding point is a high-level youkai.

However, it's pointless if it's not a big youkai!

The big monster is a watershed, the gap between a newly promoted big monster and a high-level monster at the peak is very large, the former can beat five of the latter.

That's what Nidhogg was tired of.

He doesn't hate fighting, and even enjoys fighting a little because of the bloodthirsty instinct engraved in the dragon bloodline, but this style of play is just abuse. Even after hitting the last three layers, Nidhogg did not use weapons other than the Blade of Rebellion, let alone "style", and did not even use magic to infuse the blade, and the sharp broadsword was sharpened into a blunt sword by him.

The first twenty layers were all bare-handed, directly competing with the opponent's fists and feet, and the last thirty layers used the Blade of Rebellion, but he didn't feel too much pressure.

This is quite normal.

"The way of challenge" is originally set up for human beings, and the difficulty is naturally according to the standards of human heroes, and the real high-end combat power of the ghost clan has no intention of participating in this kind of "game", and Nidhogg is only playing as a game, by the way, to vent the recent gloom, but from the 30th floor, the other party seems to have realized that this is a waste of effort, and the ghosts guarding the level have obviously changed.

In the last level, the base camp of the ghost clan was clearly visible, and all the ghost clans of different skin colors and hideous faces looked at him with awe but friendly eyes, and there were some tengu kappa of human size mixed in it.

"At 49 floors, his face is still red and breathless, is he really a human being?"

"People have said a long time ago that it's not human, don't you see that the ghost lantern pill has appeared as a 40th-layer guard ghost? He's the 19th ranked hero of the Ghost Clan. ”

"And what kind of monster is he? There's no demonic spirit at all, I really thought he was human. ”

"He didn't say the race, it is estimated that it is the new big monster, he only knows that it is called Yakumoya, God knows what these big people are thinking."

"Yakumoya? Could it be from the monster sage's side? ”

"It doesn't matter who he is, he is a good man who can break through to the forty-nine levels, and he hasn't played Yin yet, so he is upright. Even if I lose, I'll treat him to a drink. ”

"Haha, didn't you finish drinking your wine earlier? Yesterday I was still drinking at Qingsuo's. ”

"How can the Oni Clan have no alcohol to drink? It's so naïve, Jinsaomaru! ”

The wide mountain path was lined with spectators, and this feeling of being in the spotlight made Nidhogg quite painful. Of course, if you change to a human being, it won't hurt to be an egg, being watched by a group of green-faced and muscular ghosts, even if there are a few people who look like people to do the appearance, but the sourness is still ......

Nidhogg didn't care about the other party's appearance, he just wanted to end the slaughter as soon as possible, but when he saw the real young figure at the end of the mountain road, he slowly stood up straight, raised his eyebrows and put away his attitude.

Nidhogg has never stopped in the system's forums and "fellow sites" water... I mean discussion, so he hasn't left the Internet yet, and he won't forget about Dongfang's popular characters.

Speaking of which, now he is also a popular character in the East, and he was stunned for a long time when he saw himself in the Oriental series in a comic book highlight post.

I guess all hosts also have their own comic game works in a certain world.

Ahem, the building is off.

The two deformed horns on the head, which look like ginseng, have a slightly baby fat little face, a small nose and big watery eyes, look lovable, and make people feel the urge to take them into their arms and care for them. In short, it's Lori who is on par with Ao Tianmeng behind her.

However, although Nidhogg is quite friendly to children, he will not be reduced to lolicon, so he focuses on the slender limbs of the other party wrapped in heavy shackles and chain balls, because of the huge pressure that the other party exudes, which is as dignified as a mountain.

This aura... There is no doubt that it is a big monster, or a long-precipitated big monster intermediate level.

This slender limb ... He didn't doubt what kind of amazing power it would have, the reason was that he recognized the other party.

Ibuki Sanka, the name also has the homonym of this watermelon→_→.

One of the purposes of his visit was fulfilled, Nidhogg raised his hand and drew the great sword behind him, his waist-length long black hair covered in silver.

"I'm going to sue you for cheating, the difference in strength between the forty-ninth layer gatekeeper and the fifty-layer gatekeeper is too big." The solemn atmosphere was broken by a helpless complaint.

"The 'monster killer' of Xixing Temple came to our ghost clan to make trouble, and I have a headache." The ghost girl lazily untied the wine gourd from her waist, uncorked the wooden bottle, and gulped a few gulps.

"Am I so famous? By the way, how did you determine my identity? ”

"Hair color, height." took another sip of wine and showed a teasing smile, "Actually, it's not a reason, it's mainly what Zi told me." ”

"......" Nidhogg suddenly felt unmotivated.

"Purple this guy ......"

"This guy is ...... Aka"

Yakumo Murasaki, who was preparing to watch a battle in the gap, pinched the folding fan, and next to it was the snickering Yuyuko and Yakumo Blue's helpless smile.

"Okay, then don't pretend, do you want to fight?" With a casual swing, the air was slashed away, and the turbulent currents stirred up the dust and sand on the ground.

"Hiccup~." She burped, and a few strands of red appeared on her fair skin. Wiping the wine foam from his lips with his hand, his eyes radiated an awe-inspiring battle intent, "Of course, since you have embarked on the 'Path of Challenge', I will face the final level!" ”

"The Ghost King of 'Strange', Ibuki Suika."

She flicked her wrist a few times, moved her neck a few times, and reported her name before the war.

"Dark Knight, Yakumo Night." The power of the Black Demon Man surged with the magic power, and the magic patterns on the black fingerless gloves lit up red, and at the same time, the red, brown, blue, and cyan stripes on the trench coat spread from the upper collar to the hem of the clothes, and the red, brown, blue, and cyan stripes also faintly revealed brilliance.

"Come, have a good fight!"

Both sides could sense the strength of the other, and at the same time aroused an astonishing battle intent.

"Be careful, don't die!" The silver blade was level, and the crimson smeared the blade, and Nidhogg took the lead in impressing the rushing charge.

In the face of this storm-like red meteor, Lori has no intention of avoiding the edge.

"Drink!" With a coquettish shout, his feet slammed on the ground, and his whole body leaped into the air, dodging the attacking blade and the spiral of sword qi that wrapped around the blade in Nidhogg's astonished gaze

Next, Ibuki twisted her body in the air with her waist and abdominal strength, and then swung her fist and blasted it towards Nidhogg's chest, and Nidhogg's wrist reversal immediately rushed forward to draw the sword in front of his chest.

Seeing this, Ibuki Suika was unmoved, and her continuous fists wrapped in red demonic power struck the back of the Rebellious Blade.

Bang bang!! ……

After dozens of collisions, Lori kicked the blade back a few steps along with Nidhogg's body.

She fell lightly back to the ground, unscrewed the gourd and took a few more sips.

The power that can make me retreat...... Niederhogg, who sighed like this, moved his wrist, which was a little numb.

It was clear that neither side had given their best at the beginning, and this first round of encounters was just a trial, and it looked as if Nidhogg had suffered a little loss, but in fact it had no impact at all.

"Alright, that's the end of the fun, Ibuki Suika, let's do our best!" Raising the blade again, a pale yellow glow and crimson lightning flashed staggered, and Nidhogg's speed suddenly increased, and he rushed towards Ibuki Suika with a series of afterimages behind him.

At the same time, the sound of music without any sense of disobedience interjects into the tense atmosphere.

The onlookers turned their attention to the strange "box" in the hands of the blue-haired little girl behind Nidhogg.

"Super.Ultra.Violet? It's a good fit! Trick.Sword！！！ ”
