16. Shrine maidens and samurai

The Great Snake has woken up!

We fled Izumo almost in a hurry, and even the most reckless Inuyasha didn't even bother to challenge the idea of "riding the Great Snake on the throne and just waking up, and killing it in one fell swoop". Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The strength of each other is too different, although the Eight Miscellaneous Snake has no intention of attacking us, but just the murderous aura it exudes at will is enough to make us stand unsteadily, and the evil aura that continues to rise like a yellow spring and a sea tide from hell is even more terrifying.

Just standing in front of it, it makes me feel as if my whole body is soaked in biting ice water, and even my bone marrow seems to be frozen; It was as if he had been slashed by countless swords, and there was no place in his body that did not hurt.

Challenge this kind of guy? If you really want to kill yourself, wouldn't it be better to find a more comfortable way!

The thoughts of my companions were obviously similar to mine, and even Ashikaga, who was a shogun, did not think about the issue of destroying the Great Snake at all, but sent messengers to the daimyo of the cloud generation to persuade them to abandon their territory and leave with the people.

"Manpower can't compete with natural disasters, the Eight Miscellaneous Snake is a demon that only the gods can fight, if the mortals of my generation are not fully prepared, even if they rush up, it is useless." In the letter, he said pessimistically, "A samurai is not afraid of death, but it is meaningful to die properly, and it cannot be given in vain!" ”

However, it was too late.

The envoys of the Twelfth Route only brought back a reply from the Ninth Route Daimyo.

In just six days, the Eight Miscellaneous Snake ate up the neighborhood

Everything in three walled cities and towns.

All the envoy saw was ruins.

There were no corpses, and everything that could be eaten was eaten by it.

"Obviously, the Eight Snakes are in a state of starvation right now." Ashikaga looked at the map, studied the movements of the terrifying demon, and then came to an even more terrifying conclusion, "After all, it has been hungry for at least a thousand years, and if you want to make up all the weight for a thousand years, it will eat up the whole of Japan, I'm afraid it's not impossible......"

Feed! Don't talk about such a terrible topic so lightly!

"Alright, now it's time to decide!" Ashikaga stopped looking at the maps that even we had on our backs, raised his head, and looked around at his companions, "Either take the great snake and run away as soon as possible, the farther away the better—get a Reiko ship and run to the Americas, presumably it will be fine." ”

"Or, just straighten out the soldiers and horses and do a fight with it."

"But no matter which path you choose, you have to do it as soon as possible, if you hesitate and are in a dilemma, the result will definitely be that the big snake will eat the door, and we don't have to choose anything."

After saying that, he went to gather the daimyo and important officials of the imperial court to discuss the question of whether to fight or flee.

The result is obvious, even if you start building now, how many people can be transported? And even if a few people flee to the Americas, won't there be such super monsters in the Americas? If you work so hard to rebuild your home, and a Quetzalcoatl god emerges, will everyone flee to Africa again?

It only took one morning for the princes from all walks of life to discuss countermeasures.

In fact, it is also very simple, so simple that people have nothing to say.

The matter has come to this point, except for the fight with the eight miscellaneous snakes, where else can I go!

Fortunately, the previous preparations were sufficient, anyway, whether it was fighting the monster army, or fighting the Eight Miscellaneous Snakes, in short, it was all ......

Of course, the power of the Eight Miscellaneous Snakes is by no means comparable to the odds, but since it is necessary to fight horizontally and vertically, there is no need to consider how powerful the enemy is...... Anyway, no matter how powerful he is, a person can only die once, and he is not afraid of death, so what else is there to be afraid of?

In order to deal with the Eight Miscellaneous Snakes, we have also done a lot of targeted work, among which it is worth mentioning three things in particular:

First of all, His Majesty the Emperor issued an edict inviting the three artifacts of Japan's treasures: the Kusanagi Sword, the Eight Mirrors, and the Eight-Foot Qiongqu Jade, and awarded them to the three most outstanding shrine maidens of our time, planning to use the power of the three artifacts to summon the "Three Precious Sons", the main god of Japan, to fight against the Great Snake.

The Hinata who has always been in charge of the Eight Mirrors and is responsible for summoning Amaterasu is of course the same; Kikyo was awarded the eight-foot Qiongqu Jade, responsible for summoning the moonlit night to see the Zun (Moon Blasphemy); Nakorulu was given the Kusanagi Sword and was tasked with summoning Suchan Narumun (Susanoo). At present, they are practicing joint spell casting, and the progress of the practice is going well, but it makes people feel sad to think that in order to suppress the Great Snake, most of the three shrine maidens will die because they will become the carriers of the true god to descend into the world.

The second thing is that Honda Tadakatsu is dead - at least Honda Tadakatsu as a "human" no longer exists.

The big snake is not a strange thing, it is shaped like a mountain, it is extremely powerful, and ordinary Lingzi weapons are tantamount to itching for it, so it needs a more powerful weapon. Ashikaga Yoshikyo has designed an airship called "Ragnarok", whose main cannon "Apocalypse" is powerful enough to reduce a hill to nothing in one blow, and it is believed that even the legendary demon Yaqi Orochi will be hit by it will be quite badly damaged. But this airship, which can be called an air fortress, has encountered great trouble when making it - it is too difficult to make, far beyond the technical limits of the craftsmen of this world, and according to the estimation of Sunset Kagome, a superpower who was born in a school city and is good at calculating various data, it takes at least two hundred skilled mechanics to smoothly control this airship, or sixty superpowers with the same computing power as her.

Obviously, we can't do either of these conditions.

If it's in the school city, it's not difficult to achieve these two conditions, but the jade of the four souls has all fallen into the hands of Naraku, and now it's still about in the belly of the eight-way snake, without it, Kagome can only travel through time by herself, and there is no way to bring someone else over - if it weren't for this reason, Maitreya would have wanted her to ask my friend Kamijo to help with him, because it is said that his right hand can erase any fantasy - no matter how advanced the gods and demons are, as long as they are caught by the right hand he calls the "fantasy killer", Even if it doesn't come to naught immediately, at least it will be temporarily sealed, and I believe that the Eight Miscellaneous Snake will not be an exception.

I don't really believe what Maitreya said, the ability of "fantasy killer" is a little too unbelievable! But I'd also like Kagome to bring those LV5s over to help, such as the passage of the one who claims to be the strongest superpower, or the super electromagnetic cannon with extremely powerful attack ability...... With their help, dealing with the snake is not hopeless!

What a pity! Without the Jade of the Four Souls, it's all just fantasy......

Even if you want to use the advanced technology of Gakuen City, make parts over there and assemble them, you can't do it, because Ashikaga Yoshikyo's drawings can't be constructed in sections, and Kagome can't travel through time with a giant airship.

In desperation, Honda Tadakatsu made a difficult choice.

His traversal ability, called "Metal Core," allows him to fuse and control the surrounding metalwork, but the more he fuses and controls it more precisely, the greater the burden on his "core", and once the limit is exceeded, the fusion is fixed and can never be reversed. At the beginning, he fused the entire castle tower of Okazaki Castle, and although the amount was large, the control was very loose, so he did not exceed his limits, but this time in order to build the "Ragnarok" airship, he gave it up......

In just one day, a large amount of metal materials were combined into a giant airship with a length of more than two hundred meters and a height of more than ten meters. The entire battleship was equipped with more than 200 naval guns, and the power of the main gun "Apocalypse" even exceeded Lao Niu's full force; The whole ship can carry up to 6,000 people and 180 Lingzi armor such as "Guangwu"; The enemy detection system, which integrates aura detection and sonar radar, has a maximum detection range of 120 kilometers, and can remotely control the body within 40 kilometers, and can also provide communication services for troops within 80 kilometers......

In order to accomplish these functions, Honda Tadakatsu fused and took control of metal far beyond his limits, resulting in him not only never being able to revert back to his human form, but even losing his self-consciousness almost entirely, with only the slow tone of the Ragnarok's bridge control computer faintly audible to his human voice.

We are all saddened by the death of Tadashi Honda, but then we have another sad event - the death of the greatest onmyoji of Japan's generation, Haruaki Abe.

Abe Harumi was already old and frail, in the battle with Qiqi, he was injured first, and he was sick again, and his soul went out of his body to fight to the death with Qiqi, and in the end, although he won the victory, but he also completely burned out the fire of life that he had left.

"Grandpa walked peacefully." As we went to mourn, Harumi's grandson Changhao said, "He passed on the Twelve Divine Generals to me, so please let me carry on my grandfather's legacy and help you defeat the Eight Snakes!" ”

His eyes were clear and determined, and he knew at a glance that there was no room for negotiation.

Then the next morning, a third important thing happened.

The future maiden who inherited the name "Amakusa Shiro" was invited to meet Ashikaga with four thousand young men who had no actual combat experience other than religious fanaticism.

This time, we don't have time for them to train slowly......

"The threat of the Yachigo Orochi is imminent, and the situation is so bad that not only samurai and soldiers, but even laymen and children who do not know how to fight at all have to go to the battlefield......" Ashikaga couldn't help but shake his head and sigh when signing the call-up order, "It's really a cold time......"

Then, Ashikaga published an article titled "Stand up, citizens!" Speech:

The Great Snake has awakened, and we have lost the entire Izumo Province and our relatives there. To fight it, we also lost two heroes......

But does that mean failure?

No, that's just the beginning!

The Orochichi is a mythical demon, compared to it, we humans are not enough to worry about in terms of lifespan or strength, but we still resolutely challenge it.

Why? Ladies and gentlemen, we are fighting for our relatives and families!

I think you know this as well as I do.

Japan is not a very big country, and it only takes two months to walk from the east to the west, and for a giant demon like Yachi, it may only take ten days and half a month to take a leisurely turn around twice - while walking, we eat up all of us, our wives and children, and all those who care about us and are cared for......

So we don't have a choice, we have to fight!

As I said before, I firmly believe that we will be victorious, and that a new era will not belong to youkai, but only to humanity, which is a historical necessity. So we must open the battle with our own hands, face the harsh situation together, be tempered together, and win together, and build a prosperous nation together - this is what I promised you, and this is what you promised me!

The snake is terrifying, yes, just thinking of its mountain-like posture keeps me awake all night, and I am so scared that I even shiver when I drink water.

But...... A long, long time ago, our ancestors, with bamboo spears and copper swords, defeated it and sealed it to the present!

Now, we have millions of people, we have excellent weapons, we are all united, we are not afraid of any danger, we are stronger than our ancestors!

And what about the Eight Miscellaneous Snakes? It has been sealed for so many years, how much power is left?

I think we're going to win!

Nationals! Turn your grief into anger and stand up!

Nationals! Don't forget that we are the descendants of God, the descendants of the heroes who defeated the Great Serpent in the first place!

We also need to build a new era of prosperity! This is our historical responsibility!

We will win!

His speech was brilliant and made my blood boil.

But Nakoruru was furious, and the usually timid girl was very angry, and quarreled with Ashikaga fiercely.

"Why tie everyone to your chariot? If you want to die, you can die yourself! She roared, "Defeat the Great Snake, you continue to be your general, right?" But what about the dead? ”

"You're just bewitching them into defending your throne with their lives!"

…… Of course, the Orochi didn't pay attention to what we thought or did, it just walked in the densely populated direction of Kyoto.

So, soon the time for a decisive battle came......

………………

First of all, let's say one thing: Longkong's annual inventory, this book is honored to enter the second round, friends who have accounts in Longkong, if you can go to the fantasy page to help vote, it's great, it doesn't matter if you can't, I'm just talking......

The link to the poll sticker is as follows:

And then one thing: Ashikaga's speech is borrowed from Kilian Zabi's lines from "Mobile Suit Gundam" - in fact, many of this guy's lines come from this, he is also a COS faction, but he is more practical, unlike Lao Niu who pretends to be B purely for the sake of pretending to be B.

In the end, after some tossing, the computer seems to be barely usable again, so there is today's update......
