Chapter 17: I've read the file countless times in Demon Slayer

Roach stumbled towards the room, vaguely feeling a mysterious connection revealed from the blue light, as if a consciousness controlled the two bodies, making him feel slightly uncomfortable.

However, Roach quickly put this feeling behind him, and it didn't take long for him to get used to it, as if a fish naturally learned to swim in the water.

After quickly returning to his room, he lay down directly on the bed.

Luo Qi closed his eyes, and his consciousness actively followed the bright spot as if he had crossed a spatial barrier, and he was just in a trance, and the surrounding scene changed dramatically.

In an instant, he came from the room on the ship to another world.

Looking around, Luo Qi's environment was in a karst cave tens of meters away, and under the endless darkness, a dozen and a half meter-sized blue mushrooms in the corner were emitting a faint glow, providing him with a little light.

In the cave, Roach stood still for a moment, letting his eyes adjust to the darkness, and then looked around at the animals and plants that could already be found.

However, because he projected part of his body over, unlike the pirate world, he projected the whole person, so now he is naked, and in such a humid situation, he naturally feels a little cold.

But Rocky was not in a hurry, and walked quickly behind a mossy boulder.

Surprisingly, there were more than a dozen mutilated corpses piled up on the ground, most of them unclothed.

There were even a few corpses that were left with only a pile of bones, and they did not appear to be formed by natural decay, but showed signs of animal gnawing.

Roach smiled bitterly and found a piece of clothing from the bones, although it smelled on it, he didn't mind putting it on at all.

Roach then searched nearby for a while, and soon found a worn-out knife on a relatively intact corpse.

He took off the knife, pinned it to his waist, and turned the corpse over, only to see that the corpse looked exactly like Roach.

"Look at yourself, it's scary." Roach smiled bitterly and ripped off a piece of cloth from his cuff to cover the corpse's face.

In fact, more than a dozen corpses in the cavern are all from Rocky's projections, and his abilities can create beings that resemble clones.

And once the clone dies, Roach can turn on the projection ability to shape one again, and the location where the new clone appears is the place where it originally died.

But the ontology of the pirate world is the most important thing, and he has a hunch in his heart that once the ontology dies, he may not be able to rely on the doppelganger to live alone.

Of course, the ability of projection also has drawbacks, Roach has only one consciousness, and he can only dominate the body of one world at the same time.

For example, Luo Qi's current consciousness is in the ghost world, so he will become a lot more wooden in the pirate world, although he is still absolutely controlled by the main consciousness, but after all, there is a slight time difference between the worlds, and there will be some influence.

However, according to Roach's experiments, at most, it will be more straightforward in terms of dealing with people, or the style of combat will become extremely simple and clear, and there will be little change.

After searching the corpse for a while, Rocky found a crumpled letter with a few large letters written on the envelope.

"The scales are close to the left."

After gently stroking the envelope with his hand, Roach put it back in his arms and placed it close to his body.

The owner of this letter came from a man named Yoshiyoshi Tomioka, when Rocky had just discovered the power of projection, and his first encounter with the other world was this ghost world.

In this world, Roach had a very smooth start and although he first appeared in a wilderness area, he didn't look long before he found people.

After living in a backward village for a few days, Roach is still very satisfied with the safety of the world, the only drawback is that he is poor and productive.

But before he could completely settle down, what no one knew was that a monster had quietly touched into the village.

Roach still can't imagine the first time he saw the monster, the room was littered with stumps, and a creature that looked like a skinned monkey was crouching on the ground, stuffing pieces of meat into its mouth one by one.

Under the dark night, the monster's scarlet eyes exuded undisguised killing intent, as well as a desire for human flesh, and to Rocky's shock, the monster actually spoke, and its wisdom was no less than that of ordinary people.

"I smell delicious, it's not the same as these hillbillies, hey, hey, hey, stay where you are, I can be the last to eat you."

Roach's face changed drastically, and his legs subconsciously retreated, but before he could react, a black shadow flashed in front of him, and then he fell into a coma.

When I woke up again, I don't know how much time had passed, and the waning moon, which had only just arrived in the middle of the sky, had already hung high.

Roach's body was hanging upside down from a tree branch, and the figure of the monster was watching him from a short distance, his feet covered with bones, and the blood stained the surrounding dirt blood-red.

As if noticing Roach's awakening, the monster approached him with a slow pace, making strange noises from its mouth.

"I prefer to eat a person alive than a dead body, especially its desperate screams, painful wails, better than all seasoning, hehehehe."

At this time, the monster was already standing beside him, saliva dripping down the corner of his mouth to the ground, and just as Rocky was about to withdraw his consciousness, he found that the monster was suddenly frozen in place.

Under the moonlight in the distance, a small figure kept running in their direction, and the speed was far beyond ordinary people.

Through the moonlight, Luo Qi also clearly saw the appearance of this person, with short black hair only reaching the neck, wearing exquisite clothes in red and green colors, and a seemingly ordinary knife at his waist.

The man's eyes seemed to be unwavering, but there was a faint hint of monstrous anger, staring at the monster tightly, and his right hand had already been placed on the hilt of the sword.

The monster subconsciously took a few steps back, but soon became angry, kicked his legs the ground, and quickly met it.

"What are you kidding, isn't this hitting a stone with an egg?"

Roach muttered to himself, he couldn't even bear to open his eyes, knowing that those villagers had also tried to resist, no matter what attack could not work, even if it could be harmed, the monster would recover its injuries at a speed visible to the naked eye.

But soon, he watched an unbelievable scene, a blue light enveloped the surroundings, and the sound of water waves was so real that it clearly reached Roach's ears.
