"What's going on?" Clark here really can't figure out the situation, why did the hell band here appear at this time? They just said that Linton seemed to know something, so what did he know? Honestly, he really didn't get it figured out.

"Don't look at me." Seeing Clark's inquiring eyes, Linton spread his hands and said, "I just know a rough idea, and I can't tell you what the specific situation is." ”

"So, let me explain." Suddenly, a female voice came from behind the two of them, and the two turned their heads to find a black long man dressed in white and a bit like a witch outfit walking straight out of the passage behind them. Of course, this person Linton also knows, Kagura Chizuru is also a relatively important person in this world, and of course, more importantly, she is also one of the three family heirs that Linton is looking for.

"Are you...... Kagura Chizuru? Of course, Clark also recognized the other party, after all, they had all read the information of the players in the game.

"Unexpectedly, is it actually you?" Kagura Chizuru walked to a point next to the ring and spoke to the people of the Hell Band first, "At the beginning of this King of Fighters tournament, I noticed that someone was collecting the mental power released by the martial artists. ”

"Mental power?" Clark asked.

"Yes, their purpose is to resurrect the serpent." Kagura Chizuru said.

"Orochi? So what? Clark was really confused.

"The being known as the will of the earth."

"Will of the Earth? Isn't that ...... God? Clark said in surprise, I always feel that this fighting game suddenly started to go wrong, and the huge black thing next to it doesn't know what it is, and now it's still coming out of a god, can't this be a normal fighting game?

"In the past, the great snake has been guarding human beings since the creation of the human race, but since human beings have been separated from nature, the society formed by human activities has been regarded as unnatural by the great snake, and it wants to use natural disasters to respond to this unnaturalness, and the great snake itself has become a symbol of evil for humans." Kagura Chizuru continued, "1,800 years ago, the Great Snake began a plan to exterminate humans, but before the plan was completed, it was stopped by the three major families, and the Great Snake itself was sealed. ”

"Exterminate humanity?" Clark was stunned, God wants to destroy humanity?

Although the Great Snake was sealed, he did not give up the idea of exterminating humanity. And his subordinates have been active to resurrect him, for example, Gonitz, who appeared in the last King of Fighters Tournament, is one of the Eight Masters under Orochi, and the three of you should also be members of the Eight Masters, right? Kagura Chizuru asked, pointing to the three members of the Hell Band opposite.

"Yes, our identity is three of the Four Heavenly Kings." The Seven Flails Society nodded directly in acknowledgement.

"Really? My previous investigation was completely in the wrong direction. "Kagura Chizuru said? " I noticed that after someone collected spiritual power, they already suspected that this was the action of your Eight Masterpieces? But at first I thought that the three members of the Strawberry Sweethearts were the Eight Masters? I don't suspect you at all. ”

"Huh?" Linton next to him was stunned, "Don't you look like someone else's subordinate?" ”

"There's an ominous aura about you." Kagura Chizuru said? "But I should have seen you a long time ago, even though your breath is ominous? But it's not the breath of a serpent. Before, I was just worried about startling the snake? If I had met you earlier, I wouldn't have made a mistake. ”

"What the hell is going on with collecting spiritual power?" Clark next to him asked.

"Our family has always been on the mission of sealing the eight-foot shrine maiden of the Great Snake, but a few years ago, my sister Mangui, who was a shrine maiden at the time, was killed by Konitz? Causes the seal of the serpent's body to be lifted. "Kagura Chizuru said? " But this is not enough to completely resurrect the big snake, if you want to resurrect the big snake, in addition to the physical body, you also need a huge amount of spiritual power. So when I found out that someone was collecting mental power during this King of Fighters tournament, I already knew that it was their action. ”

"Speaking of which? I owe this to Mr. Linton. At this time, the Seven Flails Society on the opposite side suddenly spoke, "Isn't it easy to collect spiritual power? The source of spiritual power comes from the powerful negative emotions of human beings. We were worried that this would be difficult to do. But with the help of this Mr. Linton, we have gathered enough mental energy? Thank you so much. ”

While talking? The Seven Flails Society on the side also saluted Linton? I really seem to be grateful to Linton.

"There's a setting like this." Linton nodded, yes he really didn't know, "Then it seems that those who face me are really desperate enough." ”

"So, the serpent is about to come back to life? That's why he just said that the time had come. Clark said.

"No, there should be something missing." Kagura Chizuru said, "I don't know exactly what is missing, but before we do, we have a chance to stop them." ”

"Hahahaha......" The Seven Flails Society here suddenly laughed, "What's the difference?" You're right, there's one thing missing, and that thing is a sacrifice. ”

"Sacrifices?" Kagura Chizuru was stunned.

"But one thing you said wrong, this sacrifice, we have already gotten it." The Seven Flails Society waved his hand to the rear as he spoke, and in the passage behind him, another figure walked out. Seeing the people who appeared, everyone was stunned.

"Are you...... Ryuji Yamazaki? Of course, Clark recognized the other party, and the person who appeared in front of them was one of the members of the Special Invitation Team, Ryuji Yamazaki.

"You're also one of the Eight Masterpieces?" Kagura Chizuru said immediately.

At this time, Ryuji Yamazaki didn't come out alone, and he still had a girl in his hand who had fallen into a coma. This girl is not very old at first glance, she is probably a high school student, and she is still wearing a sailor suit. However, this person should not be a competitor in the King of Fighters tournament, because Clark does not know each other.

Although he didn't know each other, combined with what the Seven Flail Society said above, Kagura Chizuru had already guessed that this was the "sacrifice" he was talking about. But what the hell is going on with this sacrifice? Why did this girl qualify as a sacrifice to the serpent?

"I don't think you know yet." The Seven Flail Society looked at Kagura Chizuru and said, "When our lord wanted to perform the ceremony, he captured the eight daughters of Sugai Mingzun. Seven of them have been successfully sacrificed, and the only one left is Ki Rice Field. And this girl has the blood of Qi Rice Field. ”

"What?" Kagura Chizuru jerked for a moment, understanding the meaning of the Seven Flail Society.

"Therefore I said that it is too late, and that all the things for the resurrection of my lord are ready, and you cannot stop the resurrection of my lord." The Seven Flails said.

"Little ...... Light snow? At this time, a weak voice suddenly came from the side, and everyone turned their heads to look and found that the person who spoke was Kusanagi Kyo, who had fallen to the ground and never got up. He seems to be very weak now, and he seems to know the girl who was grabbed by Ryuji Yamazaki, and his emotions seem to be very excited now.

"That's right, your girlfriend is the reincarnation of Ki Inada-hime, and now, she will be sacrificed to resurrect my lord." "Speaking of which, I would like to thank Mr. Linton again, if you hadn't injured two of the three families, our plan wouldn't have gone so smoothly either. ”

"Hey, why do you have to pull me up for doing bad things on your own side?" Linton spread his hands and said, "It makes me look like I'm in the same gang as you." Don't bury me, can you? As long as you are a LOW villain who destroys humanity at every turn, you can't tolerate me as a god, okay? Besides, what qualifications do you have to thank me, you are just a puppet operated by the big snake, right, otherwise you would not be able to destroy the human race with him even if you have a little consciousness of your own, right, then are you qualified? I want to thank the serpent to thank me. ”

"We serve our Lord with all our hearts." The Seven Flails Society said immediately.

"Then you are very great, the big snake represents the will of the earth and says that it is okay to destroy human beings, what is your identity? Do they all think they can represent the earth? Can't figure out where you stand? If you say so, not only human beings, but also the earth should be destroyed, after all, the mass of the earth in the universe is too large, causing the progress of the universe to be restarted to zero is delayed, you go and ask the big snake, will it be sold for the whole universe if it is so great. Linton said.

"What I'm really most afraid of is those of you who inexplicably stand on a seemingly high position, who casually betray the country in order to protect the natural environment, who suddenly betray the nation for the sake of world peace, and who can't see clearly where you stand, you can say that you are LOW and not LOW." Linton said.

"Whatever you say, it is unlikely that it will affect my loyalty to my lord." However, although Linton said a lot, the Seven Flails Society here did not waver at all, and was very determined, "You should also give up struggling, because my lord is about to come." ”

As he spoke, he turned his head and said to Ryuji Yamazaki behind him, "Come on, bring the sacrifice." ”

"Damn!" Kagura Chizuru was a little anxious here, and although she knew it was too late, she still wanted to step forward. However, at this time, something surprising happened, Ryūji Yamazaki here did not step forward at this time, but stood in place with Xiaoxue in his arms.

"What do you mean?" The Seven Flails frowned and asked.

"I think...... He's right. Ryuji Yamazaki on this side suddenly spoke, "I said before, I am who I am, and I will not be instructed to do things by anyone." ”
