Page 67 Ninja Yashiki

Pushing open the hidden wooden door, he walked past the old threshold, and Merlin was greeted by a vibrant old-style courtyard. The land covered with fine sand grows patches of green grass, clusters of green bamboos stand tall in the corner of the courtyard, fences made of fine bamboo pieces surround the flowerbeds and medicine gardens that bloom flowers, and several strong and powerful welcoming pines and cypresses grow beside the bluestone paved path. A crystal clear stream runs through the small courtyard and forms a lake beside the rockery, and through the pristine water of the stream, you can directly see its riverbed, which is carefully stacked with pebbles. The arm-thick bamboo bridge spans the stream, and the handrails of the bamboo bridge have changed color due to long-term caressing. In the middle of the small lake, a bamboo and wood waterwheel is drawing clear water, and every time it is filled with a bamboo tube, the spring is poured back into the lake and there is a crisp sound.

Perhaps most of the buildings in the old era are due to the same style, and seeing that the Merlin in this courtyard is like being in the small courtyard of the grandfather who once lived, the same quiet and peaceful......

"Why is it so long?" The voice of the female ninja on the flat plate interrupted Merlin's immersed memories very mercilessly. Her tone was still flat, but there was some blame.

"I'm sorry."

"It doesn't matter." The female ninja shook her hand casually, "Bringing you here will be considered the completion of my mission." She said very plainly, "The next road needs to be walked by yourself." ”

"Walk on your own?" Merlin raised his eyes to look at the houses in front of him, and his tone was full of questions.

"Hmm." The female ninja nodded firmly, "According to our rules, only our house is worthy of being entertained. Only those who pass our quiz are eligible to enter real dojos and dojos. ”

"Tong guò?"

"Father is waiting for you inside." The female ninja jumped up on the eaves with all the strength of her feet, "But you have to be careful, the ninja's machine house is not so easy to get through, plus ......" She shook her head and stopped talking, just jumped and stepped on the cyan tiles on the roof, and disappeared in a few ups and downs.

"Ninja's trap house?" Merlin asked herself with a wry smile.

As if to answer his question, a shuriken flew from all directions at the same time.

"I see, ah......" Merlin, who had long been on guard, immediately summoned a wave of mental power fluctuations and smashed the hidden weapons that attacked one after another, and then took a step along the path paved with bluestone slabs and gradually went deep into the ninja's house.

After only walking two or three steps, Merlin's left foot was about to step firmly on the ground and fully landed, but suddenly the touch under his feet was not very right, not like the hard and solid stone surfaces before, but like something loose and soft!

Although he sensed that something was wrong, Merlin didn't have time to control his body and stop the movements he had made, and his toes had already stepped on the soft place, and at the same time as his toes really fell into the soft ball, a large cloud of dark purple smoke burst out from under his feet, and these poisonous powders with a strong fishy smell went straight to Merlin's body. This was not the end, as the powder lifted into the air, a large hairy purple needle was ejected from Merlin's feet, and it was also shot at Merlin with a sharp sound of breaking through the air.

Merlin, who was too late to dodge, hurriedly propped up his shield and puffed up waves to respond to the attack from under his feet, while hurriedly taking a few steps back.

Just as he barely dodged the attack in front of him and retreated a few steps, his right foot in the middle of his retreat stomped on a wooden board painted like a stone slab, and with a loud sound, a black muzzle suddenly rose from the tall grass behind him, and a large puddle of hot iron sand was directly shot out from it!

Merlin naturally responded in a hurry. The more he subconsciously reacted, the more mechanisms he touched, and the more attacks he received, and these attacks forced Merlin to make more movements, so that under the vicious circle, Merlin was soon disgraced by all kinds of hidden weapons, hidden arrows, and hidden guns. These attacks that came out of all kinds of strange places and hit him with unsparing force, with obvious killing intent, made Merlin really break out in a cold sweat.

The wolf retreated and dodged, and Merlin finally returned to where he had started with a pounding heart and a sudden increase in blood pressure and adrenaline. There didn't seem to be any hidden weapons in that area, which finally allowed Merlin to take a few breaths.

Inhaling deeply, trying his best to calm the high-functioning organs, Merlin finally calmed down after a while. Trembling and pulling down his glasses with his fingers, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead with the back of his hand, Merlin looked at the path he had walked before with deep fear, only to see that the path made of cyan stone slabs was already chaotic and full of gunsmoke.

Seeing this, Merlin let out another breath of turbidity.

[What kind of test is this?] It's almost life-threatening......] Merlin shook his head slightly, [Walk over? Just kidding......]

A trace of hesitation and retreat rose in his heart, and Merlin's legs naturally quietly carried out the private decision of his brain, and secretly took a small step back.

"Click~"

The heel of his right foot in retreat seemed to have stepped on something of unusual texture, not like a slate, not like a wooden plank, not necessarily like metal or anything like that. The texture of the thing is not soft, it seems to be round, it seems to have some heat, and it seems to make a ticking sound......

Merlin slowly twisted his neck to look at his feet. "Hiss~~" After seeing what he was stepping on, Merlin immediately gasped, and then without any hesitation, he immediately moved and moved forward in an instant, and at the same time quickly covered himself with several layers of protective shields.

At the same time that Merlin's figure hurriedly left the thing he stepped on, a dazzling white flash suddenly flashed where Merlin had stepped on, and then a violent explosion exploded, and the shock wave generated by the explosion mixed with the surrounding dirt and stone chips suddenly enveloped this beautiful small courtyard. Affected by the explosion, the various mechanisms buried in the small courtyard were activated one after another......

All of a sudden, the courtyard turned into a noisy battlefield, and all kinds of ninja mechanisms that were completely capable of killing people were forced to excite in the chaos, releasing their terror and sharpness aimlessly.

Although there was a certain amount of preparation in advance, Merlin, who was caught in the total explosion of this mechanism, was still greatly affected. First, the teleportation process was disrupted by these unrestrained riot/riot attacks, and was directly involved in the center of the attack, and then began to be forced to accept the impact of countless attacks. They frantically shook the shield that Merlin was struggling to maintain, and for the first time, the shield of strong energy that had saved Merlin's fragile flesh/body several times showed its vulnerable side. Again and again it was shattered and shattered in various attacks, again and again it was barely repaired by Merlin, and then shattered again and again. Wrapped in a thin shield of lilac energy, Merlin was like a boat swept into the rough waves, drifting back and forth among all kinds of attacks, unable to help himself and uncertain about his life and death.

Fortunately, the ninjas have no end in their arsenal. After what seemed to be an extremely long but fleeting concentrated explosion, the mechanisms arranged in the courtyard released their accumulated malice and murderous intent, and became harmless and quiet again.

"Phew!" "Phew!"

Several arrowheads, in the shape of a cross, covered in rust and blue-purple sheen, shot from the canopy of a pine and cypress in the courtyard to the ground in front of Merlin to the left, as lightly as if cutting something soft like cheese or tofu, piercing the broken stone slab and the earth beneath it deep into the ground until the end.

"Hum~~"

Probably the tail feathers and the end of the crossbow arrow made by the feathers of some kind of bird Pokémon trembled for a while after the crossbow bolt hit the ground, and there was a faint but loud buzzing sound.

"Hiss~"

Immediately afterward, a wisp of turbid cyan smoke began to emit from the stone slabs and dirt pierced by the arrows, and a series of melting sounds. As the sound of dissolution continued, the crossbow arrows began to sink slowly, slowly sinking deep into the ground, one centimeter and one inch, to the tail feathers.

"Poof!"

When the sinking of the crossbow bolt finally terminated at the end of the arrow, Merlin, who was already crumbling and unable to control his balance, fell to his knees, and then fell head-on to the ruined ruins. As he fell, the few fragments of purple energy that had finally surrounded him finally disappeared into the air.

"Hehe......" After falling to the ground for a long time, Merlin let out a dry laugh full of bitterness, "I didn't die at the hands of the killer who chased me, but I almost died in the ninja's trap house...... Haha, hahaha!! ”

[Speaking of which,] Wizil's voice sounded in Merlin's head at an inopportune time, "You don't seem to have entered someone's room yet......]

Merlin moved his neck, raised his head slightly, and raised his eyes to the threshold of the house that was close at hand, but he could not say a word.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

The sound of a loud explosion outside the machine house spread throughout the dojo without reservation, but it was very strange, whether it was a ninja apprentice practicing in a nearby courtyard, or a full-fledged ninja honing his skills in a row of houses a little farther away, none of them were distracted by the explosion, and none of them were puzzled by the commotion. It's as if nothing is alive, they are still immersed in their own world, busy with their own business.

Perhaps, there are a few people who are exceptions.

One of the exceptions is a female ninja with a hard slab. As she exploded and shook, the flat female ninja was walking silently through a dark corridor, and she only shook her head slightly when she heard and felt the commotion, and then quickened her pace.

The second exception is a plump and proud green ponytail female ninja. At the time of the explosion, she was hidden in the courtyard of the machine house that Merlin was about to enter, and as the second person besides Merlin to sense the explosion at close range, she stood still in the roar and vibration, not even the slightest change in her inaudible breathing, as if she didn't care at all. It was only when the aftermath of the explosion gradually dissipated that the green ponytail female ninja who had an inexplicable hatred for Merlin clenched her fists fiercely, and her bright eyes flashed with an increasingly dangerous glow.

The third exception is the middle-aged ninja who is so ordinary that even ordinary and ordinary can't be accurately described. The middle-aged ninja was sorting out the letters in his study at the time of this change, and when the sound and vibration of the explosion reached him, he cooperated and stopped what he was doing, waiting for the noise to subside before continuing his work.

After carefully folding a few letters and storing them close to his body, the middle-aged ninja said as if he was emotional, "Sure enough, it's very lively......

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Perhaps because he didn't feel very good on the ground, Merlin got back to his feet after a little breathing. Covered in gunsmoke and mud, he didn't care about his appearance, first glanced at the ninja yashiki that was just a few steps away from entering, and then looked back at the small courtyard that was completely in ruins. There was a burst of apprehension in my heart.

From the gate of the courtyard to the closed wooden sliding door in front of him, even if you count the winding distance of the stone slabs, it is definitely no more than thirty meters, but in such a short distance, there are so many deadly mechanisms buried in such a small garden courtyard! The thought of this made Merlin feel his scalp tingle and his throat itch.

When he thought of the trap house in front of him, how many more dangerous and unbelievable things were waiting for him? Merlin didn't even dare to think about it anymore.

[Well, if you have already decided that you have to break into the Yashiki of the light red ninja,] Vizl, who is in the position of staff officer, will soon start to solve Merlin's problems, [It's not impossible. 】

"Tell me about it." Merlin looked back again with trepidation.

[Instead of passive defense, it's better to take the initiative!] Wizil's tone was slightly demagogic, [Speaking of 'sabotage', I don't think there's anything better than your abilities. So we just just demolished this trap house! Whatever......]

[If you want to go head-to-head with the Crimson Ninja, you should follow the idea of some idiot with a big head.] Just as Vizir was talking lively, Reiko interjected in a flat voice, "I promise, the consequences will be very exciting. 】

[Then burn it!] Wizil continues to preach extreme/end/violence/force.

“……”

[Drown it!] 】

“……”

[Crash it!] 】

“……”

[Do you have a head just to look taller!? Finally, unable to stand the wrath of Vizl's nonsense anymore, it let out a shrill scream at the top of its throat, "You idiot! Idiot! A sucker! There is no ......] A series of high-end text special application techniques that subverted the consistent image of Reiko and the knowledge reserves of Merlin and Wizil caused Merlin and Wizil to fall into complete silence.

When a large number of words that were not suitable for direct appearance or even indirectly indicated that if they appeared inadvertently, they could only be covered with "beep-" or blocked by mosaics, which were shocked and wandered in Merlin and Wizel's minds, after a lot of leaks, Lingzi finally returned to normal.

【…… So,] it regained its charming voice, [Merlin, you must not listen to that "beep-" guy, you can only obediently enter this machine house and honestly accept the ninja's test. Use your own strength and your own will to break through this houseship!! 】

"My strength, my will?"

[That's right. Reiko's voice was once again full of seduction, "Use your power to blast a path through the inside of this house. 】

[Wait!] Wizil suddenly shouted and interjected, "Why can you blast out of the passage from the inside, but you can't blast in directly from the outside! Isn't there an essential difference between your idea and mine? You "beep-" ......] Wizir decisively used the high-end and profound language skills that he had just stolen from Lingzi.

[Of course, there is an essential difference. Reiko didn't seem to care at all about the words Wizil used, [blasting in from the outside, this is the most direct and naked declaration of war against the ninja. Pushing the door to enter means that we are willing to follow the ninja's intentions and respect their wishes, as for what specific means we will take to break through the test...... Hehe, it depends on the individual's ability. 】

"That's right." Merlin walked to the door of the machine room while brushing away the smoke from his body, raised his hand to hold on to the door frame of the sliding door, and pushed the door open from right to left with the only force of his palm, "Just let me see the ...... in this room"

Before he could finish his sentence, he saw a huge metal ball swing out of the dark door, and this huge metal ball was covered with cold spikes with three edges, four edges, and even more edges. With a whistling sound, the huge spike ball slammed into Merlin's upper body. Looking at that stance, it seems that it is intended to penetrate the thin Merlin directly.

When the thorn ball appeared from the darkness until it was clearly reflected in Merlin's lenses and eyes, Merlin didn't make any big moves, he just pulled the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing an ugly smile.

At this moment, the energy brought by this heavy metal spike ball with great impact had already blown through Merlin's cheeks and body, and one of its seven-edged spikes with a cold luster was facing the middle of Merlin's eyes, only about a centimeter away from piercing Merlin's glasses and then piercing Merlin's facial bone.

But it was this last centimeter that became an obstacle that the thorn ball could never continue to overcome. The ball of thorns stopped in the last centimeter, unable to advance even a micron of distance.

Merlin, who was maintaining that ugly smile, jerked back the corners of his mouth, and then walked directly into the room with his right leg, seemingly oblivious to the behemoth in front of him, and the dangerous weapon that could be turned into a killing blade at any moment. He just used his face and body to meet the huge ball of thorns frozen in mid-air.

With his right foot and his body leaning forward naturally, Merlin's face narrowed from the spike. At the moment when the two were already close to each other, there was a sudden tooth-sore ** sound from the huge thorn ball. Immediately afterward, the thorn ball shrank inward as if it had been violently pressed by the huge palm of nothingness, and then began to twist and collapse inward.

"Bang"

Merlin's right foot stepped into the wooden floor of the machine house, followed by his body, his left foot, and the whole of Merlin walked into the machine house. The ball of thorns hanging in the air was now gone, and only a thick iron chain dangling from the patio fluttered gently above Merlin's head.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Breaking into the ninja yashiki and fighting the various hidden weapons used by the ninjas to protect their lives and pass on their secrets is definitely not an easy task. Ordinary ordinary people facing a powerful ninja trap house may not be able to walk a few steps before blood is splattered on the spot. Even a skilled ninja who has been immersed in this art for many years will have to pay a lot of price if they want to get through a "living" trap house hosted and driven by one or even more ninjas.

For Merlin, however, the task did not seem so difficult.

Now that he had decided to blast through the house, Merlin had put aside any psychological burdens and scruples for the time being, and was bent on carrying out the idea of destruction, and walked firmly and slowly in this seemingly ordinary but in fact dangerous house, or more accurately, floating.

Except for the first step, which was to walk into the house, Merlin never touched anything in the house with his own feet, and his feet remained at a constant distance of ten centimeters from the ground, whether it was a corridor, staircase, threshold, or anything else, he swept under Merlin's feet.

Even though he was suspended from the ground, Merlin still maintained a "walking" posture, taking his steps step by step in the void, and each "landing" sparked a series of mental waves that distorted the air form from under his feet, impacting the floor and walls.

And Merlin's upper body, which maintained a marching posture, was not idle. The five fingers of his left hand were put together into a palm, and the palm of his hand was straight under him, and there was surging power secretly accumulated in his palm. Merlin was building up this strength for emergencies and using his left hand to help maintain balance and balance in his body. And his right hand was held flat in front of him, his five fingers were slightly open, and in his palm, a circle of majestic mental power fluctuations kept surging outward, impacting, shaking, and shattering the surrounding qiē.

Merlin doesn't really need to rely on body movements or body extensions to unleash his telekinesis, but he is willing to choose this way to unleash his terrifying abilities, presumably in large part because Natsu likes to use dramatic, exaggerated body movements to unleash her abilities.

There are three ways for those who are capable to unleash their abilities, namely, consciousness, sight, and movement. If we insist on dividing the three pathways of release into superior and inferior ways, consciousness is undoubtedly superior to sight, because it is difficult to interfere with. And the sight is undoubtedly stronger than the action, because it is difficult to predict. As for the action, although it looks "handsome", it is actually full of flaws.

Merlin's ability to release is mainly aided by consciousness and sight, and as for the movements, it is entirely for the purpose of poor imitation, pompous performance, and deliberate deception. However, in the eyes of unknown outsiders, Merlin's ability to release is mainly dependent on movement and then supplemented by sight, all because he deliberately makes too many small movements when he uses his ability. I have to admit that at this point Merlin has succeeded in deceiving most people, even most of the capable people.

Hanging in the air, Merlin wantonly unleashed his extremely malicious telekinesis towards tangible entities, whether it was wood, slate, metal, or anything else, as long as Merlin's telekinesis touched it, these things were inevitably destroyed from their original tangible form, until they could no longer be destroyed and turned into nothingness.

Floating all the way, Merlin left an incomparably clean, perfectly circular hole in the trap house, and there was nothing left in the "tunnel" that he was allowed to pass through.

The green ponytail female ninja hidden in the shadows witnessed the whole process of Merlin's creation of this circular tunnel with frightened eyes, and aside from the sense of terror in her heart, Green Ponytail finally understood why this seemingly thin young man would affect the nerves of so many people and attract so many people to look at him.

The horror of Merlin's power could not eliminate the green ponytail's disgust and hostility towards Merlin, but out of fear of the terrifying power, the female ninja could only grit her teeth and terminate her plan to make trouble and teach Merlin a lesson, and after summoning her companions hidden in other parts of the house, the female ninja left the place decisively.

"Broke through our trap house in such a destructive way......" The green ponytail ninja who was left last at the time of the evacuation turned her head to look at the trap house for the last time, and muttered to herself, "It looks like we have to add another account between us." As she spoke, the female ninja kicked her feet and flew up to the eaves, then silently trampled on the tiles and disappeared into the courtyard.

Merlin, who was in the trap house, continued his work of opening tunnels, what hallways full of traps, what tilting houses, what mirror rooms, what rooms with transparent walls, what maze of despair...... A qiē obstacle was turned into nothingness under Merlin's mental power, and a qiē obstacle was cut out of a circular tunnel by Merlin with his mental power.

By this point, all this test had become a cliché and not funny joke.
