Chapter 7: Spirit Bones

Near Kyoto, in the middle of the mountains that are inaccessible.

Deep in the forest, vines are thick, and the tall canopy stretches its branches and foliage with all its might, soaking up every inch of sunlight.

This is a forbidden place for human beings.

Unknown weirdness exists here.

A pillar of light that ordinary people could not see flashed, and there were seven or eight more figures on the ground.

Deep in the silent and uninhabited deep mountains and dense forests, under the shade of layers of tree canopies, sunlight is scarce and visibility is low.

Although it was noon, it felt like the twilight of the evening.

Not only is there no cicada chirping, but there is also an eerie and heart-wrenching atmosphere.

The only man standing in the crowd, dressed in a silk antique kimono and carrying a sharp katana at his waist, frowned and muttered to himself:

"The missing main god function is too unstable, and it hasn't been delivered to the safe area?"

Looking around, all kinds of strange smells, big or small, far or near, rose like light smoke.

"Is this the demonic aura of the Toei monster? The first time I saw it, it really meant something, it's called fear, right? ”

Through the keen perception of the Godslayer that he had strengthened, he carefully felt the "mana" that was vulnerable.

"Fear, the fear of the unknown in the human heart, is one of the sources of power for the birth of monsters, which is very similar to the original totem belief."

"It's no wonder that the yokai of Toei are called fallen gods, and the way in which they were born is actually a negative worship of faith, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the evil gods born with fear as the root cause are gods."

"But ······"

His face was a little strange, as if he was laughing, but he endured it, stretched out one hand, and from the rotten grass not far from his side, he took out a little girl in green clothes and pulled it to him:

"The power of this primitive belief is inevitably spread too thinly, the sky, the earth, the woods, the water········ There are such little things like this in almost every place, is this the so-called animism? ”

One of the philosophies of Shinto is the belief that everything has a spirit, that every plant or tree, even a piece of paper, can have a spirit.

As a result, the belief in all things in nature is evenly distributed everywhere, and the result of thinning is the birth of a large number of weak and vulnerable monsters······· Genie.

In Dongying, monsters, elves, gods, the relationship is intricate, often you have me, I have you, there is no shortage of two or three identities, and even the identity will change with the season.

The famous kappa, after entering the mountains, will become a mountain child, most often in winter, and then return to the water to become a kappa, and those who witness its changes will meet great misfortune.

A mountain boy is a youkai or elf that only exists in a fixed season.

The little monster in green struggled with all her might, and then the strong divine aura on the man's body made her freeze in place, shivering.

It's a pity that the man is tired of playing.

"I don't know how to lift!"

As the agent of the Lord God, the successor of the Lord God, he will surely be a great man with a reputation throughout the world in the future.

It was her blessing to be lucky enough to notice this little monster.

If you still want to escape, you will be cut off from heaven and earth.

The man squeezed it with one hand as a matter of course, and the little girl in green was erased by the huge magic power and disappeared without a trace.

This kimono samurai dressed as a man, and then turned his attention back to the few figures lying on the ground.

"In the past, I was a solo pioneer, and the efficiency of collecting the essence of creation was low, and after several enhancements, I couldn't make ends meet."

"Facts have proved that no matter how strong a single person is, there are always places where there is not enough professional knowledge or skills, which could have been easily passed, and the result turned into an armed conflict in the end········ If I had a team with good ability at that time, I could have saved a lot of time and unnecessary armed conflicts. ”

"Although after strengthening the mana physique of the god killer, the learning speed has greatly increased, hundreds of times that of ordinary people, but the learning is really hard······ If you can be lazy, why should you learn it yourself? How cruel is it to force yourself to become a super student? It's better to raise a few broilers with good ability, solve those tedious little things for me, and I'll be mainly responsible for becoming stronger. ”

"Don't be too smart, directly arrange a mortal task to die, and give up directly if you're too stupid, you have a skill, and you're not the most smart with a brain, you can pay attention to it for a long time."

Just as he was thinking, the crimson mark in his palm heated slightly, and then the mechanical synthesized sound sounded like thunder in the ears of everyone on the field:

"The main god agent releases the main quest of this world."

"Main Mission 1: Survive for twenty-four hours."

"Description: In the silent night, in the ancient times of the deep mountains, the ghosts and spirits are rampant, and it is a strange world. Please leave as soon as possible and find a human settlement, or you may be in danger of being left in the dark. ”

"Reward: 100 points; Penalties: None. ”

"Note: If you think this is a joke, you can make a joke with your own life, stupid people always live short in the reincarnation world."

"Side Quest: Collect Killing Stones."

"Description: The era before the big monster Tamamo has passed, and the demonic power in front of the sealed Tamamo has turned into a world-famous killing stone, please collect at least one fragment of the killing stone left outside."

"Reward: 1000~10000 (depending on the degree of completion, the more fragments collected, the more complete the reward)."

Seeing this self-brushed side quest, the kimono samurai man's face shrank and his pupils shrank, and he was a little surprised:

"Tamamo has already turned into a killing stone?"

He sighed with some regret:

"It's a pity, I still want to understand the charm of the nine-tailed fox, the resistance of the godkiller can't be immune to the charm of the nine-tailed fox? It's worth experimenting! ”

Immediately, he looked at the few people on the field who were woken up one after another, and shouted impatiently:

"Newcomers, get up as soon as you wake up, don't lie on the ground, don't ask me if you have anything, think for yourself!"

"If you think about it, He has put everything in your mind, and he understands his situation before he speaks."

"I don't want to have a guy with a bad brain in my team for a while!"

His ill-intentioned eyes looked around, and the eyes like hungry wolves, as well as the undisguised evil aura, just passing by, revealed a feeling of choosing people to eat.

"This is not the Celestial Empire of the rule of law society, but the ancient Dongying Dynasty full of monsters, who can't figure out ·········"

"Hey·······

A college student with trembling legs and stomach asked everyone's thoughts:

"Yes, what will happen?"

He grinned, bared his sharp teeth, and made a cruel and bloodthirsty expression, and looked around at the crowd of different colors below:

"It's not going to be good······ But I will give up on him and leave him to fend for himself, and will not help him again! ”

He sneered a few times, laughing deeply.

Especially in the depths of the dark forest, the laughter is even more eerie and terrifying.

"Don't forget that this is the ancient times of Dongying, you are all people with no identity, even the slaves at this time are not as good, it is not an exaggeration to say that your deeds are suspicious, the city guards of any city can take you down at any time and torture you as a fine torture!"

"Even if there is an additional translation provided by the Lord God, your words, deeds, and living habits are out of step with this era, and you don't even have basic common sense of life in this era······· Without me, a veteran to take care of, it is not surprising that you will offend the nobles at any time and be hacked to death on the spot. ”

"As for those who want to fly solo······· The wild is a world of monsters, even in human towns, at night there are monsters rampant, and it is almost impossible to live alone! ”

"Let's put it bluntly, in this strange era, as a newcomer, you have no ability to act alone."

"Only by following me can you survive and complete the mission."

"If you feel wronged and don't want to be obedient, you can do it yourself, and I will never stop you from looking for death by yourself."

He went on to add a sentence with bad intentions:

"By the way, we have been targeted by the surrounding monsters, but they are just shocked by my breath, and they don't dare to make a ······ If you go it alone, I'm afraid you won't be able to walk 500 meters before you encounter a few monsters who want to fight for the tooth sacrifice. ”

Very good.

As soon as these words came out, the effect was obvious.

No thorn dares to jump out.

Nodding his head in satisfaction, he began to introduce himself:

"I am the captain of the Spirit Bone Squad, and the criteria for selecting future team members is not to be wasted, not to be stupid, not to be a virgin."

"Now, everyone, follow me and go down the mountain!"
