"The other party has artificially created a special environment suitable for the existence of the undead by adjusting the spiritual veins. Because it can only last for a short period of time, it is easy to be ignored if you don't go out of your way. ”

In the process of organizing the siege, Iizuna told the information he had investigated one by one.

"But as long as it exists, it will leave traces. According to these traces, some clues can be found, and the adjusted spiritual veins have some commonalities, and only places with this characteristic can release evil spirits. It is also clear which locations will be targeted based on this characteristic. ”

The siege was quickly completed, and everyone lurked and waited for the enemy to arrive.

Noriyuki Iizuna's Kanko God unknowingly penetrates into the target location, and they are more suitable for reconnaissance work than exorcists, which also facilitates the operation of the countermeasure room.

"Rice Tsuna."

"Huh?"

Hearing Sozaemon call himself, Iizuna Noriyuki was a little surprised, the other party is not someone who likes to chat.

"Have you ever thought about going back to the countermeasure room?"

“……”

"That thing is in the past, you should think about it."

After talking to himself, he stopped talking, which made Iizuna Kiyuki feel powerless.

"It's almost time."

According to Noriyuki Iizuna's speculation, it won't be later than now.

"It's coming!"

Information was transmitted from Guan Hu, who was monitoring everywhere, and the number and appearance of the enemy were quickly locked. There were five people in total, three humans, and two undead.

"Action!"

With the order of Saemon, the exorcists surrounded him from all directions.

The purpose of this operation is to take down the opponent with lightning speed, and then annihilate the enemy in one fell swoop.

The opponent's reaction was quick and immediately counterattacked, but the disadvantage of numbers and the situation of being ambushed made them lose their advantage congenitally, and it was only a matter of time before they were defeated. The ability to hold on until now is all due to a diminutive evil spirit among the five people, and the robe on the evil spirit's body was destroyed during the battle, and the image looks like a slippery ghost.

In order to quickly deal with the opponent, Sozaemon launched a direct attack on the slippery ghost.

"Oh, isn't this the head of the strategy room?"

The slippery ghost who emitted the voice of an old man naturally had only an instinctive desire to destroy like a newborn evil spirit, and he kept wandering and avoided direct confrontation with Sozaemon.

Sozaemon didn't mean to say much at all, but the operational god launched an attack, and soon found a flaw and knocked the opponent away.

"Ugh!"

"Let's get caught. Say what you want to do! ”

"Huh. Purpose? It's very simple, just to collect companions. ”

"Companion?"

Because of the relationship between the Special Zone of the Undead, the evil spirits are released in this way, and if this is the case, it is impossible to do nothing after collecting companions.

"What are you going to do?"

"You'll find out in a moment, the work of collecting companions is done anyway."

“？！”

…………

While the countermeasures room is working hard to catch the culprit, a cargo ship leaves the harbor and is heading for the special area of the undead that has recently drifted to the Sea of Japan.

Due to the proximity of the Special Zone of the Undead, there have been many ships that have recently departed from Japan to trade with the Special Zone, and this cargo ship looks no different from other merchant ships.

At this point, the cargo ship has arrived within the territory of the Special Administrative Region and can enter the territory of the Special Administrative Region after obtaining the approval of the Special Administrative Region in accordance with the normal procedures.

But at this moment, the cargo ship shook a little, and a shadow appeared from under the sea, and then countless tentacles stretched out, wrapped around the cargo ship, as if trying to drag it into the water.

A monster with a size of more than a cargo ship of several hundred meters, this is no longer within the reach of normal creatures.

Soon half of the monster had surfaced in the sea, with countless tentacles and cilia, and a cylindrical body with round mouthparts full of fangs in the center, an extremely strange monster, this is a sea demon.

The sea demon's tentacles wrapped around the cargo ship, as if it was about to swallow it in the next second.

At that moment, the sea demon's body exploded, and a large piece of his body was completely sliced off, leaving only a round hole with scorch marks. The sea demon turned his attention to attacking himself, and there was a battleship from the last century, the destroyer Isakaze.

The strongest guards of the District of the Undead are the six undead warships left behind by the Four Seasons, who patrol the waters around the District every day. The moment the sea demon's aura appeared, Isokaze, who was in charge of the area, immediately rushed over.

Standing on the bow deck of the ship and observing the results of the first shelling, the sea demon was indeed damaged, but the damage was not serious, and the wound recovered normally and quickly. The opponent's strength is preliminarily judged to be a level A evil spirit.

Isokaze turned more of the cannon and aimed at the sea demon. The spirit-loaded ammunition glowed, and it flew towards the enemy in an arc across the sea.

Boom Boom! The sea water was splashed with a high splash of spiritual power projectiles, and after a round of shelling, wounds appeared all over the sea demon's body. Even if the recovery is amazing, it is impossible to withstand so many injuries easily, and it only takes a few more rounds of shelling to be wiped out.

The sea demon swung its tentacles and acted quickly, but instead of fleeing to the bottom of the sea, it wrapped itself tightly around the cargo ship.

“……”

Isokaze, who was preparing for the next round of shelling, stopped moving, and if he continued to fight, he would definitely attack the cargo ship.

She is the guardian of the District of the Dead, and she cannot injure innocents at will, except as a last resort, she must protect the safety of those who pass by.

Isokaze turned the bow of the ship and began to head towards the sea demon and the cargo ship, and the two had to be separated first.

Soon the two sides approached the distance of hand-to-hand combat, but fortunately she was not an ordinary battleship, and as an undead, even if she fought in close quarters, she had no problem.

The sea demon split some of its tentacles and tried to entangle the rocky wind, but they were shattered by the machine cannons, and the two sides became entangled.

After all, close quarters is what the sea demon is good at, and it will not be easy for Isokaze to take it for a while, but her goal has been achieved.

While they were entangled, the cruiser Yatsu had already arrived to help.

Because some of the tentacles had already been separated to attack Isokaze, it was very difficult for the sea demon to attack Ya Ya and entangle the cargo ship at this time, and it seemed that he was about to be separated from the cargo ship.

However, just as the goal is about to be achieved, Isokaze and Yatsuki are unexpectedly attacked.

Even when they are entangled with the sea demons, they are aware of the sea around them, so it is impossible for an attack from nearby to escape their eyes. The only thing that can attack them is their blind spot, which is the cargo ship waiting to be rescued.

The attack did not come from elsewhere, it was none other than a cargo ship.

It was not the human crew that ran out of the cargo ship, but an evil spirit, which rushed out of the cabin and jumped on Isokaze and Yatsu by taking advantage of the battleship's approach.
