The group set off again towards the top of the Monster Mountain, which would take more than a whole day for ordinary people, but there were no ordinary people here, so it didn't matter.

The mountain is the sphere of influence of the Tengu, and as a very social youkai, they will attack them in groups once outsiders invade, but fortunately they have a life-shooting pill in their team, so they are not attacked by the Tengu.

Passing through the tengu's dwelling, as the altitude rises, the surrounding vegetation is completely unveiled, and the smoke from the top of the mountain is far away.

Because there was always smoke coming out, the sky above was blackened, making the neighborhood look like it was in a dark cloudy place, and the light was dim.

Shiki didn't see the tengu around, and it seems that even youkai don't want to stay in the area on the edge of the crater.

Finally into the range of the summit, because the mountain is so large, there is still some distance from the crater.

"It's finally here."

Marisa moved her body, as if she had been sitting on a broom for too long.

"Find the prisoner before it gets dark. I don't want to spend the night here. ā€

Reimu wields the Imperial Coin.

"Shall we split up and look for each other?"

Sanae mentions yƬ said.

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ā€

Shiki looked around.

"What's wrong?"

Shotmaru Wen inquired about the text.

"No, just thinking about the fact that in the story you usually split up, someone is bound to have an accident."

Shiki said unlucky things lightly.

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ā€

With the blessing of the four seasons, everyone began to split up, and the area on the top of the mountain was not small, and it was not difficult to hide something, so they had to look carefully.

Shiki stretched out his spirit to cover the surroundings, but this action was difficult. The range of his perception was not as large as expected, nor was it as precise.

"Is it because it's the abode of the gods?"

Shiki thought of the reason, under the influence of the power of the gods, the mountain itself was different from ordinary places, and it may not be obvious in other places, but the crater rim was different.

Shiki was unable to search his surroundings quickly, but he didn't stop immediately.

The reason why it will be affected is because of the confrontation between different forces, so maybe it should be done differently.

The four seasons have been part of the planet at one time, and no one knows the concept of the earth better than he does, and even in different worlds it will not be completely different.

He leaned down and pressed his hand to the ground.

The planet is alive, the earth is alive, the mountains are alive, and the so-called animism of all things is alive, so it communicates with this spirit......

The consciousness of the four seasons flowed into the ground, and then he heard the breath of the mountain.

"Ahh

A sudden scream sounded next to him interrupted Shiki's thoughts, and he immediately gathered his consciousness and looked in the direction from which the scream had come from.

At the other end of the mountain, Shotimaru fell to the ground, attracted by the sound, and everyone ran in the direction of Shotimaru.

"What's going on?"

Reimu asked as she took out the rune paper.

"I'm so dizzy~~~"

Shotimaru was lying on the ground and moaning (anti-harmony), but she was able to speak and didn't seem to be too badly injured, except for some scorched marks in her hair, and a smell of ionization came from the air around her.

Shiki looked around at the Shotimaru Bun, and an inconspicuous point of light flashed by.

"There's something!"

In an instant, the four seasons had already made a move, and suddenly that point of light was fixed in mid-air.

The others all looked at the point of light as if they were facing a great enemy, it was not too big but the size of a fist, but the blazing fire in it represented its high temperature, and it floated in mid-air like a fierce fireball.

"Is that the thing?"

Marisa asked, turning her head.

"It's okay anymore, I grabbed it."

Hearing Shiki's words, the others were relieved.

"Uh......"

Shotimaru covered his head and tried to sit up.

"How are you?"

Sanae asked, holding on to the shots of the pill.

"Not good."

Shotimaru's face was a little pale.

"It's like rushing to draft all night, but the manuscript paper was splashed with water and worked all night."

To be able to make such a vivid analogy, it should be nothing.

"The power in your body is used up a lot."

Shiki checked it for a while, and then made a judgment, and now the state of Shotimaru is a bit similar to the state of ordinary people when they are anemic, but she consumes the power in her body.

"Is that the thing messing with it?"

Reimu looked at the little fireball that was caught by Shiki.

"I'm afraid so."

Mentally moving the small fireball in front of him, it struggled incessantly, but it was completely unable to break free from the shackles of the four seasons.

The four seasons observe this thing, it is a living being, just like birds, beasts, insects, and trees, except that its body is composed of fire.

"What is this?"

Reimu leaned over to look at the fireball.

"If I'm not mistaken, this should be the Flame Spirit."

Shiki said to Reimu and them.

"The Spirit of Fire?"

"Huh? Seems to have heard of this name somewhere. ā€

Marisa looked puzzled.

Seeing that Reimu still didn't understand, Shiki then explained.

"The Flame Spirits, also known as the Fire Vampires, are an alien race. They look like fireballs, made entirely of flames. The surrounding objects can be burned with high temperatures. They absorb the life force of intelligent life as the nourishment they need for their survival, so they have earned the nickname "vampires". Organisms that have been drained of their life force will spontaneously combust and burn, and they can absorb not only life force, but also memory and knowledge. It's a very dangerous creature. ā€

"What?"

Shotmaru, who finally came to his senses, covered his somewhat charred hair, with a look of fear.

"It's good that I didn't burn up."

"It should be that the contact time is too short, and your strength is stronger than it. If it weren't for the sneak attack, it should be possible to deal with it lightly. ā€

"Well, what you said at first was so scary, I thought it was so powerful."

Reimu breathed a sigh of relief.

"It looks like it's the culprit of the fire, and I'm afraid it's something that escaped from the demon book, right?"

"I didn't expect to catch it so smoothly."

Marisa looked a little disappointed.

"It's wonderful."

Sanae nodded in agreement.

"It's supposed to be a prisoner. However, the monomer of the flame essence is really not powerful. ā€

Shiki continued.

"But one of the things they have is that they're basically social people."

"What do you mean?"

Reimu looked at Shiki with a stiff expression, and she had a bad premonition.

"In other words, there are likely to be many such flame essences."

Shiki told the bad news. (The novel "Dimensional Interventionist" will have more fresh content on the official WeChat platform, and there will also be a 100% lottery gift for everyone!)
