Chapter 41 Attracting Attention
Date: January 1, 2007.
Countermeasures Office Headquarters Building.
"The young master of the Saginomiya family has been back since yesterday, but she has denied the claim that she has killed the spirit, and only said that she is lost......" Jinguji Iris said while sitting in a wheelchair, looking through the documents in her hand.
"This news is not good news for us, because it means that the exorcist who killed the Class B evil train in a short period of time, and then left the scene without being noticed by anyone, I am afraid that there is someone else."
All the members of the countermeasures room were also present this time, and they were quietly listening to the speech of their room manager.
As with all "leadership meetings", all members of the strategy room need to be present if there is no special urgency.
However, it is doubtful that none of the members of the countermeasures room showed the slightest impatience, and there was no phenomenon of distraction, desertion, and sleep like the so-called bad students participating in the student commendation meeting and ordinary low-level employees participating in the year-end summary of the company that has nothing to do with them.
This probably only explains two things -
The first is that the prestige of Jinguji Calamus, the head of the countermeasure room, is very high, and all the members of the countermeasure room trust this mature beauty who has not been able to marry in her thirties, and respect her from the bottom of their hearts.
The second is that the public space inside the countermeasure room is not really large, and the main members are not really large, at least even the Jinguji calamus in a wheelchair is good, as long as you tilt your head slightly and effortlessly, and turn your perspective, you can clearly see anyone.
Maybe it's the first case, maybe it's the second case, maybe it's both.
Anyway, now everyone is quietly watching the head of the room and listening to her. Because Jinguji Calamus doesn't often come to the headquarters building of the countermeasure room, after all, her actions are actually very inconvenient, and more often than not, she communicates and negotiates with the government at the headquarters of the Ministry of Defense, and then remotely issues instructions to the countermeasure room and arranges work.
In other words, if there is nothing really important, she usually doesn't come to the strategy room for a meeting.
"Everyone knows that according to the records of the observation class, the situation of evil spirits in Kyoto has improved greatly in recent years, at least it is no longer as evil spirits as before-" Jinguji Calamus said, looking more serious than ever, "After that thing disappeared, we have not tested the spirit field reaction of Class A evil spirits, and even the probability of the appearance of Type B evil spirits has decreased significantly in the past two years. ”
As she said this, she nodded lightly in the direction of a certain long-haired exorcist girl.
"And even if it's a Class B evil spirit, our strategy room is not without experience in dealing with it perfectly, Huang Quan is very talented in swordsmanship, and with the Isayama family's treasure sword Lion King, it is enough to retreat a Type B evil spirit alone...... And when the young master of the Tsuchinomiya family, that is, Tsuchinomiya Kagura, joins, our strategy room will be able to establish a truly complete combat power system, which can fight against multiple Class B evil spirits at the same time. ”
This is not an exaggeration, nor is it a comforting word to reassure his subordinates, but ......
Yes, it is.
Now the absolute main force of the strategy room, Isayama Huangquan, her biological parents were killed by evil spirits since she was a child, and she was immediately adopted by the head of the Isayama family, Naraku, and was recognized by her adoptive father Naraku as the most suitable candidate for the next generation of family heads. She is known as a prodigy in kendo, and she is also a genius with magical talents, able to manipulate the spirit beast eagle through the sword Lion King, and has the ability to defeat Class B evil spirits alone.
The only regrettable thing is that her qualifications in spiritual power are a little worse, although she is still a middle-class qualification, but compared to her talents in swordsmanship and spells, it is really regrettable.
However, this aspect can also be compensated for by other indirect means, such as ...... The young master of the Tugong family, who has not yet grown up, not only has a good relationship with Huang Quan, but also happens to be able to make up for each other's strengths and weaknesses.
Tsuchinomiya Kagura's qualifications in spiritual power are very good, and she also has the killing stone inherited by her family as a spiritual power aid, and when she grows up in this aspect, it can almost be determined that no veteran exorcist can compare to her in spiritual power. In addition, the Tsuchinomiya family's strongest spirit animal, known as the dog god, has been passed down from generation to generation.
It can be said that when she joins the countermeasure room and joins forces with the current Isayama Yellow Spring, it will be enough to deal with most of the supernatural disaster sabotage activities.
But......
"But! That's for the future.,It's optimistic that when the young master of the Tsuchinomiya family joins the countermeasure room, it should be close to a year later! Jinguji Calamus suddenly raised her voice.
"And even if Huang Quan and her form a combination, it is impossible to solve any problem easily, just like the Type B evil spirit train this time, Huang Quan - do you think if you and that kid are combined in a year, will you be able to successfully solve this problem?"
Suddenly asked by name, the exorcist girl was only slightly stunned, and then she was not very flustered, but replied strangely:
"Of course, Director...... Even if it weren't for a year later, without Kagura's help, I'd be able to deal with a Class B evil spirit right now, right? ”
"It can be solved, but how long will it take?" Jinguji Calamus slowly asked the second question.
"Well, about twenty minutes!" Recalling his previous experience of removing spirits, Isayama Huangquan replied in less than a second, "Anyway, it won't take more than thirty minutes at most." ”
"Yes, twenty minutes at least, thirty minutes at most......," Jinguji Calamus said with a hint of emotion in her tone, "So if you and that girl were combined in a year's time, how much less time could that time be shortened?" ”
“……!!”
Isayama Huangquan's pupils shrank slightly, and she finally realized what the head of the room wanted to explain, and the comrades-in-arms around her were obviously aware of it, and their faces changed more or less.
Type A is the highest and most dangerous evil spirit known, not only has its own spiritual power, but also has the ability to dominate the lower evil spirits, and hates the world and all living creatures like all evil spirits, and has a strong and incomparable desire to destroy at the same time, but maintains a high degree of wisdom and rationality.
However, the "spirit" of this level has not appeared for ten years, and the last record was in the ninety-sixth year of the last century.
Therefore, the class B evil spirit is the most powerful "spirit" they face.
However, without counting the veteran exorcists, there are really not many exorcists who can deal with Class B evil spirits alone. Within the Kanto region, everyone knows that Isayama Huangquan is counted as one, her cousin is barely counted as one, and the little girl of the Tsuchinomiya family who has not yet grown up can barely be counted as one......
There is also the young master of the Egret Palace family who has only heard of the name and has never met.
It is said that she may be a little younger than the age of the little girl in the Tsuchinomiya family, but she is the only one recognized by the psychic industry and has the powerful strength to easily crush Class B evil spirits and even Class A evil spirits...... It's a pity that the other party's family is the guardian of Kyoto since ancient times, and the background is more than ten times stronger than the so-called old exorcism families such as the Isayama family, the Tsuchinomiya family, and the Iizuna family combined, and they can't look down on the countermeasure room at all-
No, it's just that they simply look down on the Natural Environment Bureau of the entire Ministry of Defense.
Jinguji Calamus has sent many invitations to the other party, but has never received any response.
"An exorcist who can solve a train on his own in just four or five minutes, no matter how much he overestimates his ability! And most importantly, we don't know anything about him...... Not only is it not an officially recorded free exorcist, but it also has nothing to do with those exorcism families that retain ancient traditions! ”
This is the reason why Jinguji Calamus is most worried, after all, the spiritual industry is not only the great and righteous exorcists who take the protection of mankind as their own responsibility, but also the evil transcendents who have mastered special powers.
"I hope you will pay more attention to the sudden appearance of the exorcist in the future, but you must also be careful to ensure your own safety, and don't act rashly, because it is likely to be a dangerous person of the same level as the heads of the major exorcist families-"
Jinguji Calamus said this very seriously, very seriously.
In the same way, this also means that from this moment on, the countermeasure room, or the Natural Environment Bureau, and even the entire psychic industry of District 11, will begin to pay attention to the traces and clues of a mysterious wild exorcist.
And although it was so obvious on the surface, the head of the room inevitably thought of other possibilities, and couldn't help but seriously consider whether it was feasible enough to bring the mysterious exorcist who suddenly appeared in everyone's sight into the countermeasure room.
Or...... I can...... I should......
Looking at the report in his hand, Jinguji Calamus's face gradually revealed a contemplative expression.
……
……
7,800 bonus points, two D-rank side plots and two C-rank side plots.
This is Mu Xiu's current full net worth.
Among them, there are a full 4,500 reward points and two C-level side plots, which are provided by the previous type B evil spirit, and the task of solving the source of the type B supernatural disaster released by the "main god" gives 4,000 reward points and two C-level side plots, and 500 reward points are the price of the evil spirit itself-
The head bounty of an evil spirit is comparable to the price of a Type D supernatural natural source.
It can be said that such a rich reward is worthy of Mu Xiu's previous efforts, but because it is indeed because the reward is too rich, he always vaguely feels that something is wrong there. But in this regard, he is indeed just getting started, and with the definition of the "main god" light ball for himself, he may be a reincarnation at the level of the beginner?
Therefore, it is normal for him not to understand the rules of many large light balls, just relying on the different tasks that the big light balls have released so far, Mu Xiu really has no way and no ability to summarize any rules from them. So after taking a closer look at his behavior and making sure that he didn't break any rules, he no longer cared about such anomalies.
Anyway, he didn't foul himself, and the "Lord God" had no reason to punish himself for no reason.
Besides, he really doesn't have any extra minds to distract now—
The boy is now in his own home, in his room, holding a kitchen knife with a cold glistening face on his face. The look of surprise and admiration on his face, people who don't know will probably think that what he is holding is not an ordinary iron kitchen knife, but a peerless divine weapon that can rely on the sky and slay dragons.
However, on the table in front of him, a deep cut in the center of a square iron ingot was enough to explain a lot. Who can be so cruel as to take a kitchen knife and easily cut a ten-centimeter-thick iron ingot in the middle like a turnip, so that it becomes two parts, left and right?
The most important thing is that he didn't use any explosive force to slash, that is, he pressed the blade against the front of the iron ingot, and then with a force, it was as if a red-hot wire was cut through the solidified butter, and it was easily divided into two parts, left and right, everything was so simple, easy.
The only thing worth noting is that he wrapped his armed color domineering around the kitchen knife.
"If the weapon color domineering is wrapped around the weapon, it can evolve into attack power-"
Muttering this, the boy picked up one of the iron ingots that had been divided into two pieces and threw them directly into the air. Two cold flashes of light, accompanied by a series of muffled sounds of heavy objects falling on top of each other, and four smaller iron ingots were added to the table, and the previous half of the iron ingots disappeared without a trace.
"Sharpness equivalent to enchantment +1?!"
