Chapter XXXVIII

The wind rustled through the nearby vegetation, and on a quiet night, only a faint glimmer of moonlight fell from the dense clouds onto the ground.

On the secluded path, there are two figures strolling leisurely, one of them is a graceful girl, actually holding an umbrella in such a night, and the teenager is wearing headphones, looking down at the road conditions under his feet, humming some unknown tunes, walking on this path.

In the moonlight, the beauty is picturesque, the long golden hair dances in the wind, and the dress and long skirt just highlight the girl's hot figure, and maintain such a noble and mysterious atmosphere, which attracts the teenager who listens to the headphones and can't help but quietly look sideways, looking at the girl's side face, a little distracted, the straight nose bridge, and the red and delicate lips, which seem to be revealing a white face like the moon under the moon......

"Do you have flowers on my face?" Purple blinked suspiciously, looking at the young man who was secretly aiming at her.

Chen Wei took off the earphones on one side: "Well, no, I just suddenly feel that you are also a very cute girl at this time." ”

A series of laughter like silver bells: "It's the first time someone has praised me like this, and I will accept your wishes." ”

Purple smiled like that,At this moment,It seems to have a rare lively atmosphere.,If at this time,With some cherry blossom petals,Dancing with the wind,It seems,This kind of scene,It should be a standard animation plot.,Probably,It's a pleasing thing to meet with such a girl.。 Although, at such a time.

"You really are. It's rare to smile like that. Chen Wei looked at Zi in a girlish posture and said softly.

"So. What a disappointment for you. Zi straightened her long blonde hair, then turned her head away. Look down at the looming pavement.

"Who is more beautiful, me or Ryu...?" Zi, who lowered her head, suddenly asked such a paragraph, which made her peers seem a little surprised, as if she didn't expect that she would suddenly ask such a question.

"Well, that's a really hard question to answer." The young man pondered bitterly, his expression solemn, as if he was struggling with this question.

Purple stopped suddenly. Then he turned his head slightly at a 45-degree angle, and in the moonlight, she could only vaguely see her right face, while the purple left side of her face was in the shadows, only faintly visible, but the purple eyes seemed to be staring at herself: "Does this question make you embarrassed?" ”

At this moment, it seems that the blood in the body is speeding up. The rate of the heart's beating has quietly increased a little.

"What are you thinking, she's Ryu's friend, and yours' friend. Don't get those weird thoughts! Cheer yourself up and don't think about those weird things! ”

While scolding himself in his heart, he showed a thoughtful look. Then Chen Wei replied.

"Well, how to put it. You and Ryu are two different people. The personalities are completely different, so there is no way to compare such things, just like sweet tofu brain and salty tofu brain, they all have their own audiences, so the same food will probably have a different taste, right? The boy finally found a more satisfactory answer.

Zi poofed and laughed again, it seems that her smile is very special today. It's just that Purple laughed really beautifully, it was with a very pure smile, like a blooming lily.

"It's really, funny, you always have these weird ideas in your head." The Great Sage's shoulders trembled slightly, and then he covered half of her face with a folding fan.

"Sometimes, I'm really envious, Ryu, the more you press on your shoulders, the more tired you become, but occasionally, if you can be like Ryu, it's good to pursue your own happiness." Purple said softly.

"Well, it's hard to maintain Gensokyo, isn't it? However, you are also enjoying it, in short, everyone works together to protect it, here, it's good, rest assured, the mutation will always pass. Looking at Zi's suddenly melancholy demeanor, he whispered a word of comfort, Zi is such a powerful monster, and he actually shows such a look, just like Liu, their hearts, in fact, are also very, very fragile.

Every girl's heart may be as fragile as glass, although she looks very strong on the surface, or she always likes to show her strength, but even the queen who is high up will probably have that grief that can't be concealed. The more powerful the woman, the more sad it is, just those famous female figures in history, or rather, the heroic spirits? In fact, most of them are in their hearts, they just choose to give up for a certain wish, but as a woman. Others will always see only them, the most beautiful and strongest side, however, when others can't see them, what is hidden is tears like pearls. It's a sad world.

For example, Joan of Arc, and Artoria? Pendragon, Wu Zetian and the like, Joan of Arc, in order to save their homeland, for loyalty to the people, finally ...... Burned at the stake, Artoria, in order to save Britain, in the end, this King Arthur was betrayed by his own people. Although they are all extremely powerful, they are still girls after all, even if they are sick, it is probably a complete helplessness. Purple, maybe that's it, in Gensokyo's countless black histories, witnessing one sad thing after another, and then erasing it... Erase other people's memories and carry them alone. It's really a girl who makes people feel that faint sadness.

"Don't make such a gentle look, this should be revealed to Liucai, isn't it too extravagant to give me words?" The melancholy on Zi's face seemed to be swept away.

"Ryu's words, probably don't mind, anyway, I often be a bad person." Chen Wei teased himself.

"Haha, probably, is it called the attribute of the Virgin? According to the novel. Such a protagonist is not likable. Purple teased.

"Ahh I'm not the Virgin, my hands. It's been covered with blood for a long time, in your eyes, it's the Virgin, probably in the eyes of the enemy, I'm the executioner, right? ”

"Wait...... After this is over, come with me to the flower field to have a look. Zi said abruptly.

"Hanada? Is that the abode of the powerful youkai called Kazami Yuka? Ha, you're full of powerful monsters here. ”

"Well, that guy. Although she is usually less approachable, if ordinary people move her flowers casually, there will not be many good ends, but she is actually a good person. ”

"Are you just giving someone a good person card?" Secretly complained. Then Chen Wei stopped.

"Looks like we've arrived at our destination." He looked down from the mountain, and four or five hundred meters away, there was probably an anomalous cemetery. However, at this time, no one came, and the silent cemetery seemed to have been abandoned for a long time. With Chen Wei's eyesight, he can see that the cemetery is overgrown with weeds and there are many tombstones. All of them have been damaged, and the iron fence next to the cemetery is dotted with Hideyoshi. It's full of dust.

"It looks like an abandoned place. Do you think there could be a ceremony today? Chen Wei asked Zi.

"Who knows, I'm not one of them, but I feel that the dark element here tonight seems to be very dense, and it seems that there should be some ulterior secret here.

Suddenly, Zi frowned: "Usually, there should be some spirits wandering around here, but today, there are no one, this seems to be a little unusual." ”

"Wait patiently, waiting is a virtue, in short, when those guys appear, you will understand, yesterday, you also seem to have a surveillance here, they seem to have reached a critical moment in the past few days." Chen Wei said.

"I've been observing it for a few days, and I haven't seen that kind of ritual, but I feel that the activities of the dark elements have become more frequent recently, and I don't know if it's related to this." Purple said, looking at the location of the ceremony below.

"Armament space" Chen Wei opened his armament space, only to see a door opened, and then groups of puppet soldiers walked out.

"Huh? These? Is it human? Hey, no, they don't have much breath fluctuations on their bodies, it seems, like they look like dolls? Purple looked at the puppet soldiers in surprise.

Chen Wei smiled: "That's right, these are my masterpieces, puppet soldiers, they have been improved by me recently, Xiao Ai instructed me to enchant a magic array that can hide the breath, yes, you can try it today." ”

"It's really in line with your style." Zi looked at these puppet soldiers, and under Chen Wei's control, they marched towards the bottom of the cemetery in an orderly manner.

"Of course, I prefer this kind of battle to individual combat, using firepower to suppress the opponent, using 1,000 guns to suppress the pleasure of the enemy's gun. I'll tell you, that feeling, one word, praise. ”

"Staring ...... Summoner, it's really convenient. Purple pursed her lips very girlily, and then came out of a bench and sat on it, and then there was a small coffee table with a tea set on it.

"Well, just be patient." Purple said elegantly.

"Miss Yakumo Murasaki...... Are you here for an outing, or an outing, or an outing? Chen Wei thought for a while.

"Miss? Allah, I don't have that kind of pomp, have you ever been to the Red Devils? The vampire over there is called, the eldest lady, who is a maid and a nobleman. Purple chuckled.

"First squad, ambush to 201,305 coordinate point." Chen Wei slid helplessly with the tablet, looking at the beautiful purple, he really didn't know what to say.

"How about making me a cup of tea? I've heard that the tea you brew tastes very good. Miss Zi took the teacup and said to Chen Wei.

However, looking at the way the girl looked at her tablet, Chen Wei seemed to understand, and couldn't help sighing and waving his hand: "Then, it's better to be respectful than to obey your fate, eight ~ cloud ~ purple ~ big ~ small ~ sister." ”

Chen Wei opened the tea can, and when he smelled it, it was actually the taste of Zhengshan Xiaozhong black tea, and he couldn't help but be stunned: "Chinese black tea, are you used to drinking it?" It stands to reason that you should prefer to drink English black tea? ”

"I prefer to drink roasted tea, which is different from the eldest lady in the Red Devil Pavilion." Saying that, Yakumo Zi took Chen Wei's tablet, pointed to the control interface on it and said, "You dolls." How do you command? It looks like a lot of fun. ”

Chen Wei boiled hot water on the side, and then stood behind Zi. At this time, you can still smell the fragrance emanating from the purple hair, which is a little uncontrollable.

Chen Wei only said on this screen: "This sign." It's the infantry squad, this sign, it's the machine gun squad, this sign, it's the fire support group, like this, switch to the perspective of the puppet soldiers, and then you can also switch to the perspective of the drone like this, with a sensor device on it. You can see your military set-up. ”

"Eh, it's fun to look at, it's like, um, strategy games?" Purple blinked, like a little girl who had found a new toy.

"Probably, it can be understood as the same thing, and then you can give them orders here. After that, the puppet soldiers will carry out your orders, anyway, if you want to help me with the troublesome work, then you can do it. In short, don't let the opponent find out......" Chen Wei had no choice but to let Zi, anyway, he was watching from the sidelines, so there shouldn't be anything wrong.

I saw Purple commanding those puppet soldiers. Move to the vicinity of the cemetery and reach the bunkers where you can hide. A good ambush can be under the guidance of Chen Wei. But there was nothing wrong, and then the puppet soldiers formed a good range of firepower, covering the entire cemetery, and then ambushed one by one, fortunately, thanks to Xiao Ai, with the help, so the puppet soldiers have a new skill, lurking, plus there are not many life characteristics, so the concealment effect is simply MAX, as long as it is not found with the naked eye, just by feeling, probably even the opponent of the ground level may not be able to sense it.

Seeing that Zi was having fun there, Chen Wei shrugged his shoulders, and then it didn't take long for the fragrance of tea to diffuse, pour a cup for Zi, hand it over, and the girl who was having a lot of fun thanked her, and then looked at the interface with a focused expression.

"I don't see how interested you would be in this kind of thing." Chen Wei smiled bitterly, then poured himself a cup of tea, sat down beside Zi and said.

Zicancan smiled: "I always have to try something new, let's see, how am I arranged, isn't it perfect?" ”

"Well, this arrangement, it's very good, it's perfect, ah, you can put the machine gun team, and the support team a little farther away, they are more vulnerable, and, like remote-controlled combat vehicles, and drones, if you want to play, you can switch the mode and change it to manual control, if you don't control it manually, then they will stay in place and intelligently lock the enemy, and this mortar team, you'd better put it in a place where someone can protect it, as for long-range precision shooters, Just let it stay in a position with a good view, and you can also switch the type of ammunition here, for this mission, I have equipped them with some special bullets, but the number is not very large, you can save some use. Chen Wei sat next to Zi and patiently taught her how to use this thing.

"Sa, got it!!" As she played, Purple showed a sense of impatient excitement, as if she was thinking that those dark phantoms hadn't come yet, so that she could try the combat power of the puppet army.

After a long time, everything was arranged, and the two of them were on the mountain, sitting on a bench, drinking steaming roasted tea, and it looked really good.

It didn't take long for Zi to pull his clothes, Chen Wei looked over, and saw Zi pointing to the cemetery excitedly and said, "It's coming, it's coming!" ”

Chen Wei looked over and saw that in the bushes behind the cemetery, a group of faintly visible shadows appeared, and then those dark phantoms that were shrouded in darkness slowly appeared.

I saw that these dark phantoms appeared in this secluded cemetery one by one like ghosts, and some dark phantoms walked under the noses of the puppet soldiers like this, and some even almost stepped on the puppet soldiers. Both of them watched very nervously, but fortunately, there was no exposure.

"Whew." Both of them breathed a sigh of relief, probably, because Zi was finally able to carry out the first perfect ambush, and smiled triumphantly.

"What the hell are those guys doing?" Chen Wei frowned, only to see that there were a lot of white candles placed in the cemetery, and then a faint magic array appeared, a very bloody magic array, which seemed to be a terrifying magic array watered with human blood, exuding an evil aura.

"Those, it seems, are the missing villagers? And the weak goblins??? Purple frowned suddenly, looking at the screen, there were some dark phantoms displayed on it, there seemed to be some, still wearing the clothes of the villagers, and those weak goblins.

"They can't be turned into Dark Phantoms, are they?" Chen Wei frowned and said.

Immediately afterward, I saw some dark phantoms like walking corpses, which slowly appeared again, and then walked to the top of the magic array......

Some dark phantoms in black robes stood around...... Then, a stream of rituals began.

This seems, some kind of sacrificial ritual? Chen Wei said in a deep voice.

"Do you want to attack?" Purple asked.

"Wait?"

"Don't attack yet, let's see what strange rituals they want to perform, attacking now will startle the snake!" Chen Wei said.

"Hmm...... I can't help it. Purple smiled playfully.

I saw that in the magic array, the evil and dark aura became thicker and thicker, and it seemed that the moonlight was covered by an invisible darkness (to be continued......
