Chapter 2: The League of Exorcists and Changes Not in the Plot
The first step in the strategy is to put on a high-profile appearance, and the key is to build a strong image in the eyes of others. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
In this crisis-ridden world, the strong in strength are undoubtedly the most respected. As long as he is strong enough, others will naturally accept him, defend him, and even obey him.
Now, the purpose of the first step has been perfectly achieved. In just a few minutes, he left a strong impression in the hearts of those people that was no less than that of the Shikata Kawa Jian, who had been in business for decades.
But if he wants these people to be used by him, then that alone is not enough. Taking advantage of his familiarity with the plot, Lin Yuedong has further plans.
The urban structure of Xianjinyi is very much in the atmosphere of this crisis-ridden era, and everything is prioritized by efficiency. From the castle tower in the center of the castle, there are more than a dozen roads leading to the outermost castle wall, and there are horizontal roads connecting them in different places depending on the situation, dividing the Khenjin Post into many different squares.
A variety of dwellings and functional buildings are clustered into these blocks, making the overall appearance of the Golden Station a bit like it was planned in SimCity.
One of the great advantages of this kind of planning is that it is easy to remember, and Lin Yuedong only walked once, and then he wrote down the road from the factory to the castle tower and the surrounding terrain for later use.
While observing the terrain near the castle tower, he came across a building. The building looks a bit like a side hall of a small temple, with a man guarding the door with a gun.
He remembered that there was a place in the anime, a prison or something like a prison in the Golden Station. In the anime, when Ikoma was beaten, Kabane's body tissue fell out of his bag, and he was regarded as a spy related to Kabane, and he was locked up here.
However, this time Ikoma was lucky not to be found and was not imprisoned, replaced by the man who was almost shot earlier.
Seeing Lin Yuedong passing by, the man hurriedly shouted: "Engong, Engong!" Thank you so much for today! Great kindness and great virtue cannot be repaid. ”
Lin Yuedong walked over and said nonchalantly: "It's nothing, I'm just not used to it." ”
The man said gratefully: "It's a gesture for you, but it's a life-saving grace for me!" Eun Gong, my name is Shinro Matsuzaki, just call me Matsuzaki. ”
Lin Yuedong nodded: "My name is Lin Yuedong." ”
Matsuzaki Shinro suddenly said: "It turns out that it is Tang Jun (Note 1) imported from Shangguo, so I will call you Lord Lin." Lord Lin, actually, I was not hurt by Kabane. If they shoot him, he will really be wronged. ”
Lin Yuedong was not surprised by this. In the anime, he was shot, but Kabane couldn't be killed with the bullets of the steam gun, because the membrane around the heart that sustained his life was harder than steel, and the bullet would bounce off when it hit, and it would not be fatal to attack other parts. So from the fact that he died, it can be seen that he did not actually become Kabane.
Lin Yuedong said lightly: "I said, it's nothing. ”
Matsuzaki Shinro said reverently: "Kindness is not expected to be reciprocated, it is really the bearing of a person in the kingdom." Actually, Lord Lin, I want to ask, are you from the Exorcist Alliance? ”
Lin Yuedong was stunned: "What is that?" ”
Matsuzaki Shinro said with a little regret: "Ah, it turns out that Lord Lin doesn't know? I thought you had that kind of strength, and you must be from the Exorcist Alliance. ”
Lin Yuedong asked cautiously, "What is this Exorcist Alliance?" Why do you think I'm from the League of Exorcists? ”
Shinro Matsuzaki explained, "The Exorcist Alliance was formed by some people with superhuman abilities to fight against Kabane. That's why I think that's because you have that kind of superpower. ”
League of Superpowers?
Lin Yuedong frowned. You know, in the original work, there is no such alliance at all!
No, don't say anything about the alliance, in fact, there are no people with superpowers. If I have to say, in the later part of the plot, Ikoma went berserk and threw a train with his bare hands to throw a shockwave, which seems to be a superpower, but there is a reason for that, and it only goes on a rampage for a short while.
There is no superpower setting at all in this series, it is said that Lin Yuedong's current strength is almost enough to crush the entire plane, why did he suddenly jump out of such an organization?
Lin Yuedong faintly had a feeling that "he can run into something wrong wherever he goes".
"You talk about this alliance carefully, and tell me everything you know." He commanded without question.
"Yes." Shinro Matsuzaki agreed very happily, "First of all, may I ask your lord, do you know about the Kakata people?" ”
Lin Yuedong nodded: "I know this." ”
The Kakata crowd is the army led by the villain Ama Ama, who relied on strong personal qualities and advanced weaponry to clear Kabane all over Japan, and Kabane was swept away everywhere he went, and was known as the "Liberator".
"The Exorcist Alliance, an organization similar to the Kakata Clan, is also active all over Japan to deal with Kabane." Shinro Matsuzaki explained, "They call themselves exorcists, and they all have very powerful superpowers like you, and Kabane is no different from a three-year-old child in front of them.
"It's just that they have only risen in the last two years, and they don't shoot much, and the few shots are in some destroyed posts, and there are not many witnesses, so they don't have a good reputation outside. I was also rescued by an exorcist before, so I learned of their existence. ”
Lin Yuedong rubbed it and greeted *** No wonder the Sifang Chuan Jian General was not surprised that he could fight the cold air before, it seemed that he also knew the existence of this exorcist alliance.
This is something that is not in the plot, and there is such a change, which obviously shows that the world has been changed by some people once. When I arrived this time, I am afraid that I will not only have to deal with the enemy's efforts to try to change the plot, but also have to deal with the places that have changed, and the difficulty coefficient will increase by one point.
But this alliance sounds interesting, and I might be able to use it a little bit to unite them to my side. The combat effectiveness of superpowers must be much higher than that of ordinary people.
"I'm interested in this organization. Where can I find them? Lin Yuedong asked.
"There's no way they're looking, my lord, their whereabouts are very secretive." Shinro Matsuzaki said respectfully, "Because they have strong individual combat power, they don't need any helpers when dealing with Kabane, so although they are said to be an alliance, the members often go it alone. ”
"Then there's no way to reach them?" Lin Yuedong frowned.
"There's one, my lord, just need to wait." Shinro Matsuzaki replied, "Do you know the Kikyo print?" ”
"Sunny Kikyo Print?" Lin Yuedong confirmed.
The Kikyo seal is a prayer charm invented by the famous Japanese onmyoji Abe Harumi, which is generally a five-pointed star, representing the five elements of heaven and earth, and is generally used as a talisman.
"Exactly." Shinro Matsuzaki said with a little surprise, "I didn't expect Lord Abe's reputation to have drifted across the ocean, and even Tang Jun knew about it." The logo of the Exorcist Alliance is the superposition of the front and back of the two bellflower seals. As long as you draw such a pattern on the outside of your residence, the Exorcist Alliance will naturally come to you if anyone sees it. ”
"Two bellflower prints on the front and back?" Lin Yuedong thought about it in his mind for a moment, "It looks like it's almost a ten-pointed star?" ”
"yes, that's probably it." Shinro Matsuzaki confirmed, "According to the exorcist, the positive position represents the five elements of yang, and the reverse position represents the five elements of yin. ”
Lin Yuedong pondered: This statement is a bit interesting, it seems to be a symbol specially designed for the resurrection of such a thing as Kabane. In this way, this exorcist alliance is likely to have a bit of a background in the Yin and Yang Dao.
He thought for a moment and asked, "Then how do their members communicate with each other, and do they wait for the same?" Isn't it inefficient? ”
Shinro Matsuzaki recalled: "No, there was another way for them to communicate with each other. When I was rescued, there were many people with me. The exorcist, considering that it would be difficult for him to protect us all by himself, took out a stone, and without knowing how to do it, the stone was illuminated, and then about a few hours later, another exorcist arrived, and together they escorted us to safety. ”
The members of the alliance can quickly get in touch with each other with that glowing stone, which means that they are likely to have some technology beyond this steampunk era, either magic or black technology.
In this case, there is a puzzle that can be solved:
Lin Yuedong had been thinking about it before, the wooden pen said that he could use the stone given by the God of Golden Flame in this world, but no one had used that kind of stone in the original plot of Jia Tiecheng, and there was no place to show that he could use that kind of stone, where should he go to find someone to use it?
Now that I think about it, most of it is going to fall on this Exorcist Alliance.
He asked a few more questions, and found that this was all Matsuzaki Shinro knew, and said, "Thank you for your information, it is very useful to me." ”
Shinro Matsuzaki looked very happy: "That's great." It's an honor to be able to help my benefactor. ”
Honoured...... Is it?
Hearing this, Lin Yuedong suddenly had an idea: Shinro Matsuzaki is obviously very grateful to himself, and it is estimated that it will be easy for him to do things for himself. Wouldn't it be useful to use this person as a pawn controlled by himself and arrange it in the protagonist's team?
But before he could figure out how to use it, he heard a loud bang suddenly from the west side of the Xianjin Station, followed by an earth-shattering explosion, and the flames went straight into the sky!
"What's wrong?" Shinro Matsuzaki was startled and turned his head to look over.
"That's it......" Lin Yuedong muttered, also looking in the direction of the firelight.
According to the plot, tonight, there will be a car that was occupied by Kabane, but because of a coincidence that it was still driving on the track, Juncheng called Fusang City crashed into the Xianjin Station, causing the Xianjin Post to be broken by Kabane, and everyone in the city had to take the Iron City to escape.
Now this explosion, I think that's what happened.
Sure enough, when the skyrocketing fire finally began to dim, the alarm bell in the city rang suddenly, and the piercing bell carried a hysterical smell, which made people very uncomfortable.
"The alarm bell for Kabane's attack!" Shinro Matsuzaki immediately heard it and exclaimed. The guards next to him immediately grabbed their guns and ran out, not knowing whether to go to the front line to resist or simply flee for their lives.
Lin Yuedong smashed the wooden fence with one palm and pulled Matsuzaki Shinro out of it: "It seems that Kabane rushed in, let's go quickly, go to Jiatiecheng, there is the only way to retreat from the Xianjin Station, it will definitely be safer." ”
"What about you?" Shinro Matsuzaki asked.
Lin Yuedong thought to himself, so why don't you need to ask? This is a big scene of zombies attacking the city and people panicking, and it is the best time to brush up on prestige. When he rescues those people in a bloody battle, it is estimated that he will be able to worship him directly, and he has the prestige of being a survivor, how can he miss it?
Of course, he thought so, but he couldn't say that, so he casually made a reason: "I'm going to save people." There will be a lot of casualties in the city, and I can't sit idly by. ”
"Adults are kind and admirable." Matsuzaki Shinro didn't know Lin Yuedong's thoughts, and when he heard what he said, he was awe-inspiring and said admiringly, "It's a pity that this body's strength is weak, and I can't follow the adults, I can only wish the adults and the royal martial arts!" ”
Lin Yuedong waved his hand: "You too, take care of yourself." Let's meet in Tiecheng, and when the time comes, maybe I still have something to ask you for help with. ”
