"I think, I think...... It's a little scary. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

The priest girl hugged her staff tightly, so frightened that she almost cried. But even in the close-knit psychic web, none of her teammates responded to her.

The group of five of them were now silently following behind the sassy girl in front of them, tense their faces as much as they could and remain expressionless, and quickly walked through the corridors, up the stairs, all the way to the top of the watchtower, which should be the living place of the city lord, or at least where he was now.

“……”

“……”

The air was quiet, save for the sound of dull footsteps and the clash of armor on guards in the distance. Maybe it's because of the guards who patrol or stand guard on both sides from time to time, maybe it's because of the curious maids who seem to be young and innocent but actually exude energy fluctuations, or even maybe it's because of those guys with a strong and unhuman aura who seem to be the nobles of this Far Eastern country......

Anyway, because of blah, blah, bla That is, at this time, there should never be any superfluous mannerisms, especially extra actions, words, and even expressions that may cause misunderstandings-

Only when you are in the middle of it will you understand how terrifying the castle tower of the Far East is as the only ruling body.

This large castle built during the Warring States period served as a military tower and watchtower, and was also the residence of the castle lord. And when this solid military defense facility belongs to a monster lord, it is even more impossible to guess with common sense. The contractors who had gone through many crises were even more keen, with an almost intuitive perception, aware of the dangers hidden everywhere inside this tower, which was not at all like a castle with the daily life of ordinary people, but more like a heavily guarded underground cell.

Although it is said to be a castle made of stone and wood, it is more often a large unprocessed natural stone, and wooden structures are relatively rare, and it is easy to walk inside such a stone castle to mistake yourself for a solid and gloomy dungeon. And the most important thing is that these castle buildings, which should have been built with ordinary natural stones, are naturally incomparably strong and indestructible to ordinary people, but they are not much tougher than paper paste for the contractors-

Maybe only the power of the mind, the military advisor who usually does research work, does not have the power to directly destroy the stone wall of this thickness, but once he draws his weapon, he can easily tear it apart.

But this is just a normal situation, in fact, no fool will suspect that this castle is just an ordinary castle after realizing that his attributes, abilities, and even equipment items have been suppressed. It was as if they were vampires who had entered a church with the power of the Light, so they had reason to suspect that the foundation of the castle was probably a giant circle, and that some special materials were probably embedded in the ordinary stone walls......

At least, it's definitely not as fragile as it seems.

If you don't recognize this correctly, you are likely to hit your head and bleed in the next action.

It was precisely because of this reason that everyone's faces became extremely ugly, and they felt that they might have really done something wrong this time and chose the most stupid way. No matter how much the other person behaves and doesn't discriminate against humans, it doesn't change the fact that the other person is a high-level legendary creature, which they think is true in theory. This kind of self-choice to take risks, and then run headlong into the extremely terrifying existence, and that existence is not necessarily a completely harmless thing, makes the hearts of the five contractors beat a drum.

And such an uneasy mood, after following the girl in front of him for another ten minutes, finally reached a certain critical point. Because the corridors are intertwined, there are torch candlesticks that are a little out of place at intervals, and there are also tall guards with resolute faces at intervals, and the sliding windows and doors look very luxurious......

But this view is repeated all the time, which seems very abnormal.

- No matter how you look at it, this castle shouldn't have such a large interior space.

Finally, Zhuge also took the initiative to speak in the chain of his heart, and soothed the gradually restless emotions of his teammates in time:

"The castle tower that I saw from the outside is very problematic, not only is the wall very neat and beautiful. The perimeter is smooth and there are no uneven burrs, especially the corners of the fence are made of arithmetic masonry for alignment. But this masonry method was invented by Kato Kiyomasa, which is the so-called Seisa stone wall, but that guy was not born at this time...... If that's all there is, it's nothing, after all, this is not the original history but the history of this world, and with the existence of extraordinary powers, many things may not necessarily be explained. ”

"In addition, the castle tower seems to have a connected layout, and although it is still centered on the main horse and is located at the highest point in the castle, it is actually connected by two separate castle towers with a corridor in between...... But even if it is, it shouldn't be like this, there are too many repeated views of the places we pass along the way, and many places are 100% similar, like copying and pasting...... But it's not an illusion, it's a real space......"

With such a strange entry point, it is said purely to arouse the topic.

Although Zhuge was a little reckless in his suggestion this time, as a wise man and a person with spiritual ability in the team, he was still relatively qualified. As he spoke slowly in the chains of his mind, the emotions of the others calmed down. But of course, this is not because there is any calming power in this guy's voice, but because he is using the group skill of calming the gods with the help of the state of mental connection.

"However, my probe detected relatively anomalous gravitational values and spatial curvature, well, due to the conditions, I was not able to get specific and accurate data, but I only noticed that there was a problem with these two parameters...... Don't look at me like that, put away your disgusted gaze, I'm neither a scientific researcher nor a pure academic, and I haven't been involved in such an esoteric field—" Zhuge pushed his glasses, and the reflection on the lens flashed, "If it's not bad, the space here is probably stretched by a strong long-range force." ”

“…… Mastering the High Legend of the Space Realm? The crowd changed color slightly.

However, the man with glasses silently pushed his glasses again, looking at the petite girl in front of him, and his eyes were extremely confused with the help of the reflection of the lenses. He always felt that this girl seemed to be a little familiar, but with such an excellent appearance and ability, no matter how you look at it, it shouldn't be unknown. - Although he racked his brains, he was already in the wrong direction from the beginning, so Zhuge still couldn't successfully remember the true identity of Akechi Mitsuhide.

After all, this is the era of 'fifty years ago', there are no more clues and precursors of the background of the big era, and he is only a mortal after all, and there is not much possibility of directly discovering that this is a celebrity who should shine in history, and ...... Gender differences.

"When you arrive, the lord of the castle is in front of you......"

At this time, the girl's faint voice woke up everyone who were thinking about it, and they raised their heads to see each other turning their heads slightly, and said, "Although the city lord doesn't care about those worldly rituals and details, I think it is necessary for you to prepare in advance, so come in later...... Of course, if you feel ready to come in now. ”

With that, Akechi Mitsuhide walked forward, went to a room at the end of the front, and pushed the door to enter.

Zhuge shrugged helplessly at the inquiring glances from his teammates, and then his eyes inadvertently swept out of an open window, and saw a flag fluttering in the wind, and the details of the past that had been ignored by him appeared in his mind like lightning, and he blurted out in amazement: "Water-colored bellflower pattern?!" …… Is this lord of the city a man of a wise family? Although he subconsciously lowered his voice, the people present were so keen that they all heard such a sentence.

The girl's footsteps paused slightly, and then suddenly became more brisk.

Many times, the opportunity for a stranger to look good about you is simply because you inadvertently say something he or she likes to hear......

Zhuge who didn't know that he had made the other party's perception of himself a little better, shook his head and said to himself: "Maybe I think it's wrong...... Or is it a pure coincidence? But it's strange that youkai also use family crests......"

"Should we ...... now?"

The captain asked in a deep voice, but the second half of the words were not spoken, they don't use the power of the mind as communication now, anyway, at such a close distance, if the other party is a high-level legend and has mastered the space realm, he will definitely detect such fluctuations.

Zhuge 's psychic ability attainments are far from the strength of the legendary level, since this is the case, it is better to communicate directly, anyway, as long as they don't say something that shouldn't be said, their reaction is at most vigilance or distrust, but it is also normal.

"Let's go in, we're all here, can we still turn around and leave?"

They have made a choice, which means that there is no choice in the next step, although it is very offensive to rashly ask to see some big people, but they have already been received and turned away, and the latter is the real fatality. The former may only be blamed, while the latter will be executed outright, and there is no other possibility.

Preparing each other, the captain taking the lead, the five of them entered the room with great caution and a semblance of deference.

Then, they were all shocked.

There is nothing abnormal in the space behind the door, and there is no terrifying monster entrenched in it, let alone a powerful momentum that destroys the sky and deters everything, or something like a strong realm that is full of force...... It's just a simple study-like room, surrounded by a few bookshelves, and on top of it, like the desk in the center of the room, there are all kinds of paper books or a few bamboo slips.

- It's just that in the eyes of a few people, those books and bamboo slips are flashing with various colors of light, blue, purple, and gold.

It was as if he had entered a room full of skill scrolls, and the bodies of several contractors who couldn't restrain themselves stiffened, and their eyes instantly sparked. But when they glanced at the 'person' sitting lazily behind the table, they all immediately shivered, and then quickly restrained all their bad emotions, suppressed their expressions, and looked at their noses and hearts.

It was an ordinary person on the surface, and he didn't seem to have any strength in his body.

With magnificent pupils like rubies, the other eye is covered by waterfall bangs and half of his face, and he is wearing a cyan robe with a faint dark cyan snake pattern on it, exuding a mysterious ancient meaning. It's just that the golden dragon's headdress on the top of the other party's head made several people feel a little stunned, because although the other party's body has the feeling of a dragon snake, the dragon component should not appear...... But this is just an intuitive feeling, and the next moment they feel that everything in that 'person' is so natural.

That's how the other party should be.

The other party must be like this!

Inexplicably, several people's subconscious minds are flooded with such cognition, as if this is the orbit or trajectory of everything, which is natural but does not need to be doubted. Just as the sun and the moon are self-evident without any burning, the stars are self-ordered without being listed, the birds and beasts are self-generated without man-made, the wind is automatic without fanning, the water is self-flowing without pushing, the plants and trees are self-born without being planted, they breathe without breathing, and their hearts beat without heartbeat......

Pei Chen glanced at Wise Guangxiu, who was naturally standing on the side, then put down the book in his hand, squinted his eyes slightly and looked at the five people lined up in front of him, with a gentle and calm smile on the surface, but he was full of malice in his heart. He arranged the next thing, but the five guys in front of him suddenly came to the door and disrupted part of his plan, although he didn't know what the other party was taking the risk for, but this did not prevent him from squeezing out all the value of several people.

"Excuse me, how many of you want to see me...... For what? ”

Quickly sorting out his thoughts, because it was a whim, so Pei Chen didn't have any good ways for the time being. Although the other party is not worth mentioning in His eyes, he is a substitute for another dimension after all. Maybe before they became stronger, the space didn't pay much attention - so it gave itself the opportunity to test unilaterally like it now - but once they did it without any cover-up, that space would inevitably react immediately.

It's like a person who doesn't usually care much about his fingernails, but if someone cuts them inexplicably, won't he feel it?

Thinking of this stubble, Pei Chen couldn't help but sigh, and at the same time hid the infinite regret in the depths of his eyes. You know, he is very interested in another space that is equally mysterious, but has no means to directly control his own space. It's a pity that in order to ensure that more important things can be carried out as he wishes, he had to give up the idea of directly arresting the few guys in front of him and extracting souls or something......

But it doesn't matter, the coming day is long, and the other party can't run away.

"......" The captain, who only felt a chill, couldn't help but shiver again, but he felt that his reaction was normal.

The 'person' on the other side was too ordinary, without any momentum, without any energy fluctuations, and even as if the vitality did not exist, as if there was only a shadow projected on the current space-time node. But that huge entanglement of sin karma was still under his special vision ability, revealing a faint outline, which made him tremble uncontrollably: infinite sin karma!

This is definitely not an adjective, but a fact. It is not a sin that can only be obtained by killing a country, a continent, a race, or something alone, but the evil act of killing the planet and destroying the world.

But the captain has not yet reached the level of being able to recognize this substance, he just feels that the evil karma entangled in the other party's body is beyond imagination and terrifying, and the lives killed by such an existence are simply countless, such an existence will really be a very negotiable character? The most important thing is that there is no name displayed on the other party's body, as if the reincarnation space has not detected the existence of any creature in front of it at all, or is it simply a real shadow?

What level of monster is this?!

"Huh~?"

I don't know why, although the tone has not changed significantly, but through that '~', everyone subconsciously stood up straight, became energetic, and focused their attention like never before.

Taking a deep breath and instantly discarding all unnecessary and superfluous thoughts, the captain recalled the few simple strategies that the wise man had formulated earlier, and quickly chose one of them. He pondered his words and said, "City Lord, it's an honor to be able to ......."

"Let's get down to business, I don't like to hear those polite words." Pei Chen interrupted with a smile.

"......" Captain was choked for a moment, then paused for a moment, feeling a little unaccustomed. But he still quickly calmed down, skipped the stage of compliments and politeness, and slowly said the intention of himself and the others: "We only came to your subject country today, and then we happened to meet the order issued by you...... We hope to be able to do our part for your hegemony and contribute our own meager strength, but, but...... We want to be paid more appropriately. ”

The meaning of this statement was very clear, but what he said was very awkward. After all, the reason why language arts are necessary is because the communication between people is free of polite words and lies, and there is really nothing without unnecessary nonsense.

"Really? Do you want to get more benefits? Pei Chen was not surprised at all, nor did he show any displeasure, he just nodded clearly to show that he knew, "So, what do you hope for, stronger strength, more territory, and longer life...... Higher status? ”

Seeing this scene, several people who were worried felt that the big stone in their hearts gradually fell to the ground, Zhuge was right, monsters are generally not averse to the pursuit of desire, in their opinion, this is simply justified. It's good to communicate with them directly and explain the intention, too many words and unnecessary politeness will make the other party annoying.

"If you can, that's for the best." The hooded captain couldn't see his expression at all, but his voice was unusually sincere.

“…… I don't hate enterprising guys, but ...... Do I have to give enough value to my giving? Pei Chen chuckled, luring the other party to take the initiative to step into his trap, which would reduce the protection of the rules of the space to the limit, "-In other words, what value can you show?" Or more specifically, what do you want from me? ”

"I assure you, it's definitely worth it......" said the captain in a deep voice, he was now representing his own team, "because of some previous experience in the West, I have mastered some special powers, and I can use this power to fight for you, my lord, but ...... It's also for some reason that this power of mine is limited......"

This is the more risky method that Zhuge said, if you rely on the power of spatial repair, you can wash away that hellish cursed state, but it requires a huge number of points. Therefore, it is not unavoidable to use the power of powerful plot characters to achieve their goals, and once successful, their captain will be able to immediately have legendary level combat power.

The only question is whether the characters in the plot are capable of solving the problem.

But in general, it is not a loss, once the other party can't solve it, they will retreat to the next best thing, looking for something valuable that can improve their ability as a reward, and the other party who has already rejected a request before should not refuse the second request and even take the initiative to compensate a part.

It's just that......

Pei Chen directly lay down, pressed his chin on his arm and watched everyone, not caring about his demeanor at all. But the words that came out of His mouth did completely startle several people: "I see...... Your soul is entangled in the power and will of the higher devils, and you have fallen under a curse! Do you want me to help you lift that curse? ”

The captain seemed to be completely stunned, and nodded subconsciously: "Yes, yes—"

- "Unknown energy intrusion detected!" The effect is unknown! The level is unknown! ”

The prompt sound of the reincarnation space had just sounded, and before he could react, he felt a slender and powerful palm directly through his hood, inserted into his eye socket and touched his soul fire. A violent sense of crisis had just been born, and before he could make any move, the pain of tearing his soul came, and the whole person trembled and collapsed.

Pei Chen gently withdrew his palm, and a dark forbidden aura was caught between his fingers, constantly floating and changing, revealing the faces of various resentful spirits.

There was no transmission of sound waves, but the tearing pain was present on the souls of the four contractors at the same time, and they heard the urging magic sound, like the scream of a banshee, and as soon as the actual cursed power appeared, it launched an unguardable soul attack!

Everyone only felt a flower in front of their eyes, a pain in their ears, and then they fell down bleeding.

"......" looked at the angry will inside the curse power in his hand, Pei Chen first raised his eyebrows in surprise, and then laughed out loud all of a sudden, "The harvest seems to be ...... It's even better than you expected. ”

He backhanded the materialized curse and sealed it, then his eyes wandered back and forth over the few people who had passed out on the spot.

"The potential is good, it is necessary to continue to squeeze ......"

"Guangxiu, take those people down and settle them, this guy stays......" Pei Chen's eyes flashed, looking at the captain in the cloak and hood, "The movie version of "Ghost Rider"?" It doesn't seem to be too strong...... However, I have a natural foundation that can be transformed and strengthened, and by the way, I can also show them what kind of power I can give......"
