Chapter 738: First Appearance! Magical boy Pei Chen
Coral originally thought that if he closed his eyes this time, he would be truly forever. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
People have never been afraid of having nothing, but of having to nothing, and even more so of life. - Death is so lonely and worthless.
Death is not gentle at all, only endless darkness and loneliness.
Death is obviously more terrifying than anything else, and it is creepy!
"Don't ——!!"
So she woke up from the darkness of nothing, the eternal loneliness and death, her breathing began to rapid, and her body trembled, as if she had had some terrible nightmare. But before she could figure out what was going on, a slender white jade palm gently pressed her shoulder, so that she could no longer subconsciously struggle.
“…… W-What?! ”
At this time, Coral felt a tearing and fatal pain in his back, and there was no place in his body that was not painful. After losing the fragment of the Jade of the Four Souls, and also losing the unwilling spirit spirit, she now does not have the terrifying perseverance she had before. The back injury was too severe, and she had not been effectively treated, and now she had difficulty even moving her arms.
Kikyo holds a clay bowl in his hand, and in it is a sticky mass of residue and juice made from something that has been pounded into something, exuding a fresh smell of green herbs. She said lightly: "I advise you not to move now, your body is completely overdrawn, and because of the fragments of the Jade of the Four Souls, you have lost not only your vitality, but also your soul...... Burned most of it. ”
The essence of the tainted Jade of the Four Souls is pure 'evil', even if it is a fragment, it is not something that ordinary people can use.
To be precise, it is a life form that has not reached a certain realm, and it is impossible to truly use the pure power contained in the Jade of the Four Souls, and it is precisely because of this that this jade is considered an evil thing by people...... After all, even the power it bestows is false, what is it if it is not evil?
- Coral is like this, she thinks that the Jade of the Four Souls gives her power, but she never thinks that this is actually caused by the negligible jade aura, which ignites her own soul and vitality. Although she felt that her strength had been greatly increased in a short period of time, the jade fragment itself did not shed any power, all because of the huge 'heat' obtained by the burning of her own existential power.
And if Coral can't get out of this state in time, then when her own life force, soul and everything are burned out, her soul will be ingested by the jade fragments, just like the shrine maiden Tsuiko and the souls of those youkai who have been fighting in the jade, and will never be redeemed again.
Therefore, from the beginning to the end, the Jade of the Four Souls does not give any real power at all, it is just a false gift to the girl before her death, and the price paid by the girl is eternal torture after death.
"You, you're ...... The shrine maiden? Coral said with difficulty, trying not to completely cover her consciousness with the terrible pain, and tried to look around, and then found that this was her house in the stockade, and everything around it was so familiar. It's just that the former person is the only one left.
She felt a pain in her heart, and couldn't help but turn gloomy.
"Just call me Kikyo." The shrine maiden whispered, then looked at the mat under Coral that had been oozing red with blood from the struggling she had just done, and shook her head helplessly.
Kikyo turned around and called softly outside the door: "Pei Chen." ”
The monster in Tsing Yi sat lazily basking in the sun on the floor outside the door, and he also grabbed a cute little cat with two tails and amazing cuteness in his arms, and let it struggle desperately in his hands. At this time, he suddenly heard the call of the witch, so he stood up suddenly, and threw the mica in the form of a kitten out with both hands.
it!
Who are these people! No quality!
The mica, which was still struggling desperately, suddenly found that her body was fluttering and weak, and the wind around her was whistling, and when it opened its eyes to take a closer look, it had already slipped through a parabola in the air, and fell headfirst into the medicine garden not far away, and it was like a fluffy furball toy, bounced up and fell to the ground and rolled several times.
"What's the matter...... Kikyo-sama? When he entered the room, he saw the shrine maiden kneeling in the center of the room, handling herbs. Pei Chen immediately approached the bellflower with a courteous smile, his eyes sparkling, very deliberately contrived.
“……”
The shrine maiden turned her head slightly in frustration, and leaned back and raised her eyebrows, she was not used to being so intimate with youkai in front of people. She continued to handle the herbs in her hand, and Slender Jade pointed to the coral on the couch on the side: "Help her clean up, her wound is cracked again......"
"Wait, wait! Why did he ...... "Although Coral is still in a sad state, his heart suddenly beat faster when he heard such a sentence, and let such a man clean up his body? She subconsciously wanted to object, but when she saw Pei Chen turn her head to look over, that thoughtful look made her feel even more flustered.
Then, there is no then.
"Smack!"
Pei Chen snapped his fingers casually, and with a single thought, he corrected all the details of the spatial area where the coral was located, deceiving the world's perception of that space. He has no interest in really helping Coral clean up step by step, and the bellflower is on the side, isn't he looking for death if he dares to do this? It is precisely because of the convenience of her own ability to make her wish come true, that the shrine maiden will ask herself to do this, instead of really letting herself take advantage of something......
“……”
Coral was even more confused, she only felt a flower in front of her, as if the surrounding environment had been refreshed, her clothes had changed into another set, and the mat under her body had obviously become dry, and the wounds that had just cracked were not only re-bandaged, but even the oozing blood disappeared without a trace......
What's going on, have you lost a memory?
She became more suspicious.
"Hush." For the girl's eyes, Pei Chen also narrowed his eyes slightly, he looked at the other party's suspicious gaze, and felt a deep slander from the depths of his soul for no reason. He didn't say anything, though, just looked back at Kikyo and waited for instructions on his next step.
At this time, the shrine maiden had also taken care of the herbs in her hand, and her medical skills were already very good, and during the time of the infinite space, most of them were also studying this aspect. Therefore, although she rejected what Pei Chen said before, the simple method of directly coming to the Great Resurrection Technique and Holy Light Healing, she still had a safer and more reliable way to pull the coral that should have died back from the ambiguous and blurred realm of life and death.
It's also because her storage space is locked together, otherwise she has a lot of elixirs in her hands that are flesh and bones of the dead and dead.
"Next, I'm going to re-medicate her......" The autumn-like eyes looked at the monster quietly, Pei Chen blinked and understood, and then exited the house knowingly.
……
……
Musashi country, people see the city.
In the past two days, the people in the City Lord's Mansion have discussed the most, and there are just a few things that come and go.
For example, these days, it is said that there is an extremely vicious murderer haunting all over Wuzhou, and the corpses of the creatures he slashed will come back to life and become the march of the dead; For example, in the last few days, the vision of the full moon that used to hang in the sky day and night has disappeared, and some people say that it is a terrible monster that has been resurrected; For example......
Anyway, in such an era, there is neither a TV nor the Internet, and electromagnetic signals can only be extraterrestrial radiation, people can neither go to the forum post bar to irrigate, nor can they go anywhere to square dance, and they can only chat and gossip through chatting and gossiping, to relieve the pressure of life on weekdays.
- But recently, they have another topic, that is, the matter of the young master seeing the Yin Knife.
The name of the Yin Knife is not very good, and he has been weak and sickly since he was a child, but his temperament is very gentle, and it can be said that he is loved and supported by everyone in Renjian City. Therefore, when he slashed and killed the previous lord of the castle who was occupied by the monster, it was smooth sailing in inheriting the position of the old master, and he did not encounter any obstacles, and all the retainers and samurai were happy to see it.
But since yesterday the servants have noticed that his disposition seems to have begun to change markedly, and it does not seem to be a good direction.
In just the past two days, two retainers have been directly hacked to death because of some trivial matters, and he seems to have become moody, more and more vicious and violent.
Such a huge contrast naturally made the other people in the city can't help but whisper and become suspicious......
At this moment, people see Yin Dao living in the room where he once lived.
Naraku, who had occupied someone's body, was as heavy as water, staring at the two figures in front of him who were also kneeling in the room, one was a seductive woman in a bright and beautiful kimono, with fiery red eyes and turquoise earrings. The other is expressionless, with no demonic aura on his body, and his appearance is a white-haired Lori with plain white body, quietly holding a smooth and crystalline mirror that looks like moonlight.
This is Kagura and Kanna, the doppelgangers he just created......
But Naraku didn't show any joy at all, he was like a lion enraged by excessive panic, just trying to suppress his anger. Because although he did have the idea of creating a clone to help in order to collect the Jade of the Four Souls as soon as possible, he has not taken action all along, and this is not without reason.
- Because he is a huge evil half-demon formed by combining the pathetic human obsession with the monster killing intent that defies human beings. Therefore, his superior demonic power is unmatched, so he keeps repeating his ruthless evil deeds...... However, the latent human heart has always been there, and it is preventing him from becoming a true Great Youkai.
Only by completely obtaining the thoroughly polluted Jade of the Four Souls, and abandoning the lowly human heart inherited from the ghost spider, can he become a real great monster, not a half-demon with an Achilles heel.
Because it was originally a body that was fused with thousands of monsters and constantly evolved. Therefore, his most powerful ability is to continuously absorb monsters from the outside world, and then combine the powerful parts of these monsters, and directly abandon the weak parts to make himself stronger. However, Naraku has always only absorbed what can strengthen herself, and never takes any action that weakens her self.
And reorganize a part of your body and separate it to become a clone...... Such an act will weaken the demonic power he possesses in any case, the difference is only the extent of the weakening. That's why he has the ability to do this, but he hasn't taken the action of creating a clone, and he has to do everything he can to minimize the negative impact of this on himself.
But what happened this time is undoubtedly an uncontrollable and irreversible event that caused Naraku's demonic power to be greatly weakened......
He didn't expect at all that after he occupied the body of the Human Yin Knife, such an uncontrollable thing would happen - his body, demon power, and even the soul origin were divided by an inexplicable terrifying force, and then two clones were separated at once.
The weakening of demonic power is still a small thing, but what really makes Naraku feel the most chilling is that he doesn't know what the reason is at all, as if it is the desire in his heart, the chaotic impulse that his existence itself has decided at the beginning, is making him completely uncontrollable self-splitting.
However, no matter how much he checked, he could not detect the ancestral curse of 'evil' that emerged from the depths of his soul and etched the origin of his soul, because the essence of the 'evil' and words that carried the curse was his own miasma. Just like puffer fish and poisonous snakes would not be poisoned by themselves for no reason, Naraku naturally didn't notice what the miasma in his body was mixed into, and he didn't have the heart to bite into himself......
So, no matter how frightened he felt, he didn't check out any problems.
In the end, I can only blame my imperfect body, I am still a half-demon, and I have a fatal weakness......
"......" looked at the two doppelgangers in front of him with a gloomy face, and Naraku still had a trace of luck in his heart after all, because no matter what, the two clones in front of him were still manipulated by himself.
Just, is that really the case?
……
……
"The people of the village...... Everyone, are you all alive? ”
Untying the clothes behind his back, Sango, who had been medicated by the shrine maiden, suddenly said excitedly, almost bursting the wound again. If that's the case, I'm afraid there's nothing bellflower can do about it, after all, how much blood can a person's body lose?
The current coral is much more injured than the original plot, and if Sunset Kagome and the others are treated, they will definitely die. The blood left in her body now is less than one-third of the original, and most of the blood flowing in her veins is the pure spiritual power of the bellflower, and only in this way can she maintain her life.
Kikyo didn't care, but while carefully medicating the girl, he said softly: "He's not a murderer, if it's not necessary, his temper is actually very good...... Even if he really wants to slaughter the village, I will stop him, and you can rest assured in this regard. The villagers outside are still alive, and they have all come to see you during the two days you have been unconscious, so you can see for yourself when you are able to move freely......"
"Great, great...... They're all alive......" Coral was crying and laughing, emotional and incoherent.
The witch watched her vent quietly, and waited until she was finally a little quieter, and then asked hesitantly and softly, "Can you tell ......me what you met in Renjian City?" ”
Feeling the cool feeling on her back, the girl's expression darkened when she heard this, yes, although there was no problem with the clansmen in the village, but her father, brother and others who went on a mission with her were already dead.
"Don't you all already know?" She said in a deep voice.
Kikyo re-bandages the wound on Sango's upper back, and then replies, "To be exact, I want to know the exact location of Hitomi Castle...... I've always had a way of locating Naraku's exact location, but after you showed up, I couldn't tell anymore. He may have taken control of the entire city, and then raised a huge barrier, cutting off direct contact with the outside world......"
The girl frowned, shook her head, and said, "Aren't you sure if you let that youkai go?" If it's him...... Naraku is definitely not an opponent, right? ”
Speaking of this, Sango's heart suddenly moved, she seemed to have heard this shrine maiden call the name of the youkai before, and that name made her feel very familiar. But for a while, I couldn't remember where I heard it, but I vaguely felt that it was very important, and it was probably an opportunity to save all this misfortune by myself.
"He'll only be by my side, and he won't take the initiative to hunt down Naraku...... Because that guy is the target I have to solve with my own hands! ”
The shrine maiden shook her head slightly, reaching out and pressing her chest, revealing a somewhat strange look in her eyes, which was a surging black curse.
Coral didn't notice this detail, she just thought about it in a daze, and then was stunned to find that she couldn't remember the exact location of the city. The tragic scenes in my mind, the killing of my father and the killing of my younger brother, are still clear. But how he got to that city, or how he got out of that city, his memory of this is blurred.
"Really?" Kikyo pondered for a moment and said, "It seems that Naraku has already taken this aspect into account, so let's leave it like this for now...... You have a good rest first and don't think too much. She packed her things, then picked up the tray and was about to turn and walk out of the house.
But......
The shrine maiden was about to turn away when she was suddenly grabbed by Sango's wrist. She frowned slightly, and looked back at the girl with her head down and her shoulders shaking slightly.
"Mikome-sama...... You called that youkai's name before, I heard it. The suppressed voice trembled as if he was afraid.
Kikyo didn't have any expression on his face, just looked at Coral calmly and didn't answer.
"He's ...... That one, isn't it? Coral raised his head, his eyes full of anticipation and pleading, "The apex of the world's ghosts, the master of all the monsters in the world...... Isn't it?! ”
The shrine maiden probably understood what was going on, and there was still no expression on her face, but a look of worry flashed in her eyes. Kikyo hesitated, wanting to say something, but seeing the tears in Sango's eyes, faint fear and pleading, and cautious anticipation, she paused again, and finally just sighed silently.
“…… Don't make a wish to him, that's all I can tell you. ”
- Because those who prayed to him to be answered, and to be able to perform miracles at no cost, were only a handful of them, even if they included the shrine maiden herself.
Such an answer is sufficient.
Coral stared blankly ahead, not even knowing when the shrine maiden had left. When she came back to her senses, she trembled slightly with excitement, biting her lower lip desperately, and her eyes radiated an unprecedented radiance.
……
When Coral propped up its still-broken body and left the house in the dead of night to look for youkai, it was found that it was very easy to do. For the other party seemed to have known that she would come, and waited under the tree in front of her house.
"That...... You ......" Coral glanced around, the village was quiet, even the witch did not appear, at this moment she stammered and did not know how to tell her intentions. Maybe it's because I'm looking forward to it too much, so I don't dare to try it, for fear that I will get a negative reply?
Pei Chen looked at the girl in front of him with interest, and took the initiative to speak softly: "I already know your intentions, but the opportunity to make a wish is not for me to execute, I can give you this opportunity, you need to say it yourself, and the contract will be established......"
After a slight pause, he narrowed his eyes slightly: "Girl, at the cost of your soul, what do you expect?" ”
“……”
Coral stared blankly, and suddenly felt a shudder, as if under the body of this youkai in front of him, there was another person who was completely different from during the day.
Her intuition was correct, it was another personality that was temporarily in charge of the body in front of her, to be precise, it should be written as 'Pei Chen' and read as 'Cuppy'.
Because of the parallel world that has closed up infinite possibilities, and has gathered all the existential power called 'Pei Chen', Pei Chen's body has countless systems of different abilities that have developed to the extreme of seven stars, as well as corresponding life experiences, one of which is the personality of a different space-time isotope in the world of "Madoka Magical Girl".
- But what seems to be the route of the magical boy is actually the essence of the power possessed by the 'Incubator' clan.
That space-time isotope was the power it gained by invading the 'Incubator' clan, dominating the 'Incubator' clan, and finally controlling the 'Incubator' clan. For example, telepathy with the chosen one, having countless alternate stand-ins, and weaving a contract power that causes miracles according to the laws of the current world...... Wait a minute.
The current coral is the first time to use this ability after Pei Chen finished making up for it, and the first test product that was selected-
Because the essence of the power of the contract has been understood, now Pei Chen wants to experiment, if it is in another world with completely different laws, can he still follow the laws of the current world according to local conditions, change the policy of the contract, and continue to achieve the power to achieve miracles? As for whether he can create a magical girl, he doesn't care too much.
"Can you do anything?" Hearing that the price was actually her own soul, Sango's heart suddenly cooled in half, but she gritted her teeth and still asked.
"No, but I can still grant most of humanity's wishes, at least the miracle you pray for will be allowed." The youkai in front of him looked like a real god, and although he shook his head slightly, he said an answer that made Coral ecstatic, "-Say, what do you want?" ”
The majestic voice seemed to come from the distant sky, but it echoed in the shadows under the small tree.
"I ......"
The girl took a deep breath and said her wish, even if the price of this miracle was her soul.
