Chapter 7 - Wiring

"Strictly speaking...... It's not very difficult to repair the Hakurei Great Enchantment...... It's just that the conditions are a little harsh, first of all, because the function of the Hakurei Great Enchantment is to completely separate Gensokyo from the outside world, that is, to separate Gensokyo from the world and become an independent small world...... So if it's a person in this world, due to some kind of restriction, there's no way to do anything on the Great Barrier of Boli...... Hawkers, maybe the dragon god has a way, and the gods who are at the same height as her can do it, but you must know that the dragon god hasn't appeared for a long time, and besides, it's impossible for me to get rid of people to help repair a big barrier, right? In the first place, the dragon god was able to allow us to establish this great barrier, which was already extremely gracious. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Sounds like you're scared of that guy."

"Ahaha...... It's a lie to say I'm not afraid, but I can't help it, there's such a thing as the Boli Great Enchantment...... We can create it, and it's true, but we can't further refine it after we create it...... Now, as time goes on, I'm discovering more and more unstable structures, and I'm dying. ”

"Oh...... Because the people of your own world have limitations, maybe the people of the other world will be less restricted? In this case, the requirement to be able to touch the Great Barrier of Hakuri will be reduced a lot, at least not to reach the height of the dragon god, right? Tang Yuan seemed to understand Yakumo Zi's words, "Then why don't you go to Shenqi?" ”

"Ah, little brother, you still know Shenqi? It seems that you know a lot of things, and it doesn't look like a person from another world at all......" Yakumo Zi looked at Tang Yuan and blinked her eyes, "She won't help us, after all...... The dragon god only allowed us to build the Great Enchantment of Bori, but it didn't allow us to upgrade the Great Enchantment afterwards. She didn't want to offend the dragon god like this. ”

"Oh...... I understand, so if something goes wrong at that time, the dragon god will only find me trouble? Zi Ma, it's not kind to you to do this. Tang Yuan stared at Yakumo Zi with dead fish eyes.

"So it's your freedom to help or not~ But little brother, why don't you know this but aren't afraid? That's the dragon god~" Yakumo Zi's eyes showed a hint of curiosity, "An existence that is more terrifying than me~"

"It doesn't matter, I can run at any time anyway, and I promise you won't find me unless I want to come again...... Now, I just want to know what grade the dragon god is compared to Utra...... At least I don't think that guy is like Utra, so awesome that he can make a mortal a god with just one name...... You say, if the dragon god knows Utra, shouldn't I ask the girl about Utra? ”

"I don't know." Yakumo shook her head very dryly, "Anyway, I don't know, maybe you can try to find other gods and ask them to help you decipher what those strange forces around you are all about...... Haven't you already gone to Kanako Yasaka and Suwako Ya? ”

"Uh... You're spying on me. ”

"Aha~ Little brother, don't be angry, come, let's do business~" Yakumo Zi pointed to the two enchantments in the sky, changed the topic, and said, "Little brother, look, over there~"

Tang Yuan looked in the direction of her finger.

The two enchantments in the sky seem to be the same principle of operation, but the realm of illusion and reality was created by Yakumo Purple herself, so she can control and repair it at will, but the Hakurei Great Enchantment is not known how it was established, according to the name, there is a Hakurei witch among the people who may participate in the establishment, and the Hakurei witch has a considerable possibility of being the main force in this matter.

I'm afraid it's not the first generation of Boli...... In the various second settings, it seems that the first generation of Bo Li is very terrifying, and Tang Yuan has even seen a version that can beat Yakumo Zi......

He saw that there was a very conspicuous gap in the place that Yakumo Zi was pointing to—what this barrier looked like to others, Tang Yuan didn't know, he only knew that in his own opinion, the two enchantments were showing the appearance of a kind of line, and some kind of shining energy was running along those lines, because the lines were too complicated, he couldn't tell where was the beginning and where the end was for a while.

However, there is a broken line in the gap that Yakumo is pointing to...... This is very vivid, anyway, Tang Yuan knew what he should do at a glance.

"I see, I just need to connect the broken wire, right?" He asked.

"Line?" Yakumo Zi tilted his head and glanced at Tang Yuan, "In your opinion, little brother, do the two enchantments exist in the form of lines...... Well, it doesn't matter, if according to you, there is a structural problem there that prevents the energy from passing through that place, then you can try to connect the wires...... You wait. ”

As he spoke, Yakumo closed his eyes again, and after a while, the red [Hakurei Great Barrier] dimmed, while the golden [Realm of Illusion and Reality] became even more dazzling.

For a moment, the sky was filled with golden light.

"Oooh! What is this? Tang Yuan looked at the vision in the sky and was stunned, reacting that this must have been made by Yayun Zi.

"I've closed the Great Barrier for the time being...... At the same time, I strengthened the inner realm of illusion and reality...... Otherwise, Gensokyo's existence will be exposed. Yakumo replied with her eyes closed, "Now I have to focus on maintaining the realm...... Little brother, even if you kill me, I won't be able to resist it, but shouldn't you hurry up and repair the Great Barrier? ”

"Ah...... Oh! I know......" Tang Yuan immediately understood what Yakumo Zi meant, and at the same time, he also understood why he had to bring Yakumo Blue out with him-when he and Yakumo Zi were both busy repairing the enchantment, Yakumo Blue was responsible for protecting the two.

So he also quickly unleashed his spiritual power, found the two broken threads, and tried to twist them together - this process turned out to be extremely difficult, and it had nothing to do with distance, these two enchantments did not have the concept of so-called "distance" in Gensokyo, so Tang Yuan's spiritual power could touch the enchantment even if it was only a few hundred meters away, but for some reason, when Tang Yuan's spiritual power acted on the two "threads", he found that it was much more difficult to move objects than usual with mental power!

"That's what it is...... Something higher? He knew that in fact, the two enchantments could not really be composed of a bunch of lines, and he also knew that the so-called "wiring" work he was carrying out was actually just repairing the enchantment in a way that he understood, but what he really didn't expect was that the repair work was really not easy.

Although he is now comparable to some gods in the world according to Yakumo Murasaki, he is still too weak to understand these things that mortals can't understand, and his own not strong power makes him still hindered in some way - this is because he is from another world, and if he is from this world, it is still a question whether he can touch the Great Enchantment.

So although he was extremely determined to repair the Great Enchantment, the progress was extremely slow, and at this rate, he would probably have to work for most of the day to reconnect this broken line, and if he got it quickly, he might be able to catch lunch.

If you slow down...... It's just a matter of waiting for dinner.

For a while, Tang Yuan and Yakumo Zi were quiet, and Yakumo Lan stood next to the two of them, his ears standing high, his eyes rolling around, and he kept looking around.

In her mind's eye, a conversation was unfolding.

[Blue, there's nothing wrong around, right? 】

[No problem, everything is normal, Purple-sama.] 】

[That's good, that's good...... It seems that this little brother is also very cooperative. 】

[He...... Really repairing the Great Enchantment? 】

[That's right, although I don't know why he is so dedicated to this matter, he doesn't look like an otherworldly person at all...... But it seems to be just a simple little guy. 】

[Does Lady Purple want to trust him?] 】

[It doesn't matter if you trust it or not...... When it comes to the Great Enchantment, I can't guarantee that I can trust anyone other than a few of you...... This little guy doesn't seem to have any bad intentions, but I can't let go of his surveillance just because of that. 】

[Monitoring...... Lord Purple, is he really just repairing the Great Enchantment? Didn't do anything else? 】

[No, he's just working on the restoration.] 】

【……】

Yakumo Murasaki, who said "to focus on maintaining the realm", is consciously communicating with his Shikigami.

Sure enough, she didn't fully believe the stranger Tang Yuan - after all, for her, this stranger was too enthusiastic about the Great Enchantment, and it was easy for people to doubt his true purpose.

Therefore, Yayun Zi kept one hand, even if Tang Yuan really took the opportunity to make trouble, whether it was destroying the Great Enchantment or attacking her, she would have a way to kill Tang Yuan on the spot in the first place.

But...... While skeptical, Yakumo also expressed doubts about her intuition.

Because she had a hunch that if she really killed Tang Yuan, something terrible would happen, and at that time, it might not only be Gensokyo that would usher in a disaster, but even the entire world would be devastated......

So in the face of this terrible premonition, she also chose to compromise, try to believe in this stranger, and talk and laugh with him.

So far, at least, the self-proclaimed Tang Yuan from the other world has shown no problems...... Although this enthusiastic appearance was very suspicious in itself, Yakumo Zi could only remain vigilant.

The most important thing in her heart will always be Gensokyo.

As for why Tang Yuan is so enthusiastic...... The reason for this may never be understood by Yakumo Murasaki.

That's because of love!
