(mIo Town Building!) ）

"Howl——! Howling ——! The wraith roared with a mixture of electric and cacophony from its mouth, a purple gas like flames, and its black eyes stared at Mio, who was holding the projection camera.

"This ????? What the hell is it? Looking at the resentful spirit in front of her, who looked like an evil ghost (Note 1), Mio already felt the fear of facing death.

Originally, she was surrounded by dozens of villager resentful spirits, but she didn't feel any pressure because of the spirit removal prop in her hand, the projection machine, which ran through the zero series, and it only took less than five minutes to kill (seal) those villager resentful spirits without injury, which is quite the level of those zero series high-level players in the real world.

And just as she was about to destroy (kill) the last few villager spirits, the villager spirits in front of her suddenly became like this, and then devoured all the other villagers' spirits!

But that's not all??????

And what makes Mio desperate the most is that the projection machine in her hand has very little effect on the guy in front of her!

This made her finally experience fear?????? The fear of dying at any moment??????

"Howling ——!!!" At this moment, the resentful spirit in front of him let out a terrifying howl again, and jumped up like a leopard, and the pitch-black weapon in his hand that could probably be called a scythe slashed towards Mio's head!

Mio wants to dodge, even if it's a roll?????? But her body was already filled with fear at this time, and she couldn't even make the most basic movement in the face of the man's resentful spirit in front of her.

Sister?????? I'm sorry??????

As if resigned to her fate, Mio closed her eyes, as if she had already decided that she was going to die.

Bang ——! Bang ——!

"Get out of Mio's way!"

At this moment, two muffled sounds came out, and the young man who suddenly rushed out directly kicked the lower abdomen of the resentful spirit, and punched it in the face.

"Howling ——!" In the face of the sudden attack, the wraith instinctively felt threatened, but instead of using the same skills as the brawler in a martial arts movie, he directly distanced himself from Mio with a painful wail.

"Mio! You okay? At this time, Ling Yan, who had just landed and gasped, immediately came to Mio's side, looking at her, she should not have been hurt by the resentful spirit just now.

When he opened his eyes and looked at the man who was looking at him with a worried expression, Mio couldn't help but say loudly, "Ling Yanjun??????? ”

"Ah, it's me, I'll be fine soon." Comforting the frightened Mio, Ling Yan looked at the resentful spirit holding a scythe in his hand and emitting a purple mist like flames, and said in a low voice, "Dark return? Please, if you don't give benefits to the easY difficulty, don't you want Nima to play me like this? ”

There is a setting in the Zero series, starting with "The Mask of the Eclipse", all the ghosts in it have a certain chance of entering a dark state when they die.

And the so-called dark return state actually does not have the effect of high-end atmosphere and grade as it sounds......

The effect is actually this: rampage.

When the health of the wraith is empty, there is a certain chance that a dark purple energy gas will suddenly appear on the body, and then the health that has been emptied will be restored to half instantly, and various abilities will be increased.

In "The Mask of the Eclipse", this state can be triggered either by randomly refreshed mobs or by the chapter boss of each piece (Note 1).

Although "Zero ~ Red Butterfly" in the Ps2 trilogy did not inherit this setting, in the wII version, "Zero ~ True Red Butterfly", which is a remake of "Zero ~ Red Butterfly", has been completely inherited.

And the probability is determined by the difficulty of the player's game and his own character. (For example, a certain author, in the true red butterfly of easY difficulty, almost beat a resentful spirit and directly secretly returned to one...... You tell this easY difficulty!? I don't even dare to revisit haRD!? (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻）

If it's in the game, all kinds of big touches and high games will definitely say: just push it with the camera!

Ling Yan said: Lao Tzu's live-action version of this pit father! How to push!

"Hand it over! Hand over the shrine maiden! The scythe villager who was emitting dark purple energy gas swung a torch that was also dyed purple and slashed at Ling Yan, as if it was no longer a cheap scythe of a tabula rasa, but a sharp purple artifact scythe.

"Hey, you're getting it wrong, aren't you?" Ling Yan complained, but his hands directly subconsciously made a move, and his right foot kicked hard towards the right hand of the resentful spirit, wanting to disarm the weapon of the resentful spirit in front of him, as if he was fighting with the thugs in the real world: he preemptively lost their weapons first.

Bang ——! A dull sound sounded, and the wraith's weapon did kick it away, but unfortunately......

This does not mean that he has lost the ability to fight!

Although the weapon in his hand is gone, he still has a pair of hands!

And these hands had already clenched into fists and bombarded Ling Yan's abdomen!

"Hmm!" Ling Yan felt a pain that made him want to vomit, as if the world had turned black and white in an instant, and a cold and piercing sensation extended from his abdomen to his whole body.

It's not physical/physical pain, it's pain from the soul.

Hehe...... Did you actually experience a soul attack yourself?

Ling Yan, who was oozing cold sweat from his forehead, thought so in his heart, and he had already taken a few steps back at this time, and then reflexively kicked the head of the resentful spirit again!

And the resentful spirit didn't know if it was because of instinct or because of the increase in IQ in the secret return state, as if he knew what Ling Yan wanted to do in advance, he clamped Ling Yan who wanted to jump back in advance, and then lowered his head......

Poof——! Ling Yan's shoulder made the sound of a hard object cutting into the flesh, and the reason was simple, the tooth of the resentful spirit cut into Ling Yan's shoulder.

Feeling the same pain as cutting through flesh with a knife, Ling Yan felt that there seemed to be some power in that resentful spirit's body that entered Ling Yan's body along his teeth and the wound on Ling Yan's shoulder!

And it was this strange thing that made Ling Yanhun feel paralyzed and unable to move.

Depend on! Paralyzing effect!? You think it's a pocket loli!?

And the strangest thing was that when this power spread to his right hand, it would disappear completely, allowing Ling Yan's right hand to partially regain consciousness and mobility.

I don't know why this is happening, but now is not the time to dwell on these things!

"You brought it on yourself!" Looking at the movements of this resentful spirit, Ling Yan directly swung his fist with his right hand and smashed it on the back of the resentful spirit, and then shouted at Mio, who was a little sluggish looking at this scene, "Don't be in a daze! I won't be able to last long! Shoot him now! ”

"Huh? Oh. Mio immediately picked up the projector and aimed it at the wraith, and immediately pressed the shutter!

Click——!

The light shot out of the projector again, shining on the wraith, but ...... He didn't completely disappear because of this moment, but only dissipated the lower half of his body.

"Whew——!" The pain-stricken spirit let out a penetrating wail, and then threw Ling Yan away and into the dilapidated house, and then ......

Rushed in the direction of Mio!

Hiss——! Under the effect of the huge force, Ling Yan's skin that was thrown away was directly torn apart by the sharp points in the house, and bright red blood flowed down his shoulders and dripped into the cold and gray ground.

"Shhhh

Seeing the fist of the resentful spirit, who was already not far from him, Mio, who was carrying the projector, had no time to dodge.

This was the second time that she was close to death, and Ling Yan could no longer help her, she was ...... now It can really be said that there is no salvation.

Poof——! It was like the sound of a blade entering the flesh......

Hearing this voice, Mio's eyes widened in disbelief, and she looked at the young man who hugged her tightly and blocked the attack that might kill her, and let out a somewhat trembling voice: "Ling Yan......?" ”

Pushing Mio out of the way immediately, Ling Yan immediately reflexively hugged the resentful spirit behind him, and shouted at Mio at the same time, "Take advantage of it!" Mio! Reimu, don't paddle either! Open the dream seal and him! ”

"Tsk, if I have the ability to deal with it before, where would I need such trouble?" Reimu muttered dissatisfaction with the status quo, and threw a light blue light directly with his right hand, hitting the resentful spirit who was being held by Ling Yan.

And those pale blue shards were—pale blue dim shards of spiritual power! (Note 2)

Knock ——! Knock ——!

A continuous sound rang out from the returning spirit, and then, as if burned by the flames, white smoke erupted from his body.

"Howl——! Howling ——! Feeling the indescribable pain, the resentful spirit instinctively let out a howl of pain, constantly scratching the white smoke wound, and at the same time trying to break free from Ling Yan's shackles.

"Pure fragments of unpolluted spiritual power, although it is nothing for ordinary people, but for a polluted soul like you, it is something more terrible than **~" Looking at the dark resentful spirit that had been seriously injured, Reimu let out a smile similar to blackening.

Buzz - Buzz -

At this moment, a mechanical hum came from behind the dark wraith, and Mio had already aimed the projection machine in his hand at him.

Mio, as one of the protagonists of "Mio ~ Red Butterfly" and "Mio ~ True Red Butterfly", although she does not have the spiritual power and inspiration that her sister Cocoon can become the final boss, but with her sunny and gentle personality, she has an ability to restrain the ghosts of this world: the camera is specialized in use, and she can be familiar with the operation of various cameras in a short time! And also has a certain spiritual power!

At this time, Mio's projector, which had been completely charged, was already aimed at the crux of the resentful spirit who had returned to her and looked back at her—the face that had been shattered by the fragments of spiritual power.

The moment he looked up, Mio pressed the shutter of the projector without hesitation!

Click——!

A light like sunlight emanated from the projector and shone on the face of the dark ghost.

Click——!

"Whew——!"

Then, Jin heard a shutter sound, and along with this sound, there was also the wailing of the dark resentful spirit.

"Ceremonial ...... Be sure to complete the ritual ......"

The wraith and the dark purple gas energy on him gradually vanished, but before he disappeared, he was still muttering about what he was holding onto......

———————————————————————————————————

Ps1: Prajna, it's a demon or something, the kind of mask that is very common on neon side.

Ps2: Secret Return······ Seriously, in addition to the 100% secret return of those bosses, the easY difficulty of ordinary monsters and random number spirits will not come too often, of course, if you use the camera directly······ It's still useless against the boss level, so although this shot looks important, but... Hardly anyone shrugged their shoulders

The setting of the spiritual power fragment is the point, which can enhance the function of the lens and camera, and the clothing and function of the night shop.
