1. Advent

What does a boy's holiday mean? Playing games all night long, hiking and camping, exercising and fitness...... Or wilting and standing in various positions and waiting for someone?

"Why do I have to suffer this sooner rather than I have a girlfriend?" said Ivan, who was carrying a pile of bags, changed his weight-bearing legs and began to complain.

"Because you're in trouble," said Harden dismissively, "and to be reasonable, is there any one of us who isn't single?"

"Don't make a sound, I didn't want to talk about you!" Cedar couldn't help it, "Harden, you're the first to agree, okay? I don't know what bribes you took to drag us into the water!"

"Blame me?" Harden snorted disdainfully, "It's not because you don't have good taste that you have to let me provide guidance, guys like you who only say that they are good-looking and good-looking no matter what, if you don't have me, you won't be killed, do you still want to wait for a big meal?"

"Let's see who will be beaten first, and there has to be a degree of poisonous tongue, I bet Harden will be beaten in less than thirty minutes!" Cedar was inexplicably angry at this time.

"No, it won't. Abel said calmly.

"Abel, you traitor!" Cedar's eyes widened in disbelief and she looked hurt, "I see, you betrayed this time because you asked Marina out, right?"

"What...... "Abel laughed, "I'm nothing to Marina, I mean, they probably haven't come out in thirty minutes, within an hour." ”

"Hahaha makes sense!" Ivan laughed heartily before being hit in the face by the paper bag, "Hey Harden, what do you mean by just hitting me!"

"It's so slow......," Cedar looked into the store again, "Why do we have so many people coming, others will think it strange when they see it, what kind of girl will have a group of male girlfriends with her." ”

Harden sneered: "It's too naïve, who would have thought that it was a male girlfriend, obviously a group of bodyguards and coolies." ”

"Don't complain, let's play games together," Wan Qiyi, who was standing on the side, invited, "Have you ever played the new mobile game launched by the organization?"

"Carlos and Rebecca planned a game, right? As soon as you hear it, you know it's not good, they just want to drive people crazy. Harden said and went to join in the fun.

"I think our organization is also very good, and we also put out the game to promote it," Ivan also leaned over, "Oh, I know this! Draw cards to cultivate Heavenly Punishers, and choose a group of veteran Heavenly Punishers as characters, and let players be the head of the headquarters, right? Look at which ones you drawn...... Wowha, you're cultivating Carlos, hahaha......"

"I can't draw a god card like the head of the headquarters......" Wan Qi said disgustedly and continued to play, "Oh my god, it's the crusade mission of the Red Name Heavenly Punisher again, how can I take the task of the auxiliary Heavenly Punisher in this area?"

"Then you can't play it, Carlos is lazy and slippery, and the setting is completely consistent with the real person. Harden kindly took his phone to help him check the strategy, "No, Carlos came out and said that he was just adding to the blockage, and this is basically a waste card, unless you can draw Miss Madeleine or the Big Three of the White World." ”

"What's the use of him if I can draw it!He's the only one who focuses on the game planning of the whole player!" Wan Qian complained, "Hey again, look at this anti-addiction system!"

"Hahahaha Forced to see the wanted warrant of the Red Name Heavenly Punisher, this is okay!" Harden appreciated the design of not forgetting his identity and mission, "This is as meaningful as the question and answer questions about major historical events, the only pity is that few people will actually be addicted to these rotten games." ”

At this time, Marina and Ellie finally came out, and Ivan was the first to react: "Oh, it's out! It's a great match!

Ellie paused for a moment, then said flatly, "Tired, I'll wear this today." ”

Several boys snickered, and Harden also sneered: "Negative textbook." ”

"I've actually reacted!" Ivan said indignantly, "but his mouth is one step faster than his brain!"

In other words, stupidity. Harden scoffed again, then empathetically patted Cedar and Abel, "Get the water." ”

"Oh. Cedar took the prepared water from her backpack and handed it to Ellie, then another bottle to Abel, who handed it to Marina, who was leaning against the wall and screaming tired.

"Thank you......" Marina took the water, looked up and drank the whole bottle in one gulp, then exhaled, "Ahhhh......h

"I thought girls love to go shopping," Harden gave her a disappointed look, "Marina, are you okay?"

"I've never walked this long way...... "Marina said sincerely, "Actually, it's my first time visiting the mall, and I'm quite happy except that my feet hurt!"

"I don't visit the mall very much," Ellie said, "and I used to just say anything." ”

"You're a princess after all. Cedar answered.

"And you look like a simple man, and your maid is very worry-free. Harden also added, and was immediately picked up by Ellie to take the bag and call it out.

"What nonsense," Ivan looked at Harden, who was still defiant after blocking the bag, and reassured him fairly, "Ellie is clearly a very heroic girl, where does she look like a man." “

"How long do you have to buy it?" Han Feng changed his posture and stood, "You haven't bought a single piece of clothing yet?"

"Bought a few hairpins," Marina happily showed off her new ocean-style ornaments, "is this going to be used on a regular basis, does it look good?"

"It's ok. But you don't need to buy that much," Harden suggested, "Aren't you going to the magic shop later, and buy a few enchanted ones?" ”

"Hey, hey, it's too much!" Han Feng complained repeatedly, "Why do you still have to persuade them to continue buying!"

"I'm just telling you the truth, can't you care about the actual needs of your fellow men?" Harden replied disdainfully, "Besides, I haven't heard of a wizard who would find it tiring to visit a magic shop, and this is obviously an offer for the benefit of fellow men." ”

"Don't make any noise, we can use the magician's method to solve the problem!" Cedar is becoming more and more proficient, "I'll give you all a 'resurrection', and you can't go shopping with girls without realizing it." ”

"Oh, it's been getting more and more like that lately, General?" said Harden jokingly patting him on the shoulder, and at this time, the mother and daughter of Zhiyao Shadow and Zhiyunyu were also walking out-

As soon as the museum incident came out, the mother and daughter of the plant shadow came here to escort the next morning, and it is said that after returning to Miami, the temple will send their trusted old future to strengthen the guard.

"I'm going to swell if you blow it to me again. Cedar replied with a smile, and asked Zhi Yunfei again, "Do you see any clothes you like?"

“...... I'm here to be a guard," the little girl replied, not yet accustomed to the feeling of being under Cedar's command, and replied a little uncomfortably, "You can leave us alone." ”

"You're welcome, I'm casual, let's be honest, you guys should relax a little," Cedar smiled honestly, "I'm scared of you guys who keep a straight face like this......"

"I'm so sorry," Phytoshaki smiled slightly, but replied solemnly, "We just want to make sure you're safe, and the situation isn't going well. ”

"It's alright," Ellie said rarely, "and we'll try on clothes again." And you, too far away, come and be a staff officer. ”

"It's time to test the vision of a straight man, and we'll know who is dead or alive," Harden moved his muscles, "Come on." ”

"I've got a good eye!" said Ivan, disdainfully, and immediately boasted when he saw Ataya come out first, "Look at my sister!

"If you don't speak, you will praise me, there is no reference value. Ataya ruthlessly interrupted her brother's emotional beginning, like the beginning of a poem, which made Harden laugh out loud.

"I think he's also quite objective," Sun Rin, who found a place to sit down first, supported Ivan and stretched out his thumb, "I also think it's really good-looking, it fits well, and it's all good-looking." ”

"You're a little perfunctory, aren't you? Can you be targeted, kelp?" Atay laughed.

"I'm very objective and scientific," Sun Rin glanced at them seriously, "but you have to understand, I think everything Selie wears looks the best." ”

"Is there any difference between you and me?" said Ivan with disdain, snorting again.

"Be objective," Ataya grumbled and asked Cedar, "Cedar, how is my dress?"

"Uh...... It's pretty, it's short," Cedar replied cautiously, "and ...... Wouldn't it be better to have a brighter color?"

"Like what?"

"Uh......" Cedar looked around, tentatively gesturing at the model in the floor-length dress, "like this?"

"I think that's how Zhou Zhou's aesthetic is," Harden scoffed, "and you'd better dress like a spring flower bed." ”

"Isn't it pretty?" Cedar disagreed, looking at Ellie for help.

“...... Not bad. Ellie cautiously agreed.

"The problem is the temperament of Ata's eldest sister. Harden said authoritatively.

"How do you know if you can't wear it?" To be honest, Cedar couldn't think of Ataya not wearing a leather skirt or short, but he still firmly believed in his own judgment.

"Alright," Ataya laughed, picking up an elegant dress that was completely different from her everyday style, "Since it's Zhou Zhou's sincere recommendation, then I'll try it." ”

Watching Ataya enter the locker room, Wan Qiyi took out his mobile phone again: "Then I'll continue first." ”

"Who will save this Internet addicted teenager!" Although he didn't talk much, his younger brother Wan Qier was not shy, and he grabbed his mobile phone directly-

Cedar heard that the Wan Qi brothers were specially sent by the Dan imperial court, that is, financial supporters, and the funds were limited, so the two brothers shared a mobile phone.

"It's rude in front of the lady, okay, pay attention to your image!" Ivan stopped them in a serious manner, "stop playing yet, let's talk." Tell me which clothes look better here."

"Sister!" Ivan stood up, and Ellie and Sally immediately rushed to the door of the locker room—

"Téa!" Ellie shouted, making eye contact with Sally and kicking the door open, and Sally then ripped a piece of clothing and broke in.

"Sister, what's wrong?" Ivan followed in, and Ata, who was clothed, blushed and breathed hard.

"How-" Harden looked at it, his gaze falling on the long bloodstain that had disappeared into the gap in the ceiling.

"There was a ...... There's a white cloth wrapped around my neck......" Ataya gasped and pointed to the blood, "I used the Ice Arrow, and it was bleeding...... And ...... from here"

"いったんもめん......" Zhiyun blurted out, then frowned and looked at Zhiyuying.

"Xiao Er!" At this time, Wan Qian shouted decisively and held his younger brother, and his brother, who was able to get out of his body, immediately closed his eyes and weakened, and it seemed that he had chased him upstairs with a spirit body.

"Cloudy?" asked Cedar inquiringly, "what did you just say?"

"Maybe it's the other thing you do...... I've seen Japanese yokai," said Ueun hesitantly, "It sounds like a yokai like a long white cloth that can wrap around a person's neck." (Note)

"That's a youkai from the Kagoshima area, and this is Lan Shi," Uekashi couldn't be sure, "unless there is a special mission or a specific person like us to lead and guide, as far as I know, an acquaintance who can do this kind of thing and is related to the Heavenly Punisher......"

She glanced at Yun Fei's pale face, and hesitated: "Maybe we are too careful? It doesn't have to be an anti-cotton, even if it is, it doesn't have to be ......."

"You have clues?" asked Harden, frowning.

"I'm afraid I'm misleading, so let's continue to observe first," Phytogyage observed the locker room coldly, "General, can you sense the breath?"

"We've been probing since just now, and there doesn't seem to be a strong anomaly. Cedar shook her head, and her men carefully examined Atayal.

"I'd suggest going back to Cursed Island, it's too unsafe here. Phytosage looked around grimly, looking uneasy.

"That's true, but we're the Heavenly Punishers, and it's not something to avoid," Harden looked around inquiringly, "Tell us, we've come across a ruin—aha, retreat immediately." ”

"The phone can't be called, and the message can't be used!" Wan Qier, who was fast-handed, became alert, "And you can't express the meaning again, it's a harmony monster!"

"Then I'll be happy," Harden also frowned and looked at his phone, and then tried to use the messenger, but this time it was connected, "Hey, Clio, has the report been handed in? ”

"Clio can do it, then it's up to us," Sun Rin stood up, "This time the scope may be wider than the museum." ”

"It's time to feel that the duo is going to come up, and we need to keep an eye on it," Harden said, looking at the shopping guide who heard the sound, "and follow the rules to make sure the damage is minimized." ”

"Yes. Ivan patted Ataya on the shoulder, stood up and went to communicate with the shopping guide.

"Are you alright, Ata?" asked Harden as he looked back, gently rubbing his neck, and Ataya nodded at him.

"Now go find that white cloth. Bobo, did you catch it?" Harden then asked Abel, who was twisting the tactile silk.

"I have a general direction, I'm chasing Xiao Er with me," Abel probed carefully with a calm face, "The blood stains and smell suddenly broke off, and they were in the bathroom...... The moisture is too heavy to be found...... It's kind of weird, isn't it? It's ...... damp."

"It's hard to find if you escape from the bathroom to the window, right?" Sun Rin twisted his curls with his fingers in annoyance, "It's better to go up and have a look first...... Don't get separated this time, let's act together. ”

"I agree!" Wan Qi, who was holding his younger brother, nodded again and again, "Come, let's go!"

"Are we going to close the show?" asked Ivan, who was communicating with the shopping guide.

"Seal," Hardenley decided, "we're going to work in groups and evacuate the crowd from the south exit, and all the people who leave the venue will be checked." Zhou Xuesong, you take Sister Ying's mother and daughter to take care of this with Ellie, and everyone cleans it up once, Han Feng, do the rock wall to block all the places except the south exit, Ivan, you go to the radio with the freshman, Sally, and Marina, and Ah Dai, except for Tya and me to stay here and wait, the rest of the people will go to the second floor with you. ”

"Good. Cedar they immediately took action, and the shopping guide also took Ivan and them away.

"Isn't Harden okay with Atayal?" Cedar looked back, a little worried.

"It's okay, we're not far apart, Atayal is a wide range of group control, and Harden is also an absolute control player, you know," Ellie dispelled his concerns, "Let's start investigating." ”

"Hmm......" Cedar nodded, and just then the announcement had already begun, and he accidentally bumped into a man who came to a sudden stop, "Ahhh

"Kill ......" was definitely not the expected response, the man of Mu Ran said in a low voice.

"Sir?" Cedar didn't hear clearly, and spoke again.

The man turned his head suddenly, and Cedar heard a click on his cervical spine, his dull face like a dead corpse, and his mouth was still muttering vaguely, "Kill the Heavenly Punisher!"

"Cedar!" and "General!" they all realized the danger and immediately gathered together.

"Kill ......" echoed in the crowd.

"Hum hahahaha......"

"Hehe......"

The screams were as turbulent as the tide of laughter, and the mechanically rotating gaze was dim and wooden, and the only thing that was clear was the same killing intent—

"Kill ......"

"Kill the Heavenly Punisher!"

Preview: "This is a necromancy that can be possessed and transferred!"

"Purify! We need a pure spirit!"

"It's an illusion!"

"Don't look with your eyes!

"Sun Rinjun, first time we met," the gentle voice in the dim darkness implied a cold smile, and the touch that made the back tremble like a big snake cruising and rippling, "My surname is Yakushiji." ”

"Now is the time for you to respond to His Majesty the Star Monarch, you are ranked first, I want to think about it...... Why do you have to kill someone this time?"

I was afraid, the gentle voice of the serpent urging me, friends and the peaceful routine, the adversary and the ugly trap, the evil that I had to submit, the control that I could not escape......

In my ears are the frenzied voices of crying, laughing and shouting, "Blind those bright eyes, chop up the young shells full of life, and taste the delicious livers of the righteous"!

The sound of laughter floated above the gore, and the dancing ghosts in my dizzy vision invited me to fall into the magic path: "Let's have fun......"

Tonight, ghosts laugh, ghosts dance, ghosts kill, ghosts whimper—

In the next part, Devil Cry Reincarnation: Vertigo Saka.

— Note

The so-called "anti" in "Ichiban" is a unit of measurement of area in Japan, and the "Ichiban" is about 11 meters in length. "Cotton" means cotton, and here it refers to the cloth made from cotton flowers. The overall image of "one anti-cotton" is a long wooden white cloth with a spirit body. It is said that whenever a person walks alone on the road at night, a piece of cotton will appear and roll up the person's body and head. The earliest legends about the Ichiban Sponge originated in Kagoshima, and the Ichitan Cotton would quickly fly up in a state of rolling up the target, carrying people into the air.

Legend has it that a samurai was once attacked by a soldier who drew his sword in time and slashed at him, only to flee with a sprayer, leaving blood on the samurai's sword.
