Chapter 18 · Hyakki Night Walking
The smell of materialism flows through the streets, pedestrians seem to be silhouettes, the hustle and bustle is like the background, and the invisible golden-pink fog fills the surroundings, making everyone feel a sense of dizziness.
And danger lurks in this bustling area, like a giant python walking against the grass.
"What's wrong? What's at stake? Shaogong asked puzzled.
Bai Meng, who was lying on Shaogong's shoulder, hiccuped drunkenly and said, "Come on! What danger are you afraid of, as we all know, whenever we encounter danger at the next moment, Guangjun will arrive on a motorcycle-hiccup~"
"I seem to have a picture of that......" Xingcai said.
"Psychological suggestion, very bad premonition." Shizuru Engami helped her glasses.
"I'm just now realizing that there are a lot of ..... around There are a lot of people with strange breaths, exactly the same as the one I noticed on Ikumi Furutani that day. Xing Yao looked around warily.
Crowds of people walked up and down the streets, and among them there were a group of people, waiting in front of the traffic lights, or looking out at the night sky, like statues in the crowd.
The only action they have in common is breathing.
With every breath, the pupils of his eyes dilated, as if he was sucking in the air and bringing himself to life little by little.
Relying on such breaths again and again, their pupils focused one by one, revealing a surprise like seeing the light of day.
"Oooh! It worked! ”
"I finally have the consciousness to move!"
"Shhhhh
"No, the person next to us is already looking at us with strange eyes."
"Hey, I've found the target, it's a big group of people, and they're all women."
"I've heard that female chess players in this era are generally very strong, so it's time for us to learn about it."
......
......
Hearing the word danger, Ke Zhiguang's nerves picked.
Excited anticipation......
After brushing so many power points, it finally has a place to use!
Without saying a word, pick up the baseball bat and go out!
"There's no use, that strength value is to help you move things, and by the way, help girls twist the bottle cap." Zero crooked his waist and smiled, not only piercing through the thoughts, but even the words used by Ke Zhiguang were captured.
"Cut." Kojimitsu put down the baseball bat in a boring manner.
I thought I could get into the hand-to-hand combat line.
The boy's passionate dreams were tragically shattered.
"What is the danger?" Ke Zhiguang asked.
He looked out the window at the night sky, it was still peaceful and harmonious, and there was nothing unusual at all.
The only anomaly is that in recent times, the temperature has dropped too quickly, it is only the beginning of September, but the autumn mood is too strong.
Snow is expected to fall exceptionally early this year.
Not...... This is becoming more and more weather-like.
"Nidhogg has it, the World Tree is here, Ragnarok is already on the way, and you have seen the souls of the ancients, so when will you remember the stubble of the land of the dead?"
This is really, it makes people realize.
"Nidhogg didn't nibble up the World Tree on his own, he also carried a swarm of snakes."
That's why Jiang Yongqing's symbolic spirit will appear in the form of a black snake.....
Summoning the spirits of the past back into the present day is really the way of the Holy Grail War.
Strange animated elements have been added again!
"But it's a battle between the Heroic Spirits and the Heroic Spirits, as for us, it's up to the masters to copy the guys themselves." Zero elegantly made a "please" gesture.
"Actually, it's not that difficult, I didn't spend much effort to deal with an opponent of Jiang Yongqing's level, even if there are a few more, it shouldn't be a problem." Ke Zhiguang said.
Zero sighed: "You, don't you have a concept of the number and scale of the enemy?" ”
Ke Zhiguang had the feeling that he had been asked about the point.
"That'...... What is the number of enemies? ”
"All.
"All?"
"That's right, it's all, all the players who have a certain level of strength since the birth of the art of Go...... How much do you think this number can be? Zero's eyes moved playfully.
Ke Zhiguang gasped.
War......
It's a war.
It's not a feast-like group war like the Dragon Throne War, but a larger-scale chaotic war.
This scale can only be described as an army, right?
A ...... that belongs exclusively to the field of Go Immortal Legion!
"Night God Kunikyo has this ability? Pry open all the coffin boards of all the ancient chess players? ”
"After all, he is a man whose goal is eternal life, if he can't control life and death, how can he achieve this ultimate goal?"
The oppressive force suddenly became larger.
The oppressive force from the night god Kunijing.
The cool autumn evening breeze slapped against the window, as if a black dragon was vibrating its wings in the distance.
"Tonight is the night when the two title battles of Nova and Dream Heaven end, and the fortune has reached the ideal state of the greenhouse effect, and the ancients who are the vanguard will end the incubation period and usher in the first wave of awakening...... To put it bluntly, it's a seizure, and you shouldn't be unfamiliar with this, right? Zero grinned playfully, revealing a shiny tiger tooth.
Or..... Should it be a canine?
"Meaning, I'm going to meet a lot of peers."
"Colleagues from the ancients, but they are only temporarily gone, and by January 1st of next year, they will disappear completely, and their purpose is only one, and that is to follow in the footsteps of Nidhogg, eat all the Wood of Fortune, and the specific operation is to constantly play against others and win...... You can imagine that they are hunting, eating all the symbolic spirits that inhabit the Wood of Fortune, and the players who are eaten will be replaced by new black snakes. ”
No...... This is not called hunting, this is called zombie films.....
Strange elements are increasing again.
"In that case, then our response is also very simple, if we don't fight them, won't it be over?"
"There's one thing...... It's called a match ticket. Zero said as he looked into Kojiko's eyes.
Ke Zhiguang pursed his lips in thought.
The meaning of this sentence is to imply that if the ancients applied for a game, there was a high probability that they would not be able to refuse.
Each person comes with their own game ticket skills.
"And every champion of the competition, in fact, corresponds to a fruit, when they swallow all the fruits, in fact, it means that they win the final victory, even if you defeat the Night God Kingdom, it is useless."
Ke Zhiguang waved his hand: "Forget it, let's just say it, then what should I do now?" Tonight's words? ”
"Let's pick up the deer of Haruma Island first, they are an important living force, and they can't be wiped out like funny characters."
This......
I don't know who they are......
But it feels like it's all funny characters.
can even imagine the comedy picture of them being caught in a daze.
"By the way, you just said that Jiang Yongqing is not a powerful character, which is indeed true, even if he is allowed to study until December, it may not pose much of a threat to you, but ...... But don't forget, there are still six dragons in this world. ”
Ke Zhiguang was stunned.
I almost forgot that in the field of ancient Chinese and Japanese Go, the six strongest people who supported this art like a divine pillar.
Three in China: Huang Longshi, Shi Xiangxia, Fan Xiping.
Japan's three: Daoce, Zhanghe, Xiuce.
A chess master in the true sense of the word.
Six dragons from antiquity!
"The six of them will directly receive the teaching of the Night God Guojing, it will only take a month, with their talents, each of them will be able to master the most modern Go techniques, and when the time comes, the dream of you and Banye Xuan Guan Gong fighting Qin Qiong will finally come true, congratulations."
Zero is so good at reading this "even a lot", and I don't know who I learned it from.
"These six chess masters have all awakened now?"
"Only one has awakened, and at this moment, this ancient chess saint is approaching the Qingdao deer."
......
......
"Huh? Match? It's all here, and it's all about you horses, yes, yes, yes, let me go to Siberia to dig potatoes! ”
"That's it, this point, you should play mahjong!" Harushima Deer also shook off the support of the star marry, and shouted angrily.
"Miscellaneous cultivation."
Looking at this formation, the ancients were dumbfounded.
Their task is to constantly find people to play with, even if they fail, it doesn't matter, but they will sleep for a while, and if they win, their opponents will be immediately taken away, and it won't be long before a new ancient person will take over their bodies.
They can sense who the chess player is, and they also have a certain ability to force the game, and the person they apply for the game to play is very likely to be on the board table.
The radar antenna tells them that the girls are not at a low level and are very strong opponents, but after walking up and asking about the game......
As a result, this group of people was wearing a drunken buff, and they seemed to have the physique to forcibly reject the application, and directly scolded their group.
"This Tokyo city is too simple and simple!"
"Are these girls really of legal drinking age? This is not reported to the official, drag them in to educate them? ”
"This ...... I think if the arrest is coming soon, we will probably be arrested for the crime of letter harassment. ”
The few people who were still awake watched in a daze as the group of strangers who suddenly appeared performed bewildering behavior in front of their eyes.
"Sister, the situation ...... now"
"Well, it seems that ancient chess players have attached themselves to them......" Xing Marry nodded, she found this from the conversation between the other party.
The appearance of the people in front of him is ordinary youth, and looking at their outfits and temperament, they seem to be professional or amateur chess players.
This group of people is probably the people who played chess at night and were tragically beaten recently.
"So what should we do now?" Astrogram asked.
Under the influence of the forced game, she is now a little stiff in her brain, but she has a strong urge to play, in short, she wants to touch the chess pieces.
To put it in layman's terms, it is called a chess addict.
"That...... Guys with superpowers, do we Muggles need to call a taxi to leave first? Shaogong asked, carrying Bai Meng, who was already asleep.
"This is not necessary, in fact, I think that ordinary people are safer, and we are the ones who should escape the scene by taxi." Shizuryu Fuchigami was very calm.
"I'm joking and calling myself a Muggle, you're really talking!" Shaogong's little face darkened.
Xing Marrying cautiously asked, "Miss Shaogong, you call yourself a Muggle, do you know anything inside?" ”
Shaogong was in a trance, holding his chin and pondering: "I don't know very well, in short, it's like I suddenly understood something, Go seems to be linked to strange abilities...... Hey? When did I get this idea? ”
Xing Marriage's expression froze slightly.
These are the most basic secrets of fortune, and if ordinary people know this, the wood of chess luck will be affected.
But from another point of view, when the Wood of Fortune has been greatly affected, maybe some ordinary people will automatically know about its existence.
It's messed up, maybe it's all messed up.....
In the metaphysical world, winter has fallen on the decaying soil, snow and darkness have flapped against the giant trees, and black snakes have invaded the lush branches from the bottom up, preying on all living things.
Tonight is a massive awakening, the vanguard is roaming the streets as hunters, constantly looking for chess players, asking them to play games, and the Black Snakes can even use wolf pack tactics to hunt a powerful chess player.
On this wonderful night, it may seem that Japan's prosperity has reached its peak, but in reality the crisis is pouring like a tide to every corner, and the immortal army of the undead is breaking every dike.
The three members of the Qingdao group still maintained the momentum of not being afraid of heaven and earth, and scolded a group of ancients who stopped in front of them, and finally scolded this group of people to the point that they were a little dizzy.
"Only villains and women can't be raised, and ......"
"Why don't you forget it tonight, these women are too strong in combat, shrews?"
"It's okay, judging from my feelings, we may not be able to get along with these people, especially this little girl with two ponytails."
Just as the young men were about to leave, a proud female voice came from behind them: "Everyone, don't come unharmed, I didn't expect to see you again one day." ”
The young people turned their heads in a trance, looking at the young women who walked not far away, as if they had seen the brilliance and showed a shocked look.
"You! Are you?! The young people spoke in unison.
Harushima deer also sobered up a little.
That familiar feeling is back......
Some time ago, she had felt this way, but it was only for a moment and did not attract her too much attention.
But at the moment, the feeling is a little too clear.
Like the sound of cicadas in early summer, with the fragrance of grass in the courtyard, someone was holding a newspaper and lying on the pillar of the wooden platform in the courtyard, and the sliding door behind him was pushed open by a pair of shy little hands, and he also turned his head and smiled.
"Daddy...... Daddy......" Harushima deer muttered.
"Oh? You still remember me. ”
Although this voice has never been heard before, it has a different kind of familiarity.
Harushima Deer's heart trembled, and with tears in his eyes, he looked up at the other party-
A strange woman in a long dress with a refreshing smile is looking at her with fatherly eyes.
"Come on, let's father and daughter ......." The woman opened her arms and walked towards Harushima Deer.
"Pervert, get out!" Harushima deer flew up with a kick.
Tears of emotion? It doesn't exist, that thing.
