Chapter 17: Water
It was as if the tires were shaken by the protruding stones, and the dark space in which they were located was shaken.
No one spoke, the passengers were blindfolded with black cloths, and the windows were covered with seals inside and outside the insulation.
There was an aggressive silence, as if the people in the car were all condemned prisoners, on the way to the execution ground.
But the eight people in the car, including the driver, were all wearing black suits, which was far from the image of a death row prisoner;
There are men holding baseball bats and bowing their heads;
There are also men with bows and arrows on their backs, and their backs are straight;
There is also a teenager wearing headphones and playing blind games on his hands, if someone looks at the mobile phone screen on which his fingers jump, they will see a big red 17 kills.
I really didn't expect to go to sign a contract with the demon and be blindfolded.
I came to a shabby building in uniform this morning - the office building of the Ministry of Public Security's Magic Strange Class, and I thought it was just to go through the entry procedures, sign and go to the street to fight monsters, but I didn't expect to be asked to put on a black cloth, get in the car, take a free tour of Tokyo Bay, and sign a contract with the devil in a place that seems to be far away.
Why doesn't Akira Hayakawa have to be blindfolded when he reads manga, is it because Akira Hayakawa is a veteran demon hunter?
Now this style always feels a little sneaky, as if it is hiding something.
It doesn't matter if he descends to zero, he won't die anyway.
The slightly curly red-haired woman driving the car, from the rearview mirror of the car, saw a white-haired waist-length young man, wearing a black cloth face, holding her arms as if the black boss was sitting steadily, she let out a silent snort, blaming herself for being too guilty, and actually brought people in as demon hunters, in the end, it was too impulsive at the time......
When the teenager's mobile phone screen showed 158 kills, the vehicle suddenly stopped. Without advance notice, the passengers' bodies all tilted.
"You can take off the cloth and get out of the car."
Under the reminder of a female voice, that is, a red-haired woman, everyone first took off the black cloth, then opened the car door, and was stunned when they saw the scene outside the car.
The boundless tombstones of the cross fill the green savannah, as if there is only this one place left on the planet inhabited by humans, and the ubiquitous white crosses continue to the sky.
The blue cloudless sky resounded with the laughter of the crows, and the black crows seemed to stop at the tombstone closest to the newcomer to the demon hunter.
They look at humans with wide eyes and a very human look, as if there is a person behind them.
"Here is ......" The first question to be asked was a young man with glasses and short hair.
Everyone introduced themselves when they met in the office building before, his name is [Yuan], and he is wearing round glasses frames, at first glance, he is the kind of person who will make people feel that this guy is a rational character who thinks with his brain.
Everyone's eyes were focused on their leader, the Demon Hunter [Red Hot Chili Pepper], a delicate baby face wrapped in slightly curly red hair.
"This is the graveyard of the demon hunters, and you will lie here in the future." She said ordinary words with an ordinary expression, but the content was ...... Fortunately, the audience did not react, or they were used to seeing life and death, or they had already been mentally prepared.
"Are we here to hunt whacks?" The headphone boy finally looked away from the screen of his mobile phone and said with a blank expression on his face as he looked at the grave.
He introduced himself and said that his name is the thing he hates the most, and he likes to play games, so everyone calls him [Player].
Red Chili Pepper rolled her eyes directly, "I said before I came, we are here to sign a contract with the demon." Human beings are very ordinary creatures in nature, and they can't defeat demons with their muscles and brains alone, and they can only fight if they sign a contract with demons. ”
Everyone looked at the white flower of the cross tomb, and a question mark appeared on their heads, could it be that the demons were buried under the grave......
Immediately after that, Red Pepper took out a piece of paper with an unknown symbol from the folder, and saw her send the note to the corner of the crow's mouth, and a crow took the note and flew up, followed by a crow.
A bunch of crows hovered in the sky like a black spiral, attracting everyone's attention, and disappeared abruptly in a turn, and the vision was blurred, and suddenly a voice sounded: "Go in." ”
The red pepper stretched out his hand and put it forward, with a look of lack of interest.
Sure enough, everyone who came back to their senses showed surprise on their faces, and the earth, which had nothing but grass and white crosses, had completely changed.
The black corridors spread endlessly, as if there was no end, whether it was the ceiling or the floor, the left and right walls, were covered with notes of unknown symbols. The air was as dense as fireflies, emitting a dim glow, a little brighter here and a little brighter there.
Everyone subconsciously turned around, behind them was a note plastered all over the wall, reached out and touched it, hard, someone wanted to tear off a note to try, Red Pepper said faintly, "I don't recommend you to do this." ”
The player put down his hand stupidly, he was just curious.
A player who isn't curious is not a good player, and a player who doesn't die is not a good player.
"These notes are all part of the Seal Demon." Red Chili pepper motioned for everyone to follow her with her eyes, and introduced with a familiar look: "The five major countries of the world have divided up the sealing demons and used it to seal the captured demons. Otherwise, we don't have a demon contract to sign with, and we are already lucky as a demon hunter in an island country. If it's other countries......"
"How did a country that didn't seal the demon sign a contract with the demon?" The player asked curiously.
"By luck." Red Hot Chili Peppers didn't get angry at the player for interrupting him, but instead continued to talk about the topic, "People who are lucky meet demons who like them, sign a contract, and become demon hunters. However, their management is also informal, and the demon hunters are chaotic, their power is above ordinary people, and they even unite to establish their own country. So we are really lucky to be born in an island country. Only countries that are strong enough will pay attention to human rights, and we will protect ordinary people very well. ”
"Wow! own country. The player's eyes lit up, and you could tell what he was thinking by looking at his expression.
"Well," Red Pepper said softly, "a boy with fine skin and tender flesh like you doesn't have a chance to sign any demonic contract, and he must be lying in bed and enjoying it now." ”
The player's eyes lose their highlights.
Descending to the ancient zero, he also thought that this world was very peaceful except for the demons who came out from time to time to make trouble.
This world ...... It doesn't seem to be the same as the manga he reads, right?
But it doesn't matter, the savior is left to others to do.
Come on! Machima!
