Chapter 8: The Possibility of Summoning
How these strange spirits appeared, why they attacked the seemingly unrelated other side, these Yakumo Murasa didn't understand, and she had no interest in exploring the tricks involved.
How to solve the case is the detective's job, and all she has to do is a simple method of elimination.
Wraiths are made up of resentment, and they are only driven by hatred, they have no ability to think, and there is no possibility of using tactics, so the probability of individual resentful spirits acting alone is basically zero.
The appearance of this evil spirit must be man-made!
There is no reason for Shiji Yingji to do this, and Reimu will not use such a brain, and there is no possibility of betrayal by the god of death, so if she excludes herself, the remaining prisoner can only be him.
The demonic power converged at his fingertips, and Yakumo Zi abruptly aimed the spearhead at the most inconspicuous Yi Zhi, and a beam of light hit the other party's heart, but to everyone's surprise, Yi Zhi was actually on guard.
The mirror-like shield that stood in front of him was broken, and the body of the Yi person flew upside down, rolling on the ground a few times before stopping.
"Tsk......"
Purple smacked her tongue in frustration, she didn't expect that a mere human would actually expect her sudden attack in advance, killing chickens without a knife is her style of acting, so the attack just now is just a power that can kill a human.
Unexpectedly, this has become a part of being used by the other party.
The moves used by the Yi to defend are not some advanced abilities, just a simple yin-yang technique, after the defeat of the onmyoji a thousand years ago, the spells that have been handed down to this day are just some small skins.
It is the residues of those yin and yang techniques that Yi Zhi uses, and he is reluctant to protect himself, let alone use it to resist, but unfortunately, Zi only has such a chance.
"Purple, what are you doing?"
Purple's attack didn't work, but it caused the rest of the people to be uneasy, especially Shikihime, after all, Yakumo Purple has too many criminal records, and she is now almost the mastermind of this resentful spirit riot.
As for Reimu, although her instincts told her that Purple would not do such a thing, the other party's sudden attack on the Yi made her wary.
After all, at this stage, Yi and she seem to be teammates in the united front, and it is precisely because of the other party's suggestion that she was able to come to the other side by chance and find traces of Wu Ye's existence.
She wrote down this favor.
Needless to say, Reimu stood directly in front of Yi Zhe and protected him as he fell, which can be regarded as a sign of attitude.
And the smile on Yakumo's face was much deeper, she missed the best opportunity, she had no possibility of launching a second attack, after all, in the unknown situation now, if she rashly made a move, Shiki Yingji would definitely not sit idly by.
But through the blow just now, she was sure that Yi Zhi must be inextricably linked to this resentful spirit incident.
The resentful spirits in the distance are constantly pressing, and on this side, the atmosphere in front of the Hall of Right and Wrong has fallen into an eerie silence again, and the Grim Reaper beside Shikieihime has subconsciously transferred the encirclement from Reimu to Purple and Blue.
Hades himself was watching the pair of master and servant with scrutinizing eyes.
After everyone's attention was diverted, Yi Zhi, who was clutching his chest, finally got up from the ground, and although Yakumo Zi's attack was barely blocked by him, with this human body, it was still too reluctant.
"Sure enough, this level of body is not enough ...... at all"
Swallowing the unnoticed self-talk, Yi got up and whispered to Reimu, "Miss Shrine Maiden, it seems to be confirmed." ”
"What?" Reimu didn't understand what the change was referring to for a while.
"My divination shows that what you're looking for is close at hand." Yi lowered his head and hid his expression, he couldn't let Reimu see the smile that had become distorted by excitement. Love 999
Everything had to be built on the trust of the shrine maiden, and that's all he could rely on.
"Really?" After the incident of the resentful spirit, Reimu has already recognized the ability of the Yi to a certain extent, although she instinctively can't have any good feelings for this man, but this does not prevent her from trusting the other party.
"As you can see, that ...... No, aren't those resentful spirits proof of the existence of Lord Takasaka Takeya? Yi Zhe's hoarse voice seemed to have a kind of magical power, like the midnight bell, as if it was cut off from the hustle and bustle.
"You ......" Ling Meng looked back at Yi in surprise: "Is it difficult to know Wu Ye?" ”
"No, there's no such honor."
Although Reimu's answer disappointed, his next words surprised the shrine maiden: "I just believe it, I believe what you said, Miss Shrine Maiden, and I believe that there was once such a great person who existed in the history of Gensokyo. ”
"Great?" Although Yi Zhe's evaluation of Wu Ye made her a little ridiculous, she did face up to the inconspicuous man in front of her.
"It's a bit presumptuous, but, Miss Miko, I have a proposal."
Noticing the change in Reimu's expression, Yi Zhe lowered his head deeply, and after hiding all his expressions, he said in a flat tone, "Perhaps, it can make your wish come true faster." ”
"Tell me about it." Reimu naturally asked the changer.
"Summon."
In reply with two words of concise and forceful force, Yi Zhi said to the thoughtful Reimu: "With all due respect, although we have proved the existence of that adult, judging by the current situation, I am afraid that the adult has already ...... from this world."
"Hmph......" Reimu snorted heavily, expressing his dissatisfaction, but he didn't interrupt Yi's words, although it was a little ugly, but maybe that was the truth.
"It's rude," Yi Zhi first apologized in a humble manner, and then said, "If that's the case, our attempt to find him is in vain, but we can do it in other ways." ”
"Do you use summoning or something?" Even if he was unwilling to admit from the bottom of his heart that Wu Ye had disappeared from the world of the living as a premise, Reimu had to admit that the proposal of the Yi was feasible.
Or rather, it should be the only one that works now.
After all, that group of resentful spirits alone can't solve any practical problems.
Most of the techniques of the Hirori witch are biased towards attacks and enchantments, and for the summoning technique, Reimu really didn't dabble in it, so this time she also turned her attention to the change of sights, and unexpectedly, the other party responded to her expectations again.
"I also know a thing or two about summoning, all I need is the right venue and medium."
Yi's tone finally couldn't help but bring a little excitement, but Reimu didn't care anymore: "As the realm of the dead, the other side and the underworld are naturally the first choice, and then there is the medium needed to summon that adult——"
As he spoke, Yi turned his gaze to the group of resentful spirits in the distance: "Those resentful spirits that can prove the existence of that adult are the most suitable medium, aren't they?" ”
"Wraiths?" Reimu frowned and questioned, "They don't have a direct connection with Wu Ye, at best, they are just a little intersecting, is that okay?" ”
"No problem, the Wraith is enough," Yi assured, pointing to the area covered by the Wraith: "Just let me reach the border of the Santu River, and in that position, I can perform the summoning technique." ”
The question was handed back to Reimu, and she couldn't help but struggle.
Are there any other people in Gensokkyo who are good at summoning? There is no doubt that the answer is, but none of them want to believe that Takeya exists, or rather, they have forgotten.
The medium, the location, and the caster were all ready, and all she needed was a thought.
After a moment, Reimu gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, just do it!" ”
