Chapter 26: Anomalies in the Sewers
After talking, Haruhiko gets a piece of information that surprises him.
The murderer swam down the river to this place and dumped the body.
According to the goldfish's description, he was so fast that they only saw his back.
Is it a professional swimmer?
Haruhiko guessed, got up and said, "Rin, let's go." ”
"Where?"
Rin Hoshino was a little confused, "Do you have a clue?" ”
"Hmm."
Haruhiko walked up the river, and at each time he walked, he stuck his hands in the water and communicated with the fish.
Soon, the two of them left Koishikawa Korakuen.
Kanda Kamisui is actually an artificial waterway.
In the past, it was used to supply water to the former Edo Castle.
It is no longer in use, but the waterway remains.
Rin Hoshino followed behind Haruhiko and tried to speak several times.
But seeing his serious appearance, he didn't bother.
Until he stopped in front of a well.
Rin Hoshino was slightly stunned and asked, "The murderer is in the well?" ”
Haruhiko also hesitated when he heard this.
But he still chose to believe the fish in the river.
If you are deceived, you can take them out and steam them when you go back later.
"Hmm."
Haruhiko nodded, took out a charm, handed it to her, and said, "Let's go down and see." ”
The charm is a spirit armor talisman.
The main function is to generate a deck of armor, which has a defensive effect.
But it can also be waterproof and illuminated.
Rin Hoshino glanced at the deep well, hesitated for a moment, and chose to believe Haruhiko.
She reached out and pinched the lollipop in her mouth, her cheeks bulging and crushing it with a few bites.
Listening to the crisp voice, Haruhiko inexplicably felt a little cold.
Hoshino Rin's mouth seems to be very good.
After eating the lollipop, she gently opened her red lips and spat out the plastic stick in the nearby trash can, then threw out the charm.
Psionic energy turned into armor and covered her body.
It makes her look a little heroic.
After Haruhiko concocted the same method, he handed her a few more charms.
In fact, Rin Hoshino also has a lot of charms.
However, she did not refuse Haruhiko's kindness.
Buffers.
Haruhiko was the first to jump off the well.
When it is close to the water, the body develops a faint sense of lightness.
The speed slowed down suddenly.
He was able to jump into a nearby clearing.
Soon, Rin Hoshino also landed.
Her eyes froze, and with the faint glimmer of the spirit armor, she saw the passage on the wall of the well.
Wells under normal conditions should not have such a channel.
Rin Hoshino stepped forward to observe for a moment and said, "It's a fresh trace." ”
She turned her head to look at Haruhiko, her delicate little face showing a little surprise.
Maybe they really found the murderer.
She became more and more curious about Haruhiko.
As the eldest lady of Izumo Shrine, she has seen almost all spells.
But just now his actions were very inexplicable.
I don't know what means.
"That's probably right."
Haruhiko breathed a sigh of relief, pinched the charm of the Priest Star Shield, and walked forward.
At first, the passage feels relatively neat, but in the second half, it becomes sloppy.
"What kind of tool is this?"
Haruhiko reached out and wiped the mud off the surface, revealing deep scratches.
It's like a machine, it's like a claw.
"Alien."
Rin Hoshino looked at it and said firmly.
Qing Yanton thought it was incredible.
Will the demon make a hole?
It's quite disobedient.
"Be careful."
Haruhiko reminded, "I always feel that it is not normal. ”
"Hmm."
Rin Hoshino replied and said, "If you encounter danger, leave in time." ”
The two men walked for about five minutes before they reached the end.
What catches your eye is the intricate pipes.
It also exudes a strong stench.
"Tokyo's Sewers."
Haruhiko frowned, looked at the surrounding walls of unknown color, and said.
Rin Hoshino raised his hand, and the spiritual energy roared out, forming a dazzling ball of holy light in midair.
In an instant, the entire sewer was illuminated.
At the top, a humanoid piece of flesh sits on the ceiling like a gecko.
It's a demon.
Haruhiko didn't have time to think about why it was in the sewers.
And it was not discovered by the people of the Great Imperial Palace.
He threw out a spell.
It's an open flame charm.
The flame used to forge the spirit tool can be imagined how high its temperature is.
The spell turned to ashes in the wind.
The psionic energy sprinkled the demons with black ashes.
Flames appeared out of thin air, instantly illuminating the top.
In a few breaths, the demon lost its vital characteristics and fell to the ground with a dull thud.
"First-Order Alien Demons."
Haruhiko raised an eyebrow and said.
Although the open fire talisman is special, it can kill with one hit, indicating that the level of the alien demon is not high.
Rin Hoshino was about to speak, when her face suddenly changed.
I saw a rather obvious footstep sound.
At the mouth of the pipe not far away, more than a dozen alien demons poured out at once.
"What the hell is the Great Imperial Palace doing?"
Rin Hoshino's tone was solemn, his expression was puzzled, and he asked, "There are so many strange demons, and you don't even notice it?" ”
"Unless they're not coming demons."
Haruhiko thought that the murderer was also here, and said thoughtfully.
"It can't be!"
Rin Hoshino reacted and said subconsciously.
According to Haruhiko, someone is artificially creating a strange demon.
This is the greatest taboo for psionics.
Once discovered, they will be hunted down by all psykers.
But the forbidden art corpse splicing is indeed possible.
Sky Fox Thunder Curse!
Haruhiko didn't talk anymore, but began chanting the incantation.
Four seconds, enough for the demons to tear him apart.
But at this time, the importance of teammates is reflected.
Rin Hoshino took out the Kagura bell.
Psionic energy poured out, and in front of her, a rain of arrows formed.
The demons in the front row were instantly smashed into holes, fell to the ground amid screams, and collided with the demons behind them.
All of a sudden, people turned on their backs.
Haruhiko spat out the last syllable.
The spiritual energy in the body rushed straight to the outside world, quickly condensing into a purple air current, and shrouded the heads of the alien demon group.
The next moment, thunder descended.
The bright thunder light reflected the sewers in purple.
Rin Hoshino saw the Sky Fox Thunder Spell for the first time, and subconsciously showed surprise.
It is thirty percent more powerful than the normal Divine Officer's second-order spell.
This should be the special inheritance of Inari Shrine.
It's the same series as the spell that made Natsume suddenly grow fox ears before.
Rin Hoshino couldn't help but wonder in her heart.
Judging by these two spells, Inari Shrine should not be so obscure.
Under the thunder, many demons turned to ashes.
Haruhiko was not idle.
Priest: Blazing Sun!
The first first-order spell he learned in school.
A small sun appeared in the sky.
It glows with a scorching glow.
The surface of the demon's body suddenly burst into flames.
This is no ordinary flame.
It's extreme heat.
Although it is not as good as the open fire talisman, it has an extra restraint against demons.
The demons screamed and rolled on the ground.
Soon, there was no sound.
[You have destroyed the alien horde and gained 160 psionic points.] 】
Haruhiko nodded with great satisfaction.
This wave of harvesting is also thanks to Rin Hoshino.
"You ...... Damn it! ”
A murderous and rather gloomy voice sounded.
