52. Red Prajna
Asahina in 1993 had not yet built an airship site, but what appeared on the horizon was indeed a small airship that was much smaller than the common passenger airships in the world today, and was a small private model.
One of the main bodies of the airship, the metal air chamber above, its hard brass-colored shell licked by a beating tongue of fire. The airship chamber is shaped like a miniature version of a whale, which can give the witch below a sense of oppression.
The ignited airship crashed into the shrine at great speed, and no one knows why it fell here, or what happened in the cabin and what kind of "pomp" it would bring to Asahina.
Only the summoner of this airship knows that its air chamber and cabin are loaded with a large number of flammable potions, capable of dragging the entire Asahina into a sea of fire, destroying all the sins buried in the depths of the mountain forest.
This happened in the past reincarnation, and with Naling staring at the falling airship, the sleeping memory was awakened in a small part.
"On that night 30 years ago, when I combined with the will of the other dead witches and woke up as a strange story, the whole of Asahina was surrounded by endless karmic fire, like hell. It was a beautiful scene that I will never forget in my life. ”
"You're dead, stuck between this life and the next."
Yue coldly interrupted her emotion.
"It's too much, if you want me to say that you can't find a girlfriend like this. No witch likes to speak too bluntly and doesn't know how to take care of her mood. ”
And Naling gave her a merciless riposte.
The falling airship slowed down the witches chasing them, and some of them turned back to try to extinguish the shrine that had been set on fire. The shrine is the spiritual sustenance of the Asahina people, and they do not want to be destroyed in any way.
Massive metal whales crashed through the enclosure and walls, flammable potions stored inside leaked during the impact, flowing from the broken air chambers and guest cabins, pungent smells and golden liquids flooded the shrine's incense gas, and the town's oldest and most gorgeous buildings were embraced by the dancing firelight.
"We don't know who did it, but they are definitely helping us. Two-thirds of the witches have already been rushed back, and the remaining third, hopefully we can get rid of them. ”
"It should be Mrs. Yoshino."
Rieki remembered the old witch's words clearly.
- I always wish I could do something.
The weak witch who has been tormented by pain has always been the end of the story, and has burned her beloved Asahina in reincarnation again and again. The moment she let the airship fall, her mood must have been complicated.
Sadness? Extrication? Or is it relieved?
Maybe both.
That sentence was a sign of Lady Yoshino's determination, and they were grateful, dodging the magical attacks thrown by the remaining witches, and flying towards Kisaragi Station with all their might.
Tsuki, who was flying behind, was very concerned about what happened in Asahina Town, and used level 4 [Wide Field of Vision] magic. It is a level of visual magic that is higher than the [All-Seeing Eye] magic and the [Farsighted] magic, and it takes into account the advantages and disadvantages of both magic.
The huge loss of mental power is the most obvious disadvantage, and since you want to save the trouble of shortening the space distance, you have to pay the corresponding price. Just watch for ten minutes, and the remaining magic power is enough to deal with the next battle.
The moon flies with her back to the shrine, but she knows everything that is happening there at a glance.
The fall of the airship caused the effect of one stone stirring up a thousand waves, and the entire Asahina fell into chaos. The townsfolk don't know where the airship came from, the upcoming festival has been destroyed, the building has been destroyed, the unquenchable flames have reduced the wooden building to charred ruins and ashes, the life that was as calm as stagnant water suddenly turned into boiling water, and the weak witches are like fish struggling around and dying.
More and more witches flew away on broomsticks, and those who did not have brooms had to flee to the open square in front of the town, and some fled to the beach and the docks.
Confusion, invective, weeping, complaining...... A lot of dark negativity and black smoke from the burning hovered over the town. From the dazzling firelight stepped a stinging figure, the stinging sensation of the bright red armor.
The bright colors reflected in the firelight made the man look more and more like a bloodied bō rě. Pranya is a kind of resentful spirit in Japanese legend, and it is said that it is a female evil spirit formed by strong jealousy and resentment, and it is divided into laughing prajna, white prajna, and red prajna.
It was evident that the one who emerged from the flames was the Red Prajna. Seeing her, the townsfolk witches suddenly knelt down reverently, put their heads on the ground, and called "Lord Goddess".
The witches prayed to the goddess to extinguish the flames and save Asahina from the dire situation as she had done in the past.
Yue knew it wasn't a goddess. The goddess had long since died, and on the night of the change in Honnoji, she was besieged in the burning temple with Oda Nobunaga, ending her short life.
Someone put on the armor of the goddess of the mountain, and when the festival was a mess, she dressed up as her, and appeared gorgeously in front of the witches, making people look forward to what would happen next.
While she was looking at the town with wide-area vision magic, she also had to fend off magical attacks from all directions, and the difficulty and intensity were instantly full.
Ruiji and Naling start a cooperative battle, and Yonaling observes the airspace road conditions for her from behind, reminds her of which direction there is an enemy, and counterattacks with weak spells from time to time.
Ruyue Station is getting closer and closer, and only the last few tens of meters remain.
The familiar gray-and-green train came from the depths of the night, the metal serpents that crawled through the mountains roared, the sound of the rails rubbing against the rails echoed in the empty wilderness, and the white light was faint, but Ryji could see it vividly.
The chasing witch was gradually shot down, and the remaining few people combined were not Tsuki's opponents. The moon is very strong, strong in the literal sense, never plays flower fists and acrobatics when fighting, two revolver-type staffs move freely in her hands, and the slender knuckles pull the arc next to the trigger, allowing the revolver to rotate in an extremely elegant arc to complete the loading of magic ammunition.
She carried out a steady and continuous fire suppression of the weak witch who was in pursuit, not two guns fired at the same time, when one gun was almost out of ammunition, the other gun seamlessly connected, and immediately replenished the bullet nest in the process of shooting, leaving no gap in the attack.
The high-intensity shooting frightened the weak witches who had never seen the world, and seeing that the number of people was getting smaller and smaller, the remaining few decided to give up the chase and return to Asahina.
The cold wind blew through the Ruyue station, causing goosebumps for Ruiji, who was standing by the platform and waiting for the train. There are two more companions next to him, and the weird platform has become more intimate and less terrifying than when I first met.
Moon always looked in the direction of the town and didn't say a word.
