Hunter: I’m Really Not a Mind Remover

The moon is dark and the wind is high.

The strong wind roared in the mountains, rolling up thousands of fallen leaves.

The surrounding trees were shaking and making a continuous rustling sound.

Under the darkness of night, these large trees standing around sway like ghostly shadows, exuding an eerie atmosphere amidst the roaring wind.

Moyu walked to the artificial platform. The guiding lights on both sides were in disrepair and could only barely emit a faint light.

But in this dark environment, even if the light is weak, it is still very eye-catching.

"It's a coincidence..."

"Still prepared?"

Feeling the vague killing intent, Moyu remained calm.

He couldn't be sure whether the other party came for the high bounty or for the Nitolomi he brought back from the Dark Continent.

If it was the former, then his itinerary in the past few days must have been noticed by this group of people who valued wealth as much as their lives, and they planned to intercept and kill him here.

if the latter one……

Then it's not good news for Moyo.

That meant that his move to the Dark Continent had been seen by some interested people a long time ago.

Then, as if believing that he could come back safely, or adhering to the concept that he would rather spend all his energy than miss it, he stayed there for nearly a year.

No matter what the possibility is, Moyu has to carefully consider Hawke's safety.

As well as the unknown person hiding in the darkness, their strength should not be underestimated.

If his perception hadn't been tempered by the Dark Continent and was now different from what it used to be, it would have been difficult to detect the aura in the first place.

The other party came prepared and had the upper hand after all...

But it's hard to say now.

"First shorten the distance to the top of the mountain, and then send a shadow to the temple first."

Moyu looked ahead, keeping the speed of his feet, and strode towards the wooden stairs leading to the top of the mountain.

Although he was ready to fight, he also had to take Hawke's safety into consideration.

Therefore, he planned to close the distance to the temple on the top of the mountain as much as possible before the opponent took action to ensure the strength and control accuracy of the shadow.

This is important.

For this reason, he didn't even send his shadow in advance to be in a position where he could use his "tactics".

"Very patient and cautious."

As he strode up the mountain stairs, Moyu remained calm, but felt slightly surprised in his heart.

Along the way, there are many opportunities for attack.

However, the person hidden in the darkness actually held back...

"Judging from the 'aura state', you probably haven't noticed it yet, right?"

Moyu looked up diagonally upward and could already see the lights of the temple on the top of the mountain.

"It doesn't matter, this distance...should be enough."

Measuring the distance with the naked eye, Moyou's heart moved, and he suddenly raised his hand, and the power of thoughts like flowing water quickly gathered in the palm of his hand.

Black knife——

As bright thoughts floated, Yu Moyu quickly condensed into a long black knife in his hand.

"Speed ​​Gun"

The black knife held flat suddenly stirred up electric arc-like mental power, and shot into the darkness not far away without any energy.

now.

In the darkness, a look of surprise flashed across the eyes of a lean figure, who was obviously surprised by Moyu's first move.

"Hey, hey...my Zetsu isn't this bad yet, is it?"

Thoughts of surprise passed by, and the lean figure stepped back a few steps to avoid the shooting trajectory of the black knife.

In the darkness, I saw the black knife with the aura of telepathy coming through the air, passing in front of the lean figure, and then crushing the big trees along the way with unabated force, and disappeared further away in the blink of an eye. In the dark.

Dodging this shocking attack, the lean figure had no extra time to pay attention to the retreating black knife, but continued to sweep backwards.

As he retreated, a blade of light with lingering mental power fell on his original position.

"Tsk, tsk, it's really fast, but what's the use?"

The lean figure swept out of the attack range of the long sword, and looked forward with a bit of teasing in his eyes.

"Since you have noticed my position, you shouldn't fight so badly. Moyu Isaac, you missed the only opportunity to easily deal with me."

As if he was not worried about Moyu's follow-up pursuit at all, the lean figure retreated, but he was interested in saying a few words.

Moyu did not pursue him, his eyes calmly stared at the lean figure glowing with telepathy in the darkness.

That blow just now——

It's more about sending the shadow to the temple on the top of the mountain faster.

certainly.

It was impossible for him to read out the motive for this behavior.

"Who are you……"

Mo Yuna has adapted to the dark vision and can barely see the other party's appearance.

He has a lean body shape and a face as long as a horse. He wears a golden headband on his forehead. He has a short hair style and a heart shape is specially shaved off the top of his head close to his forehead, which is right in the middle of the golden headband. .

The upper body is covered with a fighting-style combat uniform, and wristbands full of bronze are worn on the elbows. The word "Shen" is printed generously on the chest.

It has a variety of highly personal characteristics, making its identity readily apparent.

"Twelve Earthly Branches, Shen Monkey Journeys to the West..."

The calmness in his eyes was broken, and Mo You was slightly startled. He had no idea that the person ambushing here was actually Shen Monkey, one of the twelve earthly branches.

Why are you squatting here with me?

The doubts that just emerged in my mind were quickly pierced by some information.

Shen Monkey Journey to the West, Spy, Paris Stone, Byande, Dark Continent...

After all, Moyu is a time traveler. With some information about prophet attributes, he quickly thought of Shen Hou's identity as a spy in the Twelve Earthly Branches, as well as Pariston and Byande standing behind him.

From this point of view, the other party's motive for guarding him here is most likely to see what he brought back from the Dark Continent.

Or rather——

Based on his non-stop behavior of rushing to the scenic temple, we have concluded that he did bring something back, and it is more likely that he has guessed that it is Nitolomi.

because……

Hawke was sent to the Hunter Association's exclusive hospital for treatment. It is not difficult to investigate the relevant medical records.

His thoughts spread rapidly and he speculated on a lot of information.

But Moyu quickly stopped his thoughts.

This inferred information is not necessarily true, and the current situation is not suitable for further investigation.

"Come."

Moyu raised his hand and pointed directly at Xiyou with the tip of the knife.

"If you want to die, I will help you."

A scene darker than the surrounding night appeared in his eyes, and his seemingly calm tone revealed a bone-chilling chill.

When Xiyou saw this, he was not afraid at all. Instead, he grinned and said unscrupulously: "Why, judging from your sudden 'nervousness', you must be worried about the one in the temple..."

Xiyou's words were interrupted by a strong gust of wind in the night.

Moyou's figure was like lightning, and he flashed in front of Xiyou with a black knife in his hand.

Xiyou's pupils shrank slightly, but he was already prepared.

Unscrupulous and unbridled...

This in itself is a display of his unique personality.

But when used in battle, these character displays cannot bring about any changes in combat effectiveness.

Their existence is only for tactical purposes.

"Speaking Monkey, Listening Monkey, Seeing Monkey"

Just as Moyu stepped in front of Xiyou, three monkeys emerged from the shadows and appeared behind Moyu with quite precise timing.

Those three monkeys are the mind beasts from Journey to the West.

One is a mute monkey named Talking Monkey. His ability is that when he successfully hits an enemy, he can directly deprive him of his language.

One is a deaf monkey named Listening Monkey, whose ability is to directly deprive him of his hearing when he successfully hits an enemy.

One is a blind monkey named Sight Monkey, whose ability is to directly deprive his vision of an enemy when he successfully hits it.

Xiyou's unbridled talk just now was just to wait for this moment.

Although it was an unexpected development for Moyu to detect the ambush, he quickly came up with a new plan and put it into action while avoiding Moyu's attacks and tricks.

Westward Journey not only prepared attack methods for Moyu, but also prepared defensive methods that could resist Moyu's first wave of offensive.

"Wishful stick"

Xiyou's grin tightened, and a golden stick with two ends as round as balls materialized out of thin air in his hand.

He has two kinds of telepathy abilities, one is the three telepathy monkeys, and the other is this wishful thinking stick.

The ability of this wishful stick is that it can become longer or shorter, thinner or thicker at will.

However, Journey to the West did not devote all his telekinesis to mobilizing the Ruyi Stick's form-changing ability. He just placed the Ruyi Stick across the trajectory of the black knife.

It's not that he doesn't want to use his abilities, but that he must devote more of his manifest energy to the three mind monkeys to ensure the implementation of this tactic.

In a flash of lightning, Moyu saw clearly all of Westward Journey's tactical arrangements.

Behind them are three Nian Monkeys attacking, and in front is Journey to the West who clearly just wants to hold on and increase his fault tolerance.

When a normal person encounters this kind of situation, he will probably stop the attack and try to find a way to resolve the opponent's tactics.

After all, no one knows what abilities those three mind monkeys have, so no one with mind abilities is willing to challenge such unknown risks.

But Moyo knew.

Language, hearing, vision——

It tends to be a functional deprivation of ability and does not have lethality in the sense.

In other words, Moyu doesn't have to worry about these three mind monkeys causing him any substantial harm.

In this way, we must seize this offensive opportunity.

So what if I stick to it with a wishful stick?

The manifested energy is distributed on the three mind beasts and the Ruyi Stick, which means that the frontal offensive and defensive power is destined to be significantly affected and weakened.

Moyu's instantaneous thinking ability exploded, processing all the information at lightning speed, and making corresponding decisions in an instant.

This is an essential fighting quality for those with first-rate telekinesis ability.

Moyu didn't back down, turning a blind eye to the attack of the three telepathic monkeys behind him. The black knife in his hand lingered with telepathy, and he headed westward without hesitation.

"This guy is crazy..."

Seeing Moyu's decision, Xiyou's expression changed.

Under normal circumstances, no one with telekinesis would act recklessly before testing out information.

The issue is--

You're not a reinforcement type!

Xiyou was shocked in his heart. Although he was deeply surprised, he could only raise his wishful stick and retreat at the same time.

This response can be said to be an unreserved implementation of the intention, in order to block Moyu's sword with the lowest risk area.

In his opinion, as long as he can prevent this knife...

Then, his three chanting monkeys can deprive Moyu of his language, hearing, and vision in one go, thus establishing his chances of winning in advance.

However--

The black knife fell on the Ruyi Stick, and the expected collision did not happen.

Under Xiyou's stunned gaze, the Ruyi stick that was supposed to be his first line of defense was easily cut off by the black knife.

laugh--

Without the crossbar of the Ruyi Stick, the black blade cut open the big word "Shen" on Xiyou's chest from top to bottom.

But just when the dark and sharp blade cut along the middle of the word "Shen", the blade disappeared out of thin air.

Because Moyu used the ability of "transformation" when he drove the black sword to the westward journey, he instantly switched places with the shadow clone who rushed to the temple on the mountain top.

The replaced shadow clone did not have the ability to manifest the black sword, so the scene where the black sword disappeared out of thin air naturally occurred.

Bang bang bang...

At this time, the shadow clone that had just been replaced was attacked by three disabled mind monkeys.

However, the shadow clone that withstood the attack did not suffer much damage and could still maintain its form intact.

This result is just as Moyu judged at the beginning...

Although we can rely on a small amount of information in the original work to get information about Journey to the West's telekinesis ability.

However, the original work did not accurately show the battle scenes in Journey to the West, so Moyu could only start with this information to gain a deeper understanding of Journey to the West's abilities.

He determined that the abilities of the three mind monkeys tended to be functional, so their lethality must be lacking.

This is an unavoidable oath and restriction in the mind system.

Another basis for confirming this conjecture is the wish-fulfilling stick that was embodied in Journey to the West.

It is precisely because the three functional monkeys lack lethality that they need to be supplemented by the Ruyi Stick.

After this speculation, even if the shadow clone is too late to be replaced at the last moment, Moyu doesn't have anything to worry about.

After all, the only Ruyi stick that can constitute substantial lethality is used by Xiyou for defense...

This is the fundamental reason why Moyu dared to take risks and go all the way to the dark side.

The shadow clones did not collapse due to the attacks of the three mind monkeys, which gave Moyu the opportunity to come back and connect with the second wave of attacks.

However, Moyu did not do this.

Because the three mind monkeys activated their abilities by hitting the attack.

The shadow clone that was attacked suddenly lost its language, vision, and hearing.

What Moyu didn't expect was...

This curse-like ability actually directly affected him.

Without any hesitation, after losing his vision and other sensory abilities, Moyu controlled the shadow clone to withdraw from the front and rear double-teaming of the three Nian Monkeys and Xiyou.

Xiyou had no intention of chasing the shadow clone. He lowered his head and glanced at the word "Shen" that was split open on his chest and the ferocious knife wound that covered his flesh and blood, and he couldn't help but frown slowly.

"What a mad dog."

Taking a deep breath, Xiyou's eyes became cold.

"Forget it...he has lost his hearing and vision. The odds of winning are on my side."

Journey to the West turned his attention to the temple on the top of the mountain.

He roughly knows the information about Moyu's ability, and his three telepathy monkeys can directly activate the deprivation ability whether they attack the telepathy clone or the main body.

Strictly speaking, his ability just restrains the mind clone system.

This was also his starting point for designing tactics. There was no need to worry that Moyu would use telepathy clones and exchange abilities to avoid attacks.

It's just that he didn't expect that Moyu would make such an unconventional decision without knowing the "monkey mind ability".

If not for this——

He would not have suffered such a blow, and if he had not resolutely defended and retreated early, the consequences would have been disastrous.

But fortunately, the Monkey Mind ability is activated, so I just need to finish it quickly.

Xiyou took care of the injury slowly, as if victory was already within his grasp.

after all--

He couldn't see the black hyphae spreading from the wound on his chest.
