I teach kendo in Tokyo

"No, no, that woman's temper will never tolerate betrayers. If I go back, I will be grilled into a fish fillet immediately."

The catfish spirit shook his head like a drum, saying that it would be more promising to follow Mr. Kiryu, and emphasized that in his mind, Mr. Kiryu was far better than the female monster who was fascinated by Horon Aikawa in terms of strength and weapons.

"You guys are pretty good at adapting to the wind." Kazuma smiled bitterly and shook his head.

The one who stayed by his side in such an embarrassing situation was actually an unreliable fish monster. This was really a ridiculous development. However, monsters have the habit of obeying superiors. The catfish spirit who lost to Kazuma recognized him as the superior. It was no surprise that he was following, but Kazuma followed this line of thought and suddenly remembered the rank rules that Tamamo had told him.

According to the fox, the residents of the mysterious side are divided into high-ranking people and low-ranking people according to their strength. Although it is natural for a subordinate to obey a superior, if two superiors appear in the same area, they will inevitably have to fight it out just like the Pokémon trainers who have fallen in love with each other.

The superior's duel does not require any reason and will continue until one of the parties surrenders or flees.

Tamamo personally admitted that Kazuma was a superior being, and the fact that he had seized control from the Dream-eating Tapir in the Chang'an dream was enough to prove that he indeed had this ability.

On the cruise ship where darkness falls at this moment, Murasaki Shikibu chooses to hide and not meet him, indicating that the duel between Pokémon trainers has not been triggered. As for the reason why it was not triggered, Kazuma probably believes that his own "purity" is not enough - compared to the big monsters who have lived in the mysterious side for more than a thousand years, he has only recently stepped into the mysterious side and is not a real treasure. Kemen trainer.

Regardless of strength, prestige and karma are not enough to stimulate Murasaki Shikibu's fighting spirit. I am afraid this is the reason why the duel mechanism was not triggered.

In other words, as long as Murasaki Shikibu thinks that she is an equal being to him, the great monster's dignity and long-term habits will make her come out to fight Kazuma happily.

As the starting point of this round of riots, the infirmary was cordoned off by the cruise ship security team.

After Hema opened the cordon and entered the infirmary, he found that the place was still in the same condition as when the riot began. Even the "vaccines" that caused the disaster were placed in the original storage boxes.

Kazuma walked over and took out the vaccine, then took out an unopened syringe from the side, and drew the serum in the bottle into the syringe.

"Master Kiryu, you...do you really want to inject yourself with that thing?"

The catfish spirit next to him asked, and even now his face is still full of disbelief.

"That's right, now that the situation has come to an end, it's time to gamble, and if you win, you can make a comeback."

Kazuma declared quite proudly.

This decision may sound rather hasty and irresponsible, but it is based on Kazuma's exact understanding of the world line.

In this world line, Kazuma knew that mental power could exert an unparalleled influence, and the entry he saw was the embodiment of mental power. Compared to ordinary people who are mentally weak, Kazuma who has the protection of multiple entries has a great chance of successfully resisting the urge to run away after being injected with the serum.

After this hidden danger is eliminated, Kazuma can use its effect to step deeper into the mysterious test and become a Pokémon trainer... Bah, become a superior among the big monsters, challenge Murasaki Shikibu's dominance in Chang An, and thus Turn the situation around in one fell swoop.

Of course, Kazuma was not absolutely sure of success, but compared to the tragic ending of the entire crew being buried in the belly of a fish, a 50% certainty was enough to make it worth the risk.

While recalling the scene of the doctor's injection, Kazuma inserted the needle into his arm, and then, under the horrified gaze of the catfish spirit, he slowly injected the serum into his body.

Ordinary medicine injections are often accompanied by a cold feeling, but the feeling of super serum injection is completely opposite.

Kazuma felt a burning sensation coursing through his blood vessels. Every cell in his body was agitated as if on stimulants, and his body muscles were rapidly expanding amid uncontrollable tremors.

At the same time, an indescribable excitement surged into his head.

Kazuma raised his head tremblingly and found that the vision in front of him was dyed red, and he also heard the sound of teeth being gritted.

Kazuma clenched his fists and tried to resist the manic mood, but his whole face was swollen red, and his body was more like a covered volcano on the verge of erupting.

Feeling the violent demonic energy that was on the verge of losing control, the catfish spirit watching from the side retreated in panic.

He Ma gritted his teeth and tried his best to support himself. Just as his consciousness was gradually blurring, he suddenly heard the sound of a tin stick shaking.

The clear sound was like snow pouring down from the head, and Kazuma's originally burned-out expression suddenly became ethereal.

Seizing that fleeting opportunity, Kazuma began to use his breath to guide the heat that was on the verge of explosion in his body, stimulating its flow and directing the heat to his limbs.

Of course, this process does not happen overnight, but finding the direction is equivalent to solving the problem.

Kazuma endured the anxiety and continued to exert force. Gradually, the surging heat washed away his body, and the muscles that had swelled like air slowly returned to their original size.

Although the size of the body remains unchanged, the "quality" has undergone earth-shaking changes. Kazuma clearly feels the foreign "qi" filling his body, and is convinced that he has embarked on a completely different journey from the ghost transformer. Different paths.

Kazuma looked down and saw that the surrounding space seemed to be shaking as he moved his fingers.

The corners of his mouth curved, and the power derived from the mysterious law seemed to have been subdued by him.

At this moment, he caught a glimpse of the catfish spirit kneeling in awe from the corner of his eye. As if to echo this high-spirited emotion, Murasame on his hand also made a high-pitched buzzer.

Kiryu Kazuma slowly raised Murasame, raised his head and roared. The pressure of the big demon spread out to the surroundings with the roar, and the commotion sweeping the entire ship seemed to have been pressed to a stop button at that moment.

By the time the sword he picked up was chopped into pieces, Amao had already left double-digit slash marks on the bodies of the ghosts and gods he fought with. If he had been a human being, even if he hadn't died, he would have lost his mobility due to excessive blood loss. .

However, the ghost body blessed by Chang An has physical strength and endurance that subvert common sense. The moment Amao chopped off the sword, the multiple cuts left earlier were almost healed.

Amao dodged to avoid the claw attack from the ghost body, and used a sliding shovel to pick up the rifle that fell on the ground and fired at the ghost body.

The bullets fired from the rifle hit the ghost body like rubber hitting a steel plate. The ghost body didn't even bother to block.

Amao gasped and stepped back. A moment later, the cabin board where he was standing was directly lifted up by the ghost body - this battle with almost no chance of victory seemed to be a double torture of both the spirit and the body.

If possible, I really don’t want to fight against such a monster in my whole life.

Amao groaned in his heart, and from the corner of his eye he caught sight of Chiyoko, who was protecting Feng Guoniang not far away.

Chiyoko looked like she wanted to rush to help, but Amao knew that if Chiyoko got involved with the ghost body, it would only lead to an unacceptable outcome.

So Amao smashed the rifle at the ghost body and yelled loudly to draw the opponent's attention to himself.

However, his provocation was obviously unsuccessful. The ferocious and roaring ghost body over there turned its head to a different square angle from Chiyoko's, and then suddenly became quiet.

The defense line set up by the Nanjo family security team with heavy firepower in front of the residential area can be called the last fortress of the cruise ship.

A few minutes ago, this fortress was attacked by five ghosts and gods at the same time, and it immediately fell into a precarious situation.

The reason why they were not trapped on the spot was because the old housekeeper Suzuki who rushed back carried two ghost bodies alone, while the other ghost body was also restrained by the eldest lady who came out of the battle.

With them sharing more than half of the targets, the security squad was able to focus their firepower on the remaining two ghosts.

The security squad in the narrow cabin used rifle grenades to bombard the advancing ghost body.

The rumbling explosion of the grenade made the ghost body roar in pain, and the thick smoke produced by the explosion disturbed their sight.

A ghostly body temporarily lost its direction and stepped into the passage beside the corridor, which triggered the directional mine installed there.

Hundreds of thick and thin holes were punched in the body amid the dense explosions, and he fell heavily with a wailing sound.

Seeing that a ghost body was eliminated, the guard SP couldn't help but cheer, but they were obviously happy too early.

Another ghost body took advantage of the same moment to detonate the mine and broke through the obstacle in front of the defense line. With a wave of its claws, several guard SPs flew out on the spot.

Although the other SPs reacted immediately, they were unable to use heavy firepower at such a distance, and the only fate waiting for them was to be brutally killed one-sidedly.

Not far away, the old housekeeper, who was fighting against two ghosts and gods on his own, sensed the crisis in the defense line, but was too late to rescue him.

Behind the defense line are ordinary people who are defenseless. If the ghosts and gods attack there, an unprecedented bloody massacre will be staged. The old housekeeper roared, trying to fight for his life to deal with the ghosts and gods in front of him before going over to reinforce them. However, at this moment, the ghost body that was fighting with him suddenly stopped moving.

It wasn't just the ghosts and gods that stopped moving, the whole battlefield suddenly became quiet as if it had been swallowed up by something.

Mr. Suzuki looked up at the deck above with awareness, and exchanged particularly solemn looks with Honami who was not far away.

"It suddenly quieted down?"

In the shelter at the bottom of the cruise ship, Horon Aikawa looked up in surprise.

Although he has nothing to do with warrior aura or Chang An Yao aura, he is keenly aware of changes in the environmental atmosphere.

When I was thinking about what happened, I suddenly heard the sound of grinding teeth next to me.

Horon Aikawa turned his head in surprise, and then saw his female companion gnashing her teeth.

"Kizuma Kiryu, it looks like I have to have a showdown with you."

Murasaki Shikibu stared at the deck above, his voice sounding like a vicious curse, but mixed with a bit of admiration and awe.

This is the difference between monsters and humans. Monsters are much more animalistic than humans. Faced with an equal existence that suddenly breaks into their "sphere of influence", they must decide the outcome.

This is the same instinct as in the Pokémon game, "Pokémon trainers must duel after they meet their eyes." It is also an iron rule.
