Tokyo underground city

Chapter 267 Tsubaki

"What we are dealing with is a gathering place for poachers."

Uncle Jin used a notebook and scribbled something on it.

Lin Huai'en just glanced at it and copied the terrain on Terraris's map. Uncle Jin looked at him in surprise, then pointed to the activated map and explained -

"There are about thirty or forty of them, and they are all forced together by the 'Apostles of Lachesis'. Every night, the 'Apostles' will appear everywhere. If they don't gather together, they won't be able to survive at all."

"'Apostle of Lachesis'? What is that?"

Yuan Ximu leaned next to Lin Huai'en and glanced at Uncle Jin curiously.

And Uncle Jin smiled strangely, with a hint of joking flashing across his cheek like a knife——

"It's 'Viper'."

Uncle Jin paused and said: "To be precise, it is a [giant viper] that is more than ten meters long and can swallow a human in one bite."

A young man next to Uncle Jin glanced at Yuan Ximu: "The first floor of [Crosso's Wall] is mainly filled with various poisonous spiders; and the main monsters of [Lachesis' Wall] starting from the second floor , is the genus Viper; and the most powerful poison on the third level [Wall of Atropos] is a group of skeleton moths."

"...the three goddesses of fate..."

Lin Huai'en nodded. After his thinking memory increased to 5.0, his memory also improved a lot. As long as he has seen something, he will have a high probability of remembering it directly.

"Yes." The young man nodded and stretched out his hand to Lin Huai'en: "[Lachesis], a first-level researcher in the Records Department of the Shangdu City Prefectural Association, is also the head of the reconnaissance department of the Hongliu regular camp branch. The investigation report on the Poison Garden was written by my team."

"Lin Huaien."

Lin Huai'en shook hands with Razer. The two of them turned their attention back to the map without being polite.

"So, there are thirty-six invaders in total. Before nightfall, there should be one or two more teams... But there are also ordinary Shangcheng explorers among them, right? Do we want to kill them all?"

"Do as much as you can." Uncle Jin said, "It's best if you can save people's lives. It doesn't matter if you can't."

"We are police and they are gangsters. There is no need to be too polite to them."

Razer concluded.

After looking at the expressions of Lin Huai'en and others, and feeling that there were no other problems, Uncle Jin stood up and said, "That's the specific situation. Kill them. This is our task today."

.

[Dessert].

This is what Uncle Jin told Lin Huai'en and them.

According to Razer, Uncle Jin’s private hobby is cooking. Although it’s hard to tell, he also dealt with the thieves in the maze garden in the same way.

"Most of the association's explorers have little experience in 'fighting against people,' so you only need to be responsible for some of the 'sweeter' tasks."

Lin Huai'en and the others were placed at the outermost edge of the entire battle line of defense, specifically responsible for those fish that escaped from the encirclement net.

The Black Steel Operations Team and the Razer Operations Team, who were responsible for the main course and appetizers, were led by Uncle Jin and Razer respectively. They opened the way with large-scale flash shock bombs, destroying the poachers' perception ability in an instant.

The Razer Operation Team, which entered from the main entrance of the shelter, took the lead in killing the sentries, and then the Black Steel Operation Team, holding heavy shields, pushed forward like a chariot, holding steel shields and rifles. All poachers who got up in a hurry , knocked them all down with one shot.

"Get down! Get down! If you want to survive, throw away all the weapons in your hands!"

Lin Huai'en heard the roars of Uncle Jin and the others, and mixed in with them were curses and screams in various languages.

Seeing that the front of the shelter was in bad shape, many explorers wanted to escape through the secondary entrance on the side.

These people were also blocked back by Hongliu's explorers, and Lin Huai'en's defense line was close to Uncle Jin's direction, so no one came over.

However, several slightly familiar figures suddenly jumped out of Lin Huaien's field of vision.

Seeing those familiar figures, Lin Huaien hesitated for a moment, said hello to Tanya and Yuan Ximu, and lurked into the shadows.

.

The ghost-faced girl gasped desperately and kept running between the hedge walls.

Beginning with the Wall of Lachesis, these common, non-poisonous shrubs interspersed among the towering hedges can be safely crossed as long as the hazards are recognized.

And it was through this method that she escaped several times from the pursuers of the Dragon King Society.

But even so, the pain of severing her left foot, coupled with the hard work of traveling for days, had exhausted her strength.

After finally finding a goddess campsite, she ignored the ill-intentioned explorers and fell asleep against a safe hedge wall.

Because most poachers cannot tell the difference between poisonous plants and non-poisonous plants, they did not dare to approach the ghost-faced girl when they saw half of her body buried in the bush——

She was afraid that she would be contaminated by the poisonous shrubs around her and die suddenly.

However, after sleeping for less than three hours, Misaka Tsubaki was awakened by the sudden explosion. When she opened her eyes, she heard those Chinese-English voices urging surrender.

Unlike the kind-hearted and elegant people rumored to be outside, the Shangcheng explorers who were responsible for the raid were ruthless and decisive. Anyone who stood in front of them, whether they didn't react or really wanted to resist, were shot dead. On the contrary, the gun is dangerous, and it will even hit the chest, a place where it is easy to hit the dungeon pass.

Although he knew that the pass would not be simply damaged, this approach still violated the "etiquette" principle among ordinary explorers, which made people shudder.

It also revealed the identity of the visitor very clearly——

"These people are professional [scavengers]! We can't resist, we have to find a way to escape..."

The ghost-faced girl hesitated for a moment, touched the bush next to her, gritted her teeth, and got in directly.

The dense branches scratched her clothes. Fortunately, as she judged, it was a non-toxic plant.

After crawling about half a meter, she finally got out.

However, at this moment, the bush behind her suddenly burst into flames——

"Sure enough, I've been wondering why you can disappear inexplicably every time I corner you... It seems like the problem lies in these hedges."

Amagi appeared in front of Misaka Tsubaki with a smile and four or five samurai behind him.

The girl's expression hidden under the ghost's face was a bit shuddering——

"Amagi! The [Yamagiri Kiyomitsu] you want is not with me!"

Misaka Tsubaki raised her naginata with interest and pointed it at the young samurai.

The lazy young man with his right hand in the lapel of his kimono just waved his hand casually: "It doesn't matter, anyway, you are the only combatant left in Tianshui Pavilion. If I kill you, that little guy Tianshui Yu will never be brave again." The capital is gone.”

"Whether it's in your body or not, [Yamaki Kiyoko] will become the treasure of our Dragon King Association."

"……hateful."

Misaka Tsubaki glanced at Amagi and realized that it was useless to talk. She took a deep breath, and suddenly her body flashed with silver light. She repeated her trick and jumped over the hedge.

However, as soon as she jumped into the air, the pupils under the ghost face suddenly shrank——

I don't know when, Amagi had already followed her, lazily raised his right leg, turned around and kicked -

Misaka Tsubaki felt as if her body had hit some kind of invisible wall, and her whole body flew out.

"No...you're using too much force."

Amagi frowned: "I didn't expect that this little girl could use her strength to fight under such circumstances..."

Amagi fell to the ground, squatted slightly on one knee, and then glanced at the top of a garden stone pillar in the distance intentionally or unintentionally——

"You guys, surround me and don't let her go."

"Yes!" Several warrior subordinates shouted loudly.

But Amagi's eyes were looking at the shadow under the hedge intentionally or unintentionally.

.

"Huh...huh..."

Misaka Tsubaki felt like her breathing was as violent as a bellows.

Amagi's casual blow broke her ribs, and the bone fragments pierced her lungs. In addition, she hit a poisonous plant when she landed, and her whole body was now a little weak.

Even his breath was filled with blood—

"Is it about to end... No, Yu-kun is still waiting for me... I must get the [Colorful Deer], otherwise..."

Misaka Tsubaki staggered between the hedges. Her severe injuries prevented her from noticing that the smell of blood all over her body had attracted many uninvited guests.

The cold-blooded visitor slid on the ground with his flat body and kept approaching the girl.

The moment it opened its mouth wide, pointed at Misaka Tsubaki's head, and bit down——

The silent sword light cut open its head.

The huge snake head, which was as tall as a person, split into two pieces in the air.

"who is it!"

The spilled snake blood stimulated the dying Misaka Tsubaki. She steeled herself, pounced forward, turned around, and pointed the naginata behind her——

"The order given to us by the Lord is to bring you back alive. Although we still want to wait until you are exhausted before taking you away... but judging from the current situation, there is no such chance."

Four or five masked men in black kimonos emerged from the empty shadows.

Just by looking at them, Misaka Tsubaki knew that they were "black snakes" raised by Amagi, also known as "ninjas"!

"Damn it...you despicable guys..."

Misaka Tsubaki knows very well that in the red card stage, the combat effectiveness of ninjas will not be very high. The main tasks are tracking and reconnaissance. If she is in normal condition, let alone five people together, fifteen ninjas will not be her opponent. .

It's a pity that now she is the one who is forced to the end.

"Damn it... I'm not willing to give in!"

Misaka Tsubaki screamed with all her strength and launched a charge towards the ninjas, but the black snakes were also very aware of the gap between themselves and the girl, and were leisurely guarding her a few meters away.

Once she shows her flaw, he immediately throws shurikens and other long-range props to cut new wounds on the girl's body.

Strangely enough, every time these hidden weapons pierced the girl's back, Misaka Tsubaki would pull out the shuriken with a roar of pain.

The wounds exposed to the poisonous water will gradually heal within a minute or two.

When Black Snake finished throwing all the hidden weapons on his body, they found with some helplessness that the ghost-faced girl had gradually regained her strength except for the clothes on her back that were all pierced.

Just when the leader of the Black Snake felt that it would be meaningless to continue like this, Misaka Tsubaki suddenly found a direction, took a quick step, and jumped into the hedge.

"Damn it! It's a non-toxic hedge!"

The leader of the black snake cursed angrily and wanted to chase Misaka Tsubaki through the hedge.

However, as soon as his right hand was halfway into the hedge, he pulled out his arm in horror——

"No! This is a poisonous plant!"

Half of his arms were swollen and turned black.

The next second, the black snake leader took a step back, raised his head and died suddenly.

.

"cough!"

Misaka Tsubaki spit out black blood.

Forcing her way out of the poisonous hedge stimulated her already hidden injuries.

But she still relied on her instincts and staggered forward.

She lost a pair of cross-country boots without realizing it. When she came to her senses, there was only a white sock left on her feet, and she was soaked in the mountain spring. The blood all over her body was mixed with black blood. Spread out in the air.

Her body was leaning against the roots of a tree beside the pool, and a strange creature that looked like a deer but not a deer was staring at her with curious eyes, then slowly lowered its head and licked the wounds on her body.

The next second, Misaka Tsubaki felt an indescribable strong vitality spreading from her wound.

The toxins in his body and the weakness caused by blood loss all disappeared quickly.

When she came to her senses, she had already stood up.

The wounds all over his body, except for the tattered clothes, seemed to have completely disappeared like an illusion.

Not even a scar remained.

Looking at her naked chest, the girl subconsciously wanted to find something to cover it up.

However, at this moment, an exclamation suddenly came from beside her——

"Is this the 'Fountain of Destiny'... You must be seriously injured to enter here..."

The girl subconsciously raised her head and looked into the eyes of the black-haired young man.

The next second, the ghost face on her face, which had long been overwhelmed by the long battle, collapsed at the right moment.

Revealing the stunningly beautiful and pure face beneath the girl's mask.
