Chapter 222 Fragments of the Age of Gods

The underground space of the church.

Everyone felt as if they were walking in the ruins of an ancient city. The walls of many architectural relics around them were full of traces etched by the years. heaviness.

It is completely different from the broken walls and ruins before, because the surrounding buildings are no longer brick walls and concrete, but low earth walls and large and complete cornerstones—and all of them have been destroyed by the years. The shapes are vague, and many of them are buildings that are directly dug out of the ground and then crudely chiseled on both sides.

It's too old to be true, and it's so old that it makes people uncomfortable.

If it weren't for the traces that should be built by humans, and the outlines of those buildings that have been eroded by the years have an aesthetic angle similar to that of humans, I am afraid that many people have already started to retreat.

But even so, the atmosphere became depressing.The dark space is too empty, only the sound of footsteps can be heard far away, and everyone has subconsciously whispered when talking, as if the previous laughter never existed.

This relic seems to be the ruins of some ancient city. It was once huge. From the outlines of the buildings that are almost disappearing, anyone can outline a majestic and magnificent impression in their minds.

……

……

About another 10 minutes later.

"Wait, there is a mechanism ahead—" Mu Xiu, who hadn't spoken much at the front, suddenly stopped, and turned around two seconds later, saying in a strange tone, "This road may not work, it's better See if there are other passages."

"Mechanism? A trigger trap? There are all along the way?" Isayama Huangquan asked first, and everyone behind him also stopped at this time.

"If it is triggered, it may be a trap, or it may be something else. I have no research on this aspect. There are indeed all along the way, but...there are too many ahead."

Mu Xiu's expression seemed to be following the script, and he directly said the information he had read.It's just that in the dark environment, illuminated by the light of the flashlight, his face looked gloomy, and his flat tone of voice seemed to have a gloomy feeling.

"Passing this road, there are at least thirteen triggerable organs within 50 meters, and I don't rule out the ones I haven't noticed. Although it is said to be old and the possibility of failure is particularly high, the possibility of all of them still functioning is also high. Not without……"

The meaning of this sentence is that if such a group of people rushed over, they might be wiped out immediately, or nothing would happen.

The possibility of the former is far less than the latter, but as long as it is possible, no one wants to risk being beaten into a sieve, otherwise they will not be careful along the way.

"Can't it be ruled out? Or be more careful?" Akira Iwata said in a low voice. His nearly two-meter-high figure and full of knotted muscles are a great guarantee for everyone in the team to feel safe.

Even the real high-end combat power is actually those few people who look soft and weak without muscle lines.But people are visual animals after all, looking at the handsome and slender young boys and girls will only feel pleasing to the eye, but when they need to be protected by force, it is more reassuring to have a muscular brother covered in flesh.

Uh, it seems that certain aspects are more dangerous... But as much as you gain, you have to lose as much. Isn't this the iron law of the world?
"The previous ones are all separate, you can bypass them, but it's difficult to eliminate them. I haven't learned the relevant skills." Mu Xiu replied casually, and then seemed to think of something, and pulled out an appearance from nowhere Something like playdough or dough.

——There are still a few lines on the surface and a black timetable like a water meter. He directly adjusted the dial on it, and added a sentence casually.

"Maybe physical exclusion is more effective."

Physical exclusion?What do you mean? Everyone looked at each other, each seeing confusion in each other's eyes.

"Wait, wait, student Mu Xiu, this thing of yours is C4 plastic explosives, right?" Ayazaki Sa broke out in a cold sweat instantly, rushed to the front and grabbed the boy's arm, "What do you want to do?"

"..."

"..."

This word is naturally easier to understand, so everyone understood it one after another, and then they were all confused when they realized it. Everyone stepped back a few steps away from a dangerous person with black lines all over their heads.

"Huh? How do you know it's from C4?" Mu Xiu narrowed his eyes slightly, "Ayazaki-san, could it be that you have been exposed to these things before? This is not good, even if life is difficult, it is better to stay away from the gray areas as much as possible. "

"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, thank you for your correction..." The debtor steward nodded and apologized hastily, with a sincere attitude and correct words, as if politeness practiced by conditioned reflex.

However, the next moment he reacted, he was completely Spartan: "Wait a minute, I just know the knowledge of illegal items, why do you have the position to criticize me now that you are going to use illegal items directly! "

"Hey, there are always some things in the world that cannot be explained."

"You only say such handsome words at this time, and this kind of explanation is too general!"

Under the unanimous accusation of everyone, Mu Xiu had no choice but to give up such an easy way, no matter how simple, direct, rude and effective it was in his opinion.

After all, the topography in front determines that it is definitely not a trap like quicksand or flood. It will not be said that after the explosion, the flood will still flood over. A trap such as crossbow arrows with small area damage and poisonous smoke is the most likely. In this case, there is no need to worry about anything, just blow it up and solve your worries.

That's right, as long as a C4 passes by, everything will be settled properly.

It's a pity that it can't be used at all, not to mention accidental injury or something, it is impossible for everyone to choose to use this thing in the underground space at the risk of collapse.

Since the explosives could not be used, Mu Xiu could only sigh, and stretched out his right hand to hold down the hilt of the weapon held by his left——

"Then, please step back a little, and be careful not to be accidentally injured."

Such a fluffy sentence made people feel anxious again. What does this guy want to do?However, seeing Mu Xiu's actions, the eyes of several people in the countermeasure room froze instantly, and their spirits were highly concentrated.

They probably vaguely guessed a little bit, so they all stared with wide-eyed eyes——

Spiritual beast spirits, arcane runes, and the fighting style and tactical mode of the exorcists are naturally not pure physical skills or extreme additions to spells, but a powerful combat power that can only be exerted when combined.

The most intuitive example is the Special Tactics Section [-] recently established by the Supernatural Disaster Countermeasures Headquarters of the Ministry of Defense.

The members of the Special Warfare Class [-] do not rely on the power of the exorcist family, but are composed of special talents who can see spirits recruited with favorable conditions, and rely more on cooperative operations and advanced equipment.

Among the main members, Kanshitoru and Kasuga Natsuki, both of them have the half-talented talent of being able to see evil spirits without using special abilities, that is, they have the ability of spiritual vision, but they have not really become exorcists. qualification.In the past, this kind of person was the most unlucky. Seeing the evil spirit means that the evil spirit is more likely to notice you, and there is no possibility of growing up to resist...

However, according to the information obtained by the head of the room, the results are somewhat unbelievable. With the help of the team, these two half-baked people have successfully cured the class B evil with the help of the spirit gun and the demon-killing motorcycle. spiritual experience.

This means that those two people are comparable to Isayama Koizumi in terms of ability under certain conditions.In the future, as long as repeated experiments are repeated and the tactics are perfected, the fourth lesson of special warfare may come in handy earlier than the scheduled time——

Then snatch the resources and status of the countermeasure room, as well as its importance.

After all, a large part of the reason why the Fourth Special Warfare Division was able to be established was because some bureaucrats could not stand the countermeasure room that could not be fully controlled by them.

But that's for the future, whether it's Isayama Koizumi, Koji Iwatata, the Naboo brothers, etc., they just want to know that the killing god who suddenly appeared in front of them can be described as the youth genre of the legendary exorcist and means.

——This is the most concerned thing in the entire spiritual industry. I don’t know how many people have racked their brains to get such information.

Because the previous killing was too terrifying, but no one knew how he did it, spirit beast?Witch bug?Conjuration?Enchantment?Anyway, no one knew what school this person was from, and there was even no definite evidence that he was really an exorcist.

However, now, it seems that a few people in the countermeasure room have the opportunity to see it with their own eyes. Even if their knowledge is not enough to make a judgment, they can still send the information back to let the room chief and the more experienced exorcist Teacher to judge...

Facts have proved that in an overly nervous mood, people's thinking will become faster.

However, everyone in the countermeasure room did not admit such a thing. They only thought that they and others might be in a daze, because their eyes widened but they didn't see anything. They only saw the target person gently pull out the knife and then push it back.

"..."

"..."

that's it?Is it because you suddenly remembered that we were still there, and you didn't intend to expose it?
Such a thought flashed by, and was interrupted by the roar of the wind the next moment, followed by a bang, which made the feet tremble like an earthquake.In the next moment, as huge laser beams flashed one after another, the surrounding air was torn apart, and the pervasive dust was smashed into pieces with a bang.

Huge laser beams shot out from all directions, and then a huge tornado appeared like a vacuum knife.

The violent wind pressure almost made people unable to open their eyes, and only the rumbling noise could be heard in their ears. When the smoke and dust cleared up, the road ahead was already in a mess, and the traces of the underground passage could barely be seen. , shattered into a pile of ruins and rocks.This is great, at least absolutely all traps are out of order.

There are only a total of seven straight "knife wounds", stretching tens of meters on the flat road ahead, extending from various irregular angles to the end of the darkness, until the line of sight can no longer be seen.

"..."

Completely ignoring the eyeballs that fell all over the ground behind him, Mu Xiu shook his palms with a strange expression. No one noticed that there were several deep strangle marks on his fingers in an instant, which did not break the skin, but Yin Hong Beads of blood seeped out slowly.

In the next second, if he felt something, he looked towards a direction in the darkness, and three figures walked over.

"Hey, classmate Daisy... Uh, what's wrong with Teacher Gui?"

He just opened his mouth to say hello, but his attention was immediately drawn to Gui Xuelu.The latter was forced to move forward with a wooden knife by the expressionless student council president, and he had a ferocious but helpless expression on his face, which could only be gritted teeth.

"We saw Mrs. Gui on the way here, but she is possessed by an evil spirit, and I haven't had time to exorcise her yet." Before Daisy Gui had time to speak, Saginomiya Yicheng explained softly.

Isayama Huangquan was the first to express his doubts: "Possessed by evil spirits? It's unlikely. Pure possessed spirits are rarely so powerful, and she doesn't have tumors that commonly parasitize evil spirits. How could she be easily captured by evil spirits?" Get it under control?"

"Guixue Road" snorted coldly: "I rented it, for only 100 million yen, this woman will readily hand over her body to me to control..."

"..."

"..."

At this time, it is better to pretend not to hear.Mu Xiu looked at Yicheng, the palace of the heron.The girl seemed to be very hesitant, as if she had something to say, and after a few seconds, she said to everyone expectantly:

"Well, I saw something in other places just now, the problem may be very complicated... because this ruin itself may be a fragment of the Age of Gods."

Mu Xiu blinked his eyes, and didn't react immediately, but he subconsciously thought of a word that he forgot to see somewhere.

——The ruins of the saint?
