I’m a Witch In Dongying

Remember to guard the corridor outside the elevator, and do not let other people approach at will, so as to avoid unnecessary accidental injury. "

After getting the combination of numbers from Takeshi Asakura, Bai Shuiqiu motioned them to step back and guard each floor where the elevator passed by in groups of two. Then he took Jiufeng Ziyuan and Yu Nu himself and tried it in the elevator.

There are a total of 13 numbers on the array given by Takeshi Asakura.

However, the number of floors in Shiraishi Apartment is only 6, which means that more than half of the numbers are repeated.

As the lights came on one by one, the elevator began to go up and down the inside of the building.

The elevator doors also opened and closed.

In Bai Shuiqiu and Fengli's perception, the yin in the entire apartment building gradually increased, and every time the door was opened, the corridor scene in front of him became more and more blurred, as if there was some kind of force affecting to a certain extent. They look the same.

Even the silhouettes of Asakura Takeshi and others began to look real and illusory, as if they were a little unreal.

Until the seventh stop on a certain floor, the elevator door opened again.

This time, it was no longer the previous apartment building, but a dark corridor filled with lead-gray mist.

There seems to be some obscure aura, dormant in every corner of this corridor, waiting for an opportunity.

It seems that this is the place where the young autumn had followed Kazuto and his wife, which is the different time and space where the "non-existent floor" is located.

The process of getting in was smoother than expected.

"Looks like it's 'dark night' now..."

Bai Shuiqiu first tried to let Fengli sense the situation outside the elevator, and then released his spiritual sense to capture the surrounding movement for a while, and then slowly lifted his foot out of the elevator.

A feeling like passing through the diaphragm quietly arises.

The old monster followed closely behind.

When Bai Shuiqiu, Jiufeng Shion, and Yunu passed through the "air membrane" in turn, and came to the corridor of the apartment building, the surrounding scene became more real. The light gray fog was still there, but it could no longer be blocked. her sight. And those auras hidden in every corner of the surrounding are also beginning to move.

It seems that because he sensed the breath of a living person, things dormant in the apartment building began to appear one after another.

In Bai Shuiqiu's eyes filled with spiritual power, all the scenes became as clear and eye-catching as the day, allowing her to clearly identify these strange shapes coming out of the rooms on both sides——

There are monsters with numerous sarcomas all over their bodies, but the whole body is flat against the wall, like a mass of flesh;

There are monsters whose bodies are twisted into the shape of a snail shell, and even their faces are pulled into a spiral;

There are also "suture monsters" that look like seven or eight bodies stitched together, and the whole body is mixed with colorful colors...

The evil things that appear in this apartment building are quite different in appearance from those in "No Man's City". I think they are different kinds of things, but they are similar in nature, and all of them are carried with care. In the breath of kindness, the "meat wall" closest to Bai Shuiqiu had already "rolled" close to the ground and the wall, as if to swallow them all into his body.

Trouble came sooner than expected.

Bai Shuiqiu originally thought that at least when he first entered here, there should be a safety period of a few minutes.

But in fact, things like "Meat Wall" reacted almost the first time they came.

Under the circumstance that the other party has already made a move, it is obviously impossible for them to quietly sneak in and observe secretly.

but……

"Teacher Ziyuan, Sister Lu, try to keep your movements as small as possible later, don't disturb the things outside the apartment building..."

In time for Jiufeng Ziyuan and Yunu to start, Bai Shuiqiu quickly exhorted a few words.

Compared with the evil things that can be seen directly in front of them, it is obviously the unknown hidden in the dark night outside, which is even more disturbing.

"learn."

Chapter 827 Monsters in the Wasteland

The voice did not fall.

Jiufeng Shion's figure flickered quietly, and in an instant, he appeared in front of the "meat wall" more than ten meters away.

Then he pointed like a knife and cut to the opposite monster.

Along with this action, a clump of strange fire was released at a minimum, wrapping the arms and palms of the old monster, like an unparalleled and incomparable knife, igniting it while cutting the meat wall.

By the time the hand knife was detached from the bottom of the meat wall, the latter had already been burned into a cloud of fly ash, rising into the surrounding air.

A scorching barbecue smell also permeated the air.

It is said to be "barbecue", but the meat quality of "meat wall" is obviously not very good, so there is an indescribable strangeness when the smell pours into the nose.

it smells bad...

At the same time, the rain girl also waved her hand to release a mass of green water, wrapped around Bai Shuiqiu to isolate the outside odor, and at the same time gently lifted the umbrella, forming more water flow along the The floor of the corridor was pushed up layer by layer, and turbulent water waves gradually churned out, escorting Bai Shui Qiu around.

Evil creatures such as "meat wall" are quite fierce, otherwise they would not dare to summon up the courage to attack after sensing the aura of Bai Shuiqiu and others—

Even if they didn't take the initiative to release them in order to avoid the grass and the snake, the aura of the Rain Girl and the old monster could still be said to be very powerful, and the less timid monsters might have the first reaction to look out for the wind and flee.

However, in the face of absolutely crushing strength, no matter how fierce it is, it is meaningless.

Not even enough to get the old monster and the Rain Girl serious.

"I'll go to the other floors first, be careful."

Jiufeng Ziyuan let out a fluttering sentence, and hurried to the opposite stairway.

When it comes to maneuvering and dodging in a small space, the old monster is the strongest among the shikigami in Tianmu Shrine. The obstacles encountered along the way are basically one knife and one knife, and they are burned in the first time. After the ashes were removed, even the operation of cleaning up the corpse was omitted.

On the other hand, Bai Shuiqiu and Rain Girl slowly moved their steps and walked deeper into the corridor.

In this process.

The red mist broke away from Bai Shuiqiu and condensed into the appearance of a soldier.

A few of them were guarding beside the elevator, and the others followed Bai Shuiqiu and Yu Nu slowly forward. At the same time, some of their bodies turned into mist and diffused around, forming a red mist field.

After all, this elevator room is the passageway for them to enter and exit, and it is also the key link between the world and the outside world in the "non-existent floor". If it is destroyed by the monsters in the apartment building, although Bai Shuiqiu can still live in Open the door to go back elsewhere, but it may bring some unnecessary troubles to the present world.

After the "Maoyou Incident", Bai Shuiqiu has become much more cautious about this kind of thing.

She didn't want the evil things in this apartment to escape and cause chaos in Tokyo.

In that case, before the Lantern Mountain Incident broke out, there might be trouble finding Kazuto's family of three.

With Rain Girl and Hong Wu around, Bai Shuiqiu naturally didn't need to take any more shots.

So she focused on the red mist.

After this period of digestion, the absorption capacity of the red mist gradually recovered, and he began to be able to swallow the corpses of these messed up evil things again.

However, compared to the last time he entered the "Inner World", he has not fully recovered, and it is estimated that he is about to reach the upper limit of the individual's strength.

Too……

Whether it is from what I have seen with my own eyes or purely theoretical analysis, it is impossible for any kind of monster or evil thing to become infinitely stronger, and Red Mist is no exception.

If it can really be swallowed like a bottomless pit, then this guy is the strongest of all evils.

Therefore, just like human beings have limits, at this stage, the red mist has also faintly touched the upper limit of the demon power of this evil, and no matter how much it swallows, it is only a small quantitative change, far from a qualitative change. , If you want to break through again, unless there is a special opportunity, it will be useless even after a few hundred years.

And it is not realistic to expect Hongwu to grow to the point where he can single-handedly take on the black mud before the battle of Lantern Mountain.

Bai Shuiqiu had such a fantasy...

But now, the illusion is shattered.

Bai Shuiqiu also restrained his thoughts and focused his attention on observing the situation around him. Taking advantage of the empty room on the right, he walked a few steps under the lingering red mist and came to the window on the other side of the room. , looked away for a moment in a direction outside the apartment building.

As expected, outside the window of this apartment building is not the uninhabited city full of various buildings.

There are no high and low abstract buildings.

Yes, it's just a wasteland that can't be seen at a glance.

Looking out from the window where Bai Shuiqiu is now, there is not even a single tree in a radius of dozens of miles, only some black-gray air currents floating in the air, exuding an ominous atmosphere.

In addition, in the direction of due north——the compass in the "middle world" is useless, so Shiraishi can only judge the north-south direction of Shiraishi Apartment in the present world——

When looking far into the distance, Bai Shuiqiu saw some vague figures of different sizes wandering in the surrounding wasteland.

The yin around them was so intense that it was almost substantive.

Because of the "Spiritual Eye-Opening Command Spell", Bai Shuiqiu could vaguely see the appearance of those larger monsters.

Some of them look like the Hundred Ghosts Night Walk scrolls, or the individuals appearing in some horror movies;

——Those things were once considered by humans, including practitioners, to be animals imagined by the people for a long time, even in the Heian era when the Hundred Demons Night Walk really broke out, but now it seems, The root of these "imaginations" may be influenced by the breath of the "inner world", or from the terrifying memories engraved in the depths of human genes;

Some are distorted and bizarre to the extreme, and there is absolutely no object that can be compared in reality...

This scene is slightly similar to the scene in the white fog area.

But looking at it this way, there is no fear.

Anyway, no matter how strong it is, it is on the level of the "Yamagata Monster". And existences like that, even in the "inner world", should be very rare, and it is impossible to encounter them wherever you go.

but……

Bai Shuiqiu did not see the boundless black storm from here, or the outline of the modern city standing in the shadow of the night.

It's the same thing if you change the window and angle, or even stand on the rooftop of an apartment building and look out.

The only obvious landmark is an inverted cone in the northwest. It looks like a steep cliff standing far away, but the color is almost integrated with the surrounding night. Bai Shuiqiu has identified several. to confirm its existence.

"If this place is connected to the "unmanned city", then no matter where you are, you should be able to see that storm that overlaps the entire horizon..."

"So, the matter should be just like the rain **** and the cat said, this is a "no-man city" isolated from each other, only through some special connection points, which is similar to the rain **** The passages in the cave where I lived before are connected to other areas...

Even the existence of the entire "inner world" is fragmented, not a complete plane like reality..."

Bai Shuiqiu analyzed the information that could be determined so far.

in addition……

What the Rain God said before, "the day is relatively safe, but the night contains danger" has also been fulfilled.

The "daytime" when the young Qiu entered with his husband and his wife, the whole process was almost without danger, but the "night" that Bai Shuiqiu entered now is full of dangers, as soon as he entered, he encountered a large number of evil creatures attacked and killed. .

Therefore, the time rules of this "inner world" may also be different from "unmanned cities".

But this is not something that can be figured out in a short period of time. If you really want to know, at least you need to make time to come over a few more times.

But in general, judging from the current situation, the "Gate of Yellow Springs" in Shiraishi Apartment has not been loosened. Young Autumn and the Heren couple of that year were able to enter it because of their special constitution and living in This white stone apartment in a special location plays the role of a chemical reaction;

As for other practitioners, like the people from the Tokyo Countermeasures Team, even if they tried their best to get in, they couldn't do it.

So it is relatively safe here.

As long as the movement is small and the door is closed when leaving, it is not a big problem in theory.

...

Next, Bai Shuiqiu returned to the corridor, took Jiufeng Ziyuan and Yunu, and thoroughly cleaned up the evil in the building.

Up and down six floors, thirty or forty rooms, plus the roof on the roof.

A total of 20 or 30 evil objects were found, with an average of one evil object in less than two rooms.

This density is quite astonishing, much higher than the average Yin domain.

Moreover, the average strength of these evil creatures is not low, at least they are at the same level as ghost boys, and quite a few of them can reach the level of water tigers, bloated humanoids, and the first version of red fog, and they even understand to a certain extent. Cooperate with each other to hunt and kill the enemy.

Ordinary practitioners come in rashly, and in the absence of precautions, most of them will be instantly blocked.

——In fact, it is useless to take precautions. Unless it is a leader of the younger generation like Asakura Asami or Iwazong Tiger Taro, or a big family with many trump cards like Tsuchimikado, it is possible to avoid casualties. Take the impact of these evil things.

Therefore, most of the two members of the Tokyo Countermeasures Team who came in at first have been swallowed by these things.

But for Bai Shuiqiu and his party, any one of Rain Girl, Hong Wu, and the old monster can solve them all.

If it wasn't for the purpose of deliberately suppressing the movement in the building, this battle could have ended faster.

When the floor was almost cleaned up, Bai Shuiqiu handed over the remaining evil objects to Jiufeng Ziyuan to probe his memory.

It may be because the IQs of the evil creatures entrenched in this apartment building are generally low, and the information that can be detected from them is limited to—

The wasteland outside also has the distinction between day and night;

When a certain time comes, white fog will be generated from all over the air, covering all areas except the apartment building;

When the day comes, these evil things will be suppressed by the mysterious force and shrink back into the surrounding walls, furniture and other spaces...

"It seems that these evil things inside and outside the apartment building are also divided into territories."

The things inside will not go out easily, try to explore the mysteries in the depths of the wasteland;
