Looking Forward to Another World

Tokyo, Shinjuku.

This is a special administrative district like Shibuya. It is also a relatively prosperous business district and one of the urban cores of Tokyo.

It is located in the west-central area of ​​Tokyo. It has complete commercial and entertainment facilities, a concentration of colleges and universities, and many large corporate headquarters. Shinjuku Station in the area is one of the most important transportation hubs on the west side of Tokyo. It can be imagined that You know how prosperous it is.

But today, this place has also turned into a deserted land of death, and everything looks very desolate.

“Shasha… Shashasha…”

In the electronics store on the street, the TV set flashed with snowflakes and rustled, bringing a sense of unnatural horror to this desolate area.

"Uh-huh!"

At a certain moment, a young man appeared here like a flash, landed next to the electrical appliance store, and entered this desolate area.

The boy was wearing autumn going-out clothes, an ordinary shirt and top paired with black trousers, plus a jacket. The whole body was black, which made the atmosphere a bit dark, but also had an indescribable coldness.

Although he was dressed in ordinary clothes and there was no sense of presence on the young man's body, if someone noticed him, they would not be able to help but pay attention to him and be attracted by the wonderful atmosphere around him.

The old magic high school uniform is no longer worn on the boy. The boy once again used magic to create clothes with amazing toughness. No one would have thought that this seemingly ordinary clothes could actually use electricity. Even if I saw it, I couldn't find any cracks.

"jingle……"

Soon, a palm-sized goblin appeared out of thin air from the surroundings and flew to the boy's side.

The young man raised his hand, and the little elf flew over happily and sat on his palm.

But the goblin's undisguised whereabouts also attracted many uninvited guests.

"Hoo..."

"Hoo..."

Amidst waves of suppressed roars, twisted curse spirits staggered over from the other side of the street.

Some of them are still chewing in their mouths, with a hand or a leg hanging from the corner of their mouths, looking undoubtedly curious and bloody.

However, the young man turned a blind eye to their arrival. He tapped the little fairy sitting on his palm and closed his eyes as if communicating spiritually with the other party.

The eyes of the curse spirits suddenly flashed with fierce light, and they silently approached the young man.

"Isn't it here too?"

The young man seemed to have noticed nothing and muttered.

"Then keep looking, you have to give it a try, right?"

With that said, the boy raised his hand and released the little goblin.

The little goblin lingered around the boy's head for a while, kissed the boy's cheek, and then flew towards the sky.

"Ho!"

At this moment, the curse spirits moved, like a group of lions surrounding their prey, and they all pounced on the young man.

but--

"Pfft!"

One of the cursed spirits had just stood up and jumped, preparing to pounce on the boy, when its body was hit by an invisible slash and cut in half on the spot.

"Puff!" "Puff!" "Puff!"...

Invisible slashes raged like an invisible storm, causing all the cursed spirits that rushed towards the boy to be torn into pieces.

However, in the blink of an eye, all the curse spirits, numbering around ten, were killed. One by one, they turned into pieces of flesh and fell into a pool of blood. After a while, they gradually disappeared, leaving nothing behind.

"call--"

A gust of wind blew from afar, blowing past the boy's side, causing his hair and coat to ripple.

"...Although I'm a little unhappy, I have to admit that that guy's technique is pretty easy to use."

The young man standing alone on the street opened his eyes and sighed alone as if nothing had happened.

After a while, the young man lifted his legs and stepped forward.

In the electrical appliance store next to him, the snowflakes on the TV finally disappeared, and a news screen appeared.

"Since the mysterious disaster occurred in Shibuya, unknown bloody incidents have occurred one after another in various urban areas of Tokyo, causing extremely serious harm to residents everywhere."

“Right now, only the villages and towns of Okutama Town, Ome City, Akiruno City, Hachioji City, part of Machida City, and various islands in Tokyo can be clearly confirmed to be safe. The rest of the urban area has been completely occupied, and almost all of the 23 wards have been destroyed. There was massive bloodshed."

"The safety of all acting Prime Ministers, including the Chief Cabinet Secretary, is also unknown, resulting in a political vacuum and widespread social chaos in Tokyo."

“Currently, our country has formulated an evacuation plan for more than 5 million people in the metropolitan area, requisitioning hotels, campsites and even abandoned villages in various urban areas around Tokyo as temporary refuge areas, and ensuring minimum public infrastructure. "

"Tokyo has been classified as a no-entry area, and the functions of the Prime Minister's official residence have also been moved to Osaka. This will cause the Japanese yen exchange rate to plummet, and there is also the possibility of military intervention by other countries..."

Such reports came to his ears, but Li Ge did not stop and continued to move forward.

After all, he had already foreseen this.

After the Shibuya Incident, countless cursed spirits poured into the entire city of Tokyo, causing numerous brutal and bloody massacres.

The cursed spirits that appeared in Shibuya at that time, as well as the cursed spirits that subsequently poured in and appeared later, caused a lot of chaos during this period, and the disasters continued to expand and spread.

After leaving Shibuya, Li Ge had a contact with Nanami Kento, who told him that the number of cursed spirits appearing in Tokyo was conservatively estimated to be 10 million.

Such a frightening number is probably not just the cursed spirits that appeared in the Shibuya Incident, but also more problems that led to the sudden increase in cursed spirits.

This problem may be the work of Xia Youjie who retreated from Shibuya, or it may be that the death of special curse spirits such as Zhenmao caused the group of curse spirits controlled by them to lose control. It is more likely to be a panic, bloody, and brutal incident. The continuous expansion of the curse has greatly increased the negative emotions among the people across the country, so much so that the number of overflowing curse spirits has increased dramatically, indirectly prompting the generation of a large number of curse spirits.

As a result, Tokyo was completely reduced to the same magical realm as Shibuya.

In order to cope with this disaster, the domestic government and the upper echelons of the magic circle have taken corresponding measures.

When the government had no choice but to evacuate more than 5 million people in Tokyo, it classified Tokyo as a no-entry area and even moved the Prime Minister's official residence.

The upper echelons of the magic world decided to control the disaster within Tokyo. In cooperation with the government's measures, a large barrier invisible to ordinary people was raised on the border of Tokyo, completely separating the two worlds inside and outside Tokyo.

This is a measure of last resort.

In order to prevent the disaster from expanding, and to prevent tens of millions of cursed spirits from escaping outside and causing a nationwide crisis, the curse community had no choice but to temporarily abandon Tokyo.

Therefore, in today's Tokyo, no matter how prosperous the urban area was in the past, it has become a deserted city like Shibuya and Shinjuku. Except for curse spirits, conjurers, curse masters and people from local official forces, only a few people are too late to do so. The evacuated people were forced to live in such a magical environment.

This situation has been going on for some time.

Now, it is almost the end of November.

For nearly a month, Li Ge had been wandering like this in Tokyo, which had turned into a demonic land.

Sometimes he exorcises the cursed spirits he sees...

Sometimes he saves citizens who are unfortunate enough to stay here...

Occasionally, we will encounter people sent by the Director of Spells and major families of spellcasters...

Even, from time to time, you will encounter a curse master who comes out to act recklessly.

In the past month, Li Ge spent time on the four points of rescuing people, killing people, finding people, and exorcising cursed spirits.

Unfortunately, he still couldn't find Xia Youjie.

"Dozens of intelligence-based magics have been used, and monsters similar to goblins have been summoned batch after batch. As a result, we still haven't found them..."

Li Ge frowned thoughtfully while walking on the street.

"The other party must have a special concealment method. Perhaps it is cast by the curse spirit controlled by it, or it may be cast by the person himself."

Being able to continue to escape from Gojo Satoru's pursuit for a month has proven that Xia Youjie has many methods that are beyond the reach of ordinary magicians.

Of course, magic and spells are two different systems, which may also be the reason why Li Ge failed to find each other.

If the principles of power are different, they may not be suitable for each other.

"You still have to use your eyes to find it."

Li Ge used the usual [God's Eye] magic to form a magic eye above his head and fly into the air.

The magic eyes flew towards the interior of buildings, underground and other hidden places, easily penetrating walls and the ground, and instead of Lige's eyes, they could see the internal conditions.

At first, Li Ge was worried about whether he could see the cursed spirit with the [God's Eye].

The curse spirit cannot be caught by the naked eye. Ordinary people without the power of curse cannot see the curse spirit at all. However, the [God's Eye] is formed by magic and does not contain curse power, so it is not necessarily possible to observe the curse spirit. .

Later, Li Ge realized that he had thought too much.

You know, when he first came to this world, he had not yet learned to refine the power of magic.

To the magicians in this world, he was just an ordinary person at that time.

But he was able to see the cursed spirit, sense the existence of the cursed power, and even use the special attack ability of his skills to kill the cursed spirit.

All this is because Li Ge is not an ordinary person.

He has a special spiritual constitution. Even if he has no magic power, he can still detect the existence of the magic spirit and the existence of the magic power.

Although the [Eye of God] does not carry magical power, the magical power and the magical power are both derived from Lige's mental power.

Therefore, Li Ge can still use magic to exorcise the cursed spirit, even if he has no special attack ability.

In the same way, although the [God's Eye], one of the intelligence magics, does not carry curse power, it is formed by magic power. It has the same origin as the curse power and originates from Lige's mental power. Therefore, it can observe the curse power. The existence of spiritual and magical powers can even detect special powers such as barriers.

Thanks to this, after using various magics, Li Ge found that in addition to summoning monsters to conduct carpet searches, using [God's Eye] to search was the most effective detection method.

“It just takes a lot of time and effort.”

Li Ge almost searched all over Tokyo, but still couldn't find any clues. This shows that the efficiency is indeed low.

In the process of searching for Xia Youjie, Li Ge did not find Xia Youjie, his biggest target. Instead, he found many strongholds of curse masters and some bases of corrupt curse masters.

Li Ge didn't want to mention the various dirty, dirty, and dark deeds that happened here, and there was no need to mention them.

Anyway, he did not miss any one, killing all the curse master forces and the curse master forces, uprooting the opponent's base camp, which caused quite a stir.

Under such circumstances, Li Ge's reputation in the magic world has become not very good now. He is not only regarded as a wanted criminal, but also as a sign of a curse master.

Furthermore, in the world of magic, the reputations of Gojo Satoru, Kozuki Hisohito and others are also very bad.

If this happened in modern society and was posted online, people like them would probably be criticized verbally and written by thousands of keyboard warriors.

"Pfft!"

After releasing an invisible slash again to kill a cursed spirit wandering on the roadside, Li Ge walked towards a hidden location.

He turned into an alley and came to a rusty iron door.

This iron door looks ordinary, and only a conjurer or curse master would notice that a hidden barrier has been placed on it.

Li Ge reached out his finger with familiarity, tapped on the door handle, and channeled some magic power.

"Click."

The barrier on the door sensed the power of the spell and opened immediately.

Li Ge walked into it and walked down a staircase.

Not long after, Li Ge arrived at a narrow basement that looked like an office.

"welcome."

There was only one desk in the deepest part of the basement. There was a short, bald old man sitting inside. The wall next to the old man was covered with books that looked like information pads. When he saw Li Ge walking in, he immediately narrowed his eyes and revealed a mouthful. ... Gums with few teeth left.

"I want to find out all the information about the abnormal events that happened in Tokyo in the past three days, as well as information about Xia Youjie's movements."

Li Ge threw out a wad of banknotes expressionlessly and made this request.

This is a place he discovered after leaving Shibuya. It is said that similar places exist in various cities across the country, where intelligence business is conducted.

The operator does not seem to be a magician or a curse master, but he does business with both parties. Sometimes he asks for cash, and sometimes he asks for things like cursed objects and curses. It is said that he is very famous in the industry.

The Director of Spells once wanted to take this force as its own and bring this extraordinary intelligence capability under its control, but the operator behind it seemed to have established a cooperative relationship with one of the three Yus, and also with the other two. The relationship was very close, but eventually it came to nothing.

This information agency is still operating even now that Tokyo has turned into a demonic state.

No, rather, it is precisely because of this situation that its business is booming.

"This is all the information that happened in Tokyo in the past three days."

The old man accepted the wad of banknotes without counting them and handed over a piece of information.

Li Ge was not surprised and started browsing.

After this glance, Li Ge quickly raised his eyebrows.

"Tokyo Conjuring High School was attacked again?"

This is the most important event that happened in these three days.
