Traveler, High School Student, Homeless

Feng Zi has completely shrunk to Jiang Ming's side.

"To be honest, I also think it's scary. Anyway, hold on to me, we have to get out of here now."

Taking out the storm controller bench again, Jiang Ming grabbed the wind with one hand and waved the bench with the other hand, ready to take off and escape again.

But before that, all the people in the square rushed forward at the same time. These people leaped high with dull expressions, their arms, legs and feet burst into blood with the sound of tearing, and a membrane like a hang glider grew out. , flew directly towards the position where the two of them were.

"Can it still evolve on the spot?"

The unexpected change made Jiang Ming quite shocked, but it was just that this change did not make him flustered, let go of the hand holding Feng Zi, Jiang Ming took out the chaotic transformation pan, the flame and the storm combined in the next second, Swept out with even greater momentum.

"Eat me with a fire storm!"

The gust of wind whipped up raging fire, and all the incoming enemies were swept away.

The scattered flames landed in the woods of the park, and quickly ignited a violent fire. Under the neon lights, Jiang Ming had already put the pan back into the ring, and swung the bench with the wind and flew into the air.

Find a way to go back to the place where you live first, the situation with Kamijou and Virgil must be confirmed first.

whoosh-

The air was pierced by something at this moment.

In mid-air, Jiang Ming instinctively turned his head to avoid it. The next moment, he felt a burst of moisture on the side of his face. When he reached out to touch it, he found that half of his face was cut open and blood was flowing all over his face.

It was a very ordinary bird, maybe a sparrow or a turtledove or something.

Rush towards Jiang Ming at an impossible speed under normal circumstances, scratching his side face, no, considering the qualitative change in physical fitness caused by Feng Lingjing, it is impossible for an ordinary bird beak to scratch him.That is to say, this bird has actually become something very common sense fundamentally.

Then, Jiang Ming saw the dark things taking off in the night sky.

The entire city, together with all the birds within hundreds of kilometers around, took off together at this moment and gathered together in a daze.

Countless flocks of birds in mid-air gathered into a huge human face, and slowly turned towards Jiang Ming's direction. Then, that human face slowly smiled at Jiang Ming, tearing from the corner of the mouth to the back of the head. , a brilliant smile that split the entire head in two.

"...Is it so awesome?"

Amidst the sound of complaints, countless flocks of birds have poured down towards Jiang Ming like a flood.

Is my second life actually over like this?

You don't even need to think about it. It is impossible for your magic weapon and realm to deal with this amount of enemies. Even if you are lucky enough to withstand a wave, you will inevitably end up being completely torn apart.

However, at least the little girl could be sent out safely.

"Then come again and enjoy the storm!"

The gust of wind blew up again, and this time, Jiang Ming grabbed Fuko and was about to throw it directly in the direction of Kamijou's house, and finally used a storm to support Fuko so that she could land safely.

But at that time, he would definitely be overwhelmed by the flock of birds, right?

"Courage is commendable, but not necessary."

The familiar cold snort suddenly sounded at this moment.

Then, an arrow glowing red flew past Jiang Ming's side, facing the flock of crazy birds.

The violent light and heat set off a terrifying air wave in the next second.

The exploding fireball engulfed most of the birds in the loud explosion. In the mushroom cloud that soared into the sky, a white-haired figure with a bow and arrow in red jumped in front of Jiang Ming, grabbed him and Feng Zi and landed not far away. roof of a building.Looking up, Jiang Ming realized that the other party was Wu Ming, the owner of the restaurant he worked for.

"It's really embarrassing, Jiang Ming."

Wuming, who had completely changed into another outfit, laughed.

"Although I felt that you are not an ordinary person before, but you can be so strong. Huh, thank you all in all. I really can't bear that moment just now."

Supporting Fengzi to stand up from the ground, Jiang Ming raised his head and looked at the flock of birds swept by the flames.

"No, it really doesn't work like this."

Jiang Ming murmured.

"What doesn't work?"

Wuming asked casually, but immediately after that he also noticed some abnormalities.

"These things are really immortal..."

In Jiang Ming's line of sight, the flock of birds in the sky is rapidly being reborn from a fragmented charred state, and has also immediately evolved a certain ability to resist flames and explosions.

Even Asuka, which has been wiped out, can be directly reborn out of thin air, and immediately become stronger than before.

"What are these things?"

Wuming, who realized something was wrong, showed a solemn expression.

"No matter what it is, we can't deal with it now. Wu Ming, do you know how many people nearby who have not been affected? Now it seems that not everyone has turned into this ghost, we have to deal with it now Only those who maintain normality can be called together."

Realizing that it might become extremely dangerous in the future, Jiang Ming retreated away from the flock of birds that had gathered again, and said to Wu Ming who was following him.

"I'm afraid not, I also saw some normal people along the way, but those, those things I don't know what they are, they can't be distinguished in the crowd. I saw some of those things transform other people During the process, the transformed person can still greet me with a smile."

Wu Ming's face was also ugly, and he answered Jiang Ming very seriously.

Can seamlessly switch between normal and abnormal states, and can't detect the difference from ordinary humans at all. Will it show symptoms only after actively changing its own state?

What the hell is this...

Could it be that, in fact, there are many people around us who have become this kind of thing, but they have been pretending to continue to live with us, until today they showed their fangs and turned into this ghost thing, right?

Jiang Ming felt that the hairs all over his body were about to stand on end.

"Tsk, in short, we have to gather the crowd. As for the identification, it doesn't matter. Let's take the crowd to the mountain where the ceremony is held. There is a very strong person in the temple on that mountain. Maybe he can do something!"

There is no time to think about a better solution, although I don't know if the demon monk is willing to help in this extreme situation, now I can only gamble.

"careful!"

An unnamed voice suddenly sounded.

At some point, one after another, people with dull eyes and smiling faces followed at a speed not inferior to the two running on the roof.

The bow and arrow disappeared, and the black and white double knives emerged from Wuming's hands, cutting down the enemies attacking left and right at an extremely fast speed.But more enemies rushed up immediately, and in less than a few seconds, things like scales grew on the skin of these people, and there was a sound of metal collision when Wuming's knife cut it.

"The speed of evolution is so—"

A figure had already rushed in front of the two of them at this moment.

"It's so embarrassing."

Then, there was the blue-purple light that bloomed.

Virgil, who did not know when to appear, slowly put the black broken knife into the scabbard.

The people who jumped up from around were cut and torn in the next second, turning into pieces of meat and falling to the ground.

Chapter 38: Survivors and the Direction of Action

"Virgil, you are so slow to come..."

Seeing this familiar figure, Jiang Ming was slightly relieved.

If there is anyone among the people around who can make Jiang Ming feel at ease, it is probably this man.Although he has a weird personality and is very irritable, Virgil, who is really a top player, is very reassuring as long as he is on the frontal battlefield.

"You made yourself so embarrassed again, maybe you are very suitable to be a clown?"

Glancing at the rapidly growing and recovering flesh and blood around him, Virgil said to Jiang Ming with a slightly mocking tone.

"Ha, it doesn't matter, anyway, let's find a way to retreat from here."

With a long sigh, Jiang Ming wanted to leave.

"Retreat? In front of this garbage?"

Virgil sneered.

"These things are immortal. You see, they have begun to recover. Your current strength has not fully recovered. Although these things are weak, they will be difficult to deal with if you keep resurrecting them. Don't waste them on these things. There should be more worthwhile Your opponent who draws the sword is right."

Jiang Ming did not choose to respond positively to Virgil. After getting along with him for a long time, Jiang Ming, who had already figured out part of the logic of this man's thinking, tried to persuade him seriously.

"Hmph, too, there's no reason for my knife to be bloodied by such rubbish."

Shaking his head in disappointment, Virgil didn't try to draw the knife again.

Sure enough, you have to smooth the hair to convince this guy.

The broken knife that Virgil swung carried some kind of extremely strange erosive power, so the recovery speed of the flesh and blood was much slower, and several people left quickly and walked on the street.

From time to time, some screams, or gunshots and explosions could be heard around. It was only a few 10 minutes. Everything changed from order to chaos, and cruelty was staged in all directions.People who were normal one second turned into brutal killers the next moment, and even the father suddenly tore off the mother's head, and the daughter dug out the grandmother's intestines, and the bloody smell began to spread to the surroundings.

"Everyone, this way!"

After a while, under the leadership of Wu Ming, Jiang Ming and his party gathered together with the survivors gathered by Shiro Emiya. These people who have not changed, or at least have not changed now, gather under the protection of Shiro Emiya Hiding in a hidden alley.

Among the crowd, Jiang Ming saw Kamijou and his wife, Index, Furukawa and his wife, Mr. Fujimoto and Fuko's older sister, and other familiar people in the neighborhood. The son was put down by Jiang Ming and brought back to his sister.

"The surrounding situation is very bad. Although I don't know why basically no one in the three nearby blocks has become 'that kind of thing', but he, they have a lot of offense."

Holding the same double swords as Wuming, Emiya Shirou still couldn't change his mentality, and it was difficult to swing the swords when facing those familiar people who were originally customers or friends.

"These things are no longer human, and they seem to be able to evolve continuously with the attacks they receive. Now is not the time to show affection. Have you contacted Saber and the others?"

Wuming came up and asked directly.

"I contacted Lily, but I'm afraid there will be no reinforcements there for the time being. A similar situation has also occurred on the English side, and I heard from the contact that it seems that this kind of thing is happening all over the world, and... for some reason, all the other The communication from the planet has failed, it seems that something has blocked our planet."

Emiya Shirou clenched his fists and answered in a low voice.

"Tsk... Is it the group of people who control the containment center? In other words, the situation here has already been predicted, and they also chose to block the entire planet. All of us have been abandoned."

Wuming quickly realized the key.

"Now is not the time to think about these things. We have to find a way to bring the survivors to a safer place. Virgil, can you please protect this group of people to the temple over there?"

Jiang Ming rubbed his head, calmed himself down, and said to the silent man beside him.

"I have no obligation to protect these people. My agreement with you is only to protect Kamijou's family, and... haven't you noticed? Kamijou Touma, he's not here."

Virgil glanced at Jiang Ming.

ha?

Subconsciously stunned, Jiang Ming then looked around, and in the sight of Kamijou and his wife, he understood that Kamijou Touma was really not here.

"Fuck, where did he go now?"
