Chapter 7 Supernatural Disaster Countermeasure Room(1/2)
After dealing with this wave of evil spirits, Lao Huo took everyone to the armored vehicle. Because Qiu Wei had experience in driving an armored vehicle, this task was handed over to him, while Lao Huo and others sat in the car to prevent the evil spirit from raiding.
"Where are we going to drive?"
Qiu Wei operated the armored vehicle and ran away the car blocking the road, then asked Lao Huo.
"Well... just follow this road."
Lao Huo thought about it and pointed a direction to Qiu Wei.
"I originally found these troops, but I thought I could get records of where the evil spirits appeared, but I didn't find anything."
"Then don't we know where to go?"
When Lang Shuai heard Lao Huo say this, he asked quickly.
"It's not that. The actions of the evil spirits are regular. Our target is a high-level evil spirit of type A. Her appearance will lead to many evil spirits. These evil spirits will definitely cause great damage. Then we can always find them along the traces of destruction. And even if we can't find the target, we might meet the protagonists in the original work."
Lao Huo didn't seem to be worried about not being able to find the target.
"So that's it. By the way, I just remembered a question."
After Lao Huo explained, Lang Shuai asked again.
"I remember that those evil spirits seem to be seen by people with spiritual power, right? Why can we see them too?"
"I thought it was something. The system can't let a group of people who can't even see ghosts come to catch ghosts. This means that all of you have more or less certain spiritual power."
Lao Huo shrugged.
"Really? I also seem to feel that a force is emerging."
"No, that's your illusion. You just have a little more spiritual awareness than ordinary people. Generally speaking, a person can achieve this level after contacting the spirit for a long time."
"Oh!"
After being hit by Lao Huo inhumanely, Lang Shuai was in a bad mood.
After that, they fell silent and sat quietly in the car to recover the energy they had consumed in the previous battle.
Siji looked out from the car window to the street outside. There was no one nearby because of the appearance of evil spirits. It is hard to imagine that this was once a city street with endless pedestrians.
Because I lost my memory, I don’t know if I used to be like ordinary citizens in this city, I would stroll in a corner of the street on weekdays. So what would it feel like when I see this dilapidated scene in front of me?
The flashing street lights are still illuminating the land, but there is still an illusion of shadows being hidden in it. This is a touch that acts directly on the soul. As the four seasons extend their consciousness outwards, it seems that he hears a cry of sorrow in his ears. The sad sound comes from the fallen corpse, from the destroyed buildings, and from the entire earth itself.
So the four seasons knew that the earth was weeping for its disaster.
He couldn't help but want to cover his ears, but the sound was still coming. He felt that somewhere he had heard this sound, which contained unwillingness and resentment, powerlessness and sorrow, and many wails almost drown his brain.
"Four Seasons! Wake up!"
Qiu Hua's voice made Siji suddenly open his eyes. At this time, he was sweating and pale, and his condition was worse than when he left the team before.
"Is something going on?"
Qiuhua used a handkerchief to wipe the sweat of Siji. She was so keen that she could feel that Siji was in a bad state.
“…It’s okay.”
Siji shook his head. It seemed that his special ability had lost control just now. When he recalled that feeling, even Siji, who lacked emotion, was trembling. I really don’t know what the consequences would be if he had not been woken up by Qiu Hua. It can be said that Qiu Hua saved him again.
"Thank you."
"Don't care."
Qiu Hua smiled and touched Siji's head. For some reason, this action alone made Siji feel at ease.
"So envious."
Lang Shuai, who was standing beside him, interrupted with a long smile.
"Hey, don't kill yourself."
Lao Huo on the other side also said in his special way of caring.
Obviously, the movements of the four seasons made them notice.
After this little episode, nothing happened. The car went all the way. They had already come from Kitanikebukuro to the near Shinjuku District. The situation here seemed much better. The road was no longer empty, but due to the martial law everywhere on the road, a large number of vehicles were stagnant here, and the continuous sound of whistles were also ringing.
However, for them who saw the dilapidated scenes along the way, the originally noisy noise was enough to make people feel excited. But what they need now is not this peace of mind.
"Strange, are you going in the wrong direction?"
Lao Huo looked around and saw no evil spirits here.
"Try it there, there's a bad feeling."
Four Seasons pointed to the side.
"good."
Since he didn't know where to go, Lao Huo agreed readily.
As soon as Qiu Wei turned the steering wheel, the car turned around, regardless of whether there were cars around, or whether there were motor vehicle lanes or pedestrian lanes on the ground, he drove directly over.
This time the scene changed without moving forward for a long time.
"There are more signs of destruction here."
Lang Shuai pointed around.
"It seems that this time is right. Good job, boy."
Old Huo happily patted Siji on the shoulder, making Siji unable to help but show a painful expression.
"What is that?"
Qiu Wei, who was driving, stopped the car by stepping on the brakes under his feet. Not far from the front of the car were rows of light walls composed of golden words.
"It is a barrier set by the Demon Retired Master. No wonder there are no evil spirits nearby. It seems that they have been blocked."
"What should we do?"
"Continue to go, the barrier still shows that there are still people alive, so don't worry about not knowing where to go this time."
The car continued to move forward, and soon they heard a lot of people moving, including shouts from someone, continuous gunfire, and metal collisions. As soon as they heard it, they knew that the battle was in full swing.
"Do we want to go over and help?"
Lang Shuai asked as he looked at the battlefield that appeared in front of him.
"Of course I have to help."
Lao Huo nodded.
"It's just right to make a difference in the protagonists' favorability."
While speaking, the car had already stopped at the edge of the battlefield. Perhaps because it was an army vehicle, no one stopped it.
"Beauty, stay and protect the super power boy."
"OK."
So Lao Huo took Qiu Wei and Lang Shuai into the battlefield.
Most of the people fighting here are from the supernatural disaster countermeasures room. They have spiritual power, which is stronger than ordinary people. Unlike the special tactical team of the Defense Ministry, which is established in the military, the combat mode is also more flexible. Not only those who use guns, but also choose cold weapons. These weapons that lag behind the times have gained stronger destructive power than guns under the support of spiritual power and superman's physical abilities.
The black-shaped evil spirits gathered here are much more than those they encountered before, and it is not an exaggeration to describe them as crowded people. This makes the devil-retreaters who are far fewer than them can only maintain a stalemate even if they have stronger individual strength.
"I remember there are not so many in the animation."
"So this is no longer an animation."
Lao Huo said to Lang Shuai as he moved forward.
"Is it a reinforcement?"
At this time, a man holding two suitcases turned to look at Lao Huo and the others.
"Are you from the Ministry of Defense?"
The men used questions because Lao Huo and his team did not wear observation spirit machines and did not have uniforms from the Ministry of Defense, but he had never seen these people in the countermeasure room he belonged to.
"There is no time to say these words now."
Lao Huo flashed and came to the man's side, and fisted fiercely. The evil spirit who tried to attack the man from behind was punched.
"So fast!"
The man couldn't help but sigh.
"Yingting, is it okay?"
The companion of the man named Sakura Ting also rushed over, a man with a moxi-like dry head and equipped with a metal drill with both hands.
"Ah, it's okay."
Yingting waved her hand and smashed an evil spirit with her suitcase and responded, then looked at Lao Huo again.
"Thank you, are you?"
"We are folk demon-retards."
After seeing that the first step of gaining the other party's trust came into play, Lao Huo said the lines he had thought of in advance.
To be continued...
