Izumaru's travel notes

"Underground? You really know how to find something for me to do."

In the subway track area, Chonggong was walking alone with a flashlight. Although his eyesight did not require the assistance of a flashlight, he still brought one with him. The reason was simple: it was a professional habit.

"Click! Click!"

The ferocious animal's feet stepped on the fully enclosed concrete tunnel, making a crisp sound. Takamiya looked around, looking for the thing that the shadow mage said was underground.

"Not here."

After flying along the subway line for a long, long time, until he saw the terminal, Takamiya took out the map and drew a cross on a line. On the map, there were already several crosses drawn. There were only a few subway lines left to explore.

"Is this guy trying to trick me?"

Looking at the few remaining routes, Chonggong felt like he had been cheated.

But since I’m here, I might as well finish the walk. What if someone is behind me?

The track area was extremely dark at midnight, and even the air was not flowing in the enclosed space. Chonggong just hung in the air at high speed in the posture of a half-beast, while opening all his senses, looking for the abnormally huge fear energy mentioned by the Shadow Mage.

However, until Chonggong explored several other subway lines, apart from seeing the unlucky people in the subway construction process, he didn't see anything that had anything to do with fear.

"Is this guy making fun of me?"

On the first subway in the morning, Takamiya folded his arms across his chest, leaning back on his seat and resting in silence. Even though the surroundings were noisy and crowded, it did not affect his rest.

"Hey, have you heard? There are strange things on the subway these two days." A student in a boys' high school uniform said in a low voice.

"weird stuff?"

"Yes, I heard that someone heard the sound of ghosts crying in the carriage of the last train at night. It is said that this place used to be a relic, and many strange things were dug out."

"Ah? That's it? There are so many of them on SNS. These are all hallucinations of drunkards."

(SNS: social network service, including social software, social networks, social network websites, including but not limited to WeChat, Twitter, and Weibo)

The other party obviously didn't take his companion's words seriously. There are a lot of these strange stories updated on SNS every week. Some people even collect these things and organize them, and open a column on a certain book to regularly update these weird stories. The popularity is not low, with thousands of users browsing every day.

"I used to do it for fun, but the mirage in the sky recently is too scary. And the monster on it is exactly the same as what we saw on TV. Someone even dug up the monster's name, something like... Gesla."

Compared to his companions who were enjoying the scene, the other person was a little worried. After all, such a strange scene was unprecedented. In addition, a group of people on the Internet fanned the flames and watched the excitement, causing many people to unconsciously connect this abnormal phenomenon with the weird story.

There was also the huge riot at Yokohama Port last night. Even though the authorities have ordered a blockade of all news, a large number of videos are still circulating among the public. For a time, people were panicked, fearful, curious and a series of other emotions were constantly released, filling Yokohama with a massive amount of negative emotions overnight.

"Sure enough, this is the purest way."

Shadow Master was very happy when he saw the negative emotions surrounding the whole Yokohama. With a wave of his hand, these free negative emotions gathered in his palm like a dragon sucking water, forming a small bead.

"Congratulations, sir. Congratulations, sir. You have collected such a huge amount of negative emotions in just a few days."

The super Hippolytus on the side complimented it a few times and looked at the bead with some envy.

"Humph, if it weren't for that guy's idea, I wouldn't be able to get such a strong fear. Hey, how is that guy?"

Speaking of this, Super Hippolytus burst into laughter.

"Sir, you don't know that since that guy heard what you said, he went around underground for a long time yesterday, but he didn't find anything."

But Super Hippolytus did not see joy on the Shadow Mage's face. Instead, he saw a hint of...confusion?

"Didn't find it? That's not right. There was indeed a strong fear there before. I confirmed it myself, but I didn't take it away at that time... I didn't find it... Could it be possible that it can grow legs and run away?"

Seeing the Shadow Mage thinking, Super Hippolytus finally realized that his master was not joking.

"Take this and feed it to King Ponton and the others. Do not attack those children of destiny before I give you instructions."

The Shadow Mage disappeared after throwing the bead to Super Hippolytus. The other party caught it with trepidation and looked at the bead with emotion in his eyes.

"Your Excellency actually trusts me so much..."

...

"What? You didn't find it either?"

On the rooftop, Chonggong looked at Shadow Mage in disbelief, "You said the location, but you can't even find it yourself, what's going on?"

The Shadow Mage was also a little confused. He did feel a strong sense of fear here, so how could he not find it?

"You're really not lying to me?"

"What am I doing with my free time?"

Then Chonggong sat on the ground, looking at the bright moon in the sky, and began to wonder. If it was really fear, he should not be unable to feel it.

“Fear, fear…”

The Shadow Mage was also pacing on the spot, wondering what this fear was.

"Forget it, it's not important. Our main target is still those children of destiny."

"It will take time for the Child of Destiny to awaken. Even with the catalyst of Daiko, it won't be quick."

Chonggong took out a bottle of soda from somewhere, unscrewed the cap and took a sip.

And with the help of the breeze, the moonlight broke free from the cover of the dark clouds and shone upon the earth.

"!"

"!"

At the moment when the moonlight shone on the earth, Chonggong and Shadow Master simultaneously locked their eyes on a building with a complete glass curtain wall.

"Why did you show up now?"

The two figures flashed, and the next second they appeared in the subway tunnel, and the atmosphere of fear here became extremely strong.

"Buzz!"

Listening to the subway whistle behind him, Takamiya glanced down and the speeding train stopped instantly. Looking at the fearful atmosphere surging from the ground, he stomped his feet hard, and the concrete structure was instantly shattered. He raised his hand to dig out the fragments, and found an ancient bronze mirror that was emitting a constant fearful atmosphere. There were also ancient words on it.

"This is it."

The Shadow Mage stroked the sealed bronze mirror. The seal on it had been worn away by time, causing fear to overflow.

"Good stuff."

Just as the Shadow Mage was about to open the bronze mirror...

"Whoosh!"

A beam of light hit his hand and shattered the bronze mirror at the same time.

"you!"

The Shadow Mage glared at the future who fired the gun fiercely, but Chonggong was staring at the broken bronze mirror. Because of the scratch just now, a corner of the dusty ancient mirror was wiped off, and in that corner, a demon's head was revealed.
