At this time, the girl behind Li Mo whispered: "Do you really want to kill it?"

"if not?"

Li Mo raised his eyebrows and asked.

"I just feel like it didn't do anything bad..."

Fujiwara Chika said with some lack of confidence.

Although she was indeed seriously harmed by the giant evil spirit and was on the verge of death, she had to admit that she was haunted by the giant evil spirit partly because she did not have a strong enough will. As a result, she was too shaken after seeing those supernatural beings. When the other party asked "Can you see me", she failed to react immediately and pretended not to see it.

In comparison, the owner of this shrine didn't cause her any substantial harm, and even fulfilled her wish to see incredible things - regardless of whether what she saw was a scam or not, just say whether you saw it or not...

"You are too naive. That's because the other party hasn't collected the 'compensation' from you yet."

Li Mo said in a deep voice: "The gift of fate has already been marked with a price... It's just that you were unlucky. Before you could claim your reward, you almost died in an accident."

He looked at the shrine master, who was flaming and writhing on the ground in agony, and continued, "For example... suppose you were clever enough to avoid being haunted by that evil spirit on the way home and returned safely. However, your clairvoyance wouldn't disappear. From now on, those malicious spirits would constantly appear in your field of vision, threatening your life at all times... What would you do?"

Fujiwara Chika was speechless.

The girl followed Li Mo's train of thought and thought for a moment before answering uncertainly.

"Will he become the Prime Minister of Japan?"

"Why did you come up with such an answer?!"

"Because becoming Prime Minister will allow me to establish a department dedicated to fighting evil spirits... Hmm, let's call it the Paranormal Disaster Countermeasures Office~"

"It sounds like a small-time organization that will be single-handedly defeated by the black-haired JK."

Li Mo first casually complained, then continued: "Regardless of whether you can successfully make it to graduation and participate in the election, the mere presence of evil spirits can make people feel uneasy and depressed. If left alone, even the most optimistic person will lose their mind. So in fact, I'm afraid you won't be able to endure for long, and you will regret the wish you made in the first place..."

"So you'll come here again and make a new wish..."

Fujiwara Chika finally understood what Li Mo meant.

"And judging by your expression, you probably don't know there's a saying in this world called 'fulfilling a vow,' right?"

Li Mo continued.

"what is that?"

"To put it simply, when a wish is fulfilled, you need to go to the place where you made the wish to express your gratitude."

Li Mo said, "Besides the initial words of thanks, they often prepare some thank-you gifts... Guess what they'll ask for as a reward before you come back to cancel your wish or make a new one?"

"…Incense money?"

"Guess again."

The girl's expression turned ugly.

Unfortunately, because she was behind Li Mo, Li Mo was unable to appreciate the girl's frightened expression for a moment.

"But what you said is not completely unreasonable..."

Li Mo looked at the fox-shaped spirit being burned in extreme pain by the candle flames and moved closer with interest: "Over there, if you are willing to surrender and become my shikigami or familiar, I can spare your life."

The shrine master's struggles became less intense.

It straightened its body, lay on the ground, and pressed its head against the ground towards Li Mo, as if consciously expressing surrender.

At this moment, a new page popped up on Li Mo's usually silent system.

[Concluding the [Devil Contract Fox]]

[Effect: After this contract is concluded, the keeper can summon the other party to assist in battle at any time]

[Price: Each summon requires sacrificing a part of your body]

Li Mo was silent for a moment, with a forced smile on his face.

His fist was first covered with a layer of [scales], and then ignited a blazing [candle] fire that was a special attack against spirits.

Then Li Mo threw an uppercut at the monster with lightning speed.

"Demon, huh? Sacrifice, huh? Body, huh? If you want to eat it so badly, I'll give you a fist first to taste it!"

The monster was beaten by Li Mo's fist and rolled on the ground, but it didn't dare to escape because Li Mo's spell had already locked on it.

After being beaten for a while, those teeth that originally looked extremely sharp fell to the ground, and the system page in Li Mo's vision was updated again.

[Concluding the [Fox Familiar Contract]]

[Effect: After this contract is concluded, the keeper can summon the other party to assist in battle at any time]

【Price: Spare its life】

Chapter 343: Barrier.

Li Mo touched his thumb, middle finger and ring finger together, raised his index finger and little finger, and made a shadow puppet gesture representing a fox.

"knock."

A huge fox-like figure emerged from the shadows.

Li Mo then raised his hands and made a wish as if he had collected all the dragon balls: "Please make my wish come true!"

The fox was lying on the ground in a strange shape, with what was probably its belly exposed.

This gesture means 'Sorry, can't do that'.

"waste."

Li Mo commented expressionlessly.

The fox curled up into a small ball.

"A roadside, trash fish, a jerk who can't do anything!"

Li Mo continued to speak expressionlessly.

The fox monster humbly melted into a pool of black substance.

"It's clearly a monster, but why does it feel subtly pitiful..."

Fujiwara Chika muttered softly.

A fox-shaped head popped out from a puddle on the ground, and then the top of its head split open to reveal its real mouth, and it made a crisp "quack" sound.

“Is it showing me kindness?”

The girl asked curiously.

"'Eating the pink one on the owner's back will grant you some simple wishes,' that's what it says."

Li Mo translated.

"What kind of revenge is this?!"

"No, you haven't done anything good to it."

While Li Mo was complaining, he roughly understood the situation of the fox monster.

This thing only has its full power when it is in the shrine, and can fulfill certain wishes to a certain extent. However, once it leaves the shrine, it is just an ordinary weirdness, and can only gain power by eating living sacrifices.

At this time, at Li Mo's signal, after the fox monster released all the souls that it had restrained and used as sacrifices in the past, its own power fell to a very low level.

I feel like I don't have any use for this thing in any sense.

Li Mo looked back at the shrine not far away.

The torii gate that had been knocked crooked by the old car and blackened by the flames had now returned to its original appearance. Even the wreckage of the old car had disappeared. At first glance, it seemed as if nothing had happened.

As a strange story, the term "non-existent shrine" is actually problematic in itself.

This shrine actually exists and was built quite anciently. The skull inside, which serves as the deity, dates back hundreds of years.

It’s just that there is something like a barrier outside the shrine to prevent people from breaking in, but people with strong life energy can ignore the barrier and see the existence of the shrine.

This was probably a method that the shrine originally used to screen living sacrifices.

By the way, it seems that one can judge a person's 'strong life energy' by eating a lot without gaining too much weight.

"Crack."

"Ok?"

Li Mo was stunned for a moment.

"What is it saying again?"

Fujiwara Chika asked nervously, fearing that the other party was suggesting how to deal with her again.

"'A terrifying monster is sealed beneath this mountain. My duty is to guard it. Even after all the sacrifices are released, I may not be able to keep it under control.' That's what it said."

Li Mo translated.

"Why can one word lead to such a long paragraph..."

"Don't underestimate our bond!"

"I don't think this is the right thing to say to someone who was beating someone with his flaming fist just half an hour ago."

The girl murmured, "And I think it's scary enough."

Li Mo tried to sense it, but did not feel any magic from the mountain under his feet.

It seems that the creature sealed in the mountain is something similar to the fox monster.

Then there is nothing to be afraid of. Judging from the situation just now, as long as he can confirm the existence of the other party and bring the other party into his cognition, even a hundred fox monsters tied together will not be his match.

What's more, his right eye is gradually getting better. When his true vision recovers to a certain level, those things will be visible in his eyes.

Li Mo kicked the fox monster that continued to melt into a puddle twice (Fujiwara Chika: Do you really have a bond between you?!) and said: "If something really shows up, notify me. If you can't beat it, just run away and quietly follow it until I get there."

"Crack."

"Ah, this time it must be saying 'I know' right!"

Fujiwara Chika said happily.

"'Only her breasts and ass look good on this woman,' it says."

"Why are we suddenly talking about where to eat delicious food?"

In fact, the fox monster was indeed saying something like "yes, sir", but Li Mo inexplicably didn't want to see the girl's smug and arrogant look.

Anyway, the Fox Monster will be his subordinate from now on, so it's only natural for a subordinate to take the blame for his superior...

"Okay, let's reinforce the barrier here first, to prevent anyone from breaking in and becoming this guy's prey."

Li Mo paused for a moment, then patted the girl's thigh behind him and said, "If you don't mind, sit under the tree over there for a while."

"I see. Strengthening the barrier must be quite difficult!"

Fujiwara Chika said excitedly.

"No, it's just that I've been carrying you for too long, and my waist can't take it anymore."

"Don't act like I'm heavy, Chika!"

The girl shed tears.

Having said that, she still sat obediently under the tree, looking at Li Mo not far away.

The shadow formed by the fox monster flowed to his feet, then turned into its original form and lifted Li Mo up high.

The young man looked down from above, the inky night soaking into his outline.

He opened his hands, staring at the shrine with eyes like a deep lake, and stars like broken diamonds floating in his irises.

Then, Li Mo clasped his hands together with a "snap". The insects in the mountain seemed to sense something and stopped chirping all night long, causing the whole mountain to fall into a long silence in an instant.

Immediately afterwards, a strange light rose from the ground, starting in front of Li Mo and spreading to both sides.

The rainbow arc of light enveloped the entire shrine in almost an instant.

【scale】

In fact, Li Mo can now cast a spell of this level with just a thought.

However, the spell itself will be greatly influenced by the subjective consciousness of the caster, so making some special movements or simply saying the spell are all very effective self-suggestions, which can better make the spell show the desired form.
