The demon monk in the second dimension

Jiuzhilai sheathed his sword and bowed slightly to Xia Zhi.

"I'm sorry for making a fool of myself, Venerable Master."

Later, when he encountered the Kabane during the summer solstice, he would deliberately leave a few behind so that the samurai who came with him could try them out.

If one-on-one isn't enough, then two or three people should go together.

Finally, when the carts were full of Kabane's corpses and returned to the Senjin Post Station, all the samurai had the experience of fighting the Kabane head-on with cold weapons.

Chapter 51 Merit Point Exchange (Please add to your favorites and vote for this chapter)

After becoming a Golden Core cultivator, Xia Zhi had enough mana to cast a purification spell.

This is a spell cast on clothes and shoes that effectively repels stains, like wearing a raincoat.

It's especially useful for waterproofing when it rains.

So when he finished carving the blood pool array using Kabane's spine and blood, a burst of magic shook Xia Zhi's body, and all the blood and bits of flesh were shaken off.

He remains the pristine and beautiful young demon.

Just like at the Eight Generations Station.

At first, the people of Kabane were very curious about the pile of corpses at Jinyi Station.

But once the pile of corpses turned into a pool of blood and emitted a strong, stench, no one dared to approach it anymore.

……

The post town in front of Xianjin Post Station is called Sugu Post Station.

The distance between Soya Station and Kenkin Station was even shorter than that between Yashiro Station, and a steam locomotive could reach them in just one day.

However, the previous Juncheng that came to Kenjin Station for repairs notified Shihōgawa Kenjō that Hayatani Station, which was ahead of Kenjin Station, had fallen.

They also brought a letter from the leader of the hunting party, Amaterasu Mima.

In his letter, Amatori Mima stated that his deputy, Shimon, and his subordinates were heading to Kongo-kaku, where the Japanese shogunate was located, and he hoped that Yoshikazu Ken could help them by sending them to the castle on the way to Kongo-kaku.

"The monks Siwen and Wuming?"

This news led Xia Zhi to conclude that, in the original timeline, Xianjin Post Station must have fallen recently.

He gave instructions to Shihōkawa Kenjō.

"Give me the latest train timetable,"

Xia Zhi took a look at the train schedule and quickly discovered the reason why Xianjin Station had fallen.

"Fusang Castle will arrive in fifteen days, and the Iron Fortress will arrive in sixteen days."

Because of the fall of Hayatani Station, the Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress, which came from the direction of Hayatani Station, arrived a day earlier.

Then, the direction Fusang City came from was—

"Yata-i Station?"

Xia Zhi was taken aback.

"Did Fusang Castle come from Yatsushiro Station?"

In just a moment, Xia Zhi's intelligent spirit immediately understood what was going on.

"So it seems that Fusang City also suffered from the Kabane fusion group's misfortune!"

According to the original timeline, a Kabane fusion group arrived at Yatsushiro Station, causing the station to fall.

Meanwhile, Fusang Castle, unaware of this matter, chose to pass through Yatsushiro Station, and then also encountered trouble.

Finally, the unfortunate Xianjin Post Station encountered Fusang City, which had already been captured by the Kabane, and subsequently fell to the enemy.

"So it's all the fault of the Kabane fusion group? After I dealt with them, I actually ensured the safety of the two post cities and one Jun City?"

Xia Zhi shook her head with amusement, while Shifang Chuanjian, standing to the side, asked in a low voice with some confusion.

"Master, what has happened?"

"nothing."

Xia Zhi put the train timetable aside and changed the subject.

What is the production volume of the Vulcan rifle?

"The molds for the Vulcan rifles have been completed, and it is estimated that about forty rifles can be produced per month."

Yoshikazuki spoke to Natsumi, while also pointing out the shortcomings.

"However, neither Xianjin Station nor Yadai Station produces gunpowder, which greatly limits the production of bullets."

Anyone with a little knowledge knows that bullets are the real money-eaters compared to guns.

Whether it's for daily training or hunting Kabane, you need enough bullets.

Xia Zhi nodded.

"It seems we still need to focus our efforts on the Kari clan."

Xia Zhi only had two post stations under his control: Badaiyi and Xianjinyi.

Although Kenjin Station could occasionally be used for private purposes, with the shogunate controlling the railway, he could not use Junjo too frequently.

Therefore, Xia Zhi needs a Juncheng that he can control to transport the supplies he needs.

"Four words and nameless? One is a confidant of Tentori Mima, and the other is Kabaneri. That makes sense."

Suddenly, Xia Zhi seemed to realize something, and her expression changed.

"It's smaller, the layout is smaller!"

He shook his head slightly, patted his face, and laughed self-deprecatingly.

"I'm supposed to be a transmigrator, yet I'm still limited by the common sense of the Heavenly Realm!"

In the Heavenly Realm, every righteous sect has its own territory and a sphere of influence over the mortal realms.

Using secret techniques such as hypnosis and soul control to control high-ranking mortals is easily discovered and will attract the attention of cultivators from the corresponding sects.

The mortal territories managed by demonic cultivators were in chaos; people only cared about who had the biggest fist, so there was no need for such a system.

But this isn't the Celestial Realm!

He could have easily controlled the entire Japanese mainland by controlling the Shogun and the lords of the various post towns!

He is now a Golden Core cultivator with abundant magical power, and his flying sword is enough to travel between post cities at a speed several times faster than a steam locomotive.

Using two or three outposts to capture the Kabane is nowhere near as fast as mobilizing the entire Himemoto!

Furthermore, Xia Zhi also realized that once she controlled the Sun, there were plenty of other ways to play!

For example, deliberately using a Juncheng to lure monsters.

The Kabane are drawn to blood.

He could transform a fortress that had been breached by the Kabane, and then use blood to lure a large number of Kabane into that fortress.

In this way, the number of Kabane that can be captured each time one uses divine sense can be increased several times!

After dealing with the Kabane in the city, we could even reclaim this post town, relocate its population, and control more resources!

Centering on the strength of Japan, they control the core territory and then radiate outwards to the whole of Asia.

For example, the Qing Dynasty and the Peacock Kingdom were both countries with extremely large populations.

This can save him a lot of time.

……

However, out of caution, Xia Zhi stayed at Xianjin Post Station for more than half a month.

These days, he leads the warriors of the Kenjin Post Station out of the city every day to fight against the Kabane, and gradually shows his appreciation for Kuchiki Kurusu.

He even made a Vajra talisman and gave it to Jiuzhilaixi.

After using the Vajra Talisman, a golden light will appear around Jiuzhi Laixi.

For half an hour, this golden light would allow him to defend against attacks from the Kabane.

To encourage the samurai, a merit system was implemented at Akigane Station and Yatsushiro Station during the summer solstice.

One Kabane is worth one merit.

Exchanging for the Vajra Talisman requires 30 merit points, the Wild Bull Talisman (increases strength) requires 20 merit points, and the Swiftness Talisman (increases agility) requires 20 merit points.

After accumulating 100 merits, you can also receive a special enhancement from the Mage!

Although the warriors knew that these talismans were made from the skin of the Kabane, they still flocked to them!

Gradually, Xia Zhi reduced her own involvement in combat and began guiding the warriors in coordinated battles.

From frequent mistakes at the beginning, to the point where three warriors could deal with five Kabane, and five warriors could deal with eight Kabane.

As long as they suppress their fear of the Kabane, the samurai will continue to improve!

Once the first batch of Vulcan lances is delivered to the samurai, dealing with the Kabane will be much easier!

Two weeks later, Xia Zhi met Si Wen and Wu Ming.

Without saying much, he directly subdued the two and learned the whereabouts of Amatori Mima from Shimon.

He gave instructions to Shifangchuan Jianjiang and Yuansong Gang, left behind a stack of talismans, and rode the crimson light into the sky, flying towards the location of the Hunting Fang Clan.

Chapter 52 Enchanted Iron Element

The Hunting Forces are a unit active on the front lines against the Kabane.

Their slogan was to awaken people's courage, to fight against the Kabane with the strength of the entire nation, and to liberate Japan.

Their leader, the chief of the Karifu, whom they called their young lord, was Amatori Mima, the eldest son of the Shogun who controlled Japan.

Because of their courage and strength, the Karifu clan is very famous in Japan, and many people have a favorable impression of them.

But in reality, the goal of the Karifu clan is not to liberate Hinomoto, but to drag the country into hell.

Ten years ago, not long after the Kabane landed in Japan, the shogunate debated the issue, dividing into pro-war and moderate factions.

The pro-war faction argued that the number of Kabane was still small and that they could be eliminated through various means.

Offense is the best defense.

The moderates, on the other hand, hope to preserve humanity's current territory and avoid unnecessary sacrifices.

Among them, fearing that the Kabane shogun would be looked down upon for his samurai spirit and that the pro-war faction would usurp his shogunate, he feigned joining the pro-war faction.

He appointed his eldest son, Mima Amagi, who was only twelve years old at the time and in the midst of his passionate teenage years, as general, leading an army of 40 to fight the Kabane to the death.

They initially had an army of 40, and this force did indeed wipe out a significant number of Kabane.

However, due to the general's calculations, this unit was cut off from supplies after leaving the city.

Furthermore, other towns also refused them entry, citing the reason that "someone may have been bitten by the Kabane, and the lives of others in the town need to be considered."

Exhausted and hungry, the 40-strong army, lacking weapons and supplies, was no match for the Kabane, who needed no food or water and whose numbers increased with every enemy that fell.

They were quickly wiped out by the Kabane.

Mima Tentori was bitten by a Kabane, but luckily transformed into a Kabane, without losing her rationality.

But when he finally returned to Kongō-tsuki after many hardships, the shogun turned the tables on him.

He never mentioned cutting off supplies, and in order to maintain his rule, he blamed the loss of 40 troops on the command errors of Amaterasu Mima, and even severed ties with him.

Comrades die, relatives turn against them, and they also have to endure the hatred and malice of the people who have lost loved ones.

As expected, 12-year-old Mima Amatori turned to the dark side.

Nowadays, he shouts about liberating Japan and demands that everyone take up arms to fight, but unlike Xia Zhi, he doesn't proceed step by step or develop healthily.

His method was to capture the Kabane and imprison them in the Hunters' Castle, "Khwarazm".

Once a post city accepts Kecheng, they will release the Kabane and allow them to conquer the post city!

With the city destroyed, and facing the Kabane's attack, the remaining people have no choice but to fight to survive!

Those who lack the courage to fight should die!
