"Hmm~ So that's how it is."

Yuki had no intention of answering her sister's question and changed the subject.

"Just now, Kurumi said something big happened in the village, so what exactly happened?"

"Oh... yeah, now's not the time to dwell on this!"

Walnut slapped his forehead suddenly.

"Just now, news came from the village that the magic sword Brunhilde, used to seal evil spirits in the back mountain, was pulled out by that guy Qingdou. Now he is possessed by the evil spirit and is heading towards the village. Currently, the adults in the village are blocking the way, and the children have evacuated to the shelter. Hayase is responsible for notifying the Hanakaiin family. I came here to check on you because I was worried about my sister and brother Fugui."

"Is this so..."

Huakaiyuan Fogui thought for a moment and then nodded.

"I understand. Where is the shelter? I'll escort you there first. After I get you to a safe place, I'll go over to provide support."

"Don't, don't go!"

Hearing this, Hu Tao subconsciously wanted to speak out to stop him.

"Qingdou's strength is already among the best in the village. If he is possessed by an evil spirit and takes the magic sword Brunhilde, even if you convert to Buddhism..."

"What a stupid thing to say."

Before she finished her words, a warm hand reluctantly covered the girl's head.

I saw Huakaiyuan Fogui standing on tiptoe with a confident smile on his face.

"I'm the Hanakaiin family's agent. As an agent... I can't run away!"

Chapter 258 The Initial Despair

The scene changes. During the time when Kurumi was looking for Hanakaiin Fukui and her sister Yuki, the village had become a scene of purgatory.

The training ground that was once filled with the sounds of training is now dead silent, and the land, every inch of which was watered with the sweat of generations, is now soaked with deep red blood.

"Drink!!!"

Accompanied by a roar like that of a demon from the abyss, a scarlet knife light fell from the sky, followed by the wails of death.

An adult man with a physique that could be called burly was directly cut into two parts by this blow. His upper body, blood and internal organs were thrown into the sky by the powerful force of the blow, and fell to the ground like rain.

Then there was no life at all.

"Demon Hunt!!!"

The fellow villagers who saw this scene from behind cried out in grief, then gripped the hilt of the knife even tighter and swung it at the monster in front of them.

The man was killed by a humanoid creature holding a crescent-shaped sword.

That’s right, it can only be called a humanoid creature, not a “human” in the true sense.

Under the influence of the evil spirit, his physical appearance has undergone tremendous changes.

The clear eyes that humans should have are gone, replaced by a blood-red color as thick as the abyss; the originally black crew cut has turned into long coffee-colored hair, growing behind the back like a hedgehog, with long hair on the forehead connected to the beauty, and long hair like a monster has grown everywhere on the body.

Such a scene would frighten not only children but even adults.

Of course, the main reason was that he had gained far greater strength than before thanks to the blessing of the evil spirit and the magic sword, and...

"Roar--"

Accompanied by a low roar, the man who was cut into two pieces and should have died suddenly moved, and then dragged half of his body to his feet from the ground.

Then... a pair of eyes that were also stained with blood were revealed.

It's like a virus infection. All those killed by the evil spirit will be further possessed by the evil spirit, one after another, until there are no survivors left, only an entire army of undead controlled by the evil spirits.

And now, this undead army is almost taking shape.

"Damn it, what should I do now..."

At the entrance of the training ground, the few remaining adult male warriors stood back to back, holding swords and forming a counter-encirclement. Looking around at the ubiquitous undead army around them, they couldn't help but show despair on their faces.

Their mission is to defend this place and never let the evil spirits set foot in the village.

But now their defense line is on the verge of collapse. As time goes by, their combat effectiveness has been greatly reduced. Instead, the undead army controlled by the evil spirits has become increasingly large and has now surrounded them.

And what's even more terrible is that, just like those who drowned were able to swim, most of the other troops who have been lost are those who can fight, while the few that are left are relatively weak.

This is still a relatively polite statement.

To put it bluntly, every one of the remaining people is just hanging around in the village.

Obviously, the evil spirit has also seen this point now. It is not in a hurry to gather troops to attack head-on. Instead, it lets its undead army attack one by one. It seems to be consuming their physical strength, but in fact it is more like a cat teasing a mouse.

It seemed as if he had planned to exhaust them to death here.

"There's...there's no other way. How about we run away!"

Suddenly one of them suggested this, with an obvious tremor in his voice.

"We're only here to delay for a while, and it's only a matter of time before we're breached. Why not just return to the village now..."

"You're talking about your mother!"

Before he finished speaking, an angry voice came from the side, also trembling.

"Those taking refuge in the village now are our future. Think about your children! If we don't hold on here, and the evil spirit breaks through and enters the village, everyone will die!"

"But, but I don't have any children at all."

"...Well said, actually I don't have any either."

"..."

As soon as these two sentences were spoken, it seemed as if they had opened up the Ren and Du meridians of everyone present. There was no further words to say, but an atmosphere of fear of fighting had already spread among the few people.

Now all that’s missing is someone to add, “Or, let’s just run away.”

Fear filled his heart, and his fingers were so sore and painful that he could hardly hold the sword.

At this moment, a young boy's slightly immature voice came from above his head.

"Thank you for your hard work, leave the rest to me."

Huh?

Everyone was stunned and hadn't reacted yet.

The next second, a golden figure descended from the sky in the posture of a superhero landing, and hit the ground with a tremendous force like a meteorite from outer space.

boom! ! !

In an instant, the ground shook and set off a huge air wave. The golden spiritual power spread out like a sacred new star with the young man's landing point as the center, shaking off a large number of undead around him and dissipating them in mid-air.

Naturally, the only person who could arrive at this time was Huakaiyuan Fogui.

He raised his hand and pushed aside the few people standing back to back in front of him and came to the front. Looking at the densely packed undead army on the training ground in front of him, he couldn't help but be stunned.

"Why are there so many..."

"Yes, yes, Hanakaiin will act for me."

The man's voice came from behind them tremblingly. In this state where both their mental and physical strength were at the limit, they were only one firecracker away from peeing their pants.

But at this time, Hua Kaiyuan Fogui could not take care of their emotions and asked directly.

"So all of this needs to be disposed of?"

"no."

The man hesitated to speak.

Hua Kaiyuan Fogui turned around and rolled his eyes at him: "What do you mean by 'no... yes'?"

"That's right... they all need to be dealt with, but the main thing is Qing Dou."

The man raised his hand cautiously and pointed at a man in the center of the undead army who was holding a crescent-shaped sword and was obviously different from the other possessed people.

"He's holding the demonic sword Brunhilde, which is simply no match for ordinary weapons like ours. If we can get rid of Qingdou first, the rest will be much easier."

"understood."

He did it as soon as he said it. Hua Kaiyuan Fogui lightly clenched his fist, and his innate powerful spiritual power instantly enveloped his entire body. The burning fighting spirit rose from the ground and soared into the sky.

"Then leave him to me."

"Eh? Should we...should we just rush in?"

Several grown men were still hesitating, but Huakaiyuan Fogui had already taken action.

"I'll lead the way, and you guys help me guard the back! Please!"

With a loud shout, the young man stepped on the ground, and the golden spiritual power wave immediately spread out along the ground again, causing the undead to stagger back and be stunned wherever it passed.

Immediately afterwards, Hua Kaiyuan Fogui threw another punch, and the terrifying force that was enough to easily break monuments and split rocks instantly shattered the three or five undead in front of him.

But this is just the beginning.

Then he saw Huakaiyuan Fogui alternating his fists in front of his chest, punching out one punch after another, and with an absolutely crushing attitude, he forcibly opened up a path belonging to the living among the horde of undead.

So strong!

At this moment, this was the only thought that flashed through the minds of all the adults present.

They had no choice. At this moment, either everyone had to work together to eliminate the evil spirit here, or they would be exhausted to death and perish together.

"Hurry! Follow, keep up!"

Looking at the back of the young man who had already rushed into the army of undead alone, one of the men suddenly reacted and spoke loudly, while gripping the iron sword in his hand tightly and preparing to follow.

However, they were still a step too slow. Their brief hesitation caused the path that Huakaiyuan Fogui had opened with his fists to gradually close. Facing the countless ferocious undead, the man subconsciously retracted his footsteps just before he could take them.

As the saying goes, the first push is strong, the second weakens, and the third is exhausted. I failed to charge when I should have, and by the time I wanted to charge, the only chance to win had already slipped away.

"No, no, I can't keep up..."

"Let's run away, we can't get in!"

"I'm sorry, but I'll leave the rest to you! Hanakaiin will do it!"

what? !

Hearing the sound, Huakaiyuan Fugui was suddenly startled and looked behind him, but what he saw were only more densely packed and hideous faces of the undead than before.

He was surrounded.

Chapter 259 Rage Beyond Death!

Among the three realms, humans have always been the weak ones.

For countless epochs in the past, the human race has existed for a long time as a source of food for the demons and various evil spirits and monsters.

After all, humans cannot be compared with demons and monsters in terms of physical strength alone. No matter how hard they work out, it will only make the flesh firmer.

As for supernatural powers, there is no need to mention that in the earliest times, humans did not have the so-called "spiritual power".

However, even in such a devastating start, the human race relied on its invincible reproductive ability to create "spiritual power" in its offspring, and evolved a "discipline" that no other demon race had at the time.

Because we are weak, we need to travel together and help each other.

Just like the Scarlet Witch's invasion of Amal-Taj in "Doctor Strange 2", looking at the entire battlefield, none of the other magicians except Doctor Strange himself and Wong can be a match for Scarlet Witch, but when they join forces to hold up the formation, they can also stop the powerful Scarlet Witch's invasion, forcing her to find other ways.

By the same token, the people of the Hanakaiin family are instilled with the concept of "teamwork" when they are trained to become Onmyoji from a young age. Even the most independent Onmyoji must act in groups of two, and if they are just ordinary Onmyoji with mediocre talent, they must carry out missions in teams of five to ten people, with everything from reconnaissance units to auxiliary units to combat units.

Just like soldiers in the army.

For someone like Hanakaiin Fukuei, charging directly into the undead army controlled by evil spirits is already a "gamble".

After all, even if it drags on like this, the final result will be death. It is better to rush in here and maybe you can find a way to survive.

Anyway, it couldn't have been any worse.

What Huakaiyuan Fogui never expected was that in his eyes, since these brave men, like the Huakaiyuan family, were committed to eliminating demons and defending justice, they should have relatively high discipline and psychological quality. However, at this critical moment, they actually... became cowardly?

Stab it--!

Accompanied by a sound like cloth being torn, a cold yet hot sensation came from the boy's shoulder.

A stream of warm blood shot up into the sky, and Hua Kaiyuan Fogui also leaned forward. With his upward perspective, he saw the dark red liquid floating like reed flowers in the sky above, and the sharp sword in the lower left corner that pierced his collarbone from bottom to top.

“Ugh… cough!!”
