Chapter 36: Ming Shen Yong Tian 12

"Mr. Ranbu!"

Nakajima Atsushi protected his glasses with one hand and held onto Edogawa Ranpo with the other. His calves were emaciated and withered like an old man under the spell of the cursed spirit, but fortunately, the powerful healing ability of the "White Tiger" was gradually repairing his limbs, and he would be back to health in a few moments.

"Mr. Ranbu, what should we do now?"

As they were talking, a huge storm came. Edogawa Ranpo held down his hat and said, "Let's leave here first. There are people outside to help us."

Nakajima Atsushi nodded slightly and immediately took him out.

Even with only one leg left to move, the white tiger's jumping ability is still amazing. A few jumps brought a roller coaster-like experience. Amid a slight feeling of dizziness and the sound of the wind, Edogawa walked around looking back.

The dust and waves blocked her vision, and several dazzling purple flashes passed by. Edogawa Ranpo squinted his eyes, and then confirmed that it was the lightning from Raiden's attack, not her own figure.

Without the glasses, he naturally couldn't see the real Curse Spirit, but he couldn't even see the movements of the Thunder Movie...

As expected, the power of Ray Cinema and Wendy is far beyond the imagination of ordinary people. I wonder if there are other people like them who are waiting in the dark for the opportunity to appear.

After leaving the maze-like sewer, Edogawa Ranpo ran into Ijichi Takaaki who was waiting outside.

The assistant supervisor had seen similar things many times and was experienced in dealing with them. He quickly stepped forward and calmed the two people in a businesslike manner.

"Mr. Nakajima, I will take you to the technical high school later. Don't worry, our school doctor, Ms. Kaori Naoko, is an expert in reversal procedures and will be able to cure your leg."

"Thank you."

Ijichi pushed up his glasses and looked at Edogawa Ranpo with a hint of caution: "Mr. Edogawa, I'm sorry to scare you. Do you want to let me know you're safe now?"

Edogawa Ranpo put on his glasses.

Unlike when I treated Atsushi, I specifically asked him if he wanted to report the news, and I came so quickly...

The sorcerer knew that he was just an ordinary person, but also knew how important he was to the president, so he was particularly worried about his safety.

"It turns out that the president contacted the Special Powers Division and asked them to contact you, and you contacted Ray Movie," he felt the vibration under his feet, "No need, it won't be too late to talk about it after it is completely safe."

Idi didn't know how the young man figured it out. He was shocked, but he remained polite on the surface: "With Miss Ying's strength, she is more than enough to deal with the cursed spirit."

"If it's a Raiden movie, then of course there's no problem, but Raiden isn't really good at fighting, right?"

As soon as he said that, Ijichi's expression changed.

Edogawa Ranpo continued: "You don't know the reason why she switched between her dual personalities."

This is what the detective noticed after leaving the sewer.

It seems that although Raiden Ying has a close relationship with the high school, he does not completely trust them, at least he did not tell them the exact conditions for personality switching. The sorcerer was shocked by her power, but forgot the danger she might encounter.

"Raiden Shin" will switch personalities when he sees the katana, but it is unknown when "Raiden Ying" will switch. If something goes wrong during the battle, the three of them will be doomed.

Moreover, no matter if it was for the mission or something else, since Ray came to rescue them specially, they couldn't just take care of their own safety.

Turn unknown variables into known variables and minimize risks.

Not only for now, but also for the future.

"What does Ranpo-san mean...?"

"Of course I want you to call for help."

"Mr. Ranbu, can I--"

Edogawa Ranpo interrupted Nakajima Atsushi and said, "I don't have any special powers, Atsushi-kun doesn't have any cursed tools, and you can't fight. The three of us can't help at all. Think about who is free and can fight the best now!"

“Okay, okay!”

*

The arm that was cut off by the naginata fell to the ground. The real person jumped back suddenly and looked down at the broken surface of his left arm - it was neat and tidy, without any signs of stuck.

A crisp and clean cut.

It's quite strong. Really want to.

He moved his shoulder, and the bleeding stopped quickly. New limbs mysteriously grew out of it, and then transformed into three iron chains that could be retracted at will and had tips as sharp as knives.

It's a pity that the tiger ran away... No, judging from their smell, they didn't run far.

Do you think you will win without a doubt? Because of this woman in front of you?

Facing his scrutinizing gaze, Thunder Shadow looked back at her quietly. When the violent lightning touched her fingertips, it willingly turned into a docile pet for her to control.

The real person straightened up and forced his back to stand straight.

As a special-grade cursed spirit with great power and a variety of tricks, Zhenren can easily deal with most sorcerers, and he will not show any fear even when facing Gojo Satoru.

So at this moment, he should laugh at the foolish behavior of the two people who reassured themselves too early.

However, the fact was that under his trousers, his legs were shaking slightly.

It's hard to detect, but it's there.

He was afraid of the woman in front of him.

This fear did not come from the heart, but out of instinct, and was deeply engraved in the bones and blood of the cursed spirit, which were built of power.

His instinct silently warned him not to fight against her, as there was no chance of winning.

"The cursed spirits born from people's hatred and fear of people will also be afraid of a human being." If you say this, you will probably make Louhu and the others laugh and ridicule you.

But what if the "person" in front of you is not a human being at all?

The real person pulled the corners of his stiff mouth.

Do those sorcerers, those ignorant humans, know what kind of monsters they are dealing with?

However, no matter what she is, as long as she has a soul, she can be controlled by his magic.

As long as I can touch her.

But the woman's movements were as fast as lightning. He couldn't even see her movements, let alone touch her. He could only dodge based on his instinct!

The real person gritted his teeth.

Find a way to distract her, slow her down, and look for flaws.

"Do they know what you are?"

As soon as she finished speaking, a swift and dazzling purple light came, stirring up thousands of waves, gravel and water waves roaring together. The real person transformed his feet into horse hooves and jumped back and forth between the walls, waiting for her answer.

Lei Yingying did not reply.

It doesn't matter what she is, as long as they know she is "Ray Movie".

The real person, however, became interested and insisted: "The soul existed before the body. My technique [Transformation without Action] can change the shape of the soul and then affect the body. Even a being like you cannot escape."

When the word "soul" was mentioned, Raiden's movements paused for a moment.

opportunity!

The real person suddenly jumped, and his powerful jumping force made him come in front of Raidenying in an instant. The real person extended the length of his arms and grabbed Raidenying's shoulders.

Success!

The world of spells follows the principle of equivalent exchange. Revealing intelligence during battle is equivalent to imposing constraints on oneself, allowing the enemy to obtain intelligence and formulate countermeasures, while the power of one's own spell will also be enhanced.

Therefore, his speed was faster than before, and it was reasonable for him to succeed.

Inaction changes and starts.

The real person was going to shrink her infinitely, from soul to body, everything was under his control——

Where is this?

The real person's eyes widened.

The sky was a rusty red, the ground was milky white sand with strange patterns carved on it, and the surroundings were a sea of ​​ruins.

The woman in the center looked at him indifferently, as if she was laughing at his arrogance.

There was no change in Raikage's body, and he was sure that he had successfully performed the technique.

The real person immediately jumped to a distance: "Realm?"

Domain, the space formed by the embodiment of the spiritual world and its own techniques.

After the real person finished speaking, he denied his own idea.

She has no magical power, lacks the skills, and does not meet the conditions to activate the domain.

This is a special place that is different from other areas.

Lei Dianying: "This place is called [One Heart Pure Land], I see that you seem to value souls very much, so why not fight you with souls."

"…What do you mean?"

Lei Dianying glanced at him, as if to say "Why are you so stupid?"

The real person curled his lips and said, "One Heart Pure Land... I understand. This is just the embodiment of the spiritual world."

He should have breathed a sigh of relief after knowing that it was not the domain, but at this moment, he realized that something was wrong.

Because his technique failed.

This means that Lei Dianying's control over the soul is far superior to his.

The situation changed in an instant.

In other words, he has always been the one at a disadvantage.

The following battle can be said to be one-sided. Raiden Ying can control the scope of [One Heart Pure Land]. She can expand the Pure Land to an infinite extent, or shrink it to a point where only she can fit.

Her attacks on real people are no longer limited to the body, but directly hit the soul.

After a moment, Lei Dianying put away Yixin Jingtu and looked at Zhenren coldly. The body of the cursed spirit did not change at all, but its soul was riddled with holes and imprisoned by several thunderbolts, unable to move.

Considering the recent anomalies, removal is not the best option. It is better to hand it over to a professional sorcerer to seal it temporarily.

Rai Denying is ready to ask Gojo Satoru.

But before she could take out her phone, the young man's voice rang out from behind her: "Oh, isn't this over?"

【Will Identification...】

He will fail, right? If he fails, Hoshino Nozomi can continue to play the role of Raiden Shin and answer with the prepared words...

【success.】

*

Gojo Satoru stopped and asked, "Xiaozhen?"

She did not answer. The breeze blew up the hem of her kimono, like layers of overlapping waves, beating against everyone's heart again and again.

Gojo Satoru said in a deep voice: "Xiaoying."

This time, she finally moved.

Lei Dianying slowly turned around, as stiff as an old and dilapidated machine, and could only slowly execute the commands sent by his brain.

She looked at Gojo Satoru, and there was a hint of panic in her light purple pupils.

"My sister... doesn't want to come out."
