Chapter 22: Blade was right
Shi Zheng Blade is very efficient, and Shi Zheng, who attaches great importance to this mission, is also very efficient. I send a message almost in the last second and receive a reply from Shi Zheng in the next second.
"The coordinates have been sent to Kitsunesuke." Yamaubakiri Nagayoshi put away the communicator, "To enter another person's main warship, you need to use the time-space converter in the main warship to teleport."
Oh, the time-space converter, the big golden compass.
That thing is of no use to you. You can rely on the system map to directly transfer to the battlefield where you have passed the level - haha, I didn't dare tell other Blades because you would occasionally go out to kill monsters and level up in the middle of the night.
If the other Blades knew about this, they would definitely start to yell and grumble for a week, right? Really, why is the NPC's memory so good?
Sometimes when you are collecting, you may suddenly hear an NPC mention the bad things you did a month ago, which makes you feel guilty and the number of drops is reduced.
However, the complex patterns and numbers on the golden compass still give people a very friendly feeling - just like that function problem that you just can't solve.
The first team is ready. You look left and right. In the past, you either cleared the map alone or brought one or two knives to quickly gain experience. This is the first time you go into battle with so many blades at once. It's quite embarrassing.

"Master, are you feeling unwell?" Tsurumaru Kuninaga, who went to the hair salon to fix his hair, lifted you up and said, "Haha, do you want Yakuin to take a look?"
“No, no need.” You put on a cold face, “Put me down, I don’t want to talk to a blade that didn’t win yesterday.”
Tsurumaru Kuninaga: Smear attack.
The other blades that were not chosen looked at Tsurumaru Kuninaga with disdain, turned around and surrounded you, and began to act coquettishly: "Master, you must choose me next time. A blade that can't even win a game of cards like this is unreliable."
"If you want revenge..."
"Old... Tiger is very cute... Please... Please take me with you..."
…
“Haha, I’ll definitely do it next time, definitely next time.” There are so many blades... You nervously take a step back. If they get any closer, you’ll have a social anxiety attack.
"Sir, the coordinates have been determined. We can set off at any time." Kitsunesuke jumped off the converter and ran to your side and rubbed against you. "We can't go with you this time. Please protect yourself."
"Then I wish you good luck in martial arts."

"Is this the Dark Honmaru..." Yamaubakiri Kunihiro stood at the entrance of the Dark Honmaru, looking up at the Honmaru in front of him with a serious expression, "An unknown aura..."
"General, please come behind me." Yagen Toushirou protected you behind him and looked around vigilantly.
"Wow, this is a big surprise." Tsurumaru Kuninaga rarely put away his smile, but he turned around and smiled at you again, "Hey, master, can't this mission be canceled? If you just want to see the Dark Fallen Blade, Crane can also turn into a black crane."
"No, reject technology and hard work, and advocate harmless and natural."
You look at the silent government team, then at the serious-looking Honmaru team, wondering why you are so nervous since you are still at the entrance of the dungeon and haven't seen any monsters.
This batch of NPCs is not good, Xiaofei sighed and shook his head, this is the worst batch you have ever led.
But isn't this Dark Honmaru a bit too stereotypical? You thought it was going to be scary, but it turns out that the Honmaru is covered by a layer of pitch-black mist, like a hell filter on the ordinary Honmaru.
This black mist debuff is about to hit you in the face.
【? Mist: A highly polluting and contagious mist of unknown origin that will distort the human mind and corrode non-human beings. Players who come into contact with it will be inflicted with [poisoned] [silenced] [dizzy] [paralyzed] [slowed down] [blind] and other statuses. Equipped with special items to resist mist pollution. 】
[It is detected that you have equipped a special item. The current item is in effect. Remaining time: 23:53:42]
What is this? Isn't this the perfect tonic soup for the demon flower? You lean back. The reason for the downfall of Honmaru couldn't be because he raised the demon flower without permission, right?
Ichimonji Norimune, who has entered the working state, still seems very reliable. While using current affairs props to create a one-way channel, he explains to you the situation of the Dark Fall of Honmaru.
"Tokimasa used Onmyojitsu to inform the swordsmen who were still in Honmaru. They will wait for us in the Great Hall."
"According to the Dark Fall model constructed based on data and theory, bone spurs will grow on the Dark Fallen Sword. The deeper the Dark Fall, the higher the degree of ossification. In the end, the Dark Fallen Sword will become an irrational Time Traveler."
At this point, Ichimonji Zezong laughed sarcastically.
"It's really ironic that the sword man was born with the goal of destroying the Time Travel Army, but he became the Time Travel Army because of his fall from grace."
"Oh my, the old man doesn't want his future enemies to be his current companions." He looked at you with a smile and said softly, "No matter what the result is, we are very grateful for your choice at this moment."
This, well, how should I put it, I've reached the door of the dungeon, but the system is still like dead. Maybe this dungeon is not passed by purification, but by bloodthirsty souls killing everywhere?
You are not sure, after all, you are not a nanny who can read the dispelling. But on second thought, it doesn't matter, you are just here to supplement the illustrated book, it doesn't matter if it is dark or not, as long as it can be included in the illustrated book, it is a good blade.
The Dark Fallen Blade can't be added to the illustrated collection? Hehe, it's a good deal to buy a wave of working cattle and horses. It's not a big deal if it's contagious, at most I can put a few more barrier props in the basement.
No matter whether it is a cow, a horse or a knife, use them all to make the cake!

The black fog inside the main castle is thicker.
You glanced at the system instructions and saw that the remaining time of the item suddenly jumped from [23:42:36] to [19:42:36].
Frog fun, the time limit has been greatly reduced!
Fortunately, the concentration inside is relatively consistent, and you didn't lose four hours for every step you took. You breathed a sigh of relief, but you were so scared that you almost thought that the second death would give you the Ten-fold Tonic Soup.
If you really are doomed after taking six steps, you can try changing the name of the current affairs prop to Seven-Step Deadly Powder.
It feels like a hellish joke, not sure. I'll try telling it to Jinpei Matsuda next time.
"In front of us is the large hall of the main castle." Yamaubakiri Nagayoshi recalled the political data, "The few swordsmen who chose to stay were Mikazuki Munechika, Iwamoto, Ishikiri Maru, Chodaikiri Mitsutada, Okurigara, and Izumi-no-kami Kanesada."
"The first sword to be infected was Mikazuki Munechika, and the next to be infected were Iwamoto and Ishikirimaru, both from the Sanjo sect."
"Kadoikiri Mitsutada and Izumi-no-kami Kanesada chose to stay because they received help from the Sanjo faction. Oh Kurikara seems to be worried about Kadoikiri?"
"The swords left behind are not rare swords, so the successor Shinto shrine doesn't care whether they stay or go." Ichimonji Norimune frowned and used a fan to blow away the mist in front of him. "It's strange that there has never been a Horikawa Kunihiro in this Honmaru, otherwise there would probably be one more sword left behind."
That's true, you nodded. Occasionally, when Horikawa Kunihiro chats with you, he always mentions Kane-san. You feel like you're being brainwashed.
Well, six knives are not too many. In a one-on-one fight, you can still get more help. And there are no duplicate knives. Hehe, pack them all up and take them away!
"Is Koubo here too?" Tsurumaru Kuninaga quickened his pace. "Oh, I heard that Koubo's cooking is delicious. Master, you can try his cooking skills when you come... Master? Are you still here?"
[A limited-time collection point was detected at 210 meters to the northeast]
You can be absent.
"Did you find something?" Ichimonji Norimune follows your gaze, "Oh, over there..."
You asked curiously, "What's going on there?"
"There are the thousand-year-old cherry trees in Honmaru. The last time we checked, they were already withered, meow." Nanquan's hair trembled and drooped like airplane ears. "It must be seriously polluted now."
"According to the speculation that the source of the Darkness appeared in the Honmaru, perhaps the judges thought that there was something wrong with the Ten Thousand Years Cherry Blossom." Yamaubakiri Nagayoshi joined the discussion group. "Indeed, the previous investigation only took photos of the Ten Thousand Years Cherry Blossom and did not conduct detailed inspections."
"Maybe..." Yamaubakiri Kunihiro pulled his hood habitually, "The master's spiritual power is very strong... he sensed something."
"You are amazing, General." Yagen Toushirou gave you a look of admiration. "Did you notice something was wrong as soon as you entered the main castle, General?"
"Oh, no wonder I was distracted just now. You are worthy of being the master of the crane. You scared everyone so quickly." Tsurumaru Kuninaga started to applaud like a seal.
Haha, is that so? You are so amazing... You felt guilty for a second, then nodded. Yes, that's all you thought of.
You said righteously, "Yes, that's right. I think there's something wrong there. You guys go to the square first. I'll take a look at the situation and come back."
Well, I'll be back after I finish collecting.
Rejecting the requests of other blades to follow you, you carry your axe and rush to the limited-time collection point.
The thousand-year-old cherry tree that you are familiar with has completely died. The entire tree has turned charred black, and thick black fog has gathered on the crown of the tree. From time to time, you can see the branches twitching violently in the fog.
The light of the limited-time collection point lit up at the root of the tree. You felt a little sorry for the tragic death of the thousand-year-old cherry blossom for a second, and then quickened your pace to the collection point.
As you approach the thousand-year-old cherry tree, you notice a person in a white veil leisurely drinking tea under the tree. He seems surprised to notice your presence, and then he chuckles: "This young judge is..."
"Wait, let's talk about this later. This..." You glanced at the other person in a hurry, "The second weirdo who steals the quilt and sheets."
Damn it, this collection point disappeared in just over a minute!
As the collection point flickered and was about to disappear, you finally ran to the tree and chopped it down with your axe.
Phew, I'm so tired. You raised your hand to wipe off the non-existent sweat, revealing a sunny smile, and collected new collection points, rewarding yourself by secretly eating hundreds of millions of junk food at night.
[Limited time collection points have been included]
[You have obtained an important item: Strange Black Fragment (Small)]
[Main quest updated]
[Main Mission: Collect Important Items]
Well, you shouldn't have any expectations for the main storyline of illustrated games - the result is just another kind of collection? !
But you chopped out the source of the darkness with just one axe. You are worthy of being me. Great! The life of the little fat emperor is so easy.
Sure enough, the ultimate secret of the game is fishing, collecting, walking birds and playing cards.
After feeling proud for a while, you finally have time to say hello to Blade, a person you have never met before.
"Are you done, little judge?" He didn't care about your previous disregard and happily handed you a cup of tea. "Would you like some tea?"
You first glanced at the teacup. There was no tea in it, only warm water. Just as you were about to say something weird, you saw the other person's face.
Amazing!
So you blew a skillful whistle towards the blue-haired Fuzangshen.
"Mi-Ren." You took out the Azema Rose from your backpack, "Can I know your name?"
Although the concentration of the black fog here is a bit too high, and the prop validity period has jumped by eight hours, the other person's face is vaguely visible through the fog, but she is so beautiful!
This kind of half-covering is a completely different kind of hazy beauty, not to mention that the other person is wearing a sheet that is cleaner than a quilt, which makes you feel something.
You get the idea. All the NPCs in this game that look special will be wearing bed sheets. Next time you want to grab a blade that looks special, just go for the ones wearing bed sheets.
Master, you understand it completely.
The blue-haired Fukuei God covered his face with his sleeves and laughed a few times: "Little Judge, haven't you seen me yet? I am Mikazuki Munechika...Oboro's..."
The moon in his eyes sparkled brightly in the darkness.
"…Is it okay to call me Longyue?"*
