Chapter 84 I just want to sleep in your shadow forever...
"Well, the puffy little Zhen is so cute~" Jiufang Zhen was walking in front, Gojo Satoru ran to his right and slapped him in the face, but he was helpless with his strongest weapon.
He finally participated in the so-called first- and second-grade competition because Gojo Satoru promised that the winning grade would not have to take part in the final exam of this semester!
Bad Student Jiufang: ...
After watching enough of the show and teasing the shy students, Gojo Satoru started to talk business. Business is the game (crossed out) Contents of the game: There are seven cursed spirits on this mountain, one is level one in an old temple abandoned by the locals, there are two quasi-level one, and four level two...
Kugisaki was shocked: "What remote place can gather seven cursed spirits?"
How bad must the villagers here be to have given birth to so many cursed spirits! This is no longer the closed and xenophobic countryside like her hometown. This is the unruly people in the poor mountains and bad waters!
"Ah, don't think that cursed spirits are weak in places with few people." Zenin Maki warned the inexperienced Kugisaki Nobara: "There are many people in the city, but the sorcerers also frequently clear them out. On the contrary, in small places like this, without the attention of sorcerers, the window detection is not accurate enough, and humans are superstitious and ignorant due to their lack of knowledge, which may hinder the sorcerers' mission. Once they get entangled, the only way to comfort yourself is to 'not bother with them'..."
"Ha, so are we just going to let them bully the sorcerer in this situation?"
"Usually I would contact the assistant supervisor, or take some small revenge..."
Gojo Satoru blinked, then quietly listened to the conversation between their seniors and juniors, then smiled and clapped his hands:
"Well, don't interrupt! Anyway!" He drew everyone's attention back, "The mechanism is: the first-level cursed spirit gets two points, and the other six get one point each. Within 48 hours, find and exorcise them all. The grade with the most points wins! In the event of a tie, the grade that collects four points first wins!"
"Tip! During this time, you have to find your own supplies and hunt to survive!"
He took out a handful of small flowers from behind, raised his hand and scattered them to announce the start of the game!
"Wait a minute!" Panda stopped Zenin Maki who was about to run up the mountain, and reported to the "referee" Gojo Satoru: "Can Hui's Jade Dog search? Does this count as cheating? The Jade Dog can quickly find the locations of all the cursed spirits. Doesn't that mean the first-year will definitely win this race?"
Gojo Satoru pinched his chin and pretended to be in deep thought: "This is indeed a problem... You mean that Hui can't summon the Jade Dog during this period?"
"no!"
Fushiguro Hui felt that what Panda said made sense. The two teams went their separate ways. With the Jade Dog, they could completely skip the search and save a lot of time. He just nodded in agreement when he saw the Nine Square Array angrily say:
"The dog is his spell, so why can't it be used?" The Nine Squares fired at the panda, and he directly said, "In addition to his dog, there is also his bird. Shouldn't it be sealed as well to occupy the sky advantage? If it can't be used for searching, shouldn't it be used for fighting? Since the Shikigami needs to be sealed as a helper, Inumaki shouldn't use spells! Zenyuan doesn't use weapons, and you don't use fists. For fairness, at worst, everyone will die together in the battle!"
The second-year students and Gojo Satoru looked at him with complicated eyes to defend Fushiguro Megumi. The panda who was bombarded was only criticized for making a little suggestion. The criticism was extremely exaggerated, and the whole second-year students were targeted. He even said something like "die together". What a guy! The meaning revealed in his words was: With him around, Fushiguro Megumi can't suffer any grievances!
If it weren't for the strong desire to win, such exaggerated associations and overprotective desire, they could only say:
Emm, you love him so much!
Take another look at Fushiguro Megumi, who is being treated like a treasure and protected by others, with a helpless look on her face...
Shouting: Jiufang, don’t love me too much!
Jiu Fang Zhen also had his own selfish motives. He had stumbled all the way up the mountain with steps in the Spell Art Academy, and this was a wild mountain that few people had set foot on, so the road would be even more difficult to walk on!
Jiu Fang Zhen has been thinking about Fushiguro Megumi's bird since he agreed to participate! He has already thought that he will not be useful in the search anyway, so he will wait for Kugisaki Nobara and Fushiguro Megumi to find the location of the cursed spirit and then use the bird to take him there. And there will definitely be muddy mountain roads that require him to go, in this case he needs a guide dog to lead the way!
Fortunately, there weren't many situations where he would be needed to help, and they should be able to exorcise the second-level cursed spirits themselves. If there was a first-level or even special-level cursed spirit in the ruined temple... it would be safer for him to kill it, right?
In the end, the Nine Squares successfully "persuaded" the others to leave Fushiguro Megumi's dog behind.
His two companions agreed with his tactics, mainly because Kugisaki also felt that it was not humane to make it difficult for someone who could not see at all in the dark to walk on the mountain road. Since it would slow down the progress, it would be better to stay at the foot of the mountain for the time being. Anyway, Fushiguro can summon at most two shikigami at the same time, so why not let the bird pick him up when the time comes?
By this calculation, most of the time there is one less person in the first grade than in the second grade!
The second-year students agreed with the result and took the lead to go up the mountain along the path pointed by Gojo Satoru. The first-year students took another path, and after Fushiguro Megumi gave them some instructions, they followed after being urged by Kugisaki Nobara.
His peers and seniors all went up the mountain. Jiu Fangzhen walked a few steps to find a place he thought was safe, and slowly sat down.
The bus that brought them here had already left. Gojo Satoru said hello to him and no one knew where it went. Jiufangzhen found a tree to lean against and replenish his strength.
His physical strength was much better than Bai Suchuan's, but compared to the sorcerer, this was not his strong point. He couldn't eat or sleep well due to long-term mental stress. His physical fitness was not even as good as that of ordinary people. He relied on his magic power to support him when he went on missions frequently! During his time at the technical college, someone watched him eat, and he had reached a normal level without realizing it, but he began to feel hungry...
Jiu Fangzhen raised his arms to block out the glaring sunlight. He had almost digested the meal he had eaten in the morning. Now that he had no water to replenish his body, he seemed to have low blood sugar...
Although the Nine Squares were resting, he did not stop his vigilance. There were many cursed spirits nearby, who knew if they would come down and attack him?
Rather, it is strange that so many cursed spirits above level 2 gather on one mountain!
Unable to figure it out, he planned to go look for food later. He had never tried using cursed power to hunt.
A few minutes later, the shadows of the trees swayed, and there was a rustling sound in the dense forest behind them! The Nine Squares suddenly jumped up from the tree they were sitting on. Instead of rushing up to attack, they jumped to a far position.
"Ah, the first reaction was..." The first reaction was not to attack but to escape?
Yuji Itadori muttered in distress.
His position was blocked by the shade of the trees, and the sunlight could not shine on him. In the eyes of the Nine Square Array, he was in a dark forest, and a huge creature slowly stood up.
A beast? A beast that was fast asleep here? Had it been lying here before they came, so it didn't make any noise and no one noticed it?
Jiu Fang Zhen just subconsciously hid away, the creatures that appeared silently behind him always frightened him. But now he no longer has this worry!
Two concentrated spell power bullets with explosive splash effects flew towards the position of the "beast". The tree he had just leaned on and the area behind it within a range of nearly ten meters had been bombed out! No matter what kind of beast it was, it would not have a good end under the ruthless attack.
"Wow!" The scary route planned by Yuji Itadori has been scrapped. He was afraid that the Kyufang formation would attack again and hurt more flowers and plants, so he quickly ran out of the woods and shouted: "Kyufang! Kyufang! It's me! Sensei Gojo asked me to hide here to scare you, but you found me before I could act." Itadori felt wronged!
It seems that Gojo-sensei has forgotten about him and has not made any gestures to him. Now he is nowhere to be found! It was the teacher who suggested this... The boy who respects the teacher has to admit that the teacher is not very reliable!
And, he actually took action! When Gojo-sensei wasn't helpful, he took action on his own!
He wanted to pretend to be a returning panda to scare the Nine Squares... Well, he didn't expect that when he saw the panda coat, he didn't get close as planned, and he just hid away, and then attacked without further investigation! Didn't he consider what if it was an innocent passerby or a small animal?
For example, an innocent panda (?)
…
And then it became like this.
Yuji Itadori scratched his head and collapsed!
The Nine Square Formation took up a fighting stance and was ready for battle. Facing the dark-skinned guy who called himself Yuji Itadori, his hands were ready to attack!
The beast that could dodge that attack must be no ordinary beast!
Can he still call himself Yuji and try to deceive him by taking advantage of his poor eyesight?
A cursed spirit that can disguise itself and read brain memories!
Jiu Fangzhen sneered in his heart: What a coincidence! He ran into him! I just don't know what level he is at!
Yuji Itadori was running and jumping, feeling like crying. He failed to show his harmlessness in this round. No matter he approached from the front or the side, it would stimulate the Nine Square Formation, so he could only dodge back and forth, and a large area of trees behind him suffered!
"Believe me, my name is Yuji Itadori! This is a doll outfit I'm wearing, wait for me to take it off and show you!"
With such accuracy, don’t throw it away!
