Chapter 69: The Sword is Finished! On the Eve of the Decisive Battle! In the Sun Forging...
While waiting for the Sun Blade to be forged in the Sunforge Village, the player and Miaoji had a very pleasant time. Every day they completed daily tasks, improved their skills such as cooking, took on some random tasks and completed them.
After some action, the player quickly became familiar with every villager in Sunforge Village, and his own level also reached 48.
The others were also very leisurely, but they would always disappear for a while from time to time.
However, from the player's perspective, the busiest ones in the group are Willy and Viper.
Japan's related facilities are not perfect, and Luche's predictions about the Ghost King are sometimes effective and sometimes not. In order to find the Ghost King as quickly as possible, Willi first sent Skarlu to place instruments in various places where the Ghost King might appear.
He stayed in the Riduan Village, typing on the keyboard day after day. Every time he found some clues, he would ask the poisonous snake who was proficient in illusion to check it out, and he said that this would make it difficult to be discovered.
The venomous snake, who felt that he was working for nothing but had to do it, always went out with a face full of resentment, then came back with useless news with a face full of resentment, and then went out again with a face full of resentment.
This went on for three or four days, until the players who were watching the show became familiar with Viper's angry back, and then Viper came back again - this time he didn't come back alone, and Scarlu was following him.
"Did you gain anything this time?" After hearing the noise, Willdi, who was sitting in front of the computer, turned around and asked.
"The illusionary clone in the Flower Street once saw a woman with black hair and red eyes at night, but she wasn't wearing a kimono."
"According to a passerby who had the good fortune to survive the cannibal, the cannibal had four arms and four legs and looked terrifying, but for some reason it didn't kill him."
…
…
"A courtesan who is famous for her beauty has recently appeared in the red-light district." Viper, contrary to his usual behavior, spoke a lot of words in a row.
"I've also gained something!" Scarlu said loudly, raising his hands high. "Those small families that Emperor Welter had me monitor suddenly merged yesterday and quickly announced the next head of the family."
"The so-called next head of the family is an eight-year-old child with black hair and red eyes," Scarlu said with a curled lip. "Who are you kidding? That little boy doesn't look like any of his family members."
"It seems that the whereabouts of the Ghost King can be confirmed." After carefully summarizing all the clues collected in the past few days, Willdi looked thoughtfully at the video in front of him that Scarlu was said to have risked his life to record, and his gaze stopped on the child with black hair and red eyes.
No, you can't say he is a child, Welty thought - such a cold and ruthless look that looked down on everything and treated any living thing as a dead object would not appear in his eyes even in the most vicious mafia when he was still a child.
"This little boy is most likely Muzan Kibutsuji. At worst, he's his clone or something like that." Will Emperor said to his companions who came over. After thinking for a moment, he added, "A creature like him wouldn't let someone he's not familiar with sit in an important position, not to mention that this Ghost King is so worried.
"So..., the only one who can sit in this position is a close one, or in other words, it can only be Muzan Kibutsuji himself." Colanillo understood the meaning of Willy's words.
"It seems that he wants to gradually take control of these territories in this way." The green-haired man adjusted his glasses and watched the video again.
"But what's he doing in the Flower Street?" The player felt something was wrong. "Did he go there to spread ghosts? How can we find him?"
In a place like Huajie, where all kinds of people mix and the flow of people is dense, it is perfectly normal for a few people to disappear occasionally. No one would bother to investigate - the cannibals are just like fish in water here.
"How about focusing your attention here?" Feng pointed to the most eye-catching photo in the stack of photos that Dushe brought back - it was a silhouette of the most beautiful courtesan recently selected in the flower street.
"The great hide in the forest, the small hide in the city." Feng said, "Besides, don't you think the timing is a bit too coincidental?"
"It seems that we are not the only ones looking for a way to eliminate the Demon King Muzan Kibutsuji, but Muzan Kibutsuji is also aware of our existence." Familiar footsteps and voices were heard from the door.
It's Reborn!
Reborn leaned against the door, his right hand in his pocket, his legs crossed, and the top hat on his head obscured most of the expression on his face.
"Chaos." The man suddenly appeared and greeted his companions.
"One good news and one bad news, which one do you want to hear first?"
"Reborn, long time no see." Feng Qingxiao nodded.
"Mr. Reborn, long time no see!" The player greeted him like the wind, and then asked curiously, "What news did you say?"
"It means exactly what it says. Which one do you want to hear first?" Reborn said.
"Then let's hear the bad news first." Lal Mirchi also came over.
"The bad news is that the presence of cannibals has become more widespread. It's more than twice as bad as the day we arrived in Japan."
Reborn found a chair and sat down, leaning his hands on the back, looking a little lazy. "Combined with the clues you've gathered, it's certain that besides subordinates of the same level as Bourentaro, the Demon King has at least nine more, and their levels are unknown."
"At least nine..." Lal Milch fell into thought. "Although from our last experience, the Ghost King's men are not difficult to deal with, but if they disperse, it will inevitably divide our forces..."
"No, if anything unexpected happens, Muzan Kibutsuji will definitely gather all his subordinates to stay with him. His subordinates will also fight to the death to protect him." Reborn's tone was very certain.
"The demon king Muzan Kibutsuji, who infects humans with his blood as his subordinates, will disappear once he dies."
"What's the good news?" the player asked.
"The good news is that the swordsmiths at Sunforge Village just told me that the Sunwheel Blade we asked them to forge has been completed and is now waiting for us to claim it." Reborn looked at the others and asked, "Do you want to go over now?"
"So fast?" Emperor Weil asked with some doubt, "It's only been about five days, right?" Is the speed of forging a sword so fast?
"I know that!" the player said. "Auntie Mae-yashiki mentioned this when I went to water her flowers."
"It was Coast-kun who told them that our group could only stay for about a week, so they wanted them to use a special forging method to speed up the forging time of the blade."
"So, the blade that originally took ten to fifteen days to forge has been reduced by at least half thanks to the precious ore and special forging techniques."
"As for the fact that it was forged in five days, maybe they processed it?" said the player.
"Okay! Answer completed!"
"You're quite cool, Aurora." Scarlu couldn't stand his easily offended mouth. After listening to Aurora's explanation, he moved closer to the black-haired girl and said loudly, "You're so free that you're watering other people's flowers."
"Why should I be out in the wind and rain and worry about being eaten by cannibals!"
"Stop making so much noise, you errand boy." The player mercilessly stepped on the instep of the mouthy Scarlu, causing him to cry out in pain. "How dare you say I'm having fun in Sunforge Village? Don't think I don't know that most of the work you do outside is done by bribing others, so you can find a place to have fun!"
"What? How do you know? Aaaaaa, stop, I just need to shut up--, Aaaaaa!"
…
…
"Let's go to the forge." Lal Milch ignored the bloody scene around him and walked out first. Judging by her personality, Scarlu's unruly nature deserved a good beating. Now that someone was taking action, it was a good thing.
"Wait for me, Lal!" Colonillo hurriedly stretched out his hand and followed Lal Milch.
"Then I'll go and take a look too." Willdi glanced at his computer, then at Scarlu, ignored Scarlu's look for help, and decisively ran out with the computer in his arms.
"I'm also very curious about the new weapon." Feng behaved politely, but left the house very quickly.
As for Viper, he disappeared from the room long after Aurora finished explaining, and should be at the door of the swordsmithing room now.
"Okay, let's go too." Reborn said, waiting for Aurora to deal with the talkative Skarluk.
"Wait a moment!" The player grabbed Scarlu's clothes by the back of his neck and dragged him forward. "Okay, let's go."
"Actually, you don't have to worry about him. Scarlu's self-healing ability is very strong, so strong that even I, the owner of the clear attribute Death Flame, am amazed." Reborn opened the door for Aurora and motioned her to go first.
"Didn't you beat him up just now? Why do you want to take him with you now? He will go there by himself when he wakes up." Reborn glanced at Skarluk who was obviously pretending to be dead.
"That's true, but I didn't use much force." The player, realizing that Scarlu was playing dead, smirked. "Wouldn't it be nice to embarrass Scarlu like this? How dare he say I was relaxing in Sunforge Village?"
"I've made good use of every minute of these five days, okay?"
Players who get up at six o'clock and alternately do daily tasks, random tasks, skill improvement tasks, etc. until twelve o'clock in the morning before going to bed are now extremely angry.
Because of the boundless anger in her heart, the flames behind her were burning fiercely, and her eyes became extremely bright.
"If I don't make you socially devastated and speechless in front of your minions, you're just a mere Skarlu, I'd be letting down my efforts these past few days!"
"Just wait and see! Let you who are pretending to be dead now see the results of my past few days!" The player ran forward with such a tall and handsome man.
Skalu, who was playing dead but couldn't escape, said: ...!!! Reborn, help me!
Reborn, who was left behind by Aurora: ... Good luck to you, you errand boy.
