Confrontation
Although the curser's activities and strength level can be seen from the account registered on the website, and even most of his life can be guessed, Feng Zaoche still remained silent in accordance with the principle of saying less and making fewer mistakes.
He realized more than ever how convenient it was to be able to communicate through his heart at 920.
Feng Zaoche hurriedly counted all his life-saving props one, two, three, four, and five, and felt that although they looked very reliable, they might not have a chance to be used in actual combat.
He first took the TOP1 of the life-saving props, and a watch appeared silently on his wrist.
This could be said to be a chance to save his life in exchange for his yang life. After Feng Zaoche drew it, nothing good came out of the mall for a whole month.
After the car arrived at the destination, Fushiguro Shigeki did not seem to intend to walk with them, but just carried Tenuchi Riko's body into the building in front of them.
Kong Shiyu was responsible for keeping an eye on him, and did not forget to inquire about the more specific details.
"It's not difficult at all. I didn't even have a fierce fight with him." Feng Zaoche had a bit of an occupational illness and put his left fist against his lips. "That face is not mine. It's not hard to tell."
"This is Feng Zaoche, a third-year student at the Jujutsu High School. He seems to have a good relationship with the two of them. After all, if I had been forced to take on a year-long mission, I would have killed him impatiently long ago and would not have allowed him to jump like that. I heard that he has some connections with the top leaders of the Jujutsu Society. This is really..." Kong Shiyu laughed and shook his head.
This is the result of the deviation caused by looking at the problem from different perspectives. For example, the senior management generally believes that he is a flatterer who obviously hates the sophomores but still tries to catch up with them for the sake of academic performance. The sophomores think that he is an open spy anyway, so they might as well keep him around to avoid the trouble of replacing him with someone they don't know.
Feng Zaoche had originally intended to tarnish his image, but when he heard him evaluate himself in this way, he not only did not feel offended, but even felt a mysterious joy that his work had been successful.
"Yes, Geto thought he couldn't hurt himself, so I entered his room under the pretext of coming to support the mission and took the opportunity to attack him. As for the specific details, I think it is better to keep my skills as secret as possible during peacetime. I'm sorry." Feng Hayate said frankly.
"It seems that you are well-informed. You even know something as trivial as Xia Youjie's attitude towards him." Kong Shiyu patted his shoulder and laughed twice. "You might be suitable to be a contact person!"
Kong Shiyu didn't trust him.
It's not that he trusts him as a companion. They were strangers to begin with, and their relationship involved interests, so there was no such thing as trust. Rather, he still didn't believe that he could deal with Geto Suguru.
There's no way. The cursers who took the mission are rubbish one after another.
The only good thing is that even a curser would not show off his own magic skills in public. Before Kong Shiyu finds out the real magic skills of the owner of this face, he can just pretend that this magic skills is his own.
"The role of a contact person isn't suitable for me. I'd rather be the one who carries out tasks. I don't like dealing with too many people." These were the real words from the heart, and Feng Zaoche said them with great sincerity.
"So that's the case. What a pity. Let's talk about it next time if there is a chance." Kong Shiyu said politely.
The two of them fell silent for a moment. Feng Zaoche leaned back on the chair with his arms folded across his chest, his eyes moving to the right: "Why has he been gone for so long?"
"Probably there have always been conflicts between those who make money and those who do things since ancient times, so there will always be some extra talk." Kong Shiyu said with a smile.
This question was indeed a bit nonsensical. Fushiguro had only been gone for less than five minutes, but Kong Shiyu answered it calmly. The more he asked this, the more restless Feng Zaoche became.
Fortunately, although he didn't learn many useful spells in the past two years, he learned facial expression control very well, otherwise he might not be able to help but look at certain people with a look of suspicion.
It took about two or three minutes for Fushiguro Shinji to come back. He looked unusually relaxed, and he didn't look like a worker who was asking for money, but more like a creditor who came to collect debts.
Before Feng Zaoche arrived, he was afraid that the phone might reveal something, so he had already changed the notes of some suspicious people.
【To cousin】:
[Do you remember the two stores you and your friends visited before? I happened to pass by there when I was out for work, and I didn’t expect that there was a chain store open there. I wanted to bring you souvenirs when I went back, but considering work issues, I probably won’t go back so soon.]
【From cousin】:
[That store is quite large, so it's not surprising that it has a chain store. You have to be busy with work, and I'm just sitting around doing nothing. I'll pick you up nearby later. If you move quickly, you might even be able to make it in time for dinner.]
"Are you messaging your family?" Kong Shiyu asked.
"I guess so," Feng Zaochetsu gave an ambiguous answer.
Hearing their conversation, Fushiguro Shige let out a vague snort of laughter, and no one knew what he was thinking.
In fact, after handing over Riko Tenuchi's body, he no longer had any vested interests with these two people.
But neither Kong Shiyu nor Fushiguro Shiji had any intention of letting him go. It can even be said that when Feng Zaoche first thought of this path, he had already made plans to retrieve Tenuchi Riko's body.
The realization of losing everything is not so easy to do. At least he has to maximize the value of these savings before he will be satisfied.
Greed is a bad quality, but there is no doubt that both of them have some unspeakable plans in their hearts at this moment.
"Qian, please tell me the time and method of calling. I have things to do later and I don't have any interest in waiting here any longer." Feng Zaoche said straight to the point.
It didn't really matter whether he took the 30 million yen or not, but since he had come before these two people under the pretext of completing the mission, he couldn't waver.
"There's no rush as to the method and time of transferring the money." Fushiguro Shinji spoke slowly.
"How about this 30 million yen? If you can satisfy me, I can give you a share of the mission bonus."
Kaze Hayateru: “…”
Is your share of disability compensation or funeral expenses?
If he was beaten to the point of losing limbs, would Glass's reversal technique be of no use in saving him?
After carefully thinking about the possibilities of these two questions, Feng Zaoche knew that he could only give an affirmative answer, otherwise, the other party would most likely take direct action.
In a trance, he recalled the high school training ground one day.
After being pinned to the ground after another attack, Feng Zaoche couldn't help but feel a little deflated. He didn't know if it was too easy for him to recover from his sick body, which made him always want to dream about more things.
For example, one can quickly improve physical skills without leaving any obvious shortcomings.
Most people can't help but want more.
"Won't I have a headache when I meet athletes with good athletic skills in the future?" Feng Zaoche pressed his forehead, and simply leaned against the tree with his hands on the ground.
"It may not necessarily be a bad thing." Xia Yujie sat directly next to him.
Feng Zaoche turned his head and said: "What?"
"What you did at the beginning was... Never mind. Why should I be polite to you? You're just trash. At least you look presentable now." Xia Yujie had a look on his face as if he was reminiscing about the past. Those who knew him would know that he was thinking about Fuzaite from a few months ago, while those who didn't would think that he was reminiscing about something that happened more than ten years ago.
"Thank you, I don't feel comforted." Feng Zaoche replied.
Summer Oil: "You're welcome."
"You yourself said that you have many means to save your life, but the means will be exhausted. On the premise of being able to survive with a healthy body, if you meet an enemy with high physical skills, you still have to risk your life. And I will definitely hold back when fighting you." Getting back to the point, after a few words, he returned to the serious topic.
Feng Zaoche understood what he was trying to say: "You mean, let me get used to this extreme way of fighting."
"Nothing is more training than actual combat. In desperate situations, some potential that should have been stimulated but has not been activated may have the possibility of breaking out." said Xia Yujie.
"But I would rather not encounter this possibility even once in my lifetime. What if I lose my life by a little carelessness?" Feng Zaoche still cherished his life very much. After all, he had already died once.
However, both of them knew that this line of work was a typical one where you never know which will come first, tomorrow or an accident. Only a few people can escape the world of curse safely, and many more people, even some geniuses, fail halfway and never have the chance to move forward.
When they received the text message, they should have realized that they had encountered a situation that they could not handle.
Fuu Hayateru had previously sent the meeting place to Kagome Ken, but now their location has moved. If he simply waited for them to arrive, he estimated that the bodies would be cold.
Coming out of his memories, Feng Zaoche understood something.
Under the premise that Riko Tenuchi's body really exists, they have to start considering the possibility of successfully killing Geto Suguru, but a person's strength can be seen from the surface.
Although he was unhappy, Feng Zaoche felt that in the eyes of Fushiguro Shigeki, he was simply flawed in every way. He must be suspecting that he had some powerful technique that helped him to successfully suppress Kagome Jie.
Regardless of whether he was killed or not, at least Tenuchi Riko was killed by him, and this is an established fact.
所以呢,試探他的術式到底如何有什麽意義,風早徹嘆了口氣,決定暫時不順着這條錯誤的邏輯繼續走下去了: “可以。”
總不能就這樣被看輕了去。
孔時雨貼心地已經為他們找到了一塊空地,風早徹下車。
伏黑甚爾的姿态甚至稱得上有幾分悠閑,雙方擺好架勢後,風早徹動用了許久未曾用過的,屬于他的基礎術式。
“你會失去體術有關的所有加成,相對應的,你身體裏将會存在咒力……”為了防止出現什麽意外,風早徹皺了皺眉,還是多說了一句, “還有術式。”
他清晰無比地見到,伏黑甚爾的瞳孔是實實在在地震了一震,下一秒,他就被迫近的男人一把掐住脖頸,撞上身後不遠處的一棟建築。
後腦勺傳來一陣痛楚,風早徹盡可能使自己冷靜下來,放棄掙紮。
“果然肉體的強度也只是錦上添花。”他咳嗽兩聲。
才剛開局就狼狽成這樣是可以預見的事,不知道對面為什麽殺意突然變大了,但伏黑甚爾要求風早徹同他動手這件事本身的動機就足夠令他無法看透。
系統背包也不到藏着掖着的時候了,風早徹随意挑選一把能用作攻擊的匕首,擡手就要往伏黑甚爾的手臂上紮。
仔細回憶起來,他似乎還沒有同人類發生過這般搏命的戰鬥,但是和咒靈鬥争日久,這時面對起來,竟然心中也沒有一絲一毫的怪異。
伏黑甚爾被迫放開他,啧一聲,換了只手又向他攻來。
可能是認為風早徹的術式需要通過發言使用,他進攻的都是他的面門或是脖頸。
——判斷有了偏差,挑選的解題方法卻行之有效。
風早徹用上對戰夏油傑時候學來的種種技巧狼狽避開,頭腦飛速轉動,才剛啓唇,卻忽地一頓。
注意力高度集中之下,明明有直接感知到鈍器刺入心髒帶來的觸感,風早徹還是沒有太多的痛楚。
他好久沒有受過這樣的傷了,鮮血噴湧而出,
風早徹支撐不住,頹然倒下,但有920的存在,讓他的意識依然能夠保持着清醒。
“未曾聽聞過的術式,難怪你有能夠從他們手底下把那個女孩殺掉的實力。”也不知道是不是風早徹的錯覺,伏黑甚爾居高臨下的眼神中掠過一抹可惜, “想要活下來嗎”
“想還是不想這并不重要,重要的是,我不想要你放過我。”風早徹已經将手表提前撥好,他抓着伏黑甚爾的手, “在詛咒師的網站上發布懸賞,到頭來卻把目标給殺了,你說,這夠不夠讓你臭名昭着”
伏黑甚爾還是一副滿不在意的模樣,他本來就已經手生不少——有些年沒有回歸到這一個世界了,這次接單還只是各方面都比較合适,錢也足夠到位而已,哪裏還會去考慮什麽名不名聲的。
那根本不重要,就算他還打算繼續接單,只要他有強大的實力,有錢又有仇恨對象的家夥可是從來都不缺。
“哈。”風早徹短促地笑了一下, “我這大概又是職業病發作了吧。”
伏黑甚爾好像非常在意他的術式,為了避免出現更多意外的情況,那還是……
他抓住伏黑甚爾的手,将自己往前一送。
“徹——!”
“真是,早點來啊,虧我還……”風早徹回過頭去,見五條悟和夏油傑居然一起趕過來了,微微有幾分驚訝,但他實在無法繼續保持清醒,眼前一黑,就這樣暈了過去。
……
“我認為這件事我們是可以解釋的。”五條悟嚴肅道。
風早徹一言難盡地看着面前的三個二年級,家入硝子不動聲色地往邊上挪了挪。
手表的作用是倒轉使用者的狀态,可以說是逆天的一件道具,可惜一年只能用上一次,且用過一次一個月就不能再從系統商城兌換任何道具,已經兌換出的道具不受影響。
風早徹為了防止拖延太久,一口氣撥了兩個小時。
五條悟和夏油傑将天內理子“喬裝打扮”一番後送回高專,交由兩名一年級負責保護,期間還遇到了夜蛾老師,當然,夜蛾老師假裝沒有認出他們。
這邊暫且能夠放下心來以後,他們立刻出發尋找風早徹的蹤跡,在他發出來的地址附近找尋無果後根據短信內容着手開始調查盤星教據點,終于找到了些許端倪。
可惜還是晚來一步。
風早徹一“死”,所有術式和需要他維持的道具盡數失效,他的面容回歸為真實的模樣,附加在伏黑甚爾身上的術式效果也消失無蹤。
他給伏黑甚爾附加的術式,應該來自那名被他頂替了身份的詛咒師,但伏黑甚爾和他戰鬥,從頭到尾都沒有使用過對方的術式。
這邊動了手還見了血,事情就沒法善了,二人正欲發起追擊,卻見伏黑甚爾盯着地上倒着的風早徹,突然發出一陣大笑。
他什麽都明白了過來。
和五條悟還有夏油傑來往甚密的三年級生,風早徹。
看來不論是他還是孔時雨的猜測不虛,果然所謂的關系不好只不過是一層僞裝。
剛剛的術式施加于他身上,不知是真是假,他的确察覺到了力量在身體內湧動的錯覺,在錯覺之後,他就有一種深深的乏力感,仿佛手上使不了力氣。
可從實際效果來看,似乎也沒有受到多大的影響。
五條悟和夏油傑都在,且狀态不錯,還處于同學被殺了的憤怒之下,不适合再繼續留在這裏。
伏黑甚爾擰起眉,一把拎起身側的孔時雨就要退走。
五條悟和夏油傑哪能眼睜睜地看着他走,但他們不能就放着風早徹在這裏,還沒來得及仔細查看他的狀态。
即使是被刺了要害,或許還有一絲一毫可以從中掙紮的可能性。
他們分作兩路,一路負責追擊,一路負責留下來照看風早徹的狀态。可無論是哪一路都沒有留下好消息,追擊的那一路沒有跟上伏黑甚爾的速度,只做到了使他們受傷,照看狀态的更是……
“我承認我是沒有說過道具的功效,但是一覺醒來發現自己已經頭蓋白布上手術臺的時候真的有一點恐怖了。”風早徹強調道。
“所以原理呢,你用的不是反轉術式,有什麽副作用就先打好招呼吧。”家入硝子已經簡單給他檢查過了,自然知道他在其中運用的手法。
風早徹言簡意赅: “接下來一個月我就是普通人了。”
“比想象中可以接受得多。”夏油傑松了口氣。
負責去追的人是五條悟,他其實本來以為可以将對方順利殺掉的,可居然只是留下了傷勢。
沒有親眼見證過他到底有幾分不清楚,但心底到底還是憋着一口氣。
“正好之後不是要去沖繩嗎,就當是放個假了。”五條悟看見夏油傑閑閑地看了過來, “反正帶一個小鬼也是帶,帶兩個小鬼也是帶。”
“什麽沖繩”風早徹還有些不在狀态, “為什麽你們直接快進到旅游了”
夏油傑解釋了一番。
原來天內理子有說過想去沖繩,當時還沒到他們直接攤牌問天內的意見,問她到底想還是不想和天元融合的時候,考慮到融合之後她即将陷入的境地,五條悟還是做主同意了。
後來,風早徹的橫空殺入打亂了計劃,在接到短信之後,他們就着手準備将天內理子暫時先送回高專,她自己也主動提出直接回去,不想再去沖繩了。
到底是“死了人”,他們也沒有心情繼續說沖繩的事,只是一起勸說天內理子,不能因為這樣的愧疚心理就想着“不如我就這樣和天元融合了”,這樣做才會真正使風早徹的死沒有意義。
人送到校醫室以後,家入硝子發現了些許的不對勁,她認為風早徹還有殘留的生機在身上,但的确說不出口這樣的狀态是活着的人應有的,只能暫時給他蒙上白布放着。
于是時間回歸到了風早徹的醒來。
風早徹聽明白了。
“不,其實我現在也不全是普通人,一些東西,呃,功能,呃,術式,總之還是可以用的,有一個地方,我們必須先要去,把天內喊過來。”別說他現在狀态還好,就是他半身不遂躺在病床上,風早徹也要把這件事給安排得明明白白。
他掀開被子,眼見着就要活蹦亂跳地翻身下床,被一左一右按住。
家入硝子見他這樣,唉聲嘆氣地搖了搖頭,出去替他們叫人了。
“還有,那家夥怎麽樣了。”風早徹問道。
“他和身邊跟着的那個接頭人都受了不輕的傷,最後往人多的繁華區逃竄了。”五條悟說到這裏,不由将後半截話止住。
如果伏黑甚爾停下來打的話,确實會給他造成不小的麻煩,且屆時兩人之中,必須要有一方戰鬥到無法倒下,但他沒有戰意,又分出手把孔時雨給一并保下來,這才比較狼狽。
His expression was so unhappy that it was almost impossible to hide it. Feng Zaoche knew what he was thinking at a glance.
"We will meet again sooner or later. Besides, you are injured now, and there are not many people who can reverse the technique. We might die together while running." He comforted her.
"That's the physical strength of the Heaven and Curse Bond. The probability of not dying is at least 90%." Gojo Satoru said this, and suddenly turned back suspiciously, "You guys, you must know about the Heaven and Curse Bond."
Feng Hayate raised his hands and said: "The general knowledge teacher said it in class. Of course I have heard of it. It is a kind of physique that isolates from the cursed energy and greatly improves the physical strength in return."
"You're wrong. There's also a completely opposite way, which is to use your physical fitness to gain a significant increase in your cursed power." After saying this, Xia Yujie couldn't help but look him up and down.
"What are you looking at?" Feng Zaoche asked sensitively.
"Oh." Like Ieiri Naoko, Kagami Kazuo sighed and walked a few steps away.
"It sounds impressive, but the price of exchanging cursed energy for physical fitness is 0 cursed energy. If physical fitness is exchanged for cursed energy, then the physical fitness will be 0. This is not ordinary..."
Feng Zaoche imagined it and felt that he would probably have to breathe heavily three times after taking two steps.
It's all a bit too extreme.
"So you didn't listen carefully after all." Gojo Satoru grasped the key point.
Kazehaite: "Okay, anyway, what we need to do now... I'll talk about it with Tennai when he arrives. Anyway, I need your help."
Just at this time, Amanouchi Riko and Kuroi Misato also came over.
Feng Zaoche lowered his head to take a look at the cut on his chest. For the first time, he was thankful that the high school uniform was black and there was nothing wrong with it.
"You've come just in time. Next, I want to talk about the follow-up arrangements of the Panxing Cult." Feng Zaoche said seriously, "We can't just leave them alone. They must pay the price for their choice."
