Volume 3 Hello, Eri Chapter 304: Night Food (Part 2)
There was a long, creaking sound like the strings of a erhu as the door of room 101 slowly opened, followed by 102, 103... There were hundreds of doors in the whole circle. They opened very slowly at the beginning, but later on they were like dominoes being pushed down. The series of thudding sounds were like war drums commanding the entire army on the battlefield.
Each door would naturally fall off and fall into the water after being opened, and things coming out of the door would step over the door panels. This made Chu Zihang subconsciously think of the zombie movies he had watched when he was a child, where the thousand-year-old demon king would inevitably kick over the coffin lid when he jumped out of the coffin.
The warrior who walked out of Room 101 was wearing a bamboo hat, armor, a straw raincoat, a samurai sword hanging from his waist, and a red round fan in his left hand. He raised his head, revealing his tall red nose, with a golden light in his eyes, and chanting dragon script like a Buddhist chant.
Caesar's face changed immediately, because he could tell that the man was reciting the word "Kamaitachi"! Chu Zihang's face became even uglier, because he recognized the man's appearance. It was the demon in Japanese mythology, Tengu!
Tengu's group of sickle-tailed beasts suddenly danced wildly in Takamaga-hara and collided with Caesar's group of sickle-tailed beasts. The invisible monsters fought and bit each other with their sharp claws and teeth, and their heads were broken and bleeding. However, the sickle-tailed beasts were invisible monsters, and Chu Zihang could not see them at all. He could only feel that there were countless abnormal wind flows around him, as if many things fell from the sky and disappeared the moment they hit the accumulated water.
The blade-like light rushed straight towards Caesar. It was the dark golden ancient sword that Tengu pulled out from his raincoat, accompanied by a scream between joy and tears. Caesar blocked Tengu's samurai sword with a dictator, raised his leg and kicked Tengu's abdomen. A withered hand stretched out from the raincoat and grasped Caesar's leg bone, then used force to spin and flip Caesar into the waist-deep water, along with the flashlight in his hand.
The water in the Nibelung is truly stagnant water and does not flow at all. Caesar and Tengu fell into the water together, just like a wisp of air being quietly swallowed up. The water that should have been just above the waist, at this moment seemed as deep as the sea.
Caesar held his last breath and fought with Tengu, cutting off the samurai sword in Tengu's hand. However, Tengu reached into his chest with both hands and ripped off two ribs and swung them. His ribs lacked sharpness, but they were strong and hard, like two baseball bats. It took a lot of strength to swing a weapon underwater. Caesar felt that he was about to collapse. Tengu's offensive was still unabated. The ribs brought foam and air waves, and each blow pushed Caesar deeper and deeper.
"Caesar!"
Chu Zihang was about to rush over to help, but he tripped and fell. He looked down, and in the light of the flashlight, a pale hand firmly grasped his ankle, nails digging deep into the flesh and bleeding profusely. The owner of the hand was a young woman, wearing a Japanese-style red dress and black hair. She was lying in the water, not needing to breathe at all. One hand succeeded and the other hand also wiped towards Chu Zihang, intending to pull him into the water and drown him.
This scene reminded Chu Zihang of a Japanese monster, Hashihime. It was a monster transformed from a love-struck woman, lurking by the underwater bridge. If she saw a handsome man passing by the bridge, she would drag the man into the river and drown him, so that they could stay together forever as monsters.
Murasame turned around and cut off Qiao Ji's wrist with a knife. Chu Zihang escaped. Qiao Ji behind him didn't feel any pain at all. Seeing that Chu Zihang was about to leave, she stood up from the water howling like a ghost, waving the bloody bones to continue to demand Chu Zihang's life.
Chu Zihang saw clearly that Qiao Ji's bones were bronze in color. It was not a demon at all, but Deadpool, Deadpool in the form of a Japanese demon.
All kinds of strange sounds were heard from all directions, sounds of joy, sounds of wild laughter, sounds of anger, sounds of complaints, sounds of roars, sounds of joy... None of those sounds could be made by normal humans. The low singing of dragon patterns intertwined with each other, and it seemed as if a group of demons were dancing wildly in the dark and turbulent clouds.
Chu Zihang picked up the flashlight, because the light of the water-immersed thing had dimmed, he could only clap twice, and the light that seemed to be dying suddenly became brighter. He shone the light in the direction of Caesar just now, but there was nothing there. These dead seawater would not produce any waves, and it was impossible to judge the underwater situation like ordinary water surface. He shone the flashlight in the direction where the various sounds were faintly coming from, and hundreds of golden pupils, whether in darkness or light, lit up one after another as if to respond to Chu Zihang.
Hundred-eyed demon, meat man, Tamamonomae, Kyoukotsu, Rinyuudo, Yamakaze, Aoandon, Zashiki-warashi, Gyuto... those well-known monsters in Japanese mythology appeared one by one in front of Chu Zihang. Even Hollywood with the world's top special effects could not capture this feeling. The stench of rotting flesh, the stinging pain in the wind, the chill that penetrated deep into the bone marrow, the feeling of being bound by something on the back, the characteristics and fascinating skills of each monster in the legend were imposed on Chu Zihang without reservation.
He had seen many violent Deadpools before, and those things fully met the terrifying devils in people's imagination. But now, the Deadpools of the past were not even worthy to carry the shoes of these real monsters. This was the real Night Parade of a Hundred Demons, and he had mistakenly entered the monsters' lair.
It seems that the descriptions in various books in Japan at that time were not groundless, but people really saw these monsters in the White King's Nibelung, and various strange stories were passed down through word of mouth. The real One Hundred Demons Night Parade is actually the White King's group of Deadpools!
The wound was bleeding, and scarlet marks appeared on the water surface. The smell of dragon blood excited the ghosts. Each of them could chant dragon script. Some were spiritual words, some were just meaningless interjections, and some were praises to the White King. When the White King died, the Nibelungen world also fell asleep for many years. Now that the White King has awakened again, the long-dormant demons can finally break through the boundary between fantasy and reality and wreak havoc on the world.
Chu Zihang let out a long sigh of relief. A blazing flame ignited on Murasame. Several explosions set off brilliant streams of light in the group of demons, illuminating his face. Killing embryos and beating people never say I am ready. It is the hard truth to strike first.
His undeclared war angered the group of demons. Interlaced black shadows hid in the darkness, and something like a python was stirring underwater. The strong flashlight flashed a few times and finally stopped working. The things in the store were just ordinary civilian standards, and they did not have waterproof and explosion-proof military-grade searchlights like the academy.
The blood explosion was activated, and all the stagnant water that came into contact with Chu Zihang was evaporated into wisps of mist. Without the help of any vision, he could accurately swing Murasame to cut the incoming target, simply because there was unreserved bloody murderous intent coming from all directions.
This was a battlefield that suited him perfectly. There were no teammates, no help, only his own enemies, so he could just swing his sword willfully! Murasame brought up brilliant flames, and his sword splashed with black blood. Chu Zihang stepped on piles of corpses and rushed into the ghosts until his own flames were swallowed by the darkness.
The black motorcycle rushed onto the overpass, its engine roaring like thunder all the way, and the bright beams of its headlights tearing through the darkness like lightning in a dark cloud.
Eri hugged Lu Mingfei's waist tightly, her dark red hair flowing like a ribbon at high speed, while Lu Mingfei hid her head in the motorcycle helmet, concentrating on driving the vehicle that was dug out from the ruins. However, this helmet was obviously designed for sumo wrestlers, and it was a bit too big for her. She had to roll up her hair to fill the space, and tied the strap around her chin twice to fix it.
They entered Nibelungen earlier than Chu Zihang and Caesar, so they were lucky enough to escape from Takamagahara before the cage of the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons appeared. Lu Mingfei was shocked as soon as she came out. The whole world was truly turned upside down. The high-rise buildings in Tokyo actually reversed and appeared above her head. Outside the door of Takamagahara was an elevated road standing on the tide, with black sea water and dark clouds below, and the rain was actually from bottom to top... Considering that she actually wore a close-fitting skirt inside after throwing away her suit, now it felt like taking a shower with her butt sticking up and facing the shower head.
Meiji Jingu Shrine, Tokyo Sky Tree, Ginza, Chidorigafuchi, Tokyo Tower... these famous attractions in Tokyo, Japan now appear on the top of the motorcycle like a combination. The Sky Tree is inserted into the Meiji Jingu Shrine and drags it up. Chidorigafuchi is facing the elevated road, and the cherry blossom petals are black. Things in Ginza occasionally fall out, for example, a box of diamond necklaces hit Lu Mingfei's helmet just now. Tokyo Tower seems to be integrated with a big tree, growing silver leaves and vermilion branches.
Everything is crazy and weird, extremely chaotic yet with a seductive and solemn beauty, making people feel that the creator of this world might be a mad painter, and the things he casually drew on the paint board are like screams. At first glance, it looks like a child's painting, but if you look at it a few more times, you will realize that everything behind that person is distorted along with his painful screams.
The only normal thing is this elevated road. This road seems to run through the entire Nibelungen World. Other traffic routes that originally belonged to Tokyo are now floating overhead, or like gravel dancing with the clouds under the elevated road. The problem is that this only road is not easy to walk on. The curvature is a bit like a roller coaster, twisting like a snake. You may be climbing a steep slope in the first few seconds, and you have to dive 80 degrees in the next second. This is not driving a motorcycle at all, it is playing with your life. Lu Mingfei felt that if he trained in this place for a while, he would definitely become a world-class motorcycle cross-country racer.
"Senior Brother! Senior Brother! Can you hear me?" Eiry held up the intercom and asked Lu Mingfei to shout. Lu Mingfei's throat almost dry, but the rustling sound in the intercom became smaller and smaller, and now it was completely silent.
Lu Mingfei knew what this meant. Now that she had visited Nibelung three times, she would not even be surprised to see such a scene. Radio waves could not pass through Nibelung, even though Chu Zihang might be only a few meters away from her in the real world. The walkie-talkie would only become ineffective due to the interference of the laws of this world.
Eiry's stomach growled, which could not be ignored in this dead silent world. Lu Mingfei stopped the motorcycle on a relatively flat road and turned to look at Eiry. Eiry probably felt that this was not good and was embarrassed to look at her, so she just lowered her head to look at her toes.
Actually, Lu Mingfei was a little hungry. Eiry seemed to have not eaten anything before going to bed, and she had just been playing strip mahjong with a customer and was touched by him. Naturally, she had no time to fill her stomach.
She touched the pocket of her skirt, her eyes lit up, and she took out a few pieces of fruit candy. She probably put them in her pocket when she was packing up things in the store. She didn't expect that she would be out of water and food now.
"One per person! Eat them sparingly." Lu Mingfei handed one to Huili, ate one herself, and put the rest away again.
Eiry slowly chewed the hard-earned fruit candy, and looked into the distance with Lu Mingfei. The black sea was dead silent, and the elevated road stretched infinitely into the boundless darkness. No one knew where it would lead to. It could be an exit, or it could be the abyss.
What should I do now? Lu Mingfei was thinking about a way out. Although she knew this was Nibelungen, this Nibelungen seemed different from the ones she had been to before. Odin's Nibelungen was on a viaduct, while Fenrir's Nibelungen had a subway, and the area was not large. However, Lu Mingfei had been riding a motorcycle for two hours in this Nibelungen, and the scenery in front was still exactly the same. If the things above her head were not really moving and changing, she would have thought she was a hamster that had strayed into a maze and was spinning madly in place.
In the past few days, everyone has been trying to find the traces of Herzog and Tachibana Masamune, but all have come to nothing. Now that the gods have just awakened, earthquakes, volcanoes, and tsunamis have occurred, and now a huge Nibelungen world has appeared. Judging from previous experiences, it is very likely that the gods are actually hatched in their own Nibelungen, so no matter how people search in the real world, it is futile.
However, now that Nibelungen has taken the initiative to appear in front of the dragon slayers, it means that God is trying to invade the real world through here. Lu Mingfei must find a way to find the location of the White King in Nibelungen, otherwise Tokyo will have to face the science fiction movie of the Tyrannosaurus invasion.
The question is how to find things in such a large place? There is only one road in the entire Nibelungen, and the area is probably not less than the real Tokyo. When you find the White King, you may only see two broken eggshells.
