Rebirth of Japan's Sekiro Legacy

Chapter 278 The Critical NO.13 Squad

Ten minutes later, a search and rescue team consisting of three people was ready to go.

"Attention." Akira Nakazawa said to them, "just now the positioning system found their location again, they are still in Aokigahara Tree Sea, but they have moved a bit from the original location, so be careful, although most monsters are stupid, but among them There are also some clever ones. The policy of this operation is not to fight, even if the team members are found, as long as they behave strangely, you will flee, and there are many exorcists stationed in the West Lake area to meet you."

"Why did you send us a team?" the last man in the team asked Nakazawa.

"Because, this is the most efficient way, and...the casualties are the least." Akira Nakazawa patted them on the shoulder, "In short, the signal source of the No. 13 team is still moving, and one team is enough to follow."

The man understood that Akira Nakazawa was worried about an ambush, so he only sent a small team, which was to keep the casualties to a minimum.

There are countless monsters on Mt. Fuji, the enemy is dark and we are clear, if attacked in an unknown environment, it will cause a lot of casualties, but if only one team is sent, then even if something happens, it will only be them and the No. 13 team that will die That's all.

"Okay, let's go now." Mizumoto Saina said.

"Well, remember to send a signal every half hour." Nakazawa Akira said, "Ebina, you should also be careful, don't use that power indiscriminately."

"I understand, President." Ebina nodded.

After leaving the hot spring hotel, Sana Mizumoto and her team embarked on a journey to find teammates in the dark.

They are now located near Lake Yamanaka at the northern foot of Mount Fuji.

There are five lakes at the northern foot of Mount Fuji. From east to west, they are Lake Yamanaka, Lake Kawaguchi, Lake West, Lake Shojin and Lake Motosu.

Team No. 13 is located in the sea of ​​trees in Aokigahara next to the West Lake. It will take some time to get there. They have to pay attention to the movement around them on the way. If they encounter monsters, they can only return.

Walking on the road, Mizumoto Saina took out a bottle of potion.

"What is this?" Ebina asked curiously.

"I made the potion myself." Mizumoto Saina said, "Don't look at me like this, I was a person who studied in the clock tower before."

"The clock tower?" Ebina's eyes lit up, "Is it the clock tower of the Magic Association?"

"Well, but I don't have any talent for learning magic, so I learned some pharmacy." Mizumoto Saina said, "This is an owl potion, which can make people see things at night."

Although the Exorcist Association's equipment library is equipped with night vision devices, the number is limited, and in special times, even if they want to get another batch of night vision devices, it will take some time.At present, almost all the night vision devices owned by the association are allocated to the night watch exorcists, because there must be no mistakes in the encirclement line, which is why three exorcists with strong nighttime mobility are needed to find the No. 13 team.

"Wow, that's amazing!"

"Can you have some too?" Mizumoto Saina said and took a sip, "But the taste is not very good."

Ebina took the potion and took a sip, feeling that the darkness in front of her eyes was dispelled, and everything could be seen clearly.

Seeing Ebina's expression, Mizumoto Saina knew that her potion had worked.

"Looks like you're lucky, the potion works for you."

"According to your statement, some people will be ineffective if they drink it?" the taciturn man in the team said.

"Of course, everyone's physique is different, and the amount of raw materials used to prepare the potion will also be different. If I prepare a strengthening potion, the specifications are based on a strong man. A strong man will be fine if he drinks it, but a person who is as skinny as a firewood will drink it. If you take this potion, the consequence is that you may not be able to withstand the potion and die."

Ebina turned pale with fright.

"But don't worry, the owl potion is not very toxic. Even if it is given to children, it will only cause a fever and diarrhea for a few days." Mizumoto Saina comforted Ebina.

"Not a bite?" she said to the man.

"No, I can see in the dark." The man said, "My family's blood allows me to see in the dark."

"That's fine." Mizumoto Saina said to Ebina, "Use your nose to pay attention to the smell around you."

"Ok."

"Let me see...the signal source of Team 13 is still there, they stopped, probably resting," Ebina said.

"It's also possible that they were hunted down by monsters and hid." The man said.

"It's best to get lost. It's easy to get lost in the forest of the Aokigahara Sea of ​​Trees." Mizumoto Saina gave the man a white look, "Go ahead and be careful, don't be attacked by surprise."

... * ...

In a hot spring hotel, in a small Japanese-style room.

"What do you want to see me for?" Akira Nakazawa asked while sitting on the tatami.

"I'll go too." Wu Yi Yizhi whispered softly.

"No, a team has been sent. We will not send more manpower to search and rescue Team 13 until dawn tomorrow." Akira Nakazawa refused without hesitation.

"I'm afraid we won't be able to wait until tomorrow." Wu Yi Yizhi said, "It's easy to get lost in the sea of ​​trees in Aokigahara. The special magnetic field there will make the compass invalid. There is mist... but the positioning system on the team members has not failed, even if they lose their way in the forest, they can still rely on the positioning system to locate us and find the correct direction."

Akira Nakazawa let out a long sigh: "You're right. The reason why they didn't come back is more likely because they were hunted down by monsters and the communication system was damaged. Complex terrain and vegetation to avoid hunting."

"But the monsters have occupied Mount Fuji for a long time. It is impossible for them to have not explored the terrain around Mount Fuji." Wu Yiyi put down the teacup, "It is only a matter of time before the No. 13 team is found, and the team you sent will be killed." The magic you set up confuses."

"As expected of you." Akira Nakazawa smiled, "The news that the 13th team did not return at sunset quickly reached me, and I had to send someone to find them, even if it was only a token. Decades ago , in the night war of ghosts that your grandfather participated in, in order to find out the attack route of the exorcists, some monsters specially captured ordinary people to lure the exorcists to rescue them... Later, the exorcists were fooled, captured, and got information. That's why the exorcists suffered so many casualties afterwards."

"But there is no valuable information on Team 13."

"That's right, it's true, but the monsters don't think so." Akira Nakazawa said, "The fate of Kishimoto and the others may be to be tortured and killed after being tortured. The most valuable information obtained by the monsters may be ours." work schedule."

　Today is the third watch, and the third watch is estimated to be between one and two o'clock.
