Crown Master

Abe Masahiro's current situation is very bad, and the only thing he is lucky about now is that he didn't let Akane follow, otherwise the situation will get worse.

Pursing his chapped lips, he looked at the barren red soil. There were still some people around, all of them were onmyojis, but on this scorched land, they were just struggling to make ends meet, and their condition was still very bad. Worsening, more and more people are going crazy, and it is not certain how long the remaining people can stay awake.

This barely established stronghold will self-destruct in the next second, and it may not be that the person who did it is the comrade who was fighting side by side just a second ago.

The situation may turn into the worst state at any time, and everyone here will be wiped out.

It's not funny at all, and I can't laugh even if I want to. It's hard to survive, and it becomes normal not to think about what I will be like in the next moment, almost walking side by side with despair.

Can not be done!Can't just give up hope!

"Are you ok?"

Masahiro Abe bumped into the person next to him who was assigned to security work with him to refresh himself. The other party is a well-known onmyoji in the outside world, but he is not like Abe, Tsuchimikado, Hanakain, etc. Inheriting the surname is one of the lone rangers.

Not long ago, they were summoned to a stronghold of Tsuchiyamen close to their own family. The on-site manager was one of the few Tsuchiyamen remaining from the outside world. From these people, it was learned that before the Tsuchyumen clan disappeared, there was an atmosphere of After a while of nervousness, the head of the family abnormally summoned the disciples who were walking outside and asked them all to return to their home.

A few of them did not arrive in time because of an accident. They thought that they would probably be blamed, but when they didn't think about the place, they even disappeared from the house, let alone the people in the house!

A mysterious family that has been passed down for thousands of years suddenly disappeared. This is a big deal. The surviving sons of the Tuyumen used their accumulated connections over the years to summon most of the onmyojis from the dark world in order to crack the "Tuyumen". The Mystery of the Vanishing Door".

No one believed that they disappeared without a trace. There must be a conspiracy brewing here that threatens the whole world!

Just because this argument is too possible, several families of onmyojis including the Tumimen family and the Abe clan sent people over. Gradually, many Onmyojis of big and small families, and scattered Lone Rangers also heard the news, and all gathered together. Gather here.

But no one thought that accidents often happened in a flash. They only remembered that Koki Tsuchimikado was speaking on the stage, and their vision suddenly blurred, and then they appeared on this desolate and infinite scorched earth.

When I opened my eyes, my eyes were red. After a long time, even the spirit of the person is abnormal!

It's just so good, most of the onmyojis are firm-willed, and each has their own means. It is still possible to maintain the critical value of their mental strength, but the most troublesome thing is that there is no food and water in this place!

Relying on the fresh water in the big house transferred here with them will last for about half a month, but the long wait without hope has gradually pushed human nature to the extreme.

Everyone decided not to sit still.

But the first wave of people who decided to go out to explore did not come back.

Then came the second wave...

The missing person disappeared as if swallowed by the land.

Until those who waited could no longer hold on and were about to put all their eggs in one basket, this land attacked them!

Those are black monsters like wolves. They have sharp claws and teeth, as well as strange toxins, and they are almost immortal.

It took about a day for the rest of the people in the big house to struggle to form a line of defense when they came over by surprise, and then there was a long tug-of-war.

No one knew what these monsters ate for a living. They only knew that the corpses that died in their hands would turn into ashes in a very short period of time, nourishing the land.

They are like the killers of this land, specially used to hunt and kill these intruders.

In such a dire situation, people start to stick together, not that there are misfits, but that kind of people can't last so long.

Masahiro Abe counted the time in his head, almost a month had passed, and he didn't know if the flow of time here was consistent with the outside world.

For such a long time, none of the onmyojis present were useless. After several adventures and casting spells, they basically figured out that they were in a small secret realm similar to a forgotten world.

This kind of secret realm is often found in the land that was hidden and taken away by the monster race in ancient times. After the owner of the land died, he lost the protection of power, and everything on the land regained his freedom, but because of hiding for too long, the flow of time is different from the outside world. , so it becomes a special "fragment".

Everything in "Shards" has its own unique rules. Occasionally, people will stray into this kind of place and see all kinds of scenes that are different from reality. Some of these people are lucky enough to come back alive and bring a beautiful Taoyuan According to the legends of the village, some simply died inside and turned into a pile of bones.

No one can judge the specific degree of danger before entering, and they undoubtedly have bad luck, just entering a dangerous and extremely unfriendly bad land!

And it is worth mentioning that this kind of secret realm may not have been opened by accident, and then they were involved. Its appearance is likely to be related to the disappearance of the Tuyumen clan, because some people who went out and came back by luck said that they saw Tuyumen in the distance. The shadow of the royal family's mansion!

Because the shape of the mansion is too prominent, the outline can be seen clearly even if it is far away, so the person who informed this discovery is very confident.

If it weren't for the lack of manpower and the scarcity of food and drinking water, they might have already embarked on the road to the Tsuchiyamon mansion, instead of relying on this big mansion that was about to collapse for their final struggle.

But even so, it won't last long.

Abe Masahiro thought so, he believed that the few people who were discussing in the room thought the same way, and the half-dead person beside him was Sasao Tsuchimikado, whom he met not long ago and had a good relationship with, and it was he who called him. Chang Hao was called on the phone. After the accident happened, he apologized bitterly to Chang Hao. Originally, this matter had nothing to do with Chang Hao, a semi-retired "young man". I didn't expect to put my friend in danger.

Masahiro Abe didn't blame him for this. To put it bluntly, he Changhao grew up in various "accidents" since he was a child. As long as there is no old fox grandpa outside to watch a play like this kind of dangerous environment, he will Be steady, slow, and reckless!

His indifference made many people look at him with admiration. After hearing that his surname was Abe, there were many subtle sights on his body. If he hadn't had to keep people outside, he should be sitting in the room and discussing with those people now instead of Stay outside and be a qualified vigilante.

But at this time, any position is very important, Changhao doesn't mind this, and no one cares.

Everyone was desperately guarding the only remaining water, and finally someone was willing to go all out.

"Eat this!"

He pulled out a piece of meat.

The color is bright, and the blood red one is a bit abnormal, but it is extraordinarily fresh.

No one asked where he got it from. Except for the living, there are not even dead bodies here. The only corpses that will remain are those black monsters.

After swallowing his saliva, someone hoarsely asked, "You want us to eat this?"

"I can't live without eating this!"

That person was also pushed to the extreme, thinking about it, would he be insane enough to dismember the black beast and use its meat as food, would his mental state be fine?

"Are you sure there is no problem? Will there be some curse or something?"

"You don't have to eat!"

The man growled violently.

Tsuchimikado Koki, Abe Ryohei, and Miyoshi Tsuruyuki constitute the backbone of the survivors. Now Tsuchimikado Koki's angry roar has attracted the attention of many people inside and outside the house. He didn't say a word, but when his eyes fell on that piece of meat, his eyes were undoubtedly greedy and longing.

They are too hungry and thirsty, if this continues, there is no guarantee that these people will not attack the same kind around them.

"I don't want to eat people!" Tsuchimikado Hongqi roared angrily: "Then eat this monster, if there is a curse, then kill me after it is safe. I would rather die outside than become this monster." Part of the terracotta!"

Those who were resonated by his words stood up one by one, and Abe Ryohei and Miyoshi Tsuruyuki were silent.

"What to drink?"

The person who opened the door and walked in was called Izumi Tsuchimodo, the only female among the remaining members of the Tsuchimokon clan.

As soon as her words came out, the roaring Tsuchimikado Koki quieted down, and he dug in his clothes, and took out an ancient leather pouch.

"Blood!"

The blood of those monsters!

Eat their flesh, drink their blood, use their stomachs as utensils.

These people are crazy to get out alive!

No one thought that such an accident would happen in a rendezvous. Masahiro Abe was the last one to learn of their decision, but he did not object.

But he asked a friend beside him, "Can you eat?"

Sasao Tsuchimikado cast a weak look at him.

"If you don't eat it, you will die, right?"

Yes, if you don’t eat, you will die. Even if you are cursed, you still want to leave this hell alive.

Looking at this vast and boundless land, but full of deep hatred for life, no life wants to be buried here.

Abe Masahiro made up his mind, and slowly said to the beautiful figure of Akane Dogen in his heart: "I will definitely come back to you."

This short encounter has polished Abe Masahiro from the inside out, making him look like a teenager, but his aura is resolute and resolute, full of the maturity of a man.

In this way, after making up their minds, these people tried their best to prey on those black beasts that regarded them as prey, and then armed themselves with their fur and claws, and ate dried meat made of their flesh and blood. With blood, they set foot on the way to the big house of the Tuyumen clan.

As the scout said, they could see the outline of a building community after walking a certain distance, probably the shape of the tall houses unique to the Tsuchimikado family.

Seeing this scene with their own eyes, most people gradually regained their confidence.

It's not like people like them were suddenly taken into this world without any preparations. The Tuyumen clan brought all the elites here. Rice noodles, grain and oil, and most importantly, three to four springs are usually arranged in their houses.Even if the springs dry up in another place, they will definitely not be short of water for a while.In addition, each of the Tsuchiyamen clan is a master of onmyoji, and they may be cursed after eating the monster's flesh. With the help of the Tsuchiyamen clan to purify, they will still be alive and well if they are saved in the future!

From despair to hope is often that simple.

It's just that Chang Hao looked at the vague outline in the distance, and his thoughts were not so optimistic.

Can things really be that simple?
