"How are demons born?" Inside the car, Kuwako held her knife and asked with a frown. She had just entered middle school, but she already had the spirit of science.
"How are demons born? Science can't explain it, but many people think it's related to the human heart. " The car drove steadily. Kuwako looked at her with a smile and nodded approvingly. She opened the small fridge and poured a glass of wine for Pei Zi Yun. She shook her head and smiled. "This is human thinking. In my opinion, it's related to the spirit of heaven and earth. What do you think?"
"I haven't thought about this." Pei Zi Yun took a sip and complained. "But if resentment can make one a demon, then our world would have long become hell."
Every time there was a war, hundreds of thousands of people died. Even if society progressed, there would always be people who became victims.
Resentment could make one a demon, and the world was no longer what it was now.
At this time, the destination was close. Kuwako smiled and did not continue the discussion. She was a deity with keen senses. She could sense the turbulent demonic aura of the Watanabe building. As the car approached, her senses became clearer and clearer.
The other two also had the same senses, but when they got out of the car and saw the situation of the building with their own eyes, they couldn't help but be shocked.
Clusters of air that were as black as ink coiled around the entire building like snakes, layer after layer, wrapping the building tightly. One could even see giant skeletons letting out soundless roars from time to time in the black air, as well as many faces that were crying and howling in desperation and struggling in the black air to no avail.
Pei Zi Yun stood there. The slender youth raised his head and looked calmly at the building shrouded in demonic aura. He had experienced several worlds. Not to mention the terrifying demonic aura and bloody aura of a great demon, he had seen even more ferocious and terrible scenes.
Pei Zi Yun's eyes finally fell on the top of the building. It was a vortex that ordinary people couldn't see, and it was slowly getting bigger.
However, although ordinary people couldn't see the vortex of demonic aura, the police standing nearby felt a kind of creepy feeling. This was the instinct of ordinary creatures to sense danger.
"It's a sacrifice, a sacrifice to the distant shore." Kuwako only took a glance and her expression changed slightly. Even a deity like her could feel the horror in the building, and even a trace of fear emerged.
This was no longer pure demonic aura, but mixed with an even more terrifying unknown power. Something was currently responding to this, and the "door" was already gradually taking shape.
This was the 'door' created by the sacrifice of human lives.
"There's no one alive inside." Pei Zi Yun retracted his gaze and spoke plainly. Even if he did, he was afraid that the 'door' would have already taken possession of him, and it would be hard for him to escape.
His words shocked the people around him, especially Tokugawa Hisashi, who had just rushed over to welcome him, and his entourage. They looked at the building again in bewilderment.
This was especially true for some of the attendants. Their faces were a bit pale, and they wanted to retreat. After all, 'sacrifice' sounded quite sinister. However, for the sake of their future, for the sake of their responsibilities, they couldn't cower in front of everyone's eyes.
Kanna was probably the one who could understand the conversation between Pei Ziyun and Kuwako Sakato the best among the people present. But even she could only see the phenomenon of the building being wrapped in layers of black gas, but she couldn't see through the phenomenon to see the essence.
When he heard the conversation between the two of them, his complexion darkened.
"Yamada-kun, Miss Kuwako … if it's a sacrifice, even if everyone in the building is sacrificed, they still won't be able to open such a door, right?" Kanna asked with a frown.
Of course, she wasn't just concerned about the hostages in the building. She was worried about whether such a sacrifice would spread to the surrounding areas.
If the unknown demon inside wanted to sacrifice more people, such a situation would be difficult to avoid.
Pei Zi Yun glanced at her and roughly knew what she was thinking. He explained, "Although the demon inside isn't weak, it's only limited to using the building as a place for sacrifice."
"Originally, there weren't enough people in the building, but it seems that they've deceived a lot of people."
Kanna was a little embarrassed that Pei Zi Yun had seen through her thoughts. She couldn't say anything more.
Tokugawa Hisashi's gaze turned cold. He turned back and said, "Investigate the identity of the person who arrived at the building immediately."
Just as he was about to say something, Pei Zi Yun said directly, "Naomi, Kuwako, don't go up. I'll go up and take a look."
As he said this, he walked straight to the entrance of the Watanabe Building. Some police officers wanted to stop him, but Pei Zi Yun's gaze swept across them. They immediately stopped and watched him walk up the stone steps of the building.
But at this moment, someone moved.
"Kuwako!" Naomi's side was empty. She subconsciously tried to grab him, but she didn't manage to catch him. She then saw that Kuwako was already seven or eight meters away, chasing after him.
Her actions were too sudden. Even Yuanzi didn't expect it. When Naomi wanted to follow, Yuanzi pulled her back.
"Listen to Yamada-kun. Don't follow him." Yuanzi shook her head and advised.
In such a short amount of time, the two figures had already disappeared into the building's entrance and could no longer be seen.
Watanabe Building, First Floor
The spacious hall was quiet. The ground was littered with corpses that were still fresh. Most of them were employees in uniform. The thick smell of blood in the air was nauseating.
A female employee with the name "Kumamoto" on her chest was lying on her side. Her face was full of fear and disbelief. Pei Zi Yun looked straight ahead and walked towards the stairs.
It wasn't a wise choice to take the elevator at this time.
Pei Zi Yun was also curious about what kind of trap was waiting for him.
From afar, the stairs looked normal. There weren't even any corpses on the ground. It was clean and tidy. But the moment he stepped into the area of the stairs, a thin fog appeared around him. The fog gradually became thicker.
"Small tricks."
"If it's only at this level, then I'm really disappointed."
"Or is this just the appetizer?"
Pei Zi Yun didn't need to look around. He could already scan most of the area. Because of the strange resistance, he couldn't see the entire building in front of his eyes. But it was impossible for them to launch a sneak attack on him.
"Divine power?"
"No, no, it's the tentacles that penetrate deep."
"This is the first time I've felt so clearly. It's the mouth of the other world." Pei Zi Yun laughed. He was willing to come in because the other party saw him as prey. Similarly, he saw the other party as prey. As for who was the prey and who was the hunter, it all depended on the abilities of both parties.
Now, who would he summon?
Pei Zi Yun was looking forward to it. Killing the three demons was his mission, but it didn't have to be the specific three. There were other sacrifices, as long as they were of a certain amount, it would be fine.
Just as Pei Zi Yun reached a staircase, a 'person' suddenly jumped up and pounced towards him from a corner. A foul stench assaulted his nostrils.
"Pu!" Before Pei Zi Yun could make a move, Yazi had already caught up and chopped it down.
Pei Zi Yun knew that this little brat wouldn't listen to him and wasn't surprised. He looked at the decapitated corpse in front of him. "This is a zombie. From the looks of it, this place is about to become a normal world."
It was obvious how strong and chaotic the aura here was. It was strong enough to blur the boundaries between the two worlds.
"Yazi, since you've caught up, let's kill them." Pei Zi Yun said to Yazi as he retracted his gaze from the zombie.
Yazi's eyes flashed with excitement as she immediately replied, "Yes!"
From the top floor of the Watanabe building came a shrill scream.
Nozaki Naomasa's hand had been chopped off, but he didn't seem to notice it at all. He fired at the blade of light. "Pu pu" sounds could be heard. Shutendoji did not advance but instead retreated.
Nozaki Naomasa stood there in a daze for a moment before his waist split into two. Fresh blood and internal organs gushed out as he screamed in pain.
"The power of the gun is not bad." Shutendoji did not continue to chase after the remaining escapees. He frowned slightly as he pointed the blood-stained blade downwards. His two claws rested on the hilt as he lowered his head to look at the ferocious face of the demon. A tinge of frustration could be seen on his face.
The bullet was embedded in his muscles and was ejected from his body.
Big Yue Maru did not say a word as he wiped his weapon.
Tamamo-no-Mae's eyes were slightly closed as if she was resting, but in reality, she was anxiously observing the situation in the building. Suddenly, her eyes opened and she smiled. "He's here."
The three demons knew who this' he 'was referring to.
"Good timing. Let's begin." Big Yue Maru suppressed his excitement as he spoke. If Yamada Shinichi was not so important, things would not have gone so smoothly.
Shutendoji and Tamamo-no-Mae naturally had no objections. They had been waiting for Yamada Shinichi!
"Tell me, why is Yamada Shinichi so important? Is he just a new god? Has he not completely transformed yet? "Big Yue Maru suddenly asked." Is our world willing to put in so much effort to respond to him? "
Tamamo-no-Mae's nine tails faintly appeared behind her. "We don't have to worry about that. We just need to lure Yamada Shinichi to our world and we will have half succeeded."
"The more valuable Yamada Shinichi is, the more likely we will be able to register and the easier it will be for us to gain the forgiveness of the Divine Lord (Tokugawa Ieyasu). After all, we have sacrificed many of the shogunate's lords to complete this mission!"
"That's right. The shogunate has suffered a great loss!" Shutendoji was known as the strongest demon. He truly understood the difference between gods and demons. "So, we must succeed. Let's do it!"
The three big monsters exerted their strength together, and the demonic aura that permeated or was dormant in the entire Watanabe Building was instantly triggered. The 'door' that was originally opened closed at lightning speed, and the vortex above the building also trembled slightly.
"Boom!" The hall was covered with corpses. Their flesh and blood had withered. The souls of the dead were forcibly extracted from the corpses by a force. They screamed as they were sucked away.
Then, the corpses on the various floors of the building all withered instantly. Similarly, the souls that were invisible to the naked eye were all pulled down.
In front of the building, Kuwako Sakato's face darkened. Kanna was shocked. Pei Zi Yun who was walking up suddenly stopped. Kuwako seemed to have sensed something and looked around.
"The aura here has changed greatly."
"My guess was wrong. It's not trying to summon something. It has another purpose."
At this moment, Naomi felt like she was hallucinating again. In an instant, the reality that only a few people could see appeared in front of her. She had a premonition that made her scream. "Not good, Kashi-chan. The Chang Shi inside isn't entering our world. He's quickly retreating."
"He wants to leave with Yamada-kun …"
"Quick, quick, we must stop him!"
