In the middle of the 19th century, when Japan was isolated from the rest of East Asia, the Western countries had already completed their industrial revolution. In order to accumulate capital, they all set their sights on the Far East.
In 1853, four warships from the United States used their cannons to forcefully open the gates of Japan and sailed into the sea of Edo Bay. This incident was later known as the "Black Ship Incident."
The person in power at that time was the 13th general of the shogunate, Tokugawa Ieden.
The following year, Tokugawa Ieden signed a "Japan-United States Treaty of Friendship" with the United States. He used the name of the Emperor to avoid criticism from the whole country.
This incident had a far-reaching impact. Even in modern times, it was still worth writing about. It was almost the beginning of Japan's modern history.
What was left in the fourth seal cage was Tokugawa Ieden's remnant thoughts, which showed his great fear of the Black Ship.
Then, the usual sweet voice comforted Tokugawa Ieden, saying that it was not his fault at all and that there was no need to worry about it.
"Is it really Gamma's doing? Could it be that she used some method to reach into the future? "
Parvati's face was full of headache. She felt very complicated about this.
At present, it seemed that Gamma had indeed used some method to affect the future. She had used some kind of technique on the Tokugawa generals and finally formed these seal cages.
That sweet voice was probably the voice that Gamma had used to lure the generals into depravity.
"Shion, you said before that the material of these seal cages is exactly the same as Big Quinn's, right?"
Ryuga looked at the few seal cages in her hand and her eyes flashed slightly.
"And Big Quinn was rebuilt after breaking down humans and followers into basic Reiki. If the material is the same, then these seal cages should be made of some man-made material. The remnant thoughts left in them are the best proof."
"What?"
"This... I actually didn't think of this!"
As soon as Ryuga said this, everyone exclaimed in unison.
"Wait... wait a minute, could it be...?"
Bureau Chief Haruhi reacted belatedly. His face suddenly became very ugly, and his fists were tightly clenched.
"I'm afraid it's that, Bureau Chief."
Yagyuu Munetsugu also frowned. His Zen mind was fluctuating.
"Although it's hard to believe, I can't help but make a reasonable conjecture — these seal cages were probably made using the Tokugawa generals of the past as materials."
In other words, this seal cage was the general himself.
Jia Mo interfered with the time and space of Tokugawa's past and future. After luring many generals into depravity, he used the same method to break them down and create these seal cages.
"Abominable Evil God! This is no longer something that can be solved by spanking! "
Haruhi's face was full of anger, and he almost charged at Kamo with his weapon.
"No wonder it formed singularities. If left alone, it will indeed have an impact on human history."
Zi Yuan crossed her arms and nodded with a solemn expression.
"Looks like I have to defeat Jia Mo no matter what and rescue the captives!"
The group was infuriated and could not wait to break into the deeper space.
…
On the third underground floor, there was no light coming from the ground. The only light left in the maze were candles and lanterns.
"Oh! The smell of alcohol is so strong! "
As soon as they entered this space, everyone frowned.
The air was filled with the smell of alcohol, spreading into the lungs, causing people to unconsciously become intoxicated and absent-minded.
This smell of alcohol was nothing to Parvati, Yagyuu Munenori, and the others, but to Tachika Fujimaru, who had never touched a drop of alcohol, it was a little unbearable.
She wrinkled her nose fiercely, and her face was full of disgust.
"Alcohol?"
Ryuga did not notice her expression. Instead, she fell into deep thought as soon as she smelled the alcohol.
"The first floor has surprisingly weak maids, the second floor mistook us for generals, and the third floor is filled with all kinds of alcohol … Speaking of which, Jia Mo is the Indian god of love, and when it comes to India —"
"Come, please drink. Enjoy yourself."
While Ryuga was deep in thought, new automaton maids gathered from all directions. All four of them were holding wine glasses, exuding a rich smell of alcohol.
"There are no worries here, and any unhappiness can be eliminated with alcohol. Alcohol is the most delicious thing in the world …"
The maids mechanically held their wine glasses and continuously toasted them.
"Moderate drinking is good for health, but excessive drinking is harmful to the body, and it is not good for children's education!"
Haruhi puffed up her cheeks and muttered unhappily, "What does this evil god think Great Quinn is? This is not a harem where he can do whatever he wants. In essence, it is a sacred place built to create Tokugawa's descendants!"
"None of us are drinking. Please leave. Otherwise, don't blame my sword for not having eyes."
Yagyuu Munenori took the initiative to walk forward. His old body was full of energy, and he emitted a terrifying sword aura. Ordinary people did not even dare to get close to him.
"Please drink, please drink. Alcohol is the most delicious thing in the world …"
However, the maids did not appreciate it and continued to approach.
Clang!
The sharp sword whizzed out, evolving into a sword light that could cut through everything. In an instant, it broke through the dozen maids around them and made them powerless.
"Don't worry, I used the back of the sword."
Facing Tachika Fujimaru's gaze, Yagyuu Munenori responded calmly, making Tachika Fujimaru breathe a sigh of relief.
"However, my touch tells me that these maids have not become stronger. In terms of strength, they are about the same as those on the second floor."
Yagyuu Munenori immediately added.
"About the same as those on the second floor? In other words, only the maids on the first floor are shockingly weak … I see, I understand. "
After hearing Yagyuu Munenori's explanation, Ryuga's eyes moved slightly, as if he had obtained the last fragment. The light of inspiration flashed through his mind, and he instantly sorted out his logic.
"Really? Ryuga Jann, what do you understand? "
Tachika Fujimaru covered her mouth and nose. When she heard this, she immediately looked over in surprise, her eyes full of anticipation. She knew that Ryuga Jann would not let her down.
Everyone else, including Ziyuan and the others in the control room, also turned their attention to this side. Although the School of Killing seemed not to care, they secretly pricked up their ears.
"The maids on the first floor are shockingly weak. Even ordinary magicians can easily defeat them with enhanced magic. If we encounter such enemies in the maze, there is no doubt that we will kill these monsters first. This is the Ring of Killing."
"The maids on the second floor mistook us for generals. However, it was not a mistake. They did it on purpose. This is the original design. As long as we admit that we are generals for the convenience of moving forward, we will commit the Ring of Lying."
"Then there are the maids on the third floor. As soon as we appeared, we directly held a glass of wine to persuade them to drink. There is no need to say what our intentions are. Of course, it is the Ring of Drinking."
