The monsters around the attic were no match for Liu Xia. After clearing out all the monsters in the surroundings, the five of them quickly entered the attic and walked up the stairs, one floor at a time.
After Caster was defeated, there were only three monsters left on the other side, the last hero swordsman, the female ninja who was a mechanical doll, and the last Warlock himself.
"Is there really no living person here?"
On the way up, Tachika Fujimaru was also paying attention to the signs of life in the illusory castle, but in any case, she couldn't see a living person.
Not to mention the source of the evil energy outbreak in this Tianshou Pavilion, the samurai and servants in the attic must be the first to turn into monsters. Even if they didn't turn into monsters, they definitely died in the hands of their companions who turned into monsters.
Even if one or two people survived, they couldn't survive under the bombardment of Ryuga's ultimate attack. It was impossible for the other side to use the enchantment to save the innocent passers-by.
"Tachika, are you okay?"
On the way up the stairs, Musashi asked Tachika Fujimaru behind him, "Your body hasn't fully recovered yet, it's better not to force yourself."
The attic itself was only four or five stories high, but the attic was full of evil energy. The evil energy was so strong that it almost formed a substance. People would feel a strong sense of oppression when they were in it. Their body was as heavy as lead, and even their heart and lungs seemed to be hung with a layer of iron lock, making it very difficult to breathe.
Of course, this kind of oppressive feeling had little effect on servants. It was nothing for Musashi, a swordsman who was born with great strength and strong physique, but for Tachika Fujimaru, an ordinary person in a very weak state, the burden was not ordinary.
"It's okay, I also have a skill to resist poison."
Although Fujimaru Rika was panting slightly, her pink lips were moving up and down, her small chest was heaving up and down, and sweat was seeping out of her smooth forehead, she was not in any serious condition. It was as if she had just gone through a sprint.
"I know my body very well, this is nothing. Let's hurry up, Kiyohime is still waiting for us."
She shook her head and didn't say anything. She just followed behind them and headed to the top floor of the loft.
…
Earth Qi City's Heavensguard Pavilion had a total of three floors and three eaves. Including the basement level where the cellar was located, there were four floors and three eaves. Including the stone platform that served as the foundation, it was more than thirty meters tall.
Because they had already been here once, everyone was familiar with the place. Soon, they arrived at the top floor of Tianshou Pavilion.
Although it was said to be the top floor, it actually referred to the upper level of the three floors. This upper level was divided into two parts. The lower part was the main body, which was wider, and the upper part was the eaves of the attic, which could be used for overlooking, which was slightly narrower.
As soon as they arrived at the top floor, before they could head to the top floor, they noticed two figures waiting for them there.
One of them was the culprit who took Kiyohime away, a black-haired woman wearing a tight ninja suit. Although she was essentially a mechanical puppet, she had the same appearance as a human.
The other person was the last one, who was still shrouded in a black cloak. His figure couldn't be seen clearly, only a sharp sword qi was hidden around his body.
"You're actually waiting here?"
The moment she saw the cloaked man, Ryuga raised her eyebrows slightly, and took the initiative to step forward, holding Katana and Katana in her hands.
"But it's good, this way, I don't need to worry about being disturbed."
Looking at his appearance, it was clear that he wanted to fight the cloaked man, and listening to his description, he probably had this idea for a long time.
"I'm not looking for you."
The cloaked man's figure was slightly stagnant, he seemed to be a little surprised to be targeted by Ryuga, but he immediately refused Ryuga's request.
"I know, you're looking for Musashi, right?"
Facing the cloaked man's refusal, Ryuga was not surprised at all. Instead, she said what the cloaked man was thinking, making the cloaked man's body suddenly trembled, and he didn't say a word.
"But now you have no right to refuse. Now you're not choosing the opponent, but I'm choosing the opponent."
Ryuga raised the Katana in her hand and pointed the tip of the Katana directly at the cloaked man, "And, don't you want to avenge your lost arm?"
After Ryuga said this, the attic fell into an indescribable silence for a while.
"Huh? What? "
Musashi looked at Ryuga, and then looked at the cloaked man, blinking his eyes. "Why am I the target? What's the deal with my lost arm? "
"My lost arm … Huh, is that right, the assassin at that time, was it really you?"
The cloaked man snorted coldly, then took off the cloak on his body, revealing his true face that had been hidden all this time, "And you've already seen through my identity, how wonderful."
Under the cloak, it was the face of an old man who was nearly seventy years old, wearing a loose black and gray samurai suit. His silver-gray short hair was as energetic as ever, and his cold eyes hid a trace of unknown passion.
"Yagyuu Danma Shou!?"
Musashi's eyes widened, and his face was full of surprise, "So the last Hero Swordsman is actually this Sword Saint old man?"
"How is that possible, isn't Yagyuu Danma Shou a living human?"
Tachika Fujimaru couldn't help but ask in disbelief, "Is he not a human, but a servant?"
"No, according to Sheba's observation, there is no doubt that he is a living human, and there is no Spiritual Base reaction."
Holmes's figure appeared on the light screen again, and he speculated thoughtfully, "If he is really a Hero Swordsman, then there is only one answer – he buried himself in the Killing Legacy as a human!"
"That's right."
Yagyuu Munetsugu had no intention of hiding anything and admitted it very frankly. He said with his usual cold demeanor, "I did accept the Killing Legacy as a human, and the reason for doing so, Musashi, is because of you."
"Eh? Do I have that much face? "
Hearing this, Musashi's face revealed an embarrassed expression, but she immediately reacted, "Wait a minute, you should have been a dormant esper before I came to this world, right? If you really have something to do with me … Could it be … "
"That's right, could it be?"
Yagyuu Munetsugu snorted coldly, "Half a year ago, you suddenly appeared in front of me and provoked me. As a result, during the battle with me, you used some kind of witchcraft and escaped before my eyes. Since then, Sword Saint Yagyuu Munetsugu has ceased to exist.
"The only one who survived that battle is the current Sword Ghost, Yagyuu Munetsugu."
