Suzu Ito flicked her wrist, and a paper talisman appeared between her fingers. She placed it on the unconscious man's chest.
The paper talisman instantly glowed, and the unconscious man's body began to move again. He stiffly straightened his body and stood in front of Suzu Ito.
[Puppet Talisman], a type of talisman that could grant inanimate objects temporary mobility. It was often used in certain situations to move objects.
Rin Ito activated the Talisman and led the man who was controlled by the Talisman's power to carefully and quickly escape from the surroundings of the Shinjuku branch of the Yin-Yang Hall. They met up with Yin-Yang Hall's Yin-Yang Hall, Yin-Yang Hall, Erica, Liliana, and Lana Linqin, who were waiting on the side. Lana Linqin then carried the man and ran away from the Shinjuku branch until they thought it was safe.
* Plop! * Lana and Linqin threw the man on their shoulders onto the ground.
Chiyama Yomi took out a hemp rope and tied the man's hands and legs together. Then, Erica walked in front of the man, grabbed his collar, and used a small magic spell to wake him up.
"Look at me." Before the man could react, Erica ordered him again with her magic spell.
The man who was affected by the magic spell instinctively looked at Erica's eyes.
After about two or three seconds, Erica let go of the man's collar, stood up, and said, "It's done."
"Now I'll ask, and you'll answer," Erica ordered the man.
"Yes," the man replied.
"What's your name?" Erica started with the most basic questions.
"Jiang Haoyi," the man replied.
"What's your position in the Yin Yang Hall?"
"I'm a member of the 13th Exorcist Squad of the Yin Yang Hall's Shinjuku branch."
"How many Exorcist Squads are there in the Shinjuku branch?"
"Three."
"What's the situation with the members?"
"Each Exorcist Squad has twelve people, and each person is equipped with two mechas, as well as a varying number of man-made ones. Depending on the situation, the number of attack talismans will also vary."
"Wait a minute. What are man-made and mecha types?"
"Man-made Spirit-branded Retainers are created through the combination of Yin-Yang Jutsu and Spirit-branded Retainers. The Mecha Spirit-branded Retainers are created through the combination of Yin-Yang Jutsu and Spirit-branded Retainers."
Hearing this, Suzu Ito, Katsuyama Yomi, and Tsutomu Kagura, who had a deep understanding of Yin-Yang Jutsu, couldn't help but look at each other. They didn't expect Yin-Yang Jutsu in this world to have developed to the point where they could create their own Spirit-branded Retainers. Moreover, it was classified into military and civilian use. This made them curious about the Yin Yang Technique of this world.
"Introduce me to the next Spirit-branded Retainer," Erica ordered.
"Yes," the man replied. He then told her everything he knew about Spirit-branded Retainers.
In this world, Spirit-branded Retainers could be divided into two types: the Active Spirit-branded Retainer and the Artificial Spirit-branded Retainer. Among them, the Servile Type referred to ancient shikigami that existed in the form of spirits such as demons and spirit beasts, while the Artificial Type referred to acquired shikigami that were created according to various techniques. There were five types of shikigami. The Simple Type, Binding Type, Mecha Type, Guardian Type, and Curse Type.
Of the five types of Artificial Type, the Simple Type could be considered a civilian type. No matter if it was the students of the Yin Yang School, the doctors of the Yin Yang Hospital, or the Demon Slayers or Curse Hunters of the Yin Yang Hall, they would all be equipped with a Simple Type. It was a necessity for daily life and combat. Everyone would have a Simple Type. It was also quite easy to obtain.
Starting from the Binding Type, it would gradually become more militarized. By the time it reached the Mecha Type, only the Demon Slayers of the Yin Yang Hall would be equipped with Artificial Retainers. Of course, if you came from a famous family or had some connections, you could also ignore the rules and obtain a Mecha Type. It all depended on whether or not you had the ability and courage to do so.
As for the Guardian Type and Curse Type, the First Type was a type that was used to protect the master. In terms of its nature, it was similar to the Servile Type in normal Yin-Yang Jutsu. The Third Type was a type of tool that would harm others and also severely affect the user. It was similar to Tame Head and Voodoo, which was why the Yin Yang Hall had forbidden its creation.
Of course. Apart from this information, Erica also asked questions about the parts of the man's words that she didn't understand. From this, she obtained quite a bit of information that she hadn't obtained before.
For example, the classification of Yin Yang Techniques.
In this world, Yin-Yang Arts were divided into four categories. Modern Yin-Yang Arts had been simplified by removing knowledge related to the soul. It was recognized by the Yin Yang Hall as having a real effect. In principle, only people who had obtained the [Yin Yang Type I] and [Yin Yang Type II] national qualifications could use the A type of Yin Yang Technique. Other than the A type of Yin Yang Jutsu, the B type of Yin Yang Jutsu, and the B type of Yin Yang Jutsu, which can really affect the cognition of others, and before the Second World War, Tsuchimikado Noguo accepted the request of the military to combine Yin Yang Jutsu, Esoteric Buddhism, Shinto, and other Japanese supernatural curses into one. In addition to his own interpretation, he created an extremely practical and practical Emperor-style Yin-Yang Technique.
Apart from that, he also obtained information about Tsuchimikado Nogukata, who caused the Great Tokyo Spiritual Disaster, and the so-called reincarnation of Tsuchimikado Natsumu, who was declared to have failed but actually succeeded in completing the "Lord's Ritual of Mount Tai", as well as general information about the Zealots and the Twin Horns Association, which was created due to Tsuchimikado Nogukata.
Of course, he didn't miss any information about the Shinjuku branch.
"Tsuchimikado Nogukata, huh …" Erica narrowed her eyes and said.
"What do you guys say, if we control that Tsuchimikado Natsumu, and use her to command the Twin Horns Association, which is opposing Yin-Yang Hall, to attack Yin-Yang Hall?" Erica turned her head and asked the others.
"I'm afraid that you won't be able to command them, and we will become the target of the Twin Horns Association first." Liliana retorted.
"Indeed, if those people are really as fanatical as he says, they might really target us first to protect their king." Erica nodded in agreement.
"Then what if we assist Tsuchimikado Nogukata in completing his awakening, and then seek cooperation?" Yomi suggested.
"That's a good idea, but unfortunately, we don't know anything about Tsuchimikado Nogukata, so it's very likely that we won't be able to do it. Moreover, don't forget, our goal is to obtain control of this world. This goal will likely cause conflict with Tsuchimikado Nogukata, and ultimately make him our enemy. It's very troublesome just thinking about it. "Erica shook her head and denied.
"It seems that Tsuchimikado Nogukata's plan won't work." Lana and Lin Qin said in distress.
"However, it's not like we didn't gain anything." At this moment, Erica suddenly smiled.
"What?" Suzu Ito and the others looked at Erica in confusion.
"In the beginning, we were planning to annihilate Yin-Yang Hall, but we neglected one thing." Erica said confidently, and then after keeping everyone in suspense, she continued, "The government!"
"You mean …" Liliana said with a frown.
"Start with the government?" Suzu Ito continued.
"Yes, since Yin-Yang Hall is an official organization, then its existence must be inextricably linked to the current government. This can be concluded from the fact that Tsuchimikado Nogukata accepted the military's invitation to develop the Emperor-style Yin-Yang Technique." Erica turned to look at Konoe Koichi, who had fainted from hypnosis, and said, "So, we can do the exact opposite. By controlling the current government members, we can achieve our goal of weakening or replacing Yin-Yang Hall and speed up the process."
"Personally, I don't think it's possible to replace Yin-Yang Hall. After all, they're an organization that has been in this country for decades, and they have deep connections with the government. It's not something that we can easily shake." Liliana said in a low voice.
"Then we can infiltrate Yin-Yang Hall through the government, and then split them up from within!" Erica answered without thinking. "If necessary, we can even cooperate with the Twin Horns Association!"
"We seem to have forgotten that Mogi Zen Jiro, one of the Twelve Divine Generals, has seen our faces. Is it alright?" Tsuchimikado Kagura reminded.
"This is troublesome. If I had known, I would have taken down that person." Erica frowned.
"Then let's create a few more Spiritual Disasters to lure that person out. Isn't he an independent Demon Plucking Officer? "Yomi said without much concern.
"That's the only way." Erica nodded in agreement.
Hearing this, Tsuchimikado Kagura couldn't help but reveal a hesitant expression.
"Then let's do that. Let's leave this place first and go back to study how to create Spiritual Disasters. To be honest, I've never done anything like this before. "Suzu Ito shook her head with a bitter smile.
"Don't we have a ready-made guide?" Erica looked at the unconscious Konoe Koichi with a smile. She then walked in front of Konoe Koichi again and used magic to wake him up. She then used hypnosis to control his consciousness and asked him about how to create Spiritual Disasters.
The creation of Spiritual Disasters was the same as Demon Plucking. They were both derived from the Imperial Style Yin-Yang Jutsu developed by Tsuchimikado Yūkō. That was why Konoe Koichi, a Demon Plucking Officer, had some understanding of it. That was why he supplemented Suzu Ito and the others with information about Spiritual Disasters, Demon Plucking, and Demon Plucking techniques. This allowed Suzu Ito, Tsuchimikado Kagura, and Tsuchimikado Kagura to have a general understanding of this world's Yin-Yang Jutsu.
"So the source is still the Spirit Veins." Tsuchimikado Kagura said with a look of realization.
That was true. Although Spiritual Disasters were called Evil Spirits in the world of Spirit Eaters, they were formed by the combination of Spirit Veins and miasma. That was why Tsuchimikado Kagura was the first to understand how to create Spiritual Disasters.
After that, Erica used a magic spell to erase Jiang Haoyi's memories of her and the others. She then put Jiang Haoyi back.
"Let's go." Suzu Ito said in a soft voice.
The others nodded and left with Suzu Ito. They started strolling around the streets of this world's Tokyo. Of course, they weren't really strolling around. Instead, they were silently feeling the movement of the Spirit Veins under their feet as they strolled around. They were also observing the surrounding terrain to find a suitable location to create Spiritual Disasters.
After all, they weren't terrorists. They weren't crazy enough to create a Spiritual Disaster in a downtown area. There was no need to involve innocent people!
