The infinite train's schedule was fixed. When Megumi Kato and the other two boarded the infinite train, it happened to be the same train that the main protagonists of "Demon Blade" were on. In the original novel, Oomon Charcoal Jiro and the others had a fierce battle with the Last Senichi's ghost on this train.
Logically speaking, meeting up with the original main protagonists would increase their mission completion rate. Because the Last Senichi was not very strong, both the original main protagonists and Future Kuriyama would be able to deal with him.
But they did not choose to do so, because there was a problem.
Mission Requirement: Board the infinite train and ensure everyone's survival.
So, who was the "everyone" in the mission? Only Megumi Kato, Yukina Yukinoshita, and Future Kuriyama? Or did it include the Ghost Killers' main protagonists? Or even … the two hundred people on this train?
The mission did not have a clear hint. Most people would naturally think that only Megumi Kato and the other two were involved. But such a mission was too easy, not worthy of the difficult level. As for the Ghost Killers' main protagonists, they were not weak to begin with. As long as the Last Senichi did not appear, there was no need to protect them. So, the most likely possibility was … the ordinary people on the infinite train were also included in the mission!
This was a cautious thought, but they only had one chance, so they had to be cautious.
Most importantly, in the original novel, because the protagonists fought hard, they successfully protected everyone on the train from the demonic claws of the ghost, and no one was harmed. But now, because of the arrival of the three transmigrators, ordinary people were injured or killed. No matter how you looked at it, it was their failure.
So, after careful consideration, Megumi Kato and the others gave up on interacting with the main protagonists. They pretended to be ordinary people and stayed in the train quietly, watching the situation unfold.
But this situation didn't last long. When the train traveled a certain distance and night fell, there was some restless commotion in the carriage. Some passengers seemed to be unable to bear the train's jolts and began to feel dizzy and vomiting. This immediately attracted the attention of the train attendants. Then, another attendant began to check the passengers' tickets.
"It's time to check the tickets!" Yukina, who was sitting at the back of the carriage, immediately became spirited.
The evil ghost on the infinite train was Last Quarter Moon. He was a Nightmare Ghost. Through the Blood Ghost Spell, he could make people fall into a deep sleep and then kill them in their dreams. In the original work, he controlled the passengers on the train and did something to the train tickets, pulling the protagonist into a dream.
Li Shan and the others had always been very dutiful, not doing anything that would attract attention. In theory, Last Quarter Moon would not attack them, but this was a Difficult Mission, so they had to be on guard.
"Let me do it." Kuriyama Miyamoto whispered as he collected their tickets and waited for the train attendant to inspect them.
If Wanqian Ichi really made a move, with the abilities of Megumi Kato and Yukina, they might not be able to withstand it. However, she did not care. She was originally good at dealing with these illusory and real spells, and with the second soul as insurance, she was completely fearless. Even if she was accidentally hit, she could remove it by letting out her blood.
The process of checking the tickets was very smooth, and it did not arouse the other party's suspicion. It seemed like it was just a formality. However, not long after, Kuriyama Miyamoto realized that the movement in the carriage had become much quieter, revealing an indescribable silence. Then, the three of them realized that most of the passengers were asleep, and those who were not asleep also looked drowsy.
"How is this possible?" Yukina could not help but widen her eyes.
The train was traveling at night, so it was normal for people to fall asleep, but it was not normal for them to fall asleep so quickly. It was obvious that someone was playing tricks.
"In other words, that Last Quarter Moon, he dragged everyone in the carriage into a dream? Is he really that powerful? " Megumi Kato said. Pulling people into a dream also required energy, and the Last Quarter Moon in the original work did not seem to be so powerful.
"In any case, the other party has already made his move. Both of you guard here to prevent them from being eaten by the ghost. I'll go to the front to take a look." Kuriyama Miyamoto made a prompt decision and immediately ran forward.
Soon, Kuriyama arrived at the third carriage. Everyone here was fast asleep, except for a young girl.
It was a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl with black hair. She was dressed in simple Japanese clothing and had a bamboo tube in her mouth. She was trying her best to pull a sleeping boy beside her.
She was the heroine of "Blade of Ghost Vanquisher", Mi Dou Zi, the younger sister of the protagonist, Tan Jilang. Although she was turned into a ghost by the Ghost Dancer, the bond of kinship made her retain the memories of when she was a human, and was not controlled by the Ghost Dancer. At the same time, because of the hint of the protagonist's master, in her eyes, all human beings were family.
Although Li Shan's future was different from a normal person's, she was still a human no matter how one looked at it. Her arrival did not arouse any hostility from Mi Douzi, but only made her a little wary.
On the other hand, due to Kuriyama's quick actions, Charcoal Jiro and the others had just fallen into a deep sleep, and the humans controlled by Last Quarter Moon hadn't come to kill them yet, so Mi Douzi hadn't thought of how to wake her brother up.
"Let me. I won't hurt them."
Kuriyama walked in front of Mi Douzi and smiled warmly. The latter blinked and looked at him for a while, then obediently stood to the side.
There were only four people that needed to be saved. The protagonist, Tan Jilang, and his partners in the Ghost Killer Squad, My Wife Shanyi, Mouth Nosuke, and the Flame Pillar Purgatory, Xing Shou (To be honest, the names of the Ghost Vanquisher characters were quite tongue-twisting). As for the other normal people, he could ignore them for now. Fortunately, they were all together.
Thus, Kuriyama quickly took out the tickets from their pockets, then cut his palm and dripped his blood on it. In an instant, the tickets were corroded, and the conflict of blood directly broke Last Quarter Moon's Blood Ghost Technique.
This was not the first time Li Shan had broken the Blood Ghost Spell in the future. Before this, she had already used the wild ghosts on the road to test her ability. This was because the ghosts in this world all derived their power from the blood bestowed by the Ghost Dancer Wu Bing, so when the two cursed blood conflicted, the Blood Ghost Spell would be ineffective.
In a way, Kuriyama was the nemesis of the fourth type of ghost besides the Sun, Solar Wheel Blade, and Chinese Wisteria.
After being saved by Kuriyama, the four of them woke up one after another.
"Wah, what a beautiful lady … No, I already have Little Mi Dou, ahhhh, it's so painful …" My wife Shanyi, who had her heart set on getting a wife, opened her eyes and saw Kuriyama. Her eyes instantly lit up, but when she saw Mi Dou standing at the side, she immediately hugged her head in pain, as if she was in a dilemma about which one to choose.
Kuriyama knew that this guy had no morals, so she couldn't be bothered with him and looked at Yan Zhu and Tan Jilang.
Of course, the two of them wouldn't be as frivolous as my wife Shanyi. Looking at the corroded tickets in their hands, they could already smell the ghost's scent. Yan Zhu asked first, "Was it you who saved us? Miss? "
"I guess so." Kuriyama nodded. To prevent any accidents, she immediately said, "I know you're from the Ghost Killer Squad. I have some grudges with ghosts, so we can be considered as comrades. In order to deal with you, the ghost on the infinite train dragged you into a dream. Now that I've broken his Blood Ghost Spell, he should be attacking us soon. The humans on the train are all his food, so we have to act immediately and kill him. "
"Mm, although I don't know who you are, what you said makes sense!" Yan Zhu nodded heavily, "The Nightmare Ghost that dragged us into the dream, its main body must be hiding somewhere in the train. We have to protect the humans on the train while eliminating it, so we can only split up and act separately …"
As expected of the experienced Pillar of the Ghost Killer Group, he was able to analyze the situation and make a judgment in such a short time. Even Li Shanwei was impressed and said, "There are two of my companions in the last carriage. It's very safe there."
"Then leave the middle four to me, as for the ghost …"
"I know where he's hiding, I can deal with him." Before Yan Zhu finished, Kuriyama took out her blood blade.
"Blood Ghost Spell?!" In an instant, everyone's expression changed.
Kuriyama's Blood Manipulation Technique was very similar to the Blood Ghost Spell in many aspects. Those who didn't know would probably treat her as a ghost. However, the members of the Ghost Killer Squad could clearly tell the difference between humans and ghosts, so although they were surprised, they didn't show any hostility.
On the other hand, Yan Zhu looked down at the corroded train ticket in his hand. His eyes flashed as if he remembered something.
Soon, everyone assigned their tasks. Yan Zhu guarded the middle four carriages, Mi Dou Zi and Izosuke guarded the first carriage, and Kuriyama and the main character Charcoal Jiro went to the front of the train to kill the ghost … As for my wife, Shanyi, she fainted when Kuriyama took out her blood blade.
The battle started abruptly, but it ended smoothly.
Because Kuriyama had the hint from the original work, she knew that the infinite train had already merged with the last quarter of the train, and the brain was hidden in the front of the train. Therefore, she didn't care about the fancy tricks. She went to the front of the train with Charcoal Jiro and slashed down with her blade. Before the enemy could react, the metal sheet under their feet was split open, revealing a pile of meat.
"A ghost is actually hiding in a place like this!" Charcoal Jiro was shocked.
Last Quarter First obviously didn't expect that his hiding place would be exposed so quickly. He panicked, "You actually …"
As he spoke, the meatballs revealed their eyes, and the Blood Ghost Art was unleashed, pulling Charcoal Jiro into a dream again, and he froze on the spot.
This Charcoal Jiro had lost part of his experience in the dream world in the original work. He didn't know how to get out of the dream world, so he instantly lost the ability to fight. However, the next moment, he woke up again.
Because …
"This is useless against me!"
Li Yanyi stabbed her blade into the meat ball, and then her blood blade exploded in the meat ball. The cursed blood was like a virus that quickly spread to every part of Last Quarter Yi's body. The meat ball that was originally considered fresh, instantly started to rot at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Ahhhhh …"
The cursed blood collided with each other. The pain was unimaginable to outsiders. Last Quarter First let out a series of screams.
Different from the green-faced ghost, Kuriyama now had enough experience. In addition, the cursed blood directly exploded in his opponent's body, making it even more powerful than before. In just a few seconds, Last Quarter First was on the verge of death.
However, the screaming Last Quarter First suddenly revealed a joyful smile. "Haha … it's you! So it's you! I finally found you! "
Kuriyama's expression changed slightly. "You're looking for me?"
"It's useless. It's too late now. You won't be able to escape. Very soon … very soon, you'll be with me … haha …"
Last Quarter First laughed, his voice getting weaker and weaker. When his laughter finally stopped, he had also ended his sinful life. However, looking at the pile of rotten meat in front of him, Kuriyama had a bad feeling.
Last Quarter First was under the control of the Ghost Dancer Xie Wubing. The only one who could command him was the Ghost Dancer Xie Wubing. However, he knew her, which meant …
"Miss Kuriyama!"
At this moment, she suddenly heard Charcoal Jiro's scream in her ear.
"What's wrong?"
"Ghost … there are so many ghosts …"
Charcoal Jiro's voice was not calm. Kuriyama followed his gaze and looked forward. Instantly, her heart skipped a beat.
Because the infinite train had already fused with Last Quarter First, after Last Quarter First died, the train was forced to stop. Then, through the window of the train, she saw countless ghosts emerging from behind the hills on both sides of the road. They charged straight at the infinite train.
"This number … Miss Kuriyama, we might be in trouble."
Tan Zhi Lang swallowed his saliva, his expression bitter. He could be considered a person who had seen the world. He had come into contact with the Ghost Dancer, Chi Wu Bei, and had also fought with the Last Quarter Moon, but he had never seen so many ghosts before … There were at least a few thousand of them scattered all over the mountain, right?
With such a large number of ghosts, did this mean that all the ghosts in Japan had been gathered together?
Even if it was Flaming Pillar, it would be exhausted to death if it was surrounded by these thousands of ghosts!
At the same time, Kuriyama felt her phone vibrate.
She immediately took out her phone, only to see …
[Mission changed: Defend for half an hour under the attack of the ghosts. Ensure the survival of the infinite train.]
Very good, there was finally no need to guess riddles. Not a single one of the two hundred people on the infinite train could die!
"Get off!"
Li Yantian finally understood the purpose of this Hard Mode Dungeon. If one were to say that the World Will was not behind this, she would not believe it even if she was beaten to death. Although she was a little angry, she had no other choice.
With the order, Kuriyama Miyamoto immediately jumped out of the window.
In the dark of the night, the girl brandished her blood-red saber and slaughtered the ghosts that covered the mountains and plains.
…
"This is troublesome."
In the royal brothel, Tang Hao frowned as he watched the video.
Originally, the Infinite Train Instance Dungeon was not difficult. Even Mochi San would only need one slash to deal with Li Shan's future. However, with the interference of the World Will, the situation had clearly become much more complicated.
There were already three to four thousand ghosts that could be seen with the naked eye. Including those that had yet to appear, it was estimated that there would be more than ten thousand of them.
There were tens of thousands of ghosts. Even if they just stood there and let people kill them, would Li Shan be able to kill them all in the future?
She wasn't an AoE type!
Furthermore, these ghosts might just be the prelude, used as cannon fodder. Once they were all dead, Li Shan and the rest would have their stamina depleted. At that time, they would attack together …
"Hold on, half an hour will be enough!"
Tang Hao opened the live chat channel and said in a low voice.
As long as they could hold on for half an hour, he would be able to make his move.
