Chapter 78
"Ah, so what A-Shang got from his new boss was a ring that could condense entities out of thin air?" Using Yin-Yang magic to reduce his presence to a level that no one could detect, Tsuchimikado Motoharu happened to see Kamijou Touma and the other two being discovered and attacked.
However, he did not show up to help the two - after all, neither Stiyl nor Kamijou Touma were guys that could be dealt with by such a small battle, especially the latter who now received a gift from the mysterious store manager, and his strength has improved a lot. In terms of life-saving ability alone, he may be stronger than Stiyl, whose physical skills are extremely poor! "From the flow of magic power in the barrier, the real core should be in that direction..." With a gleam in his eyes, Tsuchimikado Motoharu turned in the opposite direction of the other two, and walked towards the real core of the barrier step by step with steps that no one could detect.
… “Hu…Hu…Hu…Hu…Where did that guy go?!” Kamijo Touma ran along the corridor stairs, and encountered several light balls along the way, but he resolved them one by one with the ring in his hand.
However, he still couldn't find the trace of the bad priest - the internal area of the building was too large, and there were many forks in the middle. It was really not easy to find him after getting separated.
When Kamijou Touma, who was panicking, just turned a corner, he suddenly found that someone was waiting for him on the road ahead.
A girl with glasses and long braids stood in front of Kamijou Touma with dull eyes, chanting the same spell as before: "The punishment of sin is fire, the control of fire is purgatory, purgatory exists to burn sinners, and it is the only violence allowed by God!" As she chanted, bloody wounds suddenly appeared on the girl's body, as if an invisible blade was hurting her.
"This is... By the way, Index said that people with special abilities cannot use magic, and once they use it, they will be hurt by the backlash... In other words, that Oreos is manipulating these students to use magic? Damn, he actually killed innocent people..." Kamijou Touma hated Oreos, whom he had never met, more than ever before.
"Sorry, it may be a little rough, but I can't let you hurt yourself anymore!" Kamijou Touma said this to the girl who had lost herself in front of him, and stretched out his left hand. The light curtain blooming from the green lantern ring did not condense into a physical mimicry like before, but turned into an energy force field covering his whole body.
——After suffering a loss once, even Kamijou, a poor student, knows how to learn! Then, the boy with a green light body rushed to the girl despite the attack of countless light balls, and pressed his right hand, the only one not covered by the force field, heavily on the girl's forehead.
Hiss——The girl who was chanting the second spell suddenly stopped, her lifeless eyes finally closed, and she fell unconscious.
At this moment, the countless light balls that were originally swarming suddenly seemed to lose power and fell to the ground, evaporating and dissipating like broken bubbles.
"This is..." Kamijou Touma didn't know what happened. He vaguely felt that it should have something to do with the actions of the bad priest, but he didn't have time to think about it now.
The boy carefully supported the unconscious girl and laid her flat on the ground.
Looking at the blood flowing from the wounds all over the girl's body, Kamijou Touma was a little at a loss for a moment.
Yes, yes, he still has a ring! 【OA, what should I do? Is there any first aid knowledge in your database? 】 Kamijou Touma asked in his consciousness.
【Yes, but there is no first aid equipment near the user, and the first aid knowledge in the database can be applied very limitedly.
】 "...It's better than nothing. Teach me what to do!" Kamijo Touma said eagerly.
【Yes, sir! 】 Just as Kamijou Touma followed the OA's instructions and clumsily tore the girl's clothes, intending to make some bandages on the spot to stop her bleeding, a voice came from behind him - "Leave it to me!" Turning around, it was the girl in shrine maiden costume who he had met once before, and the rescue target of this mission - Himegami Aisa! ... A scorching flame of magic power shot out from his hand, burning the huge runes carved on the wall. Stiyl looked at the students lying on the ground around him and said with a sigh: "Using students to launch the Gregorian Choir... I didn't expect that alchemist would also go astray! The thorny road should not be opened up with the flesh and blood of others, but with one's own efforts!" Just then—— "Sure enough, as long as you use the 'pseudo-choir', no matter where you are, you can be led to the core here!" A voice came from the darkness, and Stiyl looked in the direction of the voice, only to see Oreos swaggering out and coming to him.
"Of course, there are two invaders! Judging from the current situation, your followers should have been swallowed by the pseudo-choir!" Oreos with green hair said in a firm tone.
"Hmph! I'm sorry, he's much more difficult than I thought!" Stiyl threw the cigarette in his hand and said disapprovingly: "So, why did you lead me here?" ... "Okay, this will do!" Himegami Aisa suddenly appeared and used the tools in the medical box he carried with him to bandage the injured girl very skillfully.
"... So amazing, are you an unlicensed famous doctor?" Kamijo Touma had watched Himegami Aisa operate like flowing water before, and he completed the procedures of stopping bleeding, cleaning, suturing, and bandaging the wound in a few seconds. He really looked like a professional.
"No, I'm not a doctor."
But the girl in the shrine maiden costume denied Kamijou Touma's guess.
"Then who are you?" "A magician!" Himegami Aisa said so.
"Uh...how do you look like a magician?" "Here, I have evidence!" As she said this, Himegami Aisa put her hand into the chest of the miko's costume, and the occasional spring light made the innocent Kamijou blush and turn his head away.
"That's it, a magic wand!" Kamijo looked in the direction of the voice, only to see the girl holding a short metal stick with lightning flashing on it. It was indeed magic... What a head!!! "Wait! Isn't this a baton?!" Yes, it's the kind with electric shock function.
"It's new material!" The girl, who firmly believed that she was a magician, waved the baton in her hand, and the flashing arc on it made a crackling sound.
"Don't be kidding!" Kamijou Touma's complaining soul couldn't help it anymore.
')307'\u003eChapter 306 I found you!
In an unexpected encounter with Himegami Aisa, Kamijou Touma unexpectedly heard her evaluation of Oreos during the conversation with the slightly off-line girl in shrine maiden costume.
In Himegami Aisa's mouth, the evil magician who used innocent students as props to cast magic and ignored the possible casualties in the process turned out to be a kind person who "did not want to kill people, but wanted to save people".
Even the [blood-sucking killer] who controlled Misawa Academy and imprisoned Himegami Aisa was the same, in order to use the girl's special physique to attract and trap vampires, and use the power of vampires to save someone.
In order to make Himegami Aisa willing to serve him, he even promised the girl that he would not kill the vampires that were attracted.
This kind of benevolent behavior is completely different from everything he just saw! "...If he is as kind as you say, we must not let him go astray!" Kamijou Touma clenched his fists and said seriously, "If he continues to go astray, things will really get out of hand!" At this moment, footsteps were heard in the corridor behind Kamijou Touma.
"What kind of irreparable mistakes will I make?" Kamijou Touma turned around immediately and saw a figure walking out of the darkness deep in the corridor.
"He is..." Himegami Aisa nodded silently, allowing Kamijou Touma to confirm the identity of this person, it was Oreos! .
"Okay, don't worry, I'll be there soon!" The visitor said this, and then in the next moment, his figure suddenly appeared in front of Kamijou Touma, only one step away.
"!" Seeing this counterintuitive phenomenon for the first time, Kamijou Touma took a step back in astonishment.
"Of course you will have questions in your mind, but I have no obligation to answer you!" With an expression of pride and contempt, Oreos said such words.
"You guy!" Kamijou Touma was immediately enraged, and without thinking, he swung his fist and planned to punch the other party in the face.
However--"You are not allowed to get closer!" Oreos said so.
"!" Kamijou Touma, who was swinging his fist, immediately felt something was wrong. It was only a step away, but he couldn't cross it anyway. No matter how hard he tried to swing his fist, his fist could never reach the other party.
What's going on? Kamijou Touma took another step back, feeling a little doubtful.
However, the next moment, he threw away the wavering thoughts in his mind.
——Since the fist can't hit him, use other means! 【Concrete! 】 Kamijo Touma clenched his left fist, and the ring on his finger shone with a more dazzling green light. Then, a huge green fist condensed from the light, carrying kinetic energy that was ten or a hundred times greater than Kamijou Touma's own punch, and smashed hard at the alchemist.
"Huh?" Aureos, who was a little surprised by Kamijou Touma's method, frowned slightly and said, "Your attack can't reach me!" The huge fist stagnated less than ten centimeters in front of the alchemist, as if there was an invisible barrier to resist all attacks from Kamijou Touma.
"Damn it, blast it over!!!" Kamijo Touma roared, and the Green Lantern Ring received his scorching will, and the originally limited output was immediately released. The more powerful force was poured into the giant fist condensed by the boy through the green light.
Crack - As if something was broken, the obstacle that prevented the fist from moving forward suddenly disappeared. The huge fist that had been accumulating strength for a long time moved forward again, and would hit Oreos' face hard in the next moment.
"I will dodge this attack!" At this critical moment, the alchemist spoke at an unprecedented speed, quickly speaking words that sounded like a prophecy, and then the next moment, his "prophecy" really came true.
——Oreos' figure moved several positions in the air, and Kamijou Touma's punch aimed at his original position suddenly hit the air. In shock, Kamijou's will relaxed a little, and the condensed giant fist naturally dissipated.
"Is this... what you say comes true? What you wish for?" Kamijou Touma guessed the essence of Oreos' power-although he was a fool with an empty head, his sensitivity in battle was not low, and he quickly grasped the key point.
'Not good, if it's really what I think...' Before Kamijou Touma could come up with a countermeasure, Oreos on the other side had no intention of continuing to wave.
Swish--A golden flying shadow flew out from the alchemist's right sleeve, shooting towards Kamijou Touma like a laser.
Before the boy Kamijou could see what it was, a strong sense of crisis in his mind prompted him to subconsciously raise his right hand, just in time to block the flying shadow.
Biu——The palm of his hand stung slightly, and then the next moment, a sound effect representing the elimination of some kind of supernatural power sounded.
The boy looked closely and saw a golden dart in the palm of his right hand, but it immediately shattered into countless golden fragments in the next moment.
"Oh? You can actually block my instant alchemy. It seems that you are not an ordinary follower!" Oreos raised his eyebrows in surprise.
If ordinary people catch his golden dart with their hands like Kamijou Touma did, it would immediately turn into boiling liquid gold.
But the guy in front of him, who was originally thought to be just a follower sent by Academy City, caught it safely and destroyed the dart as the medium for the spell.
Maybe this guy will be more difficult to deal with than that Stiyl! "Well, forget it!" A needle as thin as a hair appeared in the hand of Oreos who was getting serious, and then he pierced his neck without hesitation. The next moment, he said: "Forget it!" "Hmm——" Kamijou Touma didn't even have a chance to resist and lost consciousness directly.
... "So that's it, is it the Golden Great Evolution Technique? I didn't expect that this magic that was originally thought to be impossible to use was actually performed completely. Should I say that Oreos is worthy of it..." With the help of the invisible shikigami, Tsuchimikado Motoharu clearly saw the scene where Kamijou Touma and Stiyl were easily solved, and at the same time he also saw the truth of this barrier that encompassed the entire building.
"But, that Oreos is not the real Oreos, although he looks exactly the same, he is not a human being at all... It should be some kind of substitute.
For an alchemist, it is a little difficult to create such a substitute, but with the help of the Golden Great Evolution Technique, it is indeed not a problem!" With the help of the extraordinary vision given by the spiritual base, the Yin Yang Master quickly saw through the nature of the Oreos who was acting outside.
"So, your true body is here!" Tsuchimikado Motoharu looked at the door in front of him. In his perception, the real core of the entire barrier is behind this door, that is, where the true body of Oreos is! The third update is here')308'\u003eChapter 307 It's the Yin Yang Master's turn now
Squeak--The heavy door opened, and Tsuchimikado Motoharu stepped into the room behind the door and saw his target of this trip-the alchemist, Oreos Isard.
"Oh? I didn't expect someone could find this place!" Behind the door was a huge office. Aureos, who looked exactly like the stand-in outside, was sitting behind the desk at this time. He looked at Tsuchimikado Motoharu who pushed the door in with an unexpected look: "It seems that you are also capable. You can actually avoid the search of the barrier!" "Ah, ah, after all, I am in this line of work, and I always have to have some tricks!" Tsuchimikado Motoharu, who was still dressed like a bad boy, said in his usual nonchalant tone.
"Humph! Although you are indeed capable of finding me here, your other two accomplices have failed. Do you think you have any chance of winning when you are left alone?" Aureos stood up from the seat behind the desk and slowly walked towards Tsuchimikado Motoharu.
"Well, maybe you misunderstood something.
I am not in the same group with those two guys!" Tsuchimikado Motoharu said so, and two rays of light flashed in his eyes covered by sunglasses.
The next moment, an invisible attack instantly descended on Oreos. The invisible heavy punch, comparable to a heavyweight boxing champion's full-strength punch, hit Oreos' chest and abdomen fiercely, causing the unprepared alchemist to instantly bend his waist and kneel on the ground with a face full of pain.
Oreos opened his eyes wide, trying his best to control the magic power in his body to infuse his pupils, and finally saw a vague shadow in the air.
This is the shikigami summoned by Tsuchimikado Motoharu with the help of Abe Haruaki's spiritual base.
The Yin-Yang Dao in this world also has shikigami-type spells, but the shikigami spells activated with the help of idol theory are essentially no different from other systems of magic. For an alchemist like Oreos, he will detect it before it is activated.
But the shikigami used by Tsuchimikado Motoharu this time are completely different. Although they still look like "ghosts" being driven in form, their essence is actually just the extension of the power of his spiritual base. From the classification point of view, they can be said to be pure "spirits". There is almost no regular flow of magic power. When it is activated, it is silent. Even Oreos, who is in the golden great evolution, can't detect the clues before being attacked.
"But, damn it!" Oreos slipped a long needle from his sleeve and stabbed it hard in his neck, then said with all his strength: "Stay away from me!" The phantom who was about to make up for the next attack was instantly repelled by the invisible force. Oreos took this opportunity to say the next order: "Heal my injuries!" The golden great evolution responded to his order, and the next moment, the alchemist finally felt that the pain in his body that almost swallowed his consciousness disappeared.
Standing up quickly, Oreos pulled out the long needle stuck in his neck, replaced it with a new one and stuck it in another acupuncture point on his neck, and said the next command: "All invisible things, show up in front of me!" An invisible wave swept across, and Oreos finally saw clearly that in this room, in addition to him and the invader in front of him, there were twelve ethereal spirits.
And the one who just knocked him down was one of the figures dressed as ancient Japanese generals.
"So that's it, are you a native Japanese Onmyoji? This should be the so-called Shikigami!" Although it was very subtle to mistake the fundamentally different power system for the native magic of this world, what Oreos said was not wrong-even if it was the Onmyoji of another world, it was still Onmyoji! "Tsk, in order to ensure that I won't kill you, did I go too light... It's a bit troublesome!" Perhaps it was the first time that Tsuchimikado Motoharu controlled the Shikigami to fight, and he made some mistakes in his grasp of strength, and he didn't make the opponent completely unconscious with one blow, and the current situation became a little unfavorable to him.
"Hmph, it seems that the magic system of this small place in Japan still has something.
But your biggest mistake is that you shouldn't appear in front of me in person!" A long needle appeared in Oreos's hand again, and pierced heavily into his neck. With blood oozing out of the surface of his skin, he issued an order: "In my world, spirits are not allowed to exist!" As soon as the voice fell, those spirits as mighty as gods disappeared. Tsuchimikado Motoharu could feel that he could no longer summon them in this barrier.
However, the alchemist's attack was not over yet. He pointed in the direction of Tsuchimikado Motoharu and said the result he wanted in a short sentence: "Consider a huge stone, and crush it to death with a heavy object!" ——For this enemy who almost destroyed his grand plan, the alchemist did not intend to hold back! A huge stone appeared out of thin air above Tsuchimikado Motoharu's head, and then instantly hit his head under the action of gravity- Bang! In an instant, the Onmyoji with his head crushed fell into a pool of blood... This situation is impossible.
In fact, when the stone fell, what was flattened was just a paper cut into a human figure. The real Tsuchimikado Motoharu was not here at all! "Stand-in?" Oreos, who was used to using stand-ins, did not expect that he would be fooled by the same trick.
"Intruder, appear in front of me!" After giving himself another injection, the alchemist wanted to use the power of the Golden Dayan technique to summon the hidden enemy in front of him.
But - there was no movement! The Onmyoji's figure did not appear in front of the alchemist. Even after he used the power of the barrier itself to detect, the result he got was "there is no intruder in the barrier"! In other words, the other party actually deceived the enemy-seeking ability of the Golden Dayan technique barrier and deceived this great magic that can simulate the world! "Ah, luckily I'm best at deception, otherwise I'd be in real danger!" Tsuchimikado's voice with a strong Kansai accent came from all directions, but no matter how Oreos probed, he could not find the other party's position.
"Impossible! How could my golden great derivation technique be deceived by a mere Yin-Yang technique!" The unexpected situation made Oreos fall into a frenzy. The alchemist, who didn't believe that his ultimate alchemy was so easily cracked, stabbed the long needle into his neck again and again, shouting frantically: "Come out! Come out! Intruder, show up in front of me!" But no one showed up.
"Damn..." Just when Oreos was about to doubt his life, suddenly, the paper-cut figurine that was smashed out of its original shape by the boulder silently curled up into a ball and turned into a paper bullet. With a "bang", it hit the alchemist's back of the head from the blind spot of his vision, knocking him unconscious instantly.
')309'\u003eChapter 308: Forced to Take the Blame \u0026 Release of the Noble Phantasm
After the unconscious alchemist fell to the ground, Tsuchimikado Motoharu finally walked out of the shadows of the room.
"So, I'm always in front of you, but there's nothing you can do if you can't see me!" Tsuchimikado Motoharu squatted down to check on Oreos's situation, while making sarcastic remarks that added insult to injury. If If the alchemist was still conscious, he would be so angry that he would stick all the needles in his neck! Fortunately, poor Oreos has lost consciousness now and cannot hear what Tsuchimikado Motoharu is saying.
"Okay, now my work has just begun!" According to the new owner's requirements, Onmyoji took out a syringe from his pocket. The glass syringe was filled with not any medicine, but a bright silver color. of liquid.
If Kamijou-san were here, he would easily recognize that the liquid looks very similar to the nanomachines in "A Shop".
In fact, this is a kind of nanomachine, but it is not the "motion-enhanced nanomachine" that Kamijou Touma has seen before, but a type that purely acts on the human brain. It is best at searching and copying the host's memory, and it also has Additional functions to repair brain damage during special periods.
Well, actually it's the one that Index and Kamijou Touma both have in their bodies.
Although Tsuchimikado Motoharu didn't know what the function of the nanomachine in his hand was, he knew that as long as he injected it into Oreos' body, his mission would be completed.
...Just when Tsuchimikado Motoharu, who had completed his mission, was about to evacuate, he suddenly raised his head and saw the sky above the roof of the building as if through the layers of ceilings.
"This is..." Sensing the terrifying power projected from a long distance in the sky, Onmyoji felt a warning sign in his heart - this is a terrifying power that can destroy the entire Misawa School. Once it falls, this... Everyone in the building will not survive! With a spiritual light flashing in his eyes, Tsuchimikado Motoharu looked at the entrance of the building. Although there were many obstacles, his spiritual eyes could still see the figures emitting strong spiritual light.
"Roman Orthodox Church, Gregorian Choir? These guys really don't take human life seriously!" Although the attack has been launched, there are still a few seconds before it falls on the head.
If Tsuchimikado Motoharu is willing, he has every chance to escape from the attack range.
But he didn't do that.
Although he was born in the magic side and came to Academy City as a spy, Tsuchimikado Motoharu is not one of those cold-blooded religious fanatics after all. He couldn't do it if he just watched hundreds of students die innocently. arrive! On the contrary, at this moment, the Onmyoji who regained the Onmyoji technique used all his power for the first time.
He saw Tsuchimikado Motoharu sealing the seal in his hand, and the alien magic power contained in the spiritual base expanded and burned, covering his body surface, as if he was covered with a coat of flame.
The next moment, all the water pipes in the entire Misawa School building burst open. Not only the inside of the building, but also the water pipes buried under the streets outside burst open at the same time. Countless water flows were controlled by his will. , the sky condensed into a huge magic circle, completely covering the entire building.
This is the defensive technique that Tsuchimikado Motoharu was best at using when he was a local Onmyoji - Lotto Swordjiocongye晌芰φlie笠丫薹ㄊ褂怂怦Guanignawing┱ The ditch curtain ammonia is replaced by the freezing haze suppression system.
However, after obtaining this existence called "Lingji" marked with the name of his ancestor, he was finally able to re-cast the magic of the past in another way.
——Because the source of the power to activate magic is no longer him, but the power contained in his spiritual base, the conflict between magic and superpowers no longer exists. Moreover, because the source of activation of magic comes from him. This person has become a spirit base far above human beings. The power of the same magic is much more powerful than the results he used in the past.
However, what he has to face this time is not an ordinary attack, but the real Gregorian Chorus - composed of 3,333 monks gathered in the Vatican Basilica, the greatest in the world Holy land, the great magic of chanting the holy mantra together... Can he really stop it with his own strength? If it was him in the past, he would definitely not be able to do it... But now he knows that he can stop it! ——This is the confidence he gained from the power surging within his body.
The next moment, the extremely terrifying attack finally fell! Boom——! ! ! Like a divine punishment, the blazing white lightning fell from the sky and landed on the magic circle composed of water flow, making a loud noise like a meteorite falling to the ground.
Even with the intervention of the [Idle Dispersal] technique, the movement here was still too violent, and the explosions that exploded in the air could be heard even several blocks away.
However, this attack was blocked after all! With the help of the power of the spirit base, he regained the Onmyojitsu, and even jumped to the peak of Onmyodo. With the help of the power of [絏絔], he gathered the "feng shui" power of most of Academy City and turned it into a shield. , facing the Gregorian Choir, the ultimate weapon of the Roman Orthodox Church, like an iron wall, it firmly blocked the thunder-like attack of heaven's punishment.
However, the attack of the Gregorian Choir is not a one-time instant attack, but a continuous great magic. As long as the 3,333 monks in the Vatican Cathedral do not stop singing hymns, Attacks like divine punishment will rain down continuously.
This is also the reason why this great magic can be regarded as the ultimate weapon by the Roman Orthodox Church - no enemy can withstand this level of continuous attack.
Although Tsuchimikado Motoharu, who has a spiritual base, can no longer be considered a human when he activates his power, he can resist it for a while, but he can't resist it forever.
We must find a way to interrupt this magic! Kill those knights responsible for positioning? No, it won't work. The magic has been activated and the location of the target has been locked. Even if we kill all the knights, it will be meaningless.
Now, there is only one way, that is to start directly from the source of this magic, that is, the 3,333 monks who are chanting hymns in the Vatican Cathedral on the other side of the earth! "It just so happens that this spiritual base I obtained seems to have a power called [Noble Phantasm], right? I have never used it before, so this time is a good time to give it a try!" Tsuchimikado Motoharu showed a slightly ferocious smile on his face, and changed the seal in his hand, releasing the real name of the Noble Phantasm engraved in the spiritual base: "[Onmyojitsu·Astronomical Manipulation]!"')310'\u003eChapter 309 The hand is not broken, harem -1, profit or loss?
Outside Misawa Academy, Kamijou Touma and Stiyl, who had just recovered the memories deleted by Oreos, hurried back to the front of the building, just in time to see the scene where the remaining knights of the Thirteen Knights led and launched the Gregorian Choir.
