Chapter 103 Really Various Reasons
"I feel like you're already omnipotent." Nine Lives sighed in admiration, "To be able to achieve this, that kind of transmission array created by those so-called gods and grandmasters is really weak. Even if I just think about it with my toes, I can probably guess that gathering so many demons here would definitely allow them all to pass through..."
Two words: awesome!!
"Of course not, I just borrowed some necessary conditions to get this far." Yakumo Yukari replied with a smile, while Kurenai Gouki looked up at the sky and said in an uncertain tone.
"The moon?"
"That's right."
"Really... then how are we supposed to get back?" Jiǔ Mìng nodded, since it was a full moon, it definitely wouldn't last too long, tonight would pass and tomorrow night it would be gone, without the strange connection of the full moon... how to return?
"Next full moon will do, I've already had Blue calculate the position." Yakumo Yukari said lightly, as if to enlighten Kokoro, but also seemingly intentionally for the other youkai, the war-loving youkai could no longer hold back and revealed a rather frantic expression, and this part of the youkai occupied more than 80%...
"Alright." He nodded and Jiuming stopped talking, just waiting from now on... Uh, no need to wait, Bachiko Yakumo directly took the lead in making a statement.
"Let's go."
She walked to the center of the lake, turned around and waved at Jiǔ Mìng. Jiǔ Mìng didn't say anything, but felt a slight sense of wonder that flying was indeed convenient. With one foot facing the lake in front of him, he stepped down, and with a faint ripple, a wave was generated from under his feet. Suddenly, Jiǔ Mìng felt a rapid sensation of falling.
Before he could make a landing pose, his feet touched the ground in a very strange way, not the water surface...
Huh? Looking around, the surroundings were in a desolate environment, and the blue moon with white clouds reflected from the "sky" was obviously the Earth. So... is that it?
He slightly moved his body, "Gravity is normal too... there's even a gentle breeze... this really is the moon!?"
"Of course, it's just that it's different from what ordinary people see of the moon. This is actually the true face of the moon."
It's this world, after all. Jiǔ Mìng muttered to himself. In his world, the moon was just the moon and the earth was just the earth. Whether it was people from Earth wanting to visit the moon or those unknown moon people wanting to visit Earth, they would honestly fly a distance of over 350,000 kilometers.
Who would have thought that this place is so unscientific, relying solely on the inverted reflection of the moon's shadow to come and go. The nine lives looked around and found that the densely packed monsters had also descended, displaying a strong desire to invade.
"Do all you monsters like invading?"
"At least most of it is like that." Yakumo Yukari also didn't avoid this topic, "If there weren't humans among humans who could resist us, you'd probably hear about some city falling every day."
"Alright..." Jiǔ Mìng nodded, "Your hands have reached quite far, I'm a bit regretful now."
Emotions are leading a large group of people to invade...
"Ah, don't worry about it, little shopkeeper." Yakumo Yukari seemed to have seen the thorn in Kurenai's heart and smiled mysteriously. "In the eyes of these moon people, the Earth is a prison-like place that they despise."
"Oh?" Does this still involve hierarchy? "Don't tell me you came here just to change their minds, that's nonsense."
"Hah, if these arrogant moon people were defeated by the earthlings they've always looked down on, wouldn't that be a great achievement?"
"I think you're hiding something." He let out a breath, looked around in all directions, but still couldn't see that big fox... "Where's Lan?"
"She stayed on the ground and was in charge of receiving."
"Alright, I get it." Jiǔ Mìng waved his hand, feeling a bit uncomfortable. If this were an invasion and counter-invasion battle, joining the invading side might not have given him this feeling... now he seemed to be on the invading side... felt slightly awkward.
Is this human sentimentality?
Kazahana Akane glanced at Yatsume Hime, and for a moment, she saw the faint smile that had been on her face all along disappear. She didn't seem too happy either?
"This is where we return, everyone hurry and leave this place, don't let the moon people discover us."
As Yakumo Yukari spoke, the youkai gathered here began to disperse in droves, somehow feeling rather hasty?
Just as he had this idea, Jiǔ Mìng shook his head, perhaps not, after all, he only came when Bā Yún Zǐ was almost ready, maybe she had made a lot of preparations before that.
"Hey, want to team up when we have to fight later?"
Kunmei heard the voice and looked back, it was that blonde-haired girl with red pupils wearing a black dress, "How's this? Charming little thing?"
"No way." Jiǔ Mìng shook her head, although her smile was easy to put people at ease, but Jiǔ Mìng still didn't want to "partner up" with her. He was afraid of being stabbed in the back by accident. "I'm used to working alone."
"What a pity, can you tell me what's going on between you and her?" The girl in the black dress pointed to Yatsume Kuroba ahead of them. "By the way, my name is Rumia..."
"My name is Jiǔ Mìng... Ah, relationships, I suppose it should be considered a normal friendship?" Jiǔ Mìng said this but also seemed somewhat uncertain.
Lumia smiled lightly, with a hint of eeriness, "Really? I haven't heard that the 'Yao Guai Xian Sheng' has any friends of the opposite sex. I've been paying attention to you for some time now, and it seems like you don't know her true purpose for coming here..."
"Invasion?"
"Huh?" Rumia gave Kuroba a strange look, "You believe such a reason for those small fries too?"
Trash... Jiǔ Mìng looked around and felt that the smiling girl in front of him seemed to have opened some kind of large-scale map cannon, as if she had blown away more than 90% of the requirements here. "Or should I say, you're also just a trash existence in her eyes?"
“……” Jiǔ Mìng looked at the black dress girl who was approaching, the faint body fragrance on her seemed to have a mesmerizing effect, he slightly furrowed his brow and took a step back, “Provocative words don't work well on me.”
Although he was a bit reluctant, he had accepted Yuyuko Saigyouji's request after all. As long as she and the people around her went back, that would be enough; as for what happened here, at worst he could just stand by and watch, but... if it wasn't an invasion, then what exactly was it?
"If it's not an invasion, you shouldn't have any reason to come here, right?" Jiǔ Mìng retorted back.
Because it's not human, the effect isn't that great? Seeing that she hadn't been affected in the slightest, Lumiere's smile didn't decrease by much. "Of course, I have no interest in invading, but I've long wanted to taste those moon people."
She stuck out her pink little tongue and licked her lips, then shifted her eyes to the green-haired girl beside her who didn't dare get close, "Do you see her? She's not interested in invading either. Despite having great power, she spends most of her time thinking about flowers."
"What's new with the moon flowers?" If she didn't continue to provoke him, Jiǔ Mìng was happy to chat with her. Anyway, his mood wasn't great and he was bored. As for her slightly heavy words... hmm, this era didn't have that kind of modern evil thinking, so that means... she wanted to eat people!!!
This is the real deal, a genuine monster, unlike those fake "man-eating girls" and whatnot.
"Of course not, she's probably here just for a few intense battles."
"It's really... all sorts of reasons." The nine lives didn't know what to say anymore, the moon people in this world seemed to be ridiculing them?
"They've already said so much, and yet they still don't know your name."
Looking at Rumiya who was approaching again, Jiǔ Mìng's eyes twitched slightly and continued to move away from her. Even though she hadn't shown any great malice towards him from head to toe, Jiǔ Mìng still felt that she was very dangerous. Don't be deceived by that cute and innocent appearance!
"Uh, I'm called Jiǔ Mìng."
That's right, this invasion... Well, let's just use the word "invasion" for now. Rumia's previous provocation didn't have much effect, but it still made Kurenai a bit uncomfortable in her heart. Speaking of which, how should the youkai invasion be handled?
First, find a good location and set up camp, then stock up on supplies and slowly whittle down the enemy? But now it seems like they're preparing to steamroll right over us, and not even a single monster is saying anything, as if this situation is perfectly normal...... What's going on?!
Too confident in one's own strength.
Is it that you are used to bullying humans, so you feel that the so-called "moon people" is just a prefix added in front, and in fact they are still human, so you don't think there's anything wrong with it?
BOOM!!!
Jiǔ Mìng's ears suddenly recalled a strong rumbling sound, and he saw that behind the entire group of monsters, a strong flame suddenly burst out. Because there were too many big guys among the monsters, he couldn't see the specific situation, but what he could tell was that it seemed like their rear had been blown up by someone?
Attack...... No, should I say it's a counterattack by the residents here?
His eyes seemed to have caught a glimpse of something in the distance, a slight distortion... Although it recovered quickly, making it easy to misinterpret, he was certain he hadn't seen wrong. Was it stealth?
Taking a glance at the front, Yatsume didn't show any unnatural behavior, Kurenai pulled the corner of her mouth and found out that she definitely wouldn't be able to notice it, but... directly ignoring them was what kind of attitude?
After that one explosion, there was no follow-up, it's clear that what they encountered can only be said to be very few people, who knows if the explosion was just to attract attention. At this time, what should be done is to prevent the residents here from spreading the news, right?
No matter how I look at it or think about it, everything feels out of place.
"Hmm, something's off." Rumia chuckled softly, her gaze returning from the distorted area that Kurenai had just seen, she too had noticed something was amiss.
