Haruhiko looked at Utsunomiya Mina.
He didn't notice.
Utsunomiya Mina smiled, stepped forward, stretched out her hand, and placed it on the stone tablet.
As the spiritual energy poured out, the stone tablet changed.
A line of text appeared.
Haruhiko took a look and saw that it was not snake language, but normal Japanese.
But it is different from the modern ones. It looks more ancient and uses more Chinese characters.
Haruhiko had studied it in a history class at the University of Tokyo, so he quickly recognized the words above.
It probably means, the tomb of Shizugamae.
In other words, they weren't looking in the wrong place.
Utsunomiya Mina took back her hand.
The words on the stone tablet disappeared.
The next second, she raised her foot, the curves of muscles emerging from her white calves, and then stepped on it.
The stone tablet shook suddenly and fell into pieces.
Haruhiko raised his eyebrows.
Without waiting for questioning, a deep passage was revealed under the stone tablet.
Is this how it was originally opened?
Haruhiko wanted to complain.
To open the ruins in front of Jingyu, you need to destroy her tombstone.
Is it too outrageous?
"Master of the house."
Utsunomiya Mina looked at Haruhiko and suggested, "It's best to leave one person up there."
"I stayed."
The one who spoke was the newly joined Kawasaki Osawa.
He has no sense of identity with the Utsunomiya clan.
The ruins were always dangerous, and he felt it was safer to stay up there.
"That's fine."
Haruhiko understood what he was thinking.
This is normal.
He would find it strange that he showed loyalty as soon as he joined.
"I'll go down first."
Utsunomiya Minami took a step forward, spread the black wings on her back, and jumped into the air.
After a while, a voice came.
"It's safe down there, there's no danger for the time being."
"Master of the house."
Utsunomiya Mina was still not reassured and said, "Come down with me."
The last thing she wanted was for something to happen to Haruhiko right now.
Once he appears, her life will be at risk.
Even if he is the fifth level, he has no chance of winning against the fifth level psychics such as Jinguji Fuyu, Tsuchimikado Mari, Tsuchimikado Mashiro and Chiyome.
What's more, she is still looking forward to her comeback.
In fact, Haruhiko is not worried about any danger.
In addition to the life-saving means of space teleportation, there is also Yue Kai who has just been obtained.
It was the fourth-level spiritual tool that Utsunomiya Mina went to Kanagawa early in the morning to get.
[Name: Yue Kai. 】
[Rank: Fourth level. 】
[Skill: Ruyi. 】
[Remarks: A swordsman’s exclusive spiritual tool created by the Kawasaki clan. 】
[Ruyi: The fourth level, passive spell, defends according to the enemy's attack range. 】
The skills are few, but quite useful and don't require psionic energy.
The most important thing is that you don't have to worry about it, you can defend yourself automatically.
Even adjusting the defense strength and range is quite worry-free.
"Um."
Haruhiko nodded slightly, he did not reject Utsunomiya Mina's kindness.
He stepped forward, held her hand, and the two of them jumped into the passage at the same time.
After a brief period of darkness, a faint light appeared.
They were standing in front of a door.
The door is made of wood, as if it were the residence of an ancient city lord.
Haruhiko felt something was wrong.
According to legend, Jing Yuqian was buried by a maid.
But this specification is obviously not something that an ordinary maid can achieve.
Is it Minamoto Yoshitsune?
It's just that he should have died before Jing Yuqian.
"Master of the house."
Utsunomiya Mina noticed his thoughtful look and asked, "Is there any problem?"
Utsunomiya Minami watched the two people shaking hands and curled her lips.
Unlike humans, she is a demon.
Compared to Utsunomiya Mina, she is a little more sincere.
I really like Haruhiko.
Especially his physique, which is really great.
Utsunomiya Minami felt unprecedented happiness.
"nothing."
Haruhiko didn't explain, just said, "Be careful."
He knew the original history, but Utsunomiya Mina and the others did not.
Because this is in the game.
"Um."
Utsunomiya Mina let go of her hand.
Utsunomiya Momo and others also followed in.
Now is the time to open this door.
The information given by the snake spirit ends at the entrance.
Therefore, you can only rely on yourself.
Haruhiko looked at the wooden door, which had prints, or ukiyo-e, hanging on it.
The content is of a man and a woman holding an umbrella in the rain.
There is a faint door crack in the middle, which divides the painting into two halves, that is, two doors.
"Minami."
Utsunomiya Mina ordered, "Try to see if you can open it."
Utsunomiya Minami nodded, walked to the door, and pushed hard, but the door did not move at all.
She is a fourth-level demon with great strength. She cannot push it away, which means there is a restriction on it.
"You stand back."
Utsunomiya Mina raised her hand, and a short sword appeared.
The wind howled.
The dagger hit the wooden door and made a clanging sound.
The wooden door was unscathed.
Haruhiko narrowed his eyes.
It's definitely not wooden.
How can wood be so hard?
At this moment, the door suddenly shook.
Haruhiko looked at it intently. The door was not open, but the prints on the door had changed.
The young woman wearing a witch costume came out.
She stood in front of everyone, her eyes full of life.
If it weren't for the visible black lines on her body, people would really think she was resurrected.
"Welcome everyone."
The young woman said with a smile on her face.
Haruhiko and Utsunomiya Mina looked at each other, both a little surprised.
Compared with ordinary ruins, this ruins looks quite peculiar.
"Excuse me, are you Shizugozen?"
Seeing that she could talk, Haruhiko was not polite and asked.
"I'm not Jing."
The young woman shook her head.
Jing Yuqian, Jing is the name, and Yuqian is the honorific title for aristocratic women in ancient Japan.
"no?"
Haruhiko showed a stunned expression.
The tomb of Shizugamae is clearly written on the stone tablet outside.
How could he suddenly become someone else?
"I am Hojo Masako."
The young woman said calmly.
Haruhiko was stunned for a moment, becoming even more confused.
Hojo Masako was the head wife of Minamoto Yoritomo, the great shogun of the Heian period.
And Yoritomo Minamoto is the elder brother of Minamoto Yoshitsune.
It is obviously the tomb of Minamoto Yoshitsune's beloved wife, Shizugozen, but why did it become the tomb of Minamoto Yoritomo's main wife?
Wait, it doesn’t have to be a grave.
Hojo Masako's position in history is relatively special, because after her husband's death, she took power.
This is the so-called listening to politics behind the curtain.
Haruhiko wanted to ask, but Hojo Masako didn't give him a chance.
"If you beat me, you can enter."
As she spoke, she took out a wooden tube used by witches for divination.
"Draw lots?"
Haruhiko was slightly startled and couldn't believe it.
He thought it was going to be a fight or something.
"Well, draw lots."
Hojo Masako smiled and said, "As long as you have better luck than me, you win."
"What if we lose?"
Haruhiko raised his eyebrows and asked, "Can't you go in?"
"That's right."
Hojo Masako nodded and said, "This place will be destroyed by then. Unless it is a god, there is nothing we can do."
Haruhiko's mouth twitched slightly.
What weird rule?
Want to test your luck?
But from what she said, even a fifth-level psyker wouldn't be able to do it forcefully.
In this case, he could only agree to her bet.
Haruhiko suddenly felt that he was lucky.
Because he had just obtained a lucky gem at the Soaring Snake Ruins.
It comes in handy now.
"Then start now."
Hojo Masako took the wooden tube and started shaking it.
After a few seconds, a wooden stick flew out and landed on the ground.
"It's Zhongji."
Hojo Masako showed a confident smile on his face and said, "It seems to be my advantage."
If Haruhiko wants to win, he can only win.
This probability is really too low.
Utsunomiya Mina and others couldn't help showing concern on their faces.
Could it be that we have to go all the way in vain and watch the ruins being destroyed?
"That's impossible to say."
Haruhiko was actually a little panicked.
But at least he can't be at a disadvantage in terms of face.
Gambling, sometimes it depends on the mentality.
"Then good luck to you."
Hojo Masako stepped forward and handed over the wooden tube.
Haruhiko glanced at her from a close distance and found out more about her wonderful state.
They are clearly black and white lines, but they are lifelike.
He did not take the wooden tube immediately, but took out the red Luan.
Hojo Masako showed a puzzled expression at the right time.
This makes her more like a real person.
Haruhiko didn't explain and hung Hongluan around his waist.
Hongluan comes with a matching scabbard.
Although he didn't use it much, he always asked Izumi to keep it.
Haruhiko silently opened the lucky gem, picked up the wooden tube, and started shaking it up and down.
Soon, a wooden stick flew out.
Everyone's eyes were directed towards the ground.
"It's lucky!"
Utsunomiya Minami couldn't hide her excitement and said excitedly.
If there were no outsiders present, she could not help but pounce on him.
In fact, she is not interested in the ruins, but the main thing is to support them.
Utsunomiya Mina breathed a sigh of relief.
Her mentality is relatively stable.
But I was still happy to see Haruhiko win.
It is a relic after all.
"Congratulations."
There was no hint of disappointment in Hojo Masako's tone, "You are qualified to enter."
After she finished speaking, she turned into a faint stream of light and returned to the door.
With a creak, the door slowly opened, revealing the antique courtyard inside.
"Let's go in."
Haruhiko looked at Utsunomiya Mina and said.
Utsunomiya Minami consciously walked in the front.
She entered the courtyard and looked around, but did not find any psychic fluctuations, just like an ordinary mansion.
But such a special way of opening the door means it cannot be ordinary.
Haruhiko stepped forward and stopped at the door. He looked at Masako Hojo on the left.
Now she has completely become a painting.
When she walked out before, there were obvious traces of psychic energy, but now it has completely disappeared.
This explains the spell set above.
Open the door and it will return to normal.
Haruhiko secretly thought it was a very interesting spell.
If you can learn it and put it at your doorstep, it should be quite good.
At least it will deter thieves.
That’s not right, you can’t guard against the European Emperor.
Too unfriendly to African Emirates.
Haruhiko enters the courtyard.
This ancient house is quite large, just like a palace.
And it looks familiar.
Haruhiko quickly determined that this was the so-called shogunate.
The shogunate originally referred to the general's military tent.
But the shogunate in Japan is very special and is a symbol of the highest power.
Haruhiko suddenly remembered that the founder of the shogunate system was Minamoto Yoritomo.
Therefore, this place can be called a palace.
Haruhiko's eyes lit up.
He had thought it was just the relic of an ordinary general's concubine.
Now he has become the shogun.
The value is undoubtedly doubled.
But the difficulty may also rise.
Haruhiko thought of this and told his guess.
Utsunomiya Mina and others nodded, looking more alert.
"Do we need to divide our troops into two groups?"
Because the palace was very large, Utsunomiya Mina asked.
"Need not."
Haruhiko thought for a while and said, "There are relatively few of us, so it is safer to go together."
Utsunomiya Mina didn't say anything after hearing this.
There are roughly three roads branching off from the palace.
Haruhiko touched his chin and headed straight to the middle gate, which is the main hall.
Under normal circumstances, the harvest here should be the most.
"Go to the middle."
Haruhiko raised his hand and pointed.
Utsunomiya Minami was still at the front.
As she approached the door, she suddenly opened her eyes.
A fog appeared out of nowhere.
Whoosh.
A dark shadow struck her.
Utsunomiya Minami reacted quickly.
The wings on her back spread out and closed in front of her.
The black shadow revealed its true appearance, it was a dagger.
It hit the wings and was immediately bounced back.
Utsunomiya Minami's wings suddenly shook.
The black feathers were like sharp swords, shooting out one after another, chasing the dagger and disappearing into the black mist.
She frowned slightly.
All feathers are gone.
And the dagger was missing.
"behind!"
Utsunomiya Mina reminded loudly.
Utsunomiya Minami jumped up and flew into the air.
He narrowly dodged another attack with the dagger.
Because this failed, the attacker's figure was also exposed.
He was wearing a black tight-fitting combat uniform and a mask on his face, looking extremely mysterious.
But luckily he is not the fifth level, but the fourth level.
After the attack failed, the attacker disappeared instantly.
"Do it."
Haruhiko took out Hongluan and said.
This is not a competition, there is no need to talk about martial arts.
When facing an enemy, it is only right to resolve the siege as soon as possible.
"You each take a position and force him into the middle."
Utsunomiya Mina took over the command and gave the order.
The four people behind him nodded immediately.
Perhaps sensing the danger, the attackers accelerated their attack.
Huge spiritual energy came from the mist.
Utsunomiya Minami's eyes narrowed and she flew higher without hesitation.
The next second, the dagger appeared again.
This time there was a creepy atmosphere.
Utsunomiya Minami didn't dare to use her wings to catch him head-on.
She leaned back, her red lips slightly opened, and the invisible wind turned into a sharp blade and hit the dagger.
There was a bang.
Utsunomiya Minami was forced back by the strong wind and waves.
She can be sure that even if the attacker is the fourth level, he is still the best among them.
But she has more teammates.
Two bright blades of light struck the figure that appeared due to the attack.
This is the spell of the two fourth-level swordsmen of the Miyamoto clan.
Utsunomiya Mina quickly chanted a few spells.
The spiritual energy turned into a heavy current, trapping the dagger firmly.
Utsunomiya Minami was immediately out of danger.
She flapped her wings, followed the light of the sword, and flew out into a rainstorm of feathers.
Seeing this, Haruhiko also activated the skills on Hongluan.
Anyway, get some assists and get some psychic energy.
Red phoenix and phoenix!
The sword energy turned into a phoenix, setting off scorching heat, and suddenly flew out.
Utsunomiya Mina stood closest and could naturally feel the amazing power.
She looked at Hongluan in surprise.
I didn't expect it to be a fourth-level spiritual tool.
Among spiritual tools, weapons are undoubtedly more precious and rare than other parts.
And she smelled a familiar scent.
Tsuchimikado Mahri.
