"Have I ever told you that you are my clone?" Genya Shigure said.
Shigure finally lowered his head and thought about it.
"No." He said calmly, "But I conducted the investigation on my own before, so I already knew it."
"Ah" Genya Shigure nodded clearly, "You are worthy of being my son, and worthy of being myself."
He shrank his head and smiled evilly, just like a naughty old father telling his son dirty jokes. "Then why don't you betray me?"
"..."
Shigure finally condensed the sword of justice in his hand. He pointed the tip of his stabbing sword at his "father's" neck. He adjusted the position of the sword tip slightly, as if he was looking for the best angle to kill him without causing pain. He seemed to have finally found his bearings, and the sword of justice was raised like lightning!
The blade of the sword did not touch Wataru's skin, but brushed against his hair. Shigure finally raised the hilt of the sword and struck his father's head gently.
winter.
"Ah, it hurts!" Shigure Genya cried out, holding his head, "You unfilial son!"
"I also have emotions, father." Shigure finally said seriously, "You still doubt me until now, which makes me feel very sad."
"Do you really think of me as your father?"
"You gave me the best education, the best living environment, and let me take charge of your business. You told me stories, took me to watch TV, listen to songs, and took me to the amusement park, where my brother and I Sisters communicate...you make my life happy, then you are my father.”
Shigure Genya rolled his eyes: "Hey, is that enough? What about blood relationship?"
"The word father means more than blood, right?" Shigure finally said.
"That's right..." Genya Shigure yawned, "There's no point in being connected by blood."
His eyes were confused, as empty as the eyes of a dying person. Every part of his body was melting and recovering at an extremely fast speed. Under the power of the curse balance, the tug-of-war between healing and curse killing was repeated. Every moment was as painful as hell... Fortunately, he had already adapted. got this feeling.
Genya Shigure weakly raised his hand and patted the Lord of Hidden Rhythm beside him.
"Master Chi was stopped by the Guilty Spear, you can get out."
His hands patted Lord Yinlu's face, again and again. Snap, snap, snap. The force became stronger and stronger, and the sound was almost as loud as a slap. Everyone will feel angry because of this, even close friends cannot make fun of her like this.
But the world-creating envoy in black didn't see any movement. He just stood there quietly and allowed him to be humiliated. He answered mechanically: "My mission is..."
"Show some shame, old man." Genya Shigure said with a sneer, "After all, you are a world-creating magician, but you are really willing to be a formless puppet? I feel embarrassed for you."
"Wataru..." There was no emotion on Yinlu's dull face.
Shigure finally observed his father's expression carefully. He always felt that Genya had an emotion other than ridicule when he said this, and there seemed to be intense fire hidden in his eyes. It was not hatred... but like anger.
But just when he had this association, the emotion in Genya Shigure's eyes suddenly disappeared. The half-smiling expression appeared on his face again, and he spoke kindly like an old friend.
"Your mission is accomplished, now leave."
The Lord of Hidden Laws said no more. He stood up and walked outside the shrine, hiding in the jungle in the mountains. Shigure Genya exhaled, as if he was relieved.
"Father." Shigure finally stopped talking. But he couldn't hide his words after all, and asked frankly: "Are they your friends?"
"That's what you think." Genya Shigure smiled.
He ruffled Zhongyi's hair and returned to his usual ruthless attitude.
"They're in the net. Stop Gongsun Ce from drawing his sword at all costs. Don't let Shigurei curse me. There's no need to specifically target Shigurei, she's useless."
"understood."
"The timing of the transfer of authority is up to you."
"Understood. Please take it."
Shigure finally activated the Space Phase Technique, and he handed the integrated terminal like a remote control to Genya Shigure.
The butler-like young man once again grasped the sword of justice. He walked out of the shrine and struck a glorious blow at the red spaceship that entered the range!
·
"Abandon ship and behead him! Kill him immediately!"
Gongsun Ce jumped out of the damaged spaceship first and led his two teammates towards the shrine not far away.
At the top of the long mountain path is a torii gate that was burnt black. Behind the torii gate are the dusty ground, broken bricks and stones, and the ruins of the main temple that were burned in the fire. The sword light that destroyed the spaceship shot out from the entrance of the shrine. Shigure finally stood at the door, holding a sword in one hand and preparing for the arrival of everyone.
"Reiichi, put a curse on Genya Shigure!"
"I tried, but the one I contacted was always Shigure Suichi." Rei Shigure looked serious, "The contact has been transferred. This is... the ability of the Reiji!"
Gongsun Ce used telekinesis to drag the two of them down. He used his white matter to firmly block the shots of the Sword of Justice, and tried his best to close the distance between Shigure and Suichi. The three of them fell in the splashing rain of light, and the distance between them and Shigure was reduced to about 100 meters.
This time, the young man dressed as a butler stepped on an imperial-style formation at his feet. Silk threads made of light sprouted from his feet, faintly forming a compass-like pattern. Inside this compass are the eight trigrams and heavenly stems rotating clockwise, but the outside lacks the proper earthly branches and solar terms, and only densely packed silk threads extend across the entire shrine like a spider web.
Gongsun Ce had some impressions of this thing. He had been exposed to related miscellaneous studies before.
"What is this...the semi-finished product of the Four Pillars of God?"
The four pillars refer to the year, month, hour, and day of a person's birth, which are represented by the ancient chronology of the heavenly stems and earthly branches. Each pillar can be divided into two characters, which are commonly known as the birth date and eight characters among the people of the empire. The gods and evil spirits are good luck and evil evil spirits. It is said that they are the stars that together with the four pillars influence the fortune telling. In the past, fortune tellers and Feng Shui masters relied on these mysterious and mysterious numbers to predict good and bad luck.
This stuff used to be popular for a while, but later it was swept into the garbage dump of history as the empire promoted anti-superstition and promoted modernization. Now young people no longer believe in this. Gongsun Ce didn't even expect that he would see such a half-finished product on Lingdao. It was a fortune-telling chart designed by the people of Lingdao.
"Not bad, young man. I didn't expect you to recognize this!" Someone's excited voice came from behind Shigure Zhongyi, "The four pillars of evil spirits, star numerology, this is what Yongguang uses to tell fortunes. I help Ling When the design of the temple was revealed, I made some slight changes, using my will to replace the heart of heaven, and human destiny to dominate the national destiny, to create this four-pillar universe network. Although it is ugly and has no aesthetic appeal, it is still very practical after all!"
The moment Gongsun Ce heard this voice, he reached out and stabbed himself in the chest. He had no intention of talking nonsense to Shigure Genmi and waiting for him like a fool. He wanted to draw his sword in one breath and kill this bastard completely. kill.
But his arms were frozen, unable to move as if they were being controlled. Gongsun Ce noticed that Shi Yu in the distance finally made the same action as him. Shi Yu finally slowly took his hand away... and Gongsun Ce's hand also dropped! The super-powered person immediately changed his mind. He used telekinesis and white matter to hit his chest, but this time his attacks missed him, as if they were being pulled by invisible threads and passed him by. Shigure Reiichi just wanted to help his friend out, but found that his own movements were also frozen in place.
"Motion control and attack diversion?!"
"There is also a certain range of future predictions, but there is no attack capability." Shigure finally answered all questions, "Essentially, it is the manipulation of the causal line. The formation must be arranged in advance, and at a specific location To activate it. Therefore, I didn’t use Sister Lingsi’s ability when I just said hello.”
Rei Shigure grabbed the immobilized teammates one by one and used Shadow Solan's teleportation to get close to the opponent. The Four Pillar Universe Net's abilities seemed unable to limit Kage's movement, so Rei Shigure's tactics paid off positively. But after Shigure finally realized this, he increased the output of the Sword of Justice. The sword light cut through the trees, destroyed the wooden walls, and completely eliminated the previous shield of the shrine.
"cough……!"
Shigure couldn't stop vomiting blood when he finally swung his sword, and hideous wounds continued to appear on his body, which were healed as before by the same power. Shigure Reiichi's expression was even worse than that of his younger brother, because while cursing others to death, he himself also had to pay the price.
"Shigure Shizuichi!" Rei Shigure shouted, "You——"
"I would fight for him willingly."
Shigure finally raised his stabbing sword, and the tip of the sword of justice erupted with a dazzling flash, and the sword light of Kong Xiangfa shot at the three of them like a laser cannon!
Gongsun Ce made a solid white wall as thick as a mountain, and he used telekinesis to push the barrier forward, like a wild bull pushing against the wall. The direction of the attack will be disrupted, so make an all-round attack that cannot be fine-tuned! He suppressed the mental power in his mind and forcibly built a second wall in the distance.
"Shigure Rei!"
"The inferior can't control my actions!"
The weak power of Narcissus made Shigure Suichi's movements freeze for a moment. Shigure Rei took the opportunity to hide in the shadows with the three of them, and appeared behind the second barrier. Now the three of them finally came to Shigure Suichi. They were standing at the door of the shrine. They could see the inexplicable smile on the man in white in the middle of the ruins.
"That's great!" Genya Shigure smiled happily, "No wonder my little princess fell in love with you. She looks so quiet, but is actually an unreasonable person!"
Gongsun Ce didn't take action, he couldn't move. Shigure finally gave up on healing himself when they were close. He used all the power of the Cursed Scale to restrict the movement of the three of them, and used the Four-Pillar Universe Net to restrain Shigurei from the second level of the curse. The power of the curse is related to distance. The three people coming to his side also means that he can issue a more severe curse.
Shigure was bleeding from all his orifices, and his heavy injuries caused his face to lose its previous elegance and look extremely ferocious. He could no longer stand and had to use his rapier to support his body, otherwise he would collapse from serious injuries.
But he was still conscious, and Shigure finally looked at the three "enemies" with no hostility in his eyes, only helplessness.
"I know he has done many evil things, but he has never owed me anything."
Shigure finally smiled bitterly. This mechanical young man looked no different from ordinary people at this time.
"He's my family...my dad."
This is the reason why he fights, and this is the source of Shigure's ultimate strength. He loved his family, his father. This love is heavier and more powerful than any other emotion, so much so that it can serve as the basis for the unity spell, allowing him to exert power far beyond that of any brother or sister.
Gongsun Ce was so angry that he almost vomited blood. He wants to say that you have been brainwashed, that you have been plotted against, and that your father is a fucking scumbag, but Shigure finally knew all this but still chose to help Genya Shigure, risking his life for it. If he had to risk everything, what else could he do? !
The advance setup of the Four-Pillar Universe Network, Shigure Genya's choice of combination and tactics of impermanence, and the blow that was delivered only after approaching the front... everything developed naturally, putting them in an embarrassing situation where they couldn't move. Maybe Rina or the ninjas will catch up in half a minute, maybe Shigure will be unable to hold on and fall to the ground in a few seconds, but now, within these few seconds, there is really nothing they can do!
Shigure Rei and Shigure Reiichi didn't speak. They no longer wanted to have any more words with this scumbag. They just wanted to blow his head off as soon as they escaped. Only Gongsun Ce roared with swollen anger.
"Damn you! Genya Shigure!"
Genya Shigure was still sitting in front of the money box, with no emotion on his face due to his son's serious injury. He drawled and said: "This is your first time to taste the feeling of being involuntarily? You have to adapt, this is Lingdao!" He laughed loudly, "Speaking of which, why are you angry? This is our first meeting. Isn’t this a family problem for our Shigure family?”
"How many unscrupulous things you have done!
"
Genya Shigure suddenly realized.
"Ah, it turns out it's empathy and a sense of justice! Very good, I like a passionate and righteous young man like you!"
His figure clapping his hands and laughing instantly overlapped with the past Shi Yurei in Gongsun Ce's mind.
"In this cruel and merciless world, you have the courage to give your love to others who have nothing to do with you. How naive and brave this is!"
Behind Genya Shigure, the main hall of the shrine shook like ripples. This strange phenomenon extended from his back to the entire mountain, making everything become as distorted as a dream. Shigure Genya seemed to have expected it. He was not too surprised, but he said it with a sense of pride, as if showing off.
"Are you curious? Want to know what I'm doing? The so-called God of Disaster Sacrifice is an offering to the Dragon of Void Light. After all, this thing is an insurance mechanism. It doesn't mean that if you don't make an offering, she will definitely come. It just means that she will not come if the festival is held. It’s just coming. So in order to make this arrival a sure thing, I have been racking my brain... what should I do?"
"Disrupt the place and time, simplify the ceremony as much as possible. Deliberately collect defective tributes, and do not collect the power that Yin Dou can sell, so as to prevent the original organizer from interfering."
"But this is not safe enough. I have to think of a way to make it come over and make it so angry that it will kill me first even if it comes in person. Therefore, I personally took the place of the miko."
Genya Shigure raised his finger, and there was a little golden light on his fingertip.
That is the good luck power called Napi that should be dedicated to the God of Fujin.
“It’s up to me, a guy who is hated by the gods, to hand over this year’s offerings to the Void Light Dragon with my own hands!”
The real world was shattered in the distortion, and a ferocious crack opened behind Genya Shigure. The crack penetrated the mountains, tore through the sky, expanded beyond Zero Island, and covered the aqua blue planet in his breath. About one-seventh of the area. The world behind the crack is like the night sky, with countless dazzling stars twinkling.
An object appeared in Genya Shigure's hand that he should never hold. That remote-control-like object was Shigure Suichi's "Shigure Plan Integration Terminal", an impermanence that can call upon all of Shigure's powers. Law.
The man in white stretched out his hand to hold down his hat. He looked at his "children", his eyes full of the fanaticism and ferocity of a gambler. His eyes were red and his breathing was rapid, like a madman addicted to gambling staring at the opening of the last game.
"Zero, Reiichi! Dad, let me teach you one last thing! It is the most difficult bet in the world to bet on a small fortune. If you want to have any chance of winning, you must use everything you have as a bet. Bet your money and status. , strength, future—and your life!”
The power that bound the three people disappeared in an instant, and Shigure finally took the initiative to remove all impermanent laws. He fell in a pool of blood and said in an inaudible voice: "Hulthy Jinri·Curse the Balance...the authority has been transferred."
So the ghost of the scales left behind him and stood behind Genya Shigure. That was his father, the initiator of the Shigure Project, and another "Shigure Final One"!
A golden-gray light spilled from the crack, condensing into a vortex of gold and gray. That was the vortex that Gongsun Ce once witnessed with his own eyes, the embodiment of the fate above Lingdao. Now this vortex has come from illusion to reality, and has become a giant celestial phenomenon that everyone can see with their own eyes!
The crack leading to the nameless starry sky has been closed, and the oldest god of Zero Island, the great being named Dragon of Void Light, has come to the real world. A long dragon's roar sounded from the center of the vortex, and even a young child could hear her rage from the cold voice. The terrible wind pressure destroyed the ruins of the shrine in an instant, swallowing everything into the whirlpool of fate. That power rolled up Shigure's broken body, and also made Shigure Genya, who was close to Chichi, fly into the vortex of fate.
Genya Shigure laughed and opened his hands, allowing the furious monarch to swallow him. The moment he came into contact with the power of the Void Light Dragon, he shouted crazily and placed the last big bet in his life on the gambling table.
"The price is my life and everything! The reward is to eliminate the remaining thoughts of the Void Light Dragon!"
This is the most powerful deal that Curse Balance can make, because the price a person can pay can never be greater than his own life.
Shigure Genya's body disappeared in the laughter, and the tilted curse balance made a soft sound.
Transaction complete.
