This is a mountainous area with green mountains and green waters.

Liuxia stood on a dirt road in the countryside, surrounded by seedling fields exuding a strong rural atmosphere, with clusters of rice stalks and fertile land.

Looking far away, there is a clear ditch not far away. There are traces of gaps in the ditch, which should be used to irrigate the seedling fields.

A few kilometers away, there is a green and lush mountain range covered with towering old trees, with purple petals that hardly bloom in this season. Looking around, the sky and plains are full of gorgeous Pink-purple and natural turquoise are in perfect harmony with each other.

This is a view that is hard to see in the modern times seventy years later.

In 1995, the island country embarked on the fast track of economic development at the cost of destroying a large amount of natural environment. All you can feel in the city is always the hustle and bustle.

But the island nation of this era has not yet embarked on that path, and is in the transition stage from a feudal society to a capitalist society. Although there is already a rudimentary form of modernity, technology is far from being modern.

There may be imported products such as electrical appliances and steam trains developed from the West in big cities, but the general rural villages are far from exposed to these. walk life.

"The Taisho era, from 1912 to 1926."

Standing on the dirt road in the countryside, Liu Xia turned her head to look around her surroundings, while digesting the [common sense] of the world code-named [Demon Slayer: Blade] transmitted to her mind by the [Unnamed Spirit Base].

"Different from the general world, this world has creatures called 'ghosts'. Ghosts mainly eat humans. They are creatures that have existed since thousands of years ago and have irreconcilable contradictions with humans."

"While there are ghosts, there are also swordsmen who hunt and kill ogre ghosts with special techniques. The organization that manages these swordsmen is called [Demon Killing Squad]."

"In this world, I am an orphan whose parents and family have all died at the hands of evil spirits."

Liu Xia silently chewed the information in [Common Sense], and deeply felt the convenience given to him by [Unnamed Spirit Base].

Without the common sense given to him by the [Unnamed Spirit Foundation], it would take at least ten days for him to obtain this information, and he may not be able to find it yet.

Compared with this [common sense], the identity given to him by the [unnamed spirit foundation] seems a bit worthless.

It’s not that identity is worthless, it’s just that in this era where technology is not as good as modern times, even the population of a country cannot be fully investigated, and identity itself is useless. If you make up nonsense, no one will doubt that the value is far less than common sense. big.

"The task of renewing the spirit base is to let me join the Ghost Slayer Squad. To join the Ghost Slayer Squad, I must pass the 'Final Selection' held in Fujishiyama. As long as I pass the final selection, I can become a member of the Ghost Slayer Squad and get Lots of convenience."

Lucia silently thought about her next plan.

It is imperative to join the ghost killing team, not to mention that this itself is a requirement for the renewal task of the spirit base,

Liu Xia wanted to get information about the evil ghosts, know the location of the 'Twelve Ghost Moons', and complete the two tasks of raising the spirit foundation, and also needed the information support of the Ghost Killing Team.

"In any case, first find a way to join the ghost killing team, and then use the ghost killing team's information network to find information about ogre ghosts. In the process, wait for the opportunity to learn the unique ghost killing skills of this world."

Thinking like this, Liu Xia turned her gaze to the mountains not far away.

"According to the information given by [Anonymous Spiritual Foundation], this place is only a few miles away from Fujishiyama where the final selection will be held, and the final selection will also be held tomorrow."

[Two Ceremonies] once said that the [Unnamed Spirit Base] would send him to a relatively accurate time-space axis, and it seems that he is indeed right, this time and place are indeed the most suitable first choice for him to complete the task.

Lucia turned her head and glanced at the horizon.

At this moment, the sun was setting, and the brilliant rays of the sun dyed the earth golden yellow, which gave people an extremely dazzling feeling at first glance.

Liu Xia mobilized the little magic power in his body to focus on his eyes, and used [magic power reinforcement] to magnify the vision of his eyes several times in one breath, and he could see clearly the scenery two kilometers away.

"It's not far from Fujiji Mountain. At my speed, even with luggage, I can arrive within half an hour."

Liu Xia silently calculated the route and time, "Tomorrow is the day of the final selection, so tonight there should be quite a few alternate members of the Ghost Slayer Squad rushing here from all directions."

This is an opportunity.

Night gradually fell.

The bright moon like a jade plate hangs in the sky, shining bright moonlight on the earth.

This is a rare full moon night. Although it is not as bright as a modern city full of neon lights, the light it sheds is not so bright that people can't see their fingers.

Lucia dragged her suitcase and came to a dilapidated ancient temple on the edge of the hill.

Because of the long history, the ancient temple has long been dilapidated, and even the wooden gates have collapsed and hung crookedly there, but fortunately, the interior is still intact, barely able to block the cold wind at night.

Liu Xia took off the piano case on her back and the double knives on her waist and put them aside, opened the suitcase, took out a lighter from it, and lit the dry wood collected from around.

It wasn't until the firewood pile was lit up, illuminating the ancient temple, and enough to guide passers-by, that Liu Xia sat aside, took out mineral water and compressed biscuits from the suitcase, and ate them.

Although he has become a [Servant], his body is still human, and he still needs three meals a day and sleep.

Among the ancient temples.

While the swaying flames released warmth, it also illuminated Lucia's face.

In the wild at night, if you walk alone, you will easily feel afraid of the dark surroundings. When you see someone lighting a fire, you will unconsciously approach and join them.

This is a symbol of the grouping of human beings, a proof that human beings cannot stay away from the group.

"In this way, we should be able to attract one or two alternate members of the Ghost Slayer Squad..."
