Chapter 74: The Headquarters of the Demon Slayer Squad

In front of the train station.

Lucia and Purgatory Kyojuro meet again, planning to go to the headquarters of the Demon Slayer Squad.

"Before you go in, hide the knife on your body."

Even the very heroic Purgatory Xingshou Lang didn't speak in a loud voice that could be heard by the guards, but just whispered to Liu Xia.

In the Taisho era, the ban on knives has been in vogue for decades. In this era, except for the royal family members, police and other social professionals, all civilians are not allowed to wear knives.

It’s okay in some small cities in the countryside, but in the big cities of Tokyo, especially in key places like train stations, if you are still carrying knives swaggeringly, it is easy for the police to invite you to drink tea.

Although the Ghost Slaying Squad is an organization to obliterate evil spirits, it is actually not an official army recognized by the government and is not protected by national policies.

Liu Xia nodded, and outside the train station, put the two knives at her waist into the suitcase she was carrying in her hand.

Among the two packages he carried, the violin case on his back was mainly filled with sniper rifle parts, high-explosive grenades, and the blood of the ghost king. In the suitcase, besides some tents and ropes, there were also A few pieces of jewelry.

With the size of the suitcase, it is enough to put a few knives in it. It is worth mentioning that the two titanium alloy knives he brought from [Xingyue World] were also put in the luggage because they were not useful. in the box.

After the two hid the knife, the guards at the station did not embarrass them, and quickly let them in.

The checkpoints of this era are far from being as strict as those of later generations, and it is easy to get through.

"Let's take the train to the nearest city first, and then walk to the headquarters of the Ghost Killing Squad. Regarding your actions and experiences this time, the Lord has a lot of questions to ask you. After the matter is over, you will come home with me." .”

On the train, Purgatory Xingshoulang said to Liu Xia: "By the way, I see that your breathing rhythm is not disordered at all. You should have learned the skills of [Complete Works·Chang Zhong], right?"

"Maintaining the rhythm of the breathing method is the technique called [Complete Concentration·Changzhong]? If so, then I have indeed learned it."

Lucia said so indifferently.

After the final selection, because she saw this technique from the girl swordsman who used the Breath of Flowers, it took Liuxia two days to fully learn it.

However, although this skill can keep him in a high explosive state, it doesn't actually increase his strength much.

After all, his physical fitness has already reached ten times that of ordinary people, and he has reached a height that many swordsmen cannot reach using breathing methods. Ordinary breathing methods are actually not very effective for him.

This is the same as the original [Magic Reinforcement], when he was still weak, [Magic Reinforcement] could increase his strength by more than half, but after his physical fitness became stronger, in addition to enhancing his vision and hearing In addition, [Magic Reinforcement] has no effect at all.

The same is true for the breathing method. With the continuous improvement of the spirit base template after Liu Xia, this skill may also be eliminated.

However, the breath method itself enhances the explosive power of the body, not to increase the level of the ability value, but to correct the ability value with a [+] sign, which is not the same strengthening method as [magic power reinforcement]. Therefore, after his physical fitness is completely It should be enough for him for a long time before he becomes abnormal.

Moreover, although the effects of basic breathing methods such as breath of thunder and breath of water are no longer very good, if Liu Xia can create a breathing method comparable to [Initial Breath], it will be another level. said.

This is also the reason why Liu Xia is now obsessed with wanting to create her own breathing method.

For him, the old breathing method already needs to be eliminated.

"Really? Sure enough... Well, you are already so strong,

In terms of strength, it is really difficult for me to help much..."

Accompanied by Purgatory Xingshoulang talking to himself, the train gradually started to move, making the sound of 'clang clang clang clang'.

…………

The headquarters of the Ghost Killing Squad is in a deep mountain.

This position, even in the Ghost Killing Squad, is a top-notch secret. Except for the high-level pillars of the Ghost Slaying Squad, few people can come here.

Under the leadership of Purgatory Xingshoulang, Liu Xia followed into this deep mountain.

"This is the place where the leader of the Demon Slayer Squad—the Ubayashiki Clan is located. The current patriarch is the current leader of the Demon Slayer Squad."

"Although our pillars also have their own families or residences, we will live here for a large part of the year. On the one hand, it is convenient to mobilize as soon as possible when necessary, and on the other hand, it is also beneficial for us to protect the lord!"

"Not far from here is the [Butterfly House] where [Chongzhu] Hu Diejin is located. Chongzhu is a famous master of poisoning and detoxification in the ghost killing team. The butterfly house led by her is also used to treat injured ghosts. If you are injured in the future, you can also go to the Butterfly House to seek treatment from Hu Die."

"Okay, ahead is the headquarters of the Demon Slayer Squad, the residence of the Ubayashiki clan!"

Among the deep mountains.

Because the season is close to late autumn, many leaves on the mountain have withered. Under the bleak autumn wind, the branches and leaves are swaying with the wind, making a "rusting" sound, which is refreshing.

Liu Xia followed Purgatory Xing Shoulang, and came to a mansion in the deep mountain that was full of nobility but not luxurious.

The mansion does not occupy a large area, its length and width are no more than 100 meters, it can be said to be low-key compared to the real big houses of this era, and the towering ancient trees growing in the courtyard can be seen from outside the courtyard wall.

Walking into the courtyard, you can see a wide courtyard paved with smooth white gravel and a pool of moderate depth in the courtyard. The old evergreen tree is as high as a three-story building, stretching out its branches. Beyond the courtyard wall.

A young man was sitting in the corridor, wearing a white feather.

Surprisingly, the part of his face above the nose has been severely disfigured, with irregular lines like insect skin growing on his skin, and even his eyes have lost focus, obviously he has been blind for a long time.

With a gentle smile on his face, although he was sitting there, he was not sitting upright, but hung his legs outside the wooden boards in the corridor, looking very approachable.

From his body, Liu Xia could barely feel the aura of being a martial artist, he seemed to have no martial arts skills at all, and his whole person had a weak aura as if he was seriously ill, as if he might fall to the ground if the wind blows.

"This is the current leader of the Demon Slayer Squad, the leader of the Demon Slayer Squad on top of all the pillars, the lord that Purgatory Kyojuro said?"

Looking at the weak young man not far away, Liu Xia couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

He also thought that as the leader of all the swordsmen in the Demon Slayer Squad, he was probably a powerful swordsman whose strength far surpassed that of ordinary people, at least he should be able to rival Zhu.

But the man in front of him doesn't seem to have any martial arts skills at all, and his frail body seems to be incapable of even swinging a sword. Is this man actually the leader of the entire ghost killing team?
