Chapter 613: Hand Blade
The news completely shocked them.
"What? Wait, it's already a day? Why don't we know? When we set off, the Orochi was still parked in Shangjing Bay." Qian Meng was puzzled.
"Wait—what's the date today!" Lu Jing was equally astonished.
"July 31." The medical staff said in a suspicious tone.
"Time and space are messed up! We came on the 28th, and the two days in between were skipped." Lu Jing was taken aback.
"No, no! There is no 31st day in July! July 31st was stolen by the Goddess of the River, and it became July 0th!" Qian Meng would repeat the reading in a hurry.
"There are always 31 days in July." The medical staff said in a reasonable tone.
"Wait, wait! I'm confused..." Qian Meng turned to look at Lu Jing and the others.
"What? There are only 30 days in July and August. Who made a mistake?" Lu Jing frowned.
"Yes, there are only 30 days in July." Linyin who was lying on the ground was also anxious. Although her injuries had not recovered, she couldn't help emphasizing, "Have you all forgotten...the data in the file does not have the number 31." Record... the calendar..."
"July has always had 31 days." The medical staff emphasized.
"Then take it as it is." Lu Jing gave up.
"No, no..." Linyin was so angry that his wound almost opened, "July only has 30 days!"
"By the way..." Qian Meng came back to her senses, "It must be because we defeated the goddess of the river."
She thought about the previous situation.
When Falosa's Godslaying Sword Qi roared out, the entire anomaly was shattered, and the golden power of time flew outward, as if returning the disordered time to this world.
In this way, the whole world has restored the history of 1 day.
When Qian Meng recalled July 31 last year, she finally vaguely remembered what she had done that day. She stayed in the virtual warehouse for a day.
"So that's how it is, and now it's back to normal." Qianmeng recalled, "There was indeed July 31st before, but the Goddess of the River took away everyone's memories of that day, so everyone forgot about the 31st." Yes, but in reality, we were doing normal things on the 31st and we just forgot about it afterwards. So our calendars don’t have a 31st, and everyone’s memory of the day is gone! Even scientists and physicists Scientists can't detect this obvious change! This is the power of the goddess of the river... completely covering people's understanding of the laws of nature, and allowing us to close loopholes."
As the power of the Great River Goddess further dissipated, their cognition was gradually corrected, believing that the world has 364 days.
"So we saved the 31st day, we gave everyone an extra day in summer vacation, and the 1 day that can be remembered, the world has become 364 days." Lu Jing said happily.
"But no one will be grateful to us! How could it be like this! We made everyone's summer vacation an extra day, but no one is grateful to us! Because they take it for granted!" Qian Meng really couldn't laugh or cry.
"We can find a way to defeat the goddess of the river one more time, and we can save August 31st, and this world will become 365 days!" Lu Jing became more and more excited as he thought about it.
"But... we will be affected by this next month. After August 30th, for 24 hours, we can't remember what we did! This is too scary!" Qian Meng went back to the future.
"No way..." Lu Jing shook his head. This is the rule and revision of the rules of the world by an ancient mystic. They can't be angry with a rule or a law.
In any case, after this severe injury, the Great River Goddess will have to wait at least several decades or even centuries before she has the chance to return to this world.
Qian Meng turned her head and saw that Miying and the others were already walking towards the city.
"Going back so soon, Miying?" Qian Meng waved.
"Catch the traitor." Miying has already received the news from Jialongpo that Ozuki Zengsuke broke his oath to rebel and became the target that must be hunted down and eradicated. The entire Jialongpo has been put under martial law.
"Yes... it's time to kill Ozuki Zengsuke." Lu Jing also received the message.
She looked up, and saw that the huge arm of the river goddess had been bound by the shuttle with high-strength steel cables, and was lifted high into the sky, loaded onto the Orochi, and prepared to be transported back to the northern archipelago as their most important spoils of war.
With this arm, Faroza-sama will probably wake up from her dream.
The torrential rain continued.
This rain will continue until August 10th, and the River of Golden Cicada will continue to swell, and the tide will be higher than in previous years. It seems that the river itself is mourning the severe injury of the goddess.
A whole part of her limbs was removed, which was probably the biggest loss for her since birth.
After the Battle of the Goddess of the River ended, relevant news spread in the city of Jialongpo, which excited the citizens.
In the past few days, they have been deeply troubled by the doomsday theory. Many spies of the Great River Servants are secretly spreading panic, claiming that the Great River Goddess will come, and the only way out for everyone is to make sacrifices and nourish the power of the Great River Goddess, otherwise they will suffer to destruction.
However, the recovery ceremony of the goddess of the river was interrupted by the corporate intervention army!
Although they had some quarrels afterward in order to compete for the remaining limbs and arms of the Great River Goddess, they reached the best ending overall. The lives of most ordinary people were saved, and they could continue to live and maintain a stable life.
After the Orochi delivered the goods, it drove back to Jialongpo.
The narrow and advanced high-speed airship is very deterrent, and it has a visually stunning effect from the appearance.
Especially at night, whenever people look up, except for dark clouds and heavy rain, what they see is a huge ship hull with bright white lights and bright red warning lights, which creates an invisible sense of order in people's hearts and makes them subconsciously China dare not pick quarrels and stir up troubles.
No matter what you do, you will consider in advance whether it will attract the thunderous power of the empty ship.
The same is true for Ozuki Zensuke, whenever he looks up, he will see the shadow cast by the Orochi, covering his whole body.
On the night of August 3rd, he got into an unmanned taxi with a simple camouflage off-road bag on his back. He looked extremely pale and weak, but he kept a scrupulous silence as before.
The rain was falling on the nearby streets and buildings, so heavy that it hit his eardrums like high and low drumbeats.
Looking up, behind the dark low alleys is the brightly lit core city of Jialongpo. The towering hotels and commercial buildings can almost touch the height of the skyline. The neighborhood is as bright as day, and there are singing and dancing every night, and the excitement will never end.
It had been a long time since he hid in XZ in Jialongpo East, and Zengsuke Ozuki hadn't returned to the light for a long time. He watched this scene, completely distracted, until he was awakened by the electronic notification sound.
"Jialongpo Express Rental Company is at your service. Sir, where do you want to go?"
"Drive forward 50 meters." Ozuki Zensuke pressed his forehead.
The taxi drove forward for a while and stopped. He opened the door and looked at the open space for a while.
The old poet should have appeared.
He left a password for the old poet to meet here. If he didn't show up, it meant that the situation in the city was too dangerous and it was inconvenient for the old poet to show up.
Now the old poet really didn't show up, which shows that the situation is too bad.
Fortunately, even in the worst case, the old poet has a backup consciousness file and a cloned body in the company alliance, and the old poet can be resurrected no matter what.
It's just that Ozuki Zensuke was completely alone.
The terminal of the stolen leaf is getting hotter and hotter. Oborotsuki Zensuke blocked its positioning module with a signal shielding device, but the old poet couldn't show up, and it was useless for him to hold this.
The airport is blocked, the bay is guarded by warships, and by land, it takes at least 200 kilometers to reach the strongholds of other company alliances.
With nowhere to go, as the Oathbreaker, he is hostile to all forces of nature and will be strangled by the jungle if he leaves the city.
The oath of the Lord of the Forest is so strong that no one can ever survive a betrayal.
Not only is the wilderness forest in the outskirts full of murderous intent, but Oborozuki Zensuke also lives an embarrassing life of hiding in the city. The rats whisper and expose his tracks, the strong wind almost blows away his soul, and the heavy rain damages his skin.
When he walks in places with stagnant water, he will feel that his feet are bound by the water, and he cannot walk normally at all.
The oathbreaker is not long. Ozuki Zensuke understood.
Ozuki Zensuke thought for a while in silence, then he simply walked out of the car door and entered the deep alley.
He walked aimlessly through the labyrinth of alleys for more than ten minutes, and finally stopped at a small late-night shop selling cheap coffee, where he bought coffee and took a sip to relieve stress.
In order to test how hostile nature is to himself, he bought a lot of cat food and fed it to the stray cats in the alley. There were dozens of them, and they lived together on the dustbin to avoid the rain.
He fed them cat food, and the stray cats ate the cat food, and even gnawed off one of Oborotsuki Masuke's fingers.
I am really... at a dead end.
The rain was so heavy that many places were completely submerged, Masasuke Oborotsuki turned his head and saw the waves of rainwater rushing in, just like big waves on land.
"I've never seen such a scary thing in my life..." said a mechanical body sitting on the threshold.
"It came to look for me." Ozuki Zensuke got up, swiped his card to pay, and then walked towards the noisy street.
After he entered the commercial street, the incoming rain tide hesitated at the entrance of the alley.
Oborotsuki Zensuke stood on the concrete aisle, turned his head to look at the swelling waves, and then looked at the camera suspended on a high place, which had turned to the direction of Obscure Tsukisuke.
Running is fine, but Oborotsuki Masuke is already planning to take a good rest.
He walks along the street.
Ozuki Zensuke looked at his cash card, and there was 78,000 left in it. He came to a trading machine and donated the money to a studio in Shanghai that specializes in hero animation, commemorating the positive effects of those images on him .
The rest of the time, he sat out of the rain and listened to music.
A few minutes later, he heard a dog barking, and turned his head to see Snowball running out of a park, followed by Shadowseeker who looked like a shadow. The pursuers have arrived, and they have been following Ozuki Zengsuke for a long time.
found himself. Ozuki Zensuke put the camouflage bag on the ground, the old poet could not come on time, this terminal will only become his burden, and he can only find a suitable cemetery.
Immediately afterwards, he ran unhurriedly towards the port area.
Snowball crossed the street, picked up the camouflage bag bag in its jaws, looped the straps over its head and dragged it away.
"Woof!" it called to Miying.
"I'll go after him." Miying walked through the heavy rain wearing a raincoat, chasing Ozuki Zengsuke all the way.
He seemed to be mocking Miying, he was able to leave at will several times, but deliberately slowed down at a few nodes to give Miying a chance to catch up with him.
Oborozuki Zensuke finally stopped on the slender pier.
He turned his head and looked into the distance in the cold air.
Jialongpo's giant anti-landing artifacts used to prevent stowaways are still on display in the sea waves, withstanding the repeated impact of the waves, the searchlights emit a huge white circle of light, sweeping back and forth on the sea surface, making people nervous, and the edge areas are distributed Checkpoints, telescreens, and bulletin boards were used to prevent anyone who didn't know what to get in or out.
"You saw it too, you are trapped here, you are doomed!" Miying pulled out the ion sword "Shadow Kill".
Ozutsuki Zosuke raised his head, blood was streaming from his face.
Only then did Miying see that since Ozuki Zensuke entered the rain, his body began to bleed, as if thousands of razor blades fell from the sky instead of water droplets.
"This rain will last until August 10th." Oborozuki Zensuke said.
"You're dying." Miying saw Ozuki Zensuke's frustrated look.
"Now even the air has become my enemy, bitter and poisonous." Ozuki Zensuke's voice was hoarse.
"Fortunately, I don't need to breathe." Miying said, "You are a shameful traitor, you deserve this kind of fate, the price of betraying the oath is so high."
"I'm only loyal to humans, forever." Obscure Tsukisuke turned his head to face the sea.
The wind sliced his cheek, the rain eroded his body, and the sea water waited to take his life.
"You will be destroyed if you continue like this. You can surrender and spend the rest of your life in the shelter. We will design a shelter that is isolated from the natural environment." Seeking Shadow stepped towards Obscure Moon Zengsuke. Capturing this guy alive is also valuable.
"My life expectancy is less than a year. It is very hard for ordinary people to become partners of justice." Oborotsuki Zosuke raised his eyes and looked at the magnificent city.
His eyes are full of color, so beautiful. In the past hundred years, human beings have completed the technological progress that the witches have not completed for thousands of years. The total amount of matter produced in one year is equal to the sum of the past thousands of years.
The precious achievements of civilization and the noble human spirit are all condensed in the dazzling brilliance before him.
"Look, all of this will be taken over by the new god and the more powerful witch." Ozuki Zensuke pointed to the light ahead.
Miying turned his head to look at City Lights, Jialongpo is indeed beautiful.
"Our witch is very powerful." Seeking Shadow knew that Farosha was very, very strong, and had reached the critical point of awakening.
"I am powerless to prevent this from happening. The witch's boots will step on human faces, and many people will accept this ending willingly."
"You are a member of the company alliance, you are Onimusha!" Miying reacted.
"The matter is now a foregone conclusion. Your intentional or unintentional efforts have nurtured a supreme authority that cannot be violated, and handed over our fate to an ancient witch." Obscure Tsukisuke sat cross-legged on the ground.
Too much bleeding.
With his oath broken, the entire natural environment has become his enemy. Obscure Tsukisuke's skin had been eroded by the rain, and nature punished the Oathbreaker in its harshest way.
"You killed Hosoda Yoshiyuki, you are a bastard. Go away with peace of mind, and I will continue to resist mysterious monsters, protect human beings and uphold justice." Miying walked in front of Ozuki Zensuke.
"You can't resist the ancient witch."
"She is no longer an ancient witch, she is a witch from the Cyber Age." Seeking Shadow said.
Ozuki Zensuke remained silent.
By the pier, the sea is constantly churning, and the tide is rising, ready to drag away the body, mind and soul of Ozuki Zengsuke.
"It's going to kill you." Miying looked at the rising sea around him, the Lord of the forest dispatched nature to hunt him down, and all traitors had to die.
"Yes, and the last right of a person is to deal with one's own life." Oborozuki Masuke said, looking at his knife.
He then stabbed his stomach with a samurai sword and cut it horizontally.
"Let's do it." Ozuki Zensuke murmured.
She waved "Shadow Killer", the wave of ion flames swept across the cold wind, and the head of Ozu Moon Zengsu fell to the ground.
