Help! I changed the gender of the male protagonist in the yandere game.

Chapter 172 The Evil God's Clone
Bai Jie also peeked inside and looked into several of the houses, but the scene he saw was still tragic.

These wooden houses were filled with dust, and the smell of burning and mildew mixed together. In the dark corners of the rooms, several human bones could be seen.

Yue Jialuo Yeming's face has become a little gloomy since she returned here. She should have also discovered human bones buried somewhere.

These were either the subjects of Yuejialuo's clan or the remains of her relatives and friends. For the girl, this was not a scene worth reminiscing about.

"Even though the territory wasn't large, with the castle town and several nearby villages, there were over a thousand residents," Matsudaira Inomaro, a retainer, sighed bitterly. "Only two hundred people escaped initially. Too many died in that one night."

When everyone heard this, they looked around the main city with a different look than before.

Even if there were corpses, there was still a thin mist floating around, and there was no sound around, so it seemed very quiet. However, hundreds of people lost their lives here a few years ago, so it could be said that this territory was a huge tomb.

Because they couldn't even sense the breath of vengeful spirits, they were afraid that the resentment of the dead should have dissipated long ago. However, after learning about the tragic situation here, everyone felt uncomfortable in their hearts.

"If possible, I hope to find an opportunity to bury everyone here properly."

Ye Ming said these words blankly.

There was a sad expression on her face.

"not now."

Old man Matsudaira shook his head.

"Our mission this time is just to explore this place, so we don't have the time. We'll wait until we reclaim our territory and then properly bury these people."

"Yes."

Baijie also came over to comfort the depressed girl.

"We can give the deceased a proper funeral later. But the most important thing today is to investigate the warehouse where the books are kept. I hope to find some useful information."

"Ok."

Ye Ming seemed to accept the comfort and his expression eased slightly.

She took a step forward and seemed to have found the library where the books were stored.

"This is the old library, it's in such a state of disrepair~"

The girl bent down and got in.

It is not a big house. It is called a library, but it is just a temporary storage room.

"What do you hope to find?"

she muttered.

He started searching in the house which had a big hole in it.

In fact, the place was in a complete mess. The piles of old books had turned into a pile of rotten papers due to the moisture.

Ye Ming searched for a long time but found nothing.

"Could it be that... Master Washizu didn't leave anything behind?"

Old man Matsudaira sighed in confusion.

"Honestly speaking, given the chaotic environment at the time, I really don't think he had the luxury of making any arrangements in advance."

"Is it possible that this was arranged in advance?"

Ayaka guessed quietly.

"Lord Ye Ming."

Baijie pretended to think, then offered a suggestion: "Try using the Eye. The power of soul-slicing is a power passed down from generation to generation in the Yuejia Luo clan. If the head of the family had made arrangements in advance, there should be some clues left behind. Moreover, this should be something that only you can detect."

In fact, according to the progress of the game, no matter which power Yue Jialuo Yeming awakens, it can play a role at this moment.

"If it's the power of her mother's clan that's awakened, we can use spiritual power to trace back to the past. Or if it's the power of the ancient demon king, we can also find clues."

Bai Jie thought that in fact, as long as he brought Ye Ming here after she woke up, she would find the clues herself. At most, he would just waste some time without giving any reminders.

"...makes sense."

Ye Ming nodded. She closed her eyes. Although there were some aftereffects from using the Eye of Awareness, they were not fatal. She still had some strength left to use. However, she definitely couldn't carry out a beyond-visual-range attack like she had last time.

Everyone calmed down, and several people stayed outside, keeping an eye on the movements around them.

After a moment, her eyes suddenly widened.

"I think I found it."

After saying this, she found a spot and started digging with her bare hands. As a result, she dug out a small wooden box from the ground.

"It seems that this should be something my father left for me."

Ye Ming did not open the box.

She didn't know what was inside, so to be on the safe side, she decided to take the things back first.

"Now that we have the things, there is no need to stay here any longer."

Renjo Senjuro smiled and said, "Let's return immediately... We can't stay here for long."

Suddenly, the small castle tower exploded.

A big hole was blown out of the eaves, tiles were shattered, holes were opened in the wall, and countless wooden pillars turned over.

This was the last intact small castle tower. Now it exploded due to some huge force, and the building collapsed to the left and right. With a loud bang, the wall was broken from the inside.

Crash! The sound of falling debris continued ahead, and smoke and dust swirled up, obscuring the view.

Heavy bass blared continuously. Dust blew downward. Everyone sensed something was amiss and quickly retreated to the rear.

The wind blew down from above, and the dust gradually dissipated. In the ruins of the small castle tower that was split in two, a dark shadow emerged from the white smoke.

"coming."

Baijie had seen this kind of appearance before in the game. Renjo Senjuro also realized it and opened his mouth.

"Could it be that... this is the evil spirit——?"

At this moment, the intense tension made everyone feel stunned, but at this moment, no one present turned around to look at him.

There was no room for that kind of leeway; the fear he felt from the pitch-black figure was simply overwhelming.

The other party's appearance was not that terrifying. It was not an alien-like being that appeared there, but a humanoid figure wearing a rag like a cloak.

The thing had human limbs and did not look like a demon. However, its face was dark, as if it was painted entirely black, and in the center of its face under the hood was a huge red eye.

Although it is not uncommon to feel strange, everyone present has witnessed various monsters with more ferocious and miserable appearances.

However, at this moment, no one can take action immediately.

Anyone could feel the evil energy released by the evil god's clone and the pressure from the red single eye staring at them, causing their bodies to shrink.

——Is this... the incarnation of the evil god Kotankoro Kamui?

"It's the 'Shadow of God', everyone be careful!!"

Hiiragi Hiruko spoke in a telepathic voice.

She has the bloodline of a "living god" and reacted immediately to this pressure.

'Son of God?'

The ferocious god wearing a cloak raised his right hand slightly, and roaring lightning sprayed towards him.

Hiiragi Hiruko quickly raised her hands, lowered her waist, and particles of light spread out, turning into cherry blossoms to form a solid shield.

Lightning struck it, shattering Sakura's shield and sending cherry-colored fragments flying everywhere, flashing and ringing like lightning. The force was like the charge of a wild animal, and the impact caused her to stumble back a few steps.

"Go!"

Baijie also moved.

Although he had suffered a loss in the previous fight with Zenzo, Baijie was not too tired. He gritted his teeth, shouted loudly, and broke free from his unrestrained body.

A pitch-black spear condensed in his right hand.

The next moment, he threw out the spear condensed from the energy of ghosts and gods.

"Oh oh oh!"

He cried out, roaring like a wild beast.

call out!
The attack was fast and fierce, and the black spear turned into a flash of lightning. This method should not be underestimated. However, the cloaked shadow of the god still raised one hand.

Just before the spear was about to penetrate and hit the opponent, the pitch-black spear came to a standstill.

In front of the evil god's clone's raised right hand, the spear condensed with ghost energy was trembling and unable to move forward.

"Multiple Curse-Returning Barriers?"

Ye Ming made a sharp sound.

She saw quite clearly that the evil god's clone had created multiple barriers, at least three layers of curse-return barriers, which blocked the pitch-black spear.

Kotankoro Kamui slowly clenched his fist, and the spear began to shatter, breaking into pieces and turning into specks of light.

"Close-range attack! Launch continuous attacks."

Renjo Senjuro shouted, "Don't stop, everyone! Attack, keep attacking!"

Bai Jie's figure moved first, and the shadow of the evil god did not hesitate at all. Its blood-red eye lit up, and the next second, its palm sprayed out fierce flames from hell. In front of everyone's eyes, the space seemed to be distorted, and a huge block of light with flames shot out from the depths with terrible momentum.

It was a fierce flame that exploded the moment it was ejected.

"not good."

Ye Ming stretched out his hand and activated the curse-returning barrier on his caged hand.

Hiiragi Hiruko also opened a physical defensive barrier without hesitation.

The ball of flames hit the barrier and exploded. The explosion and gust of wind that accompanied the flash of light caused the ground to shake violently.

The strong light and flames quickly dissipated in the air, and then hot winds blew from all directions, making it almost impossible for everyone to breathe.

Swish!
Baijie also rushed out at this moment.

He seized the opportunity at this moment and noticed that the curse barrier had been lifted.

"Is it to maximize the power of the attack and dispel the multiple curse-returning barriers?"

Baijie's mind was working fast.

Admittedly, if it is one's own curse-returning barrier, it will not completely erase one's own spells.

However, the curse-returning barrier will still weaken the wavelength of spiritual power emitted by itself and the power of spells.

In order to increase the power of the attack, the evil god's clone deliberately lifted the curse barrier.

He seized this opportunity and rushed out with all his strength.

Even the evil god's clone didn't realize that Baijie would react so quickly.

The moment the ball of flame burst into life, the red light was torn apart before the residual heat dissipated.

A warrior clad in jet-black armor emerged, scattering sparks through the flames. Even after nearly being burned by the infernal flames, his eyes never lost their gleaming fighting spirit, staring intently at the enemy.

A dark light appeared in Baijie's hands, and a spear made of ghost energy extended out.

With a roar like a wild beast, Baijie swung the spear in his hand.

With just this one strike, the left arm of the evil god's clone was torn off from the shoulder by the spear blade and flew into the air.
