Infinite Terror: This Middle Continent is Rebellious

Chapter 227: Mechanical Maru was the first to be caught...

"Mr. Wen Lie, please break the domain. A special-grade curse spirit that can expand the domain is still too difficult for a spellcaster below the special grade."

Seeing the field unfolding in front of her, Angehime's face was solemn but not panicked, after all, there was a special-grade sorcerer beside her.

There is no sorcerer who cannot defeat a cursed spirit of the same level - the level 2 genius sorcerer Megumi Fushiguro is an exception.

Wen Lie raised his head and said coldly: "Don't panic, there is another special-grade one outside, there is no need to compete with them."

The thick black fog was approaching quickly from afar like a strong wind.

When An Geji looked closely, she was immediately horrified and goose bumps appeared all over her skin.

What is that black fog? It's clearly cockroaches!

Tens of thousands of cockroaches swarmed together, and the black pests flapped their wings, creating an extremely terrifying atmosphere.

An Geji, Mikami, Zhan Lan, Zhu Wen, Ming Yanwei, and Miao Ruoling all had ashen faces.

Lingdian, Zhang Heng, Ba Wang and others also twisted their bodies in discomfort.

Although cockroaches are not very dangerous, they can cause physical discomfort to people. No one is not afraid of seeing cockroaches in their own home.

What's scarier than a cockroach? A nest of cockroaches. What's scarier than a nest of cockroaches? A nest of flying cockroaches.

"If it were any other special-grade cursed spirits, I would leave them to you. But not this time. I will use the shortest possible time to eliminate all these cockroaches."

Wen Lie raised his fist, his eyes were extremely cold and full of disgust.

He has no interest in the weak. In the world of Jujutsu Kaisen, only Ryoumen Sukuna in his prime and the Great Curse Spirit that has never appeared before are worth looking forward to. The other enemies can be left to others to deal with.

But cockroaches are so disgusting!
The fourth-level gene lock was activated, and the raised fist was extended forward. With a calm punch, golden light was released from the fist.

The golden light was like ripples on the water. Waves appeared on the water surface and the ripples flowed forward, covering the swarms of cockroaches.

In just a moment, thousands of cockroaches were burned to ashes by the ripples.

Just at this moment, a black figure with a cockroach head fell from the sky, holding a strange machete, and chopped down at Wen Lie fiercely.

Wen Lie avoided the slash, swung his arm and slapped the back of the machete. The power of the hand knife was concentrated in one place, making a crack in the machete, and the figure of the cockroach head was also blown away by the power of the hand knife.

Special grade cursed spirit, Hei Mu is dead.

A hybrid magic sword of life and death, the Rotten Sword.

The cockroach man who suddenly appeared is a special cursed spirit that is more powerful than the herpes god.

Angehime and Mikami could both sense how powerful Heimushi's cursed energy was. The moment Heimushi appeared, the cursed energy he emitted made the two of them tense up.

However, in the next second, Hei Mu Si knocked Wen Lie away, and the oppressive feeling from the special level disappeared instantly.

"Blind! Blind! Blind!"

Hei Mu, who was knocked away, formed seals with his hands and summoned two fat flying insects.

However, at the moment when he performed the technique of Earth Worm Stabilization, Wen Lie had already arrived in front of Hei Musi.

Wen Lie had no intention of playing house with the cockroach. With murderous intent, Wen Lie did not give Hei Mu Si any chance to display his full abilities. Hei Mu Si was essentially a magic user, and the time it took to form a seal was too long for a strong man above level three.

As soon as the ritual was completed, Hei Mu Si took Wen Lie's fist.

Golden ripples emanated from Wen Lie's fist, and the intense heat melted and evaporated everything it touched. Before Wen Lie's fist touched Hei Mu Si, a large hole in Hei Mu Si's body was burned by the ripples.

This is also what Wen Lie wants. Hei Mu's body is made up of cockroaches. If Wen Lie touches it, he will have to spend three minutes washing his hands with soap.

In less than three seconds, Hei Mu died under Wen Lie's fist and completely disappeared.

"Kill the special-grade cursed spirit Heimusi, obtain a D-grade side story, and 1000 reward points."

Seeing that Wen Lie had already killed the strongest special-grade one, the others also sped up to eliminate the remaining cursed spirits.

Zhang Heng pulled the bowstring hard to shoot the wolf. The string was full like the moon, and an extremely powerful aura arose spontaneously.

"Wind Arrow!"

The arrow, which condensed all the strength of the body, pierced through the two level 1 curse spirits in an instant. The power bursting out from the arrow shattered the bodies of the curse spirits.

At the same time, Zhang Heng's body fell down due to exhaustion, and the Wolf Shooting Gun fell to the ground, but he didn't even have the strength to hold the bow.

Zhu Wen used Aten's Hand of Light, and a red sun disk rose into the sky, extending glowing tentacles to interfere with the activities of the cursed spirits.

Bullets, arrows, wind blades, everyone's firepower was concentrated, and the remaining cursed spirits died one after another. Before the Herpes God's domain disappeared, all the troops deployed by Noose here had been wiped out.

Tagore's territory, with its blue sea, white sandy beaches and lush forests, can be called a top-notch resort.

Julian closed his eyes, and his mental chains connected the minds of Nozomi, Rokuko, Hanami, Masato, and Reinhardt. The scene taking place in the suburbs of Kyoto was presented in everyone's mind through mental scanning.

1000 soldiers, including special-grade cursed spirits, were completely wiped out within three minutes. This scene moved everyone.

Zhenren asked Louhu, "You easily defeated the special-grade one, even though he was just a small fry. Was it that fast for Gojo Satoru to rip your head off?"

Steam erupted from Roku's head. He glared at Masato, then turned to Nozomi and asked sternly, "That guy...! Geto Suguru, who is he? Kujuku Yuki? I heard there's a special-grade sorcerer who's left the world of sorcery and has been active in other countries. Is that him?"

It is hard to say who is stronger, this person or Gojo Satoru, as he was able to kill a special-class compatriot so easily. Are all special-class sorcerers in the world of sorcery at this level?
Nozomi said calmly, "That's not Kujuku Yuki. She's a woman and hasn't returned yet. This one is a top-grade sorcerer from a foreign country. Their technique is unknown, but they once defeated Gojo Satoru in a friendly match where neither side suffered much injury."

Although Nozomi's tone was calm, his expression showed a sense of solemnity and relief. "You beat Gojo Satoru?!"

Lou Hu opened one eye wide in shock.

Nozomi carefully explained, "He used Domain Extension to neutralize Gojo Satoru's Unlimited Power, and then used Domain Expansion to counteract Gojo Satoru's Domain. Without either side having any intention of risking their lives, he defeated Gojo Satoru... This is how it should have happened, but that sorcerer didn't know how to expand or extend his Domain, so I don't know how he defeated Gojo Satoru. However, the speed with which he killed Hei Mu Si also shows that, regardless of whether he and Gojo Satoru used their full strength in the battle, he was indeed as powerful as Gojo Satoru."

The man with his eyes closed smiled slightly, and after Luosuo finished speaking, he took over the conversation: "However, there is a 60% chance that this power will be a short-term burst and not last long."

The real person asked curiously, "Why?"

Julian asked, "Will you deploy your domain right at the start of the battle?"

Hua Yu shook his head.

Louhu said, "Of course not. After deploying the domain, the spells originally engraved in the body will be unusable for a short period of time. Moreover, deploying the domain also consumes a lot of mana. If it is not a decisive moment, deploying the domain will not be worth the effort."

Julian tapped his forehead with his finger and said calmly, "If you had looked carefully just now, you would have noticed that the people from the Zhongzhou team did something that went against common sense."

"That seemingly nonchalant man had the needle inserted into his body from the very beginning. After the needle was pulled out, his body twitched. The little girl's explosive power was very strong, but the curse spirit didn't hurt her. Her injuries were all self-inflicted. The same thing happened with that man. His mental state was good, yet he suffered serious injuries. However, those injuries had nothing to do with the Herpes God's spell. The archer's condition was even more obvious. His body lost strength after firing an arrow. Their physical reactions are not fake. In other words, they used explosive power from the very beginning, which would have harmed themselves and could not be sustained. That's why they performed so brilliantly."

Louhu, Hua Yu, and Reinhardt recalled what they had just seen. It was exactly as Julian said. The people from the Zhongzhou team seemed to be fighting desperately with someone, and they used self-destructive tactics as soon as the fight started.

Julian laughed and said, "That's not normal. There's an old saying in the country next door: 'Even a lion will fight a rabbit with all its might.' But when the enemy is overwhelmingly numerous, and you're unsure of their strength, or whether they have ambushes, there's only one reason to go all out from the start. To use that country's military tactics, it's like blooming on a tree."

Several cursed spirits and Reinhardt were all confused. Louhu repeated awkwardly, "Flowers on the tree?"

Reinhardt said impatiently, "Shouldn't flowers bloom on trees? Don't take it for granted. Who doesn't know that flowers bloom on trees? I also know that trees bear fruit and sprout."

Julian's mouth twitched, and his lips seemed to want to say those two words, but he held back.

Noose explained on Julian's behalf, "The 29th tactic of the Thirty-Six Stratagems is 'Flowering on the Tree.' The original idea is to exploit a situation to create a powerful force with a small force. Simply put, by leveraging a certain situation to create a favorable formation, even though the troops are small, they can appear powerful."

Living in this country, one is bound to be influenced by the Celestial Empire next door, especially in ancient times hundreds of years ago, when reading and writing were the only way to escape the culture and knowledge of the Celestial Empire.

Louhu asked in surprise: "Are they weak?"

There are four sorcerers who can quickly kill level 1 curse spirits, and there is also a special-grade sorcerer who can kill Hei Mu Si with one blow. If such a lineup is considered weak, then there is no powerful force.

The real person said with great interest: "Even if you are not weak, you can still make yourself stronger... How interesting, human strategies and military tactics."

Julian sneered, "The Zhongzhou team isn't weak, but they're not so strong that victory seems impossible. On the contrary, their strength will be a target for them. My theory is that the Zhongzhou team is planning to display their strength in a high-profile manner, shocking the enemy with a nuclear deterrent. Without a fight, they'll be forced to pay a price and surrender, thus reducing their casualties."

"From the battle just now, it's clear that, aside from their captain, the others are only averagely strong, with limited actual skill. That's why they're so reckless and desperately trying to put on a good fight, trying to intimidate the enemy. Unfortunately, their wisdom is limited. They don't realize that the more they do, the more mistakes they make. They tried to intimidate the enemy with their overwhelming strength, but instead exposed their own flaws."

Reinhardt casually brushed his hair and said disdainfully, "Humph, these Orientals may be cunning, but they are just some clever tricks. They can't hide anything from us."

Julian twitched his lips and complained silently in his heart.

Is it your turn as an idiot to say this? If I hadn't noticed the suspicious points, you would have been scared away long ago.

Louhu slapped the table and asked, "Even if we know they're using tree sprouts to disguise themselves as stronger, what can we do? That person's strength is real, and Gojo Satoru's strength is also real. How can we deal with them?"

A sneer curled up the corner of his mouth. "The plan for the 31st has been canceled and moved up to the day after tomorrow. As for how to deal with them, I've already given them such a powerful handle through the mechanical pill. We only need an opportunity, and the General Directorate will naturally help us."

In a reservoir outside Kyoto, deep in a spacious warehouse, a young man covered in bandages suddenly felt uneasy.

He vaguely felt that something bad was about to happen.

Is Geto Xiayou going to kill him to silence him?
This was a matter of course, and he was prepared for it.

Armored Puppet·Ultimate Mecha Maru·Prototype No. 0!
By activating the Ultimate Mecha Maru and using the cursed energy stored over the years, he can possess the strength of a top-grade sorcerer.

Even Geto Suguru has a chance to defeat him.

"Oh!"

Suddenly, the door exploded, and sunlight shone into the dark warehouse. More than a dozen figures appeared at the entrance of the warehouse with their backs to the sunlight.

Seeing the man in the lead, Mechanical Maru's expression suddenly changed.

"Diva teacher..."

He clearly planned to lead Teacher Geji to some other place, so why did Teacher Geji find this place?
Without a chance to think about it, Ange looked at Mechanical Maru with a sullen face, and the sorcerer who was specifically designed to deal with him immediately came over.

When two sorcerers grabbed him in the warehouse, Mechanical Maru panicked and shouted, "I'm here to exorcise the cursed spirit. What are you doing?" He punched and kicked him, struggling desperately.

The sorcerers at Tokyo Jutsu High School were all very skilled, and Mechanical Maru was quickly subdued by them, with his arms twisted and taken out into the sunlight.

Here, Ange who was waiting for him read out the arrest warrant for him. Before Ange finished reading, Mechanical Maru suddenly roared, broke free from Kugisaki Nobara's restraints, and controlled the puppet to pounce on Ange who was five or six steps away.

Mechanical Maru used to be a quasi-level 1 sorcerer and practiced puppetry. If he pounced and injured Angehime, how could this be tolerated?

Angehime is a veteran of many battles, and she watched Mechanical Maru's crazy actions calmly and coldly.

At this critical moment, the sorcerer on the side reacted quickly, rushed forward, knocked over the puppet, threw Mechanical Maru to the ground, held him down tightly, and handcuffed him.

During the arrest of the traitor, Robotamaru was the only one to be handcuffed. After his arrest, Robotamaru was interrogated the most rigorously.

At Kyoto Jujutsu High School, the students who heard the news changed their expressions and rushed to the interrogation room immediately, hoping to find out whether Mechamaru was wrongly accused.
