The Great Seminary

Chapter 374 Without madness, there is no life

According to Zhang Gui's idea, among the two thousand or so old, weak, sick and disabled rabble from Yingri Kingdom, there were some noblemen who were also the most easily swayed hot-blooded youths.

It's normal to create some bloody and shocking scenes to intimidate one's mind and achieve or partially achieve some delusional goal.

However, the more than two thousand soldiers, who were barely clothed and starving, had all received Japanese "Bushido" education, and it was absolutely impossible for them to commit seppuku on a whim.

That's why, after being provoked, he slowly watched as the Japanese committed suicide one by one in front of him.

The plan is to wait until the 'elite' part is completely dead, leaving only the cowardly minnows who don't have the courage to disembowel themselves, and then enjoy a good show of 'steamed pig's heart'.

Unexpectedly, all the Japanese people were right in front of him, kneeling down in rows like a string of candied hawthorns, and committing seppuku.

Except for the initial dozen or twenty individuals who possessed the power of shikigami, they were entirely 'self-reliant'.

The rest were all summoned by Uesugi Kazehakō, each consisting of a winged snow tiger. Ice blades condensed in the void, serving as 'hidden swords' specifically for disemboweling, cutting open the stomach.

"How could a normal country possibly find so many 'antisocial personality disorder' lunatics?"

It must be some kind of mind control spell or supernatural power.

However, the 'Divine Cluster System' within me has already collapsed.

However, the abilities of the Divine Cluster were all retained, among which 'Destiny of Gray and Black' is a means specifically designed to summon omens of doom.

So many people were forced to commit suicide by magic. No matter how secretive the method, it would definitely generate resentment and sorrow. But there was none, or perhaps...

In his previous life, Zhang Gui came from an academic family and later fought his way up in the business world. Although he couldn't compare to his achievements in this life, he still managed to achieve some success and was used to using his brain.

Feeling that things had turned out differently than expected, I couldn't help but start speculating in a daze.

Just as I became alert, I suddenly saw that the bright sun shining over the harbor was shrouded in a thick layer of red fog.

Countless plump, blood-red lips sprouted from the void, merging into one and possessing the nearby Uesugi Kaze Byakko, whispering:
Izanagi issued a decree of great joy, saying, "I have fathered many sons and obtained three noble titles."

It is a necklace bead made from the magatama on the goddess's neck, which is shaken to make it ring and bestowed upon Amaterasu Omikami.

He then issued an edict: 'Your command is to govern Takamagahara.'...

He also issued an edict ordering Susanoo to be his subject: 'The sea plains shall be under your command.'...

Ultimately, the name was chosen from the Neck Jewel, the God of the Granary Board, and the decree was issued by Tsukuyomi:

"Your command is to govern the food source of the night," and so the night source was granted to govern...

As the mysterious incantation was recited.

The sun in the sky was devoured by a giant celestial dog wearing a straw raincoat.

A crescent moon slowly rises at the horizon...

Just then, a sinister voice rang out from the deathly silence of the real world.

"Damn it, are you trying to play Kotoamatsukami on me? Die!"

A giant hand appeared out of nowhere, grabbed Uesugi Kazehakko, and crushed him into a bloody pulp.

In the distance, within a dark gold conical hat the size of a flatbread, standing upright, the exquisite face of Abe no Seimei emerged.

"He truly deserves to be called one of the heroes who rose to prominence in this era of great strife."

"A fool like Uesugi Kazehakō is no match for him at all, hehehe..."

Then, as the mystery subsided, the red fog in the entire Fengyu Port disappeared, the eerie moon vanished, and the blazing sun reappeared.

When everything returned to normal, the 'Tuan Shaobing' had turned into a handful of ashes.

With everything settled, Zhang Gui returned to human form from his giant form.

With a somber expression, he looked around and saw that all the people of the True Dragon Kingdom present were lying on the ground, their fates unknown.

The Japanese who had committed suicide had countless long, thin eyes and mouths growing on their corpses.

Those who were still alive had burned away their life force, leaving only skin and skeletons; all remaining flesh and organs had become the 'fuel' to initiate the ritual. "In this extraordinary world, are their minds and spirits also 'extraordinary'?" he muttered to himself with a strange expression.
"I thought that as one of the many transmigrators, I was born with a clear understanding of life."

Even before he reached the highest level of power, he had already begun to sever all emotional ties and personalities, making him a ruthless person with an extremely hidden selfishness from birth.

Who would have thought that in this extraordinary world, a time of great strife, 'lack of emotion' is merely a standard feature of ruthless heroes!
To achieve immortality, one must truly be "obsessed, or else one cannot live." How interesting, how interesting…

Using the power of divine authority to connect the elements of rules, he instantly teleported back to the Guiyang Palace.

As the old saying goes, one should remain calm in the face of great events.

There is also the saying, "He who can remain calm even if Mount Tai collapses before him is worthy of being appointed a general."

So on that day, Zhang Gui, as if nothing had happened, gave a long-awaited public speech in Longyangjing.

The next day, they conducted military drills and mustered troops at the Great Parade Ground, keeping them busy until evening.

It wasn't until dinner that Song Wenhua, Gui Sang, and all the other top officials of the True Dragon Central Committee were summoned to the palace to begin 'table politics'.

Knowing that Song Wenhua and Gui Sang were truly starving, even though they were already subsisting on air and dew and not eating human food.

Zhang Gui remained silent, first munching on two sweet peaches, then drinking a large glass of refreshing iced fruit wine.

After watching everyone finish their meal, suppressing their hunger even if they weren't full, she wiped her mouth with a snow-white cotton handkerchief and said:

"Lord Song, what has become of the soldiers and police officers who perished in Fengyu Port, Zhumi City, Bilong Province?"

"Your Majesty, fortunately, there were no casualties."

However, many suffered inexplicable mental trauma, resulting in madness or dementia.

Song Wenhua replied with a solemn expression:

"Fortunately, Your Majesty, you are becoming increasingly extraordinary and possess supernatural powers. You are also blessed by Heaven, making you impervious to all laws. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Gui Sang's eyes widened to the point of almost bursting, and he gritted his teeth and said:

"Your Majesty, I deeply feel that the Yingri court has gone so far as to be insane and outrageous that it has angered both Heaven and the people!"

The more than 300,000 soldiers of the "Rebirth Army" under the command of the True Dragon, all of whom knew of his sinister deeds, were on high alert and ready to fight at any moment.

"We await your command to annihilate this breakfast feast!"

In fact, given their wisdom, experience, and honed knowledge, how could they not see the strangeness of the 'Fengyu Port Incident'?

The Japanese and Ming dynasties fought until the lamps were extinguished and the oil was used up, leaving the nation's strength exhausted.

Therefore, he sent an envoy to his half-true ally, Zhenlong, under the pretense of 'borrowing troops'.

In reality, they were initiating some kind of mysterious ritual, attempting to control the true dragon emperor using spiritual mysticism.

Even if it cannot be maintained indefinitely, as long as the True Dragon Army engages in battle with the Ming and Song dynasties and initiates a national war, it will be extremely difficult to stop.

This seems to be interconnected and logically sound.

But the most illogical thing is that it's too 'interlocking', especially in today's delicate situation.

If any link in the chain goes wrong, it will bring utter destruction to Japan!
In reality, this means that the fate of Japan, which has lasted for millions of years, has been placed in the hands of a mere upstart like Uesugi Kazehakō.

It’s simply the most ridiculous thing in the world!
However, the one who perished was the true dragon emperor. Let alone being attacked by rituals, even if some delusional person from the Japanese Empire spat on him.

For a subject, this is a crime of "the ruler's disgrace is the subject's death," an absolutely unforgivable offense.

Therefore, Lao Song and Lao Sang Gui, as Zhang Gui's highest agents in the True Dragon Kingdom, one civil and one military, respectively.

In this situation, at this moment, I can only express my extreme indignation and my readiness to fight.

It is impossible to make any other moves.
