Chapter 42: One Hundred Demons Picture Scroll

Uesugi Kiyoshi was not in a hurry to find ways to cross the sea to visit Tokyo.

He now doesn't even know what benefits the dream mirror space can bring to the extraordinary people. Akutagawa Ryunosuke only vaguely mentioned that "it can enhance the inspiration of the extraordinary people", but now he has to guess what inspiration is.

Probably. The ability to see ghosts and gods?

He wasn't sure, but he felt it was pretty close.

The unknown is always the most dangerous. Anyway, if this is his dream space, Tokyo will not run away, so he can go and take a look whenever he wants.

At least he should wait until he sees the master tomorrow and consult his advice. Otherwise, if he goes to Tokyo and wanders around in the dream world, he might accidentally offend some powerful ghost or god, and then a monster that will reduce his san value at a glance will appear in his dream world. Uesugi Kiyoshi can't stand this.

So, he thought about it, and the gray fog rose again, surrounding the island layer by layer. Then, he walked towards the mirage.

After a hard day's work, now is the happy time to reap the fruits of your labor.

The candlelight in the mirage is bright, and the scroll of one hundred demons is still vivid.

This time, Uesugi Kiyoshi had enough time to figure out what had happened to the Hundred Demons Scroll and what the Yingcao demon spirit was used for.

He stood in front of his self-portrait and observed it carefully, and found that himself in the Hundred Demons Scroll was surrounded by countless gray mirages.

He had an idea in his mind and stretched out his hand. The mirage in the painting was pulled out directly from the scroll of a hundred demons like a dragon sucking water.

Feeling the unusual concentration of mirage energy, Uesugi Kiyoshi's eyes lit up. This was definitely the mirage energy he absorbed after killing Yokotano.

It turns out that these mirages are stored in the Hundred Demons Scroll, and can be used at will, right?

This is much freer than before. Before, when he absorbed the mirage, he had no options at all and could only passively strengthen his physical fitness. Even when he awakened the Inugami, he couldn't even choose the two Hundred Tales Cards. They were all arranged by the Hundred Demons Scroll.

Just when he was a little confused and didn't know how to use the mirage, a familiar thought came into his mind.

"A sufficient amount of mirage energy has been obtained, and the basic capabilities of the Hundred Demons Scroll have been restored."

This is the stream of consciousness of the Hundred Demons Scroll that he has always used as a system.

Along with this thought, countless information and knowledge rushed into his brain, causing him to frown in pain.

It took Uesugi Kiyoshi a lot of time to sort out this sudden knowledge, but the proportion of time in the Mirage is different from that in the outside world, so he was not in a hurry.

Ten minutes later, Uesugi Kiyoshi slowly opened his eyes, with an ambiguous light flashing in them.

If the Hundred Demons Emaki is compared to a game, Uesugi Kiyoshi has already fully understood the game after reading the "strategy" for ten minutes.

It turned out that what I had played before was just a trial version with incomplete functions. Because the gap in the "Mirage" that drives the Hundred Demons Scroll was too large, some major functions were not unlocked.

After killing Yokotano and absorbing the high concentration of mirage that came from nowhere, the Hundred Demons Emaki was completely awakened.

The reason why he was able to drive the gray fog that surrounded the entire island was also due to this reason - in the past, no matter how strong his will was and how hard he tried, he would not be able to glimpse the world outside the Town of Hundred Demons, because this gray fog barrier was not under his control at that time.

For example, at that time he was not at the right level and had not unlocked this function.

Of course, these are not the main courses.

The most significant changes are still in "Demon Soul" and "Hundred Stories".

According to the information conveyed by the Hundred Demons Scroll, this Hundred Demons Town is the territory of "the lord of ghosts and monsters, the king who leads the Hundred Demons' Night Parade."

It can be considered a "treasure".

When Uesugi Kiyoshi traveled through time, this treasure for some unknown reason became bound to his soul, and automatically recognized him as its master, allowing him to enter the extraordinary world in one step - when he first came to this world, he could stab an evil ghost to death with a fruit knife, and this was all thanks to the Hundred Demons Scroll.

This thing is so powerful that it can allow a mortal to instantly possess extraordinary abilities.

At the same time, mirages have countless magical uses, and changing the flow of time is just one of them.

The greatest function of the Mirage Tower is to suppress "hundreds of ghosts and evil spirits".

It is said that all the monsters in this scroll of one hundred demons are related to the former lord of demons and monsters. Some are his loyal subordinates, and some are powerful enemies sealed by him.

And this former lord of demons and monsters can use the "supernatural powers" of the hundreds of demons under his command through the Hundred Demons Picture Scroll. In Uesugi Kiyoshi's view, these are the cards of the Hundred Tales.

However, along with the time travel and the fusion of the host's soul, the Hundred Demons Scroll suffered a certain degree of damage. Many demon souls were lost, making it somewhat incomplete, and some functions could not be used.

In this situation, if Uesugi Kiyoshi still wants to use the abilities of the hundred demons in the scroll, he must retrieve those scattered demon souls.

There are two ways: get the recognition of the Demon Soul Linker, or kill the Demon Soul Linker.

Because "Yingcao" was a former subordinate of the Lord of Demons and Goblins, when he met Nohara Anko, the Hundred Demons Emaki did not give Uesugi Kiyoshi the option of "killing her".

However, there are more than just Yingcao lost demon souls. There are also many more troublesome guys, including "enemies".

In order to complete this picture, we may have to go through a bloody storm.

Strictly speaking, Uesugi Kiyoshi is the successor of the Lord of Demons, the new Chief of the Hundred Demons, and the owner of the Mirage.

He pondered it for a while, and a strange idea came into his mind.

He didn't know whether the Hundred Demons Scroll came from the world before he traveled through time or the world after he traveled through time, but he had a feeling that it might have come from the world after he traveled through time.

Because there are ghosts and gods wreaking havoc everywhere here.

That “Lord of Demons and Goblins”, sounds very much like ghosts and gods!

Could it be that after traveling through time, I accidentally inherited the mantle of a certain ghost god? !

Doesn’t this scroll of a hundred ghosts come from the card game I was playing before I traveled through time?

If you think about it carefully, it makes sense. This thing is not like the systems in those novels that issue tasks and provide rewards. In comparison, the idea of ​​the Hundred Demons Scroll is more like a "spirit of an instrument."

So will this thing have some effect on me? Those ghosts and gods can take over other people's bodies and be reborn!

However, I have been here for so long and have not found any problems.

Gee.

Uesugi Kiyoshi sat cross-legged in front of his self-portrait, stroking his chin, sorting out the information and thinking about countermeasures, but he really couldn't figure it out.

There was no way. He already had enough understanding about the Hundred Demons Scroll, but he was still confused about the original owner of the Hundred Demons Scroll.

He simply stopped thinking about it. If an enemy comes, he will fight back. If water comes, he will block it with earth. The worst that can happen is that he will just draw his sword and fight. The winner will live and the loser will die. He had this awareness in mind on the first day he held the sword.

Uesugi Kiyoshi raised his head, without any hesitation, and waved his hand. The thick mirage in his hand flowed like a river returning to the sea, and poured into the portrait of the Dog God on the Hundred Demons Scroll.

There are eight cards in total of Inugami's Hundred Stories Cards.

Currently, Uesugi Kiyoshi has only unlocked two cards.

As this mirage was injected, three more cards lit up next to the mighty Inugami.

At the same time, Uesugi Kiyohuke came to his senses and suddenly punched to the side.

The fist was so powerful that it broke through the air with a loud bang. The power of this punch was beyond his expectations.

His physical strength and speed were enhanced again!

Chapter 43 Physical Strengthening

Uesugi glanced at the five lit-up cards next to Inugami, and saw a somewhat familiar card face.

He went over the effects of these cards in his mind. They were all very powerful abilities, but he was not thinking about them at the moment.

This card is exactly the same as the card in the game Hundred Stories in my previous life.

There is no mobile game of Baiwen Card Game in this world.

Coincidence? There can't be such a coincidence.

If it's not a coincidence, then this is very interesting.

Or, in other words, there were also supernatural powers in the world of the previous life, but I, as an ordinary person at the time, didn't know about it?

That's the only explanation.

I have no clue if I think about it any further.

The known information was too scarce, so he couldn't draw any valid conclusions or even make any inferences.

Shaking his head to clear his mind, Uesugi Kiyoshi began to move his body. He wanted to try his best to adapt to the sudden increase in his physical fitness. This kind of thing had happened several times before, but this time he could clearly feel that his physical fitness had been greatly increased.

Kiyoshi Uesugi was very interested in information about martial arts. After all, Tokyo was an international metropolis, and Kiyoshi Uesugi could often get flyers for martial arts schools and boxing gyms. In order to attract customers to learn, those businesses often gave out free tickets to open classes. Kiyoshi Uesugi would occasionally go to listen when he was free on weekends - he didn't go to attend the classes, but to test his physical fitness.

Those middle-class fighting clubs usually have matching testing equipment - such as punching strength testing machines. Apart from this kind of club, Uesugi Kiyoshi doesn't know where there would be such a thing as a force testing machine for him to use.

According to the data from the last test he went for, on average, the power of his right fist fluctuated between 130 kilograms and 140 kilograms - when the onlookers saw this number, their eyes almost popped out of their heads and they all looked at Uesugi Kiyoshi as if he were a monster.

Compared with those of professional boxers, this data is not much exaggerated. The tough guys in the UFC Fighting Championship have a hook punch force of more than 2,000 pounds, which is nearly one ton of strength. The record of leg sweep is even more exaggerated. The record that Uesugi Kiyoshi found is 2,800 pounds, which is more than 1.2 tons of strength.

He didn't pay attention to these things in his previous life, so he didn't know if there was any difference between the records in this world and in his previous life, but his strength was not enough to be considered in the professional boxer circle.

But he was only sixteen years old, and this was not the professional circle. Not to mention that his punch was not a full-strength attack that had been accumulating power for a long time. It was just an ordinary hammer-pushing move in Bajiquan. If it was really used in actual combat, he could throw more than twenty such hammer-pushing punches without losing strength.

A punch of 140 kilograms can easily kill someone in a fight. The human body has many vulnerable parts that cannot withstand such a heavy punch.

The last test was three months ago.

Now.

Uesugi Kiyoshi swung his fist again, and a whistling sound of fist wind exploded in the air.

He didn't have a machine to measure the data, but based on a general sense, he felt that his strength had increased more than three times.

If he remembered correctly, Akutagawa Ryunosuke said that after Yokotano became a mystic, his physical fitness increased by about three times.

This makes sense. Yokotano must have become a mystic because of these mirages, and all of these mirages were intercepted by Uesugi Kiyoshi, so he also gained the same benefits.

As for why Uesugi Kiyoshi was able to enhance his physical fitness by absorbing mirage energy, the Hundred Demons Emaki also gave an explanation.

Up to now, all the mirage energy that Uesugi Kiyoshi has obtained, except for the necessary consumption for repairing the Hundred Demons Scroll, has been invested into the demon soul of "Inugami".

These mirages light up Inugami's Hundred Stories Cards and also trigger Inugami's characteristics.

In previous games, each different Shikigami had different characteristics.

Among them, the characteristic of Inugami is that every time Inugami increases his "magatama level", he can add a "physical and mental training" card to his hand.

The effect of the card "Mind and Body Training" is to "permanently increase the Inugami's attack power and health by one point."

As mentioned earlier, reality is not a game, and this characteristic has changed, but the essential core has not changed.

Increasing the level of magatama has become injecting mirage energy, and the effect of tempering the mind and body has become directly improving Uesugi Kiyoshi's physical fitness.

Before all eight of Inugami's cards are lit up, Uesugi Kiyoto can improve his physical fitness by investing mirage energy into Inugami's demon soul.
