Survive with the beautiful girl

Why? Isn't it more beautiful to watch fireworks in the dark? "

Chika Fujiwara was mumbling with her mouth full of octopus balls, and Hayasaka Ai was pointing at some trembling grass with a headache and explaining something in her ear.

Fujiwara Chika, who realized it later, blushed and ate up all the octopus balls on the bamboo skewer in a few bites, then angrily threw the skewer into the trash can.

"Are all couples so clingy?"

puff!

With the rhythmic sound, fireworks exploded above the head.

Golden fireworks shot up into the sky, people looked up in joy, and their excited screams and shouts drowned out Fujiwara Chika's complaints.

Liucheng and Shinomiya Kaguya stopped and stood side by side, their fingers intertwined again at some point, looking up at the fireworks scattered all over the sky.

bump--

Snapped--

Colorful flame flowers bloomed on the curtain formed by the night sky and the surface of Tokyo Bay.

Liu Cheng turned his head and stared at Kaguya Shinomiya who was staring at the sky in a trance. He looked at her longer than he looked at the fireworks...

Only Hayasaka Ai lowered her head, listening to the laughter around her, and staring at Shinomiya Kaguya's snow-white left hand holding Liucheng's bony right hand out of the corner of her eye.

Her mood became lost and depressed. She silently walked behind Liucheng and suddenly hugged him, hiding her beautiful face that was full of loveliness.

Chapter 267: Girls in the Library

Xiaoye gently pushed open the door of the Yanshe Middle School library. The white moonlight illuminated the fair face of Yukinoshita Yukino. The plain glasses on her nose made her look intellectual, and she looked more peaceful than usual.

The Evolution Park provides these survivors with a variety of complete and convenient functions in the form of a themed space, which is very good for killing boring time.

Xiaoye was rarely dragged into a "dream" by Liucheng tonight, and for a moment she felt a little uncomfortable.

For Xiaoye, sleep is just a way to kill the long time.

She had long been accustomed to being used by humans and abandoned after fighting with various monsters.

After witnessing the pile of corpses in the underground of the Healing Church in her dream, the twisted monsters that suddenly appeared and the humans who experienced misery made Xiaoye feel that she should do something for those poor humans in her dream...

Whether it is to kill the monster guarding the underground entrance, or to find a way to allow those who died unjustly to become Buddhas and be reborn.

"Aren't you going home?"

Xiaoye watched Yukinoshita Yukino reading quietly, squinting her eyes to study the words in the book, her slender fingertips gently running across the pages, reading the book spread out on the table, and occasionally taking a sip of coffee.

The sound of turning pages paused, and Yukinoshita Yukino looked up at the mysterious black-haired girl with double braids at the door. "She's reading the research records related to the Healing Church. Kasumigaoka and Jabami are doing the same."

The voices of the girls' discussion could be faintly heard from the densely packed bookshelves. Xiaoye looked at Yukino who lowered her eyes and stared at the pages again, and silently picked out a book on the teachings of the Healing Church based on the categories on the bookshelf. The book detailed the etiquette and procedures of the Healing Church's communion ceremony, and also promoted the benefits of "blood therapy".

She sat opposite the somewhat lonely Yukinoshita Yukino. The library was completely silent except for the occasional conversation between Kasumigaoka Utaha and Jabami Yumeko.

"found it."

Kasumigaoka Utaha was holding a thick book with some joy, and walked proudly from the bookshelf to Yukinoshita Yukino who was sitting at the desk. Jabami Yumeko curiously poked her head out from another row, and her demure face made people want to pinch it.

"Xiaoye is here too?

It's just right, you can come and see if the pattern printed on this book is the same as what you saw in your dream."

Kasumigaoka Utaha spread the thick book on the desk, and the girls quickly gathered around to study it.

"I have always wondered about the significance of the statue being built specifically for this purpose, and whether its theme is about some significant event in the development of the Healing Church..."

Xiaoye recalled her experience in the dream and tried to speculate: "The Healing Church cured people's beast symptoms through the means of "blood therapy" by studying Kos's posthumous child brought back from the fishing village, and the beast under the table is a metaphor for the suppression of beast conditions.

However, this method obviously still has problems.

Or maybe the purpose of the Healing Church is not simply to cure diseases through "blood therapy", they are trying to transform humans themselves and obtain the power of God by studying the corpse of God. "

Jabami Yumeko showed the timeline she had compiled to the others, "I did find some historical records about the emergence of beasts, which recorded in detail the process of the Yharnam beast disaster, and the more ancient ones seemed to be related to the decline of Luoran City.

I have a bold guess that "blood therapy" can cure various incurable diseases, but it is also the reason why humans become "beasts".

Xueno, how are you finding information on "blood therapy"? "

Xiaoye soon realized that the three girls were actually working together to study the information that Liucheng had collected from her dreams, and it was not exclusion as she had first thought.

"The Healing Church uses 'blood therapy' in a rather brutal and direct way. They dilute some special blood and inject it into the patient's body...

I suspect that the blood was obtained from the so-called "ancient gods". The human body cannot withstand the tremendous power hidden in the blood. The undiluted blood of gods will even pollute the human body and spirit, and directly degenerate into beasts.

Because of the different uses of God's Blood, the results on the human body are also different.

The Healing Church collected various types of blood, recorded and differentiated the experimental results of each type of blood, and discovered the differences in the levels of the ancient gods corresponding to each type of blood.

Low-level ancient gods will be controlled by high-level ancient gods in all aspects. As long as they continue to collect the blood of high-level ancient gods, they can cure the diseases or "beast transformation" caused by the blood of low-level ancient gods. "

After listening to Yukinoshita Yukino's analysis, Kasumigaoka Utaha speculated thoughtfully: "Perhaps it is precisely because of the effect of "blood therapy" that the Healing Church is so obsessed with humans evolving into gods."

Jabami Yumeko and Yukinoshita Yukino seemed to have grasped some key information. They stared at Kasumigaoka Utaha and asked in unison: "Evolution?"

"Don't talk at the same time. I can't distinguish your voices anymore."

Kasumigaoka Utaha rubbed her temples with a headache. She also figured out why these two were so excited. If it was linked to the Evolution Paradise, the clue would be very clear.

“Xiaoye, I remember you are also considered an ancient god, right?

After all, Jianzi was so scared when she saw you, would you like to give us some of your "blood" for research?"

Jabami Yumeko turned her head and stared at Xiaoye with interest, thinking about finding an opportunity to experiment on herself with the "blood therapy" techniques collected by Liucheng.

I wonder what changes will occur in my body after doing this?

“I advise you not to do that. The nature of Xiaoye’s blood is different from those of the ancient gods. On the contrary, the nature of my blood is somewhat similar to those of the ancient gods.

Her blood is like a key or "door" or "channel" to another world. Through this "connection", creatures from another world can possess objects, such as people, Buddha statues, animals, plants...

These possessed creatures were called "ancient species" by the ancients in our world. Every time she killed those monsters, it was like sending them back to the other world."

Liucheng's somewhat cold voice sounded at the door, and behind him followed Hayasaka Ai and Shinomiya Kaguya. They were dressed up as if they had just walked out of a fireworks display.

"what?

Are you back so soon?

I thought there would be a lot of gunfire tonight!"

Kasumigaoka Utaha said this sourly.

Yotsuya Kaguya's cheeks were shining with a rosy glow, and a proud and somewhat rude smile appeared on the corners of her mouth that she couldn't help but smile. She didn't care about Shiyu's loser-like remarks.

Liu Cheng glared at Kasumigaoka Utaha who was full of dirty jokes, "Since you are all here, let's discuss the opinions about the information I collected.

In the dream, I just took note of it without thinking, and it will take some time for me to really understand it."

Jabami Yumeko seemed to recall something, and said to Liu Cheng with a playful expression: "I was forced to drink so much of your blood that day, why didn't I change at all?"

Liucheng stared at Jabami Yumeko suspiciously, until he saw her licking her lips as if savoring something. Then he suddenly realized something and glared back at her fiercely, warning her to restrain herself.

Yukinoshita Yukino looked at them and fell into deep thought. She always felt that Yumeko was implying something bad.

Chapter 268 Challenging the Nightmare

Liucheng was actually quite glad that she had listened to Hayasaka Ai's advice yesterday and brought her into her dream.

Hayasaka Ai used her personal experience to explain in detail to everyone the dangerous points that need special attention in dreams, the difference between attacking monsters and using force in reality, and the weaknesses of those monsters.

In conjunction with the data collected by Liu Cheng in the early stage, everything in the dream is analyzed from the perspective of humans and non-humans.

In summary, clearly sort out the key points that others need to pay attention to, and prepare in advance to enter the dream or the next world.

"We can imitate the hunting attire and weapons of the hunters in the dream. I don't know if you noticed that most of the hunters carried guns."

Hayasaka Ai looked at Liucheng and Xiaoye. Perhaps the enemies in the dream were not that difficult for them, so they often used cold weapons in hand-to-hand combat when attacking the enemies.

"The rifle bullets used by Bradley are different from normal bullets."

Liu Cheng held up his chin. "Mercury bullets? Long-term exposure to mercury can cause chronic poisoning, and one of the symptoms of mercury poisoning is "going crazy."

Hayasaka Ai shook her head to deny Liu Cheng's suspicions. Her ice-blue eyes sparkled with a strange look. "Those hunters would inject their own blood into the mercury bullets."

Xiaoye thought of the strange behavior of the church assassin Brado, who bled himself before the battle. The blood sprayed all over his body. Perhaps it was at that time that he smeared his bullets with blood.

The attacks from the musket used by the female hunter Maria also carried the scent of blood.

"Then what's the matter with this bow blade?"

Liu Cheng raised his hand and summoned the weapon held by the hunter Simon who died tragically in the fishing village. "This hunter Simon doesn't use guns like the others."

Xiaoye seemed to recall something, "Brado reacted too strongly when he saw you. Did Simon die in the fishing village?"

Yukinoshita Yukino frowned, she had a crazy guess, "Could it be that there is a problem with the order of your exploration... Assuming that in the memory of the church assassin, Simon was killed by him, and Simon eventually died in the fishing village because the church assassin wanted to conceal the truth that the Healing Church was harming people, so he took action?"

“…To confirm this, we need to continue to explore dreams in depth.

The simulated dream you mentioned before can also be put on the agenda. Was it the twisted monster that got stuck at the underground entrance of the Healing Church last night?"

Kaguya Shinomiya stopped their constantly emanating thoughts and asked about the progress of Liucheng and the others' dream exploration.

"That monster had the aura of a hostile ancient god. I was worried that my presence would alert Him, so I stopped exploring."

Liucheng rubbed his temple in distress and explained the reason.

Without the certainty of winning without killing anyone, he really didn't dare to risk the lives of these girls.

Liucheng had no idea what kind of changes their deaths in dreams would cause, and the unknown was the source of fear.

"Can we all join in the next exploration?"

Jabami Yumeko supported herself on the table with her hands, slightly tilted her head and looked up at Liucheng expectantly. The white rabbit in her shirt, which was stretched tight from her shoulders down, was jumping lively.

Her sultry pose made it hard to resist.

"Only those who have their dreams simulated by me will be brought along on the next exploration."

Liucheng smiled and reached out to stroke her head. The soft black hair slipped out from his fingertips as if he was teasing a docile and well-behaved cat.
