Survive with the beautiful girl

“Perhaps the monster’s weakness is in its abdomen, and because its eyes are on the top of its head, it doesn’t notice what’s happening behind it.

When the house collapsed, he was crushed to death for no apparent reason."

Kato Megumi joked with Hayasaka Ai half-jokingly in a relaxed tone. After the death of the ancient god Ibitas, she also saw the reminder in Evolution Paradise about the completion of the mission.

“Where do we go next?

Should we continue exploring or return directly?

You should have also seen the hints given by the park, right?

The conditions for completing this mission seem to have become simpler..."

Hayasaka Ai gave strict instructions to the other two companions and secretly observed their attitudes.

The mission this time has ended, and they can return to the Evolution Paradise now or even break free from the constraints of the paradise.

"Anyway, we can leave this world at any time, so of course we should save as many companions as possible...

After all, we have come this far by helping each other.

And this mission was completed so easily, I kind of suspect he secretly made some kind of deal with Paradise...

Well, since we had already discovered Kaguya's whereabouts before coming here, we can't just pretend we didn't see her and ignore her completely.

Ai-senpai is still very weak, right?

I'm really worried about you exploring alone."

Kato Megumi expressed her thoughts in a casual manner with convincing reasons, and she turned her head to look at the silent Yukinoshita.

"Where's Yukino-senpai?"

Yukinoshita sighed, with a helpless smile on her face, "Then let's continue exploring, everyone do what they can.

It seems like he doesn’t want me to interfere in his fight, what a troublesome boy that makes me worry…”

Hayasaka Ai nodded deeply unconsciously and complained: "Sometimes he is just like Miss Kaguya...

But Miss Kaguya is even better than that...

They really are like a turtle and a mung bean, they are attracted to each other."

Kato Megumi put her gloved fingers on the corners of her masked mouth and said calmly but not gently: "Hey, but I remember that you seemed to be with Kaguya at that time...

Although being a maid is your job, there is no need for you to serve like in ancient times, right?"

Yukinoshita coughed lightly, interrupting Kei's question to Hayasaka Ai's sinister question.

Hayasaka Ai's face suddenly turned red with shame because of her thin skin. She stammered and made ridiculous lies like "Kaguya-san doesn't know anything...", "she needs someone to teach her...", "I was forced to go along...", etc.

The atmosphere among the three of them suddenly became cheerful.

Under the crazy machine gun fire in the distance, Kasumigaoka Utaha had no choice but to hide behind a broken corner of the old Yharnam house, and whispered to Shinomiya Kaguya who was also hiding herself not far from her.

"Can you find a way to shoot him down from the tower with an arrow?"

Shinomiya Kaguya quietly leaned out, and the loud sound of machine guns rang out again, and gravel flew all over the wall she was leaning against.

"He was on the high ground and the machine gun fire was too strong. I couldn't free my hands to aim."

She responded in the same low voice.

"Are we really going to turn back as he said?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha felt that she was filled with anger, but the old hunter on the top of the tower was obviously rational and could communicate.

But for some reason he had been preventing himself and Kaguya from entering the city of old Yharnam.

Although the machine gun fire was fierce, it was obviously more of a warning for them to stay away from here.

“Let’s retreat first. When we return, we’ll follow the route in our dream—this time we’ll explore from the right side of the cathedral area.

Maybe you can meet other people on the road.”

Kaguya Shinomiya frowned and stared at the machine gun hunter on the top of the tower. She scanned the city that seemed to have been burned by a fire. After memorizing the general terrain in her mind, she signaled Kasumigaoka Utaha to retreat with her.

-------------------------------------

When the two girls crawled out of the secret passage under the sarcophagus, they were lucky enough to run into Yukinoshita and the others on their way back to the cathedral.

After a brief exchange of information, the group followed Kaguya Shinomiya's idea and began exploring from the right side of the church area along the route they were familiar with in their dreams.

After the Healing Church gave up on Old Yharnam and ordered it to be burned because of the spread of beastmanship and disease.

After years of development, Yharnam today retains some of the original areas similar to the dream except for the cathedral area. The other newly built urban areas are very different from the scenes in the dreams of those old hunters.

After the five girls cleared out the crazy monsters along the way, the moment they pushed open the door of the building in front of them, they were frightened by Amidala, an ugly monster clinging to the roof and exactly the same as the one outside the Orton Cathedral.

Chapter 284 Debate

The girls gathered in front of the church's archway and discussed in low voices, while the huge monster with a twisted posture that was clinging to the vault inside the church lay there motionless.

It seemed that as long as they didn't do anything overly provocative, the monster would just stay there quietly.

Is He guarding something? Or is He monitoring something?

"Why are there so many monsters of the same type? Are they all of the same species?"

Shinomiya Kaguya couldn't help but whisper, her slender eyebrows were slightly frowned, and her scarlet pupils under the brim of her hat were full of surprise and confusion.

Her eyes shifted away from Amidala and moved aimlessly across the exquisite patterns on the church's arches, pillars, and statues.

These large numbers of monsters currently do not seem to have a strong desire to attack, but if they were controlled by someone to gather together and attack the girls, it would undoubtedly be a very troublesome thing.

Kato Megumi also looked up at Amidala's slender body that extended outward from her torso like spider legs.

The thick hair and dense holes growing wildly on His ugly huge head are enough to make anyone who sees His full appearance feel uncomfortable.

“Assuming that our world is a dream, could these monsters be the watchers in the dream?

Just like some heavenly messengers in the upper echelons of the church... they exist as followers of some ancient god, and this dream is dominated and controlled by them.

If you find any threatening enemies, eliminate them."

After hearing Hui's inference, Hayasaka Ai thought about it and combined her own ideas to refute her point of view. She and Yukino initially thought that this was the real Yanan Makoto.

“But this world is quite real...

We can even break windows, barrels and stuff like that.

The gunpowder I collected from the musketeers can also be used as detonator.

You have to know that in dreams, those monsters cannot last long after being killed, and their bodies will disappear on their own...

But it’s definitely different here.”

"If this is a dream, the scene here should be fragmented and inconsistent...

But as we walked along, it didn't show up.

But if this were real, it would be impossible for those Yharnam people to not react when they saw the monsters on these buildings."

Kasumigaoka Utaha frowned as she expressed her opinion. She actually couldn't tell whether this was the real Yharnam City or a dream controlled by a powerful ancient god.

“I have communicated with the ‘Crow Hunter’ Irene, and she said that she also had the ability to enter and exit dreams.

Her act of hunting those crazy hunters is to free those hunters from their nightmares."

Kato Megumi still insisted on her point of view. The existence of monsters on the buildings made her think that the idea that this world was a dream was so convincing.

"Could it be that dreams and reality overlap...

The boundaries between them become blurred, and if we later see those distorted and unreasonable places in reality, it is because of the existence of dreams that they are distorted. "

Yukinoshita Yukino proposed a relatively compromise idea: "Because of the side effects of blood therapy, the consciousness of the Yharnam people in reality is synchronized with the dreams of the ancient gods.

Everything that happens in dreams is real and affects the real world simultaneously.

We were transported here by the "Evolution Paradise" and because of the infusion of Orange's blood, we were able to synchronize with the dream of this collective consciousness."

Shinomiya Kaguya couldn't help but sigh when she heard this, "Liu Cheng might have directly entered the dream of that ancient god.

If he were in real life, there is no way he wouldn't come looking for us.

And if this is a dream, then there may not be just one dream, there may even be dreams within dreams.”

After hearing Kaguya Shinomiya's guess, everyone else fell silent.

Kato Megumi stared at Amidala's slender claws hanging on both sides of her body. As she possessed the power of Word Spirit and Time Zero, she was undoubtedly the best candidate to be the pathfinder.

“It is impossible to know the truth without continuing to explore and dig.

I will try to get closer first, and you can observe His reaction."

The girl was very active. After she finished speaking, she carefully approached the closed door opposite the church, while keeping an eye on the monster clinging to the arch's every move.

As the girl approached the door, Amidala, who had been unresponsive, began to become active and agitated.

He turned his head to look at Kato Megumi who was about to open the door and sneak into the "unseen village" Yahagul, and raised an arm to grab the girl.

A vortex of dark chaos condensed and grew in the monster's palm, emitting a suction force that was difficult for mortals to resist. He tried to grab Kato Megumi and crush her to death.

The girls who noticed Amidala's unusual movements drew their weapons, ready to attack the monster at any time.

The time zero domain spread from Kato Megumi's side. The girl flexibly shrank her body and accelerated towards the wooden door in front of her. She moved her center of gravity forward and used her shoulders to push the door open.

Kato Megumi narrowly escaped the attraction of the dark vortex in Amidala's palm before he could catch her, and the girls who were nervous for her breathed a sigh of relief.

Having grasped nothing, Amidala withdrew his arm in a daze, and continued to cling to the top of the church in his original posture.

This monster doesn’t seem to be very intelligent?

The girls looked at each other in tacit understanding, and they were all eager to try.

"Do you think he is a kind of ancient god?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha suddenly asked a question. After Yukinoshita and the other two worked together to kill the monster on the upper floor of the church, they all saw the prompt about the completion of the mission in Evolution Paradise.

This made her a little envious. After all, being able to return to the Evolution Paradise at any time to end everything would undoubtedly make them feel very safe.

However, after she and Kaguya Shinomiya killed Bishop Amelia, who had mutated into a giant sheep-like beast in the cathedral, she did not receive any prompt from the Evolution Paradise.
