Zongman, can you be immortal with me for the rest of your life?

At least... this time I didn't mess it up because of my hesitation.

"Great!"

Agatsuma Yuno jumped up and cheered.

As soon as Kazuma was resurrected, he saw a lot of light spots starting to drill into his body.

"Phew! I was so scared! Luckily I got to eat it!"

This guy Kazuma is as lucky as ever.

However, just when everyone was again being overwhelmed by the ball of light and was losing consciousness, a figure running in a panic caught the attention of several people.

That is……

Kerry squinted his eyes and saw that it was the white-haired Eight Hundred Bhikkhuni. It turned out that this girl had been there all the time, but she was just hiding in a pile of red spider lilies.

Kerry squatted down, dug out a fish bone from Duchenzi, and put it in his bag as a souvenir.

"Let's go, that's the culprit, we should settle the score with her."

"Haha! Isn't that the dress that belonged to the lady who met us earlier?"

Kazuma flexed his wrists.

"So she's Yaobikuni! Tsk! I'm going to melt all the Yaobikunis in my games when I get back!"

Kirito looked at the knife in his hand that was shining white, searched around, and found the scabbard of the famous sword he had used before. The length was a little wrong, but fortunately the size was the same. Kirito put the knife into the scabbard.

As for the katana that had accompanied him throughout his battles, haha! With a divine weapon, who cared what happened to it?

The four men packed up their weapons, made sure there was no danger nearby, and then separated and began to chase and intercept the eight hundred nuns.

After the few people left, Miyako, who was actually unable to see anything and had been seeing things through Yuno's perspective, suddenly turned around.

"Um...my wife, what are you doing?"

"Hmm... just a thought. You said none of us with its blood can leave, but it seems that Yaobikuni can leave... We learned about the story of Yaobikuni in Chinese literature class! She's the woman who ate the mermaid, right?"

"This……"

Miyako watched with some horror from Yuno's perspective as Yuno dug up the pool of flesh and blood on the ground, then reached in and took out something that looked like a heart.

"Well, since she can get out after eating the mermaid's flesh, why don't I try eating it?"

"It's better not to, my wife. Your parents are still here. Even if you can't get out, I and your parents are still here. We will accompany you. And if Sarutobi-kun and the others can get out, they will definitely send us food and toys regularly. At least we can live an ordinary life. When we can't bear it anymore, we can ask them to understand our lives."

Miyako spoke again, but it seemed that the girl was thinking more than she let on.

"Is that what you think?"

Yuno looked at her hands full of blood and the internal organs that had been dug out. Scarlet filled her eyes, which reminded her of the red yukata, and she smiled happily.

"You know what? Sometimes, I think about leaving my parents. Especially my mom, I would be so happy if she could be trapped here and I could get out! I would definitely come back to see her regularly! Hahaha!"

Also, what's that famous foreign saying? I could have endured the darkness if I had never seen the light, right? If I can't go out with Danzo-sama and have to live in this place, why don't I just die?

"what……?"

Miyako Kamishiro, who had never had any contact with the outside world and had always longed for the world outside the village, took several steps back after hearing the clear but somewhat creepy laughter.

Because she also used Yuno's first person perspective, she had no way of knowing what Yuno's expression was at the moment.

No, so the people outside are so scary?

This sister who is the same age as me was acting normal just now when everyone was around. What happened to her?

In Miyako's horrifying first-person perspective, she saw Yuno Agatsuma swallow the heart, then raised her bloody hands and wiped her cheeks.

At the same time, the four of them trapped the eight hundred nuns next to a stone pillar.

"You! You!"

The old woman witnessed with her own eyes that she sacrificed her own eternal life, and her fully resurrected master was made into roasted grasshoppers by several people.

"I... my immortality, my youth, my paradise... I..."

Chapter 278: Quack!

Looking at the three people approaching, the eight hundred nuns did not have any violent reaction.

He just smiled miserably and looked at them with his cloudy eyes.

What else could she do? Everything she had was ruined!

She spent 1300 years trying to escape pain and achieve a normal eternal life, but in the end, she only endured 1300 years of pain in vain. She didn't even enjoy a single day before she returned everything she had to her God.

She hoped to resurrect God and thereby atone for her sins, which had already been wiped away, but God lived for less than half an hour before lying down again.

She resented and cursed Kree for causing her to lose her life.

But so what? Tatsuko lay on the ground, and Keri stood in front of her with a sword.

And she was no longer the Eight Hundred Bhikkhuni whose name was recorded in myths and legends, but just an old woman whose teeth would break when she ate peanuts.

A thousand years ago, in order to survive in troubled times, she ate a monster and committed original sin. A thousand years later, when she had done all the evil things, she sacrificed her life in order to live a better life.

The overwhelming feeling of powerlessness made the eight hundred nuns burst into tears and they fell to the ground with weak legs.

"Heaven... We can still create heaven. Now even God is gone. As long as we drink the cursed water and turn into corpses, we can rely on our own will to live forever in this space! Let me go! I'm not harmful at all. Just let me drink the water, let me drink the water..."

Kerry shrugged his shoulders somewhat boredly, because when he walked up to the thing with the sword in hand, she had already fallen to the ground and twitched insanely.

The sudden impact was too great, and the burst of desire to survive made her show her ugliest side. She lay on the ground licking the stone with runes.

Several people expressed regret that they could not madly humiliate this unknown thing.

"Let me do it."

Kirito walked to the side of the kneeling old woman, raised the flame in his hand, and then cut off the head of the thing with a precise side cut.

Even Xiangzi, the most immature person, was able to face this bloody scene calmly after watching it from such a close distance.

Just when a few people were about to continue looking for a way to leave.

Suddenly, where the blood of the eight hundred nuns flowed, a white light rose from the ground and the entire space shook.

When a few people still couldn't figure out what was going on.

They have returned to where they came from.

In fact, the area under Yaobikuni's feet is a time-space shuttle device belonging to Tatsuko. However, for some reason, just like Rika can no longer go to the past, the time of this world has been permanently frozen since four years ago. It can only move forward and not backward, and nothing can return to the past.

It was also for this reason that a few hours ago, the eight hundred nuns standing on the sea of blood did not wait for a white-haired old woman to bring her the complete head of Dhuchenzi.

The activation of this thing also represents the collapse of the entire so-called underworld, which is actually Chen Zi's hiding place.

In the white light, Xiangzi and Kerry returned to the abandoned factory.

Yuno and Miyako returned to the shelter.

Kirito and Kazuma returned to the outside of the shelter, where they were originally patrolling.

As soon as they landed, the four of them reported the situation to each other in their minds and confirmed that nothing was wrong. Then Kazuma immediately checked the people in the shelter.

Fortunately, the house was somewhat damaged, but there were still a lot of people inside.

It seems that when they were summoned to the underworld, they were also attacked by zombies, but now the zombies seem to have left.

Then he discovered that someone was missing.

"Where are the others, Takeuchi?"

The folklorist is gone, but his female student is still here.

"Teacher, teacher, he noticed that a few minutes ago, all the zombies lost their will to attack us, and then they left without stopping us."

"You're such a grown-up, it's really troublesome."

Kazuma complained and continued typing in his mental channel.

Sato Kazuma: I'll explain the situation to these people first, and then find a way out.

Kirito knocked on the door of the shelter that was blocked by those people and walked up to the infected people.

The people inside breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that they were back.

"Didn't you say you would protect us? Those monsters were knocking on this door just now!"

Inside, Yuno's adoptive mother is exuding her aggression again.

However, just as she started to speak, her husband covered her mouth and she kept shaking her head at Kirito.

"Sorry! Sorry! Xiguo was frightened so much that she's a little upset! Please don't mind!"

They should be thankful that it was Kirito who was here and not Kazuma or Keri.

Kirito glanced at these people, but because of the pity in his heart, he didn't care about their mistakes in words.

He took a deep breath.

"I think you all already know what the monsters here are. I need to tell you one thing. If nothing goes wrong, you will slowly turn into that kind of monster. This is exactly why my companions separate you from normal people.

However, I have another way. I can inject you with a kind of blood that can stop you from changing into that monster. But the price is that you may never be able to leave here. Or we can find a way to take you away, but you must move to the place we designate and report to us every day that you are still living there.

Of course, this is also for your protection.”

This was Kazuma's idea. Kazuma didn't want these people to fall into the hands of the government. Kirito was also right. This was a kind of protection for them.

Kazuma was not afraid that these people would be taken away by the Japanese government to research ways to deal with the undead. Their systems and power levels were completely different, and studying these people would be meaningless in terms of how to deal with them.

What Kazuma was more worried about was that those old guys in the trenches would find out about a way to achieve immortality without the side effects of the ghouls, and they would study it intensively and then want to use it on themselves.

Kazuma doesn't rule out the possibility that human government agencies should have more knowledge of occult science, but if something goes wrong, the whole of Tokyo will become Yharnam, which would be a disaster.

"How...how can we trust you? Besides, we don't have enough money to move to the place you specify..."

The husband of another infected couple spoke up.

Kirito didn't say anything else, just sat cross-legged in the room, closed the door, took out the flame and placed it on his knees.

"I know this may be hard for you to accept, but this is the best solution we can think of. Either agree to our request or be killed by me before you turn into a monster. This will also be a relief. There is no third option.

If you have any problems with funds, I will lend you some.”

Actually, Kirito originally wanted to just offer to help, but Kazuma insisted that it must be a loan!

Kazuma's original words were: "If we make them feel that we really have an obligation to help them, they will become confused."

However, Kirito still did not follow Kazuma's original words. After all, Kazuma's original words were to make these guys face the facts. Without their protection, these guys would definitely be captured by the research institute as experimental materials and have their blood drawn every day. Only they would not mind the trouble to help them instead of just killing them all to avoid accidents.

Kirito softened his words now out of consideration for the heavy pressure on them.

Chapter 279: Auspicious! Growth!

While Kirito and Kazuma were dealing with the shelter issue, Chris and Shoko were strolling through the deserted alien city, searching for the remaining corpses.

A battle of this intensity was nothing more than a stroll for the two people who had just faced the disgusting monsters.

So this also gave Xiangzi time to start thinking again about the problems he had left behind in the previous battle.

Looking at Kerry who pushed a dog corpse against the wall with a sword and then broke its neck, Xiangzi withdrew his gaze and was about to say something.

She had never been accustomed to sharing her inner thoughts with others in her previous life, but at this moment she felt like she wanted to talk to her companions.

After hesitating for a moment, Xiangzi gritted his teeth.

"Um...Kerry, was what I did wrong before?"

"What's the matter?"

Amid the monster's wailing, Kerry cut off its immortality. He looked back in confusion at Xiangzi who kicked a spider corpse away and then cut open its internal organs with a sickle.

Xiangzi was a little angry. Have I done a lot of wrong things in your eyes?

"That's right, I shouldn't have said so much to my wife's classmates..."

In fact, this was not what she wanted to say. She wanted to talk about what she thought on the battlefield. She hoped that Kerry would say something like "It's your actions, not your heart. You are a hero for doing good things, whether you are an immortal or not" or "Actually, I have the same idea. If I hadn't become an immortal, I wouldn't help others."

But she knew very well that Kerry would not say that, and once he opened his mouth, his words drifted off to other things because of his tangled thoughts.
