The Great Detective of Gensokyo, but surrounded by Shura Field!

Reimu was right.

Of course, it is impossible for Chu Bai to completely absorb such a huge power in a short period of time.

So he continued to communicate with the magic circle and speed up the absorption of energy.

If the magic circle is broken at this time, the huge power will run wild and dissipate in his body, and everything will be in vain!

"Stop!"

Chu Bai quickly dodged and chased after Ling Meng.

But Sanae couldn't just stand there and watch.

The huge pillar appeared again, and this time it was endowed with miraculous power.

Although he still couldn't defeat Chu Bai, it was more than enough to delay time.

Reimu also seized this fleeting opportunity and created a considerable distance in one breath.

And just before Chu Bai repelled Sanae and was about to stop her, he rushed into the blood mist covering the human world.

however……

When she rushed out of the blood mist that obscured her vision and was about to destroy the magic circle on the ground in one go...

The girl was shocked to find that the situation in the village was completely different from what she saw outside.

There were no corpses strewn about.

No stumps or fragments.

There are no bloody and cruel scenes.

The villagers just lay in the streets, falling into a baby-like sleep.

Although they were pale and looked weak, they were not in any danger of life.

To use an analogy, it's like a gaming expert who has been playing for three days and three nights straight. All he needs is a good night's sleep to instantly regain his energy.

"This...is this?"

Reimu was stunned.

Inside the surging blood fog, there is such a peaceful scene.

She even saw Alice and Marisa. These defeated girls were in the village at this time, helping the Jihadists maintain order.

Sasha even waved to Reimu in the air:

"Hey Reimu, is the fight over there over?"

"If you still have energy, please help with some work. There are a lot of things to clean up here."

"……you……"

The red and white witch felt like her brain was freezing.

She stood there in the air, not even knowing how to react.

Outside the blood mist, Chu Bai and Sanae also chased after them.

Seeing that the situation here was completely exposed, Chu Bai could only sigh slightly:

"It was discovered anyway."

"According to the script, I was supposed to trigger another sudden change in the celestial phenomena, and have the Thunder God help me, but in the end, I was defeated magnificently by your combined efforts..."

"What a shame! Looks like we can only move on to the revealing phase early."

……

……

That’s right, Chu Bai certainly didn’t really become a demon.

All of this is part of the change.

The so-called sacrifice of villagers actually extracts not vitality, but the villagers' physical strength and energy.

Although this will cause some unrest, it is a mutation after all, so this unrest is quite reasonable.

Of course, the price of doing this is that Chu Bai’s strength is completely false.

Even after sacrificing the physical strength and energy of almost half of the village, they could only maintain their peak state for a few minutes.

"Wait, I have a lot of doubts!"

Reimu asked in surprise:

"First of all, I've been seeing these six-pointed star marks all the way here. What the hell are these?"

Chu Bai explained:

"Those are the signals that trigger the magic circle to operate."

"When the seal is broken, the Chaos Gospel Array will begin to operate."

"As for the purpose of doing this, it is to 'use the mark to gradually lead you away from the human world', to prevent you from discovering the truth."

It turned out to be the case.

The marks left along the way were like bait on a fishing rod, purely to lure them away.

Reimu twitched the corners of her mouth:

"And what about the flyers?"

"Why are the villagers able to release magic immediately after touching the flyers, and show a fanatical desire for magic?"

Chu Bai gave a thumbs up:

"This flyer is a tool I commissioned Kappa Heavy Industries to develop. It's a creation that combines technology and magic."

"Each flyer has a circuit capable of supporting remote spellcasting, and is remotely controlled by Alice."

"When you hold the flyer and chant the correct spell, Alice will receive the signal and cast the magic on your behalf."

"That's why Xiao Ai's face is so pale. After all, she cast magic on hundreds of villagers continuously. Even with my magic potion to replenish her energy, the loss was huge."

Sanae suddenly realized:

"No wonder Miss Alice was defeated not long after fighting me."

"And the villagers' desire for magic is probably due to the 'emotional drug' painted on the flyer, right?"

Chu Bai nodded slightly:

"Yes, Kaguya got this medicine from the Eternal Pavilion."

"After painting it on flyers, the villagers used the flyers to release magic, and they immediately became interested in magic."

"With the blessing of the medicine, you will naturally crave magic and want to collect more flyers."

"Oh, by the way, I also sprinkled potions in advance for the battle environment we just had, so your emotions will become a little abnormal."

"I don't know why Sanae is always so calm..."

Sanae suddenly felt a little ashamed.

Because not long ago, she had been completely incited, and then went home to vent her anger.

She is still in "Sage Time" now, and it is very difficult to be instigated again.

But this kind of thing definitely couldn't be said, so she quickly changed the subject:

"Mr. Chu Bai, I have one last question——"

“Why did you ask villagers to collect flyers?”

Chu Bai smiled and said:

"Because the flyers are considered the medium of the Chaos Gospel Array."

"To put it simply, the magic circle is like a bowl, and the flyer is like tableware."

"If I want to eat, first I have to put the food in a bowl, and then I have to use cutlery to eat it."

"Only when the villagers come into contact with the flyers, which are the medium of the magic circle, can I remotely control these sacrifices, making them levitate, burst into blood, and fall vertically at the right time."

Hexagram Seal - Magic Circle - Flyer.

With Chu Bai's explanation, the logic of these three finally became circular and he successfully completed it.

As if he had thought of something, he continued to add:

"By the way, the villagers' health burst comes from the health pack controlled by Xiao Ai."

"Her puppetry allows her to control a large number of objects simultaneously, which is perfect for my performance requirements."

"Of course, having too many targets wouldn't work, so I chose to sacrifice them in batches, one by one, slowly..."

Talking and talking.

Chu Bai suddenly discovered that Lingmeng actually lowered her head and sobbed softly.

He quickly came over and said:

"What's wrong, Reimu? Why are you crying? Did I hurt you just now?"

“…I’m not crying!”

Reimu suddenly lost control and punched Chu Bai in the nose.

Chu Bai fell to the ground on the spot, holding his nose and crying out in pain:

"Wow, why did you suddenly attack? Hasn't the misunderstanding been resolved?"

"It was you who hit!"

Reimu puffed up her cheeks, and a faint gleam of water seemed to be visible in the corners of her eyes, but she forced an angry expression:

"Why are you acting so convincingly? I thought you were really going to destroy Gensokyo!"

"The choice between friends and mission, I never want to have to make this choice again in my life!"

Chu Bai covered his nose with a dry laugh:

"Ahem, don't worry, it won't happen again."

"The reason for causing the anomaly is money... ahem, to spread the magician's reputation."

"Be careful next time, be careful next time..."

"There won't be a next time!"

Reimu clenched her fists:

"If this happens again, I'll be really angry!"

"Okay, okay, there won't be a next time..."

Look at the interaction between Chu Bai and Ling Meng.

Sanae blinked and subconsciously stepped between them.

"By the way, where are Tenko and Youmu? Shouldn't we call them back?"

Chu Bai reacted immediately:

"Oh yes, I asked the old lady Purple for help during the battle and asked her to help take down these two people and share some of the pressure."

"Now that it's over, it's time to call them back."

As he spoke, he pressed the communicator on his collar:

"Hello? Is Zi still there?"

"The incident is over. We can return Tenko and Youmu to you."

No one answered.

Chu Bai raised his eyebrows slightly and spoke again:

"Zi? Yakumo Zi? Old lady Zi?"
