In Zongman, the evil spirits are eliminated physically.

"No way, are all the junior high school students nowadays so mature?"

While the three women were talking, Ouyang Xuan did not interrupt, but just watched silently, then took out a pistol.

"I didn't expect you to come so soon." Ouyang Xuan's tone was cold, but his actions made Hai Meng and Lei Zi on the opposite side nervous, because Ouyang Xuan raised his gun and pointed it at them.

"Europe--"

Bang bang bang! !

Just as Lei Zi was about to ask Ouyang Xuan what he wanted to do, Ouyang Xuan had already pulled the trigger. A gunshot like a thunderclap rang out in front of them, and the flames of the explosion occupied most of their vision. Following their biological instincts, Lei Zi and Hai Meng immediately squatted down with their ears covered.

What Ouyang Xuan is holding in his hand is the real thing!

Leizi and Haimeng thought of this in their hearts almost at the same time.

While she was still thinking, she saw a figure rushing in front of her. Before Lei Zi and Hai Meng could see her face clearly, her wrist was grabbed.

"Don't squat! Run!"

Hina grabbed the wrists of the two women and was about to run. The two women, who had been frightened unconscious by Ouyang Xuan's sudden shooting, were as soft as noodles. When Hina suddenly pulled them, they staggered several times and fell to the ground, but they were quickly pulled behind Ouyang Xuan.

Hai Meng had not yet recovered from the tension of being shot at, and when she looked up, she saw something she would probably never forget.

A centipede of indeterminate length and size scurried swiftly between the trees, its head suspended in mid-air. Green blood streamed from its wound, dripping right where Lei Zi and I had been standing. If it hadn't been struck by Ouyang Sun's gun, he would have been bitten.

"This is!! A monster!!" Lei Zi's trembling voice was filled with fear, but there was more of an inexplicable excitement in it.

"Actually, there really are monsters!? It's not a special effect or some prop, right?!"

"I shouldn't be excited at this time!" Hai Meng seemed to be more afraid of Lei Zi who was excited beside him than the centipede in front of him that was bleeding and slowly raising its head.

"Saten, please don't do this. I'm scared."

"I'm scared too, but is this a real monster? This is a true urban legend!"

The noise behind him did not affect Ouyang Sun too much. The hardness of the centipede monster in front of him was beyond his imagination. Bullets that could leave marks on ordinary monsters as if they were hit by machine guns, in front of this centipede monster, only left wounds as big as bowls, and the green blood that flowed out quickly stopped.

If this centipede monster was hit by a bullet, it would scream and shout like crazy, and Ouyang Xuan would feel that it would be easier to deal with. However, after being hit, it not only did not scream and shout like low-level monsters, but instead quietly adjusted its body, with its tentacles swaying, as if it was measuring the distance between itself and Ouyang Xuan, preparing to launch its own attack.

It's not just a fool who has only strengthened his body but never used his brain. He has already developed considerable intelligence. I originally thought it was just a female ghost, but I didn't expect to get an unexpected gain.

In order to make up for the lack of firepower of a pistol, Ouyang Sun took out a spare pistol, holding both guns and observing the centipede monster vigilantly.

Chapter 12 Your name

The moment he saw Ouyang Xuan take out the second pistol and prepare to load it, the centipede demon knew that he had to launch an attack first. Although he was not very clear about the weapon in Ouyang Xuan's hand, the scar on his head clearly reminded him that it was a weapon that could kill him. One pistol could make him bleed, and two pistols might make it impossible for him to launch an effective attack.

The centipede monster's seemingly huge and clumsy body moves very fast, with hundreds of legs waving in the air. They are as sharp as sickles to cut branches, and also like oars, constantly accelerating the centipede monster in the air.

"Amano!"

"I understand, President."

He turned the backpack behind him over in front of him, raised his hands and used it as a shield in front of him. The backpack, which was strengthened by Ouyang Xuan's magic, could resist the spells and physical attacks of many monsters.

The centipede monster opened its big mouth, and in the brief third of a second that Ouyang Xuan reminded Yang Cai to pay attention, it bit Ouyang Xuan's arm that was holding the unloaded pistol. At this time, Ouyang Xuan felt a little regretful. He should not have pursued diversity and brought two pistols of different models. If he had Glocks in both hands, he could have shot inside the centipede monster's mouth and blown his head off.

It bit Ouyang Falcon's arm, and a row of teeth that didn't look like those of insects bit hard, trying to bite Ouyang Falcon's arm off, but it was in vain in front of Ouyang Falcon's body-protecting golden light. Even though the centipede monster used its two pincers and fangs, it still couldn't do anything to Ouyang Falcon.

"President!"

Looking at Ouyang Falcon, whose arm was bitten by the centipede monster and was flying into the sky, Yang Cai shouted subconsciously.

"Watch those two, Amano. With your aura and backpack, the monsters here can't hurt you."

"Boss, you have to deal with that big bug quickly too!"

Later, because Ouyang Falcon was pulled too high by the centipede monster, Yang Cai could no longer hear what Ouyang Falcon said, but she still strictly followed Ouyang Falcon's instructions, holding the +16 backpack strengthened by magic, and guarding in front of Haimeng and Lei Zi in full readiness.

"From now on, you two must not leave my side. It's very dangerous here. You absolutely cannot leave my side!"

"I know, I know." Lei Zi and Hai Meng, who were frightened, clung tightly to Hina.

"Um, Amano-san, that's real... a monster..."

"correct."

"You...you have been fighting these monsters with Senior Ouyang!?" Although Lei Zi was afraid, she was already excited.

"It's not all monsters, there are also evil spirits and so on." Hina added, "But the fighting is mainly done by the president. I just play a supporting role and cheer him on, or like now, after he actively or passively distances himself from the opponent, I protect the client who remains in place."

"But don't worry." Hina patted the backpack in her hand. "This backpack has been strengthened by the president's magic. Not to mention monsters, even if a bomb comes, as long as we hide behind it, nothing will happen. I've relied on this backpack in several battles before, and nothing happened."

"Well, Amano-san! Have you ever seen a snow woman? Or a Zashiki-warashi or a kappa? What about psychics? People from the future? I've only seen people with superpowers."

Because the urban legend that she had loved for a long time was so close to her, Riri Saten temporarily forgot her fear and wanted to get more first-hand information from Hina, who had experienced it firsthand. Letting Riri, who was an avid fan of urban legends, stay with Hina was like letting a beggar guard an unmanned meat bun shop and let him eat as much as he wanted.

The tearful child on the ground was as eager to buy urban legends as a turtle that could no longer hold back its desire to move. Ouyang Falcon in the sky was also calculating the distance. After seeing that he had been pulled to a height of several hundred meters, Ouyang Falcon knew that the time had come.

During the time when he was pulled up by the centipede monster and flew several hundred meters into the sky, Ouyang Jun had already clearly discovered that the centipede monster could not fly.

Facing this insect that was relying entirely on brute force to pull himself up into the sky, Ouyang Jun immediately realized his intention. This guy wanted to kill himself by falling. Flying spells are very advanced spells among humans. Most human spells can only achieve suspension and short-distance gliding. Facing a height of hundreds or even thousands of meters being pulled up, it is enough to kill a large number of humans.

The centipede monster relied on this tactic to kill some humans who came to attack him alone, which also made him form path dependence. Although he could not fly, he had thick skin and flesh. If he fell from a few hundred meters, he would only feel pain for a while, and at most he would break a dozen legs.

"You have an animal brain, but you did miscalculate something."

As he spoke, Ouyang Xuan needed to activate the power of the bull talisman. His arm, which was tightly bitten by the centipede monster's two rows of teeth, was pulled out with a rustling sound. The sound was the sound of the teeth being broken and falling out. The dark yellow teeth and green blood splashed out, turning the centipede monster into a half-shameless person in an instant.

Human, you are just falling down early.

Half of the teeth were broken by Ouyang Sun, but the centipede monster did not get angry, but sneered in his mind. Ouyang Sun was relying on the arm that he had bitten to survive at an altitude of several hundred meters. Now that the arm was pulled out, he had no support and could only struggle and fall from the altitude.

The centipede monster, which couldn't fly and was only flying in the air by inertia, continued to maintain an upward posture, but still twisted its fat body, wanting to see Ouyang Jun fall from the sky in despair and turn into a meat patty.

Where are the people! ?

Each of the centipede monster's compound eyes blinked more than a dozen times, but it did not find any trace of Ouyang Falcon. Just before he was about to expand his observation range, a weight as heavy as a meteorite fell on the centipede monster's head. Its body, which was stretched diagonally upwards, turned into an N shape in an instant, and its head hit the ground with a sound of breaking wind.

Without giving the centipede monster on the ground any time to react, Ouyang Sun, carrying a single-soldier rocket launcher on his shoulder, pulled the trigger at the centipede monster that had just hit the ground. The explosion of the rocket with an orange tail flame was extremely powerful. An orange fireball appeared on the ground. The trees were either burned into bare trunks by the overflowing flames, or blown off and crooked by the strong wind, just like being bombarded by a train.

"The noise seems a little loud." Ouyang Jun looked at the forest below him that was emitting thick smoke. After discovering that the pistol bullets could not cause enough damage to the centipede monster for the time being, Ouyang Jun took out heavy firepower, but forgot that the noise might be a little loud.

"We'll just use the gas explosion to fool them this time. The old man and his gang are already very skilled at it anyway."

"The cemetery is so cheap, it's normal and reasonable for the gas pipe to pass through here, huh."

The fire on the ground gradually died down, and a black dot jumped up from below, heading straight towards Ouyang Xuan. In the light of the fire and the moon, it could be seen that it was a person with three pairs of arms and a head that looked like a hybrid of a human and a centipede.

As if he didn't notice the person rushing up from under his feet, a flash bomb appeared in Ouyang Sun's hand. He pulled the safety. Because he was in the sky, he only needed to let go of his hand and the flash bomb would fall down. Then an extremely dazzling light burst out under Ouyang Sun's feet. Ouyang Sun was not hit because he raised his head slightly, but the person rushing up from below was completely hit.

"Ahhhh!! My eyes! Despicable human!"

He covered his tearful eyes with two hands, and kept his other four arms in a defensive posture.

"You are neither human nor demon, and you are too ugly."

"people--"

Ouyang Xuan, who had discovered him from the very beginning, was now flying in front of him, talking, but it did not affect the movements of his hands at all. The loaded automatic shotgun did not need to be aimed, he just had to pull the trigger at his position. The wall formed by the steel balls shot from the muzzle made the half-transformed centipede's flesh and bone fragments fly all over the sky, and the body that had just successfully transformed became tattered.

The pieces of flesh fell back to the ground, and the centipede monster's powerful vitality immediately began to repair its body. Only one-third of its legs remained, and one-third of its body was gone, but both were recovering rapidly. As long as Ouyang Sun gave him three minutes, a centipede monster exactly the same as the one before would stand in front of Ouyang Sun.

Unfortunately, Ouyang Xuan is not the protagonist of a hot-blooded comic who would foolishly wait for the villain to recover, nor is he interested in anything like, "This time it's my turn to fight the centipede monster."

Confucius said, "Kill you while you are sick!"

The centipede monster had four rows of eyes on its face, but seven of them were destroyed by Ouyang Sun's shotgun just now. The only one left could only see a very blurry picture and nothing was clear, as if the world only had 120P. But no matter how unclear he could see things, he could still see Ouyang Sun in the sky, who appeared in front of him in an instant.

"I want to recover——"

What arrived faster than Ouyang Jun's answer was his fist. The centipede monster's head, which was originally only half embedded in the ground, was punched into the mud by Ouyang Jun. It was not known whether its mouth was broken or buried in the soil. Ouyang Jun could no longer hear its voice, but it did not matter, because it did not affect the rhythm of Ouyang Jun's punches at all.

Ouyang Xuan's face was still expressionless as always. With three punches, half of the centipede monster's body was sunk into the ground. Ouyang Xuan stood up and straddled the centipede monster's body. The slightly floating body told Ouyang Xuan that the centipede monster was not dead yet.

Almost the entire body was buried in the soil. Ouyang Xuan only needed to take out his gun and shoot a few more times, or continue to punch his head a few more times, and he could easily beat the monster that had just transformed into a ghost.

"Humanity!"

With a low and long-brewing roar, four arms that were stuck in the mud lifted up the mud and stretched out. The four arms turned into two iron chains that imprisoned Ouyang Falcon, and they held Ouyang Falcon locked in their chests.

"I've got you! A weak human body can't possibly defeat a monster's powerful body!"

The whole monster jumped out of the mud. His face, which was sunken by Ouyang Xuan's punch, had not even recovered at this time. He jumped out with a sunken face. At the same time, his two empty arms waved quickly, and his fists as big as sand pots hit Ouyang Xuan like a storm. The arms that were locking Ouyang Xuan also kept exerting force, trying to kill Ouyang Xuan with his sister in his arms.

Faced with a situation that would have been almost a dead end for an ordinary Taoist priest, Ouyang Jun said that the situation was stable and allowed the centipede demon's fist to hit the golden light that protected his body. The flesh fist hitting the golden light that protected his body made of energy made a sound as loud as steel.

"Go to hell! Go to hell! Go to hell!"

The centipede demon swung his fists with more and more strength. The airflow from just raising his arms could make the branches tremble. Some trees that were left with only dead branches and stumps due to the previous flames would even be blown away by the wind from his fists. Each punch was as powerful as splitting rocks and shaking mountains.

The body was bloody and mangled. It was not Ouyang Falcon who was being punched, but the centipede monster who was swinging the punch. It was obviously him who was hitting Ouyang Falcon, but it was his fist that was smashed and bleeding in front of the golden light that protected Ouyang Falcon's body. His fist became more ferocious with each swing of the punch. The pain could no longer stop the centipede monster from moving. Instead, it made him swing his punches even more desperately under the stimulation of the pain.

"People—poof!"

Two beams of light pierced through the centipede monster's chest, and the heart, spine and entire chest were crushed and melted in an instant. The blood vessels were burned shut by the laser light the next moment after being broken, and the smell of barbecue quickly spread in this small area.

The four arms that were locking Ouyang Xuan and the two arms that were waving to beat Ouyang Xuan had all lost their strength. The centipede demon didn't even have the strength to stand. After weakly letting go of Ouyang Xuan, he staggered back a few steps, and then his legs could no longer support his body, and he fell to his knees with a thud.

"Hey..." The centipede demon coughed up a lot of blood every time he spoke. "Don't you humans say something after killing a powerful monster?"

"I don't think I'm the strongest in this area, but I'm one of the better ones. Defeating a powerful demon like me must give you a great sense of accomplishment."

"No." Ouyang Xuan pressed the cold muzzle of his gun against the centipede monster's head.

"Tell me, your name—"

Just like most of the time today, the centipede demon was interrupted by Ouyang Xuan before he could finish his words. He pulled the trigger, and the centipede demon, whose human form and demonic power were almost exhausted, once again faced Ouyang Xuan's Glock. He had no defense and his head exploded instantly.

Chapter 13 The Magician Who Cannot Be Named

The rocket landed, creating a huge fireball in the dark suburban area. Regardless of whether people in Tokyo city, which was dozens of kilometers away, saw it, Hina and the other two, who were only a few kilometers away, saw it clearly.

"Senior Ouyang... will you be okay?" Hai Meng looked at the fireball in the sky worriedly. After Lei Zi kept repeating "Senior Ouyang" in her ear for a long time, Hai Meng also subconsciously used this title.

"It's okay, it's okay." Hina waved her hand nonchalantly. "The president has made louder noises than this before, and they were always treated as gas explosions."

"Gas explosion?" Lei Zi's urban legend brain began to work rapidly. She quickly pulled up urban legends related to this from her database and said in surprise, "Could it be that the pillar of light that shot straight into the sky in Shikoku last month, which the people above said was just a gas explosion, was also caused by Senior Ouyang?"

"The one in Shikoku..." Haruna thought for a moment, "Oh, that one, that wasn't done by the president. It was the local shrine maidens who made the noise in order to seal a great demon. Originally, they thought the president's fighting noise was too loud, so they decided to just seal the demon quietly. But then..."

Hina didn't say the rest of the words, but just shrugged her shoulders. What she wanted to say was already expressed in this action.

"This, this is the big adventure I've always dreamed of!"

It wasn't just Lei Zi's eyes that were shining with gold, even Hai Meng was getting restless.

As an old fan of the anime, how could Hai Meng not have the idea of turning herself into a magical girl, wearing light and cute clothes, defeating enemies with cute pink magic in the city, and protecting everyone's thoughts? Of course, it would be better not to have a scene of transforming in front of all the classmates in the school, because in the current magical girl's transformation process, her clothes will disappear first.

"Magic, there must be magic!" Hai Meng then added, "Not the kind of spells that Senior Ouyang uses, but magic, magic like Harry Potter's!"

"As for magic, I've only seen it once. It was an elf lady from Daiying. She said she came from a tower and was traveling to the island country. I don't know the details, but she went to the coffee shop with the president that day. It was the first time the president didn't let me join them. He just asked me to sit outside. It was very strange."

"That lady's name, I remember it was Luluti—" Hina slapped herself on the mouth, blocking her mouth as she was about to say the elf's name. "What a close call! The president warned me repeatedly at that time that I absolutely, absolutely must not call that lady by her name. I almost forgot."

"She didn't even call me by my full name. How mysterious, how great, how 2D-esque!" Hai Meng was captivated by the elf lady whom she had never met before.

"So, what kind of magic did that elf lady show you, Amano?"

"It's a magic that can instantly transform into a flower field." Hina said, "And it creates a flower field directly from a concrete floor. I just don't know if you can control the types of flowers. The elf lady created roses, and they had too many thorns. It took the president to rescue me, otherwise I don't know how I would have walked out of a field of roses."

"If I learn magic, then when I cosplay, I don't need to look for post-production." Hai Meng had a flash of inspiration and thought of a new use for magic.

"Senior Kitagawa, this is not how magic should be used..." Ruizi said speechlessly.

Except for the loud noise a few kilometers away, the entire cemetery was filled with an eerie silence. If a person came alone, he would be scared speechless. Fortunately, humans are social animals. As long as there are a large number of them, they will not be afraid of anything. The three women began to chat.

"Help...Help."

A weak voice was heard, and a ragged little girl ran out from between the tombstones and the grass, barefoot and with many scars on her face.

"Big sister, help me, I'm so scared."

As soon as the little girl saw the three girls of Hina huddled together, her eyes lit up immediately and she stumbled towards them. However, she had not taken a few steps when she tripped and fell to the ground. Her watery eyes were immediately filled with tears.

"Are you OK?"

Just as Ruizi was about to take a step forward to help the little girl, she was grabbed by Hina.

"Saten-san, at a time like this, you can't trust anyone or anything." Haruna said seriously, "Youkai are a very cunning bunch. If you want to help her, I have band-aids and potions here. We can just give them to her. Even with the president's enhanced backpack, we still have to be cautious."

After so many missions with Ouyang Xuan and being tricked several times, Yang Cai has become a skilled assistant to the exorcist. She also has some experience in dealing with the requests for help from human cubs who are the special attacks of a large number of humans. Even if the little girl is real, they have to wait for Ouyang Xuan to come back before rescuing her.

Haruna took out a Band-Aid and hemostatic spray from her bag and threw them in front of the little girl.
