Heaven has bound me to weakness? I angrily unleash the Eight Gates!

Although with his father and uncle around, Tsumiki wouldn't encounter any danger even if he entered the barrier to participate in the Death Return Tour, he still wanted to do his best to resolve this matter.

"Remove the spell? Then if you don't have the spell, you can ignore this rule."

Maki, who was standing nearby, suddenly spoke up.

First of all, not all sorcerers possess spells; and secondly, not all sorcerers possess magical power.

Among those present, she is one, and so is the current director of the Japanese military hospital.

These are all special cases; no specific technique is involved.

"That's not entirely unreasonable."

Tengen nodded in agreement with Maki's statement, "These fourth and fifth rules involve game points. Killing a non-magician will earn you one game point, and killing a mage will earn you five game points."

If a swimmer has extra points, they can obtain all of their opponent's game points upon defeating them.

“Each swimmer will receive a golden bug, similar to a manager, which swimmers can use to add rules to the Death Return Swim.”

"Currently, there are no rules regarding the exit mechanism for the Death and Resurrection event. If you want to rescue your loved ones or swimmers, you can try to add other rules."

Whether the additional rules will take effect is up to the administrators to judge.

In one breath, Tianyuan roughly analyzed the current situation for everyone's reference.

"Ah, it feels just like a game, how come there are so many rules?"

The right to judge whether the rules are reasonable rests with the administrator. Could it be biased towards certain individuals?

Hearing what Tianyuan said that day made my head spin. Is the game about to become a reality? It feels weird.

"I don't think we need to worry about that. The restrictions imposed on swimmers by the extinction program are so significant that if the administrators were to favor the swimmers, it would only exacerbate the problem!"

In general, the stronger the constraints on one aspect, the more relaxed the constraints on the other.

After hearing all the rules, Itachi fell silent. The last rule was that any swimmer whose game points did not change within nineteen days would have their spells revoked.

The existence of this rule is tantamount to telling everyone that if they do not kill someone within nineteen days, they will surely die.

This is forcing swimmers to kill each other.

However, Fu Hei, who was standing to the side, did not care about this at all; he had already thought of a solution.

"Then let's each do our own thing."

“I need to go back to the Zen-in family home first,” Maki replied.

The high school's magic weapon storehouse had been looted by the Zenin and Kamo families during the Shibuya incident, and she now only had the Yuuki sword in her possession.

I must go back and get a complete set of magical implements.

"I'll go into the barrier first and scout out the situation for everyone," Yi Gu said.

As a top-tier mage, he didn't need to team up with anyone; it was most appropriate for him to enter the barrier first and understand the situation.

"As for Fushiguro, Itadori, and Kugizaki, you should invite Kinji, a third-year student, to participate in the Death Annihilation Tour as well."

Judging from his personality, he probably won't agree to your request easily. But don't worry, he's a student of the Zen master, and out of respect for the Zen master, he won't make things difficult for you.

Yi Gu looked at Hu Zhang and the other two and said with a smile.

"Senpai? Is he the third-year student who appeared in Shibuya last time?"

Itadori was a little curious; he had never met any third-year students at Tokyo Vocational High School.

I've only heard from others that third-year students only listen to the Zen temple teachers and don't listen to the principal or higher-ups.

"Senior Libra's condition is very unstable, but I can tell you that when he's in good condition, he's even stronger than me, a special-grade mage."

Upon hearing this, Huzhang was somewhat bewildered.

What does "unstable state" even mean?

"Judging from this, it's probably some strange guy again." Kugizaki pouted.

After the division of labor was completed, each person set off to carry out their respective tasks.

Meanwhile, first-level sorcerers like Tian Tian and Qi Hai provided support as needed, since the entire country was covered by barriers and someone needed to be aware of the situation at all times.

Moreover, the high school also needs people to guard it. They can support Tiger Staff and his group at any time, and they can also support Tianyuan.

As for the other sorcerers, it depends on how Kyoto High School arranges them.

Kusakabe, for example, has already laid up his arms, citing injury as the reason.

Meanwhile, strange scenes are unfolding in different parts of the country due to the influence of the returning dead.

Many ordinary people have begun to realize the power of the technique.

Those with talent can even become comparable to a first-level mage in one fell swoop.

This is the effect of evolution.

More and more ordinary people are awakening their magical abilities and participating in the cycle of death and destruction. No one knows what the ultimate form of humanity will look like.

Somewhere in Tokyo, Zenji Shinsuke shattered the level one cursed spirit before him with a single punch, and wisps of heat emanated from the scriptures, flowing into his heart.

In an instant, my heart pounded twice, strong and powerful, like the deep sound of a drum.

An incredibly wonderful feeling spread through my body, every cell seemed to leap with joy, as if I had been elevated.

"finally..."

Zenji Jinsuke smiled. After several days of relentless killing, he had finally collected the last of his vital energy.

Consciousness sank into the mind, turning the pages of scriptures.

[Door open: 100%]

[Rest Gate: 100%]

[Life Gate: 100%]

......

[Surprise Attack: 100%]

[Dead Gate: 100%]

The entire eight pages of scripture were opened.

The Eight Gates Formation is now complete!

"The Death Return Tour has been going on for several days now. I'll go back to the high school to take a look. It'll be about time to bring Tsumiki in for a visit."

Despite the efforts of the people, including those who were desperate and yearning for peace, they could not find a solution.

In other words, Tsumiki's identity remains that of a swimmer.

Anyway, Tsumiki has almost become a half-sorcerer now, and since she has been asleep for so many years, it wouldn't hurt to take her out for some fun.

This is a good opportunity to try and recruit Wan to our side.

The other party certainly won't commit suicide easily, so the only option is to turn enemies into friends.

Chapter 109 The Purpose of the Higher-ups

In a forest, a moth sits on a broken log.

Sitting beside him was a cursed corpse, Xiao Wu, who could move on its own.

“Zhengdao, why do you look so listless? Everyone is worried about you.”

Xiao Wu smiled and comforted them, "But I told them that since you're feeling down, we'll encourage you and help you cheer up!"

"I see," Moth replied expressionlessly.

"I'm a genius, aren't I!" Xiao Wu said smugly.

Moth lowered his head, his thoughts drifting back to several years ago when he had just created the panda.

At that time, he was imprisoned by the higher-ups for creating a cursed corpse that could act independently and replenish its own curse power.

He was even almost recognized as a top-tier mage.

After all, being able to create such cursed remains means that he can build a massive army of cursed remains at any time.

The method for creating such cursed remains became something the higher-ups wanted to obtain.

Unfortunately... he flatly denied it, saying that the existence of pandas was just a coincidence and could not be replicated, which is why he narrowly escaped disaster.

However, the Shibuya incident will once again bring him a crisis, revealing something that has been overlooked by the higher-ups.

He understood that this time he would either die or hand over the method for creating a self-absorbing cursed corpse.

Moth reached out and patted Xiao Wu's head, then made up her mind, "I'm sorry, Xiao Wu, I have to leave for a while."

"It might take a long time, please pass this message on to everyone."

"Are you going on another business trip?" Xiao Wu asked.

"Yes, this time it will take a very long time, but don't worry, this forest is protected by Lord Tianyuan, and your mother will also come to see you."

So even if I disappear for a long time... everyone will be fine.

As he spoke, Moth's expression turned somewhat sad. After a moment of contemplation, he couldn't help but want to say goodbye.

I got up and walked deep into the forest. There was a big tree with its roots hollowed out and transformed into a small wooden house.

Opening the wooden house, one finds it filled with cursed remains of various shapes and sizes, each capable of independent action and autonomously absorbing cursed power.

"Zhengdao, everyone will miss you when you're not around."

Various cursed spirits bid farewell to the night moth.

They were like family, possessing human emotions.

Looking at the little creatures she had created herself, Moth remained silent for a long time before finally deciding to leave.

He wanted to see his son at least one last time before he died.

The place where prisoners are held inside the college.

A flash of light, the rope snapped, and the panda looked at the person before it and called out, "Kusakabe-sensei? May I leave now?"

Panda still doesn't understand what's going on. Ever since the Shibuya incident ended, the higher-ups have ordered him to be locked up.

“Panda, the higher-ups ordered your capture, but only as bait. Their real target is Moth.”

Kusakabe said calmly.

He pondered for a long time. Given his personality, he would never meddle in such a trivial matter, but since the moth had done him a favor...

He had to repay the favor of saving his beloved younger sister from despair.

"Now, I don't know if it's too late," Kusakabe reminded the panda.

He risked his life to rescue the panda, which was already the limit of what he could do. If he were asked to openly go against the higher-ups to save the moth, he wouldn't be able to do it either.

Upon hearing this, the panda immediately rushed out.

The high school, Moth returned here once again, but many masked sorcerers had already been waiting here for a long time.

"The Night Moth is on the right path, give up the resistance."

The sorcerer on the street lamp admonished the night moth.

Not everyone is qualified to oppose those in power.

Despite the masked sorcerer's persuasion, Moth took off her coat, revealing her muscular physique, and said, "Move aside, I need to see my son."

"Moth, do you know that the only way you can avoid death right now is to hand over the method for creating a self-supporting cursed corpse?"

The masked sorcerer's calm tone revealed the true purpose of the higher-ups.

The claims that he instigated Gojo Satoru and that Natsume Yuuki orchestrated the Shibuya incident are all false; the real reason he wanted to obtain the method for creating the Cursed Corpse from the Night Moth is false.

At the same time, Rakuganji, the principal of Kyoto College, also appeared at the entrance, carrying a guitar and looking calmly at the moth.

"Zhengdao, after all these years, do you really intend to die like this?"

Although he was a member of the upper echelons, Leyan Temple could not change the consensus of the entire upper echelons.

Even more so, the higher-ups sent him to deal with the Night Moth.

"Principal of Leyan Temple, stop talking nonsense. Don't you know what kind of person I am?"
