While these fire tornadoes, some twenty or thirty inches thick, certainly seemed powerful, compared to the colossal tornadoes he had witnessed before—those towering, earth-shattering tornadoes that appeared to be moving natural disasters—they were clearly insignificant, even negligible.
This is understandable, given that at that time the demon sword was not only in its complete form, but its user was also a terrifying demon like [Kurabane Onikiri].
The gap between the two sides is so large that it cannot be measured.
"And—Prison Dragon Break?"
Before this, Yin Kong had guessed from the names "Tessaiga" and "Murakumo-ga" that the two swords must be closely related.
Now, hearing the almost identical names of the moves, 【Prison Dragon Break】 and 【Explosive Flow Break】, he can probably confirm his suspicions.
It's unclear why a sword belonging to a yokai during the Warring States period became a demon's sword and ended up in the hands of Karasuma Renya.
Moreover, it has become a state that ordinary people cannot touch.
Yin Kong's admission was enough to pull the demons into the real world. So how can they be banished again?
Does Yin Kong have to say to them again, "The world has rejected me?"
The answer is obviously not that simple.
Since Yin Kong had already experienced it, he said to those demons he had acknowledged, "I can't see you."
The result is--
Nothing came of it.
Those demons will still exist in the real world; they have not become illusory again because of this.
Zhongli explained that there are many kinds of recognition, and being able to have a dialogue in itself represents a kind of recognition.
For example, with Yotsuya Miko, the demons didn't necessarily need to hear the reply "I see you" before they could attack her; they only needed to confirm it through words and reactions.
Of course, theoretically speaking, as a descendant, since Yin Kong can give these demons the basis for their existence through words, he naturally also has the ability to deny them.
However, that would probably be after he had grown to the point where his power was commensurate with his rank.
Of course, while Yin Kong was deep in thought, young Gin was no match for the fiery tornado and was swept away.
After all, his current level is no more than level 20, and he does not have the superb martial arts skills of Zhongli or Tartaglia. How can he defeat an enemy whose strength is more than 20 levels higher than his own?
However, Gin didn't actually need to defeat his opponent.
Since the power is so great, the price is naturally exceptionally high.
According to Yin Kong's estimate, the "Youth Gin" will be completely exhausted in a minute and a half at most.
As long as they can find a way to stall for time and get through the period when the demon sword activates its power, young Gin will naturally be able to win without a fight.
Unfortunately, even so, it seems unrealistic.
The disparity in strength between the two sides was simply too great; for young Gin, even merely stalling for time was a pipe dream.
Under Vermouth's watchful gaze, young Gin was beaten like a punching bag, flying through the air without any chance to fight back.
Judging from this guy's posture, if it weren't for the high temperature and flames all around, he probably would have taken out his phone and taken several photos on the spot as a souvenir.
Finally, about half a minute later, "Young Gin" grabbed Young Gin by the throat with one hand and lifted him off the ground.
"what are you up to?"
Although his body felt like it was falling apart and he couldn't even resist, young Gin stared straight into the crimson eyes of "young Gin" and asked with a frown.
Logically speaking, the other party had far too many opportunities to kill him.
However, they did not do that, seemingly just to deprive him of all ability to resist.
"Young Gin" naturally didn't answer, but simply raised the demon sword in his hand and aimed it at the heart of young Gin.
"No, you are the consciousness within the demon sword?"
Young Gin finally discovered the key to the problem.
The behavior of "Young Gin" at this moment is clearly no longer simply a matter of being controlled by evil energy, but rather a genuine awareness that can think for himself and weigh the pros and cons.
At this moment, it clearly did not want to fall into obscurity again so soon, so it naturally chose to abandon the body of "young Gin" and take over the body of young Gin.
For it, this might be the most familiar place.
However, just as the demon sword was about to pierce Gin's heart, two fingers suddenly appeared and clamped the blade between them.
No matter how hard "Young Gin" tried, the demon sword could not penetrate any further.
"you--?!"
Upon seeing the sudden appearance of Yin Kong, the demon sword consciousness that had taken over the body of "Young Gin" finally let out a sound other than a roar.
He had barely opened his mouth, before he could even finish speaking, when Yin Kong slapped him on the forehead.
In the golden light, all the tentacles that were wrapped around "Young Gin" disappeared.
The demonic sword, which had been exuding an evil aura, instantly returned to calm.
Chapter 263 Cannon Fodder
After thinking for a moment, Yin Kong disassembled the demon sword that had already been pieced together back into pieces and put it back into his backpack for safekeeping.
On the quest page, the progress of collecting the Demon Blade Fragments suddenly jumped significantly, with only three more fragments needed to complete the quest.
Logically speaking, Yin Kong should already be able to start the quest and reforge the four-star one-handed sword [Congyunya].
However, it is clear that given his current situation, he will not give up the five-star [Kusanagi Sword] and choose a four-star weapon instead.
"How pathetic, Gin." On the other side, looking at the young Gin lying on the ground, panting softly, Vermouth couldn't help but smile with a hint of schadenfreude. "Do you need me to get you a cane?"
Clearly, the "interference and obstruction" among members of the distillery is commonplace and has almost become an industry norm.
Even Vermouth herself had done something similar not long ago, instigating Gin to cause trouble for Yoon Sora, which led to all the subsequent events.
But when it's her turn to be scammed, how could she possibly not care at all?
"I'm really surprised that you're still alive."
Gin snorted softly, responding defiantly.
Strictly speaking, this was the first time they had met again since leaving the United States.
However, even though less than a month had passed, both of them couldn't help but feel a sense of déjà vu, as if a lifetime had passed.
After all, their stance, strength, and circumstances have undergone tremendous changes.
Just then, they heard the sound of helicopter rotors overhead.
The fire tornado that "Young Gin" just stirred up has clearly attracted the attention of the police, who even sent a helicopter to check the situation.
Seeing this, Yin Kong also spoke up:
"Let's leave first; this isn't the place to reminisce."
Vermouth nodded, snapped her fingers lightly, and pulled the struggling Gin into the Mirror World.
"Wait, take him with you too."
Seeing that Vermouth seemed to really intend to leave, young Gin immediately pointed to the "young Gin" lying on the ground, his life hanging in the balance.
Vermouth glanced at Gin with interest and teased:
"Since when has Gin been able to save people?"
Gin closed his eyes, seemingly too lazy to answer the question, and began to focus on guiding the Abyss power within him to repair his body.
Because he knew very well that even without his own request, Vermouth should have taken this "young Gin" away at this moment.
Firstly, leaving this guy at the scene would only increase the police's suspicion and cause unnecessary trouble;
Secondly, he was clearly a subordinate sent by Karasuma Renya.
Although given Karasuma Renya's cunning and shrewdness, this guy is most likely just a brainwashed, pitiful cannon fodder who has no right to access the real core secrets, there's always a chance of something going wrong.
Both morally and logically, they should take the other back for proper interrogation.
Gin believed that with Vermouth's experience and intelligence, it was impossible for her not to have thought of these things.
The reason for doing this is probably to see his reaction, right?
Seeing Gin close his eyes and not intending to speak again, Vermouth understood.
After nodding to Yin Kong, she dragged the faintly breathing "young Gin" into the mirror world as well.
A few minutes later, the group had returned to the Rabbit House.
Of course, they didn't return to the crowded front desk, but instead went to Yin Kong's apartment.
That's an enviable ability.
Seeing this scene, young Gin couldn't help but feel a bit complicated.
Such abilities would be virtually invincible in assassination and intelligence gathering.
Fortunately, Vermouth had already betrayed the organization like him; otherwise, having such an enemy would have been enough to annoy him to death, even if he couldn't kill him directly.
"Grandpa Diamond Pickaxe, you're back."
Upon noticing Yin Kong's arrival, Ouluoren naturally rushed over immediately.
Upon hearing the term "my dear grandson," Vermouth's expression inevitably became quite strange.
What kind of weird play is this?
Orloren glanced at Vermouth and Gin, but did not address them as Grandpa and Grandma as he did the others in the Rabbit House.
Soon, Yin Kong saw the attackers.
Completely opposite to Vermouth and Gin, these guys were unusually ordinary in appearance and attire, basically the kind that you could easily lose in a crowd and not be found again.
The only thing they had in common was that they all had somewhat wooden expressions and were relatively slow to react to the outside world.
"These guys originally planned to plant explosives outside the Rabbit House, but luckily Grandma Candice discovered it in time..."
Although taking revenge on the Rabbit House was just a side effect, it wasn't as easy as Yin Kong had imagined.
After the inspection, Orlan discovered that the explosives these guys were carrying were powerful enough to blow the entire apartment building to smithereens.
If they hadn't discovered it beforehand, everyone in the Rabbit House might have been fine, but the other people living in the apartment building would probably not have been so lucky.
It can only be said that he is indeed worthy of being the BOSS of the Black Organization; his style is indeed consistent with his predecessors.
Upon hearing this, Yin Kong couldn't help but glance at Gin.
After all, in his memory, this was a similar type of character in the movie, a bomb maniac who would blow up entire buildings at the drop of a hat.
“Normal interrogation is useless; their memories are likely fabricated.”
The power of the abyss is indeed extraordinary. In just a few minutes, the young Gin, who was covered in wounds and almost unable to move normally, has basically recovered.
Yin Kong looked at him and asked:
"It sounds like you know these people very well?"
The young Gin looked at the unconscious "young Gin" and said with lowered eyes:
Because he used to be one of those guys too.
These seemingly dull individuals are not normal humans, but rather clones created in a laboratory.
In just three months, an embryo can be induced to grow into an adult, and then false memories can be implanted, thus obtaining a batch of "cheap and effective" cannon fodder.
The downside is that these cannon fodder not only have extremely short lifespans, usually not exceeding one year—
This is even under the condition that special nutritional solutions need to be taken regularly.
Without the support of specially formulated nutrient solutions, they would die from organ failure within a week at most.
At the same time, because their thinking and memory are entirely instilled, their ability to think independently is extremely low.
They are rigid and inflexible, making it difficult for them to perform multiple tasks like other members of the organization.
However, from another perspective, aren't these also advantages?
Chapter 264 Ye Lan's Plan
"These guys aren't actually part of the organization."
That's what Gin said.
