Genshin Impact players in the world of Detective Conan

Compared to the previous situation where he only had a [Black Tassel Spear] and ran around naked, the improvement is quite significant.

"one two Three……"

As Zhongli silently counted, one by one, the long, narrow ghostly figures were pinned down by the golden rock spears that fell from the sky, instantly revealing their true forms.

The weak monsters that had been surrounding them, acting as their accomplices, scattered in an instant.

In the blink of an eye, the terrifying black wave dissipated, leaving only long, narrow ghostly figures groaning in agony on the ground.

Clearly, these monsters are extremely resilient.

The golden rock spears merely restrained their movements; they were not enough to kill them instantly.

"...eight, nine, ten."

Zhong Li's eyes flickered slightly. If he wasn't mistaken, there should be twelve such long, narrow ghostly figures, corresponding to the twelve cursed maple leaf coins.

But so far, he has only found ten.

Just then, the long, narrow ghostly figures that had been pinned to the ground by the emperor, completely unable to move and only able to struggle and wail, burst apart one by one, turning into thick clouds of black mist.

Drawn by an unseen force, the ominous black mist finally condensed and took shape in the center of the storage room, ultimately transforming into a brand-new, jet-black behemoth—

【Ogre's Calamity】Lv45.

This is a giant black dog with three heads and a mouth full of sharp teeth.

After it appeared, its three heads roared angrily at Zhongli in unison, and its six red eyes showed both fear of the golden rock spear and an extreme desire for flesh and blood.

"Is that true?"

Upon seeing this, Zhongli immediately raised his right hand and made a hand seal in front of his chest.

Only now did Yin Kong suddenly realize that the golden rock spear that the emperor had thrown earlier had not only pinned down the group of demons and monsters, but had also formed a huge ancient demon-subduing seal on the ground.

The golden mark immediately burst into a dazzling light, illuminating the entire storage room.

It also encircled the [Ogre Calamity] which was in the very center, causing it to let out a desperate roar.

Unfortunately, at this point, it was clear that it had no chance of escaping and simply vanished into nothingness in the light of the Demon-Subduing Ancient Seal.

"finished?"

Upon seeing this, Yin Kong couldn't help but ask.

Zhongli gently shook his head and looked at a shadowy corner of the storage room.

There, a small, dark shadow was cautiously creeping towards the window.

Despite its belief that it was perfectly hidden, how could it possibly escape the eyes of the Rock King?

"As long as we can get there..."

However, just as it had reached the crack in the window and thought it was about to escape, it saw a black night raven talking to it outside the window:

"Sorry, this place is full."

"It seems that this is yet another demon that has developed sentience."

Looking at the ghostly figure that had been stopped by Oz, Yin Kong sighed inwardly.

Compared to the behavior of those long, narrow ghostly figures, this shadowy figure was clearly much smarter.

However, its level is the lowest, only level eighteen.

Perhaps that's why it's not the leader among the many ghostly figures; otherwise, their actions would never have been so reckless.

Is it possible that this guy is like the juvenile form of Barbatos?

Just as Yin Kong was thinking this, the shadow had already transformed into its true form—

A lizard covered in tiny mouths.

At the same time, it opened its largest red mouth and stuck out its long, barbed tongue at Oz.

Fortunately, Oz was prepared. With a flap of his wings, he dodged the sneak attack and spat out a lightning bolt in retaliation.

Although Fischl was only level 10, Oz's lightning bolt hit the lizard's left eye precisely, causing it to writhe in pain on the spot.

It seems that while possessing wisdom allows one to seek advantage and avoid harm, it also makes one more sensitive to suffering.

Seeing this, Yin Kong understood.

If it were a normal monster, let alone just having one eye gouged out, even if Yin Kong churned their brains into mush with his sword, they would only continue attacking while screaming in pain.

In the end, it was Zhongli who pierced its body with a spear, finally ending its unbearable pain.

Now, it should be over, right?

Zhongli looked around the storage room and checked it carefully again. After confirming that there were no evil spirits left behind, he dispersed the rock spears he had thrown earlier.

Although it was inevitable that some holes would still be left in the original place, compared to his "Heavenly Movement" which directly blew up the entire company building, it should be considered relatively restrained, right?

Unfortunately, this company, Full Heaven Games, used wooden floors.

If it were ordinary ground, Zhongli could naturally use his rock elemental power to fill the gaps with soil or stone.

Of course, if Yin Kong has the opportunity to draw Abedo in the future, with the alchemy skills of this Son of Cretaceous, he can also achieve one-click repair without having to worry about the aftermath.

"Are those gold coins right here?"

Without needing any prompting, Yin Kong and his group had already located the storage compartment surrounded by the most elongated ghostly figures when they entered the storage room.

"Fortunately, it's just a simple mechanical structure."

It's clear that Xiao Lu has done her fair share of lock-picking and unlocking in her past detective career; with just a few simple fiddles, she opened the old-fashioned mechanical lock on the locker.

Yin Kong opened the box and, sure enough, found his target for this trip—

Twelve cursed maple leaf coins.

At the same time, the event interface also changed immediately:

The Twelve Trials are now open. Travelers can choose from three difficulty levels: Easy Mode, Normal Mode, and Challenge Mode.

Chapter 68 The Ogre's Calamity

Yin Kong opened the mission instructions and studied them carefully, discovering that the rewards for completing the three difficulty levels were no different.

Or rather, the rewards for this limited-time event were originally only two wind-type characters.

If it were a game, he might choose the highest "challenge difficulty" first to test the waters.

But now, Yin Kong, without saying a word, directly chose the lowest difficulty level, "Easy".

Thanks to Genshin Impact, which is known for its game that protects weak characters. Protecting weak characters is great, it's his favorite kind of game.

After opening the first instance, Yin Kong quickly discovered that he had been teleported into a completely unfamiliar fog.

Underfoot was a rough cobblestone path.

"here it is?"

Just as Yin Kong was observing his surroundings with suspicion, his ears suddenly twitched.

He heard footsteps approaching slowly behind him.

Although the other party's footsteps were very faint, indicating that they had undergone relevant training, they obviously could not escape the notice of Yin Kong, who had also received professional training.

When the footsteps came within three or four meters of Yin Kong, the other party paused for a moment, as if gathering strength.

Immediately, he lunged at Yin Kong, his gleaming dagger aimed at Yin Kong's lower back and plunged in.

What the attacker didn't expect was that at the moment he suddenly attacked, Yin Kong also turned around, and at the same time, the [Black Tassel Spear] in his hand turned into a blur, and a sweeping attack slammed into his face.

Yin Kong also clearly saw the attacker's appearance. It was a young and beautiful foreign woman with a face full of astonishment, disbelief, and several teeth that had been knocked out.

So the first trial is dealing with enemies attacking from the fog?

Yin Kong suddenly realized what was happening and felt a little relieved.

Fortunately, he had just undergone relevant special training.

Otherwise, they might not have been able to detect the sneak attack from behind in time.

However, just as Yin Kong was bracing himself for a new enemy, the words "Challenge Successful" suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

Wait, is that all?

Only then did Yin Kong come to his senses, staring in shock at the beautiful assassin he had shot away, now lying unconscious on the ground.

So this guy is all the monsters in the first trial?

"As expected of the easy mode."

Yin Kong remained silent for a few seconds before uttering this sigh.

Based on his experience just now, the other party was just an ordinary person. Perhaps he had received relevant training and mastered some stealth skills, but he was far from reaching the level of Hisaki Shinobu.

Even if Yin Kong didn't react in time and was stabbed in the kidney, he would only lose four or five hundred health points at most. Then, he could slap the attacker back and turn him into a melon rind, right?

The trials that followed were all pretty much the same.

Rainy night, underwater, secret room, ball...

Knives, swords, poison, bows and crossbows...

In each trial, Yin Kong would be teleported to a different environment and attacked by one or two assassins wielding different weapons.

Of course, they were all just ordinary people who had received training, just like the beautiful female assassins in the first trial.

The only ones that might be considered somewhat difficult are the eleventh and twelfth, which are the final two trials.

One is a professional gunman wielding a revolver, and the other, unlike previous levels where the assassin would launch a "frontal ambush," instead has bombs planted in the ball beforehand.

However, for both of these levels, the system provided very direct hints in advance, which even Paimon could understand, making it very thoughtful.

In short, Yin Kong successfully completed the [Easy Mode] in just ten minutes.

Just as he was excitedly trying to invite Wan Ye to join the team, he unexpectedly found that the system interface went black and changed again.

Once upon a time, there were twelve cursed gold coins—

Holy crap, there's even an animation?

Yin Kong was taken aback. Although it was normal for animations to appear in limited-time events, he did not expect that a new animation would appear in his limited-time event as well.

However, he quickly suppressed his shock and focused on watching the animation.

"Some people with special physical conditions were surprised to find that when they held these gold coins, they could see the phantom of the devil."

The so-called demons have different appearances, but they can clearly correspond to the "long, narrow ghostly figures" that Zhongli had previously pinned to the ground one by one with a single shot.

Of course, they are noticeably blurrier in the animation.

It seems that even holding a coin, one cannot see these "demons" as clearly as Yin Kong.

"They were drawn by the whispers of the devil and made a deal with them—"

Clearly, the one guiding these people was the lowest-ranking but only intelligent lizard, the "Demon."

"The demons bestow blessings upon humanity, allowing them to wield power that does not belong to them. In return, they inherit the demons' fanaticism for human flesh and blood, and in doing so, offer sacrifices to them..."

The screen flashed by, showing all sorts of people touching the maple leaf coins and then trading with demons.

Yin Kong also saw the "assassins" he had encountered in the twelve trials. Now it seemed that they were not assassins at all; the trials were just a reenactment of their murders.

But extraordinary power... does it exist?

At least Yin Kong felt that he hadn't noticed anything at all. Could it be because he had only selected the "simple mode"?

The animation continued as he pondered:

"They quickly formed a secret organization and, relying on demonic power, ran rampant in the shadows, slaughtering their own kind like pigs and dogs. The town of Verona Creek gradually turned into a paradise of sin..."

The animation has clearly been altered to some extent, adopting a relatively soft art style and using pigs and dogs to represent the victims of slaughter.

Even so, Yin Kong could still imagine the bloodshed that had taken place.

"However, these people were unaware that from the very beginning, what the demons wanted was not the so-called sacrifices, but their own souls, which had already fallen to the extreme. Some members noticed the demons' increasingly burning, greedy gazes and tried to escape, but were also captured and devoured..."

But soon, more and more members disappeared without a trace, which finally alerted the remaining members.

Even among demons, there are cunning ones who try to persuade their brothers and sisters to restrain themselves, but to little avail…

Yin Kong understood perfectly. How could those irrational demons possibly understand the principle of casting a long line to catch a big fish?
