Chapter 169 Killing Ghosts Increases Potential Points!?(1/3)
The fungus attacks the mountain.
A mountain that is not very high at an altitude.
The only feature is that you can see wisteria flowers everywhere from the foot of the mountain to the hillside.
The dense wisteria flowers hang down like purple curtains.
Apart from the sunlight, wisteria flowers are the most annoying thing for ghosts.
According to the characteristics of ghosts fear wisteria flowers, the butterfly ninja in the ghost killing team extracts toxins from wisteria flowers. Once these toxins are injected into the ghost's body, they will destroy their body structure to the greatest extent and kill the ghost from another perspective.
Therefore, the Butterfly Ninja obviously has weak physical strength and wrist strength, and does not have enough strength to cut off the ghost's head. However, with her superb drug-making ability, she became the only "insect pillar" in the ghost killing team that does not have the ability to directly kill evil ghosts but can assume the heavy responsibility of destroying ghosts.
In the original plot, Butterfly Ninja has been very sad after Kanae was killed.
In the final decisive battle, she was severely injured by the Tongmao of the Wind String, and suffered serious injuries all over her body, and was later absorbed by the Tongmao.
However, before the final battle, she was ready to die with Tong Mo.
She knew that with her strength, she was definitely not a match for Tong Mo, so she intaked 700 times the lethal dose of Vinegar toxin in her body in advance.
After Tongmo absorbed her into her body, the wisteria toxin began to take effect in the body.
In the end, Tongma's body dissolved and collapsed due to the toxin of Fujiya and was killed by the stepsons of Butterfly Ninja's subsequent arrival, Kurika Kanahu and the "Pigpie" Yuuhiro Hei Nosuke.
I have to say that in terms of medical care and drug production, Butterfly Ninja is a genius.
Only she can do the method of extracting wisteria toxins to deal with ghosts, because the process is too cumbersome.
During this period, after Nobuhiko's soft and hard foaming, Butterfly Ninja also taught Nobuhiko the method of drug production.
It’s not that she doesn’t want to, but that she thinks Nobuhiko’s sword skills are extremely talented and that it is extremely difficult to make drugs, so Nobuhiko should not be distracted from learning to make drugs.
However, after seeing Nobuhiko's perverted learning progress, Butterfly had nothing to say.
......
There is a platform paved with stones on the hillside, and at any distance, there are two thick red pillars standing.
All the swordsmen who participated in the trial this time are here. Nobuhiko looks like he looks at it, and there are 32 people in total.
Most of these swordsmen stayed alone, standing or sitting, and everyone's expression was very serious.
Only a very small number of people looked confident and seemed to be very confident in their strength.
The most eye-catching one is a girl about ten years old. She has short dark green hair and a kimono with blue water wave pattern, with cloud patterns printed on it.
She was the youngest swordsman in the grade and the only female swordsman present.
The other swordsmen are at least fourteen or fifteen years old.
It was Nobuhiko's sister Masaki.
"Brother!" Makoto kept looking around. After seeing Nobuhiko, he couldn't help but wave his hand hard, rushed to Nobuhiko's side quickly, and hugged him.
"Masa, why have you come to the trial too?!" Nobuhiko looked at Masa with surprise.
They would write letters every once in a while, but they didn't hear that Zhen Huan would come to take the trial.
"I heard that my brother was going to take the trial, so I begged Mr. Lin Taki to agree to me to take the trial. Sorry, brother, I shouldn't have made any decisions." Masaki explained in a low voice.
"So you have fully mastered the water breathing method?"
Since Masaki has arrived, Nobuhiko naturally cannot let her go back, nor will she blame her. After all, she was able to come here, obviously because she had received the consent of Rudae Zuoji.
"Yes, brother! I have mastered all the types of water breathing methods, otherwise Mr. Lin Taki would not agree to me going down the mountain."
Seeing that Nobuhiko was not angry, Makoto became happy.
Although she really wanted to see her brother, she didn't want to be a burden for her brother, so she worked extremely hard during her practice and soon she fully mastered the water breathing method.
Even Mr. Linlong praised her as a genius, which looked very similar to a child he once taught named Getu.
Nobuhiko looked at the joyful face of Shin-sama and knew that she was not happy to fully learn sword skills, but just wanted to help herself.
Holding Makoto's wrist and feeling the chakra that had grown a lot in her body, Nobuhiko's heart moved.
‘Sure enough, her physique is suitable for water breathing, and it also feeds back to chakra, which makes chakra much stronger. In this way, chakra can indeed be promoted within the Demon Slayer Team...’
The conversation between the brother and sister also attracted everyone's attention.
However, some people were surprised by the words of the real woman, while others were extremely disdainful.
Only ten years old, how can you fully master all the five basic breathing methods of water breathing?
But her brother, wearing two swords on his waist, looked very difficult to mess with, and his whole body exuded the aura of a strong man.
A few swordsmen who were descendants of the ghost hunter family came to Nobuhiko, responded to him with warm greetings and asked about his origin.
Nobuhiko was naturally greeted with a smile.
In addition to the ghost hunter family that lives in the headquarters of the Ghost Killing Team, these ghost hunter families scattered all over the country are the most dangerous.
Because they may be attacked by a large number of evil ghosts at all times.
But it is precisely because of this that they know the importance of unity.
Nobuhiko respects these people more.
As for some of the swordsmen present, they were descendants of the samurai. Due to the implementation of the sword ban order, the status of the samurai has dropped sharply.
The Demon Slayer is a civilian armed organization that is not recognized by the government, but it is accused of being hunted by ghosts by the government. Therefore, even if the sword is caught, it will be let go through various relationships.
Some swordsmen didn't even know what ghosts were. They just wanted to recast the glory of the warriors and joined the Demon Slayer Team.
Originally, such people could not be absorbed by the Demon Slayer Team, but with the sharp increase in the number of ghosts, the death rate of the Demon Slayer Team increased. Therefore, since recent years, the Demon Slayer Team has begun to expand its scale. Those who are willing to join can join as long as they pass the trial.
Of course, the only result of not being able to pass the trial is death.
As Nobuhiko and others talked, it was completely dark.
At this time, a beautiful woman in a purple kimono walked up with a lantern. She had a rare long white hair, which was the wife of Shikiya Shikiki Tenin, who was the main wife of Shikiya Shikiya.
Because of his physical inconvenience, Yoshiya Saya basically never left the house, but he memorized the names and life of each member.
Every trial, he would ask his family to preside over it, so that he could remember all the swordsmen who passed the trial and did not pass the trial.
"Thank you all for participating in the final selection of the Demon Killing Team tonight. I am the Thanoki Shikiki who is responsible for this trial. I will explain the rules of the trial to you.
The vine marching mountain was planted with wisteria flowers that were disliked by ghosts, but from the road above the mountain and starting from the road behind me, there will be no more wisteria flowers behind me.
There are ghosts caught by swordsmen, and they will appear at night.
Surviving in it for more than seven days is considered to pass a trial.
The trial begins now.
I wish you all prosperity for martial arts.”
After Saya Shikiki Tenyin finished speaking, she stepped aside and made way for the mountain.
Some swordsmen who had been unable to wait for a long time passed by her and rushed up the mountain.
Nobuhiko nodded to Masahiko.
Walk steadily towards the mountain.
Masaki followed closely, but after entering the dense forest, he left the opposite direction to Nobuhiko.
Seeing this, Nobuhiko said nothing.
In theory, teams can be formed during trials.
Because the ultimate goal of the Demon Slayer Team is to increase the team members, but not to let the swordsmen die.
Otherwise, Masaki's senior brother Yoshiaki would not have passed the trial directly after fainting after participating in the trial at the beginning and successfully passed the trial.
"Come on." Looking at Masaki's back as he quickly left, a hint of relief appeared in Nobuhiko's eyes. Masaki's strength has improved very quickly, far above his imagination.
As chakra grows, Nobuhiko's perception ability becomes stronger and stronger.
He could sense the ghosts who resumed movements nearby as night fell.
But none of them are very strong. Most of the ghosts here have only eaten a few people and are not strong enough.
Of course, it is relatively more important to not be strong. It is still very easy for ordinary ghosts to deal with two or three adults.
The strength of ghosts who have eaten humans will increase dramatically, and their strength and speed will be significantly improved.
As the number of people cannibals increases, the strength of ghosts will increase geometrically.
The gloomy forest was dark and faint, like a man-devouring beast, opening its mouth wide, waiting for the prey to come to the door.
"ah!"
Nobuhiko had only walked dozens of meters in the forest, and heard a shrill scream not far away.
He held the sword of the Sun Wheel Knife and quickly rushed towards the place where the screams came.
I saw the boy who rushed into the forest as soon as possible was covering his arms and crying in pain.
"My hand! My hand! Ah~"
His right hand holding the knife broke from his forearm, and he rolled on the ground in pain.
To be continued...
