Chapter 51: The Rage Plot Chapter 51: The Rage Plot
After listening to Lao Lang's narration, Lin Yi finally understood the whole story.
Laolang and his crew have been busy completing missions for the Demon Slayer Corps recently in order to advance their positions and complete the main quest (2).
The most recent mission assignment was located in Taikoo County.
After arriving at Taigu County, Laolang and his team began to search for the mission target as usual.
They shuttled through the streets and alleys of the town, carefully searching for any traces of ghosts.
Just when Laolang and his team found some trace of evil ghosts and were about to submit the mission, three evil ghosts appeared out of nowhere above their heads.
Under the bright moonlight, Old Wolf clearly saw the numbers engraved in the eyes of the three ghosts - Two of the Lower Moon, Three of the Lower Moon and Six of the Lower Moon.
These three numbers were like a bolt from the blue. Without saying a word, the old wolf turned around and ran away.
A single Ling Yuzi almost wiped out several people. Facing these three monster-level beings, Lao Lang and his group had almost no chance of winning.
They had no choice but to escape.
The situation was extremely critical at the time, and Laolang decisively threw a flash bomb at the critical moment.
The dazzling light burst out instantly, catching the three ghosts off guard, and also provided a chance for other members of the team to escape.
They took this opportunity to show their strengths and tried their best to escape from the pursuit of the Twelve Demon Moons.
But Laolang was not so lucky.
He was targeted by the strongest of them, Lower Moon Two, and became the target of attack.
During the escape, the old wolf tried his best and used all his trump cards to try to get rid of the pursuit of the windlass.
Unfortunately, these methods could only temporarily hinder his pursuit in front of the windlass, but could not completely get rid of the opponent's pursuit.
After running out of props, Windlass grabbed the old wolf by the throat.
The blow damaged his vocal cords, causing his voice to become hoarse and making it almost impossible for him to utter a single word.
The three ghosts seemed to be playing with their prey. They treated Old Wolf and his companions like a cat playing with a mouse, cruelly and mercilessly.
They did not seem to be in a hurry to kill the old wolf and his companions, but rather preferred to enjoy the thrill of chasing and hunting.
Just when Laolang thought he was about to die at the hands of Windlass, Tamayo and Yushiro arrived in time.
They rescued Old Wolf and Ghost from the windlass, giving them a glimmer of hope.
If Tamayo had arrived a few minutes later, Laolang and his group would probably have been wiped out.
After arriving at Tamayo's clinic, Laolang finally had a chance to breathe.
He took out the talisman and sent out the crow to notify Lin Yi, which led to the arrival of Lin Yi and Shinobu Kocho.
Lin Yi frowned. He had some understanding of the plot of Demon Slayer, but the situation before him had obviously deviated from the normal development trajectory of the derivative world.
"Strange, in the original story, I remember that it was Tanjiro who killed Lower Moon Five, and then Muzan Kibutsuji got furious and gathered all the Lower Moons together to clean them up." Lin Yi muttered to himself, "But now the plot hasn't progressed to this step, but Lower Moon Two, Lower Moon Three, and Lower Moon Six have already appeared."
He realized that the plot of this world seemed to have begun to develop in an unknown direction.
The original plot clues were broken and new variables followed.
This is undoubtedly a huge test for Lin Yi.
"I'm not sure, but in any case, doctor, you must be careful."
Having said that, Old Wolf couldn't help but cough twice.
His vocal cords are severely damaged and he cannot speak too much at one time, otherwise his throat will feel very uncomfortable.
"Okay, you stay here and recover, and don't worry about the main quest for now. I'll talk to Ubuyashiki Yoshiya when I get back. As long as the difference in contribution points is not too big, there shouldn't be any big problems."
Lin Yi is not a heartless person. He sees and remembers the efforts made by Lao Lang and his group.
Since Lao Lang and the others remember their mission, Lin Yi doesn't mind helping them at the critical moment.
If you want to get involved in the underworld, of course you have to find ways to make as many friends as possible, and try not to resort to violence. As a pastor, fighting and killing is too unbecoming.
Lao Lang nodded, and in his heart he just wanted to get through this derivative world.
After leaving the bed, Lin Yi walked straight to Zhu Shi.
"Ms. Tamayo, thank you very much for saving my friends." Lin Yi said straight to the point, "I want to know if there are any new developments from Muzan Kibutsuji recently?"
Tamayo frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and finally spoke to break the silence.
There was a hint of helplessness and worry in her tone: "To be honest, we know very little about Muzan Kibutsuji's specific plan. However, judging from the recent frequent events, he seems to be secretly brewing a major conspiracy."
She paused, turned her gaze to Lin Yi, and continued, "I think this may be related to your active performance in the Demon Slayer Corps, Mr. Lin. Your presence and actions have undoubtedly attracted the attention of Muzan Kibutsuji."
Lin Yi couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, realizing the urgency of the situation.
Since the other party has already launched the action in a high-profile manner, there is no need for them to keep a low profile any longer.
He asked Tamayo directly: "Ms. Tamayo, do you have any way to catch up with the waning moon?"
Tamayo nodded and took out a glass box containing a butterfly from behind her.
The butterfly in the box was flying in one direction, but it was blocked by the glass box and could not fly out.
She explained: "Those ghosts have a special scent on their bodies. As long as they are within a certain range of the butterflies, the butterflies can sense their presence."
After taking the glass box containing the butterfly, Lin Yi and Shinobu Kocho said goodbye to Tamayo together.
When the two left the clinic, Tamayo's little follower Yushiro trotted out behind her.
"Ms. Tamayo asked me to give this to you. She said it can help you in the battle." Two potions appeared in Yushiro's hands, one was dark purple and the other was dark red.
Lin Yi took the medicine and expressed his gratitude to Yushiro.
After taking the medicine, the system prompt appeared in front of Lin Yi.
