He wanted to take a rest, but his mind couldn't help but think of the reminder from the 'light' just now.
Obviously.
His 'light' discovered a space crack and gave a 'safe' judgment.
Because he had encountered several invasions, he was actually quite resistant to spatial rifts, so he didn't think much about it and returned directly with Bai Hexiang Phosphorus.
But after he was free, he couldn't calm down.
He doesn't want to invade other worlds through space rifts. He instinctively resists this kind of thing that destroys other people's peace.
But he also had to admit that he was very curious about the world after this space rift.
He desperately wanted to find out what a "lamp" was, and what the "Lamp Bearer" meant! Why did the strange "Lamp Bearer" in the Demon Slayer World want to invade the ninja world?
These problems cannot be solved by avoiding them.
He must bravely explore and find the answer through exploration.
And this time the space rift may be an opportunity, an opportunity for him to figure out what a 'Lamp Bearer' is!
Sitting up from the bed suddenly, he thought to himself: "I cover myself with the shadow of the lamp, so I won't pollute other people's world."
He felt that if he just went for a walk and didn't pollute or destroy, there should be no problem.
With this thought, he became increasingly unable to restrain his impulse.
He checked with his 'light' again: "Can I come back at any time?"
【Can...】
[It has been confirmed that the space rift leads to a safe area...]
Shinji stood up and put on the red cloud cloak of the Akatsuki organization again, put on a mask, and whispered to himself the code of conduct: "Don't pollute, don't destroy, don't communicate unless necessary, just observe..."
After completing the disguise, Shinji nervously shouted: "Open the space rift!"
[The space rift has been located...]
【Whether it is an invasion...】
Shinji opened his mouth, hesitated for a while, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "Invasion!"
Whoa...
Shinji disappeared into the apartment.
...
After a moment of spinning, Shinji found himself falling to the ground.
Before he could get up, he felt very uncomfortable in his throat, as if he was in a fire scene and the air he inhaled was filled with sparks.
Resisting the discomfort, he stood up and looked around, then froze on the spot.
The sky in this world looks like burnt glass, covered with mottled cracks.
Through the cracks, Shinji could faintly see the bottomless darkness outside the sky, and something seemed to be tumbling and roaring in the darkness!
There is no sun, no moon, or stars.
There were only billowing flames and scattered dust in the sky.
Withdrawing his gaze, Shinji looked around again.
He found that he was in a wasteland that had been ravaged by fire. Everything he saw was scorched black after burning, and sparks flickering in the scorched black.
"This is called a safe area!?"
Don't blame Shinji for his foul language.
He thought he was beautifying the place by saying that it had just suffered a nuclear explosion.
Then, he found a lamp appearing in his hand.
"My light!?"
He looked at it carefully.
The style of the lamp is very ordinary. There is an exquisite lamp kettle hanging on the bronze handle. There is a substance similar to gold sand flowing in the lamp kettle. However, there are not many mysterious substances that look like gold sand. They only hold the capacity of the entire lamp kettle.
one fifth.
After realizing that this was his "lantern", Shinji put the "lantern" into his red cloud cloak and hung it carefully around his waist.
Then, he looked into the distance warily.
When he looked around before, he had already noticed a few figures over there, but he didn't know their identity, so he didn't dare to get close easily.
Now it was confirmed that in the entire endless wasteland, there were only living creatures there, so after hesitating for a while, Shinji took a step forward and walked over.
After getting closer, he discovered that there were eight figures in the distance.
There were seven figures among them, all wrapped in black robes. Apart from their height, nothing could be seen. Only some edges and corners were printed on the robes, and one could barely guess what weapons might be hidden under the robes.
"Even the weapons are wrapped, so careful..."
Shinji's heart trembled.
Then, he noticed that although these seven figures kept their distance from each other, they seemed to be talking, as if they were carefully conducting some kind of transaction.
In addition to the seven figures, there is another figure.
It was a strong man nearly two meters tall. He was wearing an eyepatch and seemed to be injured. His body was covered with thick bandages. He was sitting on a boulder and smoking a cigar leisurely.
Seeing Shinji standing alone in the distance and watching, the strong man waved to Shinji.
Shinji remained unmoved, still standing at a distance, cautiously on guard.
The strong man stood up from the boulder and walked towards Shinji with a smile.
When he arrived, the strong man looked at Shinji: "Newcomer?"
Shinji was noncommittal.
Admit it and you will show your weakness, deny it and you will show your cowardice.
At the same time, he found that the other party was clearly speaking an unfamiliar language, but he understood it without any difficulty.
In addition, he also noticed that there was a lamp hanging on the other party's waist, but the gold-sand-like substance in the lamp pot had bottomed out, and for some reason, the small amount of gold-sand was blooming with a very brilliant light.
Feeling Shinji's gaze, the strong man looked down at the lantern on his waist and said with a smile: "These are embers. If you have rich embers, you can trade with them."
As he spoke, the strong man pointed at the seven figures in the distance who were all wrapped in black robes for fear of leaking their information.
Seeing that the other party had seen through him, Shinji simply asked: "Who are they?"
The strong man smiled: "Same as you."
"Those seven are all lantern bearers..."
Shinji was secretly shocked.
He thought he would invade a certain world, but he didn't expect that he would stumble into a world that seemed to be dedicated to providing transactions for the 'Lamp Bearers'.
The strong man said at this time: "Time is running out. If you want to trade something, hurry up!"
"What's the meaning?"
The strong man asked: "How long do you think this place can last?"
"What's going on here?"
As Shinji spoke, he became more vigilant.
Normal 'lantern bearers' were all wrapped in black robes like thieves, but the strong man in front of him had no cover at all and was so familiar with himself, which had to make Shinji feel wary.
What's more, in the lamp on the strong man's waist, the substance called 'embers', which is like gold sand, has obviously bottomed out, so the other party is probably planning his own agenda.
The strong man took a puff of his cigar and said in a casual tone: "What else could happen? I'm being targeted by the overlord!"
"overlord?"
The strong man pointed to the sky.
Shinji immediately realized that the 'overlord' the other party was talking about was the roaring giant shadow in the pitch black sky.
Even if you just look at it from a distance, that giant shadow will make your soul tremble... This chapter has been completed!
