The ninjas hid in the mountains and forests where they could hide and kill, and were nowhere to be found.
"Did you scare Masato Shikano away?" Chiyuki Saba heard what happened before and couldn't help but stabbed Hosoda Yoshiyuki with words, "With your rash attitude, we will never be able to complete the mission."
"If I don't shoot, we will be the ones who die." Yoshiyuki Hosoda sighed, his tone full of disdain, "The ninjas just come and go like the wind, what can I do."
"The only thing is to find a way to catch the target." Linyin said, "...We have to formulate a perfect battle plan."
"If you agree with me to take Masato Kano's head back in exchange for a bounty, I can help," Ozuki Masuji reminded, "You just take his props and money. In addition, I will share a portion of the bounty with you."
In fact, everyone was not arresting Masato Kano, but looking for Ruri Yaguchi. Rinne looked at him. However, multiple helping hands would also be good.
After replenishing ammunition, they returned to inspect the damaged Mizhu Temple.
"The monastery itself is a commanding height with a good view. The ninjas should have fought with the monk soldiers for a while before capturing it." Ozuki Masuke squatted down and observed the corpse of the monk soldier, "The time of death of the monk is about 4 to 6 hours."
"If the heavy rain hadn't stopped us, we might have caught up to the end of the battle." Lu Jing felt regretful, "So we missed it."
"Kill Masato Shikano to avenge the monk." Ozuki Masuke turned his head.
"Look around to see if Masato Kano has left any traces." Yoshihiro Hosoda walked towards the depths of the temple.
"The dead animals seemed to have been killed together with the monks." Miying saw small killed animals near the central vegetable garden of the monastery, which were also rotten.
"Footprints." Ozuki Masusuke stood on the top of the wall that the ninjas once occupied and found that their footprints led to the cliff and the seaside. They came silently, but when they were frightened away by Hosoda Yoshiyuki, they ran away.
Not caring about cleaning up the traces, "They seem to have set up a camp nearby. Thinking about it carefully, they probably returned to the camp after cleaning the monastery, but were alerted by your movements up the mountain, so they came to besiege you again."
"So we may be one step away from the ninja army." Hosoda Yoshiyuki mused.
"But they are afraid of your full arsenal, so they will only fight in roundabout ways." Ozuki Zosuke analyzed, "Once you enter the woods, cliffs and mountains, you will fall into the ninja's scheme. You will be particularly vulnerable in such places."
Linyin drove the Anonymous to conduct high-altitude reconnaissance.
"I saw a cleared landing field on the seaside, and there were some sneaky people there." Linyin looked down at the surrounding coastline and saw an area built in a rush to resemble an apron, with a transmitter placed on it.
The beacons and low-altitude identifiers seemed to be specially used to greet aerial vehicles. She photographed the images and transmitted them to the team members.
That was probably used to help Yaguchi Ruri escape overseas. Rinne thought to herself. She has been hunted by Nisto Company and has been chased to the seaside. Has she finally contacted someone who has the ability to evacuate her?
"In this case," Hosoda Yoshiyuki secretly replied, "we will wait and see. As soon as the rescue shuttle arrives, Yaguchi Ruri and Kano Masato will definitely show up."
"No, maybe this is just a false target deliberately made to attract our attention." Lu Jing sent a message, "When we put all our attention on this 'small airport', they can quietly steal Yaguchi's attention."
Liuli is shipped away."
"According to what you say," Hosoda Yoshiyuki replied sarcastically, "Maybe Yaguchi Ruri has left long ago, and Kano Masato is just here to play tricks with us. He is so free that he even has time to throw the monk's head out to mock us.
, just for fun? Don’t you think it’s weird?”
"Don't be so aggressive." Linyin replied in a scolding tone, "We are a team, and the communication channel is not used to vent your anger."
Lu Jing did not participate in the reply. She watched the conversation in the communication channel in her virtual vision, her brows furrowed, doubts, confusion and fear spreading among the team.
If this continues, they will be destroyed in this mission.
This is a brilliant ninjutsu. Lu Jing secretly thought. The ninjas did not cause actual damage to everyone at all, but they have overawed people with fear and suspicion. Masato Luye hid in the dark side of the forest like this, which probably affected their current split.
It's crystal clear.
After all, apart from a few individuals, the members of the "disciples" team do not have a particularly deep bond, and there is no one who can act as a leader.
Thinking of this, Lu Jing half-heartedly turned off the communication and looked back at the team. He found that everyone had scattered around the monastery to collect supplies and was in a passive state. Only Ogyue Zengzhu was still staring at the forest.
"You miss Masato Luye very much?" Lu Jing asked.
"My ability limit is very high. If I play it perfectly, I should be able to defeat him. He is also the most valuable target I can find." Ozuki Masuke said in a calm voice.
"If you care so much about money, no wonder you become a bounty hunter."
"Based on my strength, I could have retired a long time ago." Ozuki Masosuke said gloomily, "You should also be able to recognize that I am not some desperado that can be seen everywhere."
"Then why are you so worried about money?" Lu Jing was curious.
"Beloved woman." Ozuki Masuke squatted on the edge of the temple, looking at the deep forest and seaside cliffs. They constitute an absolutely dangerous place with complex terrain. You must muster the courage to go deep. "A kind of cancer. The doctor said there is hope for cure. I suggest
She participates in experimental therapy and needs to use experimental drugs produced by Lighthouse Core, which are too expensive."
"It's like being used as a test subject... How much does the medicine cost?"
"A box of medicine costs one hundred and seventy thousand, which lasts for a month."
"It's a pity." Lu Jing sighed, "But if Masato Luye is killed, she will definitely have money for medical treatment."
"Money..." Ogyue Zengsuke said softly, and then said nothing, as if regretting that he had said so many irrelevant things to Lu Jing.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! He is carrying a samurai sword and sitting on the slope east of the monastery, still looking capable.
"We haven't decided how to act yet." Lu Jing explained that she was a delicate person by nature, but she could feel the sadness in Ogyue Zensuke.
"It doesn't matter, the Ninja Master thinks he is safe now, but he will be killed by Nisto Company one day." Ozuki Masusuke stood up, "Nisto Company has taken over all public security affairs, and the orders are getting fewer and fewer. Maybe reward
Gold hunters are becoming a historical term in the northern archipelago."
We were sent by Nisto Company, Lu Jing secretly said, but he couldn't tell.
"You can join Nisto Company." Lu Jing said insinuatingly.
"The money is coming in too slowly. They treat every employee slowly. Most of the positions are for subsistence." Ozuki Masuke said calmly, "People who are in urgent need of money and are heavily in debt cannot afford to wait, so
There will still be people in the northern archipelago who take desperate risks, and there will still be people who are desperadoes."
"Follow me." Lu Jing brought Ogyue Zensuke back to the center of the temple. They collected the remains of the monk first, and then Lu Jing put forward her suggestion, "...Mr. Ogyue Zengsuke is an experienced bounty hunter.
I think we can listen to him at this point, and we want to communicate openly and honestly any information that could help catch Masato Kano."
"Is he trustworthy?" Hosoda Yoshiyuki wondered.
"If the mission fails, everyone will be disappointed with us, so... we must try." Lu Jing nodded vigorously.
Miying looked at Haoyue Zengzhu for a while, and suddenly came up with a new action plan.
"Have you followed any 'mysterious people'?" Miying asked, "Maybe you understand those powerful beings."
"No, nothing." Ouzue Zengsuke frowned, "My spells are all proven and clean spells. They will only increase the burden on the body and will not sell the soul to the monster."
This bounty hunter is a completely unbelieving pure human here. According to Miying's analysis, he should be adaptable to the secrets of the forest. Chiyuki Shaba is also a pure human, but he mainly practices the power of the moon, which is different from the nature of the forest.
"This barren mountain forest actually has spiritual power that can be utilized." Miying explained, "It would be great if Hazy Moon Zengzhu could help release a spell. According to records, this spell can help us teleport to the target. As long as we know
His name, and He is indeed in the forest."
"Transport directly to Masato Shikano?" Yoshiyuki Hosoda was excited.
"Yeah." Miying nodded seriously. At least that's what the internal report on the disk said.
After the cooperation, the Lord of the Forest provided many occult files, but there are currently not many occasions to verify their effectiveness.
If you have a deep bond with the Lord of the Forest, you should be able to directly summon the wrath of the earth. But now everyone is complex. They are either unbelievers, not like humans, or have mixed beliefs. It is difficult to communicate with the Lord of the Forest in depth.
On the contrary, only the bounty hunter Ozuki Zosuke seems to be able to participate in the ceremony as a "normal and ordinary human being".
"Is there such a convenient technique? You can give it a try." Hazuki Zengsuke turned his head, feeling more and more surprised, "But... who are you?"
"Follow me." Miying led Ouzuki Zensuke to the old tree that was knocked down by Hosoda Yoshiyuki. Such an ancient tree can be used as a ceremonial point to connect with the Lord of the Forest.
She read the internal documents of Nisto Company on the disk, drew ancient secret symbols on the soil, and prayed to the Lord of the Forest for help.
At least 40 ancient secret texts with complex patterns were drawn, and people held their breath.
A sublime atmosphere arose spontaneously. They looked at each other and exchanged glances, feeling the absolute tranquility in this vast natural world.
Immediately afterwards, the secret text disappeared into the soil, rumbling sounds were heard one after another, and vines rose up like living snakes. This scene was quite terrifying, as it danced rapidly in the air! It was almost furious.
"Ozuki Zensuke! Catch him quickly!" Miying ordered, "Then shout the name of the ninja!"
Ogyue Zengzhu's expression changed and he immediately grabbed these vines.
"Shikano Masato!" Ozuki Masusuke shouted.
In an instant, the vines grabbed his wrist and dragged his entire arm into the soil. His body quickly slid to the ground, as if the earth had swallowed him up and swallowed him up!
"His arm is going to be broken! Where is the other person?" Lu Jing was shocked.
Ozuki Masuke disappeared into the pit, and there was still a jumping green brilliance shining underneath.
"He became a sacrifice?" Chiyuki Saba looked pale, "The earth ate him!"
"I don't know!" Miying just worked according to the files on the disk.
"If it really teleports to Masato Luye, wouldn't he fight a hundred of them one by one?" Lu Jing shouted.
"Fight!" Hosoda Yoshiyuki stretched out his hand towards the green light, and more vines stretched out from the ground and pulled Hosoda Yoshiyuki in.
…
On the other side, Masato Shikano was sitting cross-legged in the forest clearing, showing lunch boxes to the ninjas.
"Sushi is an important fuel for ninjas, so we must pay attention to it." Masato Shikano listed the master's lunch box on the tablecloth for everyone, "Look, salmon sashimi, sea bream roll, sweet shrimp warship, foie gras, three meals a day
Meal is also a ninja's training."
"Oh!" The ninjas were very satisfied.
boom!
The soil suddenly cracked, and the towering clods of soil and blades of grass blew away the sushi in front of Masato Kano. He quickly used the teleportation technique to distance himself.
"Die!" the ninjas slapped the ground and stood up.
"You kid..." Masato Luye glanced at the sushi scattered on the floor, filled with anger, and snorted coldly, "You really don't take us seriously..."
Ozuki Masusuke jumped in the air, dodging the shurikens that were shooting at him, his expression tense.
Immediately afterwards, the ninjas saw an even more terrifying modified man crawling out of the soil!
"Hey...isn't this a meeting place for ninjas?" Yoshiyuki Hosoda looked around, and when he saw that he had gotten his wish, he showed a bloodthirsty expression. In contrast, the ninjas were panicked.
