Chapter 347 Jade Foot Subdues Hundred Foot
Compared to the fragile small centipede and the large centipede that cannot stop bullets, the giant centipede showed an almost invincible posture from the beginning, like an armored train running rampant on the battlefield.
Able to support such a huge body, the giant centipede's shell is not only thick but also hard as fine iron. Especially the densely packed centipedes on both sides, which are no different from spears made entirely of metal. Even if it falls on a rock, sparks will be emitted. If a person is caught in it, there is no way to get out intact. However, Karakumaru had already prepared for this.
When the ninja hiding in the dark saw the centipede step into the ambush circle, he immediately ignited the poisonous dragon drill he carried with him and fired from all angles. At once, dozens of thick and long flames appeared everywhere in the mountain.
The large amount of explosives caused a huge tail flame to spew out from the tail of the rocket launcher. If the holder had not been lying down at an angle to fire, with his lower body misaligned with the direction of the tail of the rocket launcher, one shot would have probably roasted the camel's hump halfway through.
Although the huge tail flame exposed the lurking ninjas, it also brought huge impetus.
The rocket that flew out of the launch tube shook a little in the air, but when the tail fins were deployed, the flight direction was stabilized and it did not deviate much, continuing to fly towards the approximate location of the target.
The contact happened soon. After hitting the target, the fine steel barbed spear under the rocket fairing triggered the explosive tube directly connected to the middle section. The force of the explosion was like a hammer hitting a nail, impacting the one-piece cast spear, allowing it to pierce through the obstacle firmly and at the same time injecting all the viscous liquid inside the hollow spear head into it.
However, not every poisonous dragon drill is so lucky. The shell on the back of the centipede is too thick and strong, and the explosive tube in the middle section does not detonate fast enough, making it easy for the bullet to ricochet.
Compared to the armor-like carapace on the back, the centipede's abdominal carapace is relatively soft, but it also depends on the angle of the hit. Generally speaking, it is effective, but it is difficult to be fatal, especially for such a huge target.
"Damn humans, I'm going to eat you alive!" Feeling the pain, the giant centipede didn't intend to fight back. It opened its ferocious mouth in anger, and while roaring angrily, it also spewed out a large amount of poisonous fog, covering the surrounding mountains and forests.
No one expected that the giant centipede's toxicity was so strong. The ninjas who had taken antidotes and put on gas masks in advance were only infected with a little bit, and their flesh and clothes were corroded. Large areas of grass and trees were dead. Only the giant centipede was not affected at all when it walked through the poisonous fog. Instead, it felt like a fish in water.
There is no way to fight this. Even with thousands of troops, they cannot stop this out-of-control train loaded with aqua regia.
"Collect." Princess Fukushima, who had been watching, took out a jade bottle from her long sleeves, pointed the bottle mouth at the poisonous fog, and shouted softly. The diffuse poisonous fog was like oil smoke encountering a range hood, and all of it, from coarse to fine, was drawn into the jade bottle without a single leak.
This is a magic weapon specially made by Yan Xu for Princess Fukushima. Although it is not an imitation of the Jade Bottle in the hand of Guanyin, but the Green Mirage Bottle, its power cannot be underestimated. Therefore, after the poisonous fog dissipated, the suction force did not disappear, but instead turned to the poison sac in the mouth of the centipede.
The giant centipede feeds on its body and poisonous mist, and is not very strong in other aspects, so it cannot resist the suction. The pink flesh tubes on both sides of its mouthparts that spewed poisonous mist were sucked out to a foot long. Finally, it could not withstand the force of extraction and was stretched open from the inside to the outside. The venom inside poured out and was sucked out in the blink of an eye. Even a centipede poison bead hidden in the deepest part was sucked into the bottle, without a drop left.
Having lost the poison bead and the accumulated venom, the centipede, feeling empty, lonely and cold, staggered. If it had not had many legs, it would have fallen to the ground. Even so, it still exposed its weakness.
"You actually stole my poison bead!" The giant centipede became anxious without the poison bead. Regardless of being weak, it exerted its strength, propped up its huge body and rushed towards Princess Fukushima regardless of anything, determined to take the poison bead back.
"You don't know what's good for you." Fukushima frowned and stepped forward to greet him. From the unfolded kimono, you can see that Fukushima is not wearing shoes or socks. Her soft and moist feet are hidden from time to time under the gorgeous clothes, just like a kitten stretching out its pink paw pads to tease its owner. She is seen stepping on the water vapor with her elegant bare feet and rising into the air, and then landing on the back of the big centipede like a wild bull.
The sizes of the two were totally disproportionate, but as soon as Princess Fukushima's jade feet landed on the heavy shell, invisible pressure came down. With a click, the centipede, which exerted too much force, almost broke itself off, and then struggled desperately because it really felt threatened.
Princess Fukushima ignored the centipede's struggle, because as a phantom appeared behind her, the centipede's struggle became increasingly weak.
This phantom was exactly the Jade Pure Dragon Girl Incense Image that Yan Xu helped Fukushima Ji condense, and it was also related to a major event that he was planning next.
After learning about the Night Parade of a Hundred Demons, Yan Xu ran to discuss it with Uncle Jiu and others.
The power level of these people is not high, but the realm is not low. In addition, with the thousand-year heritage of Maoshan, the things that Yan Xu couldn't understand were not so mysterious in their eyes. Therefore, he learned that the so-called Night Parade of a Hundred Ghosts was just a mixture of asking for a title and deification.
Ghosts such as weasels will ask people with special fates to keep their mouths shut, use the other party's luck to practice, and even pretend to be ghosts to attract worshippers.
The same is true for the Night Parade of a Hundred Demons. Once you become the leader of the Hundred Demons, you will extract a bit of luck from the Hundred Demons under you.
This is not just a matter of gathering a few to make a large one, because the Hundred Ghosts have special significance in the Japanese world and they also condense into a certain special status.
By spreading fear through the Night Parade of a Hundred Demons and gaining awe and worship, the illusory personality will gradually solidify, which is the process of going from mortal to god.
Kyoto is very special. Once the Lord of the Hundred Demons leads the hundreds of demons to successfully wander here at night, it is equivalent to dividing the country into two parts. That is, the day belongs to humans, and the night belongs to the demons. This can help share the fortune of a country, which is enough to turn the status from virtual to real, or even sublimate, and finally break the boundary and become a ghost or god.
This is the real reason behind the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons, which also attracted countless monsters to participate. The giant centipede under Princess Fukushima's feet is just one of them.
As the incense and fire image was revealed, the divine power gradually increased. Every step that Princess Fukushima's jade feet took was like exerting a force of a thousand pounds on the centipede. Just after the number of fifty, the densely packed insect legs on both sides of the centipede's body had been deeply inserted into the ground, like nails to the ground, and it was impossible to break free.
This is not the end. When Princess Fukushima walked towards the head of the centipede, the pressure she exerted with her feet was so great that even the back shell that could bounce off a poisonous dragon drill could not withstand the increasing pressure and began to crack densely, and even the white, tender and smooth flesh could be seen.
"I surrender, I surrender!" The giant centipede had already sensed that it would die when Princess Fukushima's jade feet landed on its head, so it dared not hold on any longer and quickly surrendered.
