Chapter 417 Ibaraki Douji's Greeting
"Retreat from here!" Although he didn't want to contact these three, Benimaru Taro had to greet them because of his duty, and then he regretted it. He shouldn't have said too much.
"Run, it's Ibaraki Douji!" Oboro warned hurriedly when passing by Benimaru Taro.
Taro Benimaru's mind suddenly buzzed with confusion. The Moroboshi family would provide a lot of internal information from ninjas, scholars, Onmyojis, etc. It can be said that as long as you are willing to look, you can get a lot of useful knowledge. The matter of the hundred demons has been very serious during this period, so he naturally paid attention to it. Therefore, he knew very well that if it was really the Ibaraki Douji, then the people he brought were really going to die.
When Yan Xu learned about this, the news of the Zhuxing family's defeat had already been spread by someone with ulterior motives, and people all over the city were discussing it.
According to legend, the Moroboshi family gathered hundreds of elite samurai to attack Ibaraki Douji of Mt. Oe, but they were defeated and countless people died in the battle. As a result, people in the city were in panic, fearing that Ibaraki Douji would bring the monsters from Mt. Oe to attack.
Yan Xu didn't care much about the so-called Rashomon ghost, but was wondering how this matter spread. After all, the people of the Moroboshi family didn't have the habit of talking too much.
Obviously, this was interference from external forces, and judging from the speed of the spread, the other party was clearly well prepared, with the goal of spreading the rumors everywhere before the Moroboshi family could react.
In this case, Ibaraki Douji must have been specially brought here. After all, although Amano Castle is prosperous, it has not yet been deeply rooted in people's hearts because it has been around for too short a time. Now all eyes of humans, gods and ghosts are on Kyoto, and this place is still regarded as a remote and poor countryside.
Therefore, if he had not been specifically guided, the arrogant Ibaraki Douji would definitely not have come here, and he would not have left three people alive as a protest.
"Interesting." It was just interesting to Yan Xu now. With the power to overturn the table, the enemy's methods could only bring him some different fun.
However, what made Yan Xu unhappy was that not only did more than 200 people die in this battle, but Taro Benimaru also lost an arm, and Tsuchigumo and Mizuchi, who were the backup team for the unlucky trio, suffered incurable serious injuries.
"Bring these three here." Yan Xu waved his hand, and his attendants passed the order down.
The seriously injured cannot be disturbed and need a long period of rest, but Yan Xu wants to see them, so he has to carry them over even if they are dead. Therefore, six ninjas walked in silently, carried the three people in steadily, and then placed them on the open space.
The pungent smell of blood and herbs was not pleasant, but Yan Xu did not care about it. He just knew that the three people were seriously injured, but he did not expect it to be so tragic.
The weakest one, Benimaru Taro, is still in a coma. Not only did he lose an arm, but he also broke seven or eight ribs. If he hadn't brought pills that stimulated life potential and a large amount of white medicine, the massive blood loss alone would have killed him on the spot.
But this can only keep him going for a little longer. Without surgery or blood transfusion, he is still in a weak state that cannot stimulate his vital potential. Even if he is sent to the modern world for rescue, his chances of survival are not very high because his organs have begun to fail.
The earth spiders and leeches are better off, and it's only fortunate that they used the technique of demonization, which makes their vitality stronger and they won't die easily, but this doesn't mean that they can recover from the serious injuries.
Ibaraki Douji is not a kind-hearted person. He is proud and powerful, a real demon. If his strength was not so weak, he would be more suitable to be the demon king than Shuten Douji who was addicted to wine and sex. Therefore, he made it very clear that his target was Amano Castle, and the three survivors were just his way of saying hello.
Faced with three broken men, Yan Xu couldn't help but be thankful for his experiments with the strange essence, otherwise it would not be impossible to save them, but it would definitely not be that easy.
The strange essence is actually the escape route Yan Xu left for himself. Similar escape routes include the incense and the divine way, but the former is prepared for when the body is severely injured, while the latter is prepared for when the physical body is lost.
Who can guarantee that he is the protagonist and can always turn danger into safety and everything goes smoothly, not to mention that it is inevitable to be injured in battle. Ordinary injuries can be recovered, but what if a limb is mutilated? Ever since he was beaten up by an old beggar when he first arrived in the world of the late Qing Dynasty and almost doubted his life, Yan Xu gave up his naive ideas and had the idea of preparing several backup plans for himself.
Therefore, although Yan Xu was afraid of the weirdness, he had no intention of stopping his research. Between becoming disabled and taking risks, he obviously chose the latter.
Of course, it’s better not to use it if you can. After all, once you are infected with weirdness, it is almost impossible to get rid of it.
However, Yan Xu did not have any psychological burden when using it on his subordinates, especially after collecting a considerable amount of data from the World of Gods.
First, he fed the three people some herbal liquid to relieve their injuries. Yan Xu took a cup of Hongwantaro's blood, mixed it with a little bit of the strange essence, tried to dilute it, and then took a little blood and injected it into the heart.
It has to be said that weirdness does have advantages that are hard to give up. Even such a small amount of weird essence still awakened the flesh and blood of Benimaru Taro. He could even hear the sound of muscles moving against broken bones.
Unfortunately, the amount was too small. After repairing the injury, the flesh and blood fell into a deep sleep again and was not enough to regenerate an arm.
This was also within Yan Xu's expectations, because if he really regenerated an arm, it would be hard to say whether this arm belonged to Benimaru Taro. It might even develop an independent consciousness, because he was too weak to control the highly activated flesh and blood.
The dosage of earth spiders and leeches can be increased. Not only their bodies have been tempered, but their spirits and wills are also extremely strong. It only takes some time for them to adapt before they can control the activated flesh and blood and transform it into their own strength.
After being injected with the strange essence, the activated flesh and blood not only repaired the injuries of the two people, but also promoted the evolution of their bodies.
The ninja's secret techniques and the technique of demonization are essentially to force themselves to evolve towards a certain mode. After feeling this, the strangely activated flesh and blood instinctively began to accelerate the evolution speed, allowing the two to leap forward in strength.
"I've never felt so powerful." Tsuchigumo is a tool-based ninja. He has close combat capabilities, but relies more on puppets and mechanisms. Now, for the first time, he feels the power of his physical body, even surpassing the mechanisms.
"New technologies and materials will be available to you in the future. The puppets you create have great potential. If you continue to work hard in this area, you will achieve good success." Yan Xu has no shortage of powerful subordinates, but practical scientists like Tsuchigumo are rare. Even though he is a self-taught scientist, he still brings a lot of surprises, so naturally he hopes that he will keep up the good work.
The earth spider was very smart and immediately understood what his master meant. Moreover, he was just speaking on impulse. In comparison, he was more interested in the combination of gears and levers, so he nodded immediately.
The leech's level of evolution is higher because it relies on its body for food, so it has acquired the abilities of software transformation and blood control.
The soft body modification makes the leech's body as soft as boneless, literally, and it can secrete a kind of mucus to help it pass through narrow places and reduce some physical damage.
At the same time, her soft body makes her almost without any vital points, and she has a strong self-healing ability. Theoretically, even if she is cut in half, she can still stick her body back together.
Blood control allows Leech to draw blood from a distance. Although there is a distance limit, it is still enough to make her a melee killer.
Regardless of whether you are a man or a woman, if you dare to engage in close combat with her, you will risk hematuria and dysmenorrhea.
