141. Dark Cloud Sword, with the most loyal maid
Chen Chen looked up and glanced around, finally finding that there was a back door not far from the side of the two girls, which was already half open. It seemed that Zhao's father and son had escaped from there.
Just as I was about to go over, I suddenly heard a faint cry.
Turning her head, she saw that the girl in front had finally collapsed, hit by a sturdy man on her wrist, and her long sword fell to the ground with a crisp impact.
Seeing the opponent's long sword fall to the ground, several strong men also realized that the opponent had lost his greatest reliance. They immediately surrounded him from several directions, with fists and feet bringing fierce winds. If this were to hit two delicate girls, it would likely be a fatal blow.
Seeing the terror and despair in the eyes of the two girls, Chen Chen's eyebrows rose, and his spiritual power burst out rapidly.
The positive and negative ions around him quickly gathered, forming flashes of lightning around his body, the electric current constantly swirling around his body, forming a human magnetic field, which was extremely powerful in the hall.
This sudden movement also attracted the attention of everyone present.
Several burly men turned their heads in shock, but it was too late. Three steel balls of the same size appeared between Chen Chen's fingers, and at the same time, the iris scanner also displayed various parameters. With a light flick of his fingertips, three virtual shadows flashed by and disappeared without a trace.
At this moment, the bodies of the three strong men had already been torn to pieces by the huge kinetic energy, with blood splashing out and staining the wall behind them red.
They might be lucky to be among the first few targets of a human electromagnetic cannon.
The lightning flashed away, and Chen Chen felt a dizziness in his mind, which was the aftermath of overusing his spiritual power.
Fortunately, this feeling quickly disappeared. He hastily rubbed his forehead and stood still, waiting for a slow recovery. When he wanted to go out and chase again, he heard a cry from behind: "Dark Cloud Thunder God! Dark Cloud Thunder God!"
Chen Chen looked back in confusion, only to see the abbot stumbling in and kowtowing before him: "The Dark Cloud Thunder God has come to save us! I've spent my whole life making offerings, and finally, I get to see the Dark Cloud Thunder God..."
He fell to his knees and was seriously injured. The two girls rushed up, one on the left and one on the right, to support him: "Grandpa... how are you?"
"Cough, cough..." The abbot spat out another mouthful of blood, but still recklessly stretched out his hand to grab the two girls: "Xiang Cheng, Xiang Xue, didn't you see? That's An Yun Lei Shen, our guardian deity! Quickly kneel and pay your respects..."
Upon hearing this, the two girls also recalled that shocking scene earlier and hastily knelt down on either side of Chen Chen: "Dark Cloud Thunder God, we are your most loyal maidens."
This strange scene in front of him made Chen Chen unsure of what to do next. Looking at the tracker again, he found that Zhao's father and son had already escaped far away, and for now, he could only reluctantly give up on pursuing them.
Anyway, now even their own organization is hunting them down, I suppose they can't escape anywhere. Let's see if we can help these villagers first.
Putting aside the pursuit, attention returned to the few people in front of them. They were kowtowing on the ground, repeatedly claiming that they were the Dark Cloud Thunder God. It seemed that when they activated the electromagnetic cannon earlier, it was mistaken for thunder and lightning.
These simple-minded people didn't think that much, seeing lightning bursting around their bodies, they took themselves as the gods they worshipped, which is also a misunderstanding.
But seeing the other's sincere eyes and weak body, Chen Chen didn't want to expose them either, so he left a little thought in their hearts.
Seeing Chen Chen looking at these few people, the two girls hurriedly kowtowed and opened their mouths to plead: "God Master, please save our grandfather, he's heavily injured."
"Grandpa's wound... Grandpa knows it himself..." The abbot smiled bitterly and shook his head gently: "The village is destroyed... Fortunately, the Dark Cloud Thunder God has arrived, this is your fate, and also your future hope."
Hearing this, Chen Chen could only shake his head helplessly.
Japan is an island nation, plagued by natural disasters, and all its citizens have a deep sense of crisis, so they often like to hang the word "fate" on their lips, as if every person has been carrying many things since birth, and this idea also creates the discipline and obedience that are deeply ingrained in their hearts.
"Your Excellency..." Just as Chen Chen was about to leave, the chief priest spoke up again: "Our village's first ancestor was a member of the imperial guard, protecting His Majesty the Emperor. To this day, we still take pride in that. Your arrival here is also the will of heaven, so I implore you to take in these two shrine maidens. This is their only hope."
"Take them in?" Chen Chen slightly furrowed his brow and cast his gaze towards the two girls.
"They... are the orphan girls I've raised since they were young..." The chief priest looked at them with kindness: "I have also taught them to become the most loyal attendants of the shrine, they are the miko recognized by Kokuryuu no Ken, please do not despise them."
"Dark Cloud Sword?" Chen Chen picked up the long sword that had fallen to the ground, waving it a few times: "Dark Cloud, is it Thunder Cloud? So it's called Dark Cloud Thunder God, this sword is quite unusual..."
He had already seen that the Dark Cloud Sword was forged from a peculiar metal, capable of emitting minute quantum forces, presumably allowing the swordswoman to drive these minute quantum forces into explosive energy waves.
His gaze turned to the girl who was using magic, she must have had some spiritual power too, that's why she could do it.
"The Dark Cloud Sword was used by the first generation of ancestors and later became a sacred object of the village...". Seeing Chen Chen seemed to have some interest in the Dark Cloud Sword, the abbot hastily explained: "Take them and the Dark Cloud Sword with you, go find the master of the Dark Cloud Hall, he will help you out of old favors..."
As he spoke, his breathing became more and more urgent, and large mouthfuls of fresh blood flowed down from the corners of his mouth.
"Grandpa..." Seeing this, the two girls burst into sorrowful cries, but the abbot was already unable to respond to them.
Chen Chen quietly watched this scene, without disturbing them. At this moment, he could only helplessly let out a soft sigh.
"Xiang Xue, we can't keep crying like this!" After a while, the girl with tear stains under her eyes suddenly woke up, wiped away her tears and stared firmly at another girl: "We must find out who the murderer is and kill them to avenge our grandfather!"
"Revenge?" Another girl lifted her head, tearfully looking at the other: "But... can we avenge ourselves?"
"With the master's presence, it is possible!" The young girl pulled her sister along and bowed to Chen Chen: "Master God, please accept us, we will be your most loyal maidservants, as long as we can avenge our grandfather, we are willing to dedicate everything to you!"
"Everything..." As he gazed at the devotion of the two beautiful girls, a hint of evil smile floated up on Chen Chen's mouth.
