Chapter 49 The variables must be corrected immediately.
Perhaps because of yesterday's "bed warming" incident, neither Qian Huibao nor Zhang Wanxin came to the bow of the boat to speak to him.
When Dong Guanfei tested the gun yesterday, he discovered that the Azure Dragon Spiritual Node in the Sea of Souls was particularly active when he was on the Five Lakes, and its brightness was twice as strong.
This expanded his perception range by about 30%, reaching nearly 21 meters in normal conditions and nearly 45 meters after activating his synesthetic talent.
An hour later, the fog became increasingly thick, and ordinary people could only see about 70 or 80 meters away at most.
The Five Lakes are located in the Jiangdong Delta Plain, where the surrounding terrain is low and flat. At night, a stable atmospheric stratification is easily formed, which is not conducive to the diffusion of water vapor and easily promotes the formation and maintenance of fog.
This is the season when the fog is most frequent and densest in the Five Lakes region.
The Fairy's speed dropped to less than thirty miles per hour, but it still occasionally passed other sailboats.
The thick fog reminded Dong Guanfei of the mysterious ghost realm activated by the Yin-Yang Master, so he quickly walked into the middle cabin and found Wang Anyue drinking tea with Qian Guanghua, Zhang Fubao, Qian Huibao, and Zhang Wanxin.
Zhang Fubao originally didn't plan to go to Xicheng, but then suddenly changed his mind.
"Captain Wang, there's a heavy fog today. If the Japanese Onmyoji launch an attack, they might also create a ghostly fog."
"I will issue a warning when the time comes. You need to protect the others and the ship. I will handle the enemy."
Wang Anyue nodded solemnly, "Okay."
The ghostly fog can distort people's minds, and there may even be evil spirits lurking within it.
If the guards are not protected by the protective aura, they may become disoriented and turn their guns on their own people.
As the captain of the guard, Wang Anyue had two mountain amulets. One of them was destroyed by Akio Itano, leaving him with the other.
After activating the Mountain Amulet, it can cover an area of about twelve meters in radius and last for several minutes to tens of minutes, depending on the intensity of the attack.
A radius of twelve meters is enough to cover the entire ship.
The smaller the coverage area, the lower the mana consumption.
Under the protection of the protective aura, only Wang Anyue himself would be unaffected; everyone else would be.
Therefore, Dong Guanfei meant that Wang Anyue should shrink the protective circle as much as possible to maintain the protective aura circle for a longer period of time, and not to trap himself in it as well.
In fact, the Qi Circle can also help Dong Guanfei block attacks from one direction.
With the feat of swiftly killing a beginner-level Onmyoji in the East as a precedent, Wang Anyue and the others had no doubt about Dong Guanfei's combat strength under the fog.
After Dong Guanfei left the middle cabin, Wang Anyue immediately instructed Qian Tianming to make corresponding contingency arrangements.
Zhang Fubao murmured, "Mr. Li's aura concealment technique is very strong... Today, his aura appears to have reached the peak of the early stage of the Transcendent Realm."
Zhang Wanxin and Qian Guanghua both nodded slightly.
It's inevitable that Dong Guanfei was hiding his true strength; otherwise, he wouldn't have achieved those results. The only question is how strong he really is.
Qian Huibao thought so too, but she didn't show it; she just kept it to herself.
"This guy's been acting suspiciously, and he's so greedy. Could he owe a huge sum of money?"
Nearly three hours later, a homing pigeon, noticeably larger than an ordinary pigeon, took flight from a speedboat that had just been overtaken by the "Fairy".
Five or six minutes later, the carrier pigeon landed on one of the three speedboats on the riverbank at a bend in the river.
After reading the message, Liu Fulong immediately issued an order: "Notify the two Grand Marshals."
Soon, both Sanada Ken'ei and Sumitomo Shingen saw two flashes of light, one long and one short.
This means the enemy will arrive in no more than fifteen minutes.
Sanada Ken'ei sensed the wind direction; it wasn't strong, but he could easily jump 40 or 50 meters.
Then, he raised the long sword "Wind Slash" with both hands, sheathed, with the tip of the blade about three centimeters from his brow. He closed his eyes slightly and carefully sensed the restlessness of the demonic sword.
A surge of eager fighting spirit welled up within him.
"Old friend, a peerless genius of the Xia people is about to fall at our hands..."
"The lowly Xia people deserve to have their nation destroyed and their race exterminated, and to be slaves forever."
This variable must be corrected immediately.
"You... can't wait any longer, can you...?"
About ten minutes later, Sumitomo Shingen began chanting a low, difficult incantation, while the other Japanese soldiers began slitting the throats of the captured Xia tribe men one by one, spraying their blood onto the altar and the nine-tailed fox monster statue on it.
In fact, twenty-four Xia men had already fallen in the reed marshes.
What they got in return was a bloodstain on the forehead of every Japanese soldier and member of the Fulong Gang, as well as two paper figures with bloodshot eyes.
In less than two minutes, the remaining twelve Xia men's corpses were dumped like trash on the wet ground below the altar.
Sumitomo Shingen's voice grew increasingly hoarse as he chanted the incantation, sounding as if he were straining to speak.
The nine-tailed fox monster statue held a palm-sized bronze mirror in its mouth, continuously spewing out grayish-white smoke, as if it were connected to another world.
In less than a minute, the mist merged into the original fog, covering an area of about forty meters around Yomo Shingen, with the edge only about thirty meters from the center of the river.
This was deliberately controlled by him. Just as the painted boat reached the bend in the river, the fog would suddenly rise, covering an area of about 150 meters in just two or three moments.
In reality, once the pleasure boat entered Sumitomo Shingen's sight, it could not escape the fate of being shrouded in a misty, ghostly realm.
Even Sanada Ken'ei and the members of the Fulong Gang will be wiped out at that time.
Of all these people, only Sanada Ken'ei didn't have a red dot between his eyebrows, because he didn't need one.
The ghostly mist couldn't harm him at all, nor could it affect his five senses, let alone his perception.
About two minutes later, a pleasure boat bearing the Zhang family's blue phoenix flag and the Qian family's yellow qilin flag came into view of Irato Shingen, and quickly went from blurry to clear.
The bow of the boat was empty except for a young man sitting alone, drinking, looking quite dashing.
In less than a minute, the pleasure boat will reach the bend in the river.
However, just as Sumitomo Shingen was about to make a move, the young man shouted, "Enemy! Danger!"
Immediately afterwards, the young man grabbed a rifle, stood up, and looked in his direction. His sharp, piercing gaze was like two bolts of lightning, causing Sumitomo Shingen to feel a chill in his heart and instinctively shrink back slightly. He then hurriedly chanted an incantation.
next moment.
The fog suddenly thickened, instantly enveloping the entire pleasure boat and continuing to spread.
But the pleasure boat lit up with a yellow light just in time, enveloping most of the ship and separating it from the fog.
At this moment, the pleasure boat has just reached the bend, and can see the river channel beyond the bend.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
The young man raised his gun and fired.
Sumitomo Shingen didn't hear the machine gun fire, but he could vaguely hear noises and shouts coming from the direction of the Fulong Gang members.
It seems that both machine gunners were shot dead.
Fortunately, a figure resembling a large bird took flight from the small island across the river.
The figure was enveloped in deep blue aura, which seemed to have completely merged into the wind, forming an arrowhead shape.
It looked as if Sanada Takehide was piloting a divine arrow, shooting out and instantly soaring to a height of more than ten meters above the river.
