The self-cultivation of the passer-by hero

"Reimu, I misjudged you! It's obviously a miko who actually started a mutation together with the monster!"

"Marisa, you idiot! I told you I don't have time to play with you now!"

In Gensokyo, barrage games are the best way to communicate, so Marisa, who cannot agree with Reimu, and Reimu, who is too lazy to explain to Marisa, start the first battle in the Lost Bamboo Forest at this critical juncture——

Fighting in the nest.

"Isn't it okay if you don't stop them?"

Takeru, who felt a stomach ache, asked Zi who looked leisurely and even a little happy next to him.

"If this continues, let alone solving the mutation, all our combat power will be consumed by our own people."

"It's okay, Reimu won't be that weak, and"

Zi pointed her eyes at the blond puppet master in front of her, who was looking at him eagerly.

"The opponent is not the type to simply let me join the battle."

"."

Alice said nothing, but used multiple small dolls to surround and lock onto the movements of Murasaki and Takeya.

It seems that if Zi insists on implementing the playful fighting method, the two of them will not be able to break through Alice's siege in a short time. Moreover, the battle between Reimu and Marisa above will not end in a short time.

Besides, Reimu is also a very strange person. If someone initiates a barrage game with her or gets into a fight for any reason, generally speaking, she will not use her full strength.

Obviously it would be more troublesome to get entangled, but Reimu always likes to fight with a slightly higher power than the opponent. Except for the last red mist mutation, there is almost no precedent for Reimu to activate a powerful spell card immediately. .

To put it simply, it is the type that focuses on retaining strength.

Such a character is not considered a weakness in ordinary battles. On the contrary, such a cautious character makes it easier for him to quietly gain the upper hand in battles with others.

However, if you are dealing with an old acquaintance like Marisa who already knows the details, this fighting method has no use except to waste time.

Marisa's strength is obviously not enough in front of the monster-level powerhouses in Gensokyo. Her strength is based on the barrage game based on the rules of spell cards.

Because of this, if Reimu had retained his strength to fight, the match between the two might have lasted until dawn.

"What two idiots who don't know how to adapt."

Sighing helplessly, Takeru couldn't think of any way to stop them, so he and Ziyi had to confront Alice here. To put it simply, they were in a daze until the battle was over.

If I have to say it, this feels quite boring.

Takeya looked away from the battle in the sky and looked around at the scene in the bamboo forest, probably looking for something interesting to kill time.

His eyes swept across the entrance of the bamboo forest, and suddenly a black shadow flashed past.

"Um?"

Wu Ye could be sure that it was not his imagination. The rustling of the bamboo leaves when the black shadow rushed into the bamboo forest was not fake.

"What's wrong, Takeya?"

Noticing Takeya's movements, Zi turned around and asked.

"No, it just seemed like there was something there just now."

Wu Ye pointed to the entrance of the bamboo forest and said.

"Over there, it's probably a rabbit or something."

Zi said in a casual tone:

"Most of the people gathered here are rabbit monsters. Although the group combat effectiveness is not bad, if they are scattered, they are actually not much different from ordinary humans."

"Rabbit"

"Why, are Takeru also interested?"

Zi's ​​eyes flashed with teasing light.

"Could it be that the girl's heart has awakened and she wants to care for the cute little rabbit?"

".How is that possible, idiot."

Wu Ye ignored Zi's joke with a dark face.

"Haha, if you are interested, then go and have a look."

Using an encouraging tone to encourage Takeya, Zi probably felt too idle and wanted to find something to do.

"Anyway, Wu can't help here. Let's go catch a rabbit. Maybe we can solve the midnight snack problem."

"Are you sure I caught it and not it caught me?"

Wu Ye said with both irony and laughter:

"Although I don't think I'm inferior to a rabbit in terms of ability, I'm 300% certain in terms of combat effectiveness. I will definitely be the one who gets beaten up in a one-on-one fight!"

"Ara, we're not asking Takeya to catch a monster, it's just an ordinary rabbit."

"reject."

Wu Ye hung his unmotivated dead fish eyes and said:

"By the way, why do you want me to do such a boring thing?"

"You have nothing to do anyway, right?"

".Although what you said makes sense, it is not the reason for me to commit suicide!"

"whispering sound."

Purple let out a dissatisfied hiss, and turned his head away childishly.

"It's boring."

"hehe."

I'm really sorry that I can't make fun of you!

Curling his lips, Wu Ye continued to stare at the dark bamboo forest.

Although he rejected the death plan suggested to him by Zi, it did not mean that he had lost interest in this lost bamboo forest.

He just didn't want to go in.

"But if you look at the entrance, it shouldn't be a big problem, right?"

With this thought, Wu Ye subconsciously walked towards the entrance of the bamboo forest. Zi Zi, who caught a glimpse of this scene from the corner of his eye, smiled imperceptibly. Such an expression made Alice opposite him feel an inexplicable chill in her back.

Rustling——

There was another obvious movement in the bamboo forest. Although it was difficult to distinguish the specific location due to the light, it was still no problem to find the general direction.

"Is it over there?"

Not far from the entrance to the bamboo forest, there is a straight road paved with stones. In this way, even if you encounter something, you can return to the original route as soon as possible, right?

The worries in his heart gradually disappeared, and Wu slowly took the first step, then the second and third steps, until he completely followed the "straight" path in his eyes to the place where the sound had just been made.

He stretched out his hand to push aside the dense bamboo leaves, and what he saw was not the grinning beast as imagined, but just an ordinary snow-white rabbit.

The moment it met Takeya's eyes, it seemed to be frightened and jumped deeper into the bamboo forest.

"call."

I don’t know whether he was disappointed with his overthinking or grateful for his safety. Takeru took a long breath, and then prepared to return the same way, but when he turned around, he completely shocked.

"how come."

The road in front of us is not as straight as when we entered the bamboo forest, but an endless spiral twisted by a bunch of crooked bamboos.

"The way back is gone?"

You obviously walked in in a straight line, why did everything change when you just turned around? !

Standing there at a loss, perhaps the only thing that remained unchanged within the range that Takeya could see now was probably the false full moon hidden in the gap in the sky covered with bamboo leaves.

After realizing that Wu Ye was completely lost in the bamboo forest, the two pairs of bright red eyes in the darkness slowly revealed a smile.
