Chapter 110

Ren Amamiya, who left the inn, quickly rushed towards the back mountain.

Hiding himself in the surrounding environment, like a chameleon's illusion, this is a means that only a Sequence 7 Magician can possess.

Using the Source Castle to temporarily bestow this power upon himself, thereby allowing him to temporarily use this power.

Has the mastered power improved?

The adaptability between the Source Castle and me has improved a lot.

This adaptability affects his authority and control over the Source Castle.

As long as this adaptability can be improved significantly, the bestowed power obtained from the Source Castle will also be stronger, even crossing more sequences.

This adaptability requires time to grind.

It's already quite fast to reach this level in less than two weeks since obtaining the source quality.

Ren Amamiya didn't care much about this point either.

Just slowly use time to integrate, the current progress is already very fast.

After just a while, Ren Amamiya had already arrived near the back mountain.

He observed the nearby guard post.

The glass of the guard post was already stained with a piece of blood red.

The surveillance outside the guard post had been shot with a hole by a bullet, obviously unusable.

The advancement force was very large, almost using the fastest advancement.

Decisively attacking the drug dealers in the guard post.

Almost without looking, he knew it must be a headshot.

The force of the attack on the drug dealers was also unexpectedly strong.

But this made Ren Amamiya a bit confused.

Is it because their identities gave the big shots in the Metropolitan Police Department too much stimulation?

Temporarily, it seems that this is the only explanation.

Ren Amamiya shook his head, regardless of these things, he also entered the back mountain directly.

After entering the back mountain full of trees, those tall trees blocked a lot of light.

And a place like the back mountain is very suitable for placing various traps.

The road on the ground seemed too dangerous.

Ren Amamiya looked at the branches blocking the light above.

After a burst of fire, he jumped onto the branches accompanied by flames.

A ball of fire was constantly jumping on the branches at the high point of the trees.

This allowed Ren Amamiya to catch up with the progress of the special force in front at almost the fastest speed.

"Sniff sniff~"

Ren Amamiya, who stopped on a branch above, looked at the special force moving carefully, and sniffed the surrounding breath with his nose.

So smelly!

An unexpectedly pungent smell almost rushed to his face.

It's hard to describe what kind of smell this is.

It's like garbage piled up in the sun for several months, mixed with the smell of sewer water.

Not only smelly, but also makes people feel nauseous.

He skillfully took out a mask from the Source Castle and put it on.

Hmm, it's a bit better than just now.

Looking down, the group of people below had already put on gas masks.

...Next time, put more gas masks in the Source Castle.

Invisible gray fog radiated from Ren Amamiya's body, completely isolating the surrounding air.

At the same time, Ren Amamiya placed the diary on his lap and began to write today's diary.

[The special force of the Metropolitan Police Department is advancing much faster than imagined.]

[When breaking through the guard post, they were not polite at all, all were killed with one shot, and they also directly and quickly destroyed the surveillance.]

[Could it be that the stimulation given to the Metropolitan Police Department by the young ladies I mentioned was too great?]

[Then who is it?]

[Hmm~ the probability should be Fujiwara and Saginomiya.]

"Fujiwara is the great-granddaughter of a former Prime Minister. Her father seems to be a powerful politician currently in office, and her mother is apparently a well-known diplomat."

"Her status as a 'second-generation official' is the most elite among the Sigong stories."

"If the Metropolitan Police Department is worried about something happening to her, it’s inevitable that they would be a bit nervous."

"And then there is Saginomiya."

"The existence of evil spirits has convinced me that there are still many filthy things throughout this island nation that require special individuals to handle."

"Saginomiya, the strongest shrine maiden of the modern era—there are far too many problems she is capable of handling."

"However, if it is Saginomiya, it seems that some of the big shots above the Metropolitan Police Department have been putting pressure on them."

"Tsk~ I was wondering why the Metropolitan Police Department's operation this time was so fast."

"Some of those big shots at the top are still quite protective of their own lives."

"They know too much; compared to money, their lives are much more important."

"Sure enough, compared to money and power, mastering mysterious forces is even more important."

"But the more one craves, the less one is able to obtain."

"On the contrary, take Shijiko Sanzenin; she clearly asks for nothing, yet she has obtained what countless people hope to get."

"The King Jade was found during a game of hide-and-seek."

"The power of the Royal Clan returned to the Royal Court because the boy who protected her prayed for power."

"It was also because the power of the Royal Clan returned to the Royal Court that she was able to enter the Royal Court with the King Jade and thereby make a wish to the power of the Royal Clan."

"Looking at it this way, Shijiko Sanzenin is truly someone favored by fate."

"Hm? Oh, it’s starting, it’s starting."

"Biu."

The soft sound of a pistol fired the opening act of this sweep against the drug dealers.

A lone drug dealer fell to the ground and couldn't get up at this very sound.

Life, like the cheapest trash, was discarded on the ground, beginning to rot bit by bit.

The withering of a trash-like life would never attract anyone's attention.

Even for Ren Amamiya, this was the case.

An eye condensed from mist emerged nearby.

Through that eye, Ren Amamiya could see the body that had lost its life more clearly.

The entire face looked sallow and gaunt, the muscles on the face were sunken, and one could see the entire eye socket had caved in.

These are the obvious characteristics of a drug addict.

It could be said that this person was no longer a human, but merely a drug-worm craving immersion in their addiction.

The death of such a drug-worm could not elicit any sympathy.

It was deserved.

The team continued to advance, while Ren Amamiya’s location shifted constantly along the tree branches above via Flame Jump.

Ren Amamiya kept himself hidden behind the tree branches, quietly acting as a bystander.

After a few drug-worms were dealt with, the special forces entered a localized temporary residential area.

From his high position on the tree branch, Ren Amamiya could see the state of the entire living area.

Many of the houses were built from temporary materials.

However, looking at the worn-out appearance of those simple houses, they must have existed for quite a long time.

This scale is really not small at all.

A rough estimate is that there are twenty or thirty people living here, or perhaps even more.
