Chapter 3: Ghost Transformation
"Ah ah ah ah ah!!"
When the timid girl saw the wolf drawing his knife, Minako immediately screamed and fell to the ground with her butt facing the wolf, holding the plate above her head and crying in fear.
“Woo woo woo, it’s a knife!”
Minako's terrified scream really made Wolf feel upset. He waited for a while and found that the light screen in front of him did not look like an illusion attack like that of Madame Butterfly or Kirigakure. Wolf put the wedge pill back into the sheath and threw it at Minako's feet.
"I have no ill intentions."
Seeing that the wolf had no intention of killing her, Minako slowly turned her head, glanced at Kugimaru and then at the calm wolf, and tremblingly tried to ask the wolf.
"Really?"
He nodded. The wolf really couldn't deal with a child. Although Jiulang was young, his behavior was very mature, unlike ordinary children.
Seeing the wolf's look, Minako breathed a sigh of relief exaggeratedly. The curious nature of a child made her point at Kugimaru beside her and look at the wolf with anticipation.
"Can I see this?!"
Wolf was busy studying the light screen in front of him and casually waved his hand to show his agreement. Minako's eyes suddenly lit up. In this era when the sword-banning order had been issued for a long time, swords were not something that ordinary people could see.
Ignoring Minako, Wolf looked at the light screen in front of him and carefully read the three columns above the light screen.
Equipment, items held, skills.
Below the light curtain, on the far left is a long red strip with three cherry-colored balls on it, in the middle are the physical strength and attack power which are ten and one respectively, and next to it is a long black strip with a number showing one and below it is written that one hundred experience points are needed to obtain the skill point.
The wolf couldn't understand any of these things, but the things on the far right looked very familiar to him - paper figures and copper coins.
Paper figures are the product of the concrete manifestation of karma in the world. Whenever Wolf uses ninja tools and secret techniques that are difficult for ordinary people to do, an indefinite number of paper figures will be consumed.
Copper coins are obviously used to purchase items. Wolves sometimes use copper coins to trade items with merchants scattered around Ashina.
The space on the equipment page above where the prosthetic ninja equipment was written was empty at this time. After all, Wolf's broken arm had grown back and no one knew where the prosthetic ninja equipment had gone.
He looked at the style and moves curiously.
How can I check this...
As soon as this thought arose in the wolf's mind, a stream of information flowed into the wolf's brain, which was exactly the method of viewing this light curtain.
As his mind focused on it, the light curtain changed accordingly, and a series of familiar secret skills names appeared in front of the wolf. Without exception, they were all moves that the wolf had seen and learned before.
Special skills - Flying Floating Boat, Eagle Slash, Whirlwind Slash, Senfeng Kick, Ichimonji-Two Connects, Special skills - Ashina Cross Slash, Giant Ninja Thrust, etc.
And not only these, but also the moves that Wolf has never seen before are included, such as the secret teaching-Issin, the secret teaching-Sakura Dance, and other secret teachings that he has never heard of.
He was a little surprised. He didn't expect that this light curtain was so powerful and knew all his moves. Curiously, he chose the secret technique that he had never seen before - Sakura Dance. However, the light curtain changed again, and a small light curtain with black background and white letters appeared in front of the wolf.
Insufficient attack power.
Not enough attack power?
Looking at the light curtain below, there is only a little attack power at this time.
What do you mean? So how do you increase your attack power?
With a lot of questions in mind, Wolf randomly picked a currently available flying boat and installed it on his style's moves.
He focused his attention on the object he was holding, and then the light screen changed. The feeling of mind control made the wolf feel a little novel.
He only saw that the items he had were pitifully few compared to the style and moves of his school. Apart from a gourd and five spirit-summoning moves, there was nothing else.
It is a happy thing to hold these four descended spirits in items, because the powerful strength bonus brought by the descended spirits is undoubtedly huge.
The spirit descending is the headless dead soul. Consuming paper figures to stimulate the dead soul can bring five different spirits down on the wolf. These five spirits are:
Heng Jiang, Ha Jiang, Gang Qu, Yue Yin, Yaksha Lu.
Each type of summoning spirit has a different function, and it will play a good role when used when the wolf is fighting. But now there is no paper man, and the wolf cannot use the summoning spirit.
The gourd is an elixir that wolves use to recover from injuries. It was developed by Miss Yongzhen, and he gave her the gourd seeds scattered throughout Ashina to increase the number of times the gourd can be used.
But now the gourd's usage count has returned to one, which makes the wolf feel overwhelmed. Collecting gourds is not an easy task...
There was nothing interesting about the items he was holding, so Wolf summoned the light curtain of the skill interface. As he expected, it was all made up of the secret books he had obtained before, which required skill points to unlock.
Looking at the first Ninja Secret Book, the technical skills that he was familiar with formed a tree diagram, and the starting point of the tree diagram was the skill that Wolf used most frequently - seeing through.
The wolf was a little unhappy. Why did he have to spend skill points to unlock the moves he had learned?
Without any skill points, Wolf had no intention of continuing his research. He waved his hand and dispersed the light curtain.
He sat cross-legged and watched Minako waving the wagyu pill around randomly, humming to herself to make sound effects.
It seems that outsiders cannot see the light curtain in front of me.
After all, children get tired after playing for a while, and children's interest comes and goes quickly. At this time, Kushimaru no longer attracts her.
He struggled to put the knife, which was not much shorter than him, back into the scabbard, then trotted over and handed the knife to the wolf.
"Mr. Wolf, I'll give you my knife back."
After taking the wedge pill, Wolf thought secretly in his heart.
It seems that he took the Kushimaru out of his possession subconsciously in a state of emergency.
But out of nowhere, a cold breath suddenly covered the wolf's body, and even the warm campfire could not dispel the chill.
The ninja's instinct immediately alerted him, and he drew his sword instantly. He held the sword in both hands and held it across his body, instinctively defending himself.
what happened!
This feeling is just like when facing attacks from those rare and powerful beings that they cannot resist at all!
I saw a flashing red light above my head from the corner of my eye. I looked up and saw the blood-red word "danger" jumping above my head.
what is this?
I don’t know what this “danger” means, but it’s definitely not a good thing if it makes the wolf feel palpitations instinctively!
However, Minako did not notice anything unusual and was confused by the wolf's behavior.
Just then there was a knock on the door, followed by a frivolous voice.
"Hello~ Is anyone there? There's a poor passerby who wants to stay overnight~"
As the voice fell, a cold aura appeared around the wolf again, and the flashing word "danger" above its head appeared almost normally.
With a serious look, he quickly stopped Minako who wanted to go over to talk to him, and stood behind the door with a serious expression holding the Kushimaru, hiding behind the door, and tilted his head to put his ear to the door.
Sure enough, even though it was raining heavily outside, the heartbeat of the "person" outside the door did not show any signs of weakness or disorder.
It can't be an ordinary person...
I was about to turn around and tell Minako to hide in the inner room, but her terrified eyes trembled as she looked towards the window.
Following the direction of her gaze, I saw a pale figure at the window, climbing up the window and entering the house. He looked at the frightened Minako and the solemn-looking Wolf, and smiled happily.
"Two little guys~ I love the smell of children... the most~"
The wolf therefore learned one thing tonight.
In the Taisho era, demons transformed into humans and evil spirits roamed the world!
