Truth is everywhere within range

Ten minutes ago.

Inside the old sports warehouse.

A human skeleton model is lying on one side.

It's a weird thing called the Hungry Skull.

This weird past legend is formed from the resentment of soldiers who died on the battlefield, and it has the characteristics of monsters.

Later, this legend continued to evolve, and it became that as long as an ownerless ghost died in the wild, it would easily transform into a hungry skeleton.

As for why it is called the Hungry Man, it is probably due to the year of famine, when such weird things are more likely to appear.

Due to their untimely death, these resentful spirits harbor ill will towards all living beings and are therefore classified as evil spirits.

Legend has it that during the most chaotic years, the resentment of hundreds of people gathered together to form a huge hungry skeleton, which was more than ten meters high, creating a huge panic. It was not until the Spirit Exterminator took action that it was finally eliminated.

This has also become its most classic image.

Due to the progress of the times, wars have subsided, medical methods have been diversified, and economic levels have improved.

Nowadays, it is rare to see corpses that have actually starved to death on the roadside or died in the wilderness without being found in the country.

Therefore, the oddity of the Hungry Skeleton is a rarity.

The resentment contained in its body is not much, and it can only hold the weight of about ten people.

"not enough."

A deep voice echoed in the warehouse.

There was no one around, not even a wraith.

It wasn't the skeleton model who was speaking.

Of course there is only one answer.

The hungry skeleton looked up at the ceiling of the old sports warehouse.

Eye.

eyes eyes eyes eyes eyes.

The ceiling, as dark as the night sky, was densely covered with eyes.

These eyes are not stationary, but are constantly peeking around. Each eye seems to be an independent individual, and the gaze moves, making people's hair stand on end and their scalp numb just by looking at it.

This is the old sports warehouse, or Fusangshen.

"Now we can only wait for a while to avoid the limelight."

Fu Sangshen thought to himself.

It was established in the fourth year of Taisho and has a history of one hundred years.

In the beginning, in the chaotic and ambiguous era, it was just an ordinary warehouse.

Until later, a certain existence instantly awakened it in its ignorance.

The old sports warehouse has become a fusangshen.

It works conscientiously, hiding itself well and cleaning up.

Absorb all the surrounding resentful spirits, while reducing your own sense of existence to prevent yourself from being demolished during campus renovations.

The so-called Fusangshen is a weird thing that was born precisely because it had no sense of existence and was abandoned.

After going through hardships, we are finally here.

If he dared to do these things in Nagoya where Atsuta Shrine suppressed him, Fu Sangshen still had some confidence.

Unfortunately, its initial attempt to cause trouble failed.

After a hundred years of experience, Fusangshen will become a real monster. At that time, it will no longer need this warehouse as a support and can move on its own to find prey.

To speed up this process, it is easiest to create legends.

This knowledge also comes from the existence that awakens it.

So, after accumulating enough power, Fu Sangshen began to influence humans.

Weird stories in school, urban legends, and supernatural events.

These were successful.

In a short period of time, Fu Sangshen gained a large amount of yin energy.

It then used the resentful spirits it collected to create a hungry skeleton.

Originally, the weirdness of the Hungry Skeleton was to represent the legend of running around the school in the middle of the night and finally escaping into the old sports warehouse.

But unfortunately, they encountered Atsuta Shrine's large-scale investigation of strange incidents in Nagoya City.

The Hungry Skeleton had only appeared twice before being killed by the Soul Exterminator.

Fortunately, the Hungry Man Skeleton relied on the skeleton model, and with a little bit of luck and the special properties derived from Fusangshen, it was not completely eliminated by the spirit remover.

Fu Sangshen recovered the hungry skeleton and prepared to hide it temporarily.

Although it seems strange to say this, compared to the level of having no sense of existence, Fu Sangshen is not targeting anyone. Everyone here is weird, and they are not as weird as himself.

Between thoughts.

Fu Sangshen sensed someone approaching.

student? teacher?

No, no, it’s the stranger who is the spiritual slayer! ! ?

There is no doubt that two of them exude spiritual power and smell like spiritual masters.

How did they find this place?

Has the location of the Hungry Skeleton been exposed?

Fu Sangshen quickly thought of the answer.

He shouldn't be in a hurry to recall the Hungry Skeleton.

These spiritual masters may have found themselves by following the traces of the hungry skeletons!

Misstep.

Countless eyes turned quickly, thinking about countermeasures.

Soon, Fu Sangshen thought of it.

The Soul Exterminators are here to find the Hungry Skeleton, so they can just sacrifice it when the time comes.

I'm just an ordinary sports warehouse, I don't know what evil spirits there are.

Just pretend to be dead and that's it.

Very robust.

Fu Sangshen made up his mind and was about to control the hungry skeleton and let it deliver it.

From the window, something was thrown in.

What's this?

Something strange has come in.

Fu Sangshen's countless eyes focused on the little black thing at the same time.

boom--

The grenade exploded.

High temperature and flames instantly covered the entire warehouse.

All the glass was shattered in an instant, leaving glass shards all over the floor.

Since the warehouse was a wooden structure, the fire spread quickly.

? ? ?

What is this operation?

I'm just an ordinary sports warehouse, why do you do this to me?

Don't you spiritual masters want to investigate first before taking action?

What if there are still hostages here?

Flames enveloped the entire old sports warehouse, and the fragments caused by the grenade with spiritual power exploded in Fu Sangshen's body.

In the thick smoke, countless yin energy can be seen lingering.

Looking at all this, Qiao Qiao nodded.

"Sure enough, my judgment was correct."

At this moment, Fu Sangshen's spiritual consciousness, which was not yet fully mature, had collapsed due to the direct attack.

The resentful spirits it collected flew out.

For a moment, there was a terrifying feeling of demons dancing around.

But it's daytime now.

Under the sun, the resentful spirit with nowhere to hide screamed and immediately disappeared into nothing.

"this"

Under such a strong release of resentment, even ordinary people like Teacher Misawa can see the scene where a large number of resentful spirits dissipate.

For a moment, she felt the negative emotions of fear, sadness, and despair surge up uncontrollably.

"Please stand back."

Fujiwara Ayano asked Misawa-sensei to stay away from the scene while she took out the Kagura Bell.

bell--

The ringing echoed, making Teacher Misawa feel a little calmer.

At the same time, it also accelerated the disintegration process of the resentful spirits.

The combination of the blazing sports warehouse and the crisp and sweet Kagura bells gives people a sense of reality and fantasy intertwined.

Under the sun, everything settled.

Qiao Qiao was in no hurry to stop.

Instead, he sprayed the spiritual water again, lit the soul-soothing incense, and asked Masato Kotokui and Ayano Fujiwara to purify it three times.

Only then did I finally feel relieved.

"solved."

he said, walking into the ruins of the old sports warehouse.

Originally, Qiao Qiao thought this was just an ordinary fusangshen who had learned a few tricks from somewhere and started causing trouble.

But judging from the number of resentful spirits that just appeared, there must be fifty if not a hundred.

It is impossible for so many resentful spirits to have accumulated in recent times.

In other words, these lost gods have been awakening their spiritual consciousness for a long time?

But the history of this sports warehouse is only a little over a hundred years old. Is there any opportunity?

While thinking, Qiao Qiao, who was walking in the ruins, suddenly stepped on something hard.

Kneel down and sweep away the ashes.

Qiao Qiao saw it.

That's a scale.
