Chapter 56: Ming Shen Eternal 32

As expected, Ray didn't understand the hidden meaning of the words.

Fortunately, Dazai Osamu did not expect her to suddenly come to her senses. It was enough as long as Raiden could understand the superficial meaning.

survive.

Must survive.

This is not only Gojo Satoru's request, but also Edogawa Ranpo's expectation, and it is also the wish of those who silently gather around her without saying a word.

Time was running out, and every second counted. Dazai insisted on doing so, and Lei Denying stopped trying to persuade him, and said seriously: "Then let Nakahara Chuuya protect you."

Dazai Osamu responded with a smile.

However, he knew better than anyone that once Nakahara Chuuya released the filth with all his strength, he would lose his mind. By then, let alone protecting him, it would be a good thing if Chuuya didn't treat him as an enemy and beat him together.

The Rai movie doesn't seem to be clear about this, and Dazai Osamu didn't explain it either.

He pulled two headsets out of his pocket and tossed one to Ray.

After Lei put it on, Ango Sakaguchi's voice came from the earphones immediately: "Can you hear me?"

Lei Dianying said "hmm", indicating that the communication was good.

"The surrounding people are evacuating. We are monitoring Lovecraft's movements in real time to slow down his landing, but the shells have limited damage to him. The drone has observed that his wounds are healing rapidly. I'm afraid he can only be killed in one blow."

Sakaguchi Ango spoke very quickly, but when he said "killed with one blow", his pronunciation became heavier and his speech slowed down, revealing a sense of hesitation.

Faced with such a huge and vigorous being, can anyone really deliver a fatal blow?

Is this really something that can be accomplished by mortal power?

But they had no choice but to try.

And this heavy burden fell on the shoulders of Rai Denying, who once split a mountain with one sword.

Lei Dianying's tone was calm and reassuring: "I understand."

But before that, she had to go somewhere first.

"Give me a minute," Lei Dianying said, "I will arrive at the scene in a minute. I know this is not an easy task, please ask Dazai and Chuuya to go ahead and support the Special Agent Department."

Dazai Osamu and Sakaguchi Ango were both stunned, and then Dazai Osamu understood what she was thinking.

"Are you sure? There's no one there now."

"I have my own plans."

Raiden showed the ability to fly for the second time. Her figure seemed to turn into lightning, and she went to the place mentioned by Dazai Osamu at a speed invisible to the naked eye - which was also the place where Gojo Satoru fought with the mysterious man.

The wide, smooth concrete floor was shattered into pieces, a large hole was blown out of the wall, some bricks were shaking and about to fall, and the broken stones lay in disorder on the ground like splashing water.

The brief confrontation was loud but not violent.

The man's only mission was to rescue Sigma and Gogol, so he just fought briefly and then left the scene.

Otherwise, this place would have been razed to the ground, without even a ruin left.

Lei Dianying lowered his eyes and stared at the ground.

Gojo Satoru said that the man was not a user of space-related abilities, so he must have left traces when he left.

Hoshino Nozomi: Detection and identification.

The dice shows: 23 - Success.

Hoshinobi: Carry out combustion.

【Please select the burning points. 】

[Do you want to burn 22 points of luck to change the appraisal result to a great success? ]

[Current character card luck value: 23.]

【Detection and identification, great success.】

The green lights that looked like smoke and mist were particularly eye-catching among the large gray silhouettes. Xingye Wang, floating high in the sky, determined their position.

System: [Do you want to tell the Special Agents Division, or Gojo Satoru? ]

"No."

That person's strength is not inferior to Gojo Satoru, and the Special Agent Department cannot deal with him. Gojo Satoru is dealing with the noose and no one knows when he will return. Even if he is free, that person can escape from him once and can escape a second time.

Besides, he probably knew what Fyodor was thinking.

As an intelligence dealer, what he wants most is what he least wants to lose.

System: [Host, one minute is almost up. ]

At the same time, Sakaguchi Ango's voice rang in his earphones.

Hoshino Nozomi agreed, and the moment he turned around, the naginata in his hand had been replaced with a katana.

East, Pacific.

"Bang——"

The dark red gravity bullet flew past and cut off four or five tentacles in an instant. Nakahara Chuuya succeeded in his attack and did not linger in the fight. He leaped and landed back in the helicopter not far away.

"Hold on!"

Gravity instantly covered the fuselage, and the helicopter sank suddenly and then drifted to the left, avoiding several tentacles that were heading straight for its face.

Nakahara Chuuya held the door frame tightly: "Dazai, do you remember what you did last time?"

In the last battle, Dazai Osamu threw explosives into Lovecraft, and with the help of Chuuya Nakahara's attack, he forced Lovecraft back.

But obviously, this approach doesn't work.

They need a more radical approach.

Nakahara Chuuya said, "Has he become bigger?"

Dazai Osamu answered simply: "It has indeed grown bigger, and a lot bigger."

Today's Lovecraft is not only more than ten meters taller than last time, but the number of tentacles, regeneration ability, speed... are also many times higher than last time.

Thick black fog enveloped him, dyeing the sky and the ocean pure black. The wreckage of machinery floated on the sea, gradually surging towards the shore with the waves.

He was getting closer and closer to the coast.

Everyone's heart seemed to be burned on fire, and the blood seemed to have stopped flowing.

"What the hell is this thing?" Nakahara Chuuya lowered his voice, his tone a little anxious.

Although Dazai Osamu said "I don't know", he did not forget to speculate in his heart.

In the legend about the Luoyan City textbook, it was mentioned that it contained the forbidden knowledge of the evil gods that existed before the birth of humans.

At that time, Dazai Osamu did not believe this statement easily. He even ranked the credibility of this news as the lowest - because it was too detailed and was not as trustworthy as the vague sea monster statement.

But now, Dazai Osamu began to rethink.

So is Lovecraft a sea monster, or is he…

Evil god?

If he was an evil god, that would explain why their attacks were ineffective.

Mortals and gods are never on the same level.

Other problems arise.

They have high hopes for Raiden, who is about to face the enemy. Will her attack be effective?

No doubt, everyone hopes that she can win smoothly and defeat Lovecraft, and if she succeeds, it means...

She, they, are also gods.

Dazai Osamu took a deep breath and calmly splashed cold water on himself.

The premise is that Lovecraft is indeed an evil god and that Raikage's attack works.

"Dazai, Chuuya," Sakaguchi Ango suddenly said, "Raiden Cinema is here."

They turned their heads and looked behind them - and saw nothing.

No, it's not that I saw nothing, but the speed of lightning was too fast, like a flash of purple lightning in the sky, leaving only a fleeting trace in the human retina.

Several bolts of lightning suddenly arrived!

The helicopter suddenly shook, and Nakahara Chuuya subconsciously mobilized gravity to stabilize the fuselage. However, the next second, a huge force broke through Nakahara Chuuya's defense like a surging wave and slammed the helicopter several meters away!

Attacked by tentacles?!

Nakahara Chuuya was startled, but then he reacted. He looked at the lightning shadow that cut off countless tentacles in mid-air, and was speechless for a moment.

He was sure that it was Lei Dianying who kicked him just now.

Nakahara Chuuya: “…”

With gravity pulling it hard, even Lovecraft's blow couldn't move the helicopter, let alone drift so far.

However, Lei Dianying seemed to be sure that he could stabilize the fuselage, and she didn't know how much strength she used just now. In short, she kicked them away mercilessly.

What a terrifying force.

"Hey, Miss," Nakahara Chuuya gritted his teeth, "What are you planning to do?"

Lei Dianying did not answer his question, but turned to Sakaguchi Ango and said, "Order them to evacuate."

Nakahara Chuuya frowned.

You can't be thinking they're a nuisance, right?

Dazai Osamu held Nakahara Chuuya's shoulder and said, "As expected."

Nakahara Chuuya: "What time is it and you are still telling riddles!"

“She wanted to protect us.”

"Huh? We can't just leave her here alone, can we?"

After Nakahara Chuuya finished speaking, he found that Dazai Osamu did not respond. He looked solemn and a little anxious: "Hey, do you really want to leave her alone? It's too dangerous!"

Dazai Osamu looked straight ahead. Raiden Ying paused briefly and tilted his head to meet his gaze.

"Retreat," Dazai Osamu tightened his hand on Nakahara Chuuya's shoulder, "Ango, Chuuya, let everyone retreat."

"…Are you serious?"

Not only Nakahara Chuuya, but also Sakaguchi Ango asked the same question.

"She is not only protecting us from Lovecraft, but also protecting us from her," said Dazai.

Nakahara Chuuya didn't understand how he could read so much from just one look in Raikage's eyes, but after thinking about it, he decided to follow Dazai Osamu's advice.

"But," Nakahara Chuuya said, "if something unexpected happens, you must rush back immediately."

Dazai Osamu looked deeply at the purple shadow in the sky: "Absolutely."

Ango Sakaguchi was also evacuating nearby combatants.

They need to make enough room for Ray's movie.

Sakaguchi Ango: "Evacuation complete."

"What about the people?"

Sakaguchi Ango was stunned: "We prioritized the evacuation of the people as quickly as possible."

"good."

The sky was dark and covered with thick clouds.

In the observation room, all the communication equipment suddenly burst into a sharp crackling sound, and the image on the display screen was interfered with and kept flickering, making it impossible to see the situation clearly.

"What's going on?!"

"Is the circuit damaged?"

"Mobile signal is affected!"

Sakaguchi Ango stood in front of the instrument and spoke a few words tentatively. There was no response from the earphone, but he already had a guess in his mind.

"Don't rush to repair it. Don't waste your energy." Sakaguchi Ango said and walked out of the room.

His vision suddenly opened up, and he saw a miracle—

A huge purple eye appeared in the sky, and the space was torn apart. A giant hand covered with armor stretched out from it, holding a long sword, and moved in sync with Raikage's movements.

At the same time, a bolt of lightning struck somewhere precisely, making a deafening sound.

Sakaguchi Ango didn't have time to think carefully. Everyone held their breath, stared at the sky, and their heartbeats quickened.

Half of Lovecraft's body was already standing on the shore. His huge weight crushed the nearby buildings, and countless tentacles stabbed at the purple spot with unstoppable force.

Time seemed to be frozen, and the sound of the pointer sliding was slow and harsh.

Lei Dianying closed his eyes slightly.

She felt the expectations.

Gathering thousands of wishes in one, she will abandon her own defense and use all her strength to swing the sword without thinking.

Raidenkage raised his arm and swung it forward.

She was at a high altitude, and should have been so small that the naked eye could not see the sword clearly, but through the hands of the puppet, she reappeared in front of the eyes of the world - what is the so-called thunder.

"Bang——"

The earth is mourning.

The purple light that shot up into the sky tore through space and cut through time. The knife created a huge wave that almost connected the sky and the earth. The sea water crashed heavily to the ground, but the man's figure disappeared.

*

The expected choking and suffocating feeling did not come.

Hoshino Nozomi reacted: He is now a puppet. Although he can simulate breathing normally, it seems that it is okay if he doesn’t breathe?

[Host, the Body of Dependence of the Great Old Ones has been resolved, but your body has been severely damaged.]

Xingye Wang responded.

When swinging the sword, he simply abandoned his own defense, and as a result, he was pulled into the deep sea by the remaining power of the tentacles. The puppet's functions were damaged and urgently needed repair.

In his current condition, it is difficult for him to swim out of the deep sea.

[Host, please conduct a will assessment. ]

【Fail.】

Xingye Wang suddenly said: Continue to burn the luck.

System: [Eh? Why? There is no need for that. I thought you wanted to pretend to die like you did last time, and then leave the high school and pray to other demon gods afterwards...]

This is indeed a good idea.

But he didn't want this.

He wants to go back.

At Hoshino Mochi's insistence, the remaining luck points were used to modify the appraisal results.

This is based on his rational thinking:

He had just struck Fyodor's temporary base with a bolt of lightning, giving a warning to Dazai Osamu and others, so there was a high probability that Fyodor would move his position later.

But if your guess is wrong, you'll be in trouble if you run into them when you go out.

If he doesn't use up his luck, his luck value will only be 23 points. Once he switches to Raiden Shin, he may not be able to switch back to the Raiden movie in time.

The system brought the host back to the safe house and prepared to use the "Doll Making" skill to restore the damaged functions. Unfortunately, the process was not smooth, and it would take some time to fully repair it.

However, Hoshino Mochi was very serious about repairing it.

The system hesitated for a moment and asked: [What do you want to do when you return? ]

Xingye Wang replied: Farewell.
